A huge and dumb young monk. He is the grandchild of Nicotine. One day, he and Nicotine got into a huge fight. This caused Gaira to leave his home and venture on his own. During his travels, he witnessed Zankuro killing an entire village and was terrified by the sight. After Zankuro left the scene, Gaira was angered at himself for fearing Zankuro. He decided to go out on a journey to hunt Zankuro. During his search, he found out that Zankuro was killed. He searched for his body and buried it and built him a grave. This grave was named Onizuka. But shortly after, the grave was destroyed. He then sensed that Zankuro's soul was resurrected and sealed once again. Feeling that the one who sealed Zankuro's soul is too dangerous, he heads out to Shimabara to find out who it is.

Miscellaneous Facts and Notes

In his SS0 ending, Nicotine, Gen-An, Earthquake, Seiger and Wanfu appear. They yell at Gaira asking why he's in the game why they aren't. Then they realize it must be the hair and shave Gaira's hair off. After Gaira is bald, they go on about how they are a team.
