John Yakuza

# **"Now, if you're ready... Step the fuck up. It's time to die!" - John Yakuza in the English Dub of Yakuza**

John Yakuza, also known as John Taxi Driver or John Agent, is the main protagonist of the PEAKuza/Like a W/Ryu FIRE Gotoku franchise. He is the Fourth Man On The Chair of the Tojo Club, a former orphanage manager (Batgos moment???), a former real esate agent, as well as a retired taxi driver. This man's got a hell of a resume.

His legendary feats regarding his servitude in the Tojo Club, and his rad dragon tatoo, have earned him the title "Dragon of Dojima". Basically, he's cool as fuck.

## Pecking Order

According to the hit song Judgement (not to be confused with RGG Studio's game franchise, Judgment) John Yakuza is stated to be capable of "Breaking The World". This undeniable proof lands him into a respectable position in the pecking order, notably being able to No-Diff DIO.

His signature Tiger Drop also "negates all damage", bolstering his insane durability.

John Yakuza is the apex of the Z tier (above Top Tier), allowing him to effortlessly dismantle a variety of powerful characters (I.E: 1 Million Chronosapiens, Hydrogen Bomb, Minecraft Steve). However, anyone who is in God Tier or above is capable of defeating him.

## Abilities

Overall an absurdly strong guy. In his base level John Yakuza already has beyond superhuman capabilities; I mean, the guy's able to pick up pieces of furniture several times larger than himself and swing that shit around like a bat. His Quickstep move grants him brief invulnerability, and his Tiger Drop will send your internal organs into higher dimensions. And let's not even get started on what he can do once he gets that Heat Gauge up.

John Yakuza has like, 1000 different Heat Actions so I'm not about to go over all of them right now. But let's look at a few highlights. First off, Essence of Terror. He basically fucking teleports when he triggers that Heat Action, which proves that he's well and able to move faster than light. There's also the Electrical Panel Finisher, which activates when John Yakuza picks up a metal box and SLAMS it onto a poor guy's head, dealing Multiversal+ damage and electrocuting them in the process. And the guy is practically begging for John Yakuza not to do it, it's fucking brutal.

In addition to his electrifying ingenuity and phenomenal attack power[1], John Yakuza has durability in spades. Even if you're somehow able to get his health down to critical levels, he can just pause, go to the menu, select "Staminan Royale" to heal up, and you'll be back to square one. Hell, maybe he'll even snack on a Heat-charging meal too, and he'll get right back to hauling your ass. And it's not like he'll ever run out of money to buy all his food, he's made billions from his real estate ventures.[2]

## Biography

### ***"I'm like the lowest level of Yakuza... I'm a... YAKUZA 0."***

John Yakuza was born at a very young age. Crazy, I know. His parents were murdered by a man named Shintaro Kazama, making him an orphan. His conscience getting the better of him, Kazama took John Yakuza into his orphanage- Sunflower From PvZ Orphanage. There, he met people who would become some of his closest friends- the most notable being 10 Years in The Joint Man (AKA Joint Man). As the years went on, John Yakuza and Joint Man discovered that their father figure was actually a part of the Yakuza- specifically, the Tojo Club. They tried to convice Kazama to let them in, resulting in them getting the shit beaten out of them. Even through that, John Yakuza kept pestering Kazama, and the man eventually gave in. The next day, John and Joint Man would find themselves at the doorstep of the Dojima Family- a Tojo Club subsidiary.

As low-ranking hooligan among the Dojima, John Yakuza was given an appropiately insignificant job- collecting debts for a loan shark. One night, he had to exert extreme force for a man to cough up some cash. After leaving him beaten on the ground, John went out drinking with his boy Joint Man, only to hear on the news that the man John Yakuza beat up was actually found DEAD on the Empty Place- the location John collected the man's debt from.

Next thing he knows, John's summoned to the Dojima office by his three superiors- Ripoff Dragon Guy, Kuze, and Awano. Naturally, they accuse him of the murder, to which John Yakuza instantly denies. They find out that the man was killed by a *gunshot* wound, which gives John peace of mind, as he would never use a gun on a civilian. Despite his innocence, his superiors demanded that John turn himself in anyway for the convienience of the Dojima Family. In response, John Yakuza said, "Fuck off."
