"Well...that's...y'see.... Okay! Fine I'll go with you!! But only 'cause Hanzo ordered it! It's nothing to do with you! I mean, err.....umm...."

- Sasuke

Sasuke was a member of the Rokkaku ninja clan, known for his exceptional skills and dedication to improving his abilities. Unaware of his parentage as per Rokkaku tradition, he was the child of former Rokkaku Vice-Chief, Hien.

In the past, driven by his desire to become stronger, Sasuke pursued the acquisition of a rune. He also assumed the role of a bandit to challenge and test travelers passing through the Banner Pass. On one occasion, he crossed paths with the leader of the Toran Liberation Army, engaging in a confrontation.

As the events of the Dunan Unification War unfolded, Sasuke, who had been trained as a swallow ninja until the age of 12, lacked practical experience. Despite this, he possessed great talent and a relentless determination to improve his abilities.

Following a visit by the hero, Rokkaku leader Hanzo ordered Sasuke to join the New State Army alongside Mondo. Mondo would tease Sasuke about being happy to work with Kasumi again, much to the flustered youth's irritation.

Although he claimed he only accepted the position because he was ordered to, Sasuke was secretly happy to have a chance to experience the outside world. Within the New State Army, Sasuke proved his worth by conducting reconnaissance missions, showcasing his skills in tasks such as the rescue of Ridley Wizen, who had been captured by the Highland Kingdom.

Throughout the war, Sasuke harbored a crush on Kasumi, fellow Rokkaku ninja and member of the New State Army. Envious of her growth and development since the Gate Rune War, he found himself unable to openly express his emotions, confused as they were, leading to occasional avoidance of her presence.

Following the conclusion of the Dunan Unification War, Sasuke returned to Rokkaku alongside Kasumi and Mondo, continuing his life as a member of the ninja clan.
