Hotblast

In the abandoned ruins of Tokyo's Kurogane Ward-a lawless district sealed off and forgotten by the government-survival belongs to the ruthless. Gangs rule the streets, and at the top sits the Power Syndicate, a brutal organization that has turned the city into a living nightmare.

But the fire they lit has come back to burn them.

Kenji Sato, a fifteen-year-old orphan with the power to control flames, has declared war on the Syndicate. Known on the streets as Hotblast, he strikes from the shadows, tearing through criminal operations with deadly precision. To the people, he's a savior. To the Syndicate, he's a problem that needs to be erased.

As Kenji's crusade escalates, so does the response. The Syndicate unleashes threats after threats upon him. At the same time, a group of elite superhuman students sent to observe Kenji begin to question whether he's a hero... or something far more dangerous.

Hunted by criminals, watched by future heroes, and haunted by his own choices, Kenji stands at the center of a burning city.

And the deeper he goes, the more it is asked:

Is he saving Kurogane Ward... or destroying himself along with it?
