I'm not sure you can work in a different country with Tier 2 as it's no longer a UK immigration issue, so you'll have to apply for Japan's Tier 2 equivalent visa.
Even though you're with the same company, but it's not the same country!

Thank you for your response.

Sure, I understand that for Japan I will apply fir new visa. I have no question regard Japan visa.

My question is regard UK visa. Will it be valid after my return? Maybe I must stop it before relocation? I can't find anything about this situation.

Once you stop working in the UK, your sponsor is obliged to inform HO and your visa will be curtailed/cancelled. You will then only be able to apply for a Tier 2 General visa 12 months after you have left the UK.
