Mangetsu Kuzunoha is the Purple Covenant holder and a member of the Kuzunoha clan. He's told to have played a part in protecting the people from supernatural disasters, and even among the Kuzunohas he's told to be the best of the best.
Mangestu Kuzunoha was involved in researching the Covenants for Yatagarasu with an assistant who also held one of the Covenants. During a raid on Mangetsu's lab by the Phantom Society a year prior, the assistant was killed by Iron Mask and his covenant was taken. Mangetsu was believed to have died in the raid and his Covenant was believed to be lost. Mangetsu has gone into hiding since these events. He would at first take shelter in the Central Line, an abandoned public transport facility taken up by homeless people. He would only be known to them as "Doc," but the people have been grateful to his support as a medic. Mangetsu would take up a room within the Central Line that he'd use as his own lab.
Mangetsu would find strong interest in Arrow due to his role in the incident, as he deduced that he would be a trump card to Iron Mask's plans as he would "not account for him." Because of this, Mangetsu would actively track Arrow's actions over time, but he'd go beyond professional monitoring to what is described to be an "obsession."
After the Phantom Society's raid on the Central Line, he moved to Subway Line 14, but he would be caught in pursuit by the Iron Mask and Zenon directly. He would leave a final warning message to Arrow informing him of his key role in the mission, before getting killed by Zenon and having his Covenant stolen. To ensure he cannot be revived via Soul Hack, Iron Mask had Zenon devour his body. Iron Mask would also break his phone, but Figue would extract the relevant data and the related video, the existence of which was unbeknownst to the Iron Mask. Not getting much information from the video, they enter Arrow's Soul Matrix to unlock his hidden memories which causes them to learn that Mangetsu had sealed the real Purple Covenant within Arrow. Mangetsu had tricked his body into thinking he was dead by chopping off his arm, which allowed him to transfer the Covenant to Arrow. He then erased this fact from Arrow's mind - as well as Arrows memories of Mangetsu himself - which allowed the Covenant to stay hidden. Mangestu then put a fake Covenant in himself, which Zenon had absorbed causing him to not actually have all five like he thought he had. Flamma manages to analyze his research, which allows Figue to edit Covenants as well which she uses to put a virus inside Zenon after he absorbs hers.
