Hyogoro

Hyogoro of the Flower, currently better known as Grandpa Hyo (ヒョウじい), is a prisoner in the Udon region of Wano Country. Twenty years ago, he was the most famous yakuza boss in Wano.

Appearance


Hyogoro is a small, elderly man with a small tuft of light hair and a minuscule beard. On both of his shoulders he has large tattoos with flower patterns. He wears striped pants and a light-colored vest. He also wears glasses over his eyes.

Twenty years ago, he was a heavyset man with long hair and beard resembling flames.

Personality
Hyogoro is an honorable man who views the attitudes and actions of the Beasts Pirates with great disdain, yearning for the old days when honorable people were still alive. After spending a long time in the prison, he became somewhat timid, although still voiced his disappointment with his lack of food despite such an attitude being punishable. However, when Luffy gave him more food, Hyogoro took the pirate's honor very seriously and made no secret of his new fortune, being willing to accept death for it because of how it fulfilled his memories of the past.

Abilities and Powers
In the past, Hyogoro was once Wano's most famous yakuza boss, which likely gave him a significant amount of power and influence. In fact, his popularity among the Wano population was so massive that Shinobu was certain that, even after two decades, Hyogoro alone would be able to recruit the necessary amount of Samurai to stand a chance in the revolution against Orochi.

As an elderly man, however, he is very weak and frail, being only able to move five big rock blocks. He was also hurt heavily when attacked by the prison guards.

Past
Twenty years ago, Hyogoro was the most famous yakuza boss in Wano Country. He was allied with the Kozuki Family, whose patriarch, Kozuki Oden, was a fan of his since childhood. However, he lost his position, which was eventually occupied by Kyoshiro, and he was later imprisoned by the Beasts Pirates.

Wano Country Arc
After moving five big block rocks in the Prisoner Mines, Hyogoro went to collect his food allotment and was disheartened to see that he only received one piece of kibi dango for his work. The guard punched Hyogoro for talking back, leaving him lying on the ground. The deputy warden Dobon then arrived and stepped on Hyogoro, but was then defeated by the prisoners Monkey D. Luffy and Eustass Kid, and Luffy picked up Hyogoro and carried him on his shoulder.

On the next day, Hyogoro thanked Luffy for saving him. Luffy then gave Hyogoro some of his meal tickets in an act of kindness.

The next day, Hyogoro was attacked by the guards, who were suspicious about him having so many meal tickets. However, he refused to give up his food, as Luffy's actions reminded him of Wano's past and he was willing to die now that this had fulfilled him. Before Daifugo could kill Hyogoro, though, Luffy came in and attacked the guard.
