History[]
Knuckle accidentally killed his opponent.
Knuckle was originally a professional boxer who aimed to reach the top. However, due to his sheer strength, he killed (incapacitated in the anime) an opponent during a match by accident. Soon after, Knuckle quitted boxing and dedicated his life to religion, becoming a priest to atone for his sin. At his Family's moment of crisis however, he gave himself three minutes to fight and managed to save his friends when they truly needed him.
During a big war between Vongola and a rival Mafia Family, Knuckle informed Giotto that an allied Family of Vongola, Simon Family, are cornered in the middle of the enemy's territory. Giotto intended to go save the Simon Family himself, but was stopped by Demon Spade who offered to go with an elite team in his stead. Giotto, already knew that Demon actually planned to kill the Simon Family, had Knuckle and the rest of the Guardians to disguise themselves as Demon's subordinates and secretly saved the Simon Family.
Future Arc[]
Primo Family Arc[]
Knuckle appears from the Sun Vongola Ring.
When Tsuna and the others return to the past along with Uni to train before battling with the Millefiore, Uni summons Vongola Primo from the Vongola Ring and was told that the first Guardians of the Vongola Family will observe henceforth if they are worthy enough to inherit Vongola's true power or not. At night, he appears from the Sun Vongola Ring in front of Ryohei at the same time as Giotto's other guardians done the same to the respective guardians. After introducing himself, he commented that this must be based around the will of God and said everything depends on Ryohei's hard work while he's judging him.
After Skull was defeated, he appeared in front of Ryohei and the others and deemed him worthy to inherit the power of the Sun Guardian. Knuckle explains that he has seen Ryohei's action for the whole day from how he's training himself to wait for Knuckle's trial until he passionately tried to persuade Hibari into taking his trial that finally convinced Hibari, a feat that the others failed to do. From this observation, Knuckle concludes that Ryohei has properly embodied his role as Sun Guardian. When Alaudi appeared and then also deemed Hibari worthy, Hibari requested Alaudi to fight him, making Knuckle commented that Hibari is just like how Alaudi used to be like. He and Alaudi then gave their inheritance to Ryohei and Hibari.
Later, at Namimori Shrine, he along with other the Guardians and Primo meet to discuss the trials so far, and the ones yet to come. All of them look worried since the next trial would be Demon Spade's succession test. The next day, at Kokuyo Land, he along with Giotto and the other guardians watched Demon's trial from a far and he was one of Guardians who opted to stop Demon, but Giotto told them just to wait and watch to determine the true worth of the 10th Generation Vongola Family. G. once again expressed his desire to stop Demon, and Knuckle reminded Giotto that Demon has taken a different path from them since the very beginning. Even so, Giotto still considers Demon as his Guardian and refuse to interfere with the trial.
After Demon's trial finished, he along with the other Guardians and Giotto returned to the Vongola Rings.
