Kagutsuchi (加具土命 かぐつち) is the god of fire in Kiki Shinwa (記紀神話 ききしんわ), Japanese mythology. Benimaru couldn’t be the captain without Konro’s support. He understands Benimaru’s overwhelming strength, charisma, and even internal conflict about if he was good enough to take over Hibachi’s position. Konro Sagamiya (相模屋 紺炉 さがみや こんろ) is Benimaru’s best friend and he works as a firefighter with him in Asakusa. So, the fire fighters in Asakusa take cares of kids who have lost their family in fires. It looks like they live with Benimaru and Konro together, but we’ve never seen or heard of their parents. Why I thought so is Hikage and Hinata, the little twins who are always with Benimaru and Konro. How Hibachi met and “picked up” Benimaru is not explained in the story, but I guess Benimaru had lost his family in the fire. According to Benimaru, he used to be like a stray dog and Hibachi “picked him up”.

He was raised in Akakusa (浅草 あさくさ), Tokyo by his master Hibachi Shinmon (新門 火鉢 しんもん ひばち) who was the captain of the firefighters in Asakusa back then though they were not blood relatives.
