—Kaburagi Juuzou to Alyosha Harchenko.
Kaburagi Juuzou is the founder of the Kaburagi-ryu Karate, and the 1st president. He taught Tachibana Sougo and Izumi Koushou. Juuzou has two sons, with one of them being the former second president of the Kaburagi-ryu Karate International Organization, Kaburagi Shigemi. It is initially thought Kaburagi Juuzou has died years prior to the manga's story, due to how most characters believed he died and the portrait from the Second Karate Club makes it look he passed away but in Chapter 306, it was revealed Juuzou was actually in the Philippines for 10 years before the start of the manga.
