Tetsu

Tetsu is a former prisoner of Udon's prisoner mines.

Appearance
Tetsu is a man of average height with a crescent-shaped scar on the left side of his face. He has turquoise hair formed in a pompadour at the front and a topknot at the back. At Udon, he wore a standard prisoner outfit.

In the anime, he wears a black and yellow striped kimono with a white tasuki after discarding the prison uniform.

41 years ago, in the anime, Tetsu wore a lilac kimono. In the manga, he was dressed in a light-colored kimono with a pattern of four squares that form a larger square.

Personality
Tetsu holds strong resentment towards the Beasts Pirates and enjoyed seeing Luffy rebel. However, his spirit has been broken by his defeat and imprisonment, causing him to comply with Babanuki's orders instead of taking part in the rebellion. In the anime, he also showed himself to be a rather restless person, which forced Hyogoro to calm him down. Before Kozuki Oden became a hero of the country, Tetsu was afraid of him and even hid his pig from him so that it would not fall under his feet.

Abilities and Powers
Tetsu has some physical strength as he managed to restrain Monkey D. Luffy together with other prisoners. However, when he was younger, he made considerable efforts to raise a large pig in his arms.

Weapons
In the anime, Tetsu wields a sword.

Past
During the next return of Kozuki Oden to the capital, everyone became agitated and began to hide their wives and daughters in a hurry. Tetsu, along with another man, also removed their pets from his path.

Sometime after the death of Kozuki Oden, Tetsu was imprisoned in the Prisoner Mine in Udon for rebellion against Kaidou.

Wano Country Arc
When Luffy started a rebellion in the Prisoner Mine, Tetsu and other prisoners obeyed Babanuki's order to restrain him. However, they released Luffy when threatened by Kikunojo.
