- Colonel (大佐 Kāneru)
- The founder of the Golan organization and a former Red Beret commando. The Colonel was a master of different killing techniques, such as deadly boomerangs and the Nanto Muon Ken style. He also had extrasensory power to anticipate an opponent's actions by their subtle eye and body movement.
- The Colonel was once a patriotic soldier prior to the nuclear war, but lost faith in his country when he witnessed the debauchery committed by his superiors, who bragged about the power of nuclear warfare. After surviving the apocalypse, the Colonel and his men believed they were chosen by God and aimed to repopulate the world with their own master race which would avoid the mistakes of the past. Kenshirō defeats the Golan and fights the Colonel, first taking out his eyesight using the pressure point Dōmei and then destroying him with the Hokuto Kaikotsu Ken technique.
