Denkibou

Denkibou is one of the antagonists that appears in Evanescent Encounter (Part 1) and Evanescent Encounter (Part 2) in the anime series Samurai Champloo. He is voiced by Keiichi Nanba in the Japanese Dub and Derek Stephen Prince in the English Dub.

History
Denkibou does not physically appear in Misguided Miscreants (Part 1), but he and his brothers Umanosuke and Toube were government officials who were on a boat guarding supplies. However, they were attacked by Mukuro and his henchmen, including Mugen. Mukuro exploded the ship to get rid of Mugen, but as a result the explosion severely deformed Denkibou and his brothers. Vowing revenge, the trio have been tracking Mugen and his friends.

While tracking down Mugen, they come across a traveler, in which Umanosuke killed him. Denkibou and his brothers stop by the restaurant and inquire about our heroes’ whereabouts, however when the owner tries to snitch on the brothers, Denkibou mercilessly kills him. The three brothers managed to find Fuu when she reaches Seizo Kasumi's island.

Umanosuke and Toube manage to hold Fuu, while Denkibou goes back to the island where Mugen & Jin are fighting against Kariya Kagetoki. Denkibou tells our heroes to go to a church on the other island, or else bad things will happen to Fuu. Back out on the boat, Mugen is surprised by Denkibou’s presence, and despite being told to do nothing until they get to the island, he attacks Mugen. The two fight, maneuvering as best they can in the boat’s enclosed spaces, until the fight ends up underwater. Denkibou stabs Mugen through the hand, and Mugen stabs Denkibou directly through the chest.

Appearance
Denkibou is a deformed human who has gray skin. He was yellow hair, a red shirt and fanatical eyes. One of his eyes is larger than the other, and its implied he had his deformed skin due to the explosion caused by Mukuro.
