Kid Pirates

The Kid Pirates are an infamous and notable rookie pirate crew introduced during the Sabaody Archipelago arc during the time the Straw Hat Pirates arrived there two years ago. Like the Straw Hats, this crew has two bounties above 100,000,000. Both members had slightly higher bounties than the respective members of the Straw Hat crew before the timeskip.

Past
Kid formed his own crew in the South Blue, following a heavy metal theme. Kid didn't add a lot of crewmembers though. The Kid Pirates were noted to wreck great havoc and cause many civilian casulties on their journey.

Saboady Archipelago Arc
Eventualy they reached the Sabaody Archipelago, where they wanted to purchase a slave, though it seems like they didn't buy one in the end. After Luffy hit Saint Charloss, Rayleigh appeared and used his Haki on everyone in the auction room, though every Kid Pirate could withstand it. Afterwards Kid and the other two Captains fought the marines. Eventualy Killer and Heat joined the fray as well, though they soon left the scene. Shortly afterwards they were confronted by a Pacifista which they mistook for Bartholomew Kuma. While struggling to fight him, they eventualy got help from the Heart Pirates. The conclusion of the battle was offscreen but every member survived it without any mayor injury

Marineford Arc
The Kid Pirates appeared to have stayed on the Archipelo a bit longer, to watch the Whitebeard War.

Timeskip
During the Timeskip the Kid Pirates continued to rise in infamy, as evidenced by Kid and Killer's bounties increasing, and their willingness to attack the ships of Big Mom's allies. In addition, the crew became powerful enough to establish their own base on an island. They also appear well connected, as they are aware of dealings in the underworld.

Punk Hazard Arc
The Kid Pirates met with the Hawkins and On Air Pirates in their own hide-out, though the alliance nearly broke apart because Kid and Apoo got into a fight. Killer managed to smooth things down though.

Crewmates
The most significant aspect of their appearance is that most, if not all of the Kid Pirates have heavy metalesque appearances. Also, many of them seem to wear leather in one way or another. There are 4 named members in the crew: Eustass Kid, Killer, Heat, and Wire. At the auction house, they stated that they might purchase someone who caught their eye. However, it appears that nobody interested them as they never ended up bidding on anyone.

Crew Strength
They are most known for dealing major township destruction and citizen casualties along their route through the Grand Line and towards the New World. Furthermore, the entire crew easily survived the blast of Haki released by Silvers Rayleigh, a testament to their overall strength. In spite of their great potency in battle and overall level-mindedness, the members of this crew display an inate sense of haughtiness. They, like the other Supernovas, were able to escape from Kizaru's raid despite being weakened by a Pacifista. After the timeskip, it is apparent that their strength and influence have increased, as evidenced by Kid and Killer's bounties being raised and the fact that they have their own base on an island.

Ship
Their ship continues the theme of heavy metal, with a bizarre skull as part of the deck, resembling some heavy metal bands' stages. Their ship has been coated with the Yarukiman resin, allowing it to submerge underwater by reducing its buoyancy, and withstanding the water pressure of 10,000 feet.

Trivia

 * Their Jolly Roger is similar to the face of Jack Skellington from "The Nightmare Before Christmas" franchise, a popular icon among goths and rockers. But, overall, their Jolly Roger is a smiley with a Glasgow smile. This symbol is seen on one of the Kid Pirates' members.
