Amatsuki Family

The Amatsuki Family was a renowned and formerly powerful family from Wano Country.^[2]

Crest[]

A potential Amatsuki Family crest is depicted on Toki's original kimono 30 years ago upon her arrival from the past. It consists of a crescent right-facing moon with a bird flying inside of it.^[3]

Members[]

The only known member was Kouzuki Toki, who went by Amatsuki Toki until she married Kouzuki Oden over 28 years ago. By marriage, Oden might have been considered part of the family, and similarly by lineage, their children Kouzuki Momonosuke and Hiyori may also be considered members.

History[]

Past[]

At least around 800 years ago, a faction of the Amatsuki Family lived outside of Wano Country. Around 800 years ago, a young woman named Amatsuki Toki tried to reach Wano Country and used her ability to move forward in time.^[4]

In Wano, the Amatsuki Family were powerful supporters of the ruling family, the Kouzuki Family, earning the family heads to be honored with the title of daimyo of a yet unconfirmed region of the country. But at a certain point, the daimyo of the Kurozumi Family tried to seize the shogunate and assassinated the leader of the Amatsuki Family as part of his scheme.^[2]

30 years ago, Toki was chased by the Takotopus Pirates, but was saved by Kouzuki Oden.^[3] She then followed him to Whitebeard's ship, becoming a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.^[5] Over the course of two years, Toki fell for Oden, and the two became a loving couple. 28 years ago, Toki gave birth to their son, Kouzuki Momonosuke,^[6] and two years after that, their daughter Kouzuki Hiyori was born.^[7] The family stayed with Oden when he joined the Roger Pirates.^[8] One day, Toki became too ill to continue their journey and had to stay in Wano with their children, forcing Oden to finish his quest alone.^[9]

25 years ago, when Oden returned, he was rejoiced to be reunited with his family and learned that Toki worked tirelessly to not make the citizens of Kuri resent Oden for his absence. He was also informed about Orochi's actions, and in a fit of rage for attacking his family, Oden headed toward the Flower Capital to retaliate.^[10] For the next five years, Toki stayed by Oden's side when the latter humiliated himself on a weekly basis as part of an undisclosed agreement with Orochi.^[11]

20 Years ago, when Oden was killed, the Beasts Pirates attacked Oden Castle, with Toki and their children still inside. Toki used her time abilities one more time to send her son and several of their retainers to the future^[12] while Kawamatsu escaped with her daughter.^[13] Toki stayed behind to send a message to their allies about the time when the Kouzuki heir would return.^[14] At the same time, Orochi offered the daimyos to follow him, but they refused and rebelled only to be defeated by Kaidou. It is unknown whether anyone from the Amatsuki Family is still alive currently.^[15]
