Personality

Conscience plays little part in Bingo. Together with Bongo and Bungo he ran a three-man racket bleeding the people of Wano, his own angle being the sale of overpriced coffins to grieving families. Folly and unchecked appetite undid him. The mere chance of a future with the top-ranked courtesan Komurasaki drove him to liquidate everything, even stooping to sell off his own family, and his blind faith led him to hand over all his earnings without a single legal protection. When the swindle finally became clear, despair tipped into a murderous fixation; he set out to kill the woman who had bankrupted him and stopped caring whether he died doing it. Exile to impoverished Ebisu Town left him and his partners bitter, and even Tonoyasu's generous care did nothing to soften the trouble they caused.

History

Before his downfall Bingo had been rich and connected enough to reside in the Flower Capital. He carried a knife when he moved against Komurasaki but handled it poorly and was quickly put down by her guard. Thirteen years earlier he had robbed graves alongside Bongo and Bungo, and an attempt to plunder the tombs of Ringo was foiled by Kawamatsu and Onimaru. The trio also ran an arson scheme, torching homes so Bingo could gouge the survivors of the dead.

Komurasaki then courted him, promising she would buy her freedom and share her life with him if he covered her steep price. Stunned by the offer, Bingo sold off his warehouse, his belongings, even his family, and entrusted every coin to her. A stand-in took his final payment, and when he arrived to collect her, she revealed she had spent it all and never meant to leave. Cast out and mocked, Bingo joined Bongo and Bungo in an attempt to cut Komurasaki down on her way to Orochi's palace, but a guard felled them before they got close, and she dismissed all men as dogs who fed her money. Penniless, the three were banished from the Flower Capital and resettled in Ebisu Town, taking up temporary lodging there.
