Gusano was the personal bodyguard to the biologist [[Greta Karbone]] on her private island. After securing a great deal of contraband materials such as [[Gyaos]] DNA, and radioactive materials at low prices through Ukraine, they successfully were able to clone Gyaos and create several other mutants.

History
Gamera: The Guardian of the Universe
Gamera: The Guardian of the Universe #1
Gusano was the personal bodyguard to the biologist Greta Karbone on her private island. After securing a great deal of contraband materials such as Gyaos DNA, and radioactive materials at low prices through Ukraine, they successfully were able to clone Gyaos and create several other mutants. However, one day, the Gyaos clone grew too big for its containment jar and escaped. It managed to eat their assistant Carlos. With Karbone under the alias of Patty Smith, invited Mayumi Nagamine, an Ornithologist who had been instrumental in Gyaos' defeat one year prior, to the island under the guise of having seen a thought-to-be extinct bird. Gusano sailed the two to the island, where he remarked that they should search for the bird in the morning. Nagamine inquired if he was afraid of the dark, and Karbone, disguised as Patty Smith, said that he had had an encounter with a nocturnal creature that had left him in fear of darkness, likely in reference to Gyaos' escape. While going through the jungle to the laboratory, Nagamine identified a pile of Gyaos droppings, which lead to her telling Gusano to call the Mainland Authorities about the new Gyaos. Karbone then took Nagamine to the lab with the mutants, where she and Gusano described their predicament. Karbone then unmasked herself and revealed her plan to Nagamine: to force her into creating new Supermonsters under their control.

With Dr. Nagamine as their captive, Gusano apologized for her rough treatment, but encouraged the Ornithologist to comply with Karbone's demands, as he found the doctor to be "no fun" when she was angry. At that moment, Karbone came in to say that Gamera had destroyed Gyaos as a means of getting Nagamine to join them, but the two entered a short argument, ending with Karbone ordering for Gusano to tie Nagamine to her chair. Gusano apologetically began to search for a soft rope. Nagamine thanked him for taking her comfort into consideration before asking how Gusano had come to work with Karbone.
