Haruta

Haruta is the commander of the 12th division of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Appearance
Haruta is a masculine-looking woman wearing a 16th century style outfit. Her shirt sleeves are tight on the biceps and billowing on the forearms, giving the impression that she has disproportionately large forearms, similar to Franky. However, the sleeves are seen in several positions indicating that its loose fabric and not 'Popeye arms'.

She carries a sabre, whose handguard resembles the shoulder straps of her dress.

Abilities and Powers
As the commander of the 12th division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Haruta has authority over the lower-ranking subordinates. She appears to be a swordswoman, and is presumably very strong. This statement was bolstered when Jinbei remarked that all of the commanders had great strength.

Marineford Arc
She joined her comrades during the assault on Marineford in order to save Ace, and was one of the Commanders who backed up Luffy when the latter was attacked by Admiral Kizaru. She joined her companions in the assault of the Plaza. She was seen crying when Admiral Akainu killed Ace and later appeared along side her fellow Whitebeard division commanders ready to face Akainu. She was last seen with the other Whitebeard Pirates, mourning the results of the war.
