Their front may be as a private investigation agency, but the underworld has a different name for them - hitmen. This trio of wicked weasels are known as assassins, working at night. There’s Klaw, an arrogant prodigy who tries way too hard to look cool, Stall, the bloodthirsty maniac who uses Kama to compensate for his lack of arm scythes, and their boss Sleaze, a gruff, hard-bitten weasel born without any scythes but making up for it with his calculating planning prowess. Currently, the three have been hired by a certain company to track down these mysterious curved beads by any means necessary - a job that can sometimes be complicated by their tendency to overextend due to arrogance.

Hmm, I thought this was going to be simple, but it's not. But the whirlwind looks like it could be written as either つむじ (tsu-mu-ji) or with the kanji 旋. The reason for the two different renderings (Tsumuji and Sen) is because these are two possible readings of this particular kanji. Given the romaji in the column, it looks like the creature's name is Tsumuji ("Tu" is simply an older, and I would say outdated, way to romanize "Tsu"). Good luck!
