== History ==
[[File:Chikusa Crying.PNG|thumb|200px|Chikusa as a child]]
He was born into the [[Estraneo Famiglia]] along with Ken and Mukuro and was one of the children who were experimented on when the Famiglia invented the Possession Bullet that soon was deemed forbidden and were as a result horribly persecuted by other Mafia Famiglias; however, this changed when Mukuro saved him and Ken by annihilating the entire Famiglia. After escaping from the laboratory, Ken and Chikusa swore their loyalty to Mukuro.

Before the start of Kokuyo Arc, Chikusa, Ken, Mukuro, and [[Lancia]] were arrested and imprisoned in high-security prison for the most dangerous Mafia criminals. On the eve of Mukuro's execution, they staged a jailbreak, resulting in the deaths of several wardens and prisoners. Soon afterwards, they went to Japan, attending Kokuyo Middle School as foreign transfer students, and within a week able to take over the whole school.{{-}}

== [[Daily Life Arc]] ==
When [[Tsunayoshi Sawada|Tsuna]] was running away with [[Futa]] from the [[Todd Famiglia]] members, Chikusa was seen at a vending machine as Tsuna ran by with Futa on his back, recognizing the latter as the Ranking Futa, and later on curiously gazing up when [[Reborn]] fired the [[Dying Will Bullet]] at Tsuna, as it made a rather loud sound. Afterwards, he returned to Kokuyo Land and reported to Mukuro that he found Ranking Futa.

=== List Countdown ===
[[File:Chikusa & yoyos.PNG|left|thumb|193x193px|Injured Chikusa tries to attack Yamamoto.]]
Chikusa first appears with [[Ken Joshima|Ken]] was observing his battle with someone on the list. He later challenges [[Hayato Gokudera|Gokudera]] in a Namimori Shopping District, killing two bystanders who were interested in seeing them fight, which shocked Gokudera. He then engages in battle with Gokudera, and as Gokudera questioned which Family he was from, Chikusa finally found a lead to their target: Vongola. At first, Chikusa seems to have the upper hand, but he underestimated the third-ranked on the list, resulting in Chikusa taking on serious damage. However, Chikusa proves to have a very resilient body as he is still able to stand despite being heavily injured. Learning that Tsuna, who came to warn Gokudera, is the 10th Vongola Boss, Chikusa shot his needles with the intention to take Tsuna with him, but incapacitate [[Hayato Gokudera|Gokudera]] instead when he tried to save [[Tsunayoshi Sawada|Tsuna]]. Before Chikusa could attack Tsuna again, the latter was saved by [[Takeshi Yamamoto|Yamamoto]], who sliced one of his Hedgehog Yo-Yos. Recognizing Yamamoto as Ken's next target, Chikusa decides to retreat while muttering wanting to take a shower. Once he reached Kokuyo Land, he immediately passed out from his injuries.

=== Kokuyo Land Invasion ===
[[File:Chikusa & Ken Defeated.PNG|thumb|200px|Chikusa and Ken defeated by Hibari|alt=]]
For the first half of the Invasion, Chikusa is unseen, as he is recuperating from his battle earlier with Gokudera. However, he comes back in the latter half of the Arc to battle Gokudera on Mukuro's orders after the group (without Yamamoto) proceeds into the main building. He battles Gokudera until his side-effects kick-in; along the way, proving again, he can take large hits by being hit dead-on with dynamite explosions and only wobbling. At this point, Ken breaks through the glass Gokudera is resting on, and deals a heavy blow to him. This allowed him and Chikusa ample time to finish him off. The two look on as Gokudera rests helplessly at the base of a flight of steps. But, they allow him time to release [[Kyoya Hibari|Hibari]], who quickly defeats them both off-screen.

=== Mukuro Face-off ===
After [[Mukuro Rokudo|Mukuro's]] [[Possession Bullet]] is revealed, Chikusa and Ken come back to aid Gokudera and Bianchi, as the four are being controlled by Mukuro. However, after Tsuna receives his [[X-Gloves]] from [[Leon]], he easily defeats both of them. This ended Chikusa's involvement in the Arc, and his last appearance was when he was dragged off by the [[Vindice]] along with Ken and Mukuro.

== [[Varia Arc]] ==
=== [[Mist Ring Battle]] ===
[[File:Ken & Chikusa.PNG|thumb|200px|Ken and Chikusa during the Mist Battle|alt=|left]]
Chikusa and Ken appear when Tsuna was told to buy drinks after he questioned who the Mist Guardian is. When he reached the shop, however, Tsuna immediately fainted when Ken surprised him from behind. After a short conversation with Reborn, he and Ken left as Ken says that Tsuna's Mist Guardian is too good for him. Chikusa later appear again in the gym where Mist Ring Battle took place, escorting [[Chrome Dokuro|Chrome]]. After Mukuro defeated Mammon, he changed back to Chrome who was exhausted and fell asleep. Chikusa and Ken left without her.

=== [[Cloud Ring Battle]] ===
Chikusa and Ken watched Hibari's fight under Mukuro's order. During [[Gola Moska]]'s rampage, they saved Chrome from the mines that were buried within the ground that she accidentally stepped on while avoiding the attack. This left them unguarded and trapped between Gola Moska and rifle pointed at them. Fortunately, Tsuna arrived in time, protecting the three of them from both attacks.

=== [[Sky Ring Battle]] ===
He and Ken secretly followed Chrome to the last match, but was found out by the Cervello and was told to stay and watch outside the battlefield along with Reborn, [[Colonello]], [[Basil]], and [[Doctor Shamal|Shamal]] until the match ends. He stopped Ken when he tried to save Chrome.

== [[Future Arc]] ==
=== Battle with Glo Xinia ===
According to Kusakabe, five years before Tsuna and the others' arrival in the future, Future Chikusa, Ken, and Chrome tried to free Mukuro from Vindice Prison. Unfortunately, this attempt failed and since then their status were unknown. However, Future Chrome was spotted to be alive, hinting that Ken and Chikusa were also safe in hiding on their own. Later, Chikusa, along with Ken, makes a cameo appearance during Chrome's battle with [[Glo Xinia]] in a flashback. Ken was talking about their secret hiding hole and put gum in it, after which Chikusa commented that gum was not an emergency ration. Chikusa, along with Mukuro and Ken, makes another appearance during Chrome's battle with Glo Xinia as [[Illusions|Real Illusions]] made from Chrome, with the help of her Vongola Mist Ring. 

=== [[Primo Family Arc]] ===
He first appeared when he told [[Kyoko Sasagawa|Kyoko]], [[Haru Miura|Haru]], and [[Bianchi]] that Chrome disappeared ever since Tsuna and the others comes back from the future. Later when Chrome returns, he notices that Chrome was teary eyed. He pointed this out to Ken, who tries to make her feel better by offering her snacks, to which she refuses, before breaking down and crying. He and Ken tries to figure out what's wrong with her. The next day, he and Ken met Tsuna and his friends outside of Kokuyo Land and informed them about Chrome's return and about her strange behaviour, prompting Tsuna and the others to hurry to her place. When Ken said he's going to buy snacks, Chikusa correctly guesses that he's going to buy chocolates for Chrome to cheer her up.

When Chikusa and Ken returned, however, they were shocked to see that the whole Kokuyo Land building had disappeared, forcing them to wait. After the building appeared again, he and Ken were about to question Tsuna, but was interrupted by Chrome whom they realized has already returned to normal.

=== [[Future Final Battle Arc]] ===
[[File:Future Ken And Chikusa.PNG|thumb|200px|Future Chikusa and Ken]]
He has recently appeared alongside Ken and [[M.M]] after [[Fran]] freed Mukuro from Vindice. They then escorted Mukuro to Japan to help protect [[Uni]] from [[Byakuran]]. Arriving at the battlefield, he and Ken fought against [[Zakuro]]. Chikusa and everyone else were watching the battle between Tsuna and [[Ghost]], and then Tsuna's battle with Byakuran. After Byakuran was defeated, he was seen with Mukuro and Ken, calling out to Chrome, that it's almost time to go back to the past.

Chikusa, along with Mukuro, Ken, and M.M went to countryside of France called Jura to recruit Fran into their team. He strained and told Mukuro to calm down when the latter intended to attack Fran out of anger for calling him pineapple fairy. When Mukuro and Squalo managed to stop Fran, the boy began his insult by calling Chikusa glasses-fairy and his skin is like an eraser, much to Chikusa's annoyance.

=== 1st Day of Representative Battle ===
Chikusa is then later seen accompanying Mukuro as he went to Namimori to announce to Tsuna his "declaration of war."

=== 2nd Day of Representative Battle ===
During the second day of Representative Battle of the Rainbow, he, Mukuro, Ken, and Fran ambushed Team Reborn and Team Uni. He and Ken were disqualified from the battle after their wristwatches were destroyed by Colonnello's Maximum Rifle. Shortly after the end of the battle, the Kokuyo Gang were attacked by a Vindice while Verde was away on an Arcobaleno meeting. Mukuro told Chikusa to retreat. Chikusa at first hesitated because he was worried Mukuro would sacrifice himself again, but after Mukuro promised he'll return, Chikusa told Ken to step back because they'll only become a hindrance.

=== 3rd Day of Representative Battle ===
During the third day of the Representative Battle of the Rainbow, he and Ken rejoined the battle by using the two remaining spare wristwatches, allowing them to assist Mukuro and Team Reborn to fight the Vindice. However, when the Vindice's true form are finally revealed, he, Ken, Yamamoto, and Gokudera were easily knocked down by the Vindice, leaving only Mukuro and Tsuna to fight them. After the third battle was over, Chikusa and Ken were taken back to Kokuyo Land along with Mukuro to treat their injuries.
