Editing Kane (Jump Force) (section)

== Biography ==

=== Background ===
Kane's origins are shrouded in mystery, but he emerges in "Jump Force" as a powerful and enigmatic villain with a deep disdain for the current state of the world. His backstory is gradually revealed through his dialogues and confrontations with the game's heroes, suggesting that he was once an ordinary person who experienced profound disillusionment with humanity's stagnant state . Kane believes that conflict, destruction, and the survival of the fittest are the true paths to strength and evolution.

Driven by this philosophy, Kane allies himself with [[Galena]], another original character designed by Toriyama, who shares his ambition to create a new world order. Together, they seek to manipulate the energies of the Jump Worlds (fictional universes from the Weekly Shonen Jump series) to create a reality where only the strongest survive. Kane's ultimate goal is to shatter the existing boundaries between worlds, merge them into one chaotic battlefield, and force humanity to evolve or perish as revenge for his family's deaths.

=== Role in "Jump Force": ===
In "Jump Force," Kane serves as one of the main antagonists, working alongside Galena and unknowingly, mastermind [[Prometheus (Jump Force)|Prometheus]], who controls the Umbras Cubes. These cubes have the power to turn ordinary humans into Venoms — mindless warriors who obey the will of Prometheus. Kane, however, harbors his own plans for the cubes and seeks to harness their power to amplify his own abilities and destroy the world’s current order.

Kane’s ideology clashes with the members of Jump Force, a team of heroes from different Jump universes brought together to protect Earth from the threat of the Venoms and the merging worlds. Kane views them as naïve for trying to maintain the status quo and accuses them of being too weak to understand the necessity of destruction for the sake of rebirth.

Throughout the game, Kane battles the heroes multiple times, demonstrating his immense strength, agility, and combat skills. He is a ruthless fighter, wielding a combination of physical prowess, energy manipulation, and dark powers derived from the Umbras Cubes. Despite his malevolent actions, he often expresses a grudging respect for those who prove their strength against him, indicating that his motives are not purely evil but driven by his belief in his twisted sense of justice and progress.

[[The Player (Jump Force)|The player]] defeats Kane, only for Glover to reveal himself as Prometheus, the true mastermind behind the merging of the worlds and Galena's actual master, who had used Kane to spread chaos across the worlds. Once Kane's usefulness ends, Galena seemingly kills him and stalls the heroes to buy time for Prometheus to continue his plans. The heroes manage to defeat Galena, but Prometheus absorbs her shortly afterward.

Confronting Prometheus, the heroes learn that he is a "keyman" responsible for showing the real world the stories of "Jump." However, he grew disillusioned with humanity's vices and decided to merge the real and Jump worlds to guide humanity toward a better path. To achieve this, he steals the player's cube for its positive energy, intending to balance it against the evil energy he collected from the villains and become a god. The villains join forces with the heroes in a temporary truce, and a still-living Kane uses his last strength to give his cube to the player. [[Goku (Jump Force)|Goku]] further empowers them with the energy of all the Jump Force, enabling them to finally destroy Prometheus.
