It is never revealed why Dahan went to great lengths to capture Maya. They must have realized that kidnapping her would have caused an international incident, but they did so regardless. The only logical reason I can think of is that they believed the benefits of their experiments on her would outweigh any negative consequences. However, what were these experiments? All we know is that they resulted in her being unable to bear any children. So, what if they were researching magical genetics for some purpose? What are your thoughts?

From the page titled "Dahan" on this wiki. It is explained in volume 8 that though Japan and Dahan were not formal allies, they shared an enemy in the Great Asian Union and cooperated militarily. Also, there is no way they would've been unsure of the power of the Yotsuba as they were part of the Ten Master Clans even back then. While the master clans do not take a direct part of governance, they still regulate the affairs of the magical community. Furthermore, the master clans were originally created using genetic manipulation from the different Magical Institutes. So, the Japanese would have seen the experiments on Maya as an attempt by Dahan to learn the secrets of their Magicians, and this would be a direct threat to their interests. Finally, why would a Dahan (which was at war) waste resources to randomly capture and experiment on a girl just to do "immoral things?"

While it may have been the Third World War at the time, Dahan was informally allied with Japan against the Great Asian Alliance. So, by kidnapping Maya they were risking losing that alliance and isolating themselves. Why throw away your only ally in wartime just to perform experiments on a girl?
