Shen Wulong

The Connector (繋つながる者もの, Tsunagaru-mono)
"Jackie Lee" (Nickname)
The Dragon
The terrible wind with pointed claws

Wulong also possesses superhuman control over his body. However, once he decided to "enjoy" his fight with Mukaku, instead of using it as a way to exert more of his strength, he deliberately limited himself in various ways, such as relocating his tendons, suppressing his muscle output, limiting his joints' range of motion, setting his neurotransmission speed to the lowest setting and even shutting down some of his brain’s circuits. Even when deliberately physically shackling himself, Wulong still overpowered Mukaku. Three of his attacks landing had left Mukaku momentarily groggy in mid-combat. Repeated blows from Mukaku's Ironbreaker barely even fatigued him let alone wounded him. Wulong himself even claimed Mukaku was too slow to keep up with him despite his self-imposed limiting.

When infiltrating the Kengan Association, Wulong effortlessly knocks out an entire armada of bodyguards without ever being perceived, by slipping in between the gaps of their visual awareness and blind spots. After revealing himself, he easily dispatches the elite of Metsudo's bodyguards (including both a former and the current Fang of Metsudo) in one sweep with what he calls "gentle strokes", suggesting that he does not even need to use proper strikes to knock someone out. Xia Yan then quips that even if the Kengan Association had Kanoh Agito, Kure Raian, or Rolón Donaire at their side, it would not make a difference, once again showing how even the strongest of fighters are powerless against Wulong.

Due to his pseudo-immortality, Wulong is very likely the most powerful martial artist alive. His abilities are on such a different level compared to even master martial artists that most cannot even sense it, perceiving him instead as simply an ordinary "middle-aged" man. The powerful feats and skills he has displayed are often mentioned by him to be the result of know-how and correctly applying "principles", indicating that, rather than being a superhuman, his colossal power is simply the result of the vast amount of knowledge he has gained through many lifetimes worth of training.

His mere presence simply shifting to "annoyed" caused Xia Ji to hallucinate being sliced into pieces, the latter stating that he is nothing compared to him. Even two direct subordinates admit that they feared him, even if they weren't targeted themselves. This same pressure even intimidated both Metsudo and Erioh, leaving them unable to move, and by being furious, caused multiple people around him to shiver unknowingly in fear. Even Gilbert Wu and The Other Tokita Niko acknowledge Wulong's superiority and appear loyal to him, despite their own immense might and egos.

When Shen Wulong dealt with the Wowang Syndicate's ambush, Gaoh Mukaku recounted it as a "bloodbath" and "one-sided massacre" despite all five utilizing the Possessing Spirit. In his third confrontation with Mukaku, The Connector avoided and countered all of Mukaku's tricks. No matter how much killing intent Mukaku put into them, his attacks just wouldn't land on Wulong - as if Gaoh never intended to hit him in the first place. Mukaku thought of it as something that surpasses even the prowess of Pre-Intitative. Wulong, even against Mukaku's brute strength, was able to "hold down the point of force" of his spear, completely halting it. Wulong himself claimed that it was something "anyone could do if they knew how it works", before shattering the spear he was holding into splinters by simply applying some force to its tip.

According to Mukaku, no one knows how long The Connector has been around - an old man told him that he has been living in the mountains of China since the age of myths, being considered by the locals to be an immortal sage, since his descendants all took the name "Shen Wulong". As a sage, he was mostly harmless, to the point that he rarely interacted with people - however, on rare occasions, an "aberrant individual" emerged.

1300 years before the events of the manga, The Connector went against the Worm, defeating the Head in a duel, taking the organization under his control. Wulong then declared war on the original Wu Clan, being said to have won decisively - an event that seemingly led to the split of the clan into 3 separate factions. According to Mukaku, Wulong may have thought that by doing all this, he was bringing God's wraith upon the people who annoyed him.

Sometime in the 1930s, Shen Wulong's 'previous self' would wipe out the Dragon Tribe due to them disagreeing with using cloning to truly prolong his life. The only survivor was the leader's grandson, Long Xiu. Xiu would later join a subsidiary known as the Wowang Syndicate, and would use them to initiate an ambush against Shen Wulong. It would prove to be for naught, as Wulong slaughtered all but Long Xiu, with only Long barely managing to survive by using his comrades as human shields. Long Xiu would later flee to Japan and go by the name "Gaoh Mukaku".

Presumably, this Wulong met his end at the hands of a young Katahara Metsudo and a young Kure Erioh during one of their raids of the Worm's hideouts. With the building of the hideout getting set on fire, rather than take revenge, this incarnation of Wulong merely congratulated them, before meeting his fate in the flames.

At first glance, Shen Wulong possesses an aloof, nonchalant attitude toward almost everything. He is very whimsical at times, such as demanding to meet Narushima Koga simply because of his victory over Xia Ji while ignoring the fact he is in a hostile position to the Kengan Association, only to give up immediately upon being pointed out how unreasonable his request was. Wulong's nonchalance forces Xia Yan to play babysitter, giving him reminders that he can't do things on a whim. He nearly revealed his real name to Yamashita Kazuo, before settling on "Jackie Lee."

However, Wulong is also capable of great violence. He considers himself to be the World's "immune system", that the Earth "calls" upon - an aspect of his personality that drives some to say that he is "sick in the head". While not cruel, he does not hesitate to kill those who threaten his life.

Despite this, Wulong is rather humble, claiming anyone can accomplish some of his feats if they know the right "principles" (such as stopping a spear charge by holding down the point of the force - the tip, with his fingers). He also appears to be very keen to compliment those he deems strong (even if they seem quite weak in comparison to his own might), as first demonstrated in his second confrontation with Gaoh Mukaku. In addition, he is very perceptive and analytical, not only remembering the specifics of Mukaku's fighting style 80 years after they last met, but also outright voicing his opinion on the techniques of his opponent, sometimes even explaining how he avoided or stopped a certain attack. He also appears to have a habit of comparing the martial prowess of different people he knows, much to the annoyance of some of them.

Shen Wulong is a tall, muscular man with a shock of long, light hair usually tied back into a low ponytail with stubble on his chin. Willem Wu noted that he's look like a middle aged man. When his ponytail is untied, he closely resembles both Ohma and Ryuki. He is often wears a black tracksuit and sandals.

His most recognizable feature are his eyes which have dual pupils.
