Rakuyo

Rakuyou is the commander of the 7th division of the Whitebeard Pirates. His name was revealed in a SBS of Volume 58.

Appearance
Rakuyou is a mustached man with dreadlocks. He wears a typical outfit consisting of a light coat, a black vest under an unbuttoned shirt, a standard pirate sash, square-patterned pants and standard boots. His outfit most notably includes a bandanna bearing Whitebeard's mark. He is often seen wielding a unique spiked ball and chain that has a face at the end. This weapon vaguely resembles the Chain Chomp enemy from the Super Mario franchise in design.

Abilities and Powers
As a commander of the 7th division of Whitebeard's crew, Rakuyou has authority over the lower-ranking subordinates. He is also very strong, as Jinbei has mentioned that the Division commanders have "the strength of 100 men". Also, he appeared unharmed after his confrontation with Admiral Kizaru, despite the latter possessing destructive light-based powers.

Weapon
Rakuyuo possesses a chain with a large spiked ball attached to it, which appears to have a face of some sort. By hurling the spiked ball towards an opponent, he is somehow able to make it "chomp down" on them. It is unknown if this weapon has eaten a Devil Fruit or has some sort of mechanical device that allows it to move.

History
When it was revealed that Ace was going to be publicly executed in Marineford, Rakuyuo joined the rest of Whitebeard's fleet and their allies to rescue Ace. Arriving in the Marine headquarters, they fought to save their captured comrade alongside some late additions to the war.
