Gentle Nakamura was a Japanese street racer and one of the "Four Kings" of the Devil Killers racing gang in Fukuoka. He acquired his nickname for his taste for expensive clothes, fast cars, and artistic manner of street racing, and he often patterned his dress after Vito Corleone. Nakamura was among the earliest members of the Devil Killers, having joined them in the 1980s and improved his skills over the next several decades before becoming Devil Takamura's right-hand man. In December 2012, he lost a highway race to Nakasu Taxi driver Kazuma Kiryu, who had made enemies with the Devil Killers.
