Master of {{nihongo|''[[Kazan Kakuteigi]]''|華山角抵戯||"Huashan Horn Wrestling"}} style. He is the patriarch of the [[Kiba Ichizoku]]'' and known as "Father" (oyaji) to his sons. He places so much value into his own "children" that when a group of them are killed, he laments their deaths and retaliates by murdering a group of peasants as vengeance. However, he is not above sacrificing his sons to save his own life, arguing that as long as he lives he can propagate their species. | ||
: During his war with [[Mamiya]] and [[Mamiya's Village|her village]], he clashes with Kenshiro and Rei who had been hired as mercenaries to protect the townsfolk. He tries to make [[Kenshiro]] and [[Rei]] kill each other by taking [[Airi]], and then [[Mamiya]], as hostages. Kenshiro and Rei fool him into releasing the women by faking their own deaths. | |||
: Ultimately, Kiba Daioh faces off with Kenshiro and uses the ''Kazan Kogai Koho'' technique to turn his body into steel. Kenshiro counteracts the technique by striking a vital point that changes Kiba Daioh's body into mush, and demonstrates this by beating him with a iron girder. Kiba Daioh attempts to throw an explosive, however, as Kenshiro's attack has the added effect of stiffening the muscles, Kiba Daioh finds himself unable to release the bomb. After losing his arm to the explosion, he charges blindly into Kenshiro's ''[[Ganzan Ryōzan Ha]]'' and meets his end. | |||
