Hidekazu Kobayashi

**Hidekazu Kobayashi** is the leader of a crime syndicate in Japan the Tetsu Kirazu. Who seeks to acquire the helmet Sam-R-I and assume the mantle.

## Appearance

Hidekazu stand's around 7'4 tall, with a huge and massive muscular build. He wears a black and dark pink sleeveless samurai-like yukata that has ancient Japanese words on the front sides and is open on the torso area to reveal his big muscular abs, bandage wrapped around his lower arms area, dark pink armor plates made of titanium on the higher arms area and on the neck and brown Geta shoes on his feet. He also has huge mane of dark pinkish hair, very pale skin tone while having a red and black Kabuki makeup on his face with black lips along with a small pointy black goatee beard.

## Personality

Hidekazu is overall, an eccentric character, perhaps the most within the 'Tetsu Kirazu' gang(even though he is the mighty leader of them). He seems to honor the samurai code of honor very heavily as he
comically attempts to take his own life after dishonoring himself. As he accepts the blame for nearly anything, even the faults of others, this happens quite often in his appearances. Before he commits seppuku, however, he instinctively uses his Iron Semblance, unintentionally saving his own life in a rather comical way.

Hidekazu also is a person who thinks that 'real men' shouldn't cry or give up. Hidekazu resembles a character in kabuki (traditional Japanese theater). He is a very loud character, and often punctuates his sentences with a loud, dramatic 'YOYOI!'. He has a strange way of speaking, talks rather
slowly and tends to repeat or draw out syllables and words in the manner of kabuki actors.
But still, he is powerful and brutal
leader of the 'Tetsu Kirazu' gang while also showing himself to be a warrior that shows no mercy to anyone. He has also grown a big hatred of Shoji Fuzen, his partner Taro and their companies after they destroyed
his family's famous theater, and he made himself a promise that he would.

## Biography

### Early Life

Hidekazu comes from a family of Kabuki actors and had their own famous theater. But when he was around 17-18 years old and doing one of his best performances in his life, a snobby man named Taro hated and disrespected Hidekazu and his family's show and with permission destroyed Hidekazu and his family's theater and also banished them from the richest parts of Japan.

After all of his beloved family died from starvation and hunger, Hidekazu swore to himself that
he would survive to destroy everyone involved and make sure that he would kill Fuzen and Taro. As the years moved on, he became the leader of the mighty and dangerous Yakuza-like gang, 'Tetsu Kirazu' and made much money in successful robberies and assassination of other street
gangs that was a possible threat to them.

## Powers and Abilities

Hidekazu is an extremely skilled and dangerous criminal, skilled enough to fight foes such as Genki Sanban and even the Japanese Hero SAM-R-I. Originally he was a Kabuki actor and was a skilled dancer but after his family's theater was destroyed and the rest of his family died in poverty Hidekazu became a criminal and rose up the ranks of a Yakuza gang before taking it over and reforming it into the Tetsu Kirazu. Hidekazu has trained extensively to the point his Aura can block an attack as powerful as a bazooka shot and that is *without* the use of his Semblance. While a skilled and deadly fighter Hidekazu can lose focus if his judgement is clouded by rage, especially against those he considered to be responsible for the deaths of his family.

Still, despite the flaw of his temper Hidekazu is not only skilled but immensely strong, fast and with his Aura and Semblance nothing short of a crippling or fatal blow can stop him.

### Weapon: Hageshi Fukushu (Translation: Furious Revenge)

Hidekazu's weapon is called 'Hageshi Fukushu' (Translation:
Furious Revenge). This weapon is a long and impressive looking dark pink
 and black metallic Khakkhara staff that can change to a Sniper Rifle
with a silencer and also can activate a Buzz Saw Blade from the top of
the staff.

It can also activate an burning aura on the top of the staff with some Fire Dust in it and can make powerful attacks
 with it, but also can shoot many other dust like Ice, Lightning and
Wind Dust.

### Semblance: Iron Will

As for Hidekazu's semblance, he can convert the tissues of his entire body into an powerful, black iron-like substance that can be
even stronger and harder than titanium. Hidekazu can also infuse his
powerful iron-like substance into his 'Hageshi Fukushu' that would make the weapon many times powerful than before. And thanks to the black iron-like substance, he can get hit by bazooka shots and mighty
explosions without a scratch.
