However in reality Kusho always held a dark side, believing n sacrificing the few for the many, which is why he went along with Zed's plan to fake his own death.

Despite regarding Zed as his true son he takes great delight in tormenting him over his past failures, attempting to convince him that he has chosen to walk in darkness of his own volition
