Rapanui

Rapanui Pasqua is a high ranking marine in the world of One Piece, appearing in the Rainbow Mist filler arc.

Apearance
Rapanui is a somewhat older man with blond hair. He possesses great muscles and wears a common marine uniform, below which he wears a black sweatshirt. He also normally wears dark sunglasses. As a young boy, he was a rather stocky person, with a big nose, and looked quite similar to Usopp's father Yasopp.

History
He first appears, chasing the Straw Hats into Ruluka and purposely missing them, while employing his fighting technique called Finger Bomber - the power to throw coins really fast and with a very destructive impact.

He is later seen as a child trapped in the Rainbow Mist and as captain of the Pumpkin Pirates. It is revealed that he is Henzo's childhood friend. When Whetton burned down Ruluka, he and his other friends, minus Henzo, stole Whetton's ship, the Tyriel and drives it into the Rainbow mist.

Upon meeting the Straw Hats and Henzo in the rainbow mist, he does not trust them, however later, he wanders off into the rainbow mist with Luffy and is trapped, until they can manage to find an opening. A few moments later, the Rainbow Mist collapses thanks to Whetton's actions (blowing up the Rainbow Tower, connecting the outside world with it). Upon escape from the Rainbow mist, the Straw Hats cannot find Rapanui or his friends.

However, he later reappears as a marine commander and arrests Whetton for stealing pirate's treasure and after Whetton confesses to have been a pirate.

He also says he will arrest the Straw Hats, but he then theatrically exclaims they have no room on their ship with Whetton's people and how backup could takes several weeks to arrive and lets them go. It is later revealed that he's the author of the Rainbow Mist books from Volume 1 to 10.

His father was a Marines commander before him.
