Norisuke Higashikata IV

Norisuke Higashikata the 4th is a descedant of Norisuke Higashikata mentioned in Steel Ball Run. He is the father of Joushuu Higashikata and the guardian of the protagonist for the time being. He is the head of Higashikata fruit company which was established by Norisuke Higashikata from SBR with the money he won from the race. He is seemingly very glad to help the protagonist and even puts him over his own son, Joushuu. Towards the end of the 7th chapter he starts acting creepy, secretative and bossy with the words "My words is the law in this house".

Later on in the series, he walks in on Josuke appearing to about to have sex with Daiya, swearing that he'll kill him for being a rapist later.
