History
The Shie Hassaikai (Japanese: 死し穢え八はっ斎さい會かい?, Hepburn: Shie Hassaikai?, literally meaning the "Eight Precepts of Death") were originally a Yakuza group that operated in Japan. Originally, it was led by a man going by the name of 'The Boss' who came to raise Kai Chisaki. Their leader believed that gangsters would only follow a boss who had a code and morals. This generation of gangsters though fell from prominence when Quirks when All-Might and heroes rose in status. As a result, the Yakuza were forced into the shadows with them having to live a life under constant surveillance.
To help circumvent their losses, Chisaki began to start trading in drugs though this was against the express wishes of his Boss. He was later asked by the Boss to help understand the nature of his granddaughter's Quirk after the girl was abandoned by her mother when her ability killed her father. Initially, it was believed that Eri's power was similar to Chisaki's but upon closer examination Kai believed it was far different. From her powers, he came upon a new strategy that he believed would save the Shie Hassaikai from fading away. This included harvesting Eri's blood to create a drug that destroyed Quirk's which they could sell to supervillains whilst selling the cure to heroes. As the drug was made from Eri, it meant that they would hold monopoly over its development thus restoring the organisation to its former glory. The Boss, however, was appalled at this and believed that Chisaki should not trade away his humanity and become a monster in the process. In desperation, Chisaki decided to forcibly enact his plans and used his powers to render the Boss unconscious with him being in a coma-like state. He then set himself as the new successor of the organisation in order to enact his strategy with the intention of restoring the Boss after he completed his goal. This saw him using Eri as part of his experiments in better understanding and exploiting her powers where he simply restored her after her body was too badly hurt from the work. To test its power, early versions of the drug were sent onto the black market so they could test its effectiveness. Eventually, Chisaki looked to absorb the power of the League of Villains into his organisation to increase its power.
Overview
In appearance, the Shi Hassaikai were a criminal organisation and a part of the Yakuza who engaged in various illegal activities.
An elite group within the group were the Eight Bullets (鉄砲玉 八斎衆 Teppōdama Hassaishū?) that consisted of powerful and dangerous Quirk users.
Many of the lower ranking members of the organisation had loyalty to the former Boss of the Shie Hassaikai. It was this trait that led to them following Overhaul after he became the new head of the gang.
