Numbers

The Numbers are a group within the Beasts Pirates.

Overview
The Numbers are comparable in size to giants, utterly dwarfing humans and longarms like Scratchmen Apoo; Eustass Kid noted that Hatcha seemed even bigger than a typical giant. They all possess two horns on their heads, much like Kaido, and at least two of them carry a spiked club similar to Kaido's kanabō, thus giving them traits similar to those of the legendary oni. Two of them have been shown with very sharp teeth. Their physical constitutions vary greatly, with some being taller and slimmer while others are shorter and rounder. One member has a notably long neck.

According to Queen, every member of the Numbers has a drinking problem. A child from Hakumai told another child that they would be eaten by the Numbers if spotted, but it is unknown whether this is the truth or merely a rumor.

Members
The only member of the Numbers to be seen in full so far is Hatcha, who is themed around the number eight. Hatcha is noted to be even larger than most giants, and as per Queen's description, is shown to be an unruly and destructive drunk.

Past
The Numbers have been associated with Kaido and the Beasts Pirates for at least 20 years, as one of them was shown to pursue the fleeing Nine Red Scabbards on their way back to Oden Castle. As Inuarashi and Nekomamushi began blaming each other for Oden's fate, a comparatively small and roundish Number took advantage of their distraction and caught them both in its bare hands, forcing Denjiro and Ashura to turn back in order to aid them and slow down the pursuing Beasts Pirates.

Wano Country Arc
After spending some time away, the Numbers and Scratchmen Apoo returned to Wano Country in order to partake in Kaido's Fire Festival, and were granted passage through the waterfall to Hakumai.

The Numbers were later present during the Beasts Pirates party in Onigashima.
