He married a woman named Kazumi and had a son named Kazuya. In order to prove he is strong, he throws him over the cliff and climb back up. Kazuya succeed, but only because he inherited the "Devil Gene" witch made him extremely powerfull. Later he adopted the Chinese orphan Lee Chaolan, but he did this only for giving Kazuya a rival and he never cared about him.

Two years later, the Mishima Zaibatsu announces The King of Iron Fist Tournament 2. After much deviant acts, Heihachi vows to take back the Zaibatsu and enters the Tournament. Along the way, he encounters Lee and defeats him. Heihachi finally succeeds by defeating Kazuya and throwing him into the mouth of a volcano.

Heihachi got back Mishima Zaibatsu after defeated Kazuya. He organised Tekken Force and sent them to produce food and and feed poor people in order to gain a support world leaders.

15 years later Tekken Force in the Middle America dug a still a misterious creature. Heaihachi learned that the creature can be legendary God of Fighting Ogre. Heaihachi thought that if he capture Ogre he will rule the world.

One day Heihachi was visited by 15-year-old boy Jin Kazama who was his grandson and Kazuya's son.

In the nineteenth Jin's birthday Heihachi announced the King of Iron Fist Tournament 3. He also saw that Jin has a dangerous force which Kazuya had too. Heihachi decided to kill Jin after he capture Ogre.

Heihachi failed to capture Ogre, but with the help of scientists, he collected his blood and tissues. It was used to create a new life form by combining Heihachi's and Ogre's genetic material. Experiment failed, but Heihachi learned that the Devil Gene is necessary to integrate Ogre's genome with his own. To get the Devil gene Heihachi searched Jin, who had transformed into the Devil in the last Tournament.

During the searching he learned that body of his son Kazuya, whom he killed 20 years ago was stored in biotech firm called G Corporation. Heihachi sent Tekken Force to raid G Corporation to obtain Kazuya's remains. The mission ended when Kazuya revived by G Corporation retaliated.

To create a new life form Heihachi needed the body of Kazuya or Jin, becouse both have Devil Gene. He decided to announced the King of Iron Fist Tournament 4.

During the Tournament Heihachi ordered Tekken Force to capture Jin. In the final battle he was fighting with Kazuya, and defeated him. He didn't kill him and they both went to Hon maru. When Kazuya saw Jin he deafened Heihachi. When he awakened Kazuya was unconscious after battle with Jin. Heihachi decided defeat his grandson, but Jin transformed into the Devil. He was near to kill him, but suddenly he said "Thank my mother, Jun Kazama" and flew away.

After their loss to Jin Heihachi and Kazuya in Hon Maru were attacked by the Jacks sent by G Corporation. The two worked together until Kazuya sold him out by tossing him to the Jacks. A Jack just activated a self-destruct sequence, and Heihachi was presumed dead.

In reality, he was just tossed a few miles away from the explosion and landed on a graveyard. He was unconscious for weeks and awaked to learn that the Mishima Zaibatsu is taken. Because of that, Heihachi entered the King of Iron Fist Tournament 5 to regain his company.
