Battle Tendency

Mark's first appearance
Mark encountering the Pillar Men

Mark is asked by Caesar to drive him, Joseph, and Speedwagon, to where the Pillar Men are being kept. According to Caesar, the Nazis had been interested in studying the Ripple, and Mark seems genuinely eager for Speedwagon to lend his information to the Nazis so that they could find a way to annihilate the Pillar Men before they awaken.

Upon arriving at the cave where the Pillar Men were found, Mark unexpectedly stumbles upon the three Pillar Men, who had awoken from their slumber long before they arrived. However, it was too late for Mark to move out of the way; Wamuu walks through him, causing half of Mark's body to be absorbed.[2]

His final wish is for Caesar to kill him so that he could die a painless death, which Caesar obliges to by sending the Ripple through his heart. Caesar's resolve for the death of his friend fuels him during his battle with the Pillar Men soon after.[1]
