Riki Nagakura (リキ長倉, Nagakura Riki), known otherwise as the Wolf (狼, Ōkami), is a Fōrun-juu thought to have lost his life during the Collapse. He survived due to the intervention of his eldest sibling, Shin Nagakura, thus quashing the rumours of the latter's survival, though Riki himself was left near-death, surviving only due to the simultaneous intervention of Anko Amatsuki, Ayumi and Kenji Hiroshi. He made his return just in-time to aid the Six Directions during the Second Battle of Nishiendo, arguably saving the life of his childhood friend Kentaro Hiroshi. He has since joined Kentaro in the struggle against the Gotei Remnant, Kikkashō and Imawashī. In the words of Kenji himself Riki "must do for Kentaro what Kusaka did for Kenji", thus solidifying his place as Kentaro's right-hand man
