Kozuki Toki

Kozuki Toki, née Amatsuki, is a female character in the anime and manga series One Piece. She was born 830 years before the present storyline, during the time when Wano was just being isolated from the rest of the world. She used her newly aquired Devil Fruit power, the Toki Toki no Mi, or the Time Time Fruit, to travel 800 years into the future. She arrives only a few years before Kurozumi Orochi and Kaido are about to take over Wano for themselves, and during this time she meets Kozuki Oden who saves her from slave traders, falls in love with him, and marries him. A day later she meets the Whitebeard Pirates, and Whitebeard allows them to join the crew, although it's unknown if Toki took parts in any actual acts of piracy during this time, due to Whitebeard's well known rule about not letting female members of the crew fight. This makes her one of 5 citizens of Wano to be members of the Whitebeard Crew, along with her husband, Oden (the commander of the second division), Nekomamushi, Inuarashi, and Izo (who eventually became the commander of the sixteenth division for a long time).
During their time on the crew, she gives birth to Momonosuke and Hiyori. When Oden joins up with the Roger Pirates briefly due to Gol D. Roger needing Oden's ability to read the Poneglyphs to find the last island, Toki naturally followed him. Sometime after the Roger Pirates' visit to Fish-Man Island, Toki became ill. When the crew reached Wano Country, Oden wanted to stop the journey to Laugh Tale and instead stay with his wife and children in Wano, however, Toki forced Oden to continue his journey until the end, saying that she would divorce him if he stopped now. Toki then stayed in Wano with her children.
During her time in Wano, she became a beloved figure in the Kuri region, as the wife of the Lord. It wasn't long, however, before Orochi and the Beast Pirates attacked Wano. During their final assault, Toki sent three of the Nine Red Scabbards, Kin'emon, Raizo, and Kanjuro, 20 years in the future. Before her death, she spoke a prophecy to the citizens of Wano, that nine shadows would one day rise to take back Wano, and open up its boarders. Toki's prophecy to Wano Country inspired strong hope in the followers and retainers of the Kozuki Family and an intense fear in Kurozumi Orochi, which they interpreted that in twenty years, nine samurai would exact vengeance on Orochi in Oden's name and open the borders of Wano Country.
Ironically, Orochi would be the one to take Toki's prophecy the most seriously, fearing the day when the followers of the Kozuki Family will rise up to take his life. He would spend the next twenty years doing everything in his power to prevent any chance of this happening. Toki's prophecy would fufilled when six of the Nine Red Scabbards beheaded Orochi after the latter lost Kaidou's protection and support, with ]Denjiro beheading Orochi for the last time, ending the life of the tyrannical shogun.
She is voiced by in Japanese and Scarlett McAlister in English.
==Appearance==
Toki was a tall woman with long dark (light green in the anime) hair that was kept back with the exception of two strands in front resembling of her daughter, Kozuki Hiyori. She wore a flower ornament with a chain of pearls on the right side of her hair. She also wore a short pink kimono with crescent moons resembling the Kozuki Family's symbol on the bottom. She held a strong resemblance to her daughter. A few years later, she received a scar on her left thigh from an arrow shot defending her children.
==Personality==
Toki was a friendly and caring woman, as she took care of Oden when he washed ashore on the island she was on to repay him for scaring away human traffickers. Her friendliness could make her somewhat naive, as she went with some human traffickers under the impression that they would take her to Wano, although she did manage to quickly expose their ruse. When she came to 30 years before the present, she showed an excited attitude at going to Wano. After she married Oden, Oden's retainers came to possess tremendous respect for her. She was also humble as she worked with the citizens of Kuri and never boasted about being the wife of a daimyo.
==Trivia==
*"Toki" is another name for the Japanese crested ibis, which follows Oda's tradition of naming female characters after birds, as well as the Japanese word for "time", matching the name and ability of her Devil Fruit.  
*Before marrying Kozuki Oden, she was a member of the Amatsuki family, a formally influential and powerful family within Wano.
