==History==

Originally, Nanto Seiken was the fighting style used by [[Shin|Shin]], the first major antagonist in the series. According to the backstory provided, Nanto Seiken, along with Hokuto Shinken, are the two most powerful assassination styles in Chinese martial arts. It follows a different principle from Hokuto Shinken, in which it has the power to destroy an enemy's body from the outside through powerful stabbing techniques, as opposed to Hokuto Shinken's use of the body's [[Keiraku Hikō]] to destroy the enemy from within. While [[Kenshiro]] and Shin were forbidden to ever fight each other, Shin broke the rules by defeating Kenshiro in order to claim [[Yuria]] (Ken's fiancée) for himself. The first story arc centers around Kenshiro's quest to reclaim Yuria from Shin.

After Shin's death, several other Nanto styles and fighters were introduced in order to expand the story beyond the initial ten chapters. These styles, such as ''[[Nanto Muon Ken ]]''and ''[[Nanto Suichō Ken]]'', are established to be sects of the main Nanto Seiken school. The organization structure of Nanto Seiken is eventually established in manga chapter 80. There are said to be 108 sects of Nanto Seiken, with the six primary branches being the Nanto Roku Seiken.
