Personality[]

Bear King is a tyrant, as he conquered Clockwork Island and forced the scientists to create his ultimate weapon by threatening to destroy the island's key, which would destroy the entire island, if they tried to defy him. He was rather angry when Borodo used his King Cannon against him.

He also has a lust for Nami and tried to force her into marrying him. When she repeatedly refused, he threatened to kill all of her friends and her as well.[1]

Abilities and Powers[]

Bear King is the captain of the entire Trump Pirates pirate crew, having complete authority over all members, including the other "siblings".[1] He is one of the strongest pirates of the East Blue due to earning a bounty of Beli11,600,000, as any bounty over Beli10,000,000 is considered impressive in that region.[2]

Bear King has eaten the Kachi Kachi no Mi Devil Fruit, which allows his body to become hard as rock to augment his defenses, as well as enables his strikes to hit harder. Another effect of his Devil Fruit is that it allows him to heat up his fist, and possibly other parts of his body, at will, allowing him to burn his opponents upon contact.[1]

Bear King possesses the mighty King Cannon, which he forced the scientists of Clockwork Island to build for him. It can fire devastating shells with a drilling motion. These ammunition have produce an impact great enough to cause huge waves in the sea. He intended to use this as his primary weapon to become the next Pirate King.

He also has a handgun, the barrel of which resembles a screw, that can shoot drilling bullets that explode.[1]

History[]

Past[]

Seven years ago, he and his crew took over Clockwork Island and gained control of the island's key before forcing the islanders to build the King Cannon, which he intended to use to become Pirate King.

East Blue Saga[]

Clockwork Island Adventure[]

At Trump Castle, two scientists were telling Bear King about the current progress of the King Cannon's construction and protested that too much blood had been spilled. However, Bear King simply shot at them and reminded them that he would break the island's main key, which would destroy the whole island. He then asked some of his men to show them out and said to himself that the King Cannon would make him the King of Pirates. Afterwards, Honey Queen and Boo Jack came back with a gift for him, which Bear King was happy to find out was Nami. He then said that she was definitely his type and asked her to marry him. In response, Nami said that she hated hairy men, to which Bear King said that he would shave it all off. She then said that she hated weak men, to which Bear King said he was super strong. However, Nami then said that she knew he could not defeat Luffy, causing Bear King to ask who Luffy was. Boo Jack explained that Luffy was Nami's friend, with Pin Joker adding that they should be cautious of the pirate "Straw Hat" Luffy. Bear King questioned why he should be cautious and decided that he would take down the pirate and use his Beli30,000,000 bounty towards his and Nami's wedding.

While waiting for Luffy to arrive, the Trump Siblings played cards with Nami, losing every game. Honey Queen and Boo Jack then got up to look for the Straw Hat Pirates. When they returned, they brought back Sanji. Bear King told Nami how nice he was for not having her friend killed, only captured. He then ordered Skunk One to go after the other Straw Hats upon Nami saying that marriage is a big decision. Later, Bear King was filled with joy when the Hyena Three brought in the newly completed King Cannon. However, when Sanji told him that he had rubbed lotion on Nami's back, Bear King ordered him to be executed. After Skunk One returned with Usopp, Bear King ordered Usopp to be crucified as well when Nami showed concern for him.

After Pin Joker returned with Zoro, Bear King declared that he would test the King Cannon on the three Straw Hats that had been captured. Nami then told him that she would rather die with them than marry him, to which Bear King then declared that the wedding would be canceled and that a memorial for his love would be held instead. He then prepared to fire the cannon, but was stopped when Borodo came through a rising wall, effectively blocking the cannon from the captured Straw Hats. Borodo then showed Bear King that he was carrying dynamite. Bear King dared him to ignite the dynamite and reminded him that if he did so, he would destroy the island's key and the island with it. In the moment that Borodo hesitated, Bear King charged at him and then pummeled him several times against the steel wall. Afterwards, he stood in shock at seeing several floors being pushed through the ceiling and into the room they were in by Luffy. He then confronted the young pirate, but was taken aback when Luffy lit the dynamite.

Bear King Vs Luffy

Bear King fighting Luffy.

Bear King then swung a punch at Luffy, but he easily dodged it. Luffy retorted with his Gomu Gomu no Gatling Gun, but Bear King withstood every hit. He then revealed that he ate the Kachi Kachi no Mi, which made his body as hard as stone. The two continued to fight, with Bear King gaining the upper hand. Bear King then activated his Devil Fruit powers and used his Hot Boiling Special attack, which allowed his hands to heat up. Luffy tried to defend himself, only to be burned. Their battle was interrupted when Borodo fired the King Cannon at him. Bear King dodged the cannon and then fired a gunshot towards Borodo. However, Akisu jumped in front of Borodo and took the shot instead. Bear King mocked Akisu for being stupid and pathetic by getting shot. Upon hearing this, Luffy became extremely angered and grabbed onto Bear King's heated arm. Even with the burning pain, Luffy lifted up Bear King and threw him across the room. Bear King got back up and launched the King Cannon at Luffy, who caught and held onto the giant bullet. Luffy then used his Gomu Gomu no Screw with the giant bullet in hand and drilled it straight into Bear King. The impact caused the glass floor to give in, with Bear King falling straight to the bottom of the island's key and center.

Afterwards, the island collapsed and was completely destroyed.[1]

After his defeat, Bear King was depressed for a while, but soon resumed his search for a bride. He set out alone and ended up traveling to the Nanatsu Islands on the Grand Line. At Rokugo Village on Mu Island, he spotted a beautiful woman pirate and immediately wished to marry her. He ran towards the woman and shouted at her to become his bride. However, the moment he made contact with her, he suddenly slipped and hit his head on a nearby rock. Following this, he was brought to the Rokugo Village hospital to recover. While hospitalized, he was discovered by the Straw Hats, who had been asked to look for him by Honey Queen. After the Straw Hats notified Honey Queen of his location, she picked him up and the two left Mu Island.[3]
