Vasco Shot

Basco Shot is a large member of the Blackbeard Pirates. Known as "Mighty Drinker" Basco Shot (大酒のバスコ・ショット, Ōzake no Basuko Shotto), he was one of the legendary criminals who was given a life sentence in Level 6 of Impel Down. Their crimes were so atrocious that they were effectively erased from history itself. He was initially mentioned briefly by Emporio Ivankov. He is currently taking part in the Whitebeard War alongside his new crew the Blackbeard Pirates.

Appearance
Basco is a very large and round man. In fact, of all the Blackbeard Pirates, his size is second only to San Juan Wolf. Having been brought out recently from Impel Down, he is first seen wearing the said prison's standard inmate attire of white and black horizontal stripes. He has a very long nose and smiles drunkenly with his tongue sticking out. Strangely, it appears his large nose is placed higher on his face than his eyes. He also has a rather large forehead and what appears to be a jester's hat on his head. On the sides of his neck, he has two sets of three rings pierced on.

True to his moniker, he is also seen chugging on a large gourd of liquor upon his introduction. He seems to wear the gourd on his back. It has the kanji "sake" (酒) on the bottom section.

Personality
He appears to have a very vicious personality as he asked Blackbeard for permission to kill all the people at Marineford regardless of their strength. True to his moniker, Shot is seen drinking sake from a massive calabash gourd, and has a drunk appearance from it.

Abilities and Powers
His abilities have not yet been shown, but he was powerful enough to be contained in Level 6 of Impel Down when caught by the World Government. He was shown using a pistol against Whitebeard.

Past
Basco Shot was once one of the most feared criminals in the world, but was eventually caught by the World Government and sentenced to life in Impel Down, Level 6, where he was effectively erased from history.

Impel Down Arc
Shot was mentioned briefly by Emporio Ivankov as part of an explanation of Level 6's true horror to Mr. 2 Bon Kurei. Later, he was broken out of his prison cell by the Blackbeard Pirates and was recruited into the crew.

Marineford Arc
He was seen alongside the Blackbeard Pirates and fellow criminals, all of whom have been recruited into the crew, and are now at Marineford, to watch Whitebeard die. He is among the crew in assaulting Whitebeard, and is barraging him with bullets.

After Whitebeard dies, Basco Shot assists his fellow cremates in covering Whitebeard's body in a black cloth and guards Blackbeard as he starts to demonstrate his powers.

He is then, along with the rest of his crew, attacked by a shockwave caused by Sengoku in his Buddha form.
