* CompleteMonster: [[BigBad (The) Jaquio]], real name [[EvilSorcerer Guardia de Mieux]], wants to TakeOverTheWorld. Jaquio learns of a legend about a Demon that came to Earth 700 years and went on a killing spree until it was defeated by a Shinobi. The Demon's body was [[SealedEvilInACan imprisoned]] in a temple and its spirit was trapped in 2 different statues. Jaquio plans to free the Demon, believing it will grant him great power. Jaquio takes over the temple ruins and kills archeologist Walter Smith and kidnaps Ryu's father Ken in order to obtain the statues. When Ryu Hayabusa confronts Jaquio, the latter threatens to kill CIA agent [[LoveInterest Irene Lew]] if Ryu doesn't give him the statue, planning to sacrifice her anyway after Ryu gives him the statue. When Ryu confronts Jaquio again, the latter reveals he has made Ken his [[BrainwashedAndCrazy mind-controlled puppet]] and gleefully has him attack Ryu. Ryu seemingly kills Jaquio, but the latter is revived by evil magic. Jaquio obtains the Sword of Chaos and the Altar of Darkness that will allow him to open a portal and [[HellOnEarth allow a horde of demons to enter Earth, dooming mankind in the process]]. Jaquio attacks Ryu through his pawn Ashtar, and plans to [[HumanSacrifice sacrifice]] Irene and Ryu to summon the demons to Earth.
