Then he goes on to defeat the Black Beast as one of the Six Heroes. From here, his soul is bound to the Susano-o armor, and he becomes Hakumen. This thrusts Jin back into the past where he meets Rachel Alucard, who offers to help him become a true hero. In one of Jin's endings, he leaps after his brother, Ragna, when Nu-13 latches onto him and jumps into the Cauldron with him at the Gates of Sheol. It is revealed that Hakumen is, in fact, Jin Kisaragi through hints given to the player during both their respective stories in Calamity Trigger. He also seems to show an intense respect towards Bang Shishigami because of his sense of justice.

While Hakumen is generally a grumpy sort who often attacks characters without provocation, there are a few characters he will tolerate, including Jubei, one of his former comrades among the Six Heroes, and Rachel Alucard, to whom he feels indebted.

He finds himself repeatedly aggravated by her meddling, especially when she interferes with his duels by having him teleported elsewhere. He was later 'rescued', by Kokonoe, a scientist who often subjects Hakumen to her whims. Afterwards, Hakumen warned the people to 'change their evil ways', but was exiled and sealed in a place called 'The Edge' of The Boundary for roughly 90 years. He was the legendary 'Silver Knight' who appeared during the First War of Magic, and lead a band of Six Heroes (including himself) that ultimately defeated the Black Beast. He is voiced by Tetsuya Kakihara in the Japanese version, and by David Vincent in the English version. This might be because while the Black Beast did spread destruction, it left seithr which became the power source for the future, while nuclear weapons just completely obliterated any life within its radius and leaves the area irradiated and useless. It seems that Hakumen finds nuclear weapons to be a greater evil than the Black Beast was. This makes him an equally dangerous foe to both mortal men as well as more powerful beings. His armor (which is the Susano'o Unit), seems to grant him limitless energy and incredible power, and his sword (a Nox Nyctores named 'Ookami') appears to bear the capability to kill characters that otherwise would be immortal, or have rapid healing properties that would make them difficult or impossible to kill. He is an incredibly powerful individual in the BlazBlue universe, so much so that the player is often told to proceed with caution when confronting him, and at times even advised not to do so entirely. Hakumen is a samurai-esque warrior wielding a sword as tall as he is and wearing a mask that completely hides his face. He is the leader of the Six Heroes and is actually an alternate future version of Jin Kisaragi. Hakumen is one of the main heroes of BlazBlue. With blade in hand shall I reap the sins of this world and cleanse it in the fires of destruction.
