Yoshihira (義平, Yoshihira), currently known as Rikuō Akikage (秋影陸王, Akikage Rikuō) by a rather limited number of the populace, is a travelling merchant and Blacksmith specializing in the trading of weapon-based goods, from simple tools such as Kunai to highly complex and specialized Swords of his own creation. Due to the relatively minor scale that his wares are selling at, Yoshihira has temporarily allied himself with Měiyì and her large-scale criminal organization as both a mercenary and merchant on two different fronts, giving him a vast quantity of revenue and information to further his goals. As a mercenary, Yoshihira operates with the alias of Kumawaka (熊若, Kumawaka).
