Macro Pirates

The Macro Pirates (マクロ一味, Makuro Ichimi) were a trio of fishmen who are notable for abducting the mermaid Keimi thirty-one times. The trio used to be old friends of Hatchan, and the leader Macro was once a member of the Sunny Pirates like Hatchan. However, after he destroyed their ship and took back Keimi, they were on negative terms.

They appear in Hatchan's Sea-Floor Stroll when Hatchan sold Keimi to them for exchange of a map. After Hatchan later comes to believe the map they sold him was a fake, he destroys their ship, beats them up, and frees Keimi. More recently, the Macro Pirates were brought under the reign of the kidnapping ring lead by Duval near the Sabaody Archipelago. After Hatchan was freed, they attempted to kill him, however he easily bested all of them with his fists.

Members
The crew is rather small, as it only has three members: Macro, Gyaro, and Tansui.

Ship
The Macro Pirates' ship is an odd craft with paddle wheels and a large fish bowl taking up all the room on the back half of the ship. The steering is on the front of the ship, and there is a small cabin on the front half of the ship. On top of the cabin is rooftop held by pillars, a fish on top of the roof, and a sofa with a high back underneath. The crew's jolly roger is on top of the tank. It was first seen in Chapter 197's cover page, and last seen in Chapter 208's cover page, when Hatchan destroyed it.

Trivia

 * Despite the Sunny pirates' take on slavery, Macro and his group show no objections towards the idea of handing in Mermaids or other Fishmen, despite the reactions of other Fishmen and Merman seen in the series towards such an act.
