Story
A Fighter of the Black Pearl Ring that traveled across the country while storming into and challenging dojos that had earned much renown to head-on duels.
He believes that fighting against powerful opponents is the essence of martial arts, and does not accept anything other than the will to become stronger. However, he tends to avoid challenging dojos of good standing. Rather, he targets corrupt dojos that extort offerings under the pretense of providing protection, smashing them on his travels.
Now, he continues his training in the deepest mountain valleys, hiding from the Suju Kingdom's ransom on his head.
