History
Chuji traveled alongside Some from the Flower Capital to Onigashima, where she was to entertain the Wano administration and the Beasts Pirates during their Fire Festival. The two became separated for a time until Some located the rat among the crowd in the hall and summoned it back to her. Their reunion nearly turned deadly when the unseen Queen lunged for Some, but Sanji drove Queen's head into the floor and slipped Chuji safely inside his jacket. Once Queen had been kicked from the hall, Sanji drew the rat back out and returned it to Some.
From there Chuji stayed with Some and Sanji as they tried to flee the blaze spreading through the Skull Dome, escaping danger only when Raizo flooded the structure with water.
