Elite Seven

The Elite Seven is one of multiple squads of killers who were recruited as children. The Empire began to form these elite squads when rebellions began to rise due to the Empire's corruption, and the need to quell these rebellions became vital to the Empire's survival. The Empire acquired an estimated 100 children to take part in a cruel exam in which the participants were dropped into a dangerous forest full of beasts and challenged to survive. The survivors were then recruited into these groups.

Elite Seven is headed by Gozuki, who took the strongest seven of the survivors of the forest exam as his proteges and trained them in the assassin trade, having them refer to him as "father" and considering them his children in return.
