“	"I am the strongest in the world."	”
—Sa Ji

Sa Ji was Shi Shi's right hand man and Ketsu Shi's Chief Executioner. He was a member of the Sei Kyou Faction. During Ei Sei's arrival in the capital, he guarded one of the corridors leading to the throne room, where he subsequently encountered Shin and representatives of the mountain tribes.

Appearance

Sa Ji is a middle-aged or near-middle-aged man who wears no armor during combat, relying solely on his own defensive skills. His face is clean-shaven and has thick dark eyebrows above his eyes. His hair is dark and pulled back into a bun. He has rough hands and well-defined knuckles, which indicate his occupation.

Personality

Sa Ji was very cruel and arrogant, he thought he was the strongest in the world because he had mastered the sword in both speed and strength. His men commented that he was the type to cut you in half if you got his clothes dirty. When he had the upper hand on someone, he felt insulted him he took pleasure in slashing his opponent while constantly taunting them.

Story

Sei Kyou's Rebellion Arc

Sa Ji's first appears with Gi Kou and Shi Shi as they watch Ei Sei's group ride into Kanyou. We learn that he was highly ranked in the capital after he punches a Gendarmes and there was no retaliation.

Later, he took up residence in the corridor leading to the throne room, bypassing the main square. There, he and his loyal followers awaited a potential enemy. When the battle with the Yo Tan Wa forces began, a small group was sent down this corridor. Shin, Heki, Ka Ryo Ten, and the mountaineer leaders Bajio, Tajifu, and Shunmenwere part of this group, and they encountered Sa Ji, and a fight ensued. During the battle, Sa Ji managed to kill several highlanders who dared to attempt on his life and soon he entered into battle with Shin.

Although he clearly dominated Shin at the beginning of the battle, over time the latter managed not only to wound him but also to kill him. After his death, his entire squad was killed and the group moved forward.

Sa Ji was a highly skilled fighter, considered the finest swordsman in Qin and one of the best in China. He was the executioner and chief assassin of Prince Sei Kyou, whom even Sho Bun Kun feared. Sa Ji was a great warrior with formidable strength, capable of striking with lightning speed. His sword strokes were so swift as to be imperceptible to the naked eye: he easily killed several Qin mountain men, known for their ferocious fighting abilities, slicing each in two with a single sword stroke, and he completely outclassed Shin in their duel. Sa Ji's aura was so deadly that it paralyzed Heki and made Shin sweat with fear. His mere presence intimidated the royal guards, and even Yo Tan Wa understood that he was an opponent not to be underestimated simply by sensing his aura.
