Urashima

Urashima is a sumo wrestler and yokozuna of Wano Country's Flower Capital. He is also of samurai descent, thus giving him an elevated social status.

Appearance
Urashima is a very large man with round rosey cheeks, a downward-pointed nose, thin eyes, a wrinkled forehead, small ears, and a double chin. He has long, dark-colored hair that he wears in a topknot with two braids on the side, and he has a slight widow's peak; the topknot has been cut off by Kiku during his attempt to capture her. Urashima wears a large, dark-colored samurai gi that has a flower emblem on the sleeves and a square pattern on the rest. He also wears geta sandals on his disproportionately small feet, and he has two katanas, which he wears on his left hip.

Personality
Urashima is full of himself, bragging about his position in the capital of Wano Country. He is prone to deciding things on his own, disregarding the wishes of those whom his decisions might effect, which is shown in his unflappable determination to marry Kiku despite her disinterest. However, he is at least perceptive enough to detect potential threats like he did when he encountered Zoro at Tsuru's tea shop, prompting him to take his leave. His self-centeredness is fueled by his high position, as he could not comprehend Kiku rejecting him when he had the power, social standing, and wealth to give her anything she wanted, and he is easily susceptible to people who voice support for his desires and boost his pride. Conversely, he treats any lower-class person that he does not care about with great disdain, calling them filthy and insignificant, and even rudely knocking over the food they offered him without so much as an apology, instead ordering them to cook their pet for him. He is willing to abuse his position to achieve what he desires, agreeing with Mouseman's suggestion of doing so to force Kiku to his side. He also dislikes leftovers.

Abilities and Powers
As a yokozuna, the highest ranking sumo wrestler. Urashima is an extremely skilled and formidable sumo wrestler. Supplemented with his massive strength which is stated to be "almost inhuman," he is capable of sending heavy sumo wrestlers flying great distances away, and most of his opponents end up having many of their bones broken. He can also take on multiple people at once with ease, having once beaten 19 people in the ring, all of whom he has inflicted extensive injuries, and even when distracted, Urashima instantly took down three sumo wrestlers simultaneously with little effort.

Being of samurai descent, along with his national athlete status, Urashima is of high social status within Wano, and is wealthy. He could order around and kill lower-class citizens without legal repercussion, simply of his standing.

Weapons
Urashima carries two katanas on his left hip, but it is unknown if he is skilled at using them.

Wano Country Arc
At Okobore Town in the Kuri region, Urashima tried courting Kiku to become his wife. She brushed him off and told him to place an order or leave, but Urashima simply continued bragging about his status. The situation was interrupted when Tsuru arrived with Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, and the ill Tama. He decided to leave due to having an uneasy feeling towards Zoro. Urashima told Kiku about an upcoming tournament at Bakura Town that day before leaving for Bakura, and he ate some rice from a bowl at a restaurant with the Gifter Mouseman, who was sitting at the same table with him. He told Mouseman about his desire to marry Kiku, and the pirate stated that he could do whatever he wanted to make her his wife since resorting to anything less would set up a shameful example for the athlete before the masses, which pleased Urashima. The sumo tournament then started, and Urashima was dominating when Kiku arrived along with Luffy and Zoro. Thinking Kiku had come to watch him, Urashima had his men bring her to him, and silenced the citizens who jeered at Kiku's low status, telling them that their very lives are his to take or tolerate. However, Kiku was disgusted by Urashima and cut off his topknot with her katana.
