Puppu

Puppu is the captain of an unnamed crew that debuted in Alabasta.

Appearance


Puppu is an obese and round man, with a very round face, bulbous nose, a row of rounded teeth, and gray hair sticking unkempt on the sides and on top of his head. His arms and legs are very thin in proportion to his wide frame, and his fingers are very thick and short. All this made Puppu resemble a pig.

He wore a simple white shirt that is untucked from his red pirate sash, blue pants and simple shoes. Like most pirate captains, he wore a pirate's coat, but he wore the sleeves instead of letting the coat drape over his shoulders like a cape; his coat is brown in color, and has five large buttons that resemble pig snouts. He also wore a tricorn with his jolly roger on it: a square pig's skull with a snout, rounded teeth, and a leaf on top of its head.

Personality
Puppu is prideful and overconfident, believing the Shichibukai to be pirates who sold their soul to the "World Government", and are no more than their dogs. This made him believe that he and his crew were above Crocodile, a mistake that made him foolishly challenge the Shichibukai, which led to Puppu and his crew's defeat.

Alabasta Arc
Puppu made a grave mistake in attempting to steal from a port city in Alabasta which was under the direct protection of Crocodile. Puppu insulted Crocodile for being a "government dog", and then when the Shichibukai jumped off of the building to greet the crew, Puppu and his crew impaled Crocodile with all of their blades. Thinking that he had won, Puppu's mockery turned to horror when Crocodile created a sandstorm to drain the water content from Puppu and his crew's bodies. Later, Crocodile was seen carrying their bodies out of town after the clash.

Translation and Dub Issues
His name roughly translates to "Oink Oink".
