During World War II, Jinpachi then expanded the corporation into an industrial force, capitalising on military demand due to the ongoing war but after the war and following the direction the company had taken, Jinpachi began regretting his decision, even despising needless conflict. He instead vowed to devote the legacy of his family solely to martial arts. Later on, his son came to meet Kazumi Hachijō who was a fellow student at the Mishima dojo with the two getting married. This led to Jinpachi becoming a grandfather after the birth of Kazuya Mishima. It was said that Jinpachi greatly loved his grandson, Kazuya, raising and training the youngster.
