Identity: Princess of Wano, the courtesan Komurasaki, the daughter of the daimyo of Kuri.

In the enchanted world of "One Piece," Kozuki Hiyori establishes herself as a captivating figure of elegance and intrigue. Crowned by Eiichiro Oda, the creator himself, as one of the three unparalleled beauties of this universe, she finds herself in a prestigious company of Princess Shirahoshi of Ryugu Kingdom and Boa Hancock, the sovereign of Amazon Lily.

Hiyori, under the moniker of Komurasaki in the original Japanese script, is addressed as "the leading courtesan," a term indicating a prostitute, by the denizens of Wano. Given the challenging complexities of her character, the masterful depiction of "Hiyori One Piece" remains one of Oda's most notable artistic feats.

Throughout the Wano arc, Hiyori is seen adopting the guise of Komurasaki during the beginning and conclusion of the first act, bedecked in a care mask and strumming the strings of a shamisen. Upon revealing her authentic self, Hiyori becomes the mainstay of the performance sequence in the latter part of the second act and the third.

This enigmatic character of Hiyori channels the lore of Susanoo-no-Mikoto and Kushi-inada-hime from Japanese mythology. Kushi-inada-hime, a famed beauty, was set to be sacrificed to the formidable Yamata no Orochi, but was spared when Susanoo-no-Mikoto transformed her into a comb, defeated the Orochi, and subsequently wed her.

Hiyori, with her striking emerald-green hair styled in a unique manner representative of the Edo-period nobility, exudes a distinguished grace. Although she demonstrates a tender spirit, Hiyori stands fearless and bold when the situation demands. This bravery surfaces during the combat against Kamazo as Hiyori tends to a wounded and unconscious Roronoa Zoro, holding him safely in her embrace.

As the enchantress Komurasaki, Hiyori entranced the affluent, bleeding them dry of their wealth, leaving them destitute. Her allure and charm earned her an incessant presence at Orochi's banquets, winning his favor. She also showcased her musical talent as a gifted shamisen performer, with "Tsuki Hime" remaining her preferred song.

Whilst representing Komurasaki, Hiyori entertained high-ranking officials and wealthy merchants. She drained the ill-gotten wealth from these men, all while being clandestinely safeguarded from any backlash by the stern guard Kyoshiro. Indeed, Hiyori “One Piece” makes for a mesmerizing character fraught with complexity and grace.
