Background / History

Kujaku is Vice Admiral Tsuru's granddaughter and initially serves aboard Tsuru's highly disciplined all-female Marine warship. Despite her mischievous manner, she sympathizes with Baby-5 after explaining that Baby-5 had been abandoned by her family and forced into assassin training. When Tsuru places Baby-5 under her care for a year, Kujaku becomes one of Baby-5's regular companions and guardians. 10

She acts as an early point of contact for Conrad, delivering his training-camp notice and eagerly anticipating the chance to test him in the assessments. Kujaku later participates in the Elite Intern Ship examination alongside Conrad and Drake. 18 22

During the voyage to the West Blue, she learns Geppo from Aokiji while retaining the Kami-e taught by Tsuru. Her role develops from personally controlling opponents to moving structures, directing marked objects, and coordinating wider battlefields. 26 31 67

Tsuru repeatedly warns Conrad that Kujaku's Whip-Whip Fruit is best suited to controlling battlefields from the rear and that she should not be left alone against stronger front-line opponents. Kujaku ultimately chooses to continue travelling with Conrad rather than return home, asserting her independence from her grandmother. 83

Appearance

Kujaku is a wheat-skinned young woman with golden-blonde hair and emerald-green eyes. She commonly wears strawberry-themed clothing and carries her Combat Whip, projecting a playful appearance that contrasts with her forceful combat style. 18 181 240

• Her blonde hair was once habitually tangled beneath her cap; Tsuru regularly combed it for her. 10 25
• She later begins grooming her own smooth, flowing hair, treating it as proof that she has grown up. 83
• Her usual accessories include a seagull cap, a Den Den Mushi watch, and strawberry-themed outfits. 18 83
• She disguised herself in white powder, vivid blush, twin pigtails, and an aristocratic hoop skirt during the Sabaody amusement-park operation. 62

Personality

Kujaku is mischievous, competitive, and openly enjoys provoking Conrad. She repeatedly frames their clashes as “training,” cracks her whip with a wicked grin, and expects others—especially Drake—to follow her orders. 10 18 23

Her teasing masks genuine empathy and protectiveness. She advocates for Baby-5, supervises her education and boundaries, worries when Conrad is left behind during the West Blue evacuation, and intervenes when Baccarat approaches Conrad too closely. 10 28 39 74

Kujaku is also increasingly direct about her feelings for Conrad. She proposes training him weekly, becomes distressed after learning of his engagement to Baby-5, and ultimately accepts his agreement to remain on his ship and train him without Haki resistance. 154

Abilities & Skills

Whip-Whip Fruit

Kujaku's Devil Fruit allows her whip to impose commands on people and objects she has marked or struck.

• Forced Drake's Allosaurus form to attack Conrad during the ice-peak examination. 24
• Compelled groups of Marines to pursue targets or stand at attention. 24 39
• Shifted a massive Opera House wall across the ground. 31
• Manipulated a Ferris wheel, its gondolas, and previously marked amusement-park attractions in combat. 64 67
• Developed her markings to activate and direct the aerial fortress's equipment remotely. 267

Rokushiki

Kujaku specializes in evasive movement.

• Kami-e — Learned from Tsuru; makes her body light and flexible enough to evade attacks with the flow of air. 26
• Geppo — Chosen as her second Six Powers technique during Aokiji's training voyage. 26
• Uses Kami-e and her agility to maneuver around the Ferris wheel while fighting Dellinger. 64

Battlefield Command

Kujaku's greatest strength is controlling terrain, allies, prisoners, and machinery rather than dueling superior opponents head-on.

• Commands Golden Lion and Enel as power sources sustaining the aerial fortress. 240
• Directs fortress turrets in rhythm with her Combat Whip during the defense against the Five Elders' beast. 267
• Tsuru considers rear-line battlefield control her proper role and cautions against leaving her isolated on the front lines. 83

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Combat Whip — Her primary weapon and the focus of her Devil Fruit commands. 23 31
• Den Den Mushi watch — Receives Marine notices and communications. 18
• Strawberry folding wallet — A wallet that has eaten the Bag-Bag Fruit; its openings lead to separate dimensional spaces. Kujaku uses it to pull Eustass Kid out during the Buster Call retreat. 249

Relationships

• Tsuru — Grandmother and guardian. Tsuru raised Kujaku aboard her warship, groomed her hair, taught her Kami-e, and remained concerned about her safety and independence. 10 26 83
• Conrad — Close companion and eventual romantic interest. Kujaku supports him financially, competes with him, protects him from unwanted advances, and seeks to train him every week. 26 74 154
• Baby-5 — Best friend and fellow member of Conrad's group. Kujaku initially helps care for her under Tsuru's supervision; Baby-5 later mediates between Kujaku and Conrad. 10 154
• Drake — Early subordinate and later ally. Kujaku can compel him through her Whip-Whip Fruit, though they also operate together in Marine missions. 10 24 62
• Gion — Fellow Marine with whom Kujaku shares camaraderie during the Heavenly Tribute operation. 168
• Aokiji — Senior Marine whom Kujaku knew from childhood and addresses as “Uncle Kuzan”; he taught her Geppo during the West Blue voyage. 26 27
