Long ago, there was a boy who was born. He was gifted with power unlike any other. He was pushed and trained hard to surpass his own limits and carry his family's legacy for the next generation. His master was a relentless but fair trainer. From a toddler to a nine year old, he was trained mercilessly.

This boy's name was Sawano. He didn't care about the consequences, all he cared about doing was making himself strong enough to surpass anyone that came in his path and carry the family sword, HellBlazer. Much like his uncle, Sawano's uncle is what inspired him to train harder than anyone.

At twelve years old, he was ready to carry the sword but had to face combat without it. As for Sawano, he used his family's fighting technique: "Kabatatshi." On his thirteenth birthday, Sawano got what he always wanted. He wanted an amulet of him and his family so he'd cherish it forever.

At fourteen years old, Sawano was free to leave the dojo after thirteen years of homeschooling of the family's culture. Sawano began to pack everything he was bringing and was going into town. After leaving, he didn't look back not once but looked at his amulet and smiled. After that, he was ready to take on the future.

"Sawano: I've never been out in the city before!"
(As Sawano walks around and laughs, he accidentally bumps into a girl and they both fall down.)
"Girl: Hey! Lamebrain!"
"Sawano: Ow, s-sorry!"
"Girl: Next time watch where you're going. We all have TIME you know?!?"
"Sawano: Ok ok! I'm sorry!"
"Girl: Better be. Now, out of my way, brat."
(She'd walk out of Sawano's way as they both got up and Sawano kept walking around.)
"Sawano: Man, there sure are a lot of places here."
(Later on he stopped and saw a poster.)
"Sawano: Fist To Fist fighting tournament? Winner wins a one hundred thousand yen prize?! Sign me up!"
(He ran off into the grasslands and trained more after taking the poster with him. Later on, it was nighttime and Sawano attended the fighting tournament and sat at the booth.)
"Fighter: Hey check it out..
(They all murmured and laughed at Sawano for entering the tournament.)
"Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen, WELCOME TO THE UNDERGROUND HELLZONE!!"
(Fans were cheering as the show was beginning and the fighters were getting ready for the tournament. Sawano kept his hopes up towards the matches as he was more pumped up than ever until he saw the girl from earlier show up and was displeased with Sawano for attending the fights.)
"Girl: HEY! The hell do you think you're doing here? This is for the pros and worthy fighters, not nobodies like you."
"Sawano: Say what you want to say, I'm entering this tournament!"
"Girl: The moment, I beat you. Don't come back into my city ever again.."
(Later on after a few matches have passed, Sawano faces Tsuka one on one.)

"Announcer: It's gonna get good folks! We got ourselves two young competitors here! On the left is the girl known as Tsuka Tobachi and on the right is Sawano! Two fighters ready to fight from face to face and to fist to fist!"
(The bell rings and G walks towards Sawano as he stands there and does nothing.)
"Oh, it appears Tsuka is going to corner Sawano! What will he do?!"
"Tsuka(Thinking): This kid might be the same height as me, but I sense a little bit of power inside him. This should be easy."
(She'd try to attack him but Sawano dodges out of the corner and into the middle of the ring.)
"Announcer: OOH WHAT A SMOOTH DODGE FROM SAWANO!"
"Competitor: That kid has got speed!"
(Others agreed as Tsuka turned around and was shocked.)
"Tsuka: So you have speed. But no power, this could be difficult."
"Sawano: Don't underestimate me, I may not be known yet. But I am a skilled fighter."
"Tsuka: HA BRING IT!"
(She ran towards him and Sawano blocked and countered every attack.)
"Announcer: And things are starting to pick up! Tsuka's flying at him with everything she's got! Sawano's blocking and dodging every attack she throws!"
(The spectators cheer for the ongoing fight.)
"Sawano(Thinking): I believe it's time for offensive action."
(Tsuka throws a heavy kick but Sawano counters it with his own kick, sending Tsuka across the ring into the steel bars.)
