Inuarashi

"Duke Inu-Arashi" is one of the two rulers of Mokomo Dukedom, a civilization of minkmen, dubbed the "King of Day".

Appearance
Inu-Arashi is a grizzled dog with shoulder-length black ears. He is incredibly large, as he dwarfs Wanda when sitting down. He has a beard and wears a small pair of sunglasses.

In his first appearance, he wore a king-like robe and his head and torso were covered in bandages.

Personality
Inu-Arashi was eager to meet the Straw Hat Pirates after they saved the Mokomo Dukedom, indicating a grateful personality. He seems to be humble, as he downplayed his strength when he was complimented by Luffy.

Abilities and Powers
As one of the two rulers of Mokomo Dukedom, he holds a large amount of influence amongst his kin.

According to Wanda, he is the country's strongest warrior, and that he had the upper hand in the battle against Jack before he brought in one of Caesar Clown's weapons.

Past
Jack and the Beasts Pirates invaded the Mokomo Dukedom, and Inu-Arashi helped defend it. He had the upper hand until Jack used one of Caesar Clown's poison gas weapons. Inu-Arashi eventually fell into a deep coma during the battle.

Zou Arc
On the day Luffy's group arrived on Zou, Inu-Arashi awoke from his coma and wished to meet the Straw Hat Pirates. Chopper, Miyagi, and Tristan raced to give him medical treatment, and Wanda and the other Straw Hats soon arrived. Inu-Arashi thanked all of them for saving his country, and Luffy admired his strength. Inu-Arashi rebuffed this, saying he had been defeated, though Wanda reminded him that he had the upper hand until Jack used his weapon.

Trivia

 * "Inu-Arashi", although not written in kanji, means "Dog-Storm". The second part could also be short for "porcupine" (ヤマアラシ), which would match Neko-Mamushi's naming scheme of two animals, and is used in the Viz translation.
