Tianyou Zhao (趙 天佑, Zhào Tiānyòu/天陽趙, Ten Yō Shō) is a character in Yakuza: Like a Dragon, joining Ichiban's party in Chapter 11. He is the commander of the Yokohama Liumang and a member of the Ijin Three.

Despite his seemingly unhinged demeanor, Zhao is a thoughtful and caring man who struggled to find his place early on in his life. He was forced to put on a facade as a ruthless and sadistic gangster to keep up appearances as leader of the Liumang, but was deeply concerned with the well-being of his men and always sought to give them a home.

Since joining Kasuga's party, his heroic nature is further highlighted. Finally finding somewhere he can belong in, Zhao gladly tags along with Kasuga and company and has become more than ready to give his life for them and their shared cause despite the dangers they come across.

Zhao also enjoys cooking, and the party comments on how good his chili shrimp is in particular.
