When Beet is a little boy he decides he is going to become a Vandel Buster like the Zenon Warriors, a group of Busters he admires. Due to a tragic turn of events, the Zenon Warriors disappear, leaving behind their Saiga (soul weapon) within Beet. Beet swears to end the dark age, and take revenge for the loss of the Zenon Warriors.
