Taizou

Summary

Taizou was a resident of the Land of Ancestors and a close friend of Ashura Ootsutsuki. As a child, he sported short, spiky black hair featuring a brown patch above his forehead and black eyes. His attire consisted of a grey apron-like cloak tied over his stomach with a white sash, worn over a plain khaki shirt, paired with simple pants and brown sandals. In adulthood, his appearance evolved to include a light-grey cloak fastened at the stomach, a dark-grey apron secured around his waist with a brown belt, light-grey pants, grey sandals, and white bandages wrapped around his wrists and ankles. During his travels with Ashura, he donned a straw hat, a white cape that covered his head, a scarf, and a grey sash tied around his torso. Taizou was a carefree man who displayed significant initiative. His love for his mother was profound, leading him to involve his best friend in a crime without Ashura's knowledge to heal her, a decision he later regretted. He remained fiercely loyal to Ashura, accompanying him through long periods and numerous hardships, even when Ashura initially resisted his company. Although initially offended by the villagers' hostility, he quickly set aside his anger to focus on assisting Ashura. Taizou openly admitted he was not a deep thinker, yet he compensated for this by remaining consistently supportive and giving his all regardless of the circumstances. Although he originally avoided learning the art because his mother opposed it, Taizou eventually chose to study Ninshuu under Ashura. After months of training with his friend, he mastered the ability to summon chakra to aid him in his struggles.
