Unfortunately, Shito's description did not mean much to Batiatus- in his era, at least according to the mun's questionable interweb research, he wouldn't have ever heard of what was either a tiny fishing village in the distant East, if it even existed yet. What he could tell from Shito's appearance, however, was that he most likely hailed from somewhere in the East- the gladiatorial trade tended to expose Batiatus to wide variety of ethnic groups, and he was educated, so knew his geography. "Is Tokyo a city in the distant East? Or, what would be considered the distant east, in relation to Rome?"
