As a fighting legend in Hong Kong, Gen believes that there are other people worthy of challenging him, and sets his mind to finding such opponents. While many younger talents seek him to uncover his style, he rejects many of them for lacking in true fighting skill. It is only when he finds great potential that he sets his mind to teaching his secrets. In the Street Fighter Alpha series, Gen searches for the ultimate opponent to fight to the death. The mighty name of Akuma rings through his mind as he vows to seek him out.
