Kojuro

Kojuro is a samurai who allied with the Kozuki Family. After waiting 20 years for the return of the Nine Red Scabbards, he affiliated with the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance to raid Onigashima.

Appearance
Kojuro is a man of medium height, but wide at the shoulders. He has a square face, black eyebrows and shoulder-length pink hair. Kojuro wears a purple kimono with dark blue piping and a light yellow cape with a pattern of light green spirals. He also has a reverse crescent moon tattoo on his ankle.

Personality
Kojuro is quite an emotional person. He is very happy to learn of the raid against Kaidou, stating that he will be there and that this is the spark that was expected in Wano. After Dotaku's words that they are not allowed to carry swords, Kojuro speaks in expression and rage that he is ready to fight with his bare hands and will not miss his chance. While imprisoned in Rasetsu, Kojuro cried upon receiving a message from Shimotsuki Yasuie about a new meeting place. There, he tried to trick the guards to release him and his comrades for the sake of the Fire Festival, but the attempt failed. During the raid on Onigashima, Kojuro wholeheartedly supported Kin'emon's words regarding their samurai honor. He showed tremendous willpower while battling the Ice Oni virus that hit him, but shortly before creating the antidote, he began to become discouraged, for which Dotaku had to mentally support him.

Abilities and Powers
Kojuro is a skilled samurai who fought the Beasts Pirates to protect himself. He also has a strong will, allowing him to resist Queen's virus for a long time.

Weapons
Kojuro wielded a katana.

Past
In the past, Kojuro was allied with the Kozuki Family. After hearing Kozuki Toki's prophesied the downfall of Kurozumi Orochi and the opening of Wano Country's borders, Kojuro and his allies waited for 20 years for the Nine Red Scabbards' return and got reverse crescent moon tattoos to identify themselves.

Wano Country Arc
Kojuro finds the message of the Onigashima raid along with Dotaku and another man. He states that he will participate in the event, to which Dotaku remarks that they have no weapons and have nowhere to hone their skills, since Orochi has closed all the dojo. Kojuro replies that he doesn't care and is ready to fight with his bare hands.

Later, due to the fact that he has a reverse crescent moon tattoo on his ankle, Kojuro was arrested and sent to the Rasetsu Town prison. There he is during the ostentatious execution of Shimotsuki Yasuie, and cries when he looks at the flyer sent by him with the new meeting place. Before the start of the Fire Festival, Kojuro scolds the guards, saying that such an event happens only once a year, and they are forced to spend a holiday in prison. The guards refuse, which upsets the prisoners.

On the day of the Fire Festival, Kojuro and the other rebels were freed from Rasetsu Town by Denjiro, adding 1,000 soldiers to the raid's forces. The group sailed to Tokage Port to retrieve the Scabbards and commence the raid.

Kojuro joined the resistance and traveled with the Kozuki Family's other allies to Onigashima, donning a disguise upon arrival.

Kojuro was later seen infected with the Ice Oni virus, which severely infected his body despite Marco's fire. He said that his strength was running out, and Dotaku asked him to hold out a little longer, citing Chopper as an example, who was also infected, but at the same time was preparing an antidote.
