Head of Petrification Kingdom

The Head of the Petrification Kingdom, or simply the Head (頭 (とう) 首 (しゅ) , Tōshu), was the ruler of the Petrification Kingdom of the "Treasure Island" tribe and father of Soyuz.

Appearance

As noted by Ginro, he looks nearly the same as his son Soyuz, but with the key difference being that he had hair on his head and a beard and had no scars.^[1]

History

Past

Not much is known of him, though he was said to have been a kind ruler. He married at some point, having a son.

At one point, he told Kirisame of the usage of the Medusa.

Sometime later, Ibara managed to steal the Medusa and use it to petrify him. Whether this came from a personal vendetta or simply to take control of the island is unknown, the act was witnessed by an infant Soyuz. Despite Ibara's attempts to kill the child, Soyuz was safely sent away to the mainland of Japan. With the Head petrified, Ibara took command of the island. ^[2]

Treasure Island Arc

The Head's true state is discovered by Ginro.^[1]

He is smashed by Ibara, but gets somehow restored by Yuzuriha on Soyuz’s behalf, thus exposing Ibara's crime to everyone.^[3]^[4]

New America City Arc

Because he cannot be revived, Soyuz apologized to his father while the Petrification Kingdom welcome Soyuz after learning his heritage. Now that Ibara was gone, Soyuz succeeded his father and decided to revive the remaining statues on the island.^[5]
