saiga riki-oh

A man born with superhuman strength that can resist even bullets, much like Kenshiro from Hokuto no Ken. He also heals at a rate much faster than a normal human. He was separated from his younger brother Nachi since childhood and was adopted by the Saiga family. He has a scar in the shape of the Star of David on his right hand, which is the source of his immense strength and skill. This scar also signifies that he is destined to overthrow his real father. Riki's mother was executed for poisoning thirteen infants, and Riki and his brother Nachi escaped from prison before they could be punished. Zhang Shan-Gui stopped Riki from committing suicide in front of his mother's grave and became Riki's sifu, teaching him the ways of Qi Gong. Riki's girlfriend and childhood friend was driven to death by the Yakuza (though the Yakuza only caused her to quickly commit suicide after being kidnapped). This led Riki to murder the Yakuza members, which sent him to jail. He keeps the five bullets that the Yakuza shot into his chest as "souvenirs". After escaping from jail, Riki searches for his brother Nachi.
