Wadatsumi

"Ōnyūdō" Wadatsumi is a giant tiger blowfish fishman and a member of the Flying Pirates under captain Vander Decken IX.

Appearance
Wadatsumi is an enormous fishman, equal in size to the head of a kraken, Surume. His round head and chest are quite big in comparison to his arms and legs. His hands are webbed. He has a big, round face, with a large mouth full of massive, round teeth quite distant from one another, and childlike eyes. He has some stubble on his chin and dark hair surrounding his head, taking the shape of a protrusion pointing upwards at the top, which also covers a part of his shoulders. His whole body is also quite hairy. He apparently wears a pair of extremely loose pants paired with a dark indument tied around his waist; and some sort of boot-like footwear. His overall shape, size, and eyes strongly resemble that of Sanjuan Wolf's. Due to his appearance, Wadatsumi was incorrectly called an Umibozu by Usopp.

Abilities and Powers
Due to his large size he is very strong. He shows his immense strength by hurting Ankoro, an angler fish several times the size of the Thousand Sunny, with a single punch, even though the punch was only intended to prevent the fish from eating the Straw Hat Pirates, and not to harm him. Also, living in the depths of the Grand Line, he's capable of breathing underwater as well as surviving the crushing pressure of 7000 meters below sea level.

History


While the Straw Hats (minus Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji) were sailing through the underworld of the sea, Wadatsumi suddenly appeared from the rocks beneath the sea. He beats an angler fish with one blow to prevent it from eating the Thousand Sunny because the captain of the Flying Dutchman, Vander Decken, wants treasure. On Vander Decken's orders, Wadatsumi attempts to punch Thousand Sunny, but the kraken (which has been tamed by Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji) intervenes and knocks out Wadatsumi.

When the volcano erupts, Vander Decken orders Wadatsumi and Ankoro to pull the ship away from the magma. As the water temperature rose, he and the Flying Dutchman were thrown forward.

He is later seen walking on the sea floor pulling the Flying Dutchman. Vander Decken IX asks how many years that the Mermaid Princess has not reply to his letters. Wadatsumi answers that it's ten years and the princess still has not replied enraging Decken. He is then seen at Noah in the Fishmen District where Vander Decken IX and Hordy Jones form an alliance.
