"Dozing" Kyoushirou is a money changer in Wano Country's Flower Capital, working for the Kurozumi Family. It is later revealed that he is actually Denjiro, one of the Nine Red Scabbards. Due to his grief over Oden's execution 20 years ago, Denjiro altered his appearance and adopted the name Kyoushirou. As Kyoushirou, he became a yakuza boss, recruiting followers to form the Kyoushirou Family. He then started working for Shogun Kurozumi Orochi, Oden's usurper, as a money changer and bodyguard.
Denjiro is also known as the legendary thief Ushimitsu Kozo (The Witching-Hour Boy), who stole from wealthy families in the Flower Capital to support the people in the poorer Kuri region. He served as one of Kozuki Oden's retainers years ago. His late-night robberies are the reason he is often sleepy during the day, which led to his "Dozing Kyoushirou" epithet.
