Biography
Gozu-Tennou is the leader of the Mantra Army and an enemy of the Nihilo Assembly. He, and the rest of his army, is stationed in Ikebukuro, where he rules with an iron fist. Gozu-Tennou has a unique Manikin Priestess who serves under him. She is one of the few Manikins with notable abilities. Gozu-Tennou believes in the absolute power of strength and he naturally sides with Yosuga. When Hito-Shura enters Ikebukuro, he is accused of being a Nihilo spy, causing him to be arrested. He has to prove his "innocence" by defeating several enemies in combat. After the Hito-Shura defeats them, Gozu-Tennou grants him an increase in power, allowing him to summon more demons. After traveling to the Nihilo Assembly, the Nightmare System activates, hitting Ikebukuro and destroying the Mantra Army. Gozu-Tennou is mortally wounded from this and says that despite being close to death his will shall live on. He then dies, his statue collapsing to pieces. After some time passes, a desperate Chiaki Tachibana stubbles upon his ruins. His spirit speaks to her, and the remains of his power is transfered into her body, making her a pseudo fiend and allowing her to thrive in the Vortex World.
