"Origin: JapanThe true form of Tenzan Tendou, the leader of the Tendou-gumi. He set up the organisation in order to gain tremendous power.
The organisation feared nothing and nobody. However, as old age began to creep into Tendou's body, he began to look for ways to regain his youth. That was when Sid approached him and promised him a way to gain immortality, with the condition that he would become a vampire. Tendou agreed to the deal immediately."
Tenzan Tendou, the vampiric leader of the Yakuza, is fought inside his mansion, their lair. He holds control over Yaraiginza's market and turns people who wish to join his gang into vampires via a golden statue, which also grants Tendou immortality. However, if they are too weak, he kills them. Sid Davis appears after his defeat, declaring that Tendou is nothing more than a weak old man since the golden statue's powers have worn off.
