| 18 | |
| 19 | The savage and powerful pirate crew led by Kaido, one of the Four Emperors. Befitting their name, most of their members have a wild, barbarian-like appearance and share their captain's violent and bloodthirsty attitude. They are currently occupying Wano Country after allying with shogun Kurozumi Orochi, having helped him take over the country and hunt down the remnants of the late daimyo Kozuki Oden's affiliates, and in exchange are allowed to use Wano as their base of operations and weapons factory. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | The crew in total has about 20,000 members and using their connections in the Underworld, the Animal Kingdom Pirates have amassed a powerful army of over 500 Zoan Devil Fruit users, courtesy of their alliance with Warlord Donquixote Doflamingo and scientist Caesar Clown, who provided the crew with the artificial Zoan-type Devil Fruits known as [=SMILEs=]. They have also gained the allegiance of several powerful members of the Eleven Supernovas, namely X. Drake, Basil Hawkins, and Scratchman Apoo, and their crews. They are the main antagonists in the Zou Arc and one of the main antagonist groups in the Wano Country Arc. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | After Luffy and the Straw Hats defeated both Donquixote Doflamingo and Caesar Clown, halting the production of [=SMILEs=], the Animal Kingdom Pirates have sworn revenge on them for hampering their operations. After Kaido clashes with Big Mom during the Wano Arc, the Animal Kingdom Pirates [[BigBadDuumvirate form an alliance]] with the [[Characters/OnePieceBigMomPirates Big Mom Pirates]] to [[TakeOverTheWorld conquer the world]]. |

| 26 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 27 | |
| 28 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 29 | * {{Animorphism}}: Fitting for a crew of pirates named the Animal Kingdom Pirates, many members are Zoan Devil Fruit users, with the Gifters and most Headliners being SMILE users while the Lead Performers and Tobi Roppo have been shown to use genuine Zoan Devil Fruits thus far. |
| 30 | * BadassNormal: Strictly and explicitly averted. Any crewmember above fodder must have a devil fruit or SMILE ability. And it doesn’t matter if their ability is of any actual use, either. |
| 31 | * BadassCrew: Fittingly for a pirate crew captained by one of the Emperors, they are one of the strongest crews in the world with many very strong individuals such as the Lead Performers, the Tobi Roppo and several Supernovas serving as high-ranked members. Also, the 500 Smile users of the crew are noted to be a very powerful force. |
| 32 | * CombatPragmatist: The Animal Kingdom Pirates have at their disposal special weapons to get the advantage over their opponents such as bullets made of Seastone in order to incapacitate Devil Fruit users or long-range cannons on several of their warships so they can destroy ships without being in danger. They also have no issue using chemical or biological weapons, such as the ones made by Caesar Clown or Queen, if it allows them to get an edge over their foes. |
| 33 | * {{Cyborg}}: The crew include a surveillance system found in the "Marys", animals wearing paper masks with an eye mark allowing them to share anything they see and hear between them, and Bao Huang. Their name is also a pun on the Japanese expression "Having Eyes" (Me ari). |
| 34 | * DubNameChange: In the VIZ Media English translation of the manga, as well as the Funimation subtitles, they are known as the '''Animal Kingdom Pirates'''. Funimation formerly used the term "Beasts Pirates". |
| 35 | * DumbMuscle: A pretty consistent trait across Kaido's crew; while Drake and Hawkins are pretty sharp, most of the lower-ranking members are violent thugs who are dumb as bricks, and while Jack is clearly smarter than some of the absolute morons that Kaido has working for him, his pervasive StupidEvil tendencies and wildly impulsive nature don't help his case. King is also brighter than the average Headliner or anyone below that, but he also has some proven LeeroyJenkins tendencies that worked out solely due to sheer dumb luck. Queen is actually pretty smart, being able to create bullets with deadly viruses, but not very wise since he tries to challenge [[spoiler:''Big Mom'' when she accidentally hits his BerserkButton, even though he knows how strong she is]]. Lampshaded when [[spoiler:Queen chews King out for starting shit with the Big Mom Pirates outside of Wano to begin with]]. |
| 36 | * EvenEvilHasStandards: Several of them, when Yamato was a child, expressed genuine concern when Kaido locked Yamato up in a cave with several samurai and only a little food, and later tried to starve him, to the point some of them actually smuggled Yamato food. However, when Kaido finds out that his subordinates disobeyed him, it ended badly for them. |
| 37 | * FlawedPrototype: The artificial Zoan Devil Fruit they eat isn't even guaranteed to work and even when it does, the users are often left with strange mutations where only parts of their bodies are made animal like and it's even possible for the animals bit to behave independently of the fruit user. It's implied that the formula and process to create these artificial Devil Fruits hasn't been perfected. Of course it's also implied that Ceasar Clown created the process by analyzing Dr. Vegapunk's own artificial Devil Fruit without any knowledge or notes on how Vegapunk created his Devil Fruit in the first place. So the artificial Devil Fruit that Kaido's people are eating are like copies of a copy, indeed, while there is only one natural variant of any devil fruit, there can be multiple functioning copies of a [=SMILE=] fruit, like six horse [=SMILE=] users or animals that have a corresponding Devil Fruit, like the giraffe and the elephant. |
| 38 | * FlunkyBoss: Unlike previous villains, the Animal Kingdom Pirates have absolutely no sense of MookChivalry, meaning that the top brass have no issue letting their {{Mooks}} run interference in the middle of fights. Who's-Who even mocks Jimbei by claiming that he's naive if he was expecting a one-on-one fight. |
| 39 | * GangOfHats: Many members of the crew wear horns or horned helmets on their heads, to emulate their captain, [[HornedHumanoid Kaido]] and show their affiliation. [[spoiler:When the Ninja-Samurai-Mink-Pirate Alliance infiltrate in Onigashima, Kin'emon gives everyone a disguise with his Devil Fruit power, and said disguise includes a pair of fake horns.]] |
| 40 | * GiantMook: Many unnamed and minor crew members, either gifters, pleasures, or waiters, are much bigger and intimidating looking then the usual fodder, but they are usually defeated with the same level of ease as smaller crew mates. |
| 41 | * HowTheMightyHaveFallen: [[spoiler: After their defeat in the Onigashima War, they go from one of the most fearsome pirate crews of the world to a bunch of defeated, broken-up bunch off stragglers, their status as an Emperor crew stripped. Rather appropriately, Onigashima, the seat of their power, is sent to the bottom of Wano's sea.]] |
| 42 | * KlingonPromotion: If Kaido allows it, a Tobi Roppo can challenge Lead Performer to a duel, and, in case of victory, he/she takes their place. It works with lower positions as well. However, since most everyone in the crew hate each other, it means everyone is willing to eliminate a superior to take his place. Queen invokes this by expressing his intention of eliminating a Tobi Roppo and handing his/her position to whoever defeats Luffy. |
| 43 | * MassOhCrap: All of Jack's crew realize they're screwed when they see [[spoiler:Zunesha's trunk coming at them]]. Likewise, when the staff of the Prison Mines see [[spoiler:Big Mom arriving after she broke down the gates]], they all start to panic. |
| 44 | * PlayingCardMotifs: The Lead Performers are all named after cards (Jack, Queen and King), while most Headliners share their names with different card games. |
| 45 | * RankScalesWithAsskicking: Like other pirate crews and most organizations, the higher the rank a member of the Animal Kingdom Pirates is, the stronger they are. Interestingly, AsskickingLeadsToLeadership also applies here, since this is actually an official rule and philosophy within the crew's ranking system, being described as a "meritocracy" by Who's-Who where strength and skill denotes authority. Even the Lead Performers' positions can be claimed if you're strong enough to defeat them. Many members of the crew were former pirates, notable Captains and Super Rookies, who were utterly defeated by Kaido and his crew and joined him out of fear of his strength. |
| 46 | * ReforgedIntoAMinion: When Kaido meets an independent pirate that gathers his interest, he recruits him into his own crew. Some of the Animal Kingdom Pirates are former independent pirates captains and their crews that were defeated by Kaido and joined him willingly after or who were enslaved into the mines of Udon until they were broken in submission and swore allegiance to him. He tries to do it with Luffy and Kid but their spirits don't break and the two eventually start a riot in the prison mines. |
| 47 | * {{Stripperiffic}}: While Ginrummy (the first seen female member) is the most obvious example, it's pretty clear no one in the Animal Kingdom Pirates (other than Scotch, a cyborg) seems to wear much at all; not even ''Kaido himself'' has a shirt on. King is the only member seen who is fully dressed. |
| 48 | * StupidEvil: This is a common trait across the crew. While there certainly ''are'' intelligent, pragmatic members who don't regularly grab the VillainBall or engage in short-sighted, petty acts of violence and destruction, the average mook in Kaido's employ is a vicious bully with zero impulse control and awful judgment who will smash things up and start fights with people above their weight class just because. And given the actions of the Lead Performers, it seems that this is even present among the upper echelons of the crew as well (just [[DownplayedTrope not as badly]]). |
| 49 | * SuperpowerRussianRoulette: The powers given by the artificial [=SMILEs=] turn out to be this since, unlike genuine Devil Fruits, they are flawed and incomplete, their powers manifesting in completely random ways. Some, like Sheepshead or Speed, seem to have gotten lucky, getting functional powers while only giving them some animal features. Others, like Gazelleman, ended up getting animal abilities their bodies are not fully capable of handling, such as the stamina to run at high speeds. Then there's poor saps like Holdem and Dobon, who ended up a complete mess of a merge between human and animal forms. Furthermore, the fruits only have a 10% chance of granting one powers. The other 90% not only lose their ability to swim, but end up becoming {{Perpetual Smiler}}s known as "Pleasures". |
| 50 | * TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: Despite the Fire Festival being considered to be the most important annual event for them and the presence of the vast majority of the crew there the security at Onigashima during the festival is strongly neglected as nearly all the Animal Kingdom Pirates are busy drinking and feasting and the small forces tasked of watching over the harbor or receiving Transponder Snail calls drink instead of doing their duty. This allows the Pirate-Samurai-Ninja-Mink alliance to easily infiltrate Onigashima as the Animal Kingdom Pirates that were on ships outside couldn't warn their comrades about the alliance due to them being too drunk to respond to their calls and the ones watching over the port are easily neutralized by Usopp. |
| 51 | * ThemeNaming: Many high-ranking members of the crew are named after cards or card games of some kind, with the Lead Performers being named after the three highest card ranks. Their rank are a nod to terms associated with Rakugo theater. |
| 52 | * UnskilledButStrong: The majority of the Devil Fruit users on the crew, including most of the higher-ups, are all Zoan users, and the general theme of the low-level pirates is that they are all physically strong but lacking in brains. There's almost no indication of any Animal Pirate besides Hawkins and Apoo (who started their own crews elsewhere before joining) having a special ability that is related to creative usage of their powers, or even the Tobi Roppo like a few members of Big Mom's crew -- just raw force. They've also got the World's Strongest Creature as their captain, and Jack (whose bounty is the lowest among the Lead Performer) has a bounty only a little lower than Charlotte Katakuri's, who's got the highest bounty in Big Mom's crew after Big Mom herself. |
| 53 | * WrongContextMagic: Most Headliners and all the Gifters have eaten [=SMILEs=], which are artificial Devil Fruits that aren't as complete as a Zoan Devil Fruit. Unlike a standard Zoan, the users don't change into an animal and hybrid form but are either stuck with some animalistic body parts, or can transform part of their body into an animal part or an entire animal. |

| 70 | |
| 71 | The elite of the Gifters and officers of the Animal Kingdom Pirates who directly lead the troops. A majority of them have eaten [=SMILEs=] and received more power-ups than the average Gifter. It also seems to be the standard rank for powerful pirate captains that have allied with the crew, such as Scratchman Apoo and Basil Hawkins. Many of them are in charge of the towns and villages in the Land of Wano, being the ones to address small-scale issues happening nearby, and some of them are positioned as wardens in the prison mines. |
| 72 | ---- |
| 73 | * BodyHorror: Several Headliners have eaten [=SMILEs=]. Therefore most of them are transformed in very strange hybrids, like having a lion's head in their belly, ram horns instead of hands or having the behind turned into a giraffe's body. What's more some of these animal parts are ''sentient'' as well and many of the users have little to no control over them and treat them like their pets. |
| 74 | * MookLieutenant: They have authority over the Gifters, Pleasures, Waiters, and anyone lower but, with the exception of the Tobi Roppo and Supernovas like Hawkins and Apoo, most of them are weak compared to the All Stars. |
| 75 | * SuperpowerRussianRoulette: For the ones that have eaten [=SMILEs=], they gain useful powers at the cost of becoming horrifically or hilariously deformed by the various animal parts manifesting in random and unpredictable ways on their bodies. The Headliners on average seem to fare better than the Gifters in this regard, since most of them have gotten powers that enhance their abilities. |
| 76 | * ThemeNaming: Most Headliners are named after card games. |

| 83 | [[caption-width-right:350:From the left: Sasaki, Drake, Black Maria, Who's-Who, Page One, Ulti]] |
| 84 | |
| 85 | A special group of the six strongest Headliners and the closest to Kaido besides the Lead Performers. Just like the latter, they don't cooperate much and prefer to act on their own. Unlike most of the Headliners, the Tobi Roppo have eaten actual Devil Fruits; notably, all of them are Ancient Zoans. |
| 86 | ---- |
| 87 | * TheAce: They are the six strongest Headliners in the crew. |
| 88 | * AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: Drake, Sasaki and Who's-Who are former pirate captains of their previous crews and got the position of Tobi Roppo only by virtue of their sheer strength. |
| 89 | * TheComicallySerious: In-Universe, according to Queen. On Onigashima, he gives a role-call to each Animal Kingdom Pirate group, all of which respond except for the Tobi Roppo. He laughs it off since they never respond anyway. Sure enough, they're formally introduced with serious juxtaposition to the rest of the Animal Kingdom Pirates. |
| 90 | * DesignatedGirlFight: There are two female Tobi Roppo, Ulti and Black Maria, and, after shuffling some opponents during the Onigashima War, they end up fighting against the two female straw hats, respectively Nami and Nico Robin. |
| 91 | * DinosaursAreDragons: Their dinosaur Ancient Zoans manifest from ''Ryu Ryu'' (Dragon-Dragon) Devil Fruits. This is owed to the Japanese word for "Dinosaur", "Kyoryu" being written with the characters for "Fearful" and "Dragon". |
| 92 | * DubNameChange: Averted. The Viz translations call them by the original spelling of their name, ''Tobi Roppo'', despite meaning "Flying Six" in Japanese. |
| 93 | * FeetFirstIntroduction: When all of the Tobi Roppo arrive at Onigashima, they're only shown by their feet, distinguished by their legs and different footwear (except Black Maria, who's only a vague silhouette in the distance). They make their first full appearance in the next chapter. |
| 94 | * HornedHumanoid: While they all appear to be humans, coincidentally enough, with the exception of Drake [[spoiler:who's just a Marine undercover]], they all have a pair of horns (Sasaki’s are fake, Who's Who's, Black Maria's, Ulti's, and Page One's are real). This horned theme connects them and underlines their loyalty to Kaido. |
| 95 | * HornsOfVillainy: A distinctive traits of all of them is to have a pair of horns, whether the horns are real or part of their hats, except for Drake who styled his hair like a horn (a visual clue [[spoiler:that he's not loyal to Kaido]]), and are notorious members of an evil pirate crew. |
| 96 | * MeaningfulName: Tobi Roppo refers to Kabuki theater, but in this case is written with the final kanji 胞, which can mean sac or ''sheath''. |
| 97 | * NonMammalianHair: Drake, Sasaki, Ulti and Page One ate a Devil Fruit that turns them into dinosaurs, yet, they keep their hair even in their fully animal form. |
| 98 | * PrehistoricMonster: All six members have Devil Fruits of the Ancient Zoan variety, which allow them to transform into prehistoric creatures (most of which are dinosaurs), while their hybrid forms are more humanoid and monstrous-looking. Ironically their group shares this trait with the All-Stars/Lead Performers, with whom they do not get along. |
| 99 | * SuperToughness: Thanks to possessing an ancient zoan fruit, each is extremely resistant and can endure a lot of damage, even a direct hit from [[spoiler:Linlin, one of the four Emperors,]] and still fight again later. This make them extremely tough foes for the Straw Hats and last for a long while in Onigashima's chaotic battlefield before they're taken down for good. Their defeat marks a huge blow in the Animal Kingdom Pirates' morale. |
| 100 | * TeethClenchedTeamwork: Downplayed among themselves. They bicker and argue, but also confide amongst themselves, and certainly don't hate each other as much as the Lead Performers do. While they're ticked at having to gather together, it's mainly because it meant they got dragged away from whatever it was they were doing. It is played straight with their relationship with the Lead Performers, who seem to dislike them even more than they do each other. Ulti is introduced mocking Queen's authority, Sasaki and Who's-Who's actively refuse to answer to (at least) King and openly seek to replace the current All-Stars, and Queen also states that he intends to eliminate one of them, and is soon after seen exchanging {{Death Glare}}s with Who's-Who's. |
| 101 | * TomboyAndGirlyGirl: There are two female members of the Tobi Roppo: Ulti and Black Maria. While they both have a very feminine look, Ulti is brash and aggressive while Black Maria is a femme fatale. |
| 102 | * TwoGirlsToATeam: Among the Tobi Roppo there are two that are female: Black Maria and Ulti. |

| 122 | |
| 123 | One of the Tobi Roppo, appears as a stern and calm man with very long legs wearing a face-obscuring mask and smoking a cigarette. He rules over an area of the fourth floor of Kaido's castle known as "Cat Café" and is the captain of a cat-themed crew. |
| 124 | |
| 125 | He has eaten the Cat-Cat Fruit, Model: Sabertooth Tiger, which allows him to transform into a huge smilodon. |
| 126 | |
| 127 | He has a [[PriceOnTheirHead bounty]] of 546,000,000 berries, the highest among the Tobi Roppo. |
| 128 | ----- |
| 129 | * AnimalMotif: Who's-Who's crew-members have a cat theme: they are either cat-looking or wear a pair of cat ears and a cat tail. This goes in hand with Who's-Who's Devil Fruit, which allows him to transform into a sabertooth tiger. |
| 130 | * ArtisticLicensePaleontology: His sabertooth transformation has an ordinary cat tail [[spoiler:long enough for Jimbei to step on]], but real sabertooth tails were stubby. |
| 131 | * BadassInANiceSuit: While he keeps it open in the chest, Who's-Who wears an elegant red suit, hinting at his aggressive personality and [[spoiler:his past as a former [=CP9=] recruit]]. |
| 132 | * CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Befitting his previous occupation, he's a master of [[spoiler:the Six Powers, which are techniques of superhuman strength. Jimbei notices that Who's-Who is able to make special use of said techniques that most [=CP9=] agents can't.]] |
| 133 | * CombatPragmatist: He doesn't see any problem with his crew joining in the fight against Jimbei and more than happy to take the advantage, even mocking Jimbei for thinking it'd be a fair fight. [[spoiler: However once Tama issues her orders for those who ate her dangos to switch sides. This advantage is lost when one of his men starts attacking the others. With Who's-Who expressing annoyance that he actually has to personally fight Jimbei one-on-one after all.]] |
| 134 | * CoolMask: Unlike Ulti and Page One, his mask covers the top of his face, eyes included, instead of the mouth, giving him a sense of mystery around his appearance, reflecting his name. Said mask remains in his sabretooth form. Some of his crewmembers wear similar masks, making it easy to associate them with him. |
| 135 | * CoverBlowingSuperpower: While he tries to keep his identity hidden from Jimbei and have him guess, the moment he starts using [[spoiler:the Six Powers, Jimbei deduces he's a rogue [=CP9=] member.]] |
| 136 | * {{Engrish}}: In the original text, Who's-Who's Devil Fruit uses the Japanese-only "English" term "Saber-Tiger" to refer to the Sabertooth Tiger. |
| 137 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: Who's-Who doesn't realize that making light of a species horrors and hardships in slavery isn't exactly going to endear Jimbei to answer his questions. Once Jimbei starts countering him with more fiercer attacks, Who's-Who is puzzled why he got angry all of a sudden. [[spoiler: This is especially ironic considering Who's-Who mentioned he was tortured in prison after his failure to protect the Gum-Gum Fruit.]] |
| 138 | * FangsAreEvil: In his sabertooth form he gains enormous and intimidating canines, which he uses to shoot fang-shaped razor winds at his opponents [[spoiler:using a variant of Finger Pistol]]. |
| 139 | * FantasticRacism: Who's-Who makes derogatory comments about Fish-Men and calls Fish-Men history the "history of slavery" while asking Jimbei some questions, but his attitude and the way he treats slavery lightly doesn't endear Jimbei in the slightest. Instead, it makes Jimbei counterattack harder than before. |
| 140 | * {{Fingore}}: [[spoiler:Who's-Who unleashes a barrage of Finger Pistol attacks on Jimbei, but the latter's defense is so strong he ends up breaking both his fingers. Jimbei finishes the job using a Fishmen Karate grip attack to break his hands.]] |
| 141 | * GoodSmokingEvilSmoking: He's introduced smoking a cigarette with the others, and is one of Kaido's enforcers. |
| 142 | * HazyFeelTurn: [[spoiler: In the past, Who's-Who was part of [=CP9=], even considered one of their top agents next to Lucci, until the World Government imprisoned him for having failed to protect the Gum-Gum Fruit. Who's-Who escaped and became a pirate, meaning he's gone from working for the World Government to becoming a big threat to it, but he remains as bad as he used to be.]] |
| 143 | * HeKnowsTooMuch: [[spoiler:Upon realizing Who's-Who true identity, [=CP0=] wants him dead because of the information he has from his time being a [=CP9=] agent. They do discuss the notion that the information Who's-Who has is outdated, but conclude that he still needs to die anyway to set a precedent.]] |
| 144 | * InsaneTrollLogic: During his imprisonment at Impel Down, Who's-Who heard a story regarding "Sun God" Nika who would save slaves from their abusive masters. Who's-Who becomes obsessed with the story and tries to get some answers from Jimbei since he believes there may be a connection with Nika and Fish-men, a species with history of slavery, in part due to the Sun Pirates, a crew of Fish-men which consists mostly of former slaves. [[spoiler:It turns out [[TheCuckoolanderWasRight he was right]], though Jimbei himself knew nothing about the connection -- it's revealed secondhand via exposition from Zunesha and the Five Elder Stars]]. |
| 145 | * ItsPersonal: Who's-Who tells Jimbei he's been waiting to fight him, [[spoiler:since he resents Luffy for eating the Gum-Gum Fruit stolen from the ship he was protecting and said grudge extends to his crewmates]]. |
| 146 | * KatanasAreJustBetter: He carries a long katana with an elaborate scabbard with him. [[spoiler:Subverted as the scabbard actually contains a dagger that Who's-Who uses for his [[RazorWind Blade Pistol]] technique.]] |
| 147 | * MakeAnExampleOfThem: While [[spoiler:the [=CP0=] recognize that any information Who's-Who could reveal about his former occupation would be severely outdated and thus useless to anyone, they think they still need to kill him to show everyone that nobody can escape from the Cipher Pol and live to tell the tale]]. |
| 148 | * MeaningfulName: His name comes from a card game in which the player has to guess the identity of the other one's card, and Who's-Who wears a mask that hides most of his face. The name becomes doubly meaningful when Who's-Who mentions Jimbei to have a personal grudge with him, and the latter can't recognize him because of his mask. |
| 149 | * MegaNeko: The already large Who's-Who becomes gigantic in his sabertooth tiger form and dwarfs Jimbei in size. |
| 150 | * MisplacedRetribution: Who's-Who has a personal grudge against [[spoiler:Shanks for stealing the Gum-Gum fruit he was guarding, which resulted in his imprisonment, and extends this grudge to Luffy, who ate said fruit, and the rest of the Straw Hat crew despite them having done nothing to him]]. |
| 151 | * NoShirtLongJacket: Who's-Who wears a jacket and a shirt unbuttoned to show off his tattooed chest. |
| 152 | * PantheraAwesome: Who's-Who ate an Ancient Zoan of the Cat-Cat family which allows him to transform into a massive sabertooth tiger or a large sabertooth man in his hybrid form. |
| 153 | * RazorWind: Who's-Who uses his sword and his fangs to send wind-like attacks. [[spoiler:They are variants of Shigan called, respectively, Hagan (Blade Pistol) and Gagan (Fang Pistol), and he can also use Rankyaku.]] |
| 154 | * TheReveal: Who's-Who is named after a card game where the player has to guess another ones' card, and wears a mask that covers his identity, creating an aura of mystery regarding who he is. [[spoiler:In his duel with Jimbei, he reveals himself as a be a former [=CP9=] member and rival to Rob Lucci who was sent to prison for failing to stop the Red-Haired Pirates from stealing the Gum-Gum Fruit.]] |
| 155 | * SlasherSmile: After hearing of the offer to challenge an All-Star if he finds Kaido's son, Who's-Who doesn't say anything but has an excited smile, meaning he's very eager to do it. His wicked smile is amplified when he's transformed into a sabretooth. |
| 156 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: Who's-Who is a minor villain in the Wano Arc, but [[spoiler:his failed escort mission of the Gum Gum Fruit back as a [=CP9=] agent allowed it to fall into the hands of the main protagonist. He also introduces lore for the Sun God Nika who turns out to be intricately connected to the fruit.]] |
| 157 | * StrongAndSkilled: Unlike some of the other Tobi Roppo who mainly just rely on combining their Zoan transformation with a signature attack like Ulti, weapons and tricks like Black Maria, Sasaki and Drake or just using their brute force like Page One, Who's-Who actually has mastery of [[spoiler:Six Power techniques as a former member of [=CP9=] and equal to Rob Lucci]]. This would explain him having the highest bounty out of all of the Tobi Roppo, as well as compliments his fight against Jimbei, who uses Fishman Karate instead. |
| 158 | * TheStarscream: Downplayed. While waiting with the other Tobi Roppo, Who's-Who asks in a casual tone to his colleagues who they think will take Queen's position should he die. Maria's retort implies that Who's-Who wouldn't mind a promotion himself. He also gives a SlasherSmile when Kaido tells them that whoever finds his child Yamato and brings him back will have a chance to challenge a Lead Performer and take his place. |
| 159 | * TheStoic: Compared to the other Tobi Roppo, who are either bickering (Ulti and Page One) or teasing (Black Maria and Sasaki), Who's-Who appears to be calm and serious. He scolds the former two for acting like brats, though like the others, he does yell at Ulti when she calls Kaido an idiot. |
| 160 | * TattooedCrook: Who's-Who has some intricate tattoos on his chest, most notably an eye-like mark and his name on his pectorals. Like the others, he's a ruthless pirate. |
| 161 | * TopHeavyGuy: While Who's-Who is very slim, in his hybrid form his shoulders become massive while the legs remains relatively short and skinny. |
| 162 | * YouAreACreditToYourRace: While fighting Jimbei, Who's-Who comments that he moves very fast for a Fish-Man out of water, and Jimbei calls him out on his racist attitude. |
| 163 | * YouHaveFailedMe: [[spoiler:Who's-Who was dismissed from [=CP9=] for failing to protect the Gum-Gum Fruit, so he became a pirate captain and threw in his lot with Kaido, stating he's happy with his new arrangements. Though he still resents Luffy, since the latter's Gum-Gum abilities reminds him of his past failure.]] |

| 175 | |
| 176 | ->''"On a snowy night, two who wished to be united but could never be together, at last, will meet!! Beneath the light of the moon, their passions run high!!!"'' |
| 177 | -->--'''Chapter 992''' |
| 178 | |
| 179 | One of the Tobi Roppo, she's a very large woman clad in a dark kimono and smoking a pipe. She lives in a brothel-themed area on Onigashima and is the leader of an all female-team. Though very sensual, Black Maria is a sadistic and vicious woman, fond of luring her enemies into traps. |
| 180 | |
| 181 | She has eaten the Spider-Spider Fruit, Model: Rosamygale Grauvogeli, which allows her to transform at will into a massive black spider and shoot webs. She fights using brass knuckles or a Wanyudo on top of a polearm and can also set her webs on fire. |
| 182 | |
| 183 | She has a [[PriceOnTheirHead bounty]] of 480,000,000 berries. |
| 184 | ----- |
| 185 | * AllWebbedUp: Black Maria's Spider-Spider Fruit lets her create sticky web, which she uses to capture Sanji and to make traps to slow down Nico Robin, but she can also hand her webs off to her minions and let them do the capture. Said webs can be broken with ease if they're frozen. |
| 186 | * AmazonBrigade: Black Maria is the leader of a squad made almost exclusively by women, which means [[WouldntHitAGirl Sanji]] has no way to defeat Black Maria's squad, except the men he easily beats. |
| 187 | * BattleStrip: Black Maria removes her kimono when she's confronted by Nico Robin and Brook, revealing her bare torso and tattoo beneath. Brook does not complain. She does later wrap a sarashi around her chest for the remainder of the fight, likely for censorship purposes given the age demographic of the manga. |
| 188 | * BecomingTheMask: A dark example. She initially only seduces Sanji [[HoneyTrap to capture him and use him as bait for Nico Robin]], but does grow some personal feelings in the process. That's not a good thing, because she wants to keep him as a pet and slave who will love nobody but her. |
| 189 | * BellyMouth: Black Maria's Zoan manifests very differently from others in the series, giving her lower half in the shape of a spider, including its eyes and mouth, distinct from her own original body. |
| 190 | * CeilingCling: Black Maria chases Sanji while moving upside-down on the floor thanks to her spider Devil Fruit. |
| 191 | * CuteBruiser: Despite her sensual and elegant demeanor outside of battle, she’s actually a crude and sadistic close-range brawler much like the rest of her crew, primarily using her fists to beat her enemies with little mercy, all while looking no less beautiful throughout. |
| 192 | * DarkActionGirl: Black Maria is an evil and sensual femme fatale able to fight on par with the rest of the higher officers of the crew. She fights with fists equipped with brass knuckle, especially used when torturing someone and a Wanyudo on top of a pole. During her fight with Nico Robin, Black Maria shows multiple deadly technique and sets her brothel on fire. |
| 193 | * ElegantClassicalMusician: A Japanese variation to the standard trope, but Black Maria is dressed like an ''Oiran'' and when everyone is busy fighting, remains in the brothel, where the other women ask her to sing a lullaby, letting Black Maria show her singing and shamisen skills. |
| 194 | * EvilCannotComprehendGood: Black Maria is a malicious femme fatale who keeps men tangled in her web as pets and when Sanji declares he wants to love all the women of the world, rather than considering it a chivalrous declaration, Black Maria considers it cheating and tells Sanji to love only her. After Sanji called for Robin's help, Black Maria mocks his choice, defining it cowardly and weak, while Robin and Brook counters that she doesn't understand the importance of trusting your own crew mates. |
| 195 | * EvilGloating: Black Maria has a penchant for mocking her opponents during battles. She ridicules Sanji for calling on Robin and Brook to come help him and calls him a coward, hoping to get a rise out of the pair when they take over the fight. Neither take the bait however and refute her, stating Sanji was more of a man ''because'' he was willing to ask for help and trusted his crew enough to save him. When she has Robin on the ropes, Black Maria states that Robin is nothing special save for the knowledge that Kaido wants out of her but Robin quickly makes her eat those words once she frees herself and counterattacks. |
| 196 | * FatalFlaw: Black Maria's vanity is ultimately her undoing. She intentionally uses drugs to alter her Hybrid form to retain her human beauty. This leaves her human upper half weaker than her actual hybrid form would be and more vulnerable to damage, allowing Nico Robin to break her back and defeat her. |
| 197 | * FemmeFatale: Black Maria is a very attractive woman dressed like an oiran who lured many men into her brothel, who she then keeps tangled in her web as they plead for her and constantly declare their love to her. After capturing Sanji and forcing him to call for Nico Robin's help, Black Maria decides to add him to her collection. She also presents a tattoo on her back saying "女難" which translates to "women trouble" but is also the Japanese expression for femme fatale. |
| 198 | * TheFightingNarcissist: Black Maria is full of herself as nearly all of her moves have the word "Mari" in it in some form or another, such as "Mari-nette", "Mari-Apprehend" and "Mari-cade". Ironically the only move that isn't named after her is the knuckledusters she wields: Orian Knuckles. She also takes it very personally when Robin slaps her face hard enough to make her bleed at the beginning of their fight, leading her to declare her intention to break Robin's face. This obsession with her own appearance, which she keeps in her hybrid form through drugs, prevents her from fully benefitting from her natural Zoan toughness and makes her human half a vulnerable point. |
| 199 | * FiveSecondForeshadowing: Black Maria's minions trap Sanji with a spider web while Black Maria is half-hidden by her speech bubble in a dark room with several men hanging off the ground. The following chapter reveals that she ate the Spider-Spider Fruit, Model: Rosamygale Grauvogeli. |
| 200 | * GiantSpider: Her spider-based Devil Fruit, combined with her humongous size, allows Black Maria to turn into a truly gigantic spider-woman hybrid. Ironically, real life Rosamygale were tiny, under a centimeter in size. |
| 201 | * GiantWoman: She's an extremely gigantic, beautiful woman who's bigger than Kaido. From the bust-up alone she's nearly as tall as the other Tobi Roppo sat down and needs to be placed on a different floor from the other five to be at the same eye-level. When the Tobi Roppo are gathered before Kaido to be ordered to [[spoiler:search for his son]], it is shown that the absolutely massive King is barely taller than ''her waist''. [[AllThereInTheManual The Vivre Cards later reveal that she's 820cm (26'11"), making her the second tallest member of the Animal Kingdom Pirates after Jack]]. |
| 202 | * GoingCommando: Black Maria is completely topless under her kimono, only choosing to put on a sarashi after having already disrobed. This is likely to leave the tattoo on her back uncovered. |
| 203 | * GoodSmokingEvilSmoking: To go with her oiran looks she's smoking from a ''kiseru'', in a sort of female counterpart to the DistinguishedGentlemansPipe. |
| 204 | * HighClassCallGirl: Black Maria is a very attractive woman dressed as an ''Oiran'' and smokes from a kiseru, a kind of elegant pipe and has an impressive set of hair decorations associated with courtesans such as a comb, hairpins and sword blades, while her personal quarters are built to resemble a traditional Japanese brothel. Like most oirans, Black Maria is very good at singing and playing the shamisen. |
| 205 | * HoneyTrap: Black Maria seduces and lures Sanji with a song first and then by faking a sexual assault with her subordinates; once she's captured him, she uses him as bait for Nico Robin, the true target of the mission Kaido gave to Black Maria. However, Black Maria's feelings for Sanji aren't completely fake, but that actually makes her [[EntitledToHaveYou even worse]]. |
| 206 | * IronicEcho: In the climax of her fight with Robin, Maria has her on the ropes and pounds at her viciously while mocking that all Robin's good for is her knowledge and that she won't need her arms and legs, preparing to tear them off. Once Robin gets her HeroicSecondWind however and catches Maria with her new Demonio Fleur, she asks Maria what she said about not needing her arms and legs before breaking her spine. |
| 207 | * KimonoFanservice: Black Maria is a sensual woman who wears a kimono which exposes her shoulders and cleavage, similar to a Japanese oiran. |
| 208 | * LazyBum: In contrast to the other Tobi Roppo, who are ambitious and hungry for achievements, Black Maria is content to do the bare minimum of her station. Instead of hunting Yamato, she chooses to party with Kaido and even when the war begins in earnest, she deliberately keeps away from the combat and relaxes with her subordinates in her brothel, only setting traps for stray warriors to wander into. |
| 209 | * LogicalWeakness: Due to the drugs she uses, Black Maria's hybrid form leaves her upper body unchanged, which means half her body doesn't benefit from a Zoan's enhanced durability. As such, Robin is able to break her back with her Demonio Fleur technique. |
| 210 | * ManiacTongue: Her hybrid form has its own face, whose default expression is a deranged grin with its tongue hanging out. Black Maria herself likes to lick her lips while tormenting her enemies. |
| 211 | * MatchstickWeapon: Black Maria wields a long polearm with a wheel at the tip. Inside the wheel is a Gifter named Wanyudo that generates flames by running along its path, allowing Maria to burn others by striking them with the polearm. |
| 212 | * MinorInjuryOverreaction: When Robin arrives to save Sanji, she enters the fray by creating a gigantic arm to slap Black Maria in the face hard enough to draw blood. While it didn't do any serious damage, being such a ProudBeauty Black Maria took the slap very personally and during her beatdown of Robin, voices her desire to break Robin's face with her brass knuckles. |
| 213 | * OddNameOut: Black Maria's Zoan Devil Fruit is the only one to have the scientific name of its animal instead of the genus. |
| 214 | * OhCrap: Just when she thinks she has Robin at her mercy. Robin uses a move taught to her by Koala and Sabo to attack the ceiling and put out the flames around them. Then follows it up with a new clone body move, Demonio Fleur, a demonic looking version of Robin. Black Maria is so taken aback by the sight it allows Robin to set her up for her finishing move. |
| 215 | * OurCentaursAreDifferent: Unlike most Zoan hybrid forms, Black Maria's isn't an amalgam of her human body and a spider's, but rather her upper human half on top of a full spider body that has its own face. [[AllThereInTheManual The SBS explains]] that Maria has used drugs to alter her Devil Fruit's transformative powers, the result allowing her to retain her beauty. |
| 216 | * PersonalityPowers: Black Maria's passiveness fits her spider Devil Fruit, being content to wait in her web for prey to come to her. She lures Sanji into a trap by faking a sexual assault with her subordinates. |
| 217 | * PetTheDog: When [[spoiler:Kanjuro]] shows up and delivers to Orochi a bloodied and beaten Momonosuke, she picks him up and expresses some seemingly genuine pity for him, unlike the others. |
| 218 | * PlayingWithFire: Black Maria wields a flaming weapon to set ablaze her flammable webs and limit Nico Robin's movements, turning the fight into a BattleAmongstTheFlames until Brook puts the flames out. |
| 219 | * PoisonousPerson: The legs on her spider body are coated with poison. Robin is forced to let them go when she attempts to restrain Maria. |
| 220 | * PowerFist: After having caught Sanji, Black Maria resorts to beating him bloody with a pair of knuckledusters to make him call for help so she can lure out Nico Robin. Then she pounds on Robin significantly once she manages to pin her and says it's her preferred method of hurting people. |
| 221 | * ProudBeauty: She unapologetically insists Sanji fall in love with just her when attacking him and later has no problem stripping out of her kimono to proudly show off the tattoo on her back, even electing to spend the entire battle sans upper clothing (save for a sarashi around her chest). |
| 222 | * {{Sadist}}: Black Maria describes in gruesome detail to Sanji how she intends to torture and eventually kill Nico Robin once she captures her, all while smiling and lolling her tongue. Then she savagely beats him up with brass knuckles until he asks Robin for help, while he is restrained and does the same to Robin when she (Black Maria) restrains her during their fight. |
| 223 | * {{Sarashi}}: After removing her Kimono, Black Maria wears a sarashi wrapped around her breasts that keeps her decent for a Shonen demographic. |
| 224 | * SeductiveSpider: Black Maria is a seductive woman dressed like a Japanese oiran. With her Devil Fruit, she's capable of turning into a spider hybrid that resembles an alluring [[{{Youkai}} Jorogumo]]. Although the spider lower half of her transformation possesses a very cartoony face instead of a more realistic spider one, she nonetheless still retains her attractiveness in her human upper half. |
| 225 | * SpiderPeople: In her hybrid form, Black Maria turns her entire lower body into a spider while her upper half remains human, making her similar to the image of the [[{{Youkai}} Jorogumo]]. [[AllThereInTheManual In an SBS section]], Oda notes that this unusual division of human and animal traits is due to her disliking the Hybrid Zoan appearance and is likely achieved through taking some sort of drugs. Her native hybrid form is shown to transform her forearms and part of her face into those of a spider. |
| 226 | * SpidersAreScary: Subverted, although she's part of a villainous crew and has a spider-themed power, Black Maria is mostly affable and while her spider form includes the head, said head sports a cartoony face with a normal mouth full of rounded teeth rather than a spider-like head with fangs and chelicerae. This is rather noticeable as in One Piece, spiders who have previously appeared, is drawn in a more realistic manner. |
| 227 | * TattooedCrook: When Black Maria drops her kimono to fight seriously, she reveals the kanji 女難 (dangers of women) tattooed on her back, which further emphasizes her sadistic and villainous personality. |
| 228 | * TsuchigumoAndJorogumo: Her Oiran looks, musical talent with stringed instruments and Devil Fruit makes her a deadringer for the [[{{Youkai}} Jorogumo]], though rather than being based on the actual jorogumo spider (golden orb weaver) her Fruit allows her to turn into the more tarantula-like Rosamygale, closer to the Tsuchigumo. |
| 229 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: Maria's fight with [[WouldntHitAGirl Sanji]] left her thinking the Straw Hats are nothing against Kaido and that she'll have an easy time capturing Nico Robin. But when Robin and Brook take over the fight, she finds herself having a tough time even landing a single hit on them and finds that her illusion mist doesn’t even work on them and she starts to become more frustrated at the battle goes on. She does manage to pin Robin for a bit by catching her off guard with her webs and finding out attacking her limbs damages her. But then Robin recovers and uses some moves taught to her by Sabo and Koala, ultimately ending the fight with her new Demonio Fleur move. |
| 230 | * VillainousBreakdown: When Robin reveals her Demonio Fleur move on her, Maria is so utterly taken aback by the new form that Robin is able to grab her before she has a chance to counter again. Maria's left yelling for Robin to let her go and that ''she's'' the one who’s supposed to be helpless before Robin twists her spine and ends the fight. |
| 231 | * VillainousCrush: Instead of going to search for Yamato, Black Maria says that she prefers remaining next to Kaido and sits close to him in a very provocative manner, despite being much younger than him. |
| 232 | * VillainsWantMercy: As Nico Robin is breaking her back, she starts screaming for her to stop. |
| 233 | * WallCrawl: In her hybrid-form, Black Maria's legs let her walk on the walls or the ceiling. She uses this ability to chase after Sanji, and to attack Nico Robin and Brook from multiple directions during her fight with them and to avoid their attacks. |
| 234 | * WouldNotHurtAChild: Even knowing that Momonosuke is Oden's son and intends to overthrow Kaido, she doesn't try to harm him and even treats his injuries. |
| 235 | * WrongContextMagic: In her hybrid form, Black Maria becomes a centaur-like being, with her human torso emerging from a full spider, unlike the humanoid-beast form every hybrid Zoan becomes. [[AllThereInTheManual An SBS section explains]] that this is caused by drugs that Black Maria takes to keep her beauty in her hybrid form. |
| 236 | * XOnAStick: When fighting Robin and Brook, Black Maria uses a flaming [[{{Youkai}} Wanyūdō]] on the end of a pole. The "Youkai" turns out to actually be a Pug SMILE fruit user running on a treadmill at the head of the weapon, generating flames for Black Maria's attacks. |

| 250 | ->''"Give up. I'm the most powerful kind of animal that ever existed!!!"'' |
| 251 | -->--'''Chapter 998''' |
| 252 | |
| 253 | One of the Tobi Roppo and leader of the Armored Division, he's a large Bluespine unicornfish Fish-man with unruly hair who likes to drink and owns a peculiar sword. |
| 254 | |
| 255 | He has eaten the Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Model: Triceratops which allows him to transform into a massive ''Triceratops'' in combat. |
| 256 | |
| 257 | He has a [[PriceOnTheirHead bounty]] of 472,000,000 berries. |
| 258 | ----- |
| 259 | * {{Acrofatic}}: Sasaki might have the most notable girth among the Tobi Roppo, but he's surprisingly agile when he cuts loose. When he decides to pull his HeliCritter trick, his speed actually almost doubles while never loosing an ounce of his body fat. |
| 260 | * TheAlcoholic: Implied, Sasaki seemingly likes parties (where he only wants to drink with Kaido, not the rank and file) and even when he's [[spoiler: hunting Yamato]], Sasaki walks around with a bottle in hand. |
| 261 | * ArtisticLicensePaleontology: Sasaki's ability to fly like a helicopter through his triceratops frill is completely inane and nonsensical biologically speaking. [[LampshadeHanging Franky even comments on its absurdity]], but Sasaki claims that it is just something triceratops can do, without any hint of irony. |
| 262 | * AttackItsWeakPoint: While Sasaki's Triceratops form is very resistant and shrugs off most of Franky's attacks, Franky realizes that his belly isn't as tough as the rest of the body, and wins the fight by piercing Sasaki's belly with a ''Radical Beam''. |
| 263 | * BadassBoast: While fighting Franky, Sasaki turns into a triceratops and charges him, claiming that dinosaurs are the strongest animals to have ever existed. |
| 264 | * BoundAndGagged: A rare villainous example. Sasaki is caught by surprise by Kyoshiro [[spoiler:(actually Denjiro) who chains him to a wall to prevent him from causing any trouble during the raid at Onigashima. However, a rampaging Linlin destroys the tree he's tied to and frees him]]. |
| 265 | * BrutalHonesty: When King asks Sasaki and Who's-Who if they wouldn't have come if they knew the invitation came from him instead of Kaido, Sasaki bluntly confirms his thoughts. |
| 266 | * CoatCape: Wears an admiral jacket-style coat with a flaming motif on his shoulders like a cape, showing off his high position inside the crew. |
| 267 | * CoolChair: Sasaki has a highbacked throne with spikes, a personalized nametag and what appear to be a Japanese torii gate at the top, sitting [[HorseOfADifferentColor on the back of a Rhino-gifter]]. Sasaki likes to lounge in it as his subordinates in the Armored Division do the actual work. |
| 268 | * CoolSword: Sasaki carries with him a katana-like sword whose blade has a unique look, as it is distinctly, vertically (at an angle) segmented, with each section having its own temper line resembling a gunome style. When activated, the blade [[ThisIsADrill spins rapidly]] and allows Sasaki to shred through weapons and his own Armored Division. He refers to it as the "Karakuri Rasento" (Trick Mechanism Screw Sword). |
| 269 | * FangsAreEvil: Sasaki has a mouth full of sharp teeth, with two prominent lower canines jutting out of his mouth which, combined with the horns, make him more Oni-like looking. He keeps his fangs even when transformed into a herbivorous animal. |
| 270 | * FauxAffablyEvil: Though he maintains a casual and friendly demeanor for most of his appearance, Sasaki has zero qualms about [[WouldHurtAChild trying to kill Momonosuke]], gloats about his Armored Division doing all the fighting and creating a heavy advantage for him, and is quick to crush the Gifters when they're swayed by Tama's Kibi Dango. |
| 271 | * HeavilyArmoredMook: Sasaki leads a squad formed by Gifters with SMILES belonging to hard-shelled/skinned animals such as rhinos, scorpions and urchins when he ambushes Shinobu. Said squad also includes a large number of non-Gifter members who carry shields and bazooka's. Fittingly, his Devil Fruit is the Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Model: Triceratops. |
| 272 | * HeliCritter: Sasaki's hybrid form has the bizarre ability to loosen and rapidly spin his frill, allowing him to hover and propel himself forward at extreme speeds. |
| 273 | * HotPaintJob: His cape and pants have a flaming motif, with dark flames on the lower side in contrast with the lighter side, making him appear more aggressive. |
| 274 | * HornAttack: In his triceratops form, Sasaki charges his enemies using his horns, and can make his charges even stronger by spinning his frills to gain speed. It's strong enough to send the Franky Shogun rolling. |
| 275 | * HornsOfVillainy: Wears golden horns that jut from his cap, which morph into a set of black horns when he transforms into a triceratops against Franky, even around the collar, making him look more ferocious and villainous. |
| 276 | * IMeantToDoThat: The first time Sasaki prepares to launch himself at Franky, he accidentally rotates his propeller frill the wrong direction and flies backwards a good ways. He immediately claims with a straight face that [[BlatantLies he was intentionally putting space between him and Franky to set up his attack]], which Franky doesn't believe for a second. |
| 277 | * LightningBruiser: Sasaki's devil fruit makes him the most durable member of the Tobi Roppo, and when he spins his neck frill in hybrid form, he can increase the speed of his charges to incredibly dangerous levels for someone as large as he is. His attack are fast and strong enough to pierce the Franky Shogun. |
| 278 | * MadeOfIron: Sasaki's Triceratops devil fruit makes him extremely tough and Franky has an hard time hurting him, giving the Tobi Roppo an advantage in a battle of endurance. However, Franky notes that Sasaki's belly is much weaker. |
| 279 | * NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: Sasaki is not only the [[https://gokurakism.com/44a/ Japanese name of the card game 44A]] but also calls to mind Jun Sasaki, the creator of many card games. |
| 280 | * NoShirtLongJacket: Sasaki wears a long cape/coat over his shoulders but no actual clothing on his torso. |
| 281 | * PersonalMook: The rhino Gifter in his squad (who has a whole rhino for a lower body complete with head) also pulls double duty by carrying Sasaki's throne on his back. |
| 282 | * RealMenEatMeat: Inverted, an [=SBS=] states that his favourite food is asparagus, in spite of his tough-guy looks and fangs. This is a hint to his ability to become a ''Triceratops'', a herbivorous dinosaur. |
| 283 | * SpinAttack: Sasaki can spin the neckfrill like a propeller to rotate in midair and deliver devastating attacks around himself. This is even paired with his sword, which acts like a drill. |
| 284 | * TheStarscream: While he isn't as openly hostile towards the current Lead Performers as Who's-Who, Sasaki too aims to become an All-Star, even admitting to King that he would have ignored his summon if King hadn't pretended it came from Kaido. |
| 285 | * StoutStrength: Sasaki is one of the toughest members of Kaido's crew and has a visible paunch compared to the others. This is also reflected in his Devil Fruit, which turns him into a triceratops, a very bulky dinosaur able to tank Franky Shogun's attacks. |
| 286 | * TattooedCrook: Has several tattoos on his torso, fitting the role of a ruthless pirate enforcer. The tattoos resemble stylized wings, likely referencing his ability to achieve a kind of flight in his hybrid form. |
| 287 | * TemperCeratops: His Devil Fruit lets Sasaki transform into a Triceratops and he already looks pretty brutal in his human form. |
| 288 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: Sasaki doesn't feel the need to wear a shirt and his torso is left exposed, going with his manly-appearance. |

| 302 | -->--'''Chapter 978''' |
| 303 | |
| 304 | One of the Tobi Roppo, Ulti is a very talkative and childish girl who doesn't back down from a verbal quarrel. Despite this, she cares a lot for her brother Page One and is extremely loyal to Kaido. |
| 305 | |
| 306 | She has eaten the Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Model: Pachycephalosaurus, which allows her to transform into the eponymous dinosaur and attack with very strong headbutts. |
| 307 | |
| 308 | She has a [[PriceOnTheirHead bounty]] of 400,000,000 berries. |
| 309 | ----- |
| 310 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Although Ulti is actually older than Page One, she's much more childish and less mature than him and Page One is perpetually annoyed by her antics, such as being called "Pay-Pay". |
| 311 | * BigSisterInstinct: Ulti threatens to tear Sasaki in half when he trash talks "her Pay-Pay." Luffy wounding Page One provokes a similar reaction and drives her into using her Devil Fruit and Ulti even dares to attack [[spoiler:Big Mom with no hesitation after the latter knocked out her brother]]. |
| 312 | * BlatantLies: [[spoiler:When Ulti regains her senses after being knocked out by Yamato, she claims that Yamato's attack didn't hurt at all right before coughing up blood, which her underlings notice.]] |
| 313 | * BloodFromTheMouth: [[spoiler: After she recovers from Yamato's hit, Ulti claims his attack didn't hurt her at all, only to cough some blood immediately after]]. |
| 314 | * BrotherSisterTeam: Downplayed. Page One and Ulti are siblings who appear to be together most of the time, but only because Ulti constantly follows her brother and they don't show much coordination when fighting. Although they do care for each other. |
| 315 | * BrutalHonesty: She admits to Kaido's face that having to wait for his commands did piss her off. |
| 316 | * CarryABigStick: While she mostly fights with headbutts, Ulti uses a big spiked mace later on [[spoiler:when confronting Yamato again to get even on him, after being knocked out. Combined with her strength she manages to stall Yamato.]] |
| 317 | * ChildLikeVoice: Her voice is rather high-pitched when she's fawning over her little brother, which fits her childish personality, but it often drops down when she gets mad. |
| 318 | * CoolMask: Ulti wears a mouthpiece which apparently doesn't prevent her from babbling and expressing her thoughts. It remains even in her hybrid and pachycephalosaurus form. |
| 319 | * CurbStompBattle: |
| 320 | ** [[spoiler:Ulti quickly wipes the floor with Nami and Usopp in a 2 v 2 along with Page One, brutally beating them down with her repeated headbutts. Though they both are ''much'' stronger compared to the start of the series, they're still no match for two powerful brawler-types in close-quarters]]. |
| 321 | ** When Ulti [[spoiler: faces Big Mom who uses her to test out her new Homie, Hera, and having her, Prometheus and Napoleon pull a combination attack that ''strikes through Ulti's stomach''. Surprisingly enough this doesn't kill Ulti, but weakens her enough for Nami to finally knock out when she faces her one more time.]] |
| 322 | * CuteBruiser: Despite her somewhat dainty appearance, she's a brawler much like the vast majority of Kaido's crew, and one of the strongest of the crew. When she becomes a full Pachycephalosaurus, however, she loses her cute appearance. |
| 323 | * CuteMonsterGirl: In her hybrid form, Ulti grows a larger head, reptilian hands and legs and a tail, but keeps her cute face and hourglass body, remaining still attractive. |
| 324 | * DarkActionGirl: She's among the strongest subordinates of Kaido, and is a very rude and unpleasant girl. Her fighting style's very aggressive, consisting of mostly headbutting her opponent. She's strong enough that Luffy considers using Gear Four when she pins him down. |
| 325 | * DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: After being forced to wait, Ulti calls Kaido "stupid" out loud for calling them for what she considers just a family issue and the other five tell her not to say such things. Shortly after, she complains about the wait she had to endure and says she thinks his request is stupid ''right in Kaido's face''. Thankfully for her, Kaido is not angered or offended. When [[spoiler:Linlin beats Page One into a pulp, a fearless Ulti challenges her but that encounter doesn't end as well]]. |
| 326 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: While Ulti's an unpleseant person who works for a tyrannical pirate crew and has no trouble beating innocent animals or children, she does genuinely love her brother, Page One, albeith in her rude and childish way, and attacks anyone who hurts him. |
| 327 | * EvilIsPetty: Aside of working for a tyrannical pirate crew, Ulti's generally a very rude and unpleasant jerk, never missing a chance to bark at others and insult them; even her brother Page One and ''Kaido himself'' don't escape her pettiness, and they're probably the only people she has even the slightest degree of concern or respect for. She also has no code of honor and WouldHurtAChild without hesitation, which is [[CloseToHome what drives the usually cowardly Nami to attack her outright]] rather than run. |
| 328 | * FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: She's the foolish sibling to Page One's responsible. Ulti, especially when around her brother, acts like a spoiled kid in constant need of attention, while Page One focuses more on the request given by Kaido. |
| 329 | * ForeheadOfDoom: In her hybrid form, being half-''Pachycephalosaurus'', Ulti's forehead becomes larger and more prominent, allowing her to give stronger headbutts. |
| 330 | * HairTriggerTemper: In her debut, she's talking and bickering with her teammates and exchanging insults with Page One, much to the irritation of the others (except Black Maria, who finds her behaviour endearing), because she can't stand the waiting for Kaido's orders. |
| 331 | * HeadButtingPachy: Her Zoan powers allow her to turn into a ''Pachycephalosaurus'', and she attacks with extremely powerful headbutts. |
| 332 | * IdiotHair: She has a lock of hair protruding from the top of her head to highlight her impulsive and eccentric personality. |
| 333 | * ItsPersonal: While looking for Yamato, Ulti encounters Luffy and fights him, [[spoiler:but Yamato knocks out Ulti with a mace swing. After she recovers, Ulti searches for Yamato to get even with him, and fights him using the same weapon. Likewise after Page One and she initially manage to beat Nami and Usopp, she gets pissed when Nami refuses to take back her claim that Luffy will be the Pirate King and has it out for the two, as well as Tama who blindsided Page One and her, since. Focusing solely on trying to kill the three. Even if it means having to face ''Big Mom'' to do it]]. |
| 334 | * KiManipulation: Ulti is capable of using both Armament Haki, to increase the destructive power of her headbutts, and Observation Haki as she can sense both Luffy's Haki and detect [[spoiler:Yamato's]] incoming presence as well. |
| 335 | * LadySwearsALot: In contrast to her feminine appearance, Ulti tends to use a lot of foul language when she's annoyed, which happens to be very frequently. Given her use of formalities, it may fall into SophisticatedAsHell as well. |
| 336 | * LizardFolk: While her humanoid form is a normal Pachycephalosaurus with hair, her hybrid form gives her dinosaur limbs and tail and scales over her body, especially on her forehead, while keeping a humanoid shape and her very feminine body. |
| 337 | * MsFanservice: The animated adaptation places a lot more emphasis on her body and makes her breasts bounce a lot. |
| 338 | * MusclesAreMeaningless: Despite being similar in height and build to Nami, Ulti has SuperStrength even in human form and overpowers Luffy with a headbutt while destroying the surrounding area (though she can't actually hurt him). |
| 339 | * NeverMyFault: After causing Page One to fall down the stairs, she promises him to make Luffy pay for hurting Page One. Luffy comments how it's their own fault if Page One is hurt. |
| 340 | * PerpetualFrowner: Even though her mouth is usually not visible, Ulti almost always has this angry look on her face. She's cheerful only with her brother, Page One. |
| 341 | * PersonalityPowers: Ulti has a tendency to be incredibly brash with people, essentially butting heads with others when talking to them. Thus fitting with her headstrong rude personality, she ate a Devil Fruit that allows her to transform into a dinosaur renowned for having a hard head and headbutting. |
| 342 | * PrettyInMink: She wears a dark cape trimmed with fur which distinguishes her from the other more masculine (except Black Maria) Tobi Roppo. |
| 343 | * RedOniBlueOni: She's the red to Page One's blue. The two are the Tobi Roppo who interact the most with each other. Ulti is very aggressive, while Page One is more introverted and calm. |
| 344 | * StrongerSibling: Ulti and Page One are, apparently, siblings and the former has a better battle performance against Luffy than the latter. Ulti shows to use both Armament and Observation Haki, while Page One doesn't and [[spoiler:is taken down after her sibling, despite taking similar attacks]]. |
| 345 | * TorsoWithAView: [[spoiler:She is shot right through the abdomen by Big Mom's Maser Cannon. Ulti survives it, but is weakened enough to finally be knocked out by Nami in their final encounter.]] |
| 346 | * TrueBlueFemininity: Subverted. While her blue hair and cape mark her as, visually, the most feminine looking Tobi Roppo, personality-wise Ulti is harsh, rude and aggressive, the opposite of what a lady in blue would normally be. |
| 347 | * {{Tsundere}}: Ulti is very aggressive towards anyone who slightly annoys her, even Kaido when she's in a bad mood, but is very nice to Page One, who she affectionately calls Pay-Pay, much to his annoyance, and her boss Kaido for the most. |
| 348 | * UnskilledButStrong: Similar to her brother, Ulti isn't one for tactics or strategy. She gets by on her toughness granted by her Devil Fruit and brute forcing through everything, no matter how much damage she endures. [[spoiler: This leads to her defeat by Nami as all the damage Ulti accumulates eventually catches up to her. Especially after taking a serious blow to the stomach from Big Mom and not considering falling back to recuperate in her drive to kill Usopp, Nami, and Tama.]] |
| 349 | * UseYourHead: Given her ability to turn into a ''Pachycephalosaurus'', Ulti primarily uses headbutting attacks, which are strong enough to hurt even Luffy, who is normally immune to blunt damage. |
| 350 | * VerbalTic: She ends her sentences with "dearinsu", a very formal way to say "to be", which Page One finds annoying. |
| 351 | * VillainRespect: After she first tries to headbutt Luffy, she proclaims that he's indeed strong and that she can't take him lightly. |
| 352 | * WomanChild: Ulti acts sophisticated one second, the next she's yelling or being dangerously blunt. While [[spoiler:they're supposed to be looking for Yamato]], Ulti follows Page One despite his protests, but can't keep up with him, at which point she jumps onto his back because carrying her would be the "appropriate" thing for Page One to do. |
| 353 | * TheWorfEffect: Ulti manages to clash with Luffy on equal footing ''and'' pin him down in his base form, forcing him to consider using [[NextTierPowerUp Gear Four]] on her and proving she's a legitimate threat. However, shortly after, she's knocked down with one hit by [[spoiler:Yamato]]. During the Onigashima War, Ulti tanks a myriad of attacks, getting up every time, but is taken out for good by[[spoiler: Nami's updated Clima-Takt, showing how stronger she has become with Zeus' aid]]. |
| 354 | * WouldHurtAChild: Ulti has no problem slashing Tama's cheek when the latter asks her to spare Komachiyo. Nami and [[EvenEvilHasStandards Big Mom]], on the other hand, show outrage upon witnessing this. |
| 355 | * WoundedGazelleGambit: When captured by Usopp's Green Star Devil, Ulti calls Page One to help her. While cutting the plant's stem, Page One comments that she could've easily gotten free by herself. |

| 367 | |
| 368 | One of the Tobi Roppo, Page One is [[ThoseTwoGuys often seen]] (reluctantly) with his sister Ulti, being the beleaguered StraightMan of the two. Around his fellow Tobi Roppo he has a meek, reserved disposition, but can quickly turn ruthless and brutal while on missions. |
| 369 | |
| 370 | Page One has eaten the Dragon-Dragon Fruit (''Ryu Ryu no Mi''), Model: Spinosaurus, an Ancient Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows him to transform into a Spinosaurus. |
| 371 | |
| 372 | He has a [[PriceOnTheirHead bounty]] of 290,000,000 berries. |
| 373 | ---- |
| 374 | * EightiesHair: Page One sports lengthy mane with an undercut that he sweeps to the side. |
| 375 | * AdaptationExpansion: The outcome of Page One's duel with Sanji is left unclear in the manga. The anime depicts Sanji's last attack and reveals Page One withstood it. |
| 376 | * AffectionateNickname: Ulti calls him Pay-Pay, despite Page One's irritation whenever he hears it. Sasaki uses it mockingly. |
| 377 | * AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: While Page One is about the same size of a normal human, his ''Spinosaurus'' form is tall enough to rest its arms along the roof-arch of a building. |
| 378 | * AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: While Page One is always annoyed by Ulti's antics and attention, when she [[spoiler:gets knocked out by Yamato, Page One remains with her until he's certain she's fine. The moment he sees that she's fine, he ditches her to follow Luffy and Yamato]]. |
| 379 | * BrotherSisterTeam: Downplayed. Page One and Ulti are siblings who appear to be together most of the time, but only because Page One is constantly followed by his sister and they don't show much coordination when fighting. Although they do care for each other. |
| 380 | * CharacterizationMarchesOn: During his first appearance, he doesn't act differently than a fairly standard thug. In his second appearance, at Onigashima, he's fleshed out into the team StraightMan exasperated at his sister's antics and is much more shy, albeit could be justified by being with Ulti. |
| 381 | * CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Page One is usually the first to grumble about Ulti's antics. Not that he seems all that happy about it, or that he sometimes has ''a say'' in the matter; Ulti tends to latch onto him, even forcing him to give her a piggyback ride [[spoiler:while searching for Kaido's son]]. |
| 382 | * CoolMask: Played with. In his debut, Page One is confident and doesn't wear any mask, but when meeting with the other Tobi Roppo, Page One is in his human form and wearing a mask, but his body language communicates a much more introverted personality. When he transforms into a ''Spinosaurus'', his mask disappears as he needs his mouth free to bite his enemy. |
| 383 | * EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: Between his first and second appearance, new evidence spawned regarding the Spinosarus indicating it had a tail fins and was presumably able to swim very well. Since then, Page One's Spinosaurus form has a tail fin to match the new discoveries in 2020. Oda himself admits in the SBS to have followed the new discovery. |
| 384 | * EatingTheEnemy: As his battle with Sanji shows, Page One isn't afraid to use his gigantic maws to chomp at the enemy when transformed into a ''Spinosaurus''. |
| 385 | * FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: He's the responsible sibling to Ulti's foolish. His sister, especially when around him, acts like a spoiled kid in constant need of attention, while Page One focuses more on the request given by Kaido. |
| 386 | * {{Irony}}: Page One turns into a dinosaur adapted to an aquatic environment when he can't swim at all due to his Devil Fruit. |
| 387 | * KickTheDog: He seems to really hate dogs, thus he's especially pissed at Komachiyo interfering the crew and he attacks it viciously. |
| 388 | * LizardFolk: His hybrid form sacrifices his mandibles for bigger, stronger arms which gives him the appearance of a large lizard-man. |
| 389 | * MoralityPet: Ulti is rude towards anyone, including her own captain, Kaido; the only exception is her brother, Page One, wih whom she's exaggeratedly nice, and he's the only person Uti shows genuine concern for. |
| 390 | * NeckSnap: [[spoiler:Linlin punches Page One with such strength to break his neck even if he's in his full-dinosaur form, knocking him out of the battle in a second. He survives, but is in no shape to fight afterwards]]. |
| 391 | * PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: He's one of the Zoan users whose voice change drastically upon transformation. Due to the fact that his tough-looking beast and human-beast forms are introduced before his human form, he's introduced with a very raspy voice. Once he makes his appearance in human form, his voice is much more smoother and a bit higher to match his meek appearance. |
| 392 | * RedOniBlueOni: He is the blue to Ulti's red. The two are the Tobi Roppo who interact the most with each other. Ulti is very aggressive, while Page One is more introverted and calm. |
| 393 | * SavageSpinosaurs: His Zoan Devil Fruit allows him to transform into a Spinosaurus which he presents as quite ferocious and formidable. |
| 394 | * ShownTheirWork: Starting from his second appearance, his dinosaur form now sports tail fins, reflecting new 2020 ''Spinosaurus'' fossil findings indicating it had a paddle-like tail. |
| 395 | * TattooedCrook: His name is tattooed across his chest (spelt as Page 1), and is also visible even in his dinosaur form. He is also morally bankrupt, even for a pirate. |
| 396 | * UnskilledButStrong: While he is indeed very strong, as he tanks kicks from Sanji and sends him flying across several buildings with a single swing of his arm, Page One's methods and arrogance paint him as a brute with no finesse, focus or tactics whatsoever, content to simply tanking attacks instead of evading or blocking. When the rest of the Tobi Roppo are introduced later, he is notable for being the only member not to use some kind of specialized weapon or fighting style in combat. |
| 397 | * VillainousGlutton: During his rampage against the soba stands, Page One is gorging on soba noodles, and at one point claims to want some fruit to snack on, which means destroying a fruit shop in the process. Even when Sanji prepares to use his Raid Suit, he openly asks if it's canned food. |
| 398 | * TheWorfEffect: Page One is introduced as one of the six strongest members of the Beast Pirates just outside of Kaido's actual right-hand men, but in his introduction he gets beaten around by Sanji to show off the power of [[NextTierPowerUp his raid suit]]. |

| 401 | !!!Prison Mines Staff |
| 402 | |
| 403 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 404 | Some Headliners, working directly under Queen, handle the prison mines of the Udon region, in which those who tried to rebel against Orochi or showed sympathy for Oden are forced to do heavy works in exchange of a small amount of food. |
| 405 | ---- |
| 406 | * AnArmAndALeg: Their favorite way to punish the prisoners who try to rebel is to chop off their limbs. The legs for the first time, then the arms if they rebel again and, if they still try to oppose them, the warden would cut the head. |
| 407 | * BondVillainStupidity: After they imprisoned Kawamatsu, instead of quickly killing him, they were ordered to give him a slow and cruel death by feeding him poisoned fish. However, Kawamatsu resisted for thirteen years (spitting the fish bones as weapons against the guards) until he's freed. |
| 408 | * WardensAreEvil: They might not torture the prisoners like the guards of Impel Down, but in this case said prisoners aren't vicious criminals who deserves it. These wardens enjoy making the prisoners work into the toughest conditions, breaking them both physically and mentally, while giving a single small kimidango as reward for moving a large heavy rock, all while clearly enjoy torturing them. The punishment for offenses is first dismembering the arms, after a second offense the legs, and execution after a third offense. |

| 417 | |
| 418 | A Headliner and the Warden of the Prison Mines in the Udon region of the Wano Country, albeit under the direct orders of Queen. He has eaten an elephant [=SMILE=], which manifests as an elephant head in his chest that has explosive sneezes. |
| 419 | |
| 420 | Just like the other wardens, Babanuki is a cruel man who enjoys inflicting pain on the prisoners. |
| 421 | |
| 422 | ---- |
| 423 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Babanuki has red skin, making him more similar to an Oni, while[[AmazingTechnicolorWildlife his elephant is yellow-skinned]], indicating he comes from the power of an artificial Devil Fruit. |
| 424 | * BeardOfEvil: Has a long beard and is an evil warden working under Kaido. It's also a ManlyFacialHair since he's the strongest headliner of the prison. |
| 425 | * BellyMouth: Exaggerated, he has an elephant head in his belly, which can shoot objects from its trunk. |
| 426 | * CruelElephant: He's an evil warden of the Prison Mines and has eaten an elephant SMILE which gives him some elephant traits. |
| 427 | * EarlyBirdCameo: Before his proper debut, he appears in the background while Daifugo punishes Hyogoro, [[LargeAndInCharge not that he's hard to miss]]. |
| 428 | * FingerInABarrel: He's defeated when Luffy knots his trunk just as he's about to fire a plague bomb, making it explode inside Babanuki. |
| 429 | * LargeAndInCharge: Although possibly justified by having eaten a SMILE that turns him into an elephant hybrid, he's the warden of the Prison Mines and he's arguably as large as an actual elephant. |
| 430 | * {{Oni}}: Babanuki is red-skinned and his face has the same eyebrows, eyes and fangs as an oni, making him look like one. Just like onis are known for living in the mountains, the prison mines are close to tall mountains. |
| 431 | * PoisonedWeapons: Like the rest of the prison staff, he has access to Queen's plague weaponry. In his case, Babanuki uses a heavy shell that is far more powerful than the normal bullets used by his colleagues and shoot it through his elephant's trunk. |
| 432 | * RankScalesWithAsskicking: Being the warden of the prison, he obviously has more authority than anyone else except for the Lead Performers. He also happens to be the first SMILE user that actually causes damage to Luffy, albeit weakened by sea stone, and isn't defeated in seconds. |
| 433 | * SignatureLaugh: "Pao pao pa pa pa pa!!". "Pao" is the Japanese onomopatoeia for an elephant trumpeting. |
| 434 | * SmarterThanYouLook: While he looks just as thuggish as the others, he is actually quite reasonable when it comes to situations, such as warning Queen to not fight Big Mom or trying to bring Luffy's freedom to Queen's attention. His first reaction to seeing all the intruders before him is to try and contact Kaido as quick as possible instead of assuming he can handle it on his own. |
| 435 | * SneezeOfDoom: The elephant on his chest can make an explosive sneeze powerful enough to damage Luffy, albeit the latter isn't in his best conditions. He can also load it with poison shells for extra lethality. |
| 436 | * TopHeavyGuy: His body is large enough to make the elephant head on the chest look small by comparison, while his legs... not so much. |

| 441 | !!!'''Voiced by:''' Toru Nakane (JP), Creator/JoshMartin (EN) |

| 443 | [[quoteright:340:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/daifugo_anime_concept_art_2.png]] |
| 444 | |
| 445 | One of the Headliners and a Vice Warden of the Prison Mines. He has eaten a scorpion [=SMILE=], granting him extra legs and a scorpion stinger for hair. In combat he uses a pair of guns loaded with Queen's plague virus. |
| 446 | |
| 447 | ---- |
| 448 | * AxCrazy: After Luffy beats him and, eventually, breaks out of his Seastone cuffs, he gleefully starts murdering prisoners completely at random with plague-filled bullets. |
| 449 | * BewareMyStingerTail: Thanks to his scorpion SMILE, he has a scorpion stinger, although it's located on his braid. |
| 450 | * DirtyCoward: Daifugo abuses his Vice Warden status to mistreat prisoners and fights from a distance with plague-filled bullets. When he's cornered by the revolting inmates he still tries to ineffectually threaten them with his status, but is visibly trembling and sweating before they beat him up. |
| 451 | * {{Expy}}: The helmet he wears and his clothing style make him appear as a scorpion version of [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Jagi]]. He even fights with guns just like Jagi. |
| 452 | * GunsAkimbo: When it comes time to put the prisoners in line he uses a pair of pistols loaded with Queen's special plague bullets on them. |
| 453 | * HeelFaceBrainwashing: Daifugo eats one of Tama's dango, which makes SMILE users loyal to her. Since then, Daifugo has become much nicer. [[spoiler:The effects will last only one month and it is up in the air if he will remain nice or revert to his previous personality]]. |
| 454 | * HellBentForLeather: Daifugo wears a pair of six-legged leather pants and a leather jacket and in he's the most heinous out of all the wardens. He's often shown beating up the prisoners and abusing of his status. |
| 455 | * KickTheDog: Daifugo debuts by kicking to the ground a weak old man, showing immediately that he's an evil warden who mistreats the prisoners. |
| 456 | * LaserGuidedKarma: Daifugu constantly beats up prisoners. During the revolt, he also uses the Excitement Bullets on them to stop Luffy and his allies, breaking the prisoners' spirits. After Luffy motivates the prisoners however, they proceed to beat the crap out of Daifugo, who can only brag of his now useless status as Vice Warden before being beaten by the very same person he used to punish. |
| 457 | * OrnamentalWeapon: Has a sword on his back, but is never shown drawing it. When he actually gets aggressive he instead uses guns. The anime shows Daifugo trying to use it on Luffy briefly. |
| 458 | * PoisonedWeapons: Gleefully demonstrates Queen's special plague bullets on prisoners, very fitting for a scorpion man. |
| 459 | * ReformedButRejected: Justified, [[spoiler: after being turned around by eating Tama's dango, Daifugu isn't greeted warmly by the former inmates of the prison mines when they meet him in Onigashima. Considering that Daifugu used to be a monster to the inmates of the Prison mines, frequently abusing them and shooting at them with bullets that turned them into plague carriers, and they only have his word for turning over a new leaf, hardly anyone believes him]]. |
| 460 | * ScaryScorpions: He has eaten a scorpion SMILE, which gives him a stinger at the end of his braid and multiple legs, and he's an evil warden. |
| 461 | * TheSociopath: Daifugo is a very dangerous individual who constantly abuses prisoners and during a revolt he gleefully infects them with a deadly disease. Despite losing badly to Luffy, he doesn't learn his lesson and keeps fighting him, and, when it's clear Udon prison is lost, [[TooDumbToLive somehow thinks he can get out of trouble by bragging about his status]]. |
| 462 | * TechnicolorToxin: Daifugo's main color in his palette is purple, coming from his hair and his leather clothes, which reflects his poison theme from his scorpion SMILE and his guns loaded with plague bullets. |
| 463 | * UnderestimatingBadassery: He thinks that he can defeat Luffy easily if Queen would let him go into the ring even though Luffy beat him earlier. It's a surprise attack, except Luffy is also weakened by seastone at the time and still almost knocks Daifugo out with a single attack. |
| 464 | * VertebrateWithExtraLimbs: Justified by being a human who has eaten a scorpion SMILE, which gives him two extra pairs of legs just like scorpions. |

| 475 | |
| 476 | ---- |
| 477 | * AdaptationExpansion: In the manga she only stands around and barks orders. In the anime, she also takes an active role and faces Raizo, showing off a powerful SpinAttack. Solitaire also chatters and screeches like a monkey when excited. |

| 482 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: She's the only female warden of the Prison Mines. |
| 483 | * StealthPun: Like many of the Animal Kingdom Pirates, she's named after a card game; in this case, solitaire. Factor in her eight limbs, and she's ''spider'' solitaire, as well as a spider-monkey. |

| 491 | |
| 492 | One of the Headliners and a Vice Warden of the prison mines in Udon. He ate a hippo SMILE, making his main body sit inside a hippo's mouth. |
| 493 | |
| 494 | He attempts to stop Luffy and Kidd from quarreling showing off his authority but, after he tries to eat them, they beat him up. |
| 495 | |
| 496 | ---- |
| 497 | * AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: Dobon's hippo is pink, making him even more goofy and less threatening. |
| 498 | * AngryAngryHippos: Subverted. While Dobon is a brutal Vice Warden of Kaido's prisons who has eaten hippo SMILE, the hippo that forms his lower body is very docile and innocuous (except to Dobon himself). |
| 499 | * AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: Dobon's face is very similar to that of the hippo, the kind of SMILE he ate. |
| 500 | * BigEater: Or so he claims to be. His beef with Luffy and Kid earning so many dango is that they've run the storage empty, leaving him with virtually nothing. |
| 501 | * BlessedWithSuck: The hippo that Dobon's body has fused into due to the SMILE he ate has a mind of its own, often closing its mouth while Dobon is still talking, which prevents others from hearing him. |
| 502 | * BodyHorror: His main body is comically ''inside'' of a giant hippo's mouth. And the mouth closes on him without any provocation. |
| 503 | * TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Almost literally. This happens when he swallows Luffy and Kidd with his hippo's mouth, which his subordinates refer to as his "murder chamber". The two then beat the crap out of him instead. |
| 504 | * WaddlingHead: The hippo his body is fused to resembles this. Its midsection doesn't exist and its "body" is just the hippo's hindquarters and a stubby pair of hind legs, leaving its head to take up most of its mass. Its "front legs" are Dobon's own legs that protrude from its chin. |
| 505 | * WorfEffect: His attempt to bring the hammer down on Luffy and Kidd only serves to show how dangerous they've become, even when wearing Seastone. |

| 516 | |
| 517 | The sadistic Headliner who has eaten a ram SMILE, which grants him the ability to transform his hands into large ram horns. |
| 518 | ---- |
| 519 | * BlessedWithSuck: Subverted, unlike other Headliners who are SMILE users, he is able to control his transformation and retain his human form without severe permanent changes to his body. |
| 520 | * TheDragon: He serves as Jack's lieutenant during his mission to Zou. |
| 521 | * EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Sheepshead is the first SMILE user to appear in the series and his ability to turn his hands into ram horns is considered bizarre by Brook, since a Zoan users (except Chopper) can only turn into an hybrid or full form, foreshadowing the SMILE's artificial nature. The ability to turn body parts into animal parts at will disappears later in the series and later SMILE users have permanent animal body parts for a more comedic purpose. |
| 522 | * HornAttack: An odd example in that his horns actually come from his arms, not his head, due to [=SMILEs=] often manifesting on parts of the body that do not correspond with their placement on the original animal. |
| 523 | * HornsOfVillainy: Like all Gifters, a pair of black horns sprout from his head, but this also applies to his powers which cause his hands to turn into large ram horns. |
| 524 | * MeaningfulName: He's named after the game Sheepshead and, appropriately enough, has eaten a ram SMILE. |
| 525 | * UncertainDoom: Sheepshead's fate after Zunesha sinks the fleet he is a part of is unknown, but likely not good since he's a Devil Fruit user and because of the fact Jack has appeared again and Sheepshead hasn't. |

| 537 | -->--'''Holdem to Kamjiro''' (chapter 915) |
| 538 | |
| 539 | A Headliner who seems to be in charge of Bakura Town in the Kuri region of Wano Country, Holdem has eaten a lion SMILE, which manifests in the form of a lion's head and arms, called Kamijiro, that protrude from his stomach, though he seems to have a tenuous relationship with it. |
| 540 | |
| 541 | ---- |
| 542 | * AdaptationalBadass: In the manga he just tortures a child with pliers and goes down in one Red Hawk without ever showing what's so special about his sword. The anime shows how his blade is special and adds a filler scene of him taking down some bandits with ease before [[VillainousValor fighting Shutenmaru himself]], [[AdaptationInducedPlotHole even if the latter is as strong as Jack]], and holding up despite being injured, before using his fire blade to cause a wildfire that quickly spreads. |
| 543 | * AdaptationExpansion: In the manga he claims his sword had the power to "chase", though he was defeated before he could show what that means. The anime shows that this "power" is nothing more then his blade being able to turn into a WhipSword. |
| 544 | * AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: His name is Holdem, from the card game "Texas Holdem", and Kamjiro's mane resembles a poker chip. |
| 545 | * BlessedWithSuck: Like all SMILE users, his body manifests traits of an animal, in his case a lion, which can be effective in battle. However, the lion head created by his power has a mind of its own and doesn't seem to get along with Holdem at all. |
| 546 | * BreathWeapon: Kamijiro, the lion in his belly, can breathe fire. |
| 547 | * CoolSword: He wields a distinctive katana called the Karakuri sword with a ring pattern along the sheath and a star-shaped guard. The anime shows that it can also function as a WhipSword that can even be lit on fire with no damage to itself. |
| 548 | * CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler:He earns Luffy's rage by telling him that he has tortured Tama and goes down in ''one hit'' from Luffy's Red Hawk without even realizing what just happened.]] |
| 549 | * FieryLion: He has a living lion head on his stomach that is capable of breathing fire. Anime takes it up even further by having him light his sword on fire. |
| 550 | * GroinAttack: When pissed, Kamjiro shows no remorse in attacking Holdem's crotch. However, he forgets that, sharing Holdem's body, he feels the pain too. |
| 551 | * LargeAndInCharge: Holdem is both tall and wide, and is one of Kaido's Headliners, meaning he has authority over the mooks. |
| 552 | * StoutStrength: Holdem seems quite overweight, but he's also one of Kaido's Headliners, who are among his strongest minions. Averted as he ends up being really weak. |
| 553 | * TattooedCrook: Holdem has tattoos with pointy shapes on his shoulders and arms, making his appearance more villainous. |
| 554 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: He wears nothing on the upper side of his body, probably justified by Kamjiro's head which prevents him wearing anything. |
| 555 | * WouldHurtAChild: Since Tama refuses to show off her power, Holdem decides to force her by pinching her cheeks with a pair of pliers. Luffy is not amused to learn of this. |

| 565 | |
| 566 | ---- |
| 567 | * AdaptationExpansion: In the manga she doesn't show her fighting abilities, while the anime shows her launching volleys of arrows and using Armament Haki as well. |
| 568 | * ArtisticLicenseBiology: Horses [[ShownTheirWork really have a 350 degree line of sight]], but that's because of their eyes which are on the sides of the head. If you have frontal eyes, half-horse or not, you can't have a 350 degree sight. |
| 569 | * DudeMagnet: Several other Gifters find Speed very attractive. When Speed [[spoiler:arrives at Onigashima, many men ogle her, and she uses her beauty to convince the Gifters to eat Tama's dango]]. |
| 570 | * DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: When Luffy first grabs her, thinking she's an ordinary horse, Speed is swooned by the "embrace" briefly before recognizing what is going on. |
| 571 | * HeelFaceBrainwashing: Because of her SMILE condition, Speed is susceptible to Tama's Devil Fruit powers and becomes loyal to her after eating her dango. [[spoiler:The effect is long-lasting, and Speed is still following Tama a week later. According to Tama, her Devil Fruit only tames animals for a month, upon which they can then choose to remain tamed or return to their original state. Speed makes clear however she fully intends on remaining tamed, with Tama asking her not to remain her partner, but become her [[ParentalSubstitute mother]].]] |

| 573 | * NavelDeepNeckline: Wears a shirt with the zipper open all the way down to her navel. |
| 574 | * NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: After helping Tama and Luffy bring all the food to the starved Wano inhabitants, Speed brings Tama back to Amigasa Village, and accidentally run into a drunken, rampaging Kaido, who beats both of them. |
| 575 | * NotSoStoic: While serious on the job and easily annoyed by others goofing around, Speed can be cheerful when praised and seems to enjoy going into depth about her powers to those around her. |
| 576 | * OurCentaursAreDifferent: Resembles a centaur thanks to her Horse SMILE fruit, and is "part horse" enough to be tamed by Tama's ability. |
| 577 | * SuperSenses: In her debut, Speed claims to have a 350 degree line of sight, like real horses. |
| 578 | * {{Tsundere}}: She's bashful when complimented at one point and angry at "idiocy" another. |

| 600 | * NotQuiteFlight: As a flying squirrel SMILE user, she is capable of controlled descent, but most likely cannot "fly" in a true sense. |
| 601 | * PaperTalisman: While the massive paper tag on her face initially looks like a fancy mask and nothing more, it allows her to spy on the movements of Luffy through a cat wearing an identical paper mask, which is later revealed to be the ability of Marys. |
| 602 | * PersonalMook: Bao Huang's role in the crew is closer to that of a secretary. |
| 603 | * ScrewballSquirrel: Inverted. Despite having eaten a flying squirrel SMILE, Bao Huang is very tidy and handles Kaido's schedule, making her personality the opposite of what is stereotypically associated with squirrels. |

| 621 | * HornsOfVillainy: Ginrummy wears a pair of (presumably fake) horns to show her status as a member of the Animal Kingdom Pirates. |
| 622 | * {{Stripperiffic}}: Out of all the Animal Kingdom Pirates seen so far, who don't seem to wear much altogether, she's dressed in the least with only an armored bikini and thong. She could even give Rebecca a run for her money in terms of how little she wears. |
| 623 | * UncertainDoom: Her fate after Zunesha sinks the fleet she's a part of is unknown, but likely not good, being a Devil Fruit user, and all. The fact Jack is seen again in Wano while she hasn't appeared since the fleet sank implies she's dead. |

| 724 | Among the stronger warriors of the Animal Kingdom Pirates. They are the powerful 10% that were fortunate enough to eat nonfaulty [=SMILEs=] and be granted the ability to partially transform into animals. While not as strong as the Headliners, their [=SMILEs=] make them stronger than a powerless member. |
| 725 | ---- |
| 726 | * AnimalThemedSuperbeing: Parodied. Every one of them has eaten a SMILE that gives them a Zoan power but, since SMILE are imitation Devil Fruits, most of them give the Gifter a goofy appearance, like a rooster instead of the hair. All [=SMILE=] fruits are made using the lineage factor of an existing animal, which is why only non-mythical Zoans exist. |
| 727 | * BlessedWithSuck: While they all gain useful powers in one way or another, many of them become horrifically or hilariously deformed by the various animal parts manifesting in seemingly random and unpredictable ways on their bodies. |
| 728 | * BodyHorror: Gifters of the crew have random animal body parts sprouting from certain parts of their bodies or just outright merged into them in general, making them look like incomplete Zoans. |
| 729 | * CuteMonsterGirl: Most female gifters are less goofy than the male ones and keep most of their attractive features, making them beautiful women with animal features. |
| 730 | * EliteMooks: They are quite stronger than Pleasures and Waiters, giving some trouble to the Minks in Zou. Against named characters, they tend to lean more towards mere grunts, however. |
| 731 | * HornsOfVillainy: They wear a pair of black horns on their heads. |
| 732 | * QuantityVsQuality: Due to their SMILE's being artificial copies of actual Devil Fruits, their powers aren't as strong as actual Devil Fruits, and Gifters in general aren't skilled fighters on the level of most New World pirates. But there ''are'' hundreds of them, the artificial fruits are comparatively easy to obtain (well, until Caesar and Doflamingo's downfall), and a mook with a minor superpower is still better than a powerless one. |
| 733 | * ThemedAliases: All Gifters seem to go by code names based on what [=SMILE=] fruit they ate as oppose to their real names. |
| 734 | * SuperpoweredMooks: They are an army of SMILE users which make them stronger than the average mook, but still not strong enough to be a threat to the Straw Hats. |

| 745 | |
| 746 | A Gifter who ate a bat [=SMILE=], giving him wings to fly and enhanced hearing like an actual bat. |
| 747 | ---- |
| 748 | * AdaptationalBadass: In the manga, he simply snipes at the heroes from afar with arrows. In the anime not only can he apparently manipulate the volleys of arrows with sound waves to make them home in on enemies, but he also resists a Haki-infused punch by ''Luffy'' and repels him with a blast of sound waves. This makes him a bit cocky come next encounter when he fights Luffy again in the prison as part of Queen's sumo match. By this point Luffy's learning how to "throw" his Armament Haki and hits him with the same attack, which this time knocks him right out. |
| 749 | * FatBastard: He's an overweight pirate working under Kaido and enforcing the oppressive regime in Wano. |
| 750 | * ShoutOutThemeNaming: He's named {{Franchise/Batman}}, with the SMILE fruit powers of... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a bat]]. |
| 751 | * SuperSenses: Thanks to having bat ears his hearing is six times greater than a normal human's, letting him eavesdrop on people from large distances. |
| 752 | * VertebrateWithExtraLimbs: His bat wings don't grow on his arms, but become a third pair of limbs. |
| 753 | * WingedHumanoid: Has a pair of bat wings that grow from his butt and are strong enough to allow him to fly, despite being quite fat. |
| 754 | * WouldHitAGirl: If Zoro hadn't intervened, Batman would've hit O-Tsuru with an arrow. |
| 755 | * WritingAroundTrademarks: The Viz translation adds a hyphen between Bat and Man, referring to him as Bat-Man, presumably to avoid attracting the attention of [[Creator/DCComics a certain publishing company]]. |

| 767 | A Gifter who ate a gazelle [=SMILE=], giving him the legs of a gazelle to run at high speeds. |
| 768 | ----- |
| 769 | * BadassBoast: After kidnapping Tama, Gazelleman boasts about his incredible speed, too bad that he can't keep it for long. |
| 770 | * HeelFaceBrainwashing: [[spoiler: Gazelleman reappears during the Onigashima arc as loyal to Tama, which means he has eaten one of Tama's dango, which turn animals and SMILE users obedient. The effects will last only one month and it is up in the air if he will remain nice or revert to his previous personality]]. |
| 771 | * RequiredSecondaryPowers: Averted. He is capable of running at incredible speeds thanks to the SMILE Devil Fruit he ate. Unfortunately, while he's capable of doing so, he doesn't have the physical endurance to match his speed. As a result, he's left wheezing greatly with his sides in pain after running a great distance. |
| 772 | * ShoutOutThemeNaming: He's named [[{{Manga/Kinnikuman}} Gazelleman]], with the SMILE fruit powers of...[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin a gazelle]]. |
| 773 | * StockingFiller: A rare male (and non crossdressing) example. Gazelleman wears a pair of fishnet stocking on his legs. |
| 774 | * SuperSpeed: Gazelles are known for being very fast animals, so his gazelle SMILE has given him the ability to run at high speed. However, he lacks the endurance to keep up his speed for a long distance. |
| 775 | * TopHeavyGuy: The top half of his body is very large, while his legs are as skinny as those of a gazelle. |

| 787 | A Gifter who ate a snake [=SMILE=], giving her fangs and the ability to stretch her neck. She works as a teacher in the Flower Capital, teaching Kurozumi propaganda to the kids. As a member of the Animal Kingdom pirate, she is a subordinate of Black Maria. |
| 788 | ---- |
| 789 | * ChekhovsGunman: Sarahebi is introduced at the beginning of the Wano Arc as a teacher of the Flower Capital who spread Kurozumi propaganda to the younger generation. Multiple chapters later, during the assault at Onigashima, Sarahebi performs the "Naughty Trap" [[spoiler: which captures Sanji, separating him from Luffy and Jimbei and revealing herself as a minion of Black Maria.]] |
| 790 | * FangsAreEvil: She's a member of the Beast Pirates who can literally bare venomous fangs at will. |
| 791 | * MeaningfulName: Sarahebi contains the word "hebi" which means "snake" in Japanese, just like her [=SMILE=] power. |
| 792 | * NightmareFace: She shows off her Devil Fruit powers by stretching her neck and showing snake fangs to admonish her students, though they seem to love it. |
| 793 | * OddNameOut: Her name is neither a nod to a card game nor an animal-based epithet, though it does contain the word "Hebi" (snake) in it. |
| 794 | * PropagandaMachine: She teaches to the children of the Flower Capital... [[WrittenByTheWinners namely, the history of Wano demonizing the Kozuki Clan while making a hero out of Orochi.]] |
| 795 | * SnakePeople: Sarahebi ate a snake [=SMILE=] and she can stretch her neck and make her face more snakelike, like Sheepshead who can transform at will as well. |
| 796 | * WoundedGazelleGambit: [[spoiler: In Kaido's castle, she pretends to be an innocent woman assaulted and disrobed by a man, which results in Sanji falling for her trap and being captured by Black Maria.]] |
| 797 | * {{Youkai}}: Her ability to stretch her neck calls to mind the Rokurokubi. She's even credited as "Rokuro Sensei" in episode 909's credits [[note]] which came out before Oda revealed her name[[/note]]. |

| 805 | |
| 806 | A Gifter who ate an alpca [=SMILE=], allowing him to turn parts of his body into parts of an alpaca. He's a guard in the Prison Mines of the Udon Region. |
| 807 | ---- |
| 808 | * AdaptationalBadass: Downplayed, but the anime has him using Haki to make his spit more dangerous and execute a more complex combo attack with Madilloman against Luffy. |
| 809 | * BlessedWithSuck: Averted. While his SMILE doesn't give him anything impressive beyond being good at spitting, he isn't hampered in any way physically and is capable of fighting without issue. |
| 810 | * DualBoss: Queen sends both him and Madilloman to fight Luffy and Hyogoro during the Great Sumo Inferno Tournament. By contrast, Alpacaman fights using two swords, while Madilloman uses two guns. During the fight, they even use a combined attack. |
| 811 | * DualWielding: When he fights Hyogoro and Luffy, he employs two large sabers. |
| 812 | * HellBentForLeather: He wears a dark leather sleeveless jacket and is an evil warden of a prison. |
| 813 | * LongNeck: The only thing he gets from his SMILE is an alpaca head with a very long neck. |
| 814 | * NoShirtLongJacket: Alpacaman wears nothing under his leather jacket, showing off his ripped body. |
| 815 | * NonHumanHead: The only mutation he got from his SMILE is an alpaca head and neck, giving him an alpaca's SuperSpit, but the rest of his body has remained human. |
| 816 | * SmugSnake: Fully believes he can handle Luffy and enjoys showing off his swordsmanship but is proven wrong by Hyogoro (with Luffy's help). |
| 817 | * SpectacularSpinning: He seems to like spinning his sabers around, these spins aren't just for show, as he uses them to make his attacks more powerful. |
| 818 | * SpinAttack: He can rotate his swords to make many quick attacks in a row. |
| 819 | * SuperSpit: Because of his alpaca SMILE, when he speaks he tends to spit a lot, but can also use it in combat, which he does against Hyogoro. |

| 828 | A Gifter who ate an armadillo [=SMILE=], allowing him to turn parts of his body into parts of an armadillo. |
| 829 | ---- |
| 830 | * AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: His armadillo features are purple, making his overall appearance darker and more evil. |
| 831 | * BaldOfEvil: He is completely bald, which makes him look more armadillo-like, and is a subordinate of Kaido. |
| 832 | * BeardOfEvil: He's an evil pirate and has a large, bushy beard. |
| 833 | * BlessedWithSuck: Averted. He is perhaps one of the luckiest Gifters. He has gained all of his animal's most desirable features (the shell in this case), and suffered little more than the bare minimum deformities. |
| 834 | * CombatPragmatist: Uses a pair of guns loaded with Seastone bullets during his match against Luffy. His crew members call him out for this, saying the match will be over too soon, but he retorts back that it's supposed to be an execution, not a show. It doesn't work out, but he gets points for using his brain. |
| 835 | * GunsAkimbo: Utilizes a pair of guns loaded with Seastone as his weapons. |
| 836 | * RollingAttack: Thanks to his Devil Fruit, he can roll into a ball like real armadillos. When guns fail, he tries to roll over Luffy with this attack. |
| 837 | * SmugSnake: While he's prepared to fight a Devil Fruit user, at least, he still thinks a pair of guns loaded with seastone would be enough to handle Luffy. |
| 838 | * WildWestArmadillo: Madilloman's SMILE gives armadillo features and he dresses himself like a gunslinger. |

| 846 | Colossal members of the Animal Kingdom Pirates, they are a failed attempt by the World Government to replicate Oars' race, the ancient giants. Kaido bought them from Punk Hazard decades ago as they appear at the end of Oden's flashback trying to stop the Akazaya Nine from escape. |
| 847 | ---- |
| 848 | * TheAlcoholic: According to Queen, all of them have a drinking problem, just like their captain. During the feast at Onigashima, one of them asks if he could drink directly from the barrel. |
| 849 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Most of the numbers' skins are of bright and different colors to accentuate the Oni inspiration and emphasize their artificial origin. |
| 850 | * CarryABigStick: Most members wield a huge, metal ''kanabo'' as their weapons of choice, enforcing their Oni looks. |
| 851 | * ChildEater: When they make their first appearance, a boy witnessing their arrival tells his little sister that if they notice the two of them, they'll gobble them up. And given what they look like, it is probably not an immotivated fear... |
| 852 | * TheDreaded: They appear like giant humanoid [[AmbiguouslyHuman creatures]] whom the people of Wano are terrified of. |
| 853 | * DumbMuscle: Among a crew where it values strength over intelligence, the Numbers have this trait exaggerated. They are nothing more than gigantic drunks with clubs, making them among the strongest and most destructive members of the crew. |
| 854 | * TheHyena: Most of their dialogue consists of laughter that plays off their individual names. |
| 855 | * JabbaTableManners: During the feast at Onigashima, one of the Numbers asks why he can't drink saké directly from the barrel during the banquet while Queen complains that's the reason he hates partying with them. |
| 856 | * {{Manchild}}: Their emotional maturity is comparable to that of rowdy children, such as their lack of self-control and playing with the components of the General Franky like toys. |
| 857 | * MonstrousHumanoid: Aside from their huge size, their silhouettes have an unsettling dinosaur-like appearance which is made even more inhuman and scary by their large horns. Some of them are truly monstrous, while others are much more human-looking, only with horns. |
| 858 | * NumericalThemeNaming: They're collectively called the "Numbers" and they're ten gigantic monsters whose names are similar to the Japanese word of a number (from one to ten). |
| 859 | * OddNameOut: The Numbers follow the ThemeNaming of “number + oni” but four of them break this trend, which also underlines they have a major difference from the others. |
| 860 | ** Inbi names is “One +beauty" and he’s quite more human-looking compared to the other goofy and grotesque numbers. |
| 861 | ** Fuga's name is the combination of "Two + Fang" and he’s got a centaur body, while the other numbers are humanoids. |
| 862 | ** Haccha’s name is “Eight + Tea” and, like Indi, he's much more human-looking. |
| 863 | ** Kunyun is the combination of “nine” and the Kanji for "Perseverance/Shinobi" and she’s the only female Number. |
| 864 | * {{Oni}}: Implied that they're actual Onis and they certainly look the part, judging from their silhouettes. If anything, they're even more monstrous and grotesque-looking than Kaido himself. During Oden's flashback, Kawamatsu downright asks "what" are those things upon seeing one of them. According to Big Mom, the Numbers are actually failed recreations of the ancient giants bought by Kaido to be used as combatants. |
| 865 | * OurGiantsAreBigger: They're all huge, similar to Kaijus, and Haccha is noted to be even larger than a standard Giant. Nangi is shown to be even bigger than Jack, who is a huge man in his own right. Big Mom comments that they're a failed attempt at "Ancient Giants", which is the same species of Oars. |
| 866 | * PerpetualSmiler: They always have demented grins painted on their faces. |
| 867 | * PokemonSpeak: They can only laugh and repeat their names |
| 868 | * ScaryTeeth: Except Haccha, all of the Numbers seen so far have a set of pointed teeth, setting them apart from standard giants and making them more monstrous. Some even have boar-like fangs. |
| 869 | * ShoutOut: Being ten huge, horned monsters with fangs and the tendency to go wild and love parties makes them a nod to Sendak's [[Literature/WhereTheWildThingsAre Wild Things]]. |
| 870 | * SignatureLaugh: Each of them has a distinct laugh which is a pun on their respective number (in Japanese). When Queen calls the numbers during his song, they reply with laughter and Queen scolds them because they aren't laughing in numerical order. |
| 871 | ** Inbi's laugh is ''ibibibibibi''. |
| 872 | ** Fuuga's laugh is ''fugagagagagagaga''. |
| 873 | ** Zanki's laugh is ''zakikikikikiki''. |
| 874 | ** Jaki's laugh is ''jakikikikiki''. |
| 875 | ** Goki's laugh is ''gokikiki'' |
| 876 | ** Nangi's laugh is ''nagigigi''. |
| 877 | ** Haccha's laugh is ''hachachacha''. |
| 878 | ** Kunyun's laugh is ''kunyunyu'' |
| 879 | ** Juuki's laugh is ''jukikikikiki''. |
| 880 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: With the exception of Haccha and Inbi, the male Numbers only wear loincloths, making them appear more wild. Rokki wears overalls, but they keep most of his chest bare anyway. |
| 881 | * TheWorfEffect: Despite their imposing size, the Numbers are often taken out with ease whenever they enter a fight, showing how far the Straw Hats have come from needing to team up just to take out Oars. |

| 960 | * LongNeck: Goki has a long neck that, with his mane, gives him a feral look similar to a hyena. |

| 974 | * HeavySleeper: So heavy, infact, that he's still sleeping despite the massive battle and chaos going on in the castle. |
| 975 | * MadeOfIron: [[spoiler: Fuga rams into him at full speed while he's sleeping, crushing him against a metal door with enough strength to slam it open, but he's still tough enough to recover immediately and try to fight back.]] |

| 998 | |
| 999 | Haccha is a giant human-looking Number who fights using a mace. He first appears trying to stop Luffy and Kid but is so drunk he ends up hitting his own allies. |
| 1000 | ---- |
| 1001 | * EightiesHair: His hair is cut like an eighties bob to go with his overall eighties appearance. |
| 1002 | * AlcoholInducedIdiocy: When Haccha steps in to kill Luffy and Kid, he's so drunk he ends up attacking his own allies, and goes into a drunken rampage no one can stop. Even when he's sobered up, Haccha remains stupid and easily distracted. |
| 1003 | * AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: Haccha is the Numbers #8, and his style, down to his clothes and haircut, are typical of the trends of the 80's. |
| 1004 | * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: After being given orders by Apoo to attack the Straw Hats, Haccha is distracted by the shiny General Franky, as if it's a toy, and runs after it, disregarding everything Apoo just said. |
| 1005 | * CasualSportsJersey: In contrast with the crew's leather clothing, Haccha wears a track-suit. |
| 1006 | * CollateralDamage: When he attacks Kid and Luffy, Haccha is so drunk he ends up hitting his own comrades instead, who yell at him to no avail. |
| 1007 | * CoolShades: Wears a pair of googles whose lenses are shaped like an 8, going with his name, which is similar to the Japanese for "eight". |
| 1008 | * GrievousHarmWithABody: He attempts to use the fallen Jaki's body as a weapon to crush the samurai forces, but is distracted at the last second by the Franky Shogun and chases after him instead. |

| 1016 | A female Number who, like Haccha, is more human-looking than the rest of the group, aside from her horns and snake-like fangs. She first appears alongside Black Maria's minions fighting Robin and Brook, where she intially appears to the former as Jaguar D. Saul thanks to the effects of an illusionary gas. |
| 1017 | ---- |
| 1018 | * CuteMonsterGirl: In contrast to most of the other Numbers, who are male and very feral looking, Kunyun remains mostly human-looking. |
| 1019 | * FangsAreEvil: Unlike the packed jaws of several of her fellow Numbers, Kunyun's front fangs are distinctly pointed, resembling those of a venomous snake. It's the only visual clue that she's part of a failed attempt to recreate the ancient giants. |
| 1020 | * TheGogglesDoNothing: She wears a pair of goggles sitting on top of a helmet, which she never uses for any practical purpose. |
| 1021 | * TheSmurfettePrinciple: Kunyun is the only female Number. [[{{Foreshadowing}} Her laughter foreshadows this]] since it is written in hiragana rather than katakana like the others. |
| 1022 | * {{Stripperiffic}}: She doesn't wear much beyond a bikini and shorts. |

| 1034 | * ManiacTongue: To make him even more feral, his tongue is costantly dangling from his open maws. |
| 1035 | * TattooedCrook: Juuki has the old kanji for "ten" on his flank, just like Jaki. |

| 1065 | |
| 1066 | Members of the Animal Kingdom Pirates who are the unfortunate many of Kaido's crew who have eaten faulty [=SMILEs=] and were turned into laughing warriors. Because of this, however, they can trick the enemy into believing they cannot feel pain. |
| 1067 | ----- |
| 1068 | * BlessedWithSuck: Due to eating the faulty [=SMILES=], they not only didn't get any Devil Fruit powers, they are also left unable to swim. |
| 1069 | * GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul: Due to eating the faulty [=SMILES=] they aren't capable of doing anything besides being happy. |
| 1070 | * HellBentForLeather: They're easily identifiable as the mooks of the Animal Kingdom Pirates because of the leather jacket and BSDM-like outfit they wear. When Kin'emon uses his power on the alliance members, they are given similar outfits to disguise them. |
| 1071 | * HornsOfVillainy: They wear a single white horn on their heads to mark their status. |
| 1072 | * MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: [[spoiler:After Queen openly tells them and the Waiters how lowly he views them and states that being turned into Ice Oni would at least make them of use, the two groups openly rebel and pour their support to Chopper after he has cured them]]. |
| 1073 | * {{Mooks}}: Having eaten faulty [=SMILEs=] and thus lacking special powers or abilities, Pleasures are relegated to being regular grunts in the crew much like Waiters. |
| 1074 | * PerpetualSmiler: Pleasures always smile and laugh, even as they're beaten down by the Minks. This is thanks to the adverse effects of having eaten faulty [=SMILEs=] which not only makes them unable to swim but also robs them the ability to express any emotion other than smiling. |
| 1075 | * WeHaveReserves: Queen outright tells the Waiters and Pleasures they're worthless fodder only good for a laugh and that he doesn't care if they end up incidentally killed by his manufactured plagues because they can easily be replaced. [[spoiler:Shortly after, they end up turning on him after Chopper makes a counter-virus and cures them.]] |

| 1082 | Members of the Animal Kingdom Pirates who have yet to eat a [=SMILE=] and thus wait for their chance to become beasts. |
| 1083 | ----- |
| 1084 | * FearlessFool: They somehow think that they have a chance against Luffy, ''after Queen took off his seastone handcuffs''. [[CurbStompBattle They are defeated in an instant]]. |
| 1085 | * KnowWhenToFoldEm: Queen offers the position of new Tobi Roppo to whoever defeats Luffy and all of the Headliners and Gifters gleefully join the fight, while the Waiters are aware of their status as mooks and decide to keep partying since they know they have zero chance of succeeding. |
| 1086 | * MeaningfulName: They are called Waiters because they are ''waiting'' for their chance. |
| 1087 | * MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: [[spoiler:After Queen openly tells them and the Pleasures how lowly he views them and states that being turned into Ice Oni would make them of some use, the two groups openly rebel and pour their support to Chopper after he has cured them]]. |
| 1088 | * {{Mooks}}: More so than the Pleasures, since none of them ever had a chance to eat [=SMILE=]s yet and thus they're ranked below anyone who has, even faulty ones. |
| 1089 | * WalkingShirtlessScene: Unlike the Gifters and the Pleasures, the Waiters don't wear anything on their torsos, indicating that they are at the bottom of the crew's hierarchy. |
| 1090 | * WeHaveReserves: Queen outright tells the Waiters they're worthless fodder since there are no more [=SMILE=] to eat and that he doesn't care if they end up incidentally killed by his manufactured plagues because they can easily be replaced.
