Jagi

The second-youngest of the four Hokuto brothers, Jagi (ジャギ) was looked down on for his underhand tactics, which dictated victory at any cost, such as relying on a shotgun or spitting needles. His desire to cheat was only rivalled by his contempt for Kenshirō, his younger adoptive brother. Jagi believed that younger siblings must respect their elders and that it would be disgraceful for a younger brother to surpass him.

Hearing the news that Kenshirō was named successor, an outraged Jagi confronted him and ordered him to step down. Failing that, Jagi tried to kill him but was defeated, only to be spared at the last moment. Escaping with a disfigured head, Jagi had to use metal implants to relieve the swelling and adopted a helmet to hide his now hideous face. He exacted his revenge by manipulating Shin of the Nanto Sei Ken into defeating Kenshirō and kidnapping his fiancée Yuria. Shin had always loved Yuria from afar, and Jagi convinced him that Kenshirō wasn't worthy of protecting her in the violent wasteland.

Jagi also attempted to defame Kenshirō by impersonating him, intentionally scarring himself to replicate the seven scars on his chest. He terrorized villages in Kenshirō's name, killed Rei's parents and kidnapped his younger sister Airi, selling her into a life of slavery. Kenshirō finally caught up with Jagi who was outmatched and outfought. He even tried his own style of Nanto Seiken, which Kenshirō remarked was 'slow' and an insult to Shin's style. Kenshirō insisted that an ugly death befitted Jagi, before obliterating him once and for all.

After his death, Jagi is usually unaccounted for in the manga when the Hokuto Brothers are mentioned.
