Amatsuki Toki is a woman who possesses the ability to travel through time and who becomes the wife of Kozuki Oden. She arrives in the present timeline after leaping forward from earlier eras and plays a central role in preserving the Kozuki family line through a prophecy that the family would rise again in twenty years. Toki is known for her time-related power that sends people only into the future, her assistance to villagers upon reaching Wano, and her final actions during the assault on the castle that allow Momonosuke and Hiyori to survive into the future.

Appearance

Amatsuki Toki has long dark hair and wears a checkered outfit along with a flower accessory. She is shown gripping a large curved scythe-like weapon during confrontations and maintains a determined stance while facing opponents on the dock.1

Personality

Amatsuki Toki displays a resolute and defiant nature when facing threats, refusing to yield and internally resolving to leap into the future rather than submit. She accuses the Whitebeard Pirates of being human traffickers and expresses regret over her initial naivety in an angry tone.4

Toki shows deep affection toward Kozuki Oden and insists he fulfill his promise to complete the voyage even when ill, prioritizing his feelings over her own condition. She works daily to assist villagers and shares stories of Oden's adventures without leveraging her status as his wife.52

She later reunites with Oden and the children on shore where the people of Kuri welcome the family warmly thanks to her daily assistance to the villagers.1415

She sustains a permanent leg scar from shielding a child during an initial arrow attack and later observes events from a high vantage point near the castle.16
