Ep. 185: American Ninja

Zo finds himself in the Philippines where he’s there to enjoy the scenery, snack on adobo with lumpia and visit some Army buddies. While there he gets wind of a tale regarding a soldier from a nearby base that nobody really gets along with because he keeps to himself. At the same time it’s said that this guy has some amazing hand to hand combat skills and moves like no one has ever seen. He seems to effortlessly dodge bullets and strikes with incredible speed and efficiency. From the way others talked about this unusual soldier you’d think that they were talking about a shinobi, but who ever heard of an American Ninja?
