Chiyobbaba

Chiyobbaba is the owner of a clothing store on a small island. She never had friends, and therefore accepted Chimpy's offer despite previously disliking him for his brashness. She is a counterpart to Chopper.

Appearance
Chiyobbaba is a short old woman with dark brown hair forming a hat shape. She has white hair in shape of an X in the center of her hair, and two brown curls over either shoulder. She wears a blue robe with a brown and white sash, and, like her counterpart, has a blue nose.

Personality
Chiyobbaba is extremely shy, and severely dislikes dirty humor and anything inappropriate. This distaste goes so far that when she sees Chimpy's exposed groin, she often faints and, on at least one occasion, even has her soul temporarily leave her body.

She is also very outspoken, lambasting Chimpy's crew for their conduct and disregard for social norms. However, this outspokenness yields to her general loneliness, with Chiyobbaba willing to join Chimpy after a single invitation despite her dislike of his conduct.

Abilities and Powers
While initially without it, Chiyobbaba gains the ability to emulate Kenbunshoku Haki. By quickly circling her opponent, she is able to correctly identify how and what she needs to say to mentally defeat them.

Past
When she was a little girl, Chiyobbaba was bullied for her blue nose, causing her to distrust others. Due to this, she avoided making friends her entire life, living a life of near-solitude.

Chin Piece
Chiyobbaba was tending her store when Chimpy and his crew barged in, running from a Marine soldier. At the sight of Chimpy's exposed penis, she began furiously yelling at them, comparing them to other people she deems despicable. After a comment by Kusopp about her friends, she began ranting about not needing any, prompting Chimpy to ask her to become his friend. Stunned at his request, she accepted, stating that she'd join his crew on the condition that they do something about his clothing.

Chiyobbaba and Kusopp tried to fit Chimpy into shorts, a loincloth, and a skirt, but none of them worked out. In desperation, she decided not to join his crew, which Chimpy accepted. He promised that they would be glad to take her if she ever changed her mind and left the building, inciting panic from Chiyobbaba, who didn't want him to flash passerbys. She began running in front of him, strategically covering his groin, and gaining praise from Sasoz and Mechayowa Yoro. Distracted from the praise, Chiyobbaba lost track of Chimpy, who had regained the attention of the Marine from earlier; having been found again, the entire group was arrested for public indecency.

The group was eventually passed along to Pink Koinu, Mint Kotori, and Lemonade Kozaru, though Chiyobbaba was able to escape from his restraints in the process. She, along with Chimpy and Sasoz, tried to rescue Yoro and Kusopp, but were stopped by the three Marines; to compensate for their weakness, they went to train and develop Haki for two minutes.

Upon returning, Chiyobbaba was able to emulate Kenbunshoku Haki, using it to depress Pink Koinu. She watched as Chimpy defeated the three Marines, and waved goodbye as they left.

The pirates continued to travel together, until they eventually encountered Yamada Shinichi. Shinichi convinced Chimpy to return to his family, and the crew split up.

Future
Some time later, Chiyobbaba died of old age, being 1592 years old.
