Yuki was an undead ghost assassin and a legendary protector of Tokyo. When Yakuza-caused violence spilled onto the streets, Yuki sensed it and raised from her coffin. Proclaiming that she would restore peace to Tokyo, she went after the focus of violence - Hit-Monkey and his spirit advisor Bryce. Believing that they wre responsible for all the killing (while they were in fat the targets of it), Yuki prepared to kill Monkey and consume Bryce's soul, but they managed to flee. During their escape the Monkey was spotted by another one of many gangsters who werre after the ¥150,000,000 yen bounty on him and forced to evade both him and Yuki at the same time. Eventually the gangster's car crashed, killing him. Yuki realized that Monkey was not a villain but a hero and promised him her help, should he ever call upon her in the future.[1]

On a night of the Prime Minister election, an angry crowd gathered in front of the Tokyo's tallest and most defended building. Yuki appeared above the crowd and announced that she would keep the peace, joining the Silver Samurai who swore to do the same.[2]
