Biography[]
Black Thorn was once a ninja who trained under the ninja master Gensai Koshimura. Though Black Thorn came to excel in the ninja arts, he grew disillusioned with it after his mother died while he was busy training and came to the conclusion that money was the only thing that mattered. When his master found out Black Thorn was using his ninja arts to commit crimes, Black Thorn attempted to murder Gensai but was knocked off a waterfall and presumed dead.
Four years later however, Black Thorn resurfaced and began a crime spree to obtain money, commit bombing buildings and attempting to blackmail the government into giving him money. Gensai quickly realized that his old student was behind the crimes and went to Tetsuzan for help. At the same time, the Sorcerers Clan also heard about Black Thorn and attempted to raid his hideout to steal the valuables he had plundered. However, Black Thorn was able to fight off both Jiraiya and the Sorcerers ninjas.
Gensai then decided to stop his rogue student himself and went to confront him, only to be fatally injured by Black Thorn. Jiraiya, Kei and Manabu went to assist Gensai but got their too late. Facing Black Thorn a second time, Jiraiya was able to defeat him by slashing him with his Light Vacuum Sword, putting down the thieving ninja for good.
