==Biography==
Mutsu is the daughter of the president of a Space Pirate group specializing in human trafficking called 'Chidori'. She was forced to become the vice-president of Chidori against her will. The Chidori picked up Sakamoto when he was drifting down the sea on a haystack. Sakamoto was made a slave and put in jail, where he did his 'business' with the other slaves. It was at this time that Mutsu also learned 'business' from him.

Even if I wanted to pay back a debt or atone for a sin, those things aren't around. Because those screwy merchants tore out any debts to pay back or any sins to atone a long time ago.

Mutsu
Qotd


Mutsu (陸奥 Mutsu) is 2nd-in-Command of the merchant fleet Kaientai. In fact, she is the one running the company, instead of the usually-disappearing leader Sakamoto Tatsuma. Before then, she was the Vice Commander of the 2th Division of the Chidori, a group of space pirates that made money by selling slaves. However, after learning of their plan to kill her after her father's death, Mutsu ended up being a member of the Kaientai as soon as the pirates' ships were taken over by Sakamoto.

Biography

Mutsu was the daughter of the President of the Chidori. As a result, she was raised as a pirate and, at the age of 14, she became the Vice Commander of the group's 2nd Division, which was completely against her will. At some point, the Chidori picked up Sakamoto Tatsuma when he was floating the sea on a haystack. Sakamoto was made a slave and put in jail, where he did his 'business' with the other slaves. It was at this time that Mutsu learnt about "business" from him.

Some time after Sakamoto was picked up, Mutsu's father died. The Chidori planned to kill Mutsu and the slaves to make the supervisor of Chidori their new President. Hearing this, Mutsu decided to use herself as a bait and let the slaves, including Sakamoto, escape. But in the end, she was saved by them, as they took over the whole ships from the pirates and threw them to the sea.

At one point in the present, when a spaceship crashed into a desert-like planet, and the passengers, including the Yorozuya and Sakamoto, were stuck there, Mutsu came to help them with the Kaientai fleet. Nevertheless, their landing on the planet woke a Sand Bug up and trigger it to attack them. As soon as everyone had been saved by Sakamoto, Mutsu decided to shoot the bug under his order, despite knowing that Sakamoto was still caught by the bug and he would die if she did so. Though, Gintoki intervened the shooting and jumped down to save his friend, leaving Mutsu wondering on what he was thinking then.
