Sōzu

is a gambler from Tanzaku Quarters in the Land of Fire.

Background
His den is one of the many visited by Tsunade off of whom he made a fortune. He normally proceeds to spend it all around Tanzaku Quarters. On another of her visits he and his cohorts could barely contain themselves and were very grateful for the money that Tsuande had lost to them.

Personality
It would appear that Sōzu likes gambling greatly and even more so when he wins. He was overjoyed that the Legendary Sucker had entered his gambling den that he and his cohorts could barely contain themselves.

Appearance
Sōzu has trimmed black hair, a goatee, dark eyes and wears a simple, loose-fitting kimono with white trimmings.

Search for Tsunade Arc
During Jiraiya's search for Tsunade, he overheard him asking her whereabouts and told him after the Sannin had bought him a round of drinks.
