One Piece: Confirmed Deaths in Wano Country Arc
One Piece: Confirmed Deaths in Wano Country Arc
Wano Country Arc is undoubtedly one of, if not the best, arcs in One Piece to date. The Arc and its crew joined forces with the Samurai, , and later, the To Take Down and Orochi. Later joined Kaido in defeating the three captains of the Worst Generation.
This arc also featured a large number of them, which is quite unusual in One Piece. But that only shows how serious things become as the story progresses toward its ending. Some of the deaths that occur in the Wanoland Arc are confirmed and shown on screen while others are only implied and left to our imagination.
Now that the anime is at the end of the arc, we have decided to list the confirmed deaths in the Wano Country Arc. We also have a special mention that deserves to be mentioned regarding its impact. Now let's see which characters are confirmed dead in One Piece:

Confirmed Deaths in Wanoland Arc
1) Kurozumi Orochi
One Piece has many characters and antagonists whose villainy is enough to make our blood boil. But Kurozumi Orochi was on a whole different level. Orochi was a man filled with so much hatred and bitterness that he no longer had any conscience. He, with the help of his living comrades, invited Kaido and tricked Kozuki Oden, ultimately killing him.
Thanks to his Hebi Hebi no Mi, Model: Yamata no Orochi, he was not easy to kill. His mythical devil fruit Zoan gave him the ability to survive decapitation eight times. After several attempts by Kaido and the Akazaya Nine, he was finally killed by Denjiro.
2) Kurozumi Kanjurō
The biggest twist of the Wano Country Arc is Kanjuro's betrayal. No one expected that Oden's loyal servant for whom he sacrificed his life would be the traitor. He actually belonged to the Kurozumi clan which was the enemy of the Kozuki clan. Kanjuro claimed to be a loyal subject of Oden and became one of the Akazaya Nine.
As the rebel forces joined together to launch a raid on Onigashima, Kanjuro revealed himself to be the traitor. He was then fatally struck by Kinemon, but even then he continued to live. Before he died, he painted his final attack, Kazenbo, which set everything it touched on fire.
3) Ashura Doji
One of the major deaths confirmed in the Wano Country Arc is that of Ashura Doji. He was part of the Akazaya Nine but unlike some of his comrades, he did not go to the future with Momonosuke. After Kaido died and Orochi took control of Wano, he became a bandit and took the name Shutenmaru.
During the raid on Onigashima, when Kanjuro created a fake Oden to fool the Akazaya Nine, Ashura Doji did not believe it, even though Kinemon did. He passed through the fake Oden's body to prove it and died protecting Kin'emon.
4) This
Viewers first saw Izo in the Marineford Arc as the commander of the 16th division of the Whitebeard Pirates. In the Wano Country Arc, he made another appearance and was revealed to be one of Oden's servants who left after their journey with the pirate crew.
It was also revealed that Izo was the older brother of Kikunojo, another servant of Oden. Although he left Wano and his friends behind to join the Whitebeard Pirates, Izo returned to avenge his late lord. He died fighting Maha, but not before shooting the CP0 agent.
5) Shimotsuki Yasuie
Wano Country Arc has a lot of great and memorable characters, but Yasuie remains in our minds as one of the best characters not only in this arc but also in the entire series. He first appeared in the story as a strange man who always laughs. It was later revealed what a great man he was, pretending to have eaten a SMILE fruit to express his solidarity with the unfortunate citizens of Ebisu Town.
Yasuie also adopted little Toko and loved her like a real girl. In the past, when Kozuki Sukiyaki was the shogun of Wano, Yasuie was the daimyo of Hakumai. After refusing to bow to Orochi, he lived in hiding for years before sacrificing himself to deceive Orochi's forces and allow the Akazaya Nine's revolution to continue.
6) A lot
Although not a major character, Maha is still one of the confirmed deaths from the Wano Country Arc. He was a CP0 agent who came to Wano with a few other agents including .
Maha fought against many powerful opponents in Onigashima, including the warriors Mink, X Drake, Apoo, Inbi, and Zanki. He eventually fought Izou and both died fighting each other.
Special mention
Monkey D. Luffy
The most significant case of confirmed deaths in the Wano Country saga is also the most special and unique. During his fight against Kaido on Onigashima, Luffy repeatedly suffered crushing defeats. However, when Luffy looked ready to attack Kaido head-on with his Over Kong Gun, CP0 Agent Guernica intervened and pinned his arms back to prevent him from using the attack.
This caused Kaido to launch a deadly attack that left Luffy unconscious on the ground. Although it was not explicitly stated that he was dead, Luffy's heart stopped at that moment. This was before Luffy's Devil Fruit awakened and began its transformation into .
Conclusion
This ends the list of confirmed deaths in the Wano Country Arc. There's a big possibility that some of the unconfirmed deaths in the arc will turn out to be dead characters after all. However, given One Piece's history, the unconfirmed deaths might not be deaths at all.
Important characters like Kaido and Big Mom, despite their crushing defeats, could turn out to be alive. But in the meantime, these are the confirmed deaths in the Wano Country Arc.
