Who is Shuren?
Shuren of the Flames (炎�シュレン, Hon� no Shuren?) is the Leader of the Goshasei's Crimson Army and uses a style which allows him to manipulate fire. After Hyui's death, Shuren challenges Raoh to avenge Hyui's death. He uses the suicidal Gosha Enj�ken ("Five Chariots Passionate Flame Fist") technique, which engulfs his entire body in flames, but proves to be ineffective against Raoh.
