Phoenix Pirates

The Phoenix Pirates are a pirate crew, appearing first in the filler Ice Hunter Arc.

They were former pirates, who were deprived of their flag by the Achino Family and were forced by them to become their soldiers.

While in the New World, they were defeated by a powerful adversary and the Phoenix Pirates Vice-Captain Vigaro died to protect his crew.

With the help of the Straw-Hats they got their flag back and continued sailing.
