Den

Den is Tom's younger brother. He is a bering wolffish merman. He is also a shipwright and Sea Forest researcher.

Appearence
Den is a muscular merman with long, curly fair hair reaching down below his shoulders. His long and hooked nose points downward. He has a moustache and a dark, long, pointed goatee. He is almost always seen smiling.

He has tattoos resembling four-leafed clovers on each of his arms; this symbol is also present on the dark, short-sleeved shirt he wears. He also wears a wide-brimmed hat on his head and what appear to be glasses or safety goggles on his face. He has an earring on each of his ears and a beaded necklace around his neck. Much like his brother, Tom, he carries around a bag full of tools attached to a belt around his waist; just below it is tied a light cloth, somewhat similar to an apron.

Personality
Den is a cheerful individual, shown smiling in most of his appearances so far. He also appears to be very friendly.

Just like his older brother, Den has a habit of saying "don".

Abilities and Powers
Den is a shipwright and as Tom's little brother it is very possible that he is as talented as Tom. Being a Sea Forest researcher, he has some knowledge about the sea forest. He also appears to be a skilled coating mechanic.

History
Den was first seen on the Thousand Sunny talking with Franky about Tom. Den compliments Franky on the ship that he built and agreed to coat it. When Franky asked Den about why he doesn't look alike like Tom, Den explained to Franky about how fishman and merman genetics work when there is inter-species breeding. Fishmen and merfolk still carry the genes of their ancestors, so the species is not determined only by the parents, but it can be any of the species of their ancestors. Den then jokingly asked Franky if one of his ancestors was a robot. When Franky noticed someone sitting in front of a grave in the distance, Den pointed out that the person is Jinbe, explaining that Jinbe is waiting for someone in the forest since he cannot enter the island because he is a wanted criminal.

Luffy, Shirahoshi, Megalo, Sanji, Hatchan, and Chopper soon arrive at the Sea Forest. Den is surprised to see the Mermaid Princess outside of the palace. Luffy wonders who the merman is and what is he doing on the Thousand Sunny. Franky then introduces Den to Luffy.
