'''{{nihongo|Kubaru|クバル}}''' was a member of [[Jagi]]'s gang who executed villagers that refused to pay tribute to his master (who at the time was posing as [[Kenshirō]]). Kubaru would bury certain villagers down to their head and then force other villagers to behead them with his saw. Those that did not comply, he killed with his sledgehammer. However, Kubaru met his comeuppance when the real Kenshirō arrived at his turf and saw his head in half. | '''{{nihongo|Kubaru|クバル}}''' was a member of [[Jagi]]'s gang who executed villagers that refused to pay tribute to his master (who at the time was posing as [[Kenshirō]]).
