TV Special
Description
Wan-Fu is a Chinese general from a noble family in the Qing Dynasty, driven by the ambition to build a powerful army and unify China. This quest leads him to Japan seeking exceptional warriors, though he fails to recruit anyone meeting his standards. A prophet later tells him of the "Seed of Destruction," an artifact promising world domination at the cost of the user's soul; Wan-Fu resolves to obtain it at any cost for his unification goal.
Physically robust with above-average strength, he can lift a man with one hand. He wields heavy or unconventional weapons, notably a massive stone pillar torn from a temple. His fiery techniques include projecting flames through attacks and hurling his weapon as an explosive projectile, though disarming himself to do so leaves him vulnerable.
His personality is brash and impatient, easily provoked to anger. Despite this volatility, his intentions are well-meaning, focused on his vision for China. He adheres to traditional warrior values, respecting others only after proving their worth in direct combat.
In *Samurai Shodown: The Motion Picture*, Wan-Fu is one of six "Holy Warriors" guarding the seal imprisoning the dark god Ambrosia. When fellow warrior Shiro Tokisada Amakusa breaks the seal, Wan-Fu joins the confrontation but is defeated and killed alongside the others, though their souls endure. A century later, the Holy Warriors reincarnate with memories intact. Wan-Fu participates in regrouping, locating their amnesiac leader Haohmaru, and mounting a new assault against Amakusa's rule. Despite falling into a trap during the attack on Amakusa's castle, the combined power of the Holy Warriors breaks the enemy's defenses. Wan-Fu later fights with the resistance during the final peasant uprising, contributing to Ambrosia's defeat and order's restoration.
In another narrative, Wan-Fu defends Beijing alongside his brother, Wan-Ron. Both are beloved protectors until demons infiltrate the city, mentally enslaving them, leading to famine and suffering. With external help, Wan-Fu breaks free, rescues his brother, and liberates the citizens.
Later, in *Samurai Shodown Sen*, Wan-Fu's son contracts an incurable disease. Frustrated by the imperial doctors' inability to cure his child, he departs China once more, desperately seeking a remedy.
