STORY
Johann is a rich man who owns an island in Sunshine Bay, in which he has a mansion that is used as a shrine by the Black Dragon cult. Johann is possessed by the Black Dragon spirit, which is an evil entity destined to bring chaos and destruction into the world. Johann is seen as a prodigious man among members of the Black Dragon sect because he was able to tame and dominate the black dragon spirit at a young age. Details about his life are surrounded by mystery, even some people believe he comes from another world.
Johann once was under the guidance of Lee Song, being expelled due to his ambition and negative personality. After that, Johann developed great anger and hate for his former master and eventually joined the black dragon cult taking from his master dojo a sealed scroll to set free the spirit of the black dragon after killing him. Johann's objective is to find and eliminate the owners of the remaining dragon spirits to absorb their powers and create a new world ruled by his cult.
