## One Piece Chapter 953, pages 6-7: A Fox of a Single Disguise - Chapter: 953 - Pages: 6-7 - Characters: Kawamatsu, Kozuki Hiyori, Onimaru, Shimotsuki Ushimaru ### Summary Page 6: Kawamatsu asks whether Hiyori knows Ringo's custom, the Eternal Burial. Hiyori has heard that because it is so cold, bodies left out in coffins stay preserved for hundreds of years. Kawamatsu explains that the markers used for these eternal graves are swords, katanas, and that some of the blades were famed meito. Such was Ringo, the land upon which they now stand. But after the fall, the graves were constantly looted, and a fox barked from the snow as robbers prepared to raid them again. Page 7: The fox's name was Onimaru, the beloved companion of the late daimyo of Ringo, Ushimaru Shimotsuki. When grave robbers approached, Onimaru leapt out barking, and Kawamatsu recognized him: "Onimaru?!" The fox snarled, but Kawamatsu said, "I... I have met you once before." The meeting brought together the ruined land's last loyal guardian and the retainer who had lost Hiyori.
