Ata (The Peerless)

## Introduction

Ata is a bloodthirsty and selfish samurai who abandoned his princess and betrayed Daruma. He seeks nothing but destruction and is focused on his mission. Ata is ruthless enough to wipe out planets without a second thought, and also extremely cunning. He is incredibly confident in his skills, and is willing to fight anyone. Even superior numbers do not scare him, but he is smart enough to know when an enemy is stronger than him. Despite being skilled and intelligent, Ata has proven to be impatient and overconfident, traits that sometimes must be reigned in by Niri. Despite his destructive tendencies, he does have a sense of honor. He politely greets Daruma upon reuniting, and respectfully bows and asks for forgiveness over abandoning his responsibilities. Additionally, he believes that, above all else, a samurai should be courageous and strong, and he looks down at those who do not, deeming them samurai only in appearance but not in spirit, but he can still catch when an opponent is improving. Above all, Ata's loyalty to Kala is what drives his actions. He follows whatever orders Kala gives to the point that he would slay his subordinates without hesitation.

## Character Details

Ata was once a student under Daruma and trained with him to become a powerful samurai. However, an incident occurred where Ata betrayed Daruma. The extent of the betrayal was immense as Daruma ends up losing his original body and confined to the body of a cat and the latter losing his princess. Ata leaves the Kongo-Yasha School to join the Ususama School under Kala for his own self-interests. While serving under Kala, he would also destroy many planets. Ata also meets Ikkaku and his six other siblings. Ata begins to collaborate with Kala and Ikkaku on getting the Mandala’s Box – a tool that has the power to destroy the entire galaxy.
