"Thunder Lord" Makugai is an infamous New World pirate who allied himself with Whitebeard.

Appearance
Makugai has a long face with a big nose and prominent chin, wavy blonde hair reaching to his shoulders, and a black mustache shaped like a lightning bolt. He sports a blue shirt with loose sleeves and ruffled edges under a black vest. Due to his legs not being visible enough in the manga, in the anime he was given dark bermuda shorts and an orange sash decorated by a silver colored ornament with a red jewel in it.

Personality
Though little can be said regarding Makugai's personality in the manga. In the anime, he was shown to be perceptive enough to see through Sengoku's tactic to lure the Pirates in for the Pacifista to attack

Abilities and Powers
Makugai has managed to make himself an infamous reputation in the New World, and has managed to ally himself with Whitebeard. Also, he was very observant, as he managed to understand why Whitebeard ordered the allies to split up in order to avoid being trapped by the Pacifista.

Weapons
Makugai is a swordsman, although his exact level of ability remains unknown, however it is presumed quite high. He was somehow able to channel electricity through his blade, increasing the damage done. Whether this ability stems from a Devil Fruit, a Dial, or another method is currently unknown. In the anime, his swordsmanship skill was shown to be able fight on equal grounds against a Vice Admiral.

Marineford arc
Makugai and his crew are first seen, along with a fleet of 42 other infamous pirate crews, allied with the Whitebeard Pirates, attacking Marineford to save Portgas D. Ace from his execution. When Squardo stabbed Whitebeard due to being deceived by Admiral Akainu, Makugai was seen as shocked as the other allies. He is later seen among the group of New World captains backing up Luffy and Ivankov on Whitebeard's orders.

When the Blackbeard Pirates launched a barrage of bullets and blades at Whitebeard and killing in the process, Makugai was seen crying. He is seen behind fellow New World ally Doma, showing shock at seeing the Yonkou, Shanks appear on the battlefield.

Upon Shanks calling for a ceasefire and the war coming to a close, Makugai and the other pirates left.
