Pumpkin Pirates

The Pumpkin Pirates were an anime-only group of children who pretended to be pirates that lived on Ruluka island 50 years ago. The members are Rapanui Pasqua, Isoka, Henzo, Pukau, Rongo and Akibi.

History
One day, their home village was attacked by Wetton and his pirate crew. The Pumpkin Pirates managed to foil the pirate's plan, but only to be sucked in the Rainbow Mist and ending up in Ape's Concert. Only Henzo managed to escape, sacrificing himself to save his friends from Wetton. The rest of the Pumpkin Pirates have been living in Ape's Concert ever since and managed to survive. Until they meet up with Luffy, Zoro, Usopp, Robin and a grown-up Henzo in which they help them stop Wetton's scheme and were returned home earlier in the timeline. In an Ontological Paradox, they become the very Marines that chased the Straw Hat Pirates to Ruluka Island in the first place.
