Ataza's father, Ikonn, and another mysterious fighter, Vinka, have shown up at the 15th Tournament of Kokoro. However, nobody knows who they are until the competition ends, and only then, do some deeper secrets about Ataza's family come to light. When Ikonn and Vinka are set to depart from their visit, a vile illness strikes Ikonn and takes form in a way that is out of this world, literally! Its name is Cancer, but it isn't just the disease, it's a living being. From there, Cancer begins his plague of the earth's inhabitants, increases his stages of potency, and leaves Ikonn out of the fight. The plates are used to resurrect some assistance for Ataza and Tanin, while Paokang and the rest of Kokoro's defenders and elite gear up for a battle to the death with the murderous parasite. Just when their efforts are nearly in vain, a sleeper awakens to challenge Cancer once and for all. Join the adventure in the fourth volume of the Plates of Kokoro series.
