Authority[]
Smiley is the current Fourth Division Captain of Tokyo Manji Gang. Prior to his allegiance to Mikey, he was the leader of the Twin Devils Gang with Angry.
Fighting Prowess[]
Smiley is recognized as one of Toman's most formidable fighters. During the battle between Toman and Tenjiku, Shion Madarame noted that Toman was easy to defeat due to the absence of the gang's strongest members, one of which was Smiley who was struck with a steel pipe and eventually hospitalized hours before the fight. Angry also continuously stated that Smiley would have beaten Ran and Rindo Haitani if only he was present and praised his brother for knowing what to do in his stead. Indeed, Smiley displays a skillful performance when fighting and always knows what to do when put in danger. He also has his limits when he fights but shows no mercy when he is challenged, as seen when he attacked and won against Kakucho, a Tenjiku Heavenly King, after Tenjiku's raid on the First Division.[2]
