Jū no Ken

Revision as of 22:38, 29 July 2015 by Endofcentury (talk | contribs)

Jū no Ken (柔の拳 Fist of Gentleness) is a form of Hokuto Shinken created by Toki. In contrast to his brother Raoh's Gō no Ken (Fist of Strength) which meets force with even greater force, this style uses deft movement and agility to turn an opponent's power against them. It was said that Toki's technical ability was the greatest of the four Hokuto brothers, which is why he was favorite to become successor until his radiation sickness.
