Summary[]

South's introduction to violence (manga)

South's introduction to violence

Born Minami Terano, South Terano grew up in Rio de Janeiro with his bedridden mother; his only childhood toy was an old piano. A gang leader named Dino functioned as his mother's caregiver and a surrogate father. He introduced Terano, a Japanese native, to Brazilian gang life at the age of five. Dino groomed Terano into violence by ordering him to shoot men he considered his enemies. For this killing, Terano received money and bought new shoes, thus learning the benefits of violence. After Terano's success, Dino dubs him "South".

Around a year later, in 2007, South is released from detention; in the same year, he, alongside the Haitani Brothers, Mocchi, and Shion, created Rokuhara Tandai. South expresses his desire to recruit Kakucho into Rokuhara Tandai. Ran replies that Kakucho will not listen to him; his involvement in Tenjiku only came about under Izana's bidding. Laughing in reply, South assures Ran that he is good at negotiating. South's form of "negotiating" comes in the form of brutally beating Kakucho in an alley. As he lays on the ground, beaten and bruised, Kakucho admits his defeat to a grinning South; subsequently, he joins Rokukara Tandai.

As the Brahman duo dodges South's strong blows, Kakucho concludes that South will emerge victorious, no matter his opponents' strength. South's violent nature will reign supreme.
