After rescuing Mamiya from [[Medicine City]], Rei learned that she was once one of [[Yuda|Yuda's]] captives before she escaped and became the leader of her village. Swearing to avenge Mamiya's honor, Rei dedicated his remaining days to tracking down Yuda. However, Yuda managed to elude his pursuit, leaving Rei's struggle in vain. This was until Toki extended Rei's lifespan for another day by striking the vital point ''[[Shinreidai]]'', which had the side-effect of transforming his hair white. Rei entered the final showdown with Yuda, and after a treacherous fight, he defeated Yuda with the technique ''[[Hishō Hakurei]]'', the Soaring White Splendor. After the battle, Rei tells Kenshiro to live on as the hope of the new world before spending his final night alone in a hut to spare his friends and family from his gruesome death. Afterwards, Kenshiro ignites the hut as a funeral pyre for his fallen friend. | After rescuing Mamiya from [[Medicine City]], Rei learned that she was once one of [[Yuda|Yuda's]] captives before she escaped and became the leader of her village.

==[[Sōkoku no Garō|Rei's Side Story]]== | |||
In Rei's sidestory taking place before the events of Hokuto no Ken, he is searching the wastelands for his sister and for the man with Seven Scars when he encounters a young bandit named [[Yū (Rei Gaiden)|Yū]], and hears about a city called [[Asgarzul]], where many women are taken. Believing that Airi may have been taken there, he goes to Asgarzul, accompanied by Yū. The city is a sanctuary for women, who are often targeted and victimized in the wastelands, where they are free and protected. Rei meets the Queen of Asgarul, [[Eva]], and spends the night with her, only to find her dead the next morning. | |||
Rei is believed to be responsible for her murder, as wounds associated with Nanto Suicho Ken are found on her corpse, and Rei is forced to go on the run from the city's elite guardians, the [[Valkyries]], led by [[Frieda]]. Rei is found by [[Zan]], a fellow practicioner of Nanto Seiken, on the West Side of Asgarzul, where Zan works as a bodyguard. Zan reveals his plans to take over Asgarzul and Rei is unable to stop him as he and his men take over the city. Rei is at least able to save the lives of Frieda and the other Valkyries. | |||
Rei eventually discovers from Eva's handmaiden that Yū is a girl, the adoptive younger sister of Eva, who Yū greatly admired and looked up to. When the Valkyries are about to be killed by Zan's men, Rei intervines and again saves them. Zan dispatches [[Garai]] and [[Kepel]] to kill him, but both are killed, and Zan faces Rei himself. Zan is defeated and dealt a final blow by a mysterious warrior, [[Rima (Rei Gaiden)|Rema of Alkaid]], who engages in a fight with Rei. Rema demonstrates superhuman strength and speed in his fighting, but the battle is interrupted by the coming forces of [[Rofū]], Rei's master in Nanto Suicho Ken, and Eva's real killer. | |||
The forces of Rofū and Yuda, who also desires Asgarzul, and Rofū singlehandedly wipes out Yuda's army and forces him to flee. Even Rei is easily defeated by him and Rofū takes the city. While Yū is left in the company of Frieda, Rei hears that his sister was taken to a man named [[Saw|Sou]] and goes to find him. Rei soon realizes that this was a trap to lure him away from the city while Rofū's men took the women who Rei was protecting, including Yū. the princess and heir to Asgarzul. | |||
As Rei heads back to the city, Frieda fights Rofū's soldiers, and reveals to be a biologically engineered human weapon, much like Rema, who arrives on the scene and the two of them fight Rofū. Meanwhile, Rei is confronted by a vengeful Zan in the desert, holding a woman believed to be Airi hostage to keep Rei at bay. <span style="font-size:13px;">Shuh arrives and exposes that the woman is not Airi. Rei then easily kills Zan, and he and Shuh go to Asgarzul, only to find that Frieda and Rema have been defeated and that Yū has been taken by Rofū. </span> | |||
: | <span style="font-size:13px;">Shuh reveals that the scar on Rofū's face that is hidden by the mask he wears was left there by his wife, </span>[[Linley]]<span style="font-size:13px;">, who battled Rofū in a battle on the eve of the nucear war and was killed by her husband. Rei goes off to confront Rof</span>ū, who has taken Yū to the [[Nanto Seitoden]], leaving Frieda and Rema back at the city to recover. Rei and Shuh show up and Rei fights Rofū in a second battle for succession of Nanto Suicho Ken as Yū, the entire Nanto Roku Sei Ken, and even Ken-Oh look on. Rei battles Rofū with the fist that he had learned from Linley and his style fueled by love for others, led by the Star of Justice, clashes with Rofū's fist of rage. Rei eventually manages to defeat his master with the [[Hishō Hakurei]]. Before dying, Rofū tells Yū that he killed Eva at her request so that he could fulfill his destiny of fighting Rei and so that Yū could have the throne of Asgarzul. Rei and Yū bid their farewells and Yū goes on to be queen of Asgarzul while Rei continues his search. | ||
