Yusaku was once the Number Three man in the legendary biker gang SOUL
CREW. But after the sudden mysterious death of their leader, the gang
split up... The passionate young Yusaku felt the weight of responsibility
settle on his shoulders. But he has his worries, "Am I strong enough to
command? Do I have what it takes to be a leader?" Now, overcoming his
doubts, Yusaku plans to keep the spirit of the original SOUL CREW alive
by taking the helm of his new gang NEO SOUL. Yusaku is the hero of Last
Bronx. His weapon, the Three- Section Staff, can deal out punishment at
any range. He's also especially effective using shoulder tackles to put
his opponent out of commission.
The
sectioned staff is based on the principle of ampliflying the striking
power of a simple staff through the use of centrifugal force. Several
shorter staff sections are connected by rope or chain to add greater
flexibility and motion to the weapon's range. This simple type of
weapon has been used around the world for centuries. There are many
varieties of sectioned staffs; made of wood or metal, connected
with chain or rope, and consisting of various numbers of sections.
The one used by Yusaku in Last Bronx is known as a Three- Sectioned
Staff. Other types include the Nunchaku and the flail. The sectioned
staff was frequently used by mounted warriors who employed it one-handed
to deal out punishing blows on all sides. It is capable of inflicting
more damage than a simple staff, and of sending crushing shocks
even through armor and helmets. The origins of the sectioned staff
can be traced back to the Chinese farm implement known as the Renka.
It was first used as an infantry weapon (called the Rentei) about
the Ages of the Spring and Autumn Annals and Warring States (722-221
B.C.). The Rentei featured two sections connected by a long rope
and was used to attack entrenched enemy warriors. It was later adopted
for use by mounted troops in the Sung Dynasty (960-1279 A.D.).
