Thanks to the DUer who mentioned this book about two weeks ago. I got one at the library and it is an amazing story.

The Japanese captain prayed to sink a ship, kaiten's cried when they couldn't commit suicide by ramming their little subs into the ship. Three fortune tellers wanred that evil would befall the ship. The ship was carrying parts of the atomic bomb that fell on Hiroshima. Pre-Karama? What a tragic fate for those poor men.
