So, finally, Kanjuro was revealed to be the traitor. Not only that, he is also a Kurozumi. And now that he has become one of the enemies, it’s quite possible that someone will have to fight him in the future. And these are the roots for this theory.
At first, not much is revealed about Kanjuro. In chapter 962 we’re told that he was a weirdo that used to steal hair, both from the alive and the dead, in order to make brushes. Now, that’s a weird habit to say the least.
Now, here comes an interesting detail. After Lord Yasuie’s tragic death (may him rest in peace), in chapter 951, Kanjuro is chosen as the one responsible for taking care of his corpse.
One interesting thing about Yasuie was his epiphet “Yasu the Hedgehog”. That was due to his very distinct spiky and blue hair (can’t think of any Sonic jokes, sorry).
Now, I think you can see where I’m going with this. Kanjuro’s favorite material for his brushes is human hair. And Yasue’s hair would make for a quite distinct brush. Maybe a brush capable of making quite phenomenal pieces of art as well. How cruel wouldn’t it be if the Scabbard fated to defeat this demon discovered that Shimotsuki Yasuie’s hair was being used as a weapon by a traitor. That not even in his death, he could rest in peace?
