-Determined to bring change to the Land of Asura someday, Rock trained himself to become an expert knife fighter, forming a band with six other horse-riders, hoping he would fight alongside [[Raoh]], the supposed savior of Asura. When the rivers of Asura turned red, Rock and his men began their activities, believing that Raoh has finally arrived. Rock and his men encountered [[Kenshirō]] in a ruined village before returning to his home village. There, Rock was reunited with his father on his deathbed, who informed him that Raoh did come to Asura, but rather Kenshiro, the man who defeated Raoh. After receiving Raoh's promise pendant from his father, Rock formed the "Army of Raoh" with his men. In order to save the captured men of his village, Rock and his companions invaded the camp where they were held and defeated [[Bruce]]' army. When he he was unable to deal with [[Xie]] shortly after, Kenshiro appeared again, this time to save him. However, instead of showing gratitude, Rock rejected Ken's aid and refused to be associated with him in any form.
-Sometime afterward, Rock and his men headed to the Village of the Western Desert after hearing of an attack. He founded out that the villagers were being held captive by [[Gyamon]] and his gang, who told Rock that he would liberated the villagers if Rock agreed to eliminate Kenshiro. Rock tried to trap Kenshiro by leading him to a narrow gorge, pinning him under a large rock. Rock then returned to Gyamon's lair to receive the hostages, but Gyamon did not fulfill his half of the bargain, trapping Rock and his companions inside a large steel cage instead, while keeping the villagers from himself. After being saved by Kenshiro once again, Rock was convinced Kenshiro was indeed the savior of Asura after all.

+: Rock is a character who only appears in the ''Hokuto no Ken 2'' anime TV series. The leader of a horse-riding gang of cowboys from the [[Land of Asura]], Rock is the son of [[Kosem]] and the older brother of [[Chain]]. Rock originally followed in his father's footsteps of being a pacifist, but rejected this ideal after witnessing the murder of his mother at the hands of an Asura warrior while protecting a child who ended up being captured anyway.
-Rock and his companions then served as informants to [[Jūkei]]. When [[Hyō]]'s Royal Armored Corps attacked a village, Rock and his men asked Jukei if they could defend the lives of the defeated villagers. Jukei revealed that Rock and his men had no chance against Hyo, who was actually Kenshiro's real brother, whose memories was sealed by Jukei years ago. In spite of Jukei's warning, Rock and his men prepared to ambush Hyo's royal armored corps at an abandoned village. Rock's men were killed one by one by Hyo's forces, leaving only Jose and himself. Jose fought Hyo by himself, allowing the now fatally wounded Rock to escape by himself on his horse. With all six of his companions, Rock was able to be reunited with Kenshiro one last time and inform him about Hyo, but died before he could reveal the true relationship between Kenshiro and Hyo.
