Yoshikazu Taru is a Japanese professional wrestler, better known as Taru. He is signed to Makai, while working for Pro Wrestling Zero1, where he is the leader of the Voodoo Murders, he has worked for All Japan Pro Wrestling, Diamond Ring, Wrestle Association R and Toryumon: Japan known as Dragon Gate. Taru trained in professional wrestling from a karate background as part of Koji Kitao's Buko Dojo and started wrestling in 1996 for Wrestle Yume Factory, Wrestle Association R and other independent promotions, he debuted in WAR in December 1996 under his real name as part of Kitao's entourage. Like his partners, Taru wrestled in a modified karategi and utilized kicks and grappling holds in a shoot-style gimmick. Although he sometimes teamed up with Masaaki Mochizuki and Takashi Okamura, Taru wrestled low level matches, having an on/off rivalry with Osamu Tachihikari and other beginners. In November 1998, as part of a working agreement between WAR and Último Dragón's Toryumon, Taru traveled to Mexico, where he took part in team matches along with the heel stable Crazy MAX.

Around this time, Taru changed his gimmick away from his shoot-style roots, starting to use boots, leather bodysuits and more villainous traits. He never returned to WAR instead moving full time to Toryumon. Taru's debut in the Japanese branch of Toryumon happened in February 3, 1998, where he participated along with Mochizuki and Keiichi Kono in a special match between Buko Dojo members. About the end of the match, Crazy MAX came to the ring and attacked all the wrestlers except by Taru, whom they inducted into their stable. Through this way, Taru adopted his definitive role in Toryumon and became Crazy MAX's suave yakuza-like manager and mouthpiece, he would always be clad in tailored dark suits and wield a black-painted baseball bat which he would use to attack their enemies with. For many years they were a powerful faction in Toryumon Japan and Dragon Gate but the group dissolved on November 2, 2004, Taru left the promotion. After leaving Toryumon, Taru soon showed up in All Japan Pro Wrestling, where he formed a tag team with Johnny Stamboli.

After adding Chuck Palumbo, he created the stable Voodoo Murders and announced his plans to take over AJPW. This prompted them to clash with another villainous faction, Taka Michinoku and his group Roughly Obsess and Destroy, causing them to feud for the next year. Taru recruited his former Toryumon enemies Shuji Kondo and Yasshi, as well as the superheavyweight Giant Bernard, changed his yakuza outlook for a more bizarre, sinister cult leader image. Under this new character, he now used illegal tactics and weapons like garrotes and lead pipes, opted to grant himself disqualifications in the process of beating down opponents with the help of his stablemates; the rivalry with RO&D ended in September 2006, when Taru and Michinoku agreed to a trios match where the loser should disband his stable. However, unbeknown to his opponent, Taru had secretly bought the loyalty of Michinoku's partners D'lo Brown and Bull Buchanan, who betrayed RO&D in midst of the bout to give Voodoo Murders the final win.

Taru and his group proceeded to beat down Taka until Keiji Kaz Hayashi made the save. As a consequence, Voodoo Murders left as AJPW's greatest heel faction, Mutoh and his alliance of babyface wrestlers became their main opponents. Taru wrestled one match against The Great Muta as The Great Ruta in November 2005. Taru challenged Satoshi Kojima for the Triple Crown on January 8, 2006. However, Kojima defended his title. In July 2007, Kojima shocked the All-Japan roster when he turned on them and joined the Voodoo Murders, where he was made the group's co-leader alongside Taru. Soon after joining and Taru won the World Tag Team Championship. Along with Big Daddy Voodoo, he won the All Asia Tag Team Championship. On June 1, 2011, Taru was suspended indefinitely by AJPW after an alleged attack on stablemate Nobukazu Hirai leaving Hirai hospitalised with an acute hematoma. All Japan also suspended Taru's stablemates Masayuki Kono and Minoru for not attempting to stop Taru's assault on Hirai and disbanded the Voodoo Murders, while the promotion's president Keiji Mutoh took the blame for the incident and resigned from his position on June 7.

On June 30, TARU's suspension was upheld, while his former stablemates were allowed to return to action. Taru took a near two year hiatus from professional wrestling after the incident. In January 22, 2013, announced that he would be returning to professional wrestling for the Diamond Ring promotion on February 11. Taru's return match, where he and Kazunari Murakami faced Kento Miyahara and Taishi Takizawa, ended in a no contest, following run-ins from "brother" Yasshi and Kengo Nishimura. Afterwards, Murakami and Nishimura, reforming the Voodoo Murders, were defeated in an eight-man tag team match by Miyahara, Satoshi Kajiwara and Mitsuhiro Kitamiya. After the match and Takizawa turned on their partners and joined the new Voodoo Murders, with Yasshi positioned as the leader; the new Voodoo Murders would decrease their appearances in Diamond Ring in favor of Pro Wrestling Zero1, where they moved to after the former promotion's demise. Voodoo Murders would debut in Zero1 feuding with him. However, Kamikaze would turn on his teammates and join Taru.

Voodoo Murders allied with Daemon Ueda's Daemon-gun, forming a super stable unofficially named VD-gun. On January 3, 2015, AJPW announced that Taru would be returning to the promotion on January 31 t
