Silver Fang, known privately as Bang, ranks 3rd among the Hero Association’s elite S-Class heroes. This elderly martial arts master retains a powerfully muscular build, his stern visage marked by spiky gray hair, piercing blue eyes, and numerous battle-earned scars. He typically dresses in traditional martial arts attire: a black long-sleeved shirt, light pants, and kung-fu shoes. Bang founded his own dojo, teaching his signature Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist—a fluid defensive style emphasizing redirection and precise counters. He developed it after abandoning his earlier, lethally destructive Exploding Heart Release Fist. The Water Stream style features four specialized forms: Ryusui-jin for controlled space combat, Gasoshi for pinpoint strikes, Shunshinko for fluid movement, and Mikiri for amplifying physical power by bypassing internal limits. Later, he collaborated with his brother Bomb to create devastating combination techniques like the Roaring Aura Sky Ripping Fist and Cross Fang Dragon Slayer Fist, which synergize their martial arts to inflict internal reverberations. Their advanced age restricts repeated use of these advanced moves. His brutal youth saw him as an undefeated fighter challenging strong opponents, evolving into a disciplined mentor. A profound personal failure was his inability to stop his student Garou from becoming the "Hero Hunter." After expelling Garou, Bang confronted him multiple times, consistently demonstrating superior skill—even dominating Garou in intense battles and creating craters with his strikes. Despite opportunities to finish Garou with lethal techniques like Exploding Heart Release Fist, Bang held back, hoping to halt his monsterization. Despite his age, Bang possesses extraordinary physical prowess. His strength shatters meteor debris, splits concrete columns with taps, annihilates Demon-level monsters instantly, and punches through Dragon-level threats like Gums. His speed surpasses most S-Class heroes, letting him outpace collapsing spaceships, evade Saitama’s attacks, blitz opponents before reaction, and rescue allies from peril. Durability feats include surviving building-demolishing strikes and enduring Elder Centipede’s corrosive acid that disabled Genos. He claims exceptional stamina, capable of sprinting tens of miles without fatigue. His combat perception includes a "sixth sense" or "Allsight," detecting enemies and anticipating attacks beyond conventional senses. At his limits, he uses Awakening Breath to temporarily enhance physical stats, visibly enlarging his musculature. Informally hailed as the "greatest treasure of martial arts," he stands as a foundational pillar of the hero community. Bang engages in critical battles against high-level threats: tanking alien Melzargard’s attacks before destroying its regeneration orbs; forcing Monster Association executive Elder Centipede to molt using combination techniques with Bomb; subduing Overgrown Rover with Fubuki’s aid; and intervening against Fuhrer Ugly, Gums, and Black Sperm by redirecting attacks while protecting allies. After retiring from hero work to reopen his dojo, he returns for dire situations like aiding against the Monster Association. Relationships reflect his stern yet principled nature: he respects Saitama’s power and attempts recruitment; mentors Genos through technique demonstrations; shares a close, affectionate bond with his brother Bomb; and protects his less competent student Charanko despite frustration at his inadequacies. Bang vocally upholds hero ethics, criticizing neglectful peers while remaining humble about his own capabilities.
