Fist of the North Star, Vol. 7 takes readers into a postapocalyptic wasteland ruled by savage gangs. In this classic manga, a hero emerges to bring justice to the guilty. This warrior, named Ken, possesses the deadly secrets of a mysterious martial art known as Hokuto Shinken—the Divine Fist of the North Star!

In this world where humanity has risen from the ashes of an all-out nuclear war, chaos reigns, and a nightmare of endless suffering ensues. Warlords and gangs of savage marauders dominate the broken ruins of civilisation, spreading terror and enslaving the survivors. Life is a brutal struggle for existence, with death being the only release.

The masters of the Nanto Seiken school, known as the Nanto Rokuseiken—the Six Holy Fists of the South Star, play a crucial role in this desolate world. Among these six, the most powerful is Holy Emperor Souther. Yet, Shu, another warrior of the Nanto Seiken, dares to resist Souther’s tyranny. Shu once saved Kenshiro’s life, and now the two will team up again. However, Kenshiro remains unaware of Souther’s secret—a secret so potent that even Raoh won’t dare to challenge his reign...
