Shin secretly desired [[ | Shin secretly desired [[Kenshirō]]'s fiancee [[Yuria]] since as long as he remembers. After the nuclear war and the death of Master [[Ryuken]], Shin was persuaded by [[Jagi]] to challenge Kenshirō and take Yuria by force. Shin defeated Ken and engraved the seven scars on his chest as a reminder of his defeat. | ||
Afterwards, Shin assumed on the name of '''King''' and expanded his organization, building Yuria the city of [[Southern Cross]] to win her affections. However, his continued atrocities only drove Yuria to commit suicide by leaping off the top floor of Shin's palace. Yuria survived thanks to the intervention of the [[Nanto Gosha Sei]], who arrived on Southern Cross to protect Yuria from [[Raoh]]'s impending invasion. Shin entrusted Yuria to the Goshasei's custody and allowed his reputation to be tarnished by pretending that he was her murderer. | Afterwards, Shin assumed on the name of '''King''' and expanded his organization, building Yuria the city of [[Southern Cross]] to win her affections.
