When Kenshirō and the Hokuto Army fought against the Imperial Army, Solia began mobilized his entire unit. Solia challenged Kenshirō with the intention of eliminating the Hokuto rebels. Although, Solia managed to overpower Ken at first, he ended up losing his left arm when Ken countered his "Ring of Destruction" technique. Solia continued fighting with his remaining arm, but was eventually defeated by Kenshirō. Solia proclaimed that he sacrificed his life for Falco and the Gold Light -a particular present also in the Sega Genesis' videogame Hokuto no Ken and on its western port Last Battle-, and then he died, probably committing suicide as he explodes in a hail of light. The victory was not without cost for Ken, since the battle with Solia prevented him to rejoin Hokuto's Army against Falco and Hazu Harn had meanwhile killed himself trying to oppose the General.
TV series
In the anime version of the story, Solia fought Ken at Mamiya's home village after leading an invasion there. He also took Falco's place as the murderer of the village elder. He never mentions Falco during battle and when he dies, he proclaims that the Tentei was the one who ordered the destruction of Hokuto.
