In his first day on training school, Tokikaze overheard Sonohara Mizuka's scream so he he went to find her, he found Douan Taketora was also joined into the training school and bullying Mizuka. Tokikaze tried to told Taketora to stop his action, but he doesn't listen and warns Tokikaze that if he keep standing against him he will kill his grandmother and kicks her off from dojo. Taketora also stated that if Tokikaze doesn't want to see his grandmother getting hurt, he should give him his stars too so Tokikaze will expelled from training school. Tokikaze has no choice but gives his stars to Taketora. Right after he gave Taketora his stars, Jail went to face Taketora to return the stars back to Tokikaze, but he told Jail to stop as this is his personal issue.

While returning to the class, Tokikaze thinking if he should steal stars from other students or not, but he keep telling him not to do that as he don't like violence. Then, Rihito told Tokikaze that he can just return home after this and staying with his grandmother. However, Tokikaze said he doesn't want and stated he must becoming a soldier, so that his grandmother can live peaceful without worrying him and Rihito.

Few weeks later, after Schmelman informs Class A about peeping incident, Tokikaze and Rihito having a conversation about it and said they have to capture the culprit first before the instructors did. Rihito stated he will soon peeping the woman's bath so he leaves the room. While Tokikaze told him to be careful, he just confused and realized that Rihito is the culprit, Then, Rihito told Tokikaze that he wasn't the culprit but he will disguises as one, so their classmate won't be sacrifice by the instructors. Tokikaze, in order to protect Rihito, he stated he will do that job instead so he claims himself is the culprit instead. Then, Alexandrov overheard Tokikaze's words and mistakenly thought he is the real culprit so he captured him. Later, after Alexandrov captured Jail and Rihito as well, the Class A was join responsibility for receives a punishment from peeping woman's bath. During the punishment, Tokikaze think that running for punishment is so much better than listening Schmelman's storybooks. Due to this, Jail told Rihito to peeping woman's bath again tonight, although Tokikaze and other students claims this is a bad idea.

Few weeks after the culprit was revealed to be Rihito and the class receives a punishment, the Class A is still doing their punishment due to Rihito keep peeping the woman's bath. Because of this, Alexandrov stated he will give them a "prize" for doing their punishment everyday, which soon revealed to be Forest Survival trip. Later when Ichinose Saki stated they must kills their enemies in order to become soldier, Schmelman appeared and said that they can forms the "Non-Killing Army" while they can still becomes a soldier. While the Class A was happy, Tokikaze told Rihito that he will forms the "Non-Killing Army" together with him and other students. With this, Class A decided to forms the "Non-Killing Army" under Schmelman's suggestion.

After the Forest Survival trip has ended, Class A's training is finally started. Schmelman stated that he won't train them as hard as Alexandrov. After the explanation, Schmelman told Class A try to hit him in a training battle. Although nobody except Lyne able to hit him, the training has begun. Tokikaze was told by Schmelman to draw his sword much father than a light.

Tokikaze and other students keep doing their training for a few months, until Davi was killed by the terrorists. In the next day, Class A received a news about Rihito will receives a surgery to gains superhuman strength. Tokikaze is shocked at this news and worries about Rihito, because if the surgery failed he will die. After Schmelman's genes successful injected into Rihito's body, the Class A students was glad that the surgery went well. Soon, the training school received a surprise attack from United Nations Forces. With this, Alexandrov told everyone to hiding inside the school. With the enemies still launch their attacks, Alexandrov told the remaining survivors to leave the school as soon as possible. After Jail and the others went to switch on the backup electrical, Tokikaze tried to stop them but the entrance was blocked. Seeing that the enemies had taken over the courtyard, Tokikaze has no choice but to faces United Nations Forces while gives other students a chance to run away. Before they could do so, Saki was captured by the enemy sergeant. Because of this, Tokikaze and the others was all captured by the enemies as well.

When the sergeant almost killed Akui Genji, Rihito has awaken from the surgery and went to saves the others. As Rihito fight against the enemies, Tokikaze gives Saki a clothes to cover her body and said Rihito's speed move as fast as a flash, which him and the others called him the "Flash Baron". After Rihito defeated the United Nations Forces, the enemies stand up and drops their clothes, which revealed they have explosive covering their body but Rihito destroyed the controller. Then, the enemy sergeant stated that they had placed a nuclear bomb in somewhere in the school (Although later it's revealed to be a lie). After the enemy sergeant finished the war teaching for the Class A, he stated he will activate the nuclear bomb in 10 seconds. Seeing how hopeless the situation was, Tokikaze decided to kill the soldiers by himself, but due to his grandmother's promise, Rihito stopped him and he killed the soldiers instead. As Rihito run away, Jail and the others told Class A that it's time for them go back to their future and disappeared.

Tokikaze was chosen to becomes the Red Baron. Although Tokikaze became the Red Baron, Licht has never once bring him into the battlefield due to their grandmother's promise that she doesn't want to see Tokikaze kills people. Later when Licht's went completely berserk, at sometimes, Tokikaze went to see him and hoping he can regain his sanity. At that time, Licht briefly regained his sanity and told Tokikaze uses Ballots to bans nuclear weapons. Licht stated that as long as the nuclear weapons was banned, he don't care if he will forever lost his sanity and emotions. Tokikaze cries and follow Licht's advise to ban nuclear weapons.

Sometimes during the war, berserked Licht went to fight against Tokikaze. Tokikaze's wife, Tsukina Farrow, in order to stop the fight between the Sakai brothers, she went to face Licht and stop him. However, Tsukina failed to do so and received a fatal wound from Licht. Tokikaze believes Tsukina was death and she has been killed by Licht, but he never blame him for this happening. In the last day of the war, after the barons collected all seven Ballots, the instructors used the barons to bans the nuclear weapons and created a sky island named Althea. Knowing the instructor's true intention, Tokikaze steals a Ballot from them and finds the Class A to inform them what's happening. Soon, the instructors sent Licht to kill Tokikaze and take back the Ballot. As Licht killed Tokikaze, he regained his sanity and feel despair, due to the fact he killed his adoptive brother by his own hands.

Although Tokikaze received a fatal wound, he is still alive and he has been left unconscious for 2 years long. When Tokikaze finally awaken, he saw a latter about the Class A will commit suicide so the children can fill their stomach. Tokikaze went to find them and only discovered they already committed suicide in a volcano. After he discovered this, he started crying for a while. After that day, Tokikaze became the King of Abyss and ruling the country for 300 years long.

Story Event
Tokikaze returned from the Abyss at the end of Chapter 39, which surprised Licht and he started crying. After Licht called Tokikaze's name, he suddenly killed the spy that injured Hina, taking the phone and having a conversation with Schmelman that he will let him taste the same despair as him and the people who lives inside Abyss. Soon, Tokikaze attacked Licht for revenge and brought Hina away together with him and back to the Abyss.

After bringing Hina into the Abyss, Tokikaze try to heal her wound and stated he feel sorry to her that he brought her into the world of abyss. When Tokikaze seen Hina playing with the children, he thanks her for doing so due to those children who don't have a mother.

Later, Tokikaze found Hina's ballot and tried to use it along with the other three ballots stolen from Licht, to end Schmelman's "garden" land so Althea will fall down to the ground. During the Althing, Schmelman pointed that the reason why Tokikaze wanted to do these is due to unfair treatment they got, so he will create a house with a bunch of foods in somewhere at Althea for him and the children. Tokikaze, angered at this, due to he no longer able to trusts his words anymore and about to launch rocket missiles. Before Tokikaze can press the button, Hina stops him for doing so by calling him "father" and reveals that Tsukina is her mother. Tokikaze, while being calm, he stated that he knew Hina's true identity and pressed the button. After the rocket missiles launched at the sky and exploded, Tokikaze stopped the Althing and announced that he and his children will begin their invasion at Althea tomorrow.

After the announcement, Tokikaze tells Hina that she can now leave the world of abyss and go back to find Licht. Then, Hina comes in front of Tokikaze and take back her ballot. Tokikaze told Hina to returns her ballot but she won't, he asked her that where is Tsukina and she replies her mother was already absorbed into the world of abyss 5 years ago. Tokikaze then believed that she is already dead, Hina mentioned that how she feels lonely and how she wanted to know who is her father prior to 5 years, but she keep hiding her feeling so she won't feel more sadness. Hina then told Tokikaze that he can take her ballot, but in return he must reunite and work together with Licht, as what he actually wanted is have Licht feels the same pain as his so that he can sympathize with him and helps to fight against Schmelman. Tokikaze then, didn't take Hina's ballot and leave her alone. Soon, Tokikaze informs the children that they will have invasion on Althea, so they can eat food as much as they want. The children noticed something is wrong with Tokikaze, he takes his mask out and stated nothing happen, while he begins crying.

In the next day, along with Erin and the children was begin their invasion at Althea. The soldiers and spy are tried their best to stop Tokikaze but they're either easily defeated or feel fear due to his high counts. As seeing the children eating the foods, Tokikaze smiled at them.

Later when Tokikaze checking how many spy of Special Service remaining, he noticed the Althing was shows up and informed Erin to uses her communication ability, only to discovered that Licht is in charge with the Althing. Tokikaze was shocked and angered at Licht wearing Special Service clothes and helping them. During the Athing, Licht said that all Tokikaze is doing now is only repeating the abandoning war. Tokikaze, at first, doesn't wants to listen Licht's words, but after he pointed out that will the Class A really happy at this or not, Tokikaze changed his mind and supports Licht's suggestion of abandon the nuclear weapons. This only lead to the victory of hidden faction, White Special Service, and the second betray. Tokikaze started worrying at Licht and wonders what's happening, he stated this is all caused by the seventh baron. Before Tokikaze could say something, the communication was turned off and realized that the White Special Service also captured Erin and the children.

Later when Erin reactivate her communication ability, it's shown Nikola and Schmelman on the screen. Tokikaze thought Schmelman uses the children as hostage, he threw his Ballot and told Schmelman to spare the children while take his life instead. However, Schmelman stated he won't spare the children's life and this is just a "special-event" made just for Tokikaze. As Tokikaze saw the children being toying by the spy of White Special Service, he started crying and told them to stop. Then, Schmelman said it's Tokikaze's fault that the children will be all killed. Tokikaze then stated Schmelman is the one who started all these in the first place and hoping he can become a kind person again. Schmelman, being annoyed and ordered the spy to kill all the children at once. Tokikaze was shocked and feel despair. Soon, Erin turned her communication ability again as she don't want him to see the spy killing children. Tokikaze wonders why the communication went off, Nikola appeared in front of him and told him all children has been killed. This angered Tokikaze and tried to attack him, but Nikola easily dodged his blink attack.

Nikola then touches Tokikaze's head to created a illusion world, which he claims this is Tokikaze's memory. In the illusion world, it's shown Tokikaze's fight against berserked Licht and Tsukina's "death". When Tsukina was stabbed by Licht, she asks Tokikaze if he still remember when did he became all alone in 300 years ago. Tsukina claims the moment when he did isn't when Class A students committed suicide or when the children are all killed, but when Licht "killed" her and steals everything from him. Tokikaze deny this and stated it was when all children were killed. Tsukina doesn't believe his words and asks him one more question, about if he really happy when he spent his time with the children for 300 years. She claims that he didn't because no matter how much Tokikaze loves the children, he will always ends up killing them once they've fully grown as a adult and only made him feel even more sadness. Then, Tsukina said she doesn't want to see Tokikaze suffering now so she will give him a "helping hand", which revealed that Tsukina is actually Nikola in disguise and injects a drug on him. Tokikaze was shocked and asks Nikola what kind of drug he injected, and Nikola explains it's same drug the Special Service used on Licht at 300 years ago.

While Tokikaze started went berserk, Nikola informs him the drug are 300 times much concentrated than before and he will never free from brainwashing on his own. Tokikaze realized they wanted him went berserk and uses him to kill Licht, although Nikola stated the person precious to him was not Licht but his daughter, Hina. Soon, Nikola asks Tokikaze if he wanted to kill his own daughter or to become Schmelman's lapdog, Tokikaze has no choice but to join the Special Service once again. As Tokikaze's count increasing due to his bloodlust genes, he apologies Hina for not being honest and Licht for his action during their reunion earlier. He also hoping Licht to kills him while protecting Hina from his hands. After Tokikaze's counts increased to 3042150, he lost his sanity and fully brainwashed by Special Service.

After Tokikaze was brainwashed, he went to Special Service headquarter to meet Schmelman. As he arrived on Ende, he saw the clones and mistakenly thought they're the real Class A students. Because of this, Tokikaze hugs Eins and said he can't believe Class A students is still alive. Before Eins could say she's a clone of Saki, it's interrupt by Schmelman asking Tokikaze a question. Tokikaze stated he will surely kill Licht for Schmelman. Then, Schmelman told Tokikaze to have fun reunion with the Class A "students".
