WHO IS DEADLIEST!?

Walter White


"No, you clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in. I am not in danger, Skyler. I am the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot and you think that of me? No. I am the one who knocks!"

- Walter White

Walter "Walt" Hartwell White, also known as "Heisenberg", is a chemist, a former teacher, and recently, a producer of illicit methamphetamine. After being diagnosed with an inoperable lung cancer, Walt decided to provide money for his family after his impending death by producing crystal methamphetamine. He partnered up with his former student, Jesse Pinkman (also a meth "cook") as manufacturing and dealing duo.

Soon after his 50th birthday, Walt passed out while working at the car wash. He was then reluctantly rushed to the hospital via ambulance where he was eventually diagnosed with stage-three terminal lung cancer and given less than two years left to live. This grim prognosis causes a dramatic change in Walt's usual mild-mannered demeanor, and he decides he must take extreme measures to provide for his family's long-term financial security. After being invited by his DEA agent brother-in-law, Hank, to accompany him on a live raid on a methamphetamine lab, Walt has a circumstantial encounter with one of his former students, Jesse Pinkman, whom he finds out is a meth dealer and manufacturer, also referred to as cook, who goes by the name "Captain Cook". With this information, Walt blackmails Jesse into helping him also enter the illegal drug trade on the production side, using his chemistry knowledge to cook remarkably potent and chemically pure "crystal" meth with Jesse to help him distribute it.

Jesse Pinkman
""The thing is, if you just do stuff, and nothing happens, what's it all mean? What's the point?""

- Jesse Pinkman

Jesse Bruce Pinkman is the former partner of Walter White in the methamphetamine drug trade. In high school, Jesse was a small-time methamphetamine user, manufacturer, and dealer. He was also an inattentive student in Walter White's chemistry class. In his mid-20s, Jesse became Walt's business partner in the meth trade. Before his partnership with Walt, he, operating under the pseudonym "Cap'n Cook", added a little Chili Powder to make his methamphetamine stand out in the market.

Walt insisted on making a pure product, however, and thus eschewed the chili powder altogether, patronizingly teaching Jesse how to make "proper" meth. Walt often treated Jesse like a foolish son in constant need of stern correction. Jesse's own family kicked him out because of his drug use. Despite the friction between them, he and Walt have a deep bond of loyalty. Like Walt, Jesse is horrified by the brutality at the higher levels of the drug trade, but does what he thinks is necessary. He wrestles with feelings of guilt about the deaths, all drug-related, of people he's been associated with, especially his girlfriend Jane Margolis. He often attended Narcotics Anonymous meetings to help deal with these feelings.

Later on in the series, Jesse's loyalty to Walter becomes strained upon learning from Saul that Walt tricked him into helping him bring down Gustavo Fring by poisoning his girlfriend's son, Brock. As a result, he teams up with Hank Schrader, Walt's DEA brother-in-law, to bring Walt down. They were almost successful, but were stopped by Jack's White Supremacist Gang before Hank could make the arrest. After Hank was killed by Jack, Jesse was later taken prisoner by the gang and forced into labor as a meth-cook slave which he complied with for the sake of his ex-girlfriend Andrea and her son Brock, even though the former was killed when he tried to escape. During the final episode, Jesse was freed by Walt, leaving him mentally and emotionally broken from the events that occurred throughout the course of the series.

=Yukitaka Shiki and Ei Makihara=

Yukitaka Shiki
"Those drugs cost about 450 thousand yen a month. In other words, I need about 5 million for my sister to survive a year... 50 million for ten years... 100 million for twenty... Should I keep killing evil people in order for my sister to life?"

- Yukitaka Shiki

"You should kill them. Sensei, you saved me, you didn't do anything wrong. You're an ally of justice!"

- Itsuka, in response

Shiki Yukitaki is a high school teacher living in Tokyo, Japan who, one night, was approached by a beautiful woman in a bar, who asks him if he would be willing to commit murder for 5 million yen (about $50,000 US). Shiki refuses, but the woman persists, asking if he would if the target was also a murderer. Shiki states that he might, but it would have to be for more than 5 million yen. After work the next day, Shiki is approached by the woman again, who picks him up in her car and takes him to a bar, where he is introduced to a Chinese man named Yan and a Tokyo Police detective named Kuzumi. The woman, who introduces him as Erika Nakagawa and tells him to that Yan is the getaway driver, and that he and Kuzumi are going to kill a wealthy shipping mogul connected in Yakuza murders and drug dealing for 5 million yen, and they would be receive further, higher-paying contracts if they succeeded. Erika also states that the target stored a large amount of money in the basement, which was theirs if they could steal it. Shiki and Kuzumi agree, Shiki somewhat reluctantly. Shiki and Kuzumi enter the target's home and immobilize him, before Shiki cuts his throat with a butterfly knife. Shiki and Kuzumi then ransack the house, making it look like a robbery, and Shiki steals a set of keys to the basement. When Shiki opens the door, however, he finds not money, but a well furnished room, where a girl was held in prison. The girl, who states her name is Itsuki, says that the man they killed was her father, but feels no despair at his loss, as he had kept her imprisoned in the basement for ten years, since she was eight. Itsuki, it soon becomes apparent, was imprisoned because of her mysterious ability to read the mind of any person she comes into physical contact with.

Having nowhere else to take her, Shiki takes Itsuki back to his apartment, where she begins living with him, while Shiki and Kuzumi are sent to assassinate more targets, including a Yakuza scam artist, a serial killer, and several high-ranking Yakuza. During the course of the assassination of the scam artist, Shiki and Kuzumi are forced to kill a second man who tries to pull a gun, but is overpowered and stabbed to death before he can attack. Shortly after eliminating the serial killer, Shiki and Kuzumi themselves fall victim to an assassination attempt by a close friend of the victim, Ei Makihara. Shiki and Kuzumi, however, disable Ei-kun, but cannot bring themselves to kill him. Makihara is held imprisoned in Shiki's apartment for about two weeks, until another Yakuza thug named Maeda comes to rescue him. Shiki is not at the apartment at the time, being on a school and Makihara is freed, however, Maeda then attempts to rape Itsuki. Makihara is disgusted by this and beats Maeda to death with a frying pan. When Shiki returns, Ei states that he is now a target for the Yakuza, and, however reluctantly, aids Shiki in eliminating a group of Yakuza executives using Maeda's handguns. Ei later becomes a second roommate to Shiki, along with Itsuka.

Shiki's reasons for committing these murders are revealed shortly after his first assassination. Yukitaka's older sister, Natsuka is dying of cancer, and Shiki is distraught they he might lose his sister, having already lost his mother in his teenage years, because she cannot afford the treatment necessary for her to survive. Because of this, Shiki agrees to work as an assassin in order to raise the money necessary to save his sister's life.

Ei Makihara
"I hit him with the intent to kill... and then he really died.... He's dead, I've killed a man..."

- Ei Makihara contemplating his actions after killing Maeda

Ei Makihara was a young man working for a Yakuza-affiliated con-man named Ichiro Shibuya, who was involved in scamming numerous people out of their life's savings, driving some of them to suicide. This made them to target of the vigilante organization Yukitaki Shiki and Detective Kuzumi worked for, who sent them to assassinate Shibuya and make it look like an robbery gone wrong. Kuzumi and Shiki entered the building where Shibuya based his operation and stabbed him to death. As they did so, however, they were caught in the act by Bizen, another employee of Shibuya's who drew a Beretta and tried to shoot them. However, in the close quarters, Shiki and Kuzumi managed to disarm and stab him to death.

Ei later arrives on the scene and discovers Bizen, a close friend of his, dead. Ei takes Bizen's gun and hunts down the perpetrators, eventually encountering Shiki and Kuzumi shortly after killing a serial killer. Like Bizen, Kuzumi and Shiki catch him by surprise and disarm Makihara, but do not kill him. Instead Shiki imprisons him in his apartment for a period of time, until a Yakuza hitman, Maeda, enters the apartment while Shiki is away on a school trip and rescues him. Then, Maeda attempts to rape Itsuki, a girl living with Shiki. This infuriates Makihara, who had become friendly with Itsuki during his captivity, and a clubs Maeda to death with a frying pan.

Kuzumi discovers the scene and tells Makihara that he is best off siding with them, as the Yakuza would kill him as soon as they found he killed Maeda. Makihara reluctantly agrees, and becomes involved in their vigilante assassination scheme.

=Weapons=

Kitchen Knife (Walther White)
The term "kitchen knife" or "chef's knife" typically refers to a knife with a triangular point, typically made of stainless steel, although versions made of titanium and high-strength ceramics also exist. The knife is obviously not designed as a weapon, but due to its ubiquity, kitchen knives may often be used as a murder weapon, both in real life and in fiction.

Butterfly Knife (Yukitaka Shiki)
A balisong, or butterfly knife is a Filipino knife with two counterrotating handles with a grove in the center that conceals the blade when the knife is not in use. A skilled user can open the handles extremely quickly, meaning the weapon can be drawn more quickly than a conventional folding knife. For this reason, the Balisong is often prohibited in many countries and US states, much like the switchblade knife. The knife has a stronger point for stabbing, and when thrust into a target, can cause severe damage.

119's Edge
Yukitaka's Butterfly Knife, as it is actually designed from combat.

Claw Hammer (Walter White)
A claw hammer is a tool primarily used for pounding nails into, or extracting nails from, some other object. Generally, a claw hammer is associated with woodworking but is not limited to use with wood products. It is not suitable for heavy hammering on metal surfaces (such as in machining work). It is a very common tool and can be used as an lethal improvised weapon

A claw hammer can be said to look roughly like the letter "T" with the handle being the long part, and the head being the line across the top which looks like a "t". One side of the head is flat with either a smooth or textured surface and is used for impacting another surface. This side is used as a blunt weapon powerful enough to crush a man's skull with enough force. The other side The other side of the head curves down and splits in the middle forming a "V" shape with a thin end. This sides thin edge gives it more pressure and piercing ability.

Metal Pipe (Yukitaka Shiki)
Yukitaka uses a metal pipe as a blunt melee weapon during the assassination of a serial killer. The pipe is about two feet long, and presumably made of steel.

119's Edge
The claw hammer is lighter, can strike faster, and a has a more ergonomic grip, however, the pipe is longer and heavier. Both weapons have their advantages. Even

Shovel (Jesse Pinkman)
A shovel is (obviously) a simple tool used for digging holes and moving dirt in various gardening and construction applications. The shovel, will, for the purposes of this match, have a steel spade-style blade, which, when used as a weapon, can deliver severe blunt and limited sharp force trauma. In fact, military issue shovels issued in World War I were found to be more effective close combat weapons than bayonets. Jesse Pinkman nevers uses a shovel with a weapon, but uses it to retrieve buried contraband while working with Mike Ehrmantrout. However, he will have the tool with him for the purposes of this match.

Frying Pan (Ei Makihara)
A frying pan is a type of cookware used for frying foods, often used in the preparation of bacon and eggs. While it is not intended as a weapon, its heavy weight, sturdy steel construction, and ubiquity means that it may be used as such, in both real life and fiction. The frying pan can be used as a simple blunt instrument, as well as a crude shield, blocking with the round body of the pan.

119's Edge
While the frying pan could be used as a shield, in the end, I give the edge to Jesse Pinkman's Shovel shovel for its greater reach.

Beretta Model 92 (Yukitaka Shiki, Ei Makihara, and Jesse Pinkman
The Beretta 92 is a series of 9x19 Parabellum firing pistols developed by the Italian company, Beretta. Based around older Beretta pistols, the 92 was first produced in 1975. The pistol has been modified to accompany larger rounds like the .40 S&W and fire in three round bursts, featured in the Beretta 93R. Dozens of countries have adopted the pistol and have been used by their police departments and armies. The M9 was specifically designed for the United States military and is popularly used because of its light weight, low recoil, accuracy, and fast rate of fire. Yukitaki and Ei's Beretta's will have a black finish, while Pinkman's will be a stainless steel Inox version, however, apart from the finish, they will be identical. All Berettas in this match will all be 9mm version with a 15-round magazine and a range of 50 meters.

Smith and Wesson 4506 (Walter White)
The Smith and Wesson 4506 is a semi-automatic handgun manufactured from 1988 to 1999 by Smith and Wesson. The weapon is made of stainless steel, and is thus resistant to harsh conditions. The pistol is similar in appearance to an M1911 in some respects and, like the 1911, is chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge, however, it can also fire the more powerful .45 Super cartridge if a specialized spring is attached. For the purposes of this match, Walt's S&W will be assumed to have this spring. The weapon has an eight-round magazine, and will be assumed for the purposes of this match to have a similar range to the M1911, about 50 m.

119's Edge
The Beretta Model 92 is used by both sides, however, the advantage here is not quality, but quantity, both Shiki and Ei have a Beretta, meaning they will be able to fire off more shots before reloading than Walter and Jesse Pinkman, as Walt has a 4506, which as a smaller magazine than the Beretta. Walt's 4506 has superior stopping power, however, in the end, in a fight between two people with minimal training, the one who can fire more shots is most likely to score a kill.

Mercury Fulminate (Walther White)
Mercury fulminate is highly shock-sensitive explosive formerly used in firearm primers. Walt uses a piece of mercury fulminate as a sort of improvised flashbang, with enough force to blast out the windows of a building. However, Walt and at least some of the other people in building survive, suggesting it was used as more of a flashbang than a lethal weapon. However, if it lands near a window or other fragile object, it may produce lethal shrapnel, or cause an explosion if it goes off inside the meth lab/RV. For the purposes of this match, the fulminate WILL work as it does in the show in spite of the results of an episode of Mythbusters suggesting otherwise.

Pressurized Gas Canister (Ei Makihara)
Pressurized gas canisters are used to store various gases, including acetylene, propane, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen under high pressure. The cylinders are typically about four feet tall and up to about one foot wide. These canisters can be extremely dangerous if punctured, by a gunshot, for instance. The sudden release of pressure, may result in the container rocketing lethally across the room, with enough force to break through a cinder block wall. If the gas inside is flammable, there is also a risk of explosion. In the manga, Makihara was at the scene of a gas explosion when a canister of pressurized welding fuel was shot, though he did not actually trigger it. For the purposes of this match, there will be gas canisters strewn around the location of the battle.

119's Edge
Both improvised explosives are extremely dangerous, can be triggered by gunshots, and could potentially harm the user. I give a slight edge to Walt's mercury fulminate as it seems less likely to be set off accidentally (smaller target), and is portable, allowing it to be used regardless of the target's position. =X-Factors=

Explanations
Yukitaki takes the highest level of combat experience, having worked as an assassin and killed several targets. Walter takes second place, having taken on drug lords such as Tuco Salamanca, Gustavo Fring, and Jack Welker, however, in both of those cases, he eliminated them through either blind luck (in the case of Tuco), or a that, combined with out-of-the-box thinking and manipulation of others (in the case of Gus and Jack). In terms of training, none of the four have any real combat training, so that simplifies things. In terms of physicality, but Shiki and Ei have an edge on Walter and Jesse, as a Walter has lung cancer, and Jesse is the user of multiple drugs, including marijuana, heroin, and crystal meth, which may have impacted his health. Pinkman's drug abuse could have also affected his mental health, as the death of his girlfriend, Jane Margolis definitely did. Walter's mental health is also negatively his lung cancer, and Ei's by the death of his friend, Bizen. Only Yukitaki can be considered close to normal, though still deeply affected by his sister's condition and the desperate situation he has been forced into to save her life. In terms of intelligence, Walter White takes the definite edge, having repeatedly used his mastery of chemistry and out-of-the-box thinking to get him out of difficult situations. Jesse, while he may be a drug addict and was a problem student in high school, is not stupid, as is shown when he manages to produce crystal meth of a purity second only to Walter White's own product. As far as Yukitaka is concerned, his intelligence is above average, and Ei's is more average. Finally, in terms of marksmanship, all four of them have had little practice using guns, and have mostly fired at close ranges when using firearms. Walt, however, takes a slight edge for at least having used guns more than the others.
