Hideyoshi Yasumaro (安万侶 秀良; Yasumaro Hideyoshi) was a Shinto apprentice from Nagoya, Japan who practiced Shrine Shinto (神社神道; jinja-shintō). Hideyoshi lived and worshiped at the prestigious Atsuta Shrine.
Powers and abilities[]
Though an apprentice, Hideyoshi is an accomplished archer, capable of hitting his target with remarkable precision. His time with a Buddhist monk influenced his fighting technique to include staff fighting. In order to lighten his load, Hideyoshi developed and trained himself in the use of the bow-staff. With the bow-staff, Hideyoshi can knock back his opponents with the "staff," then agilely leap back to fire a stream of arrows. He often combines his techniques with the bow-staff with his connections to the Shinto spirits, further amplifying his power.
