Shishilian

"Full Power" Shishilian is a lion mink and the captain of the Inuarashi Musketeer Squad, as well as one of the Three Inuarashi Musketeers leading the squad. Shishilian is a lion mink with a curly red mane that falls down to his chest, a long and curly tail, and a swirly black handlebar mustache. He wears a purple cape and a large black hat with a feathery pink plume over a olive colored dress shirt bound with a bandolier, black pants held up by a thick red belt, brown boots with puffy furred pink rims, and purple gloves. Shishilian approaches every situation with his entire being in a very over-the-top and dramatic manner, such as making a flying leap before kneeling in gratitude. If people talk about "sweet" things like affection and sugar in his presence, Shishilian will throw them into the Bottomless Valley near Inuarashi's sanatorium and force them to climb back up because he despises such things. Despite his aversion to "sweet" emotions, Shishilian is more than willing to express gratitude, having knelt before the newly-arrived Straw Hat Pirates while proclaiming that he was forever indebted to them and later tried to accompany Monkey D. Luffy on his journey to stop Sanji's wedding alongside the other two Inuarashi Musketeers. He was also saddened by the death of his rival Pedro and paid respects at his grave marker. As one of the Three Inuarashi Musketeers, Shishilian has authority over the rest of the Musketeers.


Shishilian is an extremely powerful warrior even among the minks. Like his fellow minks, Shishilian can use Electro. Shishilian has extreme level of superhuman strength, as the force of his sword strikes can easily cut down multiple Artificial Zoan Devil Fruit users of the Beast Pirates. Even when injured, Shishilian can throw down multiple members of the Musketeers to roughen them up. In the anime, he even lifted an entire giant pineapple building and threw it down on his subordinates. Shishilian is also extremely fast and agile. In the anime, he could instantly cut down multiple Gifters, including the Gifters Grip Trio, without giving them time to retaliate. Shishilian is extremely skilled in swordsmanship. In the anime, alongside his fellow Inuarashi Musketeers, Shishilian expertly cut down numerous Gifters who were powerful enough to brutally overpower the other Musketeers with their Artificial Zoan Devil Fruit abilities, including the Gifters Grip Trio.


Shishilian's sword style is highly aggressive, reflecting his fierce personality of going all out, swiftly cutting down numerous enemies in an instant.  Shishilian wields a rapier, which he can channel Electro through. Sometime in the past, Shishilian tried training Carrot in swordsmanship, but Pedro commented that Carrot lacked the talent in using a sword, much to Shishilian's annoyance. When the Beasts Pirates, led by Jack, invaded Zou in search of Raizo, Shishilian and the rest of the Inuarashi Musketeer Squad fought against them, with Shishilian himself saving Wanda from a Gifter while ordering the agile Musketeers to lead the townspeople to the forest. When dusk fell, Shishilian and the musketeers fell back to allow Nekomamushi and the Guardians to take over the battle. The battle against the Beast Pirates lasted for five days. On the fifth day of the battle, Jack lost his patience and unleashed Caesar Clown's Koro gas, which left the Mink Tribe poisoned and drastically weakened. As one of the strongest mink warriors, Shishilian was crucified and tortured for information regarding Raizo, though he denied having any knowledge of the ninja and his whereabouts. The following day, Jack left Zou after hearing about Donquixote Doflamingo's defeat and capture, and the minks were later saved when Sanji and his group came to Zou.


While guarding Inuarashi's sanatorium, Shishilian threw several minks into the Bottomless Valley for speaking of sweet things in his presence. When Wanda brought the Straw Hat Pirates to see Inuarashi, Shishilian knelt before them and expressed his gratitude before allowing them to enter the sanatorium. At 6:00 P.M., Shishilian explained how the city-dwellers were active during the day while the forest-dwellers were active at night before falling asleep. The following day, as Bariete rang the bell and spoke of the arrival of samurai, Shishilian and the rest of the minks rushed to Kurau City. When Kin'emon and Kanjuro revealed themselves, Shishilian and the minks welcomed them and revealed that Raizo was on Zou before standing proudly at having kept his presence a secret. Kin'emon showed Shishilian and the other minks the crest of the Kozuki Family on his back to confirm his allegiance. When Inuarashi and Nekomamushi reluctantly called a truce for the sake of Kozuki Momonosuke, whom they recognized as their lord, Shishilian and the rest of the minks were overjoyed. When Inuarashi, Nekomamushi, the samurai, and the pirates returned from the Whale Tree with Raizo, Zou began shaking as Zunesha started crying out, throwing Shishilian and the others into a state of panic. Jack had returned and was attempting to destroy Zou by killing Zunesha, who retaliated on Momonosuke's command and sank Jack's fleet with one blow, calming down Shishilian and the others in the process. Later on, he requested to accompany the Sanji retrieval team to Whole Cake Island, but was told to stay behind on Zou by Nekomamushi. Shishilian later went with Inuarashi to Wano Country. He and his group later found a severely injured Tama at a wasteland. At Mt. Atama, Shishilian witnessed Inuarashi's clash with Shutenmaru. Sometime later, the Musketeers worked to steal food and weapons from the Beasts Pirates and they left a note saying that Shutenmaru and his gang were responsible for the thefts. Prior to the raid on Onigashima, Shishilian, Wanda, and Carrot were later at the place where graves for Pedro and Yasuie were placed. While having a discussion with Nami, Robin, Wanda, and Carrot in Amigasa Village, the Three Inuarashi Musketeers talked about how the weather conditions could affect their chances in battle. On the day of the Fire Festival, Shishilian joined the Straw Hats on the Thousand Sunny as they entered the battle with the Beasts Pirates. After Jinbe arrived to aid the rebels, Shishilian joined Law and the Scabbards on the Polar Tang and volunteered to lead the minks. He also took part in their discussion on how to enter Onigashima.

Kurozumi Orochi

Kurozumi Orochi is the current shogun of the Wano Country and an ally of Kaido, one of the Yonko. Due to his actions and role, he is the secondary antagonist of the Wano Country Arc and one of the central antagonists of the Yonko Saga. Orochi is a rather large man with a big head and stocky build. He appears to be balding, with his dark purple hair being mostly seen on the sides and back of his head, and he has a long topknot in the back, as well as a thin mustache that sticks upward. His two upper canine teeth are longer than his other teeth and are blunt. They remain blunt in his hybrid form. He wears a gold kimono with a fan-shaped pattern on it, a blue robe with flowers on it, as well as a crown on his head. In his transformed state, the main head is a darker olive green with red scales while the other heads are a lighter shade with yellow scales. Every head has black horns, orange eyebrows, and light purple scales. Each head also has red eyes with blue irises and purple tongues. As one of the last members of the Kurozumi Family, who were disgraced and stripped of their power and authority, Orochi developed immense greed and thirst for power from an early age due to being forced to live in poverty since birth. When he worked as a servant for Yasuie, Orochi outwardly exhibited a timid and servile attitude, but this was all an act to steal money by preying on the sympathies of others.


Having been twisted by the Kurozumi Family's unfair persecution since his childhood, Orochi is an extremely cruel and oppressive tyrant who takes joy in making his subjects suffer as revenge for his family's persecution. Under his rule, the people of Wano have suffered great famines. The officials under him also harshly enforce his regime, and he collaborated with Kaido to not only kill Kozuki Oden, but also allowed the Beasts Pirates to turn Wano into a nearly complete wasteland in exchange for borrowing Kaido's power and protection, disregarding his country and people in favor of his own self-interest. Due to his power and connections, he is completely fearless and arrogant, as he proclaimed to CP-0 that he does not fear the Celestial Dragons nor the Marines. He even shot one of the CP-0 agents, confident that they could do nothing against him. Although he hates his country, Orochi desires to create an image of him being a heroic and strong ruler with a happy populace. During his reign, he has had schools teach propaganda about him being the one to defeat Oden and maintain the country's isolation, when in reality Kaido was the one to do those. When meeting with CP-0, he claimed that the citizens around them were happy, although this reality only exists in the wealthy Flower Capital. To give the impoverished citizens the facade of happiness, Orochi put defective SMILE fruits in their food supply to render them unable to express negative emotions, and he sadistically danced in delight when in the midst of the laughing Ebisu Town citizens who in reality were deeply sorrowful over the loss of their great friend Yasuie.


Orochi is extremely domineering and unreasonable with absolutely no tolerance of anyone defying him or speaking ill of him, even if it is out of his earshot and in casual discussion. He has made those actions a capital crime, which the Gifters enforce. He is petty enough to mercilessly attack and kill anyone who offends him, whether they are a man, woman, or child (though may hesitate with a woman he has feelings for). He gets angry if his target ends up being spared from his wrath, as shown when Kyoshiro struck down Komurasaki to give her mercy. He also will not let a grudge go, as after Toko escaped his grasp, he hired an assassin to hunt her down. He does not tolerate failure from his ranks, as he sent the assassin to the Prisoner Mine for failing to kill Toko. When Zoro and Sanji protected Toko, Orochi was utterly enraged at their interference with his execution, and ordered his subordinates to kill Zoro and Sanji in cold blood. Before he left Rasetsu Town, he gave his men specific orders to kill the Straw Hats at all costs for defying him. Orochi will put the blame on others for events that displease him, such as blaming Toko for causing Komurasaki to appear to be killed even though he was in an uncontrollable rage against her for defying him. Orochi has proven himself to be quite hypocritical. While he is propagandized as a hero for defeating the Kozuki Family and maintaining Wano's isolationism, Orochi has allied himself with Kaido, a pirate who in turn has various connections to the outside world. Orochi allied with Kaido by funding weapons factories, and he is willing to broker weapon trades with outside parties desperate enough to match his exorbitant demands. One such party was CP-0, which Orochi first brokered with in exchange for a battleship before demanding that they give him Vegapunk to continue trading. He is also extremely ungrateful, as he abused both Yasuie and Oden's kindness of giving him a job and money by using what was given to him to further his own agenda, and then betraying them by stripping them of everything before ultimately killing them. Additionally, he is dishonorable and typically does not honor deals, as he had no intention of leaving Wano despite agreeing to do so in exchange for Oden humiliating himself for five years. When Oden made a deal with Kaido for him and his retainers to go free if he withstood being boiled for an hour, Orochi changed the deal after Oden survived the hour and ordered for him to be shot to death.


As shogun, Orochi has full control over Wano Country and its inhabitants. He has government officials working under him who enforce his rule, and has a group of elite ninja known as the Orochi Oniwabanshu as well as samurai known as the Mimawarigumi who serve and protect him without question. He also possesses the backing of Kaido of the Yonko, so if he and his subordinates are threatened, Kaido will hear about it and deal with the threat, which is proven in the past when Kaido brutally ended a massive rebellion staged by countless samurais banded together led by the daimyos serving the Kozuki Family against Orochi's new rule. He believes that, with Kaido's support, not even the World Government nor World Nobles can overthrow him nor topple Wano. Orochi has an extremely sharp intuition and a strategic cunning as he orchestrated Kanjuro to infiltrate the Nine Red Scabbards as a mole. Unlike most of his complacent subordinates, Orochi was right to take Toki's prophecy seriously, which allowed him to correctly deduce that Oden's son and retainers are still alive and that certain incidents around Wano Country are connected to Kin'emon, which is confirmed after his spy Kanjuro contacted him after Kanjuro traveled twenty years into the future. He whole-heartedly believes that they are planning to overthrow him and his ally Kaido, even though there is no concrete evidence to support his suspicions. Through his spy, Orochi received information regarding Kozuki Hiyori, the time travel of the Nine Red Scabbards, and the assembly location and numbers of the enemy alliance. This allowed him to correctly figure out their plans and take effective actions to prevent them from mobilizing, by destroying the cave containing the Thousand Sunny and blowing up all the bridges connecting the country's regions ahead of time. However, Orochi's efforts failed due to Kin'emon misreading Yasuie's message as well as Orochi miscalculating the distances of the provinces, acting too late in stopping them. In the Flower Capital school, Orochi has been lauded as being a powerful swordsman said to utilize a sword-style known as Orochi Nitoryu, literally meaning "Orochi Two Swords Style"), and according to propaganda, he uses this style to defeat Kozuki Oden and his retainers. However, this is all false information to paint him as being a powerful Shogun, as it was Kaido who defeated Oden, with Orochi not even being present during the battle. After hearing Toko laughing after his raving about the Kozuki Family, he used a katana to slice wildly through a thin wall while completely missing Toko, displaying little to no skill in swordsmanship. Orochi has great marksmanship skills, having been seen wielding a flintlock pistol and rifle. He was able to quickly draw his pistol and shoot a CP-0 agent in the head with it, although the agent was unharmed by the bullet. With his rifle, he was able to shoot Shimotsuki Yasuie to death from a great distance away, and was shown aiming directly at Toko's head when trying to shoot her.
