“	You, too, old man, want to claim my throne?! I own it by birthright! No one shall take it from me!	”
–Prince demonstrating his hunger for power.

Prince is a character that is first mentioned by Shogun's bodyguards. He was the former ruler of Ivory City, before he was assassinated by his own warlord, Shogun. His story is explained upon in the Special Edition in Sensei's story, Old Wounds.

Storyline

Prince was the ruler of his empire, the Ivory City. He met Widow, and she fell in love with him. Prince, however, rejected her. Unexpectedly for him, this breaks Widow's heart so badly that it caused her to become obsessed for revenge and manipulating Shogun to overthrow him. He was kidnapped by Butcher, a bandit hired by Shogun. Due to luck, he manages to escape. He also learned that his soldier is trained by a certain Hermit.

However, Prince is still not safe, as he is chased by Lynx, an assassin hired by Hermit. Fortunately, he bumps into Sensei, and he screams for his help. Sensei responds by fighting Lynx and defeating him, saving Prince's life. Prince thanks Sensei for helping him and tells him how he escaped his kidnapper and about his soldier's affair with Hermit. Sensei is certain that Lynx was sent to kill Prince because of it so he accompanies Prince to confront Hermit.

When they arrive there, Hermit admits that he really has betrayed Prince, which he did to save his school, and Shogun himself has guaranteed his safety for doing this. Hermit decides to eliminate Prince himself, but Sensei prevents it and defeats him. Prince then demands Hermit to tell them where his kidnapper is.

After finding his location from Hermit, Prince and Sensei go to visit Butcher. When they meet, Butcher reminds Prince about their deal earlier, which Prince refers to as "luck". Butcher lets him go and tells him the whereabouts of the magical Sphere that Prince is after, and Prince pays him with golds in return. Sensei is disappointed upon hearing this, while Prince pretends that he is being accused. Even Butcher himself states that the Prince cannot be trusted, referring to him as spineless liar. When Sensei is fighting with Butcher, Prince uses this chance to run away and head to get the Sphere.

Prince goes to Widow's hiding place, where the Sphere is. After he arrives, Prince seizes the Sphere from Widow. However, he gets controlled by the Sphere's power and loses his mind. Shogun is not even able to stop him, and Prince takes Shogun to be executed and have his mind controlled. When Sensei finds him, Prince says that justice has triumphed and makes Shogun fight Sensei. After he defeats Shogun, Sensei tries to reason with Prince, which is useless. Thinking that Sensei want to take his throne, Prince proceeds to take out Sensei. But, Sensei manages to stop Prince and defeat him, before he can do anything harmful.

Some time later, Prince was finally assassinated in a scheme set by Shogun. This time, Shogun's reason is because Prince's greed and incompetence is ruining the empire.
