Fon is a Chinese martial artist and the holder of the Red Arcobaleno Pacifier. It is revealed that he is I-Pin's master.

Character Outline

Appearance

Fon looks similar to Kyoya Hibari and Alaudi, though his hairstyle differs from theirs in that he has a long braid. A doll resembling him would later be given to I-Pin by Ryohei. Early in the series, he wore a disguise that comprised of purple clothes and dark glasses with large, round lenses. He is otherwise usually dressed in red. As an adult it's revealed he has a Chinese dragon tattoo that wraps around his left arm where the dragon head ends on his left peck.

Personality

He is characterized by being relaxed, and is normally seen with a slight smile. Fon is kind and polite to everyone he speaks to, always greeting first while bowing, where he enjoys listening to people.

Fon always trusts people, even if he doesn't know them very well. Not one that is easy to be angered or provoked, Fon faces people who have short tempers with patience and remains civil to them while trying to give his advice. Keen on fixing things wisely rather than resorting to violence, Fon is able to remain calm, and level-headed. Fon cares for the well-being of his student, I-Pin, and adores her. In training I-Pin he is effective in helping her with valuable lessons for her development.

Where he is quite intelligent, Fon is rarely fooled by simple tricks. He usually tries to analyze the situation before becoming too friendly, because although pleasant, he's not naive in that regard. That Fon prefers to stay out of fighting situations is not due to a lack of skill, he is ready to be involved should there be a problem where he does not hesitate to fight back.

He is also said to be the fastest Arcobaleno, as mentioned in his own story and demonstrated more than once, proving himself not only fast but also agile and smart. He loves to rest in peaceful places and let time pass, especially in quiet locations. He also loves drinking tea.

Abilities

Fon is a martial arts champion with extremely high hand-to-hand combat level and claimed to be able to move with an accuracy of microns. Aside from combat, he's also knowledgeable of medical aid as shown when he scanned Basil's wounds.

• Gyoza-Kempo: This technique numbs the brain, causing the enemy's muscles to move involuntarily. Since the garlic is not perceived, people believe the user is using psychic abilities. The dumplings consumed to perform Gyōza-Kempo contain the essence of 5 million regular gyoza, so if an ordinary person consumes them, they will most likely die. According to Fuuta, Gyōza-Kempo ranks 116th out of 520 mid-range special attacks.
• Exploding Lotus Kempo: Fon unleashes a dragon made of storm flames that can shatter through objects, passing through walls or breaking them completely, with its characteristic flame Disintegration. It has proven strong enough to immobilize Verde's missiles. It is unknown whether it is part of Gyoza-Kempo or a new move used only by Fon.
• Exploding Gale Fist: He possesses unparalleled skill and agility. Upon using this technique, Fon is able to fight at incredible speeds and is able to react and move in microseconds. Due to his training, in addition to his common ability, Fon is capable of great strength but also unmatched speed and agility, making his attacks swift and powerful.
• Exploding Dragon Fire Dance: This technique releases a red Fire Storm Dragon, similar to the Lotus Kempo Explosion, but stronger and larger.
