Storyline
World Fighting Tournament
Second World Fighting Tournament
A wealthy, prominent French family, the Rafales were known first and foremost for their success in aircraft research and development, but this business was only a front for an underground weapons trade. Lion Rafale grew up with the best education available, and had been groomed all his life to follow in his father's footsteps, but once he discovered his father was a "death merchant," Lion wanted nothing at all to do with the family business. His father has given him an ultimatum: if he wants out of the family legacy, he has to prove he can be successful enough in whatever he does to be worthy of the Rafale name. In other words, if Lion wins the World Fighting Tournament, his father will free him of all family obligations.
Third World Fighting Tournament
In the Second World Fighting Tournament, Lion was knocked out in the first round, but in that bout he discovered within himself a hidden fighting spirit. With a brand new focus, Lion became totally absorbed in his training as he sought to improve himself.

A year and several months passed, when an invitation finally arrived for the Third World Fighting Tournament. In order to redeem himself, and evaluate his new skills, Lion entered the Tournament. This time, he will do better!
Fourth World Fighting Tournament
After two defeats at previous Tournaments, Lion returned home doubting his own abilities. Proud of his son despite his losses, Lion’s father encouraged him to return to training and helped him regain his pride. A few months later, the invitation for the Fourth World Fighting Tournament arrived. With renewed confidence, Lion left home, claiming, “I am the only one who will win the championship!”
Fifth World Fighting Tournament
At the end of the Fourth World Fighting Tournament, Lion returned home. He had not been able to win the tournament, but was satisfied with his performance and fighting. His father congratulated him as well, and it seemed that his life would continue without incident.
But one day, Lion stumbled on the documents that seemed to link his father’s company to J6. Lion threw himself into his training, trying to forget about his suspicions. Just when he could no longer stand to keep quiet, an invitation arrived for the Fifth World Fighting Tournament.
Somewhat bothered by the timing of the invitation’s arrival, Lion decides to enter the tournament, in part to learn about his father’s involvement with J6.
