The King of Fighters' Red Flame Has Arrived to Defeat the Strongest Killer on the Internet

-**First appearance**: "The King of Fighters '99", replacing Kyo Kusanagi as the new protagonist at that time [^1][^2]. -**Identity**: The strongest reformed warrior of the secret organization "Voice Nest", codenamed "K". -**Ability**: Control Red Flame. The power comes from Kyo Kusanagi's genes, but it is unstable. The red mechanical glove on his right hand is used to suppress the flames and prevent him from going berserk [^1][^9]. -**Appearance**: Silver hair, dark skin, sunglasses, black motorcycle suit, with "a beast of prey" printed on the back, full of cold rebelliousness. -**Character**: Aloof, irritable, tough-tongued, often saying "I am enough". In fact, he attaches great importance to friendship and regards Maxima as his most trusted partner. -**Main plot**: Ben was controlled by Sound Nest to participate in the competition. Later, he discovered that his memory and life experience were fake, so he betrayed the organization, tracked down and finally destroyed Sound Nest. His fighting style focuses on "violent hand-to-hand combat + flames", with elbow strikes, knee strikes, and sunglasses throwing to interrupt opponents. His moves are sharp and nothing fancy.
