Kiba Daiō (牙大王, "Great Fang King", also known as "Boss Fang" or the "King of Kiba"): The leader of the Fang Clan. Master of Kazan Kakuteigi (華山角抵戯, "Huashan Horn Wrestling") style. His Kazan Kogai Koho allows him to turn his body to hard steel. He is known as "Father" (oyaji) to his underlings. He places so much value into his own "children" that when a group of them are killed, he retaliates by killing a group of peasants as vengeance. He tries to make Kenshiro and Rei fight each other, by kidnapping Airi and then taking Mamiya as hostages. However, Kenshiro and Rei fool him into releasing the women by faking their own deaths. Ultimately, Kenshiro confronts him and kills him by striking a vital point that turns Kiba Daioh's steel body into rust, before finishing him with Ganzan Ryōzan Ha.

1986 movie

In the theatrical movie, Kiba Daioh makes an extended cameo as a rival warlord who defends his territory against Raoh. He massacres part of Raoh's army, until he is killed by Raoh's Gōshō Ha technique.

Trivia

Kiba Daiō was originally nameless in the manga. The introduction of Vol. 5 of the Jump Comics edition referred to his character as "Chief of the Kiba Clan" (牙一族・族長, Kiba Ichizoku Zokuchō). The name Kiba Daiō was introduced for the character in the Hokuto no Ken television series and has been used in later subsequent media since. In the guidebook Kyūkyoku Kaisetsu - Seikimatsu Haō Retsuden, he is given the English title of the King of Kiba (also used in the Punch Mania arcade game). In the english version of Hokuto Musō he is instead called Boss Fang.
