Maintaining its Martok disguise, the Changeling led the newly completed Klingon flagship the Negh'var along with a cloaked fleet to Deep Space 9 on 49011.4. (DS9: The Way of the Warrior)
Later that year, Martok was given command of the Bird-of-Prey IKS Rotarran with orders to locate the missing cruiser IKS B'Moth, however, having been confined for over a year, he was hesitant about his command ability. With the Rotarran's crew already low on morale due to a string of defeats against the Dominion, Martok requested Worf join him as his first officer. During the mission, Martok was extremely cautious in his command of the ship, deliberately avoiding opportunities to engage the Jem'Hadar in battle. The situation came to a head when the crew of the Rotarran nearly mutinied, but due to Worf's challenge of Martok's leadership, this was averted. The ensuing fight was very much one-sided in Worf's favor; at one point, the bridge crew began chanting Worf's name, expecting him to be victorious. Worf pinned Martok against a console and pointed his d'k tahg centimeters from Martok's chest. At that moment, the two men exchanged glances, and Worf sensed that the warrior spirit within his commanding officer was returning.
