Hao's followers

Hao's followers is one of the three largest groups in the Shaman Tournament.

About
After escaping the Asakura Family right after his birth, Asakura Hao began traveling the world in search of other Shamans. Because Hao regards money as a primary reason behind the corruption in society, he refuses to use it and has his group follow the philosophy of being completely self-sufficient - even if it means stealing something to obtain it.

Ashil

Ashil (known as Basil in the English Anime) is a powerful shaman loyal to Hao who took Boris' role of being the first on screen victim of the X-Laws and their Archangels. Ashil is rather cocky and pretentious, believing it would be easy to kill Yoh and his friends because of his easily regenerating spirit. Ashil has deep feelings for Hao and is jealous of Hao's interest in Yoh, allowing his deeper feelings to overpower his loyalty. He defied Hao to "accidentally" kill Yoh, when he was ordered to have Yoh alive and to kill his friends. When the battle starts, "Big Guy" Bill Burton captures Yoh and makes sure that he doesn't reach his friends, who are fighting Ashil. Hao following shaman seems to be very powerful, capable of defeating all of Yoh's friends. In the end Ashil is shot by Marco of the X-Laws and the Archangel Michael.
