Haruta

Haruta is the commander of the 12th division of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Appearance
Haruta is a fairly short, and somewhat masculine looking man wearing a green and white 16th century style outfit. He carries a sabre, whose handguard resembles the puffy shoulder straps of his shirt. Haruta has a crop of short brown hair.

Abilities and Powers
As the commander of the 12th division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Haruta has authority over the lower-ranking subordinates. He appears to be a swordswoman, and is presumably very strong. This statement was bolstered when Jinbei remarked that all of the Whitebeard commanders have great strength.

Marineford Arc
He joined his comrades during the assault on Marineford in order to save Ace, and was one of the Commanders who backed up Luffy when the latter was attacked by Admiral Kizaru. Later he helped in the assault of the Plaza. He was seen crying when Admiral Akainu killed Ace and later appeared along side his fellow Whitebeard division commanders fought Akainu. This battle was never shown, but he is shown to be unharmed later on. Upon the arrival of Shanks and Sengoku calling the war coming to a close, he and the rest of Whitebeards crew left.

Post War Arc
He, along with the rest of the crew attended the funeral of Whitebeard and Ace on a undisclosed location somewhere on the Grand Line.
