Douglas Bullet

Douglas Bullet, known as the Demon Heir, is the main antagonist of One Piece: Stampede.

He was a former member of the Roger Pirates, and after leaving the crew was imprisoned in Impel Down. In the present, he has escaped Impel Down and is participating in the Pirates Expo.

Appearance
Douglas Bullet is a large man with broad shoulders. His hair is slicked back into a cowlick. He wears a collared buttoned shirt that is decorated with medals and insignia, some of which bear the initials "GF". He also wears a belt, pants, and boots, as well as earphones on his head and a feathery plume that goes down his back He has a massive red scar that goes down from the left side of his face to the side of his chest and upper arm.

As a young man, Bullet had a smaller frame and a very short haircut. Some years after that, he grew bigger and his hair became much longer. He lacked his scar at both of these points.

Personality
Bullet values strength above all else, gaining solace in it while constantly hungering to get stronger. He views positive interactions as a hindrance to this, and so has worked to forgo any friendships he makes. His disinclination toward friendships is also the result of being betrayed by comrades multiple times in his homeland. He believes that the Pirate King is the strongest person in the world who can kill anyone, and so aims to achieve that ideal. He has been shown developing admiration toward the few people who have bested him in combat, although still hungers to defeat them.

Abilities and Powers
As a fighter, Bullet can be considered to be one of the most powerful people in the world. He has been fighting in wars since infancy, engaging in highly dangerous tasks and putting his life constantly at risk on the battlefield but always surviving. While a member of the Gultzforce, he emerged as their strongest warrior after only a few years and his actions resulted in a war that had been described as "never-ending" concluding when he was 14. By this point, his own allies viewed his strength to be too dangerous for anyone to deal with, and he proceeded to wipe out all of them singlehandedly, essentially destroying an entire country by himself.

Physical Abilities
During his days as a pirate, almost no one could match Bullet in combat, and he did not meet defeat until he faced the future Pirate King Gol D. Roger. Buggy equated his strength at the time with Silvers Rayleigh's, and speculated that Bullet had surpassed Rayleigh due to continuing to train while Roger's first mate retired. Bullet's threat became so significant that a Buster Call was ordered solely to take him out, commandeered by legendary Marines Sengoku and Monkey D. Garp; even still, Bullet put up an intense fight, and it took the assistance of pirates to finally overwhelm him.

After training in Impel Down for over 20 years, Bullet's strength has grown even more colossal. He was capable of fighting against the Eleven Supernovas and defeating all of them, accomplishing such feats as overwhelming Capone Bege's Big Father with one blow, shrugging off X Drake in his allosaurus form and tossing him aside, and resisting blows from Monkey D. Luffy in his Boundman and Snakeman Gear Fourth forms while sustaining little injury.

Bullet is immensely fast, being capable of moving at a blinding speed that none of the Supernovas were capable of keeping up with, and keeping up with Luffy in his Snakeman form.

Devil Fruit
Bullet ate the Gasha Gasha no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to disassemble inanimate objects and assemble them into anything he wants with his mind. With this power, he can form a large variety of mechanical creations, most notably creating exoskeletons to significantly augment his physical power.

Bullet has awakened his fruit, allowing him to disassemble objects from a greater range. With his awakening, he can essentially restructure the landscape of entire islands by assembling their features as he sees fit, and creating and inhabiting a colossus whose physical presence is unparalleled.

Haki
Bullet can use all three types of Haki with mastery.

Kenbunshoku Haki
Bullet has mastered Kenbunshoku Haki to an advanced level he can see slightly into the future like Charlotte Katakuri. He was shown using his future vision to attack Usopp successfully predicting Luffy's movements and outpacing him.

Busoshoku Haki
Bullet is an extremely powerful Busoshoku Haki user, being able to cover his entire body in it and overpowering the Haki of most others he faces. He is also capable of imbuing his mechanical creations with Busoshoku Haki to augment their power.

Haoshoku Haki
Bullet is one of the rare people who possesses Haoshoku Haki.

Past
He was born on an island in the Grand Line that had a never-ending war. His parents abandoned him as a newborn, and he was raised by the military force of the state of Gultzberg, known as Gultzforce. Along with the other young recruits, he received the title Douglas and the name Bullet. Bullet was treated as an expendable, being given highly dangerous tasks. He sought to earn the Medal, a reward for the person with the most feats in battle. Bullet participated so much in battle that he grew close to earning it, only for his comrades to hold him back out of resentment for his strength. However, Bullet rounded up the comrades who stood against him and successfully took the Medal. Deciding to never be hindered by trust or carelessness, he would go on to win the Medal year after year. By the time he was 9 years old, his strength as a child soldier had become unparalleled, and he reveled in the pursuit of strength. At age 13, he was near his limit when he found and ate the Gasha Gasha no Mi, giving him the energy to survive.

By the time he was 14, Bullet's strength and accomplishments brought the war close to an end, and his commander-turned-general Douglas Gray, who was like a father figure to Bullet, promised him a promotion into the army's elite once the war was over, where Bullet would have peace and freedom. Bullet then took part in the war's final battle, where the other side ultimately surrendered. However, Bullet's comrades, including Gray, then turned on him, viewing his strength as too dangerous. Bullet managed to wipe them all out, leaving his entire country destroyed. This scale of destruction attracted the attention of the World Government, and Bullet departed as a pirate to seek more battles.

A year later, at the age 15, Bullet challenged Gol D. Roger and lost for the first time in his life. Bullet attacked Roger several more times, only to meet the same result. Bullet grew to admire Roger, and so joined his crew as a challenger. While on the crew, he became known as the "Demon Heir". Two years later, he found out about Roger's illness, and began having doubts about his chances of beating his captain. He also began feeling like his strength was inhibited by his loyalty to his crewmates, and so after another year challenged Roger to a final battle. Roger won once again, and Bullet left the crew. One year later, Bullet fought Crocodile and their battle ended in a draw.

After Roger was executed two years later, Bullet was unsure of what to do, and rampaged through the sea. A year later, a Buster Call was summoned against Bullet, and he fought against a Marine battalion led by Sengoku and Monkey D. Garp. Pirates that Bullet had defeated came and aided the Marines, allowing them to overwhelm Bullet and imprison him in Impel Down. Bullet continued training in the prison, eventually reaching his peak 21 years later at age 43. He would then escape following Marshall D. Teach's raid on Level 6.

Soon afterwards, Bullet found Buena Festa, who had been once thought dead, and the two of them acquired Roger's treasure. For the next two years, they planned the Pirates Expo, where Bullet intended to become the Pirate King by killing all of the world's strongest people.
