*SPOILERS for those of you aren't caught up in the manga!*

Well, for Akainu, when he caught her he said he was worried when he'd heard she run away. And he wasn't acting all, "YOU'RE PIRATE SCUM, I'M GONNA MAGAMA FIST YOU, GRAAR!" You know? So I'm thinking, he's either got some close relationship with her (i.e. he's her father) or she's someone important.

That's where my other theory that she's a World Noble comes in. I mean, that hat's kinda perfect for hiding that wierd hairstyle, you know? Or it was until it got all messed up... Hahaha.
