Nostra Castello

The  is the ship of the Fire Tank Pirates.

Ship Design and Appearance
The Nostra Castello follows the crew's theme of a fortress, equipped with various weapons and having a castle in place of a cabin. The figurehead is a rook with dual cannons. The bottom front sail has a simplified version of the crew's Jolly Roger, while the top sail has the name their captain's name, "BEGE", on it.

The ship has retractable tank treads on the side, allowing the ship to move forward without the need of the sails, similar to a paddle-ship, or even travel on land.

During the timeskip, the front has further reinforcements around the bow area.

Marineford Arc
The Fire Tank Pirates approached Marineford at a safe distance to witness the Battle of Marineford on board of the Nostra Castello.

Post-War Arc
When the Fire Tank Pirates entered the New World, they were suddenly dragged into the sky by a large black object. Unable to resist its gravitational pull, the crew cried out in horror and shock.

Whole Cake Island Arc
After their failed attempt to assassinate Charlotte Linlin, the crew boarded the Nostra Castello and escaped from Whole Cake Island. Bege decide to take the shortest route to Cacao Island to pick up his wife Chiffon. Upon arriving at Cacao Island's port, the Fire Tank Pirates were ordered to surrender by Charlotte Oven who held Chiffon hostage. However, after Bege freed Chiffon from Oven's clutches, the crew decided to keep moving forward, revealing that the ship can travel on land, before retrieving Chiffon and securing the second wedding cake. They then departed to meet the Thousand Sunny at sea. During the escape from Cacao Island, Oven tried to stop them by boiling the sea, causing some damage to the ship.

Trivia

 * The ship's name is likely a reference to "Cosa Nostra", the Italian name for the Sicilian Mafia.
 * The ship's name means "our castle" in Italian although the correct association would have been "Nostro Castello" since Castello (castle) is a male noun.
