An ancient scroll that, when recited out loud, grants whoever reads it to turn the world into whatever he/she wants it to be. A person deemed worthy to protect the scroll is chosen and that person is granted invincibility which only lasts for 60 years, so another guardian is chosen. During World War 2, in a monastery, the new guardian is chosen. Just as he is given the scroll by the previous protector the monastery is suddenly under attack by some Nazis, the leader wants the scroll for obvious reasons. So the guardian escapes by jumping off a cliff. For 60 years, the Nazi chase him all over the world. And just as his time is ending he searches for his successor and the one he thinks it is, is a tough street kid named Gar. But Gar is not exactly a righteous person.
