Allies/ Friends
Mako

Mr. Sukimoji is very fond of Mako, offering to train him until he was a worthy swordsman. As Mako grew as a person and as a swordsman, Mr. Sukimoji grew to like him. Initially, however, he found Mako to be very irritating, constantly demanding the Taiyotsuki No Ken and challenging the old man to battles. By the end of their training, they had gained a mutual respect for one another.

History
About 50 years ago, Mr. Sukimoji left his homeland in order to better protect the Taiyotsuki No Ken. He sailed to the little-known Crescent Island and set up a sword shop, believing that if people were looking for the

legendary swords, they wouldn't go into such a run-down, dilapidated place. 12 years ago, Mako was snooping around in Mr. Sukimoji's shop when he found a creaky floorboard that moved a bit. He took it out to find a box wrapped in linen with a sun and a moon on it just as Sukimoji was coming in. He tried to hide it but, due to Mako's persistence and constant pecking, he showed Mako the swords. Mako immediately demanded them, but Sukimoji refused,  saying that Mako could never be a good enough swordsman to handle these blades, especially not being able to handle a simple katana. Mako, frustrated by this statement, challenges Mr. Sukimoji to a battle, which Sukimoji ends abruptly after knocking Mako to the ground with the pommel of his sword.

After Mako had trained at the Yuyan Dojo for ten years, he came back to the shop with the intent of challenging Sukimoji again for the swords. Although the battle lasted a little longer, with Mako almost getting a few hits on him, Mr. Sukimoji again ends up the victor, stating that although he improved, Mako was still not worthy of such powerful swords. Seeing Mako very distraught after losing,Mr. Sukimoji offered to train him personally. Mako was skeptical at first, but decides to take him up on his offer.

After two years of training, Mr Sukimoji saw Mako's great improvement and decided he was ready to handle the Taiyotsuki No Ken, giving Mako a warning about the swords power before presenting him with the case. Mr Sukimoji told him he will one day be the world's greatest swordsman, and smiled. As Mako was admiring the swords, Mr Sukimoji vanished, leaving Mako alone behind his shop. It is unknown where Mr. Sukimoji is at the current time.
