Two years ago, Heihachi failed
to capture Ogre.
Not willing to give up,
Heihachi ordered his researchers to collect blood
samples, skin tissue, and hoof fragments left behind
by Ogre (or known as True Ogre in its true
manifestation) in order to conduct genetic
experiments. Heihachi’s goal was to create a new
life form by splicing Ogre’s genome with his own.
However, the research was unsuccessful.
After extensive
experimentation, Heihachi’s bioengineers came to
the conclusion that an additional gene - the Devil
Gene - was necessary in order to
successfully splice Ogre’s genetic code into
another living organism. Heihachi learned that his
own genome lacked the Devil Gene, but he knew
someone who did...
Jin Kazama.
Jin, who vanquished Ogre in The
King of Iron Fist Tournament 3, was shot and
mortally wounded by Heihachi. As his life slipped
away, Jin transformed into a Devil. Upon his
transformation, he struck down Heihachi and took
flight.
Jin’s whereabouts were
unknown after the Tournament.
Heihachi searched for Jin to no
avail. However, Heihachi discovered a photograph
during his investigation that stirred his curiosity.
The 20-year-old photograph was an image of a burnt
corpse covered with laceration wounds. Heihachi paid
particular attention to the corpse’s back, which
had what looked like deformed, protruding wing-like
limbs.
Convinced that the picture was
of Kazuya, his own son whom he threw into a volcano
20 years ago, Heihachi diverted all his resources
into a search for the body. This search eventually
led Heihachi to G Corporation, a
leading-edge biotech firm making unprecedented
advances in the field of biogenetics research.
Heihachi discovered that G
Corporation found the corpse and extracted and
analyzed its genetic data. In fact, Heihachi learned
that the company was in the midst of creating a new
life form by using the data. Heihachi also
determined that Kazuya’s remains and research data
were secured at G Corporation’s Nebraska and Nepal
research laboratories, respectively.
Friday, 25 December. The Tekken
Force raided G Corporation’s maximum security
research laboratory in Nepal. The bottom floors of
the building were obliterated, and the remaining
data storage facility containing file servers was
airlifted by a group of heavy-duty helicopters.
At the same time, a separate
unit led by Heihachi infiltrated the underground
research facility in Nebraska, where Kazuya’s
remains were preserved. As Heihachi observed from
his helicopter, he soon realized that unlike the
Nepal facility, the operations in Nebraska were not
going according to plan. The tactical status monitor
screens showed the first wave of the Tekken Force
troops being blown out from the storage room where
Kazuya’s remains were supposedly kept.
A silhouette of a large figure
slowly emerged from the room... When Heihachi could
see clearly enough, he instantly recognized the
large figure as Kazuya.
Kazuya was resurrected in G
Corporation’s research facility. After his
resurrection, Kazuya offered his body as research
material to determine the true nature of the Devil
that resided within him. Kazuya’s goal was to
unify his two selves into one. Kazuya theorized that
if he unified his body with the Devil, he would be
able to truly harness its powers. He could then
finally take revenge against Heihachi and the Mishima
Zaibatsu (Financial Empire).
Enraged that Heihachi thwarted
his plans, Kazuya obliterated the heavily armed
Tekken Force and vanished into the flames of the
lab’s wreckage.
Heihachi was infuriated by
Kazuya’s escape and took out his anger on his
hapless subordinates who reported the escape.
Abel, Heihachi’s lead
scientific advisor, urged the enraged Heihachi to
quickly find a way to capture Kazuya. Once his anger
subsided, Heihachi focused his mind and decided on a
plan. An evil smile crept upon his lips.
Two years had passed since The
King of Iron Fist Tournament 3.
The Mishima Zaibatsu announced The
King of Iron Fist Tournament 4 and placed
the massive financial empire as the top prize.
The champion who manages to
defeat Heihachi at the end of the Tournament would
inherit the Mishima Zaibatsu.
Well aware that the tournament
is just a trap designed to lure him out, Kazuya
nevertheless enters - it is his chance to defeat
Heihachi. |
