Speed

Speed is a Headliner of the Beasts Pirates who is stationed in Bakura Town. However, she is currently subordinate to Tama due to the latter's Devil Fruit powers.

Appearance
Speed is a tall woman who due to her Devil Fruit resembles a centaur, with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse. The right half of her hair is light while the left half is dark, and she has pierced horse ears. She wears a half-light, half-dark jacket with dark shoulder pauldrons and a short light feather cape, and has a saddle on the back of her horse body. Whenever she smiles, her mouth resembles that of a horse.

Personality
Speed is a serious woman who cares about her duties, and can get annoyed if she sees others goofing around. She is also proud because she does not like being given orders. Despite this, she seems cheerful when she is praised and will smile like a horse in a humorous fashion when complimented or treated well. She seems to like explaining her powers to other people, as seen when she boasted about her great range of vision.

After being tamed by Tama, Speed began to affectionately call her "Master". She is loyal as she even tried to defend Tama from Kaido.

Abilities and Powers
As a headliner, Speed has authority over the lower-ranking members of the Beasts Pirates, and she is one of the top authorities in Bakura Town along with Holdem and Basil Hawkins.

Devil Fruit
Speed is a horse SMILE user, giving her the lower body and ears of a horse. Her field of vision is greatly increased as well, with her claiming it to be 350 degrees. Her horse legs make her a very fast runner, and she is also capable of carrying people on her back.

However, since she is part horse, she is susceptible to Tama's animal-taming Devil Fruit power.

Weapons
Speed carries a bow on her back, although she has not been seen using it.

Wano Country Arc
Speed went into the Paradise Farm to collect provisions for her and her crewmates stationed in Bakura Town. She heard the fire bell ringing, and ensured that the fire was put out as she arrived at the recently destroyed remains of Holdem's house. She then brought the Treasure Ship of Provisions to Holdem as she asked him what was going on, and watched as her fellow headliner and some of her subordinates were suddenly taken out by Monkey D. Luffy and Roronoa Zoro.

Speed was shocked at Holdem's defeat when Luffy, thinking she was a horse, tried to ride on her back. Speed got angry, but when Tama offered some kibi dango made from her body, she ate it and became subservient to Tama, carrying her and Luffy out of Bakura Town as they made their way to Okobore Town. After Tama ate some food from the Treasure Ship of Provisions, Speed escorted her back to her home.

On the way, both Speed and Tama were attacked by Kaido when the Yonko discovered them. Speed was unable to protect Tama and she was greatly injured. She then traveled back to Okobore Town and collapsed. When Luffy found her, Speed told him what happened. He then put her out of harm's way as he fought Kaido.
