Hachinosu

Hachinosu ("Beehive"), also known as Pirate Island (海賊島), is a New World island known to be a pirate paradise, currently occupied by the Blackbeard Pirates.

It is said to be the origin of the Davy Back Fight and where the legendary pirate crew Rocks Pirates was formed.

Geography
Hachinosu is a relatively small island (though still shown to dwarf the Thriller Bark) with a large, skull-fashioned rock formation in its center, towering over all else. A city of many smaller buildings, all square, crudely brick-built ones, surrounds said skull, as does a series of large palm trees. The skull's inside is carved into what appears to be a fortress (where Blackbeard has been shown to reside), with the "nose" hole being a giant window (with additional, smaller windows dotting the skull here and there), and both "eye" holes going right through the whole structure. On the outside, the skull is carved to look like it is wearing a bandana, including a protrusion on the left side shaped like a knot.

Trivia

 * "Hachinosu" (蜂の巣) is Japanese for "beehive" or "honeycomb".
 * Hachinosu is likely based on Port Royal, Jamaica where pirates from around the world congregated. During the 1660s, the city had become a pirate utopia and had gained a reputation as the "Sodom of the New World".
 * Port Royal has also been subject to severe earthquakes as well as accompanying tsunamis, furthering the connection between Marshall D. Teach and Gura Gura no Mi.
