Shikyo was once
a member of the Shinsengumi, like Keiichiro
Washizuka, but it was not to preserve
Japanese history; it was to go on gleeful killing sprees. It didn't take
the Shinsengumi long to figure this out, but Shikyo escaped before they
could do anything to him, in search of more killing. Rumors of the Gates
of Hell made him want to kill even more, but killing mere commoners was
not satisfying enough. He sought prey to quench his bloodlust; and when
a strange man came to him and told him it could be found, he was quite
happy to go along. While
Hell's Gate was being closed, Shikyoh is lured close and trapped in the Makai
until he returned as Mukuro.
