Patty

Patty (パティ, Pati) is a cook on board the Baratie.

Appearance
Patty physically resembles Popeye, though he has a much larger build thus looking like Popeye's rival, Bluto. He is also the only other cook who wears a black uniform besides Sanji.

Personality
Patty is one of the cooks of the Baratie, who doesn't always see eye to eye with Sanji. He has a very business-minded attitude towards customers: those who pay get good and friendly service; those that don't get the boot. However, he tends to unknowingly insult his customers when he greets them. His kinder side shows when he tries to save Gin after having breathed in poison gas.

Abilities and Powers
Essentially Patty acts as a "bouncer" preventing trouble on the Baratie. He is muscular and stronger than the average human being but does not demonstrate any Super-Human Strength.


 * Shokuatari Meatball (食あたり砲弾（ミートボール）, literally meaning "Indigestion Meatball") is an attack Patty uses to defeat tough pirates. Using a lobster-shaped bazooka, he shoots a huge exploding cannonball at the offender. However, it was ineffective against Krieg's Wootz Steel Armor. In the Viz Manga, 4Kids and FUNimation dubs, this is called the Meatball of Doom.

History
When he was first introduced, he was seen berating Sanji for beating up Fullbody. Later on, he taunts the starving Gin by refusing to give him food and knocks out Sanji so that the chef would not cook for Don Krieg and his men. He, along with Carne, contribute to helping defend the restaurant from Don Krieg, particularly by rallying the other cooks to defeat Don Krieg's lower subordinates. However, he, along with Carne, were defeated by Pearl. He and the other cooks then witnessed the defeat of Don Krieg at the hands of Luffy.

After the Enies Lobby incident, he was seen laughing at Sanji's wanted poster.

Translation and Dub Issues
In the 4Kids dub, Patty has an Irish accent.

Trivia

 * Patty's name taken from the name of a type of dessert specialist (pâtissière).
