Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Prologue

The main character birth age 737, is a time of relative peace across the Earth. In a remote mountain village nestled deep within a dense forest, a young boy named Mori was born into a family with a strong martial arts tradition. This village, known as Tatsugami, had a long history of training fighters and practicing martial arts, though it was secluded from the modern world. The people of Tatsugami lived in harmony with nature, and their skills were honed not for fame or fortune, but for survival and the joy of challenging one's limits.

Character Description:

Name: Mori 

Age: 5 (Introduction), 11 (Current) 

Appearance:

Mori has a striking resemblance to Dan Kuso from Bakugan, with spiky, chestnut-brown hair that sticks out in all directions and lively amber eyes that reflect his passion for fighting. He typically wears a red martial arts jacket over a black undershirt, along with dark green pants. His jacket is adorned with a yellow sash tied around his waist. Mori's expression often carries a determined grin, and his carefree attitude is complemented by a pair of fingerless gloves that he wears at all times. His physique is lean and muscular for his age, showing the signs of intense training since early childhood.

Backstory: 

Age 5: 

Mori's love for fighting began at the tender age of five, during a fateful day in the forest near his home. His father, Daichi, was a skilled martial artist who taught at the local dojo. On that day, Mori was out in the forest with Daichi, collecting firewood, when a massive bear suddenly appeared, its eyes glinting with aggression. As the bear lunged toward them, Mori's father quickly stepped in front of him, standing tall and unwavering in the face of danger.

Daichi took a deep breath, his aura radiating a calm strength. He rushed forward, dodging the bear's claws with incredible speed. His movements were precise and powerful, as he delivered a series of devastating blows, forcing the beast back until it eventually retreated into the woods, defeated. Young Mori watched with wide eyes, captivated by his father's skill and bravery. The sight of his dad fending off the bear so effortlessly lit a fire inside him, sparking an unyielding passion for fighting.

From that day on, Mori idolized his father and would mimic his movements, imitating punches and kicks in the yard. His father, seeing Mori's enthusiasm, began to teach him the basics of martial arts. Though he was young, Mori's dedication was already evident; he would spend hours practicing each day, pushing himself to keep up with his father. Fighting wasn't just a hobby for him—it was his dream.

Age 7:

By the time Mori was seven, he was already training regularly at his father's dojo alongside other children in the village. He quickly stood out, not because of any exceptional natural talent, but because of his sheer determination and love for combat. He never backed down from a challenge, often sparring with kids much older and stronger than himself. The dojo had a philosophy that fighting was a form of self-expression, and Mori embraced this wholeheartedly. His eagerness to learn and fearless attitude earned him the respect of his peers and the attention of his instructors.

At home, Mori continued to train with his father, who began to teach him more advanced techniques. Daichi would often remind him that martial arts wasn't just about winning; it was about finding joy in every fight, whether he won or lost. Mori absorbed these lessons eagerly, believing that every defeat was an opportunity to improve. He loved the feeling of getting stronger, the rush of pushing his limits, and the thrill of a tough fight. To Mori, fighting was freedom—it was what made him feel most alive.

Age 9:

When Mori was nine, tragedy struck Tatsugami. A group of bandits attacked the village, seeking to raid its resources. The villagers, many of whom were trained fighters, rose up to defend their home. Mori's father was at the forefront of the battle, facing off against the bandits' leader—a towering, ruthless man who had terrorized many settlements before. Mori watched from the sidelines as his father fought valiantly, and although Daichi emerged victorious, he was severely wounded during the confrontation.

Seeing his father injured stirred something deep within Mori. He was no longer just passionate about fighting for fun—he realized that he wanted to become strong enough to protect those he cared about. Daichi encouraged his son to keep pursuing his passion, reminding him of the importance of the spirit within every warrior. 

With his father's words in mind, Mori continued to push himself even harder, training with the village's senior martial artists. His fighting style became a blend of traditional techniques and his own unique flair, incorporating acrobatics and unconventional moves inspired by his natural agility. Mori would often spend his days running up the cliffs surrounding Tatsugami or climbing tall trees to enhance his balance and reflexes, turning the forest into his personal training ground.

Age 11 (Current): 

Now at the age of eleven, Mori's skills have grown considerably. He has become one of the strongest young fighters in the village, known for his energetic style and boundless enthusiasm. His love for combat has never faded; if anything, it has only intensified over the years. He still seeks out challenges wherever he can find them, always eager to learn from each encounter. His goal is to become the greatest fighter in the world—not for fame or glory, but because he genuinely loves the thrill of battle. 

His playful and carefree attitude often disguises the depths of his determination, as Mori is willing to go to great lengths to test his limits. He often dreams of traveling beyond the village and meeting fighters from distant lands. Although Tatsugami is a peaceful place, the world beyond its borders is full of mysteries and powerful opponents, and Mori yearns to experience it all firsthand.
