The Fang Clan (牙一族 Kiba Ichizoku, also known as the Kiba Clan or simply the Fangs) are a family of mountain bandits who pattern themselves after a wolf pack. The gang are masters of the Kazan Gunrō Ken (Huashan Wolf Pack Fist) and other Kazan Kenpo styles.

Kenshiro and Rei are hired by Mamiya to protect her village against the Fangs. When Mamiya's brother, Kō, is slaughtered by the Fangs, Ken and Rei put aside their differences to annihilate the clan. Boss Fang manages gets a hold of Rei's missing sister, Airi, and takes Mamiya captive as well, hoping to use them as leverage against the two masters.
