Curiel

Curiel is the 10th division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Appearance
Curiel is a large and sturdy man with glasses who wears a bucket hat over his head and a pair of ear protectors that resemble a pair of modern headphones. He also has the Whitebeard jolly roger tattoed on his chin. He wears a vest and spotted army pants.

Personality
Like all division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, Curiel seems to be very loyal to Whitebeard, as when he battles against Moria he said he will let neither his captain nor his nakama Ace go to their deaths.

Abilities and Powers
As commander of the tenth division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Curiel has authority over the pirates in his division.

He's equipped with guns and cannons and seems to be a formidable fighter using these kind of weapons, as he is able to confront one of the Shichibukai, Gecko Moria.

Marineford Arc
During the war, Curiel was first seen attacking with the other Whitebeard Pirates, after Admiral Aokiji froze the bay and immobilized all the ships. Later, he was seen fighting against Gecko Moria, claiming that he will not allow Whitebeard or Ace to die.

When the steel walls came up, he was seen attacking them with his cannons, but to no avail. He then dodged one of Akainu's magma fists and then helped his division out of the hot water. He managed to get onto Whitebeard's black paddleship and was last seen standing next to his fellow crewmates.

Later, after Akainu mortally wounds Ace, he attacked Akainu with his cannons, but to no avail. He later cries as he is watching Whitebeard die at the hands of Blackeard's Pirates.

He joins his crewmembers ready to fight Akainu. Sometime afterwards, he suffers a defeat by the hands of Akainu, lying charred at the admiral's feet.
