Gyokko is one of the primary antagonists in the Sword Smith Village arc, along with Hantengu.
Gyokko came across the Mist Pillar Muichiro Tokito during the Sword Smith village arc; Muichiro confronted Gyokko for killing one of the swordsmiths, because of which a fight broke out between the two, and Muichiro using his Third Form: Scattering Mist Splash managed to cut Gyokko’s head only to learn that the body had been a puppet.
Then Gyokko started having fun with the mist pillar and showed him the artwork he had developed after eating his latest victims.
Gyokko moved from pot to pot and used his blood demon art Water Basin of Hell which wounded Muichiro.
But finally, after recovering, he used the Breath of Mist. Second Form: Layered Mist, Muichiro come out of the bubble trap.

Why did Gyokko become a demon?
Gyokko’s original name before transforming into a demon was Managi, and Managi used to live alone on the outskirts of the fisherman’s village.
When a flood hit the village, his village was drowned, and his parents died as well; Managi, from his childhood, was an abnormal child who used to love collecting dead fish, and when his parents died due to the drowning incident, he was fascinated to see their bodies.
Most of the children in the village used to make fun of him and tease him because of his abnormal behaviour and his addiction to collecting dead fish.
Because of this, one of the children made fun of him, and due to this enraged, Managi killed him.
Due to this, the child’s parents stabbed Managi.
They left him to die, and eventually, Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji found him and was fascinated by the fact that a child had killed another child.
Because of this, he gave his demon blood to Managi and transformed him into Gyokko.
Gyokko became Upper Demon Five and started killing people to grow stronger in powers.
