Since when did Chinese made any claims on mainland Japan. Probability of China starting a war with Japan is zero, possibility of Japan getting annihilated between US-China thug of war is very high. Question again is, why would they in their right mind would chose to be part of this war.
China claims Senkaku Islands. If they invade Taiwan and take it successfully. They will keep on going to their next target. The U.S. will get involved because China wants half of the Pacific Ocean in the long term. That is their goal. You already see their fishing fleets fishing in South America illegally.

Chinese coast guard ships approach Japanese vessels near Senkakus
NAHA/BEIJING – Four Chinese coast guard ships tried to approach a Japanese-registered private vessel in Japanese territorial waters around the Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea on Monday.
Japan Coast Guard patrol ships secured the safety of the 997-ton Shinsei Maru and warned the Chinese ships to leave the waters.
The intrusion by Chinese government ships into Japanese waters around the Senkaku chain was the second this year, following one on Jan. 10. The Japanese-administered islands in Okinawa Prefecture are claimed by China, which calls them Diaoyu.
Hurts China more than the U.S. Nuclear Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Australia, etc. China will not be able to expand.If USA wants to break the nuclear non-proliferation agreement, we don't mind.
We can also let all countries and organizations that hate the USA possess nuclear weapons.
