Much to his chagrin, Kazuya grew up kind and frail, perhaps due to the more loving treatment he received from his grandfather Jinpachi (see Kazuya's Tekken 5 ending). During this time, He fathered a son named Kazuya. Heihachi was born as the heir to the rich, powerful, and well-respected Jinpachi Mishima, the owner of the powerful Mishima Zaibatsu and a world-famous martial arts master.

Some Mishimas, like Jin and his great-grandfather Jinpachi (Heihachi’s father), are nobler than others, like Kazuya. But as Heihachi says, “I won’t die that easily, fools.” So recently he has had trouble keeping up with his son and grandson vying for control of his company – especially considering they both have access to supernatural “Devil Gene” powers Heihachi does not possess.
