Shiba Aikune

Aikune briefly and unofficially acted as Champion after his mother's ascension.

Aikune was present at the test of the Emerald Champion but was forced to withdraw from the competition due to manipulation from the Scorpion Clan and Hantei Naseru. Frustrated by this and his inability to commune with his ancestors, Aikune searched for a purpose and power within his clan.

Aikune is now the bearer of Isawa's Last Wish and guardian of Gisei Toshi.

In a recent trip to Tengoku to retrieve Ofushikai he learned that the Last Wish fills the wound in Aikune's soul which is why he could not hear the Soul of Shiba.
