He's probably still alive, considering his relation to the straw hats. Especially since there are very few deaths in one piece, like after Luffy beat Enel who fell into the white-white sea with his ship, then was shown flying away later. Unless someone rescued him from the ocean, that makes no sense because he ate a devil fruit.
