Shirahoshi

Shirahoshi, the Mermaid Princess (人魚姫) is a giant smelt-whiting mermaid and the youngest of King Neptune's children. She was first mentioned by Pappug, claiming he knew her and even promised to introduce her to the Straw Hat Pirates when they arrived at Fishman Island (though later this does not appear to be the case).

Appearance
Shirahoshi as a mermaid is described as "cute but huge" in her introduction.

Personality
When she is first introduced she proclaims she is not afriad of a potential attacker (which she mistakes Luffy as) but despite her size is a cry baby.

History
According to Pappug, Vander Decken IX started sending letters to Princess Shirahoshi once a week and soon, those letters grew into packages. When he started sending threatening marriage proposals, she became so terrified of him that she couldn't ignore him anymore. This angered King Neptune, and his sons gathered an army to find Vander Decken IX.

When the Straw Hat Pirates were taken to the Ryugu Palace, Monkey D. Luffy wandered off on his own in pursuit of a smell of good food. Eventually, he stumbled upon her room, where Princess Shirahoshi was sleeping. It looked as though the room was attacked and seems like people were after her life. So it was built with the intention of keeping her safe from her attackers. Luffy was unknowingly walking across her stomach and fell between her breasts. When she woke up, she became greatly distressed. She thought that Luffy was one of the many attackers who have been targeting her life. She says shes not scared since shes a daugter of Neptune but shes crying to no end while asking for assisstance.
