Toki: Difference between revisions

|allegiance=[[Kenshirō]]

: The second of the four Hokuto brothers, {{nihongo|'''Toki'''|トキ}} is a pacifist who seeks to use Hokuto Shinken as a healing art, Toki's self-made technique of {{nihongo|''Hokuto Ujō Ken''|北斗有情拳||"Big Dipper Humane Fist"}} is adept at both healing and destroying. When he kills someone with his style, his adversaries experience intense pleasure before their deaths, instead of horrifying pain. According to [[Kenshiro]], Toki had the most elegant style of the four brothers and was the favored successor to the Hokuto Shinken style.  

: Toki, along with Raoh and Kenshiro, is originally from the Land of Asura, where he has two additional blood siblings named [[Kaioh]] and [[Sayaka]]. Toki and Raoh are actual blood brothers; Raoh and Toki were orphaned when they were children and adopted by [[Ryuken]], who was seeking a student to train. Originally, Ryuken only trained Raoh, while Toki watched on. When a hunter killed Toki's pet dog [[Koko]], Toki demonstrates his fighting ability by pummelling the hunter relentlessly. Realizing that Toki has learned to fight by merely watching his brother, Ryuken began training Toki as well. At that point, Raoh made Toki promise that if he ever followed the wrong path, Toki will try to stop him.

: During the nuclear war, Toki was exposed to the nuclear fallout while forced-shutting the jammed doors of the bomb shelter where Ken and [[Yuria]] escaped to. Toki survived for two weeks without food and water, but the nuclear exposure turned his hair white and left him terminally ill. Thus, Toki renounces the succession to the Hokuto Shinken style and becomes a wandering doctor, easing the people's ills with the time he has left.  

: Toki wanders into a village ravaged by disease and uses his powers to heal everyone. The village becomes known as the "[[Village of Miracles]]" and Toki is worshipped as a messiah. However, Toki is taken captive by Raoh's army and imprisoned at [[Cassandra]], while [[Amiba]] impersonates him in an attempt to destroy Toki's reputation after a previous confrontation.

: Kenshiro rescues Toki from the prison stronghold and the two join forces against Raoh. Toki intervenes during Kenshiro and Raoh's first battle at [[Mamiya|Mamiya's]] village as they verge on killing one another. Sometime later, Toki attempts to fulfil his childhood promise and prevent Raoh from using Hokuto Shinken for his own ambition. Despite a heroic effort, Toki finds his strength has weakened by illness and he is unable to defeat his brother. However, his life is spared by Raoh in a rare act of mercy. Toki spends his few remaining days healing the sick until a meeting with [[Ryuga]] leads to his death. As he embraces death, Toki tells Kenshiro to "turn sorrow into anger".

: While his brother [[Raoh| Raoh's]] "hard style" meets force with greater force, Toki's [[Jū no Ken|Soft Fist]] turns the opponent's power against them with grace and dexterity. It's because of this natural talent that Toki was originally the favorite to become successor.

: During his showdown with Raoh, Toki revealed he also knew Raoh's [[Gō no Ken|Hard Fist]] style, which he had sealed away until such time. However, Raoh realizes that Toki has in fact pressed the [[Keiraku Hikō|Sekkatsu-kō]] vital point, temporarily boosting his strength in order to imitate his brother's style.
