In the game, there's only one character: a bald man sitting in a barrel, swinging a hammer.

The game's protagonist, Bennett Jazzuo, is the most powerful warrior of the Kingdom of Green, highly skilled in swordsmanship. Every triumphant return from his battles is met with an enthusiastic reception from the kingdom's citizens, creating a scene that often surpasses even the celebrations of the old king's birthday. This year, during the king's birthday celebration, the ministers presented a treasure from the East: a massive cannon made of iron that could produce thunderous booms. The old king was delighted with this gift, but Bennett had a plan. He persuaded the king to allow him to personally test the cannon and ordered the guards to stuff himself into the cannon's barrel. Bennett himself packed the cannon with gunpowder using a hammer. With a deafening blast, the cannon shattered, and the valiant Bennett, along with the iron barrel, disappeared into the distant sky. To find his way back home, Bennett embarks on a journey of ascent.
