Minorhinoceros

Minorhinoceros is one of the five Jailer Beasts of Impel Down. He is an "awakened" Zoan Devil Fruit user, having eaten a Devil Fruit that allows him to turn into a blue rhinoceros.

Due to his actions, he can be considered a supporting antagonist of the Impel Down Arc.

Appearance
In his Zoan form, Minorhinoceros is a large bipedal blue rhinoceros in overalls. He has cutesy eyes, large lips, and a runny nose like the other Jailer Beasts. He wields two spiked clubs.

Personality
Minorhinoceros is described as being bashful. Despite this and his ridiculous appearance, he is incredibly bloodthirsty like the other Jailer Beasts and the prisoners fear him. However, he acknowledges Sadi's superiority in battle, even fearing her when she got angry over his failure.

Abilities and Powers
As one of the Jailer Beasts of Impel Down under Sadi, Minorhinoceros is in charge of torturing and maintaining various prisoners.

Weapons
He wields two iron clubs, covered with spikes.

Devil Fruit
He has eaten an as-of-yet unnamed Zoan type Devil Fruit that allows him to become a rhinoceros. Because he is an "Awakened Zoan", he is able to recover rapidly even after suffering high amounts of damage. Like the other Jailer Beasts, his Awakening did not ultimately succeed, resulting him being rendered near mindless and feral.

Past
In the past history of Impel Down, the Jailer Beasts were one of the main threats in Impel Down; due to their amazing ferocity, thirst for blood and their incredible strength.

Impel Down Arc
The Minorhinoceros was called to Level 4 to try stop the riot that had started to take place, due to Luffy and Ivankov. However, Jinbe put an end to the Minorhinoceros' rampage by sending him flying with a powerful uppercut. After Sadi recovers from her fight with Ivankov, she whips the Minorhinoceros and other Jailer Beasts and orders them to go to Level 1. They arrive in time to attack Buggy's group, but are later defeated again by Luffy and Jinbe.

From the Decks of the World
After the timeskip, Minorhinoceros is seen with the other Jailer Beasts with their new member: Minochihuahua.

Trivia
