   BOTH KID AND KILLER SHOULD HAVE SLIGHT SCOTTISH ACCENTS

   In One Piece, Heat and Wire (Eustass Kid’s loyal crewmates) react to a new person with extreme caution and fierce protectiveness. Because they were once rival gang leaders in the South Blue, they operate under a strict code of trust and view any newcomer as a potential threat to "the boss" (Kid).How They Would React to a New PersonWire (The Silent Enforcer): Wire is taciturn and serious. He would likely stand in the background with his trademark mopish face and arms crossed, sizing the new person up. He relies heavily on intimidation and his spiked gear to keep strangers at a distance.Heat (The Fiery Vanguard): Heat is far more aggressive and vocal. If a stranger approaches, Heat will immediately step in front of Kid and likely breathe a blast of fire (or draw his swords) as a definitive warning.What Happens if the Newcomer is...An Enemy or Spy: They would launch a swift, coordinated, and brutal counterattack. While Kid handles the heavy lifting, Wire would use his trident to trap and slice them, while Heat provides ranged support with his fire breath.A Potential Crewmate: They would remain highly skeptical. The crew was heavily betrayed by Scratchmen Apoo and Basil Hawkins, so trust is a major issue for them. The stranger would have to prove absolute loyalty—or be forced into submission—before Heat and Wire let their guard down.

   The Kid PiratesAlong with their captain, Heat and Wire form the core of the Kid Pirates, a fearsome crew that originated from a lawless island in the South Blue.Heat: Known for his shaggy light-blue hair, Glasgow-style smile, and ability to breathe fire.Wire: Easily recognized by his long, spiky purple hair and large trident weapon.Other Hobbies in the Worst GenerationWhile Heat and Wire's specific hobbies haven't been officially detailed in author Q&As like the others, Eiichiro Oda revealed the bizarre hobbies of the rest of the Worst Generation in SBS Volume 82:Eustass Kid: Listening to music (likely punk) and collecting weapons.Killer: Playing the drums and cooking.

   The Kid Pirates are a notorious rookie pirate crew from the manga and anime series One Piece. Led by the violent and ambitious captain Eustass Kid, they are part of the elite rookie group known as the Worst Generation.Captain and Core CrewEustass "Captain" Kid: The captain hails from the South Blue. He ate the Jiki Jiki no Mi (Magnet-Magnet Fruit), allowing him to control metal and create massive mechanical arms. His high bounty initially surpassed Luffy's due to the high civilian casualties left in his wake.Killer ("Massacre Soldier"): Kid's right-hand man and vice-captain, recognizable by his horned mask and use of scythe-blades.Heat and Wire: Combat officers who help back up Kid and Killer during major conflicts.Crew Size: The crew consists of 31 members total, featuring a heavy metal and punk aesthetic.

   The Kid Pirates are one of the most prominent, ruthless, and tightly-knit crews of the Worst Generation in One Piece, famously known for causing massive civilian casualties and boasting a heavy metal, punk-rock aesthetic. Beneath their bloodthirsty public reputation lies a crew built on deep-seated childhood trauma, fierce isolationism, and an unshakeable fraternal loyalty.Crew Origins & FoundationsAs revealed by Eiichiro Oda in SBS Volume 104, the core of the crew grew up on an isolated, lawless island in the South Blue that lacked World Government protection.The Four Gangs: The island was ruled by four local gangs, led individually by Eustass Kid, Killer, Wire, and Heat.The Shared Tragedy: Despite daily turf wars, they all shared a close bond and a mutual childhood crush on a girl named Victoria Shiruton Doruyanaika. When a malicious rival gang murdered Victoria, the four leaders united out of grief and rage to completely overthrow the island's criminal underworld.Setting Sail: Following their victory, Kid formed the Kid Pirates, naming their ship the Victoria Punk in her honor, with Killer, Wire, and Heat serving as his founding subordinates.Core Internal Dynamics & Relationships1. Eustass Kid & Killer (The Dynamic Duo)The relationship between Captain Kid and his First Mate, Killer, is the emotional anchor of the entire crew. Unlike many pirate hierarchies, they treat each other as absolute equals and brothers.The Voice of Reason: Kid is inherently boisterous, hot-headed, and quick to extreme violence. Killer acts as his level-headed anchor, serving as the sole voice of reason capable of calming Kid down and steering his reckless ambition.Mutual Protection: Their loyalty is absolute. When Killer was captured by Orochi and forced to consume a failed SMILE fruit—turning him into the tragic laughing warrior "Kamazou"—Kid broke out of the Udon Prisoner Mine solely to rescue him, weeping openly at his friend's mental torture.2. The Officers (Heat and Wire)While they rarely steal the spotlight, Heat and Wire hold a profound respect for Kid's leadership. Because they transitioned directly from rival gang leaders to loyal crewmates, their dedication is rooted in history rather than simple fear. They are highly protective of Kid and are willing to fight to the death alongside him against overwhelming entities like Emperors of the Sea.3. Deep Loyalty Beneath an Edgy ExteriorThough the Kid Pirates present themselves as arrogant and aloof, they care for one another deeply. Kid's primary motivation during the Wano Arc was not just defeating Kaido, but ensuring the safety of his missing crew. When Big Mom temporarily knocked Kid unconscious, the entire crew valiantly threw themselves in harm's way to protect his body.

   The Kid Pirates operate with a strict "Us vs. The World" mentality, a psychological trait born from growing up without systemic protection.RelationshipNature of DynamicKey Outcome / ImpactMonkey D. LuffyIntense, bitter rivalryKid views Luffy as his primary roadblock to becoming Pirate King. While they occasionally form grudging alliances (Sabaody, Wano), Kid despises cooperating with him.Trafalgar LawTactical, cynical cooperationNeither trust each other, but their complementary tactical abilities allowed them to successfully awaken their Devil Fruits and defeat Big Mom.Scratchmen Apoo & Basil HawkinsSevere, scarring betrayalKid attempted to build an alliance to take down Shanks. Apoo's malicious insider betrayal to Kaido fractured the alliance and deeply traumatized Kid's worldview.The Anti-Alliance StanceThe betrayal by the On Air and Hawkins pirates permanently closed Kid off from diplomacy. Following Wano, he explicitly stated that he would never trust an outsider again, relying strictly on his tight-knit family of 31 punk-rock crewmates. This fierce, uncompromising isolationism eventually became their tragic undoing when they recklessly challenged Red-Haired Shanks alone at Elbaf without an extended fleet or proper military backing.

   Eustass Kid and Trafalgar Law's dynamic in One Piece often features Kid aggressively teasing or "rage-baiting" Law and the Heart Pirates, pushing Law's buttons through constant bravado, insults, and competing for the spotlight.The Rivalry and DynamicContrasting Personalities: Kid is hot-headed, loud, and aggressive, while Law is cool, calculated, and sarcastic.Constant Bickering: During the Wano Country arc and routine alliances, Kid routinely provokes Law, mocking his plans or calling out his soft spots to get a rise out of him.Mutual Annoyance: Law tries to maintain his dignity as a strategic captain, making his inevitable irritation prime comedic material for fans comparing the two Worst Generation crews. Eustass Kid famously rage-baits Monkey D. Luffy and Trafalgar Law during their departure from Wano, treating the fellow captains like uncool amateurs and underdogs to trigger their massive competitive egos.The Dynamic Between the CaptainsThe Wano Exit Tease: Kid deliberately provokes Luffy and Law by acting superior about their route choices and capabilities.Falling for the Trap: Despite just defeating two Emperors, Luffy and Law immediately take the bait, abandoning their composure to argue like children over who is less scared or more capable.Comedy Gold: The interaction highlights how childish and petty the worst generation's biggest names can be when they are put in the same room.

   The confirmed and estimated heights for the key members of the Kid Pirates reflect their massive, towering builds compared to normal humans in the One Piece world: Eustass Kid stands at 205 cm (6'9"), and Killer stands at 195 cm (6'6). Heat is 7'0". Wire is 8'3".

   Growing up with Eustass Kid means enduring his aggressive bravado, but also being the only person he genuinely trusts outside of Killer. If he falls for you, his deep-seated protective instincts and fierce, possessive loyalty will take over. His rough exterior will remain, but his treatment of you will shift in very specific ways:Fiercely Protective: He is fiercely protective and will not let anyone disrespect or harm you.Viscerally Clingy: He shows physical affection roughly but is incredibly touchy, always wanting to hold your hand or pull you close.Deeply Possessive: He gets insanely jealous of others. He will make it clear to his crew and rivals that you are his.Unwaveringly Devoted: Despite his chaotic and ruthless nature, he prioritizes your well-being and happiness above his own ambitions. He is loyal to a fault, making your safety the cornerstone of his life on the seas.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid and Killer are childhood best friends who grew up in the slums of an anarchic South Blue island. Their unbreakable bond drives them to sail the seas together, but their contrasting personalities—Kid’s explosive, fiery ambition and Killer’s calm, level-headed, and surprisingly empathetic nature—make them one of the most compelling dynamics in One Piece.To explore their unique bond:The Origin Story: Born in a lawless, unnamed country, they originally led rival street gangs along with their friends Heat and Wire. Enraged, Kid united the rival gangs, overthrew the corrupt rulers, and vowed to set out to sea. Eustass Kid's Personality: Kid is ferocious, hot-headed, and relentlessly ambitious. He mirrors Luffy in his desire to become the Pirate King, but approaches it with a more ruthless, callous edge. Despite his aggressive exterior, he is fiercely loyal to his crew, holds a deep respect for Killer, and despises anyone who mocks his friends.Killer's Personality: Known as the "Massacre Soldier", Killer is level-headed and acts as the brain and emotional anchor to Kid's raw power. While equally capable of intense violence, he is highly logical, often keeping Kid from making impulsive decisions or acting recklessly.

   Kid comes off as a rude, vicious, and bloodthirsty pirate, notorious for causing huge amounts of civilian casualties. Whenever he feels like he is being mocked or insulted, even with just a glance, he is quick to resort to violence.[1] In fact, Kid can be so violent that he considers the choice of not immediately killing someone in his direct vicinity an act of gratitude.[20] He also seems to be cruel even when not provoked, crucifying another defeated pirate crew just because he deemed them too weak to roam around in the New World.[21] Kid is overall highly temperamental and has little patience with anyone getting in his way, although he is capable of restraining his anger in certain situations.[22] Kid can also be very petty, having killed countless civilians for merely mocking or laughing at him for his dream of being the Pirate King, killing several pirates in the New World for being weak, and attempting to kill Shanks' fleet solely to goad the Emperor to fight him.

   Kid is bold, cocky, and fearless, known to run into danger regardless of the consequences.[23] This is particularly the case when dealing with people who previously wronged him, at which point Kid will throw all caution to the wind and go straight for revenge.[24] He does not hesitate to challenge even the Four Emperors, having previously fought Kaidou[11] and Shanks[9] and destroyed two ships belonging to Big Mom.[25] Kid rarely backs down from a battle and may fight a powerful enemy until his last breath. The fact that he did not join the Beasts Pirates despite not standing a chance against Kaidou is a testament to Kid's disposition.[12] Kid seems to believe that possessing the determination to achieve the impossible is necessary to survive in the New World, and that anyone who does not is as good as dead.[21]

   Kid is very prideful of his reputation and aims to reach a top spot in the world of piracy, which he plans to achieve by beating the Four Emperors, even if it means dying for it.[26] That said, Kid has no interest in utilizing weapons of mass destruction (although he is curious about their existence) or other tools that could help him achieve those goals, instead just preferring to confront them head-on with his own power.[27] Because of this, he dislikes joining forces with others and sharing his targets with them, thinking that they will just interfere in what should be his fight alone.[28] He also hates being the subject of false rumors that paint him in a negative light, being quick to clarify them if he overhears someone talking about him.[9] Because of his pride, Kid is notorious for being unreasonably stubborn, unwilling to back down no matter how impossible the task is. Despite this stubbornness, Kid has shown moments of maturity, willing to put his pride aside to work with his fellow Worst Generation members in overthrowing the Emperors of the Sea.

   Kid is shown to be quite cynical about the World Government. He is not blind to the way the World Nobles act, remarking that, compared to them, pirates are almost humane in nature and honest about their faults, unlike the Nobles that justify their abuses of power through ancestry.[22] After Camie had been sold in the Human Auctioning House to Rosward Charlos, Kid declared that the whole affair was a "farce"[29] and similarly held a similar point of view regarding the broadcast of the Summit War of Marineford, calling it a "charade".[30] For this reason, he felt amusement and catharsis when Charlos was punched down by an irate Luffy.[31]

   “ You know... On our journey up to this point, we've been laughed at and ridiculed whenever we mentioned getting our hands on the One Piece. And each time that happened, I slaughtered everyone who laughed. But what lies ahead is a sea of death for those who don't got the guts to mention it. Let's meet again in the New World! ” — Kid[32]

   Kid and Luffy display many similarities in terms of attitude. Kid and Luffy display many similarities in terms of attitude.

   Kid has the same dream as Luffy: to find One Piece and become the new Pirate King. Because of this and Luffy's recklessness, he seems to have a great deal of respect for him even if he sometimes has trouble admitting it. However, while both captains often encounter similar problems and obstacles in their paths, Kid prefers to deal with them in his own bloody manner by apparently slaughtering anyone and everyone who ever dared to laugh at his ambition, making him an antithesis to Luffy, who otherwise does not care about what others think of his dreams.[32][14] Surprisingly, belying his rough attitude, Kid can be childishly competitive and will mock his rivals any chance he gets, especially when Luffy and Law are involved.

   Another similarity Kid has to Luffy is a strong degree of affection for his crewmates. Kid will recklessly defend or rescue his subordinates if they are mocked or in danger. His concern for his longtime friend and right-hand man Killer having eaten a SMILE was enough that Kid did not care whatsoever about being captured a second time just a few days after managing to escape his captors.[33] Kid is also rather gluttonous, not minding hard labor as long as he gets access to large amounts of food.[34]

   Unlike Luffy, however, Kid is rather unfriendly and mistrusting of others, rarely leaving his guard down and warning his subordinates to follow suit. The failure of his alliance with the On Air Pirates and Hawkins Pirates, which happened due to the betrayal of Scratchmen Apoo, seems to have reinforced this mindset, as he initially turned down an offer from Luffy to team up with the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance.[20] Kid would eventually change his mind but still acted as a reluctant ally for the most part, only joining forces with Luffy for the sake of their rivalry. However, Kid shows no concern towards his allies or their deaths so long as he gets what he wants. This turns out to be a flaw of Kid, as during his rematch against Shanks and his fleet, Kid approached his fleet without any allies around to help him, and it cost him and his crew their ship and their Road Ponyglyph rubbings because of his pride.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid is a ruthless, fiercely proud, and ambitious pirate. Known for his extreme short temper and violent cruelty, he notably contrasts with Luffy by relentlessly attacking anyone who dares mock his dream of becoming the Pirate King.His personality is defined by several distinct traits:Ruthless & Unforgiving: Kid is notoriously violent and intolerant of weakness. In the ruthless New World, he is known for crucifying other pirate crews just because they were too weak to survive there.Fierce Pride & Ambition: He has an ironclad will and refuses to back down or submit to anyone. He shares a common goal with Luffy of reaching the top, but where Luffy smiles at insults, Kid responds with explosive rage.Deep Loyalty to Crew: Despite his villainous tendencies toward rivals and civilians, he is deeply protective of his first mate, Killer, and the rest of his crew. He strongly despises betrayal or dishonorable tactics.Fearless but Reckless: Driven by a "kill-or-be-killed" mindset, he has no hesitation challenging the most dangerous figures in the world, including Emperors like Big Mom, Kaido, and Shanks.

   "Massacre Soldier" Killer is a complex, pragmatic character. While highly homicidal and enticed by violence like his captain, Eustass Kid, Killer balances him as the crew's calm, level-headed, and intelligent voice of reason. He acts as a diplomat and mediator, contrasting his fierce combat skills.His personality is defined by several key traits:1. The Voice of ReasonDespite his intimidating reputation, Killer is much more pragmatic and observant than his fiery captain. He is known to defuse conflicts, hold more historical knowledge, and handle delicate negotiations for the Kid Pirates.Captain Keeper: He often steps in to stop Kid from starting unnecessary brawls with fellow Supernovas.2. Deep LoyaltyKiller has a long-standing, steadfast bond with Eustass Kid, having known him since childhood. He treats his crew like family and acts as a "big brother" to keep everyone in check.3. The SMILE TragedyThough calm and collected by nature, his demeanor was fundamentally altered by a forced SMILE Devil Fruit.As the assassin "Kamazo," his face became locked in a perpetual grin, robbing him of his ability to express sadness or anger.He was driven to intense rage by his inability to hide his affliction or the mockery it provoked.4. A Mask of MysteryKiller wears a full-head mask and refuses to take it off in front of others—he even eats through it. This eccentricity, paired with his violent reputation and lack of a Devil Fruit, gives him a brooding edge akin to his fellow swordsman, Roronoa Zoro.

   Heat, a prominent member of the Kid Pirates in One Piece, is fiercely loyal to his captain, Eustass Kid. He is characterized by a hardened, no-nonsense attitude, but ultimately exhibits intense desperation and panic when his crew faces total defeat.His personality and traits break down into a few distinct areas:Fierce Loyalty: Heat holds deep respect for Eustass Kid, going so far as to call him "Master Kid" in a show of utmost dedication.Contempt for Weakness: He detests crying, pleading, or showing vulnerability. During the Raid on Onigashima, he mocked Sanji for crying out for help.Hypocrisy in Defeat: Despite his tough exterior, Heat revealed a hypocritical side when he desperately begged Red-Haired Shanks to spare his captain and crew following their devastating loss.Intimidating Abilities: He is known for his unique ability to breathe fire directly from his mouth, although the exact biological or mechanical origin of this power remains a mystery.Strong Will: Like many of the Supernova crewmates, he possesses a strong enough will to withstand basic conqueror's haki

   In One Piece, Wire is a stoic, reserved, and quiet combatant who serves as a core member of Eustass Kid's crew. Unlike the loud and aggressive personalities in the Kid Pirates, Wire rarely speaks or expresses strong outward emotion.Core Personality & TraitsTaciturn and Reserved: Wire is known for being silently assertive. He rarely opens his mouth and generally walks around with a mopey or droopy-eyed expression.Deeply Loyal: Despite his quiet demeanor, he is fiercely loyal to Captain Kid and holds a deep, sympathetic bond with his crewmate Killer.Easily Surprised: Because of his stoic nature, his moments of visible shock are rare and stand out—such as when the crew first encountered the Pacifista at Sabaody.Violent Fighting Style: His quiet personality sharply contrasts with his aggressive combat approach. He fights using a trident and incorporates bladed or barbed wire kicks that match his ruthless combat style.BackstoryBefore becoming a pirate, Wire was a rival king on an unnamed island in the South Blue. He eventually allied with Eustass Kid, Killer, and Heat to seek revenge for the death of Kid's childhood best friend, leading to the formation of the Kid Pirates.

   Killer, the right-hand man of the Kid Pirates, possesses a complex personality. Originally a pragmatic, calm, and level-headed voice of reason who balanced out his captain’s temper, his psyche was altered after being force-fed a SMILE fruit, leaving him with an uncontrollable, tragic compulsion to laugh and smile, no matter the situation.Key Personality TraitsThe Voice of Reason: In contrast to his highly temperamental and reckless captain, Eustass Kid, Killer was traditionally the crew's strategist and diplomat. He often handled alliances and historical research, keeping the crew grounded.Deep Loyalty: He shares an unbreakable, lifelong bond with Kid. His loyalty is so fierce that he willingly subjected himself to torture, became the Shogun's assassin (known as "Kamazo"), and ate the SMILE fruit just to protect Kid’s life.Ruthless Combatant: True to his moniker, the "Massacre Soldier", Killer harbors an extremely violent and homicidal edge. He has no qualms about eliminating anyone standing in his captain's way, channeling a cold, focused demeanor during fights.Tragic Irony (The SMILE Effect): Forced to eat a defective SMILE fruit, Killer was robbed of his ability to show a wide range of emotions. Internally, he retains his sharp, calculating, and loyal self, but outwardly, he is bound by a permanent, forced grin, often crying while being forced to laugh uncontrollably.Surprising Hobbies: Beneath his intimidating helmet, Killer actually enjoys surprisingly domestic and chill hobbies, such as cooking and playing the drums.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid from One Piece is 205 cm tall, which is approximately 6 feet 9 inches Killer from One Piece is 195 cm tall, which is approximately 6 feet 5 inches.

   Kid can be really a bit over the top but he has a fascination with you and making sure no one touches or harms you. He might be a slight brute but he's just confused on his obsession for you. He'll figure it out eventually. He will also pretend to be tough when he first holds you but will start making sure everyone knows you are his.

   Eustass Kid would be fiercely loyal, fiercely protective, and highly unromantic in the traditional sense. His dynamic with a partner would be rough-around-the-edges—full of teasing, cocky smirks, and shared ambitions—rather than soft or overtly mushy.A more detailed look into how he would treat his wife includes:Tough-Love and Mutual Respect: Kid wouldn't treat his wife like a damsel in distress. Because he values strength and determination, he’d expect her to hold her own and wouldn't baby her.Public Aloofness, Private Intimacy: He is not the type for grand, public displays of affection. He’d keep the mushy stuff behind closed doors, opting instead for casual roughhousing, light teasing, and an occasional smirk or casual physical touch in front of his crew.Extreme Protectiveness: Despite his aggressive demeanor, anyone who messed with his wife would face his full wrath. He’d be deeply fiercely loyal and would annihilate anyone who dared to threaten his family.Shared Ambition: He would treat his wife as a true equal in the pirate life. Rather than leaving her behind, he’d want her right by his side, celebrating his victories and working toward the top together.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid has two official hobbies: collecting weapons and listening to music (specifically functioning as a DJ). These passions perfectly align with his Magnet-Magnet Fruit powers and his aggressive, rebellious personality.Hobbies & InterestsCollecting Weapons: Kid is an avid weapon collector. This hobby ties directly into his Devil Fruit, as he constantly scavenges scrap metal, swords, and firearms from battlefields to build his massive mechanical arms, golems, and railguns.DJing: Officially designated by series creator Eiichiro Oda in the One Piece SBS Q&As, Kid enjoys spinning tracks and acting as a DJ, fitting his punk-rock aesthetic and vibrant crew name, the "Victoria Punk".Personality & TriviaBulls: Oda noted that Kid's animal motif is the bull. This reflects his hot-tempered nature, his charging "Punk Corna Dio" attack, and his tendency to charge headfirst into conflict.Least Favorite Food: Kid strongly dislikes Curry Udon, a hatred stemming from his childhood in the South Blue slums. He and his right-hand man, Killer, laughed at a childhood friend for spilling the dish on her shirt, which resulted in a brutal beating.Favorite Foods: He enjoys cabbage and shrimp in garlic oil.

   Heat: The Hot-Headed & Flamboyant ProtectorPersonality: Heat is known for his signature Glasgow smile, shaggy blue hair, and fiery temperament. He is incredibly vocal and fiercely loyal to his boss, Eustass Kid.Reaction to Liking Someone: Heat would be intense, forward, and loud. If someone threatened his crush, he wouldn't hesitate to literally breathe fire to incinerate the threat. He would use his abilities to shield them from the elements, much like he has been known to exhale warm fire to help allies ward off extreme cold.The Catch: He might mask his softer feelings with bravado, teasing the object of his affection while fiercely picking fights with anyone who looks at them the wrong way.⚡

   Wire: The Taciturn & Stoic GuardianPersonality: Wire is a tall, stoic trident-wielding gang boss turned pirate. He rarely shows emotion, keeping a deadpan, droopy-eyed expression at all times.Reaction to Liking Someone: While he wouldn't make a grand, loud declaration, Wire would show his affection through quiet, unyielding support. If things get dangerous, you can expect him to place his hulking body directly in the line of fire to protect them. He would also be the one to offer his thick cloak to shield them from the cold or harsh winds.The Catch: His stoic demeanor might make him appear unbothered, but he is fiercely observant and quietly observant of his crush's well-being.

   In One Piece, Heat and Wire (Eustass Kid’s loyal crewmates) react to a new person with extreme caution and fierce protectiveness. Because they were once rival gang leaders in the South Blue, they operate under a strict code of trust and view any newcomer as a potential threat to "the boss" (Kid).How They Would React to a New PersonWire (The Silent Enforcer): Wire is taciturn and serious. He would likely stand in the background with his trademark mopish face and arms crossed, sizing the new person up. He relies heavily on intimidation and his spiked gear to keep strangers at a distance.Heat (The Fiery Vanguard): Heat is far more aggressive and vocal. If a stranger approaches, Heat will immediately step in front of Kid and likely breathe a blast of fire (or draw his swords) as a definitive warning.What Happens if the Newcomer is...An Enemy or Spy: They would launch a swift, coordinated, and brutal counterattack. While Kid handles the heavy lifting, Wire would use his trident to trap and slice them, while Heat provides ranged support with his fire breath.A Potential Crewmate: They would remain highly skeptical. The crew was heavily betrayed by Scratchmen Apoo and Basil Hawkins, so trust is a major issue for them. The stranger would have to prove absolute loyalty—or be forced into submission—before Heat and Wire let their guard down.

   The Kid PiratesAlong with their captain, Heat and Wire form the core of the Kid Pirates, a fearsome crew that originated from a lawless island in the South Blue.Heat: Known for his shaggy light-blue hair, Glasgow-style smile, and ability to breathe fire.Wire: Easily recognized by his long, spiky purple hair and large trident weapon.Other Hobbies in the Worst GenerationWhile Heat and Wire's specific hobbies haven't been officially detailed in author Q&As like the others, Eiichiro Oda revealed the bizarre hobbies of the rest of the Worst Generation in SBS Volume 82:Eustass Kid: Listening to music (likely punk) and collecting weapons.Killer: Playing the drums and cooking.

   The Kid Pirates are defined by a punk-rock aesthetic, immense hotheadedness, and fierce inner loyalty, contrasting sharply with the more idealistic Straw Hat Pirates. Unlike many rival crews in One Piece, they are childhood friends from the South Blue who function as a tight-knit family wrapped in a terrifying, metal-and-leather exterior.Individual PersonalitiesEustass "Captain" Kid: He is a fiercely arrogant, hot-tempered, and violent leader who refuses to back down from any challenge. He possesses an incredibly fragile ego regarding his dream to become Pirate King, yet possesses deep, protective love for his crew.Killer: Serving as the crew’s vice-captain and voice of reason, Killer is typically level-headed, analytical, and highly observant. He masks his face behind a full-slotted helmet and wields spinning scythe weapons called "Punishers."Heat: A frontline combatant with a zombie-like punk appearance who can breathe fire. He is fiercely intense and entirely dedicated to upholding Kid's fearsome reputation.Wire: A tall, dark-clad member resembling a gargoyle who wields a trident. He is quiet, observant, and acts as steady physical support during chaotic battle situations.Crew DynamicsThe Kid Pirates behave less like coworkers and more like an aggressive, defensive family. Their core dynamics include:The Brains and the Brawn: Killer acts as the buffer between Kid's explosive temper and the outside world. He translates Kid's angry outbursts into actual strategic plans, and Kid genuinely listens to him above all others.Unrivaled Devotion: While other crews break under pressure, the Kid Pirates would gladly die for their captain. When Killer was forced to eat a failed SMILE fruit to save Kid, the entire crew openly wept and adapted to accommodate him.Aggressive External Cruelty vs. Internal Warmth: To outsiders and enemies, they are murderous monsters who leave civilian casualties in their wake. Internally, they share a deep bond rooted in growing up together as orphans in a lawless land.Running GagsRunning GagDescriptionContext / ExampleChildish Rivalry with Luffy & LawKid cannot handle being outshone, leading to stubborn, petty competitions even mid-battle.Refusing to dodge a massive attack from Big Mom simply because Luffy and Law also refused to step out of the way.Killer's Laughing ConditionAfter being forced to eat a SMILE fruit, Killer can only express emotion through a frantic laugh ("Fa-fa-fa").Instead of being dynamic or tragic forever, the crew completely normalized it and laugh right along with him to make him feel comfortable.The "Fa-Fa" Sensitive SpotBefore his SMILE transformation, Killer deeply hated his natural laugh, and would violently beat anyone who mocked it.The crew used to aggressively hunt down anyone who made fun of Killer's laugh.Overestimating Their PowerKid has an unbreakable habit of immediately picking fights with literal Emperors of the Sea with zero preparation.Losing an arm to the Red Hair Pirates, being crushed by Kaido, and immediately challenging Shanks again at Elbaf.

   The Kid Pirates from One Piece are led by the ruthless Eustass Kid and his right-hand man, Killer. Their dynamic is built on deep childhood loyalty, gritty mutual survival, and a punk-rock rejection of the world's false moralities. Unlike more comedic or idealistic crews, they operate like a tight-knit, aggressive street gang turned rogue supernovas.Captain and Vice-Captain DynamicEustass Kid: Fierce, proud, violent, and unyielding.

Killer is the only one who can casually check Kid's temper, and Kid respects Killer above all others.Core Crew PersonalitiesHeat and Wire: Prominent combatants who display fierce loyalty and vocal concern for Kid during intense battles. Heat has a fiery temper (and literal fire-breathing abilities), while Wire uses a large spear and matches the crew's aggressive posture.The Underlings: Subordinates are named after musical themes (like punk and heavy metal). Though most of the 31-man crew remain background fighters, they share a unified, gritty, and haughty attitude.Crew Dynamics and LoyaltyFoundational Trust: After suffering devastating betrayals by Scratchmen Apoo and Basil Hawkins, Kid's inner circle becomes fiercely insular, relying strictly on themselves.Shared Defiance: The crew treats victories and near-death experiences as a collective struggle. They do not follow Kid out of blind awe, but out of shared, hardened resolve against hostile Emperors and the World Government.To better understand their actions in later arcs, here is a quick look at their command structure:MemberRole / PositionCore TraitEustass KidCaptainMagnetic powers, unyielding ambitionKillerCombatant / Vice-CaptainAnalytical, calm counterweightHeatOfficerHot-headed, fire manipulationWireOfficerAggressive spear fighter

He explicitly prefers foods like long noodles that can easily thread through the vertical slits of his signature helmet.Least Favorite Food: Curry udon, for the exact same childhood reason as Kid.Hobbies: Cooking and playing the drums.

   This breakdown explores how Eustass "Captain" Kid and Killer from One Piece get flustered and the psychological reasons behind their reactions.Eustass Kid: The Defensive VolcanoKid gets flustered through explosive anger, aggressive denial, and physical blushing that he tries to mask with threats.How he reacts: He yells, bares his teeth, draws his weapon, or violently changes the subject.Why it happens: Kid's identity is built on absolute dominance, pride, and an untamed ego.The triggers: Genuine praise, unexpected affection, or someone pointing out a hidden soft spot makes him feel vulnerable.The psychology: He views vulnerability as a weakness, so his brain instantly converts embarrassment into defensive rage to regain control.Killer: The Composed ShieldKiller gets flustered through sudden silence, nervous physical tics, and awkward, formal deflections.How he reacts: He pulls his helmet down, shifts his weight, crosses his arms tightly, or speaks in an overly robotic, polite tone.Why it happens: Killer is the rational, emotionally intelligent anchor of the Kid Pirates.The triggers: Being teased about his unique laugh (Faffaffasa), receiving direct personal compliments, or witnessing Kid do something incredibly stupid in public.The psychology: He is deeply self-conscious about his laugh due to past trauma, and he prefers to operate strictly as the cool-headed, dependable partner.How They Fluster Each OtherThe dynamic between the two lifelong friends creates unique moments of mutual embarrassment.Kid's trigger: Killer quietly calling him out on his emotional overreactions or acts of hidden kindness.Killer's trigger: Kid loudly defending Killer's laugh or honor to outsiders, which touches Killer but embarrasses him due to the unwanted attention.

   Eustass Kid: The Defensive TsundereHow he gets flustered: Kid completely shuts down, gets angry, and tries to deflect with aggression. He will aggressively blush, yell, and stomp away rather than face romantic feelings.Why it happens: Kid is driven by pride, dominance, and ego. Romance requires vulnerability, which makes him feel exposed and out of control. Because he cannot "fight" or intimidate a romantic feeling, the lack of control panics him, turning his confusion into hot-headed anger.Killer: The Polite OverthinkerHow he gets flustered: Killer becomes intensely quiet, stiffens up, and overanalyzes the situation. Unlike Kid, he remains polite but will actively hide his face behind his mask to conceal his blushing.Why it happens: Killer is the rational, observant "mother hen" of the Kid Pirates. He is used to managing chaos, not participating in emotional intimacy. Romance introduces social variables he cannot calculate, making him deeply self-conscious—especially regarding his laugh and his face, which he has hidden for years.The Canonical "First Crush" BackstoryOda revealed a specific childhood backstory that perfectly illustrates their dynamic with romance:The Shared Crush: As kids in the South Blue, both Kid and Killer had a crush on a girl named Victoria Shirahiko.The Incident: One day, while they were eating together, Victoria spilled curry sauce all over herself.The Reaction: Kid and Killer burst out laughing at her mess.The Consequence: Victoria was deeply offended and severely beat both of them up.The Trauma: This shared experience linking romance, rejection, and physical violence turned "romance" into a stressful, confusing concept for both of them, cementing Victoria as a bittersweet memory (they even named their ship the Victoria Punk).

   Here is a breakdown of how Eustass Kid and Killer from One Piece handle romance, drawing from their distinct personalities.Eustass KidWhy and How He Gets FlusteredLoss of Control: Kid relies on dominance and power. Romance forces him into an unfamiliar, vulnerable position where he cannot use force to win, causing immediate frustration.Embarrassment as Anger: He masks his confusion with defensive rage. His face flushes red, his veins pop, and he will yell to cover up his racing heartbeat.Pride Damage: He hates looking weak or soft. If someone teases him about his feelings, he will fiercely deny them and stomp away.How He Acts When InterestedPossessive Teasing: Kid shows affection through rough, competitive banter. He will challenge the person to petty competitions just to keep their attention.Aggressive Protection: He becomes hyper-protective. Anyone who disrespects or threatens his interest will face his immediate, terrifying wrath.Awkward Gift-Giving: He will give valuable or strange items (like shiny metal scraps or stolen loot) and demand the person take it without giving an explanation.KillerWhy and How He Gets FlusteredThe Laughing Insecurity: Killer is deeply insecure about his laugh (Faffafa) and keeps his helmet on. Romance requires exposing his true self, which terrifies him.Quiet Overwhelm: Unlike Kid, Killer internalizes his panic. He will freeze up, stutter slightly beneath his mask, or abruptly turn his head away to hide his burning face.Loss of Composure: As the calm tactician of the crew, losing his logical edge around someone makes him incredibly flustered and clumsy with his words.How He Acts When InterestedAttentive Caretaking: Killer expresses love through acts of service. He will quietly cook their favorite meals, brew them tea, or fix their broken belongings.Silent Companionship: He will constantly position himself near the person, acting as a calm, steady shield in dangerous situations.Vulnerability in Private: If he trusts the person completely, he may eventually lift his mask just enough to share a meal or a genuine laugh with them away from the crew's eyes.

   In canon, Heat and Wire are fierce, rough combatants from the Kid Pirates with minimal official romance lore. Based on their tough gang-leader pasts and fierce loyalty, fan interpretation imagines how these hardened fighters handle soft emotions.Why and How They Get FlusteredUnfamiliar Territory: They live in a brutal New World pirate environment where vulnerability equals weakness. Genuine softness or sweet compliments catch them completely off guard.Physical Tells: Heat might accidentally spark a small flame or choke on his own fire-breathing trick when stammering. Wire tends to pull his horned hood lower or freeze completely, losing his usual stoic composure.Overcompensation: If teased or praised, they mask their flustered state by suddenly shifting back to a gruff, loud, or overly defensive attitude before walking away to cool off.How They Act If Interested in SomeoneAction Over Words: Neither of them is poetic. Instead of sweet talk, they show interest through heavy-duty protection and practical gifts (like bringing rare loot, weapons, or food).Hovering from a Distance: They watch their crush’s back during brawls, ready to obliterate anyone who glances the wrong way, yet they act awkward or clumsy if forced to make small talk one-on-one.Stubborn Loyalty: They express affection through fierce devotion, matching the intense loyalty the Kid Pirates show their captain—treating their person of interest as an absolute priority.

   Heat and Wire are elite officers of the Eustass Kid Pirates. Originating as rival South Blue gang bosses before uniting under Kid, Heat functions as a fire-breathing brawler with stitched-up cheeks, while Wire is a taciturn, horn-hooded brute wielding a trident. Their dynamic is built on absolute, unyielding subordination to their captain.Personalities and DynamicsEx-Gang Rivalry Turned Loyalty: Born in an un-governed South Blue island split into four violent districts, Heat and Wire originally led opposing local delinquent groups. After a tragic local execution, Kid forced an alliance, binding the former rivals into fierce, lifelong loyalty.The "Yes-Men" Enforcers: Unlike Killer—who acts as a rational counterweight and childhood confidant to Kid—Heat and Wire exist as intense, hyper-reactive hype men who treat Kid with fanatical reverence.Contrasting Demeanors: Heat is animated, loud, and expressive, whereas Wire is typically silent, stoic, and droopy-eyed—yet both share matching aesthetic motifs like looped golden belts and barbed wire/netting designs.Running GagsHypocritical Toughness: Heat openly criticizes others for showing weakness—infamously calling Sanji pathetic for crying out during the Onigashima raid. However, when the crew faces total annihilation against Red-Haired Shanks, Heat immediately shatters his own tough-guy persona to tearfully beg for mercy.Shocked Exclamations: Whenever Kid takes unexpected damage (like a Pacifista shot to the leg), both Heat and Wire drop their intimidating composure to shriek "Master Kid!" in comedic, wide-eyed terror.The Silent/Loud Contrast: Gag moments often juxtapose Heat’s frantic, hyperventilating panic with Wire’s permanent, unchanging blank stare, even when reacting to the exact same catastrophic event.

As such, they are part of the Worst Generation. Like the Straw Hats, this crew had two bounties above Beli100,000,000. Both members had slightly higher bounties than the respective members of the Straw Hat Pirates before the timeskip. Their captain is Eustass Kid.

   Following the events on Wano, the crew attempted to attack the Red Hair Pirates on Elbaph. However, in the ensuing battle, their captain was defeated by Shanks, and their ship was decimated at sea with the remaining members on it.[2] The current fate of the crew is unknown.

In the background there is the traditional cross-bone pattern plus what seems to represent two knives forming a cross as well. Moreover, on each sides of the skull there are flame-like patterns.

   Like the Whitebeard and Big Mom Pirates, the Kid Pirates possess a secondary, simpler symbol, as seen on Wire's outfit. The Jolly Roger features a smiley with a Glasgow smile. The smiley is surrounded by nine, evenly spaced spikes around the circumference. It may also be a reference to Heat, similar to Killer wearing his own personal Jolly Roger.

   Crew Members See also the associated category: Kid Pirates. The Kid Pirates consist of 31 members in total, with the identities of 22 being known.[3] The most significant aspect of their appearance is that most, if not all of the Kid Pirates have heavy metalesque appearances. Also, many of them seem to wear leather in one way or another. At the auction house, they stated that they might purchase someone who caught their eye. However, it appears that nobody interested them as they never ended up bidding on anyone.[4]

   The Kid Pirates had one known island under their control, which served as their base of operations. At the base of the largest mountain was a castle where Kid, Hawkins, and Apoo formed their alliance. It is unknown what became of the island after the Kid Pirates' defeat.

   Crew Strength The Kid Pirates show their might by decimating a rival crew. The Kid Pirates show their might by decimating a rival crew.

   They are most known for dealing major destruction and civilian casualties along their route through the Grand Line and towards the New World. Furthermore, the entire crew managed to withstand the blast of Haki released by Silvers Rayleigh,[5] a testament to their overall strength. In spite of their great potency in battle and overall level-mindedness, the members of this crew display an innate sense of haughtiness. They, like the other super rookie crews, were able to escape from Kizaru's raid despite being weakened by a Pacifista.

   After the timeskip, it is apparent that their strength and influence have increased, as evidenced by Kid and Killer's bounties being raised and the fact that they were able to establish a base on an island. They had apparently grown in size, as before they were captured by Kaidou, they had a few other ships.[6] The Kid Pirates attempted to form an alliance with the Hawkins and On Air Pirates, however Scratchmen Apoo was actually a member of the Beasts Pirates prior to this alliance, and swiftly sold out Kid and Hawkins to Kaidou, who easily defeated the former and coerced the latter to join him. Due to this betrayal, Kid ceased trying to ally himself with any other crews ever again. However, he did become allies (somewhat reluctantly) with the Straw Hats and Heart Pirates after reuniting with his crew.

   By the time of the war on Onigashima, both Kid and Killer grew in strength to the point their Captain defeated Big Mom with Law's assistance, while getting a massive bounty increase for his efforts. Their reputation were so great that Demalo Black and his crew tried to impersonate them.[7]

   Ship Further information: Victoria Punk Victoria Punk. Victoria Punk.

   The Kid Pirates' flagship is called the Victoria Punk (ヴィクトリアパンク号, Vikutoria Panku-gō?).[8] Their ship continues the theme of heavy metal, with a bizarre skull as part of the deck, resembling some heavy metal bands' stages. Their ship was coated with the Yarukiman resin, allowing it to submerge underwater by reducing its buoyancy, and withstanding the water pressure of 10,000 feet.[9]

   The ship was destroyed by Dorry and Brogy's Hakoku.[2]

   The Kid Pirates had at least one additional ship that was capsized when Kaidou crash landed in the middle of their base after jumping from a sky island.[6]

   Advertisement History Past Kid, Killer, Heat and Wire were gang bosses ruling over an island in the South Blue unaffiliated with the World Government. When Kid and Killer's first crush, Victoria Shiruton Doruyanaika, was murdered by a rival gang Kid unified the four groups to take them down. He then decided to form a pirate crew, as he refused to live in such a narrow world. Their ship was named Victoria Punk, after Victoria.[10] The Kid Pirates were noted to have been responsible for a great deal of damage and had caused many civilian casualties along their journey.[1]

   Summit War Saga Sabaody Archipelago Arc Eventually they reached the Sabaody Archipelago, where they docked and prepared to enter the New World. Subsequently they visited the Human Auction House, where their captain voiced an interest in purchasing a slave, although in the end, they ended up purchasing no one.[4] After Luffy hit Saint Charlos, and the Straw Hats moved into action, they remained at the auction house and witnessed the ensuing chaos. However when Rayleigh appeared, they were subjected to his Haki just like everyone else in the auction room, though every present Kid Pirate easily withstood Rayleigh's Haki.[11] Afterwards, realizing that the Marines were the greatest threat at that time, Kid and the other two captains fought the Marines.[12] Eventually Killer and Heat joined the fray as well, and they soon cut a path through their enemies and managed to escape the Marines.[13] Shortly afterwards they were confronted by a Pacifista which they mistook for Bartholomew Kuma.[14] While struggling to fight it, they once again allied with the Heart Pirates to fight off the Pacifista. The battle was concluded offscreen, but every member survived the fight without any major injury.[15]

   Marineford Arc The Kid Pirates having escaped the Marines were able to stay on the Archipelago a bit longer and were able to watch the Summit War of Marineford, where they witnessed, at a distance, the death of Whitebeard and how Luffy partook the war. They eventually moved onto the New World, where they brutally crucified Haritsu Kendiyo and his crew.[16][17][18]

   During the Timeskip During the timeskip, the Kid Pirates continued to rise in infamy, as evidenced by Kid and Killer's bounties increasing.[19][20]

   Kid also lost his left arm in a battle with the Red Hair Pirates first mate Benn Beckman.[21][22] He later replaced this arm with a large metal one.

   At some point after this, the Kid Pirates went to Big Mom's territory and injured Charlotte Snack, one of Big Mom's Sweet Commanders, as well as plundering a copy of her Road Poneglyph.[23][21][24] However, they were quickly forced to flee afterwards.[25]

   In addition, the crew became powerful enough to establish their own base on an island. They also appear well connected, as they are well aware of dealings within the Underworld.

   A few days before the Straw Hats arrived at Fish-Man Island, Kid sank two ships of Big Mom's Fleet, causing enough damage that the Big Mom Pirates needed a large sum of cash as quickly as possible to recover.[26]

   Advertisement Dressrosa Saga Punk Hazard Arc The Kid Pirates met with the Hawkins and On Air Pirates in their own hideout, though the alliance nearly broke apart due to Kid and Apoo getting into a fight because of a lingering grudge. However, Killer managed to calm things down and remind the various parties of their alliance. The captains agree to the alliance, and the three crews start plans to take down an Emperor.[27]

   Dressrosa Arc After reading the news about Doflamingo's defeat, Kid and Killer dined with Hawkins and Apoo. They learned that Luffy and Law's target is Kaidou and were glad as their intended target is Shanks. Some time later, they were alerted by what seemed to be an earthquake.[28] They quickly investigated the source of the commotion, which was a large crater on the ground in the shape of a human. The alliance then came face-to-face with the Emperor Kaidou.[29]

   Whole Cake Island Saga Zou Arc After the encounter with Kaidou, the crew was separated.[30] Kid was defeated and placed in a cell by Kaidou in Onigashima.[31]

   Wano Country Saga

   The following events are non-canon, and therefore not considered part of the canon story.

   One Piece: Stampede The Kid Pirates were present during the Pirates Festival. Along with other competing pirate crews, they rode a Knock Up Stream in order to try and get the Pirate King's treasure, that being an eternal pose to Laugh Tale. When Douglas Bullet made his appearance, their captain joined the other Supernovas in battle against him but was soundly defeated. They later successfully escaped from the Marines thanks to the Revolutionary Army.[32]

   Concludes non-canon section.

   Advertisement Wano Country Arc Kid was later imprisoned in the Udon region of Wano Country where he met Luffy again when he was placed in a cell next to his. Killer was forced to eat a failed SMILE and later became known as the assassin "Kamazo". According to a Wano newspaper, he was responsible for a street murder on the eighth street in District 2 of the Flower Capital.[33]

   After the chaos at the palace, Kamazo was hired by Kurozumi Orochi to kill the kamuro Toko. He then pursued Toko and Kouzuki Hiyori to the Ringo region, where he came across a confrontation between Roronoa Zoro and Gyukimaru. Zoro then clashed with Killer in order to protect Toko and Hiyori. When Zoro was distracted by Gyukimaru, Killer manages to land a grievous hit on him. However, Zoro was able to take one of his scythes as a result and strike him.[34] After that blow, Killer fell to the ground defeated.[35]

   Later on, for failing to kill Toko, he was sent to the Prisoner Mine at Udon alongside Kid, who previously escaped and got recaptured. Kid questioned him on what Kaidou had done to him and the fate of their crew, but Kamazo could not answer through his laughter and tears. Both were then sentenced by Queen to undergo water torture.[36] However, they were freed when Big Mom went on a rampage. Kid and Killer left Udon and planned to find their other crewmates.[37]

   Before the Fire Festival, Kid managed to find and retrieve his crew. They later joined the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance in their raid on Onigashima.[38] Though they disguised themselves thanks to Kin'emon's ability after arriving at the island, Kid soon got into a brief scuffle with Apoo, exposing himself and Killer. In the ensuing chaos, Kid and Killer got separated from the rest of their crew while fighting several Gifters in Kaidou's castle.[39]

   As the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance began their all-out war on the Beasts Pirates, Kid and Killer were aided by some of the rebels.[40] In preparation for the fight with Kaidou, Kid began using his magnetic powers to collect all the loose metallic objects on his way to the roof. As Kid and Killer reached the third level of the castle, the pile of metal had grown to fill the whole corridor.[41]

   The two later reached the roof, where they were soon joined by Law, Zoro, and Luffy as they prepared to fight against Kaidou and Big Mom.[42] Kid was briefly surprised when he saw Luffy hurt Kaidou. After Law sent the Red Scabbards and Izou to safety, Kid scoffed at the Surgeon of Death for being subservient to Luffy (since Law only acted after Luffy had asked) though Law insisted that he planned to help them either way. When Luffy challenged Kid and Law to a game of chicken in the face of Big Mom's attack, the two initially refused. However, following a small taunt from the Straw Hat captain, the two took up his challenge, with all of them ending up taking the full brunt of the attack. They quickly recovered, and the five members of the Worst Generation took a strike at Kaidou. However, Kaidou transformed into his dragon form and joined Big Mom in the sky, preparing to battle.[43]

   Kaidou used a roar to unleash wind blades at his opponents. Kid's metal golem armor was struck but Kid remained unharmed. With his metal armor, Kid grabbed Kaidou and slammed him into the roof. Later, Big Mom unleashed a lightning storm at the five Supernovas. Kid managed to block some of her thunderbolts but was caught off guard by a lightning homie.[44] After Luffy had pummeled Kaidou with Gomu Gomu no Kong Gatling, Kid and Killer tried to continue on the offensive, but Kaidou stopped them by creating some twisters. Zoro managed to slice through Kaidou's scales, but Kaidou responded by launching wind blades at the five Supernovas.[45]

   Kid and Law work together to remove Big Mom from the battlefield. Kid and Law work together to remove Big Mom from the battlefield.

   Kid and the other Supernovas eventually agreed that they had to split up Big Mom and Kaidou somehow, otherwise they had no chance of winning.[46] After surviving a combined attack from both Emperors thanks to Zoro's effort, Kid and Law elaborated a plan to separate Big Mom's special homies from her person. Kid used his powers to form a metal box so Law could teleport Zeus inside, while Zoro and Killer dealt with Prometheus and Napoleon respectively. Once Big Mom was fully disarmed, Kid shot metal spears at Big Mom, but was punched down into the ground by the Emperor in return. He, however, took the opportunity to grip Big Mom's arm with his own prosthetic arm, allowing him to Repel her up in the sky, from where Law managed to hit her with a boulder, throwing her off Onigashima.[47]

   Once Prometheus and Napoleon left Onigashima to rescue Big Mom, Kid and Killer followed them to the edge of the island. There, Kid noticed something strange happening to the clouds in the sky.[48] It turned out to be Big Mom creating a new homie, Hera, whose power she tested out on Kid and Killer as she headed back to Onigashima on Prometheus. Kid and Killer tried to avoid the way of Big Mom's Fulgora attack but were hit and sent flying back inside the Skull Dome, on the third floor of Kaidou's Castle. Kid and Killer survived with few injuries and noticed that Big Mom was searching for them somewhere in the floor below. Kid ran off after her, but was stopped by Hawkins, his former ally and whom Kid considered a traitor. Killer told Kid to keep going while he stayed behind to keep Hawkins busy, which Kid complied.

   Once Kid reached the second floor, he noticed some of Kaidou's grunts alerting each other about Big Mom's location and headed towards the ruckus.[49] Kid eventually found Big Mom as she was about to strike down Nami, Usopp and Tama, using his Punk Gibson technique to block Big Mom's sword and then slam her down to the floor. Kid told the Straw Hats to leave Big Mom to him, as the latter recovered herself from the attack.

   Shortly afterwards, Law made his way to the site of Kid's fight with Big Mom and proposed a temporary alliance with Kid to hold the Emperor back together.[50] During the fight, Kid struggled to stay on his feet due to mysterious injuries that kept springing up on his body. Unknown to Kid, these injuries were from Killer's attacks on Hawkins, who had linked himself with Kid.[51] They were then surprised by the sudden interruption of Luffy riding a huge pink dragon on his way back to the rooftop.[52] Later, Kid reacted to Luffy's broadcasted declaration to defeat Kaidou.[53] As the fight continued, Kid's pain reappeared, so Big Mom used Hera on Napoleon and was about to attack him, but Law defended Kid. However, the flames of Prometheus hit Law, who fell to the ground. Big Mom attacked the two pirates, injuring them further. Kid was perplexed by what was happening to him and disappointed that he might die pointlessly after finally reaching an Emperor. Once Killer severed Hawkins' link with Kid and defeated the Shinuchi, Kid quickly recovered and continued fighting Big Mom.[54]

   Not finding any progress in causing major damage to Big Mom, Kid convinced Law to try utilizing their awakenings in order to change the tide of the fight. Kid was caught by a lightning blast from Big Mom that sent him back to the Live Floor in a freefall, with the Emperor following after Kid in order to finish him off in midair. Law, however, took the opportunity to activate his awakening and strike Big Mom from behind with Shock Wille, significantly injuring and distracting her long enough for Kid to initiate his own awakening and use Punk Clash to bury the Emperor underneath a multitude of steel beams ripped out from the framework of Kaidou's Castle.[55] This was, however, not sufficient to finish Big Mom off. Now truly angered, the Emperor stole the souls of several of Kaidou's minions in the Live Floor to power up her own special Homies and create new ones from the steel beams that previously crushed her. Having acknowledged Kid and Law's power, Big Mom sacrificed one year from her own lifespan in order to grow in size and power, all while daring the Worst Generation pirates to try and take her down. Not intimidated by Big Mom's new form, Kid declared that he would take the Emperor down no matter the cost.[56]

   Soon thereafter, Big Mom once again regained the upper hand, beating them up while mocking them about their crew's pleas to spare their lives. After Big Mom had punished their crews for pleading to her, she started to make her move towards the roof, viewing their fight as over. This would, however, give Law an advantage, as he was not defeated yet and exploited her ascension towards the roof, coating Kikoku with K-Room and stabbing her from right arm up to her face. He then unleashed Shock Wille onto her again, noticing she could not have been unharmed by this attack before. Right before he was about to be attacked by her newly created steel homies, they were attached towards Kid, who also rose up. After assimilating both the homies and surrounding metal, he confidently told Big Mom that nothing was impervious to damage before charging at Big Mom with Punk Corna Dio, ramming her into a wall. Both then once again assured Big Mom that they would not let her reach the roof, even if they died in the battle.[57]

   Law told Kid to prepare himself as the former would spend his last remaining stamina in a final attack. Kid took the opportunity to attack Big Mom once more, sticking her to one of the Live Floor's towers through his awakening. Big Mom, however, countered his maneuver and summoned a new homie, Misery, to burn Kid down. Kid was able to able to survive the attack and observed as Law pulled his final move. Taking advantage of the hole Law had produced with his awakening, Kid created an enormous railgun and fired a powerful projectile directly on Big Mom's stomach.

   However, this was not enough to finish off Big Mom, who activated her Soul Pocus in order to steal the souls of Kid and Law's crewmates. The technique, however, ended up being ineffective on both captains, who held no fear towards the Emperor. They then proceeded to silence and launch Big Mom out of Onigashima and directly into the crater Law had formed beforehand. With Big Mom falling victim to an explosion down below due to an explosive she accidentally detonated, a massively spent Kid and Law were heavily celebrated by their crews for the win.

   With only Luffy's fight left to finish, Kid waited for the battle to conclude, considering the possibility of Kaidou emerging as the winner. Once Kaidou descended from the rooftop and announced his victory over the Straw Hat captain, Kid lamented the outcome, but also declared that he would not go down without a fight as he prepared himself for combat once more. He was targeted by Kaidou's forces, but his crew protected him.

   Later Kid and Killer rejoiced when Kaidou's defeat was finally confirmed.[58] One week later, Kid and his crew oversaw the repairs of the Victoria Punk, Thousand Sunny and Polar Tang alongside Usopp, Franky and the Heart Pirates at Tokage Port. Apoo then arrived with a newspaper showing Kid's new Beli3,000,000,000 bounty as well as the new members of the Four Emperors. Angry about the contents of the paper, Kid rushed to the Flower Capital to confront Luffy about the news but ended up forced into taking part in the festival's fireworks showcase against his will.[59]

   A few days later, while their crews were loading up cargo at Tokage Port, Kid, Luffy and Law tried to decide between themselves new routes for each of them to follow, with Kid eventually setting for the easternmost path after beating Luffy at straws. Kid also ended up receiving a rubbing of Wano's Road Poneglyph from Law for his decisive role in the raid.With his crew ready to set sail, the Kid Pirates departed from Wano.[60]

   Following the sea route their captain chose back at Wano, the Kid Pirates eventually reached their next destination, Elbaph.[61] Shortly after their arrival, they encountered the Giant Warrior Pirates, the Red Hair Pirates, and the captains allied with Red Hair Pirates, thus prompting the crew to prepare for battle.[62] After Kid attempted to annihilate the attacking ships, Shanks himself abruptly appeared, quickly defeating Kid and Killer in a single attack while knocking out several members with Supreme King Haki. The remaining pirates begged for mercy and offered up their Road Poneglyph rubbings, however Dorry and Brogy then split the Victoria Punk in half, sinking the Kid Pirates.[2] News of their defeat seems to have leaked outside of Elbaph,[63] as the Fake Straw Hat Crew were seen impersonating the Kid Pirates in a G-4 prison cell.[7]

Get lost!" — His go-to line for dismissing minor rivals or enemies."You're coming after me with a weapon like that? Looks like you don't know my abilities." — Pure, mocking confidence before destroying an opponent."You haven't got the guts!" — Taunting anyone who hesitates to face him."Scream as much as you like! I'll silence you!" — Not very nice, but very characteristic of his aggressive flair. Kid Pirates in One Piece is famous for his ruthless, sarcastic, and brutally dismissive attitude.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid is a ruthless, fiercely proud, and ambitious pirate. Known for his extreme short temper and violent cruelty, he notably contrasts with Luffy by relentlessly attacking anyone who dares mock his dream of becoming the Pirate King.His personality is defined by several distinct traits:Ruthless & Unforgiving: Kid is notoriously violent and intolerant of weakness. In the ruthless New World, he is known for crucifying other pirate crews just because they were too weak to survive there.Fierce Pride & Ambition: He has an ironclad will and refuses to back down or submit to anyone. He shares a common goal with Luffy of reaching the top, but where Luffy smiles at insults, Kid responds with explosive rage.Deep Loyalty to Crew: Despite his villainous tendencies toward rivals and civilians, he is deeply protective of his first mate, Killer, and the rest of his crew. He strongly despises betrayal or dishonorable tactics.Fearless but Reckless: Driven by a "kill-or-be-killed" mindset, he has no hesitation challenging the most dangerous figures in the world, including Emperors like Big Mom, Kaido, and Shanks.

   Eustass Kid would be fiercely loyal, fiercely protective, and highly unromantic in the traditional sense. His dynamic with a partner would be rough-around-the-edges—full of teasing, cocky smirks, and shared ambitions—rather than soft or overtly mushy.A more detailed look into how he would treat his wife includes:Tough-Love and Mutual Respect: Kid wouldn't treat his wife like a damsel in distress. Because he values strength and determination, he’d expect her to hold her own and wouldn't baby her.Public Aloofness, Private Intimacy: He is not the type for grand, public displays of affection. He’d keep the mushy stuff behind closed doors, opting instead for casual roughhousing, light teasing, and an occasional smirk or casual physical touch in front of his crew.Extreme Protectiveness: Despite his aggressive demeanor, anyone who messed with his wife would face his full wrath. He’d be deeply fiercely loyal and would annihilate anyone who dared to threaten his family.Shared Ambition: He would treat his wife as a true equal in the pirate life.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid has two official hobbies: collecting weapons and listening to music (specifically functioning as a DJ). These passions perfectly align with his Magnet-Magnet Fruit powers and his aggressive, rebellious personality.Hobbies & InterestsCollecting Weapons: Kid is an avid weapon collector. This hobby ties directly into his Devil Fruit, as he constantly scavenges scrap metal, swords, and firearms from battlefields to build his massive mechanical arms, golems, and railguns.DJing: Officially designated by series creator Eiichiro Oda in the One Piece SBS Q&As, Kid enjoys spinning tracks and acting as a DJ, fitting his punk-rock aesthetic and vibrant crew name, the "Victoria Punk".Personality & TriviaBulls: Oda noted that Kid's animal motif is the bull. This reflects his hot-tempered nature, his charging "Punk Corna Dio" attack, and his tendency to charge headfirst into conflict.Least Favorite Food: Kid strongly dislikes Curry Udon, a hatred stemming from his childhood in the South Blue slums. He and his right-hand man, Killer, laughed at a childhood friend for spilling the dish on her shirt, which resulted in a brutal beating.Favorite Foods: He enjoys cabbage and shrimp in garlic oil.

   Eustass Kid from One Piece is a harsh, violent, and prideful captain, but his core personality reveals an extreme, blazing devotion. If he cared for a lover, he would not handle it softly; he would possess a fierce, destructive loyalty, willing to burn down the entire world for them.The Nature of Kid's DevotionTotal Intensity: Kid does not do things by halves. His emotions are explosive, matching his Devil Fruit powers.Vengeful Protection: Fan and community consensus on platforms like Tumblr highlights that if anyone dared harm his partner, Kid wouldn't just internalize the grief—he would hunt down and obliterate the threat with absolute wrath.Historical Proof: He literally named his flagship, the Victoria Punk, in honor of his first childhood attachment, proving that deep down, his scars and loyalty run permanently.How He Acts Around Loved OnesDenial and Frustration: He hates being vulnerable. Realizing he has fallen for someone would initially anger him because it distracts from his goal of becoming the Pirate King.Rough Affection: He is short-tempered and loud. He would express care through rough banter, glaring protectively, and keeping them close rather than speaking in sweet poetry.Unwavering Trust: Just like his fierce bond with Killer, he expects strength, but he offers absolute, unshakeable backing in return. He stands as a man who goes down fighting for what—and who—is his.

   Eustass Kid would react with a volatile mix of seething jealousy, explosive possessiveness, and instant hostility. Known for his aggressive, no-nonsense personality, he wouldn't let a random flirt slide. Instead, he would immediately step in, assert his dominance, and make it painfully clear that his partner is strictly off-limits.His reaction would unfold in three distinct stages:The Intimidation (The Warning Glare): Kid's short fuse is notorious in the One Piece universe. If someone flirts with his partner, his first instinct is usually a piercing, murderous glare. Even if he doesn't immediately draw his weapons, he will channel his intimidating presence—and likely his Conqueror's Haki—to make the offending stranger back off instantly.The Claim: Kid has a fiercely possessive streak. He will quickly close the distance between you and the stranger, wrapping a heavy arm around your waist or pulling you flush against his chest. He won't just stare; he'll use his towering, heavily built frame to form a physical barrier, treating the stranger as an annoyance he can swat away.The "Boss" Flex: Depending on where you are, he'll loudly and sarcastically mock the stranger, making sure the flirt knows they are severely out of their league. Any arrogant flirting directed at his partner will be met with his trademark harsh, mocking laughter.Behind closed doors, however, his reaction shifts drastically. While he puts on a tough front to the world, his pride means he can get surprisingly bashful and easily flustered when he has you all to himself. He might grumble or act overly bossy to cover up his embarrassment, but he will quietly make sure you reaffirm your commitment to him.

   Eustass Kid would be fiercely loyal, fiercely protective, and highly unromantic in the traditional sense.

Because he values strength and determination, he’d expect her to hold her own and wouldn't baby her.Public Aloofness, Private Intimacy: He is not the type for grand, public displays of affection. He’d keep the mushy stuff behind closed doors, opting instead for casual roughhousing, light teasing, and an occasional smirk or casual physical touch in front of his crew.Extreme Protectiveness: Despite his aggressive demeanor, anyone who messed with his wife would face his full wrath. He’d be deeply fiercely loyal and would annihilate anyone who dared to threaten his family.Shared Ambition: He would treat his wife as a true equal in the pirate life. Rather than leaving her behind, he’d want her right by his side, celebrating his victories and working toward the top together.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid has two official hobbies: collecting weapons and listening to music (specifically functioning as a DJ). These passions perfectly align with his Magnet-Magnet Fruit powers and his aggressive, rebellious personality.Hobbies & InterestsCollecting Weapons: Kid is an avid weapon collector. This hobby ties directly into his Devil Fruit, as he constantly scavenges scrap metal, swords, and firearms from battlefields to build his massive mechanical arms, golems, and railguns.DJing: Officially designated by series creator Eiichiro Oda in the One Piece SBS Q&As, Kid enjoys spinning tracks and acting as a DJ, fitting his punk-rock aesthetic and vibrant crew name, the "Victoria Punk".Personality & TriviaBulls: Oda noted that Kid's animal motif is the bull. This reflects his hot-tempered nature, his charging "Punk Corna Dio" attack, and his tendency to charge headfirst into conflict.Least Favorite Food: Kid strongly dislikes Curry Udon, a hatred stemming from his childhood in the South Blue slums. He and his right-hand man, Killer, laughed at a childhood friend for spilling the dish on her shirt, which resulted in a brutal beating.Favorite Foods: He enjoys cabbage and shrimp in garlic oil.

   Eustass Kid would treat his lover with a fierce, possessive, and surprisingly devoted loyalty, balancing brutal, rough passion with moments of private, unguarded tenderness.

He constantly needs to be touching them—holding them close, playing with their hair, or pulling them near.Intense Jealousy: Kid does not tolerate any disloyalty or people getting too comfortable with others. He demands complete devotion, and he is prone to petty jealousy or throwing the silent treatment when he feels ignored, but he balances this with a readiness to do whatever his partner asks if they play their cards right.Rough and Primal Passion: His romantic and intimate life is strongly influenced by his intense, sometimes volatile personality. His interactions often border on the rough and primal, driven by his natural dominance and occasional jealousy.Unwavering Protection: Much like his dedication to his childhood comrade and trusted partner, Killer, Kid would die for his crewmates and those he loves. He will go to great lengths to ensure his lover's safety in a dangerous world, keeping them out of harm's way even if it means keeping them close by his side at all times.

He balances his explosive temper and ruthless ambition with a deeply private, gentle devotion that he only shows his partner.Here is what it looks like to be married to the infamous Supernova:Quiet Devotion: He rarely acts like a lovesick puppy in public and hates being teased about his affection, but his mind is never far from his spouse. He flaunts his partner with pride and holds hands privately to soothe his restless energy.The "Soft" Spot: Because he is so used to guarding everyone else on his ship, he accepts—and even secretly enjoys—being fussed over, whether it is running fingers through his hair or fixing his rugged clothes.Equal Partnership: He respects a strong partner.

His Kid Pirates crew would react with total shock initially, followed by intense teasing, and finally, fierce, brotherly support for his partner.How the Crew Reacts1.

Heat and Wire (The Loyal Combatants)The Reaction: Total astonishment. Because Kid is normally so volatile and quick to resort to violence against outsiders, seeing him domesticate would cause a comical panic within the top ranks of the crew.The Dynamic: Once they get over the shock, they would view the spouse as family, fiercely guarding them during battles just as they do their Captain.3. The Rest of the Kid PiratesThe Reaction: They would constantly tease their boss, finding immense joy in seeing his usually stoic and angry face turn red when flustered.The Dynamic: They would adopt the spouse like a mascot, perhaps even sneaking them extra helpings of food on the Victoria Punk while gossiping about their Captain's love life.The Husband PersonaAggressive Devotion: He isn't the type to write poetry. Instead, he would show love by bringing back rare, stolen treasures and personally destroying anyone who dares to insult or threaten his partner.Stubborn Communication: He is deeply sensitive to his partner's feelings but terrible at expressing them. He would likely tell his spouse "I told you not to fall in love with me," while holding them as close as possible.Highly Possessive: He takes the safety of his partner personally and won't let them lift a finger if he can help it.

   As a husband, Eustass "Captain" Kid is fiercely devoted and fiercely protective, though he masking his affection with grumbles and a tough exterior.

His ears and neck will turn dark, and he'll instinctively try to look away or scoff.Defensive Laughter: Instead of melting into a puddle, his immediate reflex when flustered is to throw his head back and laugh it off with a loud "Hah?!" or mumble a quick, defensive retort.The Sputtering Captain: When you catch him entirely off guard with sudden, genuine praise, the "Captain" persona shatters for a brief second. He'll sputter, lose his train of thought, and his face will flame bright red. He won't know whether to yell or get even more flustered.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid as a husband would be intense, protective, and surprisingly domestic behind closed doors. While he maintains a ruthless, bloodthirsty reputation, his crew would mercilessly tease him for becoming a soft, flustered mess around his spouse.The "Softie" HusbandOverprotective & Clingy: He would absolutely demand that his spouse wear his heavy fur coat in the cold or hold hands even when it risks his intimidating image.Secretly Domestic: He would use his Magnet-Magnet powers to secretly forge little metal trinkets or jewelry as surprise gifts.Prone to Blushing: He tries to act cool, but if his spouse praises him or plays with his messy red hair, he turns bright red and barks at them to stop.How the Crew Teases HimKiller's Smug Looks: His right-hand man, Killer, is the only one who can get away with it. Killer would constantly make dry, sarcastic remarks about Kid's "soft" behavior. When Kid gets too flustered around his spouse, Killer will just cross his arms and remind the Captain that they have an entire fleet to manage.The Iron Fidget Toy: Because Kid’s magnetic abilities cause his skin to naturally conduct his emotions, the crew notices when his chest is burning up. They regularly joke about him being a glorified "fidget toy" for his spouse.Fake Salutes: If Kid is seen helping his spouse with mundane things like carrying groceries or doing chores, the rest of the crew (like Heat and Wire) will suddenly stop and give him exaggerated military salutes.Mocking His Tough Guy Persona: Whenever Kid barks orders at the crew to look intimidating, his mates will openly retaliate by asking, "Who are you trying to scare, Captain? Should we ask your spouse for permission?"Fan & Community ConsensusLoyalty Above All: Across platforms like Reddit, fans agree that despite his abrasive, edgy exterior, Kid fiercely loves and cares about his crew.

   Kid comes off as a rude, vicious, and bloodthirsty pirate, notorious for causing huge amounts of civilian casualties. Whenever he feels like he is being mocked or insulted, even with just a glance, he is quick to resort to violence.[1] In fact, Kid can be so violent that he considers the choice of not immediately killing someone in his direct vicinity an act of gratitude.[20] He also seems to be cruel even when not provoked, crucifying another defeated pirate crew just because he deemed them too weak to roam around in the New World.[21] Kid is overall highly temperamental and has little patience with anyone getting in his way, although he is capable of restraining his anger in certain situations.[22] Kid can also be very petty, having killed countless civilians for merely mocking or laughing at him for his dream of being the Pirate King, killing several pirates in the New World for being weak, and attempting to kill Shanks' fleet solely to goad the Emperor to fight him.

   Kid is bold, cocky, and fearless, known to run into danger regardless of the consequences.[23] This is particularly the case when dealing with people who previously wronged him, at which point Kid will throw all caution to the wind and go straight for revenge.[24] He does not hesitate to challenge even the Four Emperors, having previously fought Kaidou[11] and Shanks[9] and destroyed two ships belonging to Big Mom.[25] Kid rarely backs down from a battle and may fight a powerful enemy until his last breath. The fact that he did not join the Beasts Pirates despite not standing a chance against Kaidou is a testament to Kid's disposition.[12] Kid seems to believe that possessing the determination to achieve the impossible is necessary to survive in the New World, and that anyone who does not is as good as dead.[21]

   Kid is very prideful of his reputation and aims to reach a top spot in the world of piracy, which he plans to achieve by beating the Four Emperors, even if it means dying for it.[26] That said, Kid has no interest in utilizing weapons of mass destruction (although he is curious about their existence) or other tools that could help him achieve those goals, instead just preferring to confront them head-on with his own power.[27] Because of this, he dislikes joining forces with others and sharing his targets with them, thinking that they will just interfere in what should be his fight alone.[28] He also hates being the subject of false rumors that paint him in a negative light, being quick to clarify them if he overhears someone talking about him.[9] Because of his pride, Kid is notorious for being unreasonably stubborn, unwilling to back down no matter how impossible the task is. Despite this stubbornness, Kid has shown moments of maturity, willing to put his pride aside to work with his fellow Worst Generation members in overthrowing the Emperors of the Sea.

   Kid can be really a bit over the top but he has a fascination with you and making sure no one touches or harms you. He might be a slight brute but he's just confused on his obsession for you. He'll figure it out eventually. He will also pretend to be tough when he first holds you but will start making sure everyone knows you are his.

Known for his extreme short temper and violent cruelty, he notably contrasts with Luffy by relentlessly attacking anyone who dares mock his dream of becoming the Pirate King.His personality is defined by several distinct traits:Ruthless & Unforgiving: Kid is notoriously violent and intolerant of weakness. In the ruthless New World, he is known for crucifying other pirate crews just because they were too weak to survive there.Fierce Pride & Ambition: He has an ironclad will and refuses to back down or submit to anyone. He shares a common goal with Luffy of reaching the top, but where Luffy smiles at insults, Kid responds with explosive rage.Deep Loyalty to Crew: Despite his villainous tendencies toward rivals and civilians, he is deeply protective of his first mate, Killer, and the rest of his crew. He strongly despises betrayal or dishonorable tactics.Fearless but Reckless: Driven by a "kill-or-be-killed" mindset, he has no hesitation challenging the most dangerous figures in the world, including Emperors like Big Mom, Kaido, and Shanks.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid[7] is a notorious pirate from the South Blue and the captain of the Kid Pirates.[1] He is one of twelve pirates who are referred to as the "Worst Generation".[8]

   Kid first appeared at the Sabaody Archipelago at the same time Monkey D. Luffy and his crew arrived. Both were described as members of the "Eleven Supernovas", pirates who had congregated on the island who all had a bounty of more than Beli100,000,000. After briefly fighting alongside Luffy while escaping an attack by the Marines, he fled the archipelago and would later spectate the Summit War of Marineford alongside the other Supernovas.

   During Luffy's two years of training, Kid challenged one of the Four Emperors, Shanks, but lost one of his arms to Benn Beckman in the process.[9] He attempted to form an alliance with the On Air Pirates and Hawkins Pirates to challenge the Red Hair Pirates once more, but the alliance fell apart after an attack from another Emperor, Kaidou,[10][11][12] which led to his imprisonment at Wano Country where he would eventually reunite with Luffy. Though nominally acting in self-interest towards vengeance and glory, Kid's assistance towards the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance was instrumental in defeating Kaidou, Big Mom and the Beasts Pirates.

   After leaving Wano, Kid and his crew arrived at Elbaph and decided to challenge Shanks once more. However, the entire crew and their ship were decimated by Shanks and his allies, Dorry and Brogy.[13]

   Kid was originally introduced with a bounty of Beli315,000,000, largely due to a high number of civilian casualties caused by him and his crew, thus exceeding Luffy's when they first arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago.[14] Sometime during the timeskip, his bounty was raised from 315,000,000 to Beli470,000,000.[6] Kid's bounty was eventually raised to Beli3,000,000,000 for his role in defeating Big Mom of the Four Emperors alongside Trafalgar Law during the Raid on Onigashima.

   Due to his actions, Kid can be considered a minor ally during the Sabaody Archipelago Arc as well as a major ally during the Wano Country Arc.

   Advertisement Appearance Kid is a tall, muscular man with light skin and short, spiky, bright red hair, resembling flames. His nose has a particular shape, being quite pointed and having little protrusions on both sides. He has dark reddish, purple-colored lips, orange eyes (red in the manga), no eyebrows, and his fingernails are painted black.

   He dresses in an extravagant attire consisting of black and yellow lizard-print pants with a red fringe, motorcycle boots, and a blue sash under a green belt fastened by a large circular buckle with a four-leaf clover-like pattern in the middle. He also has a slim bandolier, also with minuscule bolts that go diagonally over his right shoulder and then tie to his waist, where he keeps a dagger with a Japanese-style hilt and what appears to be a flintlock gun. He also has gold bangles around both wrists.

   He wears a pair of studded, square-shaped yellow goggles with purple lenses on his forehead and a large fur captain's coat over his bare muscular torso. The dark brown coat is adorned with spikes on its shoulders lined in maroon. The collar of the coat is extremely flared and wide. He typically wears this coat with his right arm in its sleeve and his left arm under the coat itself.[1]

   In SBS Volume 64, Oda drew the Supernovas as children. Kid is shown with spikier and more spread-out hair, similar to a lion's mane. He also wore larger and rounder goggles and did not have dark lips. He was depicted tinkering with a toy robot with a wrench. His blue sleeveless shirt, like his yellow striped pants, has a sewn patch.[15]

   After the timeskip, he is shown with slightly longer hair that appears to be pushed back. He also has a large scar that drags from the left side of his forehead and goes down his neck and another smaller one that goes through his left eye. There are two parallel scars on his lower right arm and another big one on his stomach. He lost his left arm to just above the elbow during the two-year timeskip in a battle against the Red Hair Pirates, first mate, Benn Beckman,[9][16] and until his imprisonment by the Beasts Pirates, he replaced it with a mechanical one that is somehow connected to his nervous system, shown by the presence of several metallic wires embedded directly into his skin. The mechanical arm was damaged in his fight against Kaidou and later stripped from him to disarm him and put him at a further disadvantage if he rebelled against his captor. His attire consists of his trademark spotted pants and a black open vest, held down by a belted war kilt. He also has a long dark red coat, worn over his shoulders. He appears to have become more muscular and also has scars on his right forearm, left pectoral, and on the left side of his abdomen. He no longer wears any impractical jewelry.[6]

   During the Raid on Onigashima, he assembled a new mechanical arm.[17] It was later temporarily severed due to Hawkins' damage transfer,[18] but was ultimately repaired.[19]

Despite this stubbornness, Kid has shown moments of maturity, willing to put his pride aside to work with his fellow Worst Generation members in overthrowing the Emperors of the Sea.

   Kid is shown to be quite cynical about the World Government. He is not blind to the way the World Nobles act, remarking that, compared to them, pirates are almost humane in nature and honest about their faults, unlike the Nobles that justify their abuses of power through ancestry.[22] After Camie had been sold in the Human Auctioning House to Rosward Charlos, Kid declared that the whole affair was a "farce"[29] and similarly held a similar point of view regarding the broadcast of the Summit War of Marineford, calling it a "charade".[30] For this reason, he felt amusement and catharsis when Charlos was punched down by an irate Luffy.[31]

   “ You know… On our journey up to this point, we've been laughed at and ridiculed whenever we mentioned getting our hands on the One Piece. And each time that happened, I slaughtered everyone who laughed. But what lies ahead is a sea of death for those who don't got the guts to mention it. Let's meet again in the New World! ” — Kid[32]

   Kid and Luffy display many similarities in terms of attitude. Kid and Luffy display many similarities in terms of attitude.

   Kid has the same dream as Luffy: to find One Piece and become the new Pirate King. Because of this and Luffy's recklessness, he seems to have a great deal of respect for him even if he sometimes has trouble admitting it. However, while both captains often encounter similar problems and obstacles in their paths, Kid prefers to deal with them in his own bloody manner by apparently slaughtering anyone and everyone who ever dared to laugh at his ambition, making him an antithesis to Luffy, who otherwise does not care about what others think of his dreams.[32][14] Surprisingly, belying his rough attitude, Kid can be childishly competitive and will mock his rivals any chance he gets, especially when Luffy and Law are involved.

   Another similarity Kid has to Luffy is a strong degree of affection for his crewmates. Kid will recklessly defend or rescue his subordinates if they are mocked or in danger. His concern for his longtime friend and right-hand man Killer having eaten a SMILE was enough that Kid did not care whatsoever about being captured a second time just a few days after managing to escape his captors.[33] Kid is also rather gluttonous, not minding hard labor as long as he gets access to large amounts of food.[34]

   Unlike Luffy, however, Kid is rather unfriendly and mistrusting of others, rarely leaving his guard down and warning his subordinates to follow suit. The failure of his alliance with the On Air Pirates and Hawkins Pirates, which happened due to the betrayal of Scratchmen Apoo, seems to have reinforced this mindset, as he initially turned down an offer from Luffy to team up with the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance.[20] Kid would eventually change his mind but still acted as a reluctant ally for the most part, only joining forces with Luffy for the sake of their rivalry. However, Kid shows no concern towards his allies or their deaths so long as he gets what he wants. This turns out to be a flaw of Kid, as during his rematch against Shanks and his fleet, Kid approached his fleet without any allies around to help him, and it cost him and his crew their ship and their Road Ponyglyph rubbings because of his pride.

   Advertisement Relationships Crew Kid seems to have a good relationship with his crewmembers that have been revealed. Killer keeps his captain calm when he gets angered. Wire and Heat hold high respect and concern for their captain. According to Basil Hawkins, Kid's crew was forced to work under the Kurozumi Family and the Beasts Pirates, with the life of their captain being used as a bargaining chip.[12]

   After becoming Kaidou's prisoner, Kid was noticeably worried about what had happened to his crew and tried looking for them around the first time he escaped from the Prisoner Mine at Udon.[33] Once he was freed for the second time thanks to Luffy's efforts, he still prioritized finding the rest of his crewmates and stated that he would only trust them from now on, as a result of Apoo and Hawkins' betrayal.

   During the raid on Onigashima, Kid's crew valiantly attempted to stand against Big Mom when the latter had seemingly managed to knock out their captain, although Kid eventually managed to recover and counterattack, to their delight. They also tearfully celebrated their boss's win against Big Mom and kept loyally protecting him even when it seemed like Kaidou had gained the upper hand over the alliance.

   Killer Both Kid and Killer grew up together, so they share a close bond that goes back to childhood.[35] Kid refers to Killer as his partner and is aware that the latter is sensitive about his own strange laugh, which is why, despite being unaware about Killer having eaten a defective SMILE, he knew something was wrong with his subordinate. This was enough for Kid to attempt a reckless rescue of his friend, which led to his second capture from the Beasts Pirates after managing to escape the first time.[33]

   Killer has displayed immense loyalty for Kid multiple times; it was due to Kid's life being in danger that Killer ate a defective SMILE fruit and became a subordinate of Kurozumi Orochi, showcasing extreme loyalty for Kid.[36] Another notable instance of this happened during the war against the Beasts Pirates at Onigashima, when Hawkins managed to link his life to Kid's, which forced Killer on the defensive so he would not accidentally kill his captain, even begging Hawkins to take his life instead as long as he left Kid's alone.

   Killer usually acts as the voice of reason for his captain, making sure Kid stays focused and does not lose sight of his goals due to impulsiveness.[10] Killer also provides Kid with useful information whenever the latter displays curiosity in a certain topic.[21]

   Advertisement Rivals As a member of the Worst Generation, he sees the other Beli100,000,000+ bounty rookies he encountered in the Sabaody Archipelago as his rivals, specifically Law and Luffy.[32]

   Kid sees Luffy as a prominent rival for the mantle of the next Pirate King, once declaring that they would become enemies in the New World.[32] After the Whitebeard War, he stated that he was not generous enough to let Luffy run around as he pleased, showing intent to compete with him for notoriety and not get left behind. Regardless, Luffy has earned Kid's interest with his actions against the World Government prior to their first meeting, with Kid coming to respect Luffy for assaulting a World Noble and being the only Supernova to join the war, which he admitted was enough to put Luffy at the forefront of the other super rookies. After the timeskip, he expressed amusement when watching Luffy's capture on Punk Hazard and, later, demonstrated great curiosity about the Luffy-Law alliance and their goals.[6]

   Kid and Luffy team up against Dobon. Kid and Luffy team up against Dobon.

   After meeting again in a prison in Wano Country, Kid and Luffy became competitive with each other and would argue about who had done more slave work. Despite this rivalry, they cooperated to defeat the deputy warden Dobon after he had confronted and tried to punish them for taking most of the prison's rations.[34] Luffy also showed some concern for Kid when Queen threatened to drown him. After he had been freed, Luffy offered an alliance to take down Kaidou, but Kid initially rejected the offer, as he still felt bitter about being betrayed during his previous alliance with Apoo and Hawkins. However, he joined Luffy and Law in the battle against the Beasts Pirates, not wanting Luffy to get all the glory in defeating Kaidou. Afterwards, despite his bounty increase, Kid's rivalry and general resentment with Luffy remained strong, with him angrily threatening Luffy with death for the latter's new spot in the Four Emperors.[38] When leaving Wano, Kid provoked Luffy into racing him down at the waterfall.

   Despite frequent denials about viewing Luffy as an ally,[39] Kid seemingly trusts the Straw Hat captain's strength. While battling Big Mom by his lone self, Kid was visibly pleased upon learning that Luffy, even while knocked out, would not give up until he won against Kaidou, in spite of previous announcements that claimed he had died in combat against the Emperor. Kid did appear to lose hope briefly when Luffy's death was claimed a second time and Kaidou descended upon him and the rest of the alliance but was resolute to keep fighting until the end anyway.

   Kid calls Luffy "stupid monkey," while Luffy calls Kid "Jaggy" (ギザ男, Giza-o?).

   Advertisement Trafalgar D. Water Law “ ...I've heard rumors about him, and they weren't pleasant. His manners aren't too good either... ” — Kid about Law.[40]

   In the manga, Law gave Kid the finger when he (presumably) overheard Kid talking behind his back regarding rumors of how Law's manners appear to be rather lacking.[22] Later on, when Kid volunteered to deal with the Marines amassing outside of the Auctioning House as a farewell gift to the Straw Hats and the Heart Pirates, both Law and Luffy took Kid's cockiness as an insult and opted to follow him outside in order to compete with the fellow super rookie. When Kid insisted that he alone would be sufficient enough for the task and ordered the other two to step down, Law was the first to retaliate by threatening Kid should the latter attempt to order him around. Nevertheless, Law sided once again with Kid after the two crews had been confronted by a Pacifista.

   Kid seems to have retained an interest in Law in the New World and was pleased to see that the surgeon was planning something instead of acting like a "Government Dog," further confirmed by his major interest in the Luffy-Law alliance. Later on, he teamed up with Law during the Fire Festival, though they were still prone to arguing with each other.[41] Kid seems to like mocking Law for his alliance with Luffy, especially since Law often follows Luffy's words.[42] That said, he is annoyed when Law attempts to do the same to him by telling him what to do.

   During the events of the Wano Country Arc, they teamed up together once more during the fight against Kaidou and Big Mom, even forming a brief alliance to take down the latter by herself. Despite Kid's protests about Law seemingly getting in his way and their general bickering over trivial things, he was able to work alongside the Surgeon of Death to defeat the Emperor. After Kaidou and Big Mom's downfalls, Law gives Kid another copy of the Road Poneglyph for helping him and Luffy to defeat Kaidou and Big Mom. While leaving Wano, Kid provoked Law into racing down at the waterfall.

   Enemies World Government “ World Nobles... Slaves... Human shops... Against the "purity" of these "upper classes", the villains of the world look positively humane in comparison. It's because the world's in the hands of scum like them that it's all screwed to hell... I mean, we're not the nicest of guys, but at least we're honest about it. ” — Kid, commenting on the World Nobles.[43]

   As a pirate with a tremendously high bounty, Kid is a major enemy of the Marines. Before the timeskip, his strict behavior against innocent civilians earned him a high bounty, enough to topple Luffy's, who had taken down key assets of the World Government beforehand.[14] He, along with Trafalgar Law and Monkey D. Luffy, fought against many marine units at the Sabaody Archipelago, with their combined being acknowledged by many of the infantrymen there.

   Kid also despises the World Nobles and their actions, finding the notion that they can just own whoever they wanted due to their untouchable status as "farce". Apparently, Kid became a pirate himself with the intent of rebelling against what he considered the "scum" who ruled the world.[3] Luffy showing up and punching Charlos in the face at the Human Auctioning House was met with much amusement from his part for that reason.

   Advertisement Four Emperors According to Killer and Hawkins, Kid aims to hunt down the Four Emperors.[26] Kid has confronted many of them during his career, with varying degrees of success. After the events of the raid on Onigashima, Kid seemingly expected to become an Emperor himself, and was furious to find out he had been snubbed of the position despite his role in taking down Big Mom, overlooking the fact he needed Laws assistance to win.[5]

   Shanks No direct interaction has been shown between the two, but Kid formed an alliance with fellow captains Basil Hawkins and Scratchmen Apoo to overthrow the Emperor, Red-Haired Shanks. Kid also confirmed that he had lost his arm in an encounter with the Red Hair Pirates.[9][16]

   When Kid was later confronted into a battle with Shanks on Elbaph, he was excited at the possibility of battling Shanks for revenge for his prior loss despite the high probability of dying in the process, not showing any fear of losing.[44] When he is forced to face off against Shanks' subordinate crew, Kid tries to destroy them all with his railgun, but he is instantly defeated by Shanks himself, who foresaw how catastrophic Kid's attack would be. Afterwards, Shanks' friends Dorry and Brogy destroyed his ship, knocking him and his entire crew into the sea and took his Poneglyph rubbings for himself.[13]

   Charlotte Linlin “ You think the last gasps... of an old windbag scares me?! ” — Kid to Big Mom when he is immune to Soul Pocus.[45]

   During the timeskip, Kid invaded Totto Land and injured one of Big Mom's Sweet Commanders before stealing a Poneglyph rubbing from the Emperor. He later sank two of the Emperor's ships while having no concern if she retaliated. Despite this hostility, Kid stated to Caribou that he had no interest in going after Big Mom.

   Kid met Big Mom again at Onigashima, with Kid taking part in the group that faced the duo of Kaidou and Big Mom at the top of the Skull Dome. Kid was one of the Supernovas responsible for pushing Big Mom out of the Skull Dome's rooftop, which caused her to nearly drown in Wano Country's sea. When Big Mom made her way back into Onigashima, she specifically targeted Kid with her new homie Hera and angrily called out for him to reveal himself to her, still visibly furious about the stunt he had pulled that almost killed her.[46] Kid, however, was not intimidated by her surprising return and kept hunting her down, intent on not letting her rejoin Kaidou. Kid somewhat regained his interest in taking down Big Mom just to get a lot of fame. Kid declared to Big Mom that she is a nuisance when there is no place for her in the new era, in addition to calling her an "old-time pirate," much to Big Mom's rage.

   Big Mom seemingly did not take Kid seriously until he and Law managed to severely injure her. The resulting damage was enough to impress the Emperor, who then started to acknowledge their threat, even going as far as sacrificing some of her own life to gain additional power so she could crush the two. In the end, however, Big Mom's efforts were still not enough to take down Kid and Law, who both showed no fear at all towards her status as one of the Emperors, meaning they were immune to her Soul Pocus as well, and Kid even called Big Mom an "old hag." Once Kid and Law managed to launch her down into a crater with the help of an explosive she accidentally detonated, Big Mom, confident that she would not die, swore that they would pay.

   Advertisement Kaidou Kid encountered Kaidou when the latter fell out of the sky and landed at the Kid Pirates' hideout before coming face to face with the rookie pirate. Kid refused to submit to Kaidou and tried to fight him only to be defeated and captured. Kaidou then imprisoned Kid, hoping to eventually break his spirit and turn him into a soldier for the Beasts.

   During his imprisonment, Kid was shown to hold a strong grudge against Kaidou and firmly told Luffy that he would be the one to defeat the Emperor.[9] However, after seeing what happened to Killer, Kid decided to prioritize finding the rest of his crew and rejected Luffy's offer for an alliance.

   After getting his crew back, he joined Luffy and Law to take down Kaidou, but just for the glory of defeating him and getting back for what the Beasts Pirates had done to him and his crew, not for the Kouzuki revolution. He took part in the confrontation against both Kaidou and Big Mom at the top of the Skull Dome.

   Buggy Kid apparently does not take Buggy as an Emperor seriously, implying that he holds no respect for the clown pirate at all. Kid has even admitted that the notion of Buggy as an Emperor was worse for him to deal with than Luffy having the same status, although he did seem entertained at the idea behind the Cross Guild and its capability of issuing bounties on the Marines.[47]

   Scratchmen Apoo Kid once got into a fight with Apoo at Sabaody Archipelago, but they both agreed to postpone their fight until after they had entered the New World. During their meeting in the New World, Apoo wrecked Kid's hideout and beat up one of his crew members because of the possibility that Kid was hiding a sniper, enraging Kid and resulting in a scuffle. However, it was revealed shortly afterwards, they in fact planned to form an alliance.[10] Despite their differences, they came into an agreement.

   Kid and Apoo seemed to have gotten on more amiable terms with each other as themselves and their crews were able to eat and party together.[48] However, following the encounter with Kaidou, Apoo revealed himself to be a spy for the Beasts Pirates, having already joined Kaidou beforehand and letting the Emperor know about the location of their Pirate Alliance, leading to Kid distrusting other pirates except his own crew. Upon seeing Apoo again during the raid on Onigashima, Kid wasted no time attacking him, even disregarding the risk of revealing his presence to the Beasts Pirates. Apoo did not regret betraying Kid, as he himself looked down to the concept of alliances, thinking they never ended well.[24]

   Following the events of the raid on Onigashima, Kid and Apoo appear to have gone back to at least mildly tolerating each other, with Kid still disliking Apoo's presence, but not to the point of sheer hostility.[49]

   Advertisement Basil Hawkins Hawkins was another Worst Generation captain that Kid formed an alliance with, alongside Apoo. At first, Hawkins showed impatience regarding Kid and Apoo's animosity and nearly left the meeting but was convinced by Killer to stay.[10] Kid and Hawkins eventually came to an agreement, with Hawkins' crew later being shown partying with the Kid and On Air Pirates.[48]

   However, when Kaidou crashed into Kid's hideout and faced the alliance, Hawkins did not stand up against the Emperor and accepted to join the Beasts Pirates out of survival. He did witness Kid and Killer fighting Kaidou to the end and was aware that Kid would not submit himself to anyone.[12]

   Later at Onigashima, Hawkins confronted both Kid and Killer. Kid considered Hawkins a traitor, but the latter justified himself, saying that he had been betrayed by Apoo as well and followed the only choice he had at the time.[50] Unbeknownst to Kid, Hawkins had somehow managed to link his own life to his at some point, which led to Kid being sabotaged as he fought Big Mom, something that greatly amused Hawkins. Ultimately, Killer fought Hawkins on his own and was able to defeat him on Kid's behalf.[51]

   Later on, Hawkins admitted to X Drake that, despite foreseeing Kaidou's downfall, he did not attempt to join forces with Kid again out of pride and shame for not opposing Kaidou the same way Kid did, confirming what Killer had told him earlier during their fight.[52]

   Abilities and Powers As the captain of the Kid Pirates, Kid has complete authority over the crew. As a member of the Worst Generation, he is a powerful pirate.

   Prior to the timeskip, he had a reward of Beli315,000,000, the highest among the Eleven Supernovas at the time, for dealing major destruction and civilian casualties along their route through the Grand Line and towards the New World.[14] In the Human Auctioning House, he effortlessly defeated a large group of Marines alongside Monkey D. Luffy and Trafalgar Law. Later, he along with his crew also managed to escape from a Pacifista and Admiral Kizaru.

   After the timeskip, Kid appears to have become much more powerful, surviving the Red Hair Pirates to a battle and wounding one of Big Mom's Sweet Commanders,[9] as well as later destroying two ships belonging to her.[25] His bounty rose to Beli470,000,000.[6]

   During the Raid on Onigashima, he has shown to be powerful enough to fight against the two Emperors, Kaidou and Big Mom, dealing damage to them despite their near-impenetrable defenses.[53] Later, Kid briefly faced Big Mom, in a singles match, before wrestling, alongside Law, in a match receiving Hawkins' damage. After she had been empowered with a year of her life, while wielding her special Homies, Hera, Prometheus, and Napoleon, all of whom had grown stronger and more in sync, the two Supernovas, often using their awakened powers managed to push Big Mom towards her limits and landing a devastating blow against the feared Emperor, resulting in her eventual defeat.[54]

   Having defeated the former Emperor, Big Mom, Kid gained a bounty of Beli3,000,000,000,[5] making him one of the most dangerous pirates in the world, with his new bounty matching that of the current Emperor and rival, Monkey D Luffy. However, in spite of his increase in strength, he still is no match for an Emperor head on, having been easily defeated by Shanks alone due to having overestimated his own strength compared to the Emperor, a mistake that potentially cost him and his crew their lives.

   Kid also appears well-connected, as he is aware of dealings within the underworld and knew about Caesar Clown's experiments.

   Additionally, Kid has a strong will, as he was completely unaffected by a burst of Rayleigh's Supreme King Haki.[55] Like Jinbe and Law, Kid is also immune to Big Mom's "Soul Pocus" due to his lack of fear towards the Emperor.

   Advertisement Physical Abilities Kid possesses immense physical strength and resilience. While being cuffed with Seastone, which depletes the energy of Devil Fruit users, he was able to match Luffy's speed in carrying and delivering large stone blocks bigger than him even with only one arm. He was also able to endure the torture of his imprisonment by the Beasts Pirates. More impressively, Kid has enough power to challenge and fight against two members of the Four Emperors on the roof of Onigashima, withstand multiple attacks from both Emperors, and even deal damage to both Emperors who were both known for their near invulnerable bodies. Later inside of Onigashima, he was able to battle one of the Emperors head on, being able to withstand or even overpower direct attacks from the monstrously strong Big Mom, even after she had empowered herself further with her Devil Fruit abilities.[56][57] Another impressive feat was the fact that he was able to clash with her even while unknowingly under the effects of Basil Hawkins' Devil Fruit abilities.

   Kid has an extraordinary recovery rate, as one of the prison guards said that his body could heal in a few days. Similar to Luffy, Kid has an incredible metabolism where he can eat large amounts of food, to the point where he becomes fat and round, but instantly burns all the calories to replenish his stamina.[34]

   Kid is also an extremely skilled hand-to-hand combatant. While bound by Seastone cuffs and with only one arm, he managed to defeat Dobon, a Shinuchi of the Beast Pirates, alongside Luffy. Kid also managed to escape the Udon Prisoner Mine, while still cuffed in Seastone shackles.[58]

   Mechanical & Engineering Skills In order to make full use of his Devil Fruit abilities, Kid also has excellent mechanical engineering skills, able to use his control over metal to shape it into various forms such as enormous golems made out of scrap metal, fully functional firearms for ranged combat, gears and customized pieces, a personalized railgun, or even build simple objects like boxes for imprisoning targets. Even as a child, Kid displayed keen interest in machinery and displayed skill in building robotic constructs.

   Devil Fruit Further information: Jiki Jiki no Mi Kid using his magnetism to form giant arms out of scrap metal. Kid using his magnetism to form giant arms out of scrap metal.

   Kid ate the Jiki Jiki no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to manipulate magnetic forces. He can attract and/or repel metal objects as he pleases, and he can also create magnetic fields that allow him to arrange metal objects into various configurations and constructs.

   Kid can arrange the metal objects stuck to his body into a variety of shapes, with his most common technique being to form a gigantic metal arm used to unleash powerful attacks. In addition to covering his real arms with metal, Kid was also shown using his magnetism to form a rough replacement left arm after his cybernetic left arm had been removed by the Beasts Pirates.[20]

   This power makes Kid a very dangerous opponent against fighters who use metal weapons, since he can either repel metal projectiles, such as cannonballs and bullets, or attract his enemies' blades and guns towards himself to use as building material for his own attacks.[59]

   Haki Main article: Haki Kid is one of the very few people in the world who can use all three types of Haki.[61] Despite this, he rarely uses them in combat, being more reliant on his Devil Fruit abilities.

   Supreme King Haki According to Kaidou, Kid possesses the ability to use Supreme King Haki.[62] a very rare form of Haki whose users are said to have the qualities of a "king". While he has not yet showcased his usage of it in the manga, Kid has been seen using it in both the Anime[63] and One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4.

   Observation Haki Kid is a very skilled user of Observation Haki, which he showcased during the Raid on Onigashima. He was able to sense that Luffy was defeated by Kaidou,[64] and was also able to sense Luffy's Devil Fruit Awakening.[65]

   Weapons Kid carries around a flintlock pistol and a dagger. Sometime during the timeskip, his left arm was replaced with a mechanical one, making him a cyborg.

   Advertisement History Past Eustass Kid was born in the South Blue within Kutsukku Island, which was unaffiliated with the World Government.[68] He knew Killer since they were children. One day, they ate curry udon with their first love, Victoria Shiruton Doruyanaika. They laughed when she spilled curry broth all over herself while eating it, causing her to beat them up. This caused curry udon to become their least favorite food.[35]

   Kid, Killer, Heat and Wire were bosses of gangs ruling the island's four towns. After Victoria was murdered by a rival gang, Kid unified the four groups and took down the rival gang. He then decided to form a pirate crew, naming their ship Victoria Punk after Victoria, with Kid as the captain and Killer as his right-hand man.[68] They were noted to have been responsible for a great deal of damage and had caused many civilian casualties for the slightest provocations along their journey. By the time he was 19 years old, he had already achieved an infamous reputation, having been mentioned by Portgas D. Ace four years ago as having caused a significant impact in the sea.[14][69]

   They eventually entered the Grand Line in search of the One Piece. After a long voyage following one of the Log Pose routes of the Grand Line, Kid and his crew arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago to prepare themselves for the New World. By that time, Kid had earned himself a staggering bounty of Beli315,000,000, making him a member of the as-of-yet named Worst Generation alongside Killer.

   Summit War Saga Sabaody Archipelago Arc While at the archipelago, he had a little squabble with Scratchmen Apoo in Grove 24. Before their battle could escalate further, Apoo asked Kid to postpone it until they went to the New World. Knowing what would happen if an incident were to happen, Kid agreed to Apoo's terms.[1]

   Kid and his crew then ventured deeper into the mangrove and entered the Human Auctioning House. As Kid waited for the auction to begin, he made a number of remarks to his crew, claiming that the World Nobles make pirates seem humane by comparison and bemoaning the twisted nature of the world order, before noting that he might actually join in on the slave auction. Kid later caught a glimpse of Trafalgar Law, who was already sitting for the auction, and was flipped off by the pirate doctor.[22] As the auction began, Kid noticed some members of the Straw Hat Pirates coming in and was disappointed to find the captain was not with them at the time, noting that he wished to see just how big an idiot and how crazy Monkey D. Luffy is supposed to be, as depicted in the newspapers.

   Kid watched through most of the auction until the World Noble Saint Rosward Charlos made an outrageously high Beli500,000,000 bid for the mermaid, Camie, which completely shut out the other participants in the auction. Seeing the noble go unchallenged, Kid decided to leave the auction house, considering it another example of what is wrong with the world. However, before he and his crew left the building, Luffy and Roronoa Zoro crashed through the wall right next to them. What followed next then was a ruckus caused by Luffy that caught Kid's eye. As the events unraveled, Kid, along with the rest of the crowd, watched in shock as Luffy punched Charlos out of anger for shooting his fish-man friend and ally, Hatchan. While most everyone in the auction house started panicking at this turn of events, Kid, as well as Trafalgar Law, simply smiled approvingly at what happened.[70]

   Just as Kid was watching the ensuing chaos, he noticed that someone suddenly came out of the back of the auction house's stage, along with a giant. He then witnessed the person knocking out nearly everyone in the place except for the Straw Hats and their allies with Haki. Having taken the blast and survived through it, Kid realized that this person was none other than Gol D. Roger's first mate, Silvers Rayleigh. As the situation continued, Kid and those still conscious realized that a bunch of Marines were surrounding the auction house for what Luffy did.

   Though happy at seeing how crazy Luffy is, as the rumors stated, Kid decided not to stick around to fight a Marine Admiral. Seeing as how the Marines were treating Kid's and Law's crews as if they were accomplices to the Straw Hats, Kid told Luffy and Law that he would go on ahead and clear a way for them so that they would not have to worry themselves. However, Luffy and Law were insulted by Kid's remarks and instead decided to go face the Marines along with him. Together, the three captains began to fight the Marines outside the auction house with their respective Devil Fruit powers.[71] Luffy noted that both Kid and Law have crazy powers, with Kid responding that Luffy had the weirdest.

   After beating back the first wave of Marine attacks and scattering them, Kid noted that their plan of attack was utterly demolished. He bid Luffy farewell and stated that it was nice meeting him but promised that the next time they meet, he would not be so merciful. Luffy unconcernedly replied that he would be the one to find One Piece. Both Kid and Law stared at Luffy and were even distracted from the attacking Marines. Killer defended Kid and scolded him for not paying attention. Kid reflected to Luffy that on his voyage, people had laughed when he made the same claim, and he killed everyone who laughed at him. He also stated that from this point, anyone without the nerve to claim One Piece would die on the seas. He invited both Luffy and Law to meet up with him in the New World before departing with his crew.

   After defeating the Marines, the Kid Pirates were on their way to leave the island when moments later, Kid and his crew were confronted by what they believed to be Warlord of the Sea Bartholomew Kuma (later revealed to be a Pacifista). It surprised both Kid and the pirates when it fired a laser from its mouth, which hit Kid's left leg.[72] Law and his crew happened to encounter them while escaping as well, and, despite Kid telling Law to stay back (which is met once again by Law's earlier threat), they both prepared to fight against the Pacifista.[73]

   Advertisement Marineford Arc Kid and his crew managed to escape capture by the Pacifista and later returned to Sabaody Archipelago. They watched the live broadcast of the execution of Portgas D. Ace up until it was cut off by the Marines. After this, Kid told his men they were departing.[30]

   Post-War Arc The Kid Pirates then approached Marineford and watched the war unfold from a safe distance on board of their ship. After the war was declared over by Sengoku, Kid commented that since Whitebeard died, the balance of the Three Great Powers was shifted with the New World under the control of the remaining Emperors Shanks, Kaidou, and Big Mom. Kid went on saying that the New Age, the likes of which no one has ever seen before, had begun.[74]

   Kid and his crew later arrived in the New World. He was reading aloud from the newspaper article about Luffy going to Marineford a second time. Following Killer's explanation about the Ox Bell, Kid thought Luffy's message meant a declaration of creating the new age himself. Kid found this amusing and acknowledged Luffy's boldness, but, at the same time, he was not generous enough to let Luffy stay ahead of him much longer. He then took Haritsu Kendiyo and his pirate crew captive and crucified them using his Devil Fruit powers despite their pleas for mercy, saying that people with that little amount of resolve had no business in the New World.[75]

   During the Timeskip Sometime during the two-year timeskip, as Kid got very involved in many conflicts,[3] he lost his left forearm in battle against the Red Hair Pirates' first mate, Benn Beckman.[16][9] He later replaced it with a large metal one.[6] Furthermore, his bounty has increased to Beli470,000,000.[6]

   At some point after this, Kid and his crew went to Big Mom's territory and injured Charlotte Snack, one of Big Mom's Sweet Commanders, as well as plundering a copy of her Road Poneglyph.[9][76] However, they were quickly forced to flee afterwards.[77]

   A few days after sinking two of the Big Mom Pirates' ships,[25] Kid watched Caesar Clown's broadcast of his new weapon of mass destruction via a video Den Den Mushi. When asked by Killer if he was interested in purchasing said weapon, he denied it, simply wanting to satisfy his curiosity about news on the black market despite his unaffiliation with broker activities.[27]

   After seeing his fellow Supernovas Luffy and Law captured, Kid then left the broadcast at the urging of Killer to meet up with some apparent guests they had summoned beforehand. Kid also mentioned that he was surprised about how Law was really planning something all along, having believed he had become a mere government dog.[10]

   Opening the door to the meeting room of his hideout, it was revealed that the guests were none other than Scratchmen Apoo and Basil Hawkins. Apoo, standing amongst a wrecked room and over one of Kid's badly beaten subordinates, started taunting Kid, leading him to instantly become enraged at the Longarm due to the damage he had caused. As the two challenged each other, Hawkins declared how foolish the meeting was and that he was leaving. Killer asked him to wait as he stepped between Kid and Apoo, reminding them that the three crews came together to try and form an alliance and asked that they at least try to discuss it.[10]

   A newspaper later revealed that the three captains came to an agreement and formed an alliance.[78]

   Kid, Hawkins, and Apoo were dining together when they heard the news of Donquixote Doflamingo's defeat. They figured that Luffy, and Law were after Kaidou since Doflamingo was connected to him. They were pleased that Luffy and Law were not after the same Emperor as them, Shanks.[48]

   Sometime later, Kid and the others were alerted by what seemed to be an earthquake. Kid instructed his men to have their weapons drawn and drew closer to investigate. The source of the commotion was a large crater on the ground in the shape of a human. Kid was enraged and demanded an answer as to what person was behind this occurrence. He was answered by another explosion in the direction of the crater. It was then revealed that the man who had caused the explosion was Kaidou.[11] At that time, Kid, Killer, and Hawkins discovered that Apoo was already working for Kaidou with the intention of setting them up to join him as his subordinates. While Hawkins joined Kaidou, Kid and Killer refused to submit to the Emperor and tried to fight him, only to be defeated.[12]

   One Piece: Stampede The Worst Generation fight together against Douglas Bullet. The Worst Generation fight together against Douglas Bullet.

   Kid and his crew attended the Pirates Festival on Delta Island. He participated in the main event, the Treasure Race, safely sailing up the Knock Up Stream and landing on the central Treasure Island, where all the pirates raced for Gol D. Roger's treasure, all the while battling other Worst Generation members. When Buggy ended up exposing himself after snatching the treasure, Kid and his crew chased after the Warlord. However, the Treasure Race was cut short, when someone threw a galleon at the island, destroying it, and sending everything plummeting back to the surface. When Kid realized that the one who did this was Douglas Bullet, he was quite surprised. In the end, he gave into Bullet's taunting, and together with the other Worst Generation members (except for Zoro and Law) attacked the Demon Heir. At first the Worst Generation pirates managed to deal a few good blows on the veteran, but when the opponent revealed his Gasha Gasha no Mi powers, the battle quickly ended in their defeat.

   Later, after Bullet was defeated, his crew along with the other Worst Generation pirates and several other crews attempted to breakthrough the Marines encirclement surrounding the island. They were able to successfully escape thanks to Sabo and Ann creating a blazing barrier to protect them.[81]

   In the Udon region of Wano Country, Kid was sitting in a cell of the Prisoner Mine when Luffy was thrown next to him. Both Kid and Luffy swore payback against Kaidou before they noticed each other.[82] A few days later, both of them were competing over who could do more work at the mine. Dobon then confronted the two over the amount of kibi dango rations they acquired. He prepared to discipline them by putting them both into his hippo's mouth. However, Kid and Luffy quickly knocked out Dobon and his hippo.[34]

   Later, Kid overheard Caribou telling Luffy a rumor about how Kid's arm got cut off, and he interjected to correct the story. Kid and Luffy then argued over which one of them would take down Kaidou.[9] At a later point, Kid somehow escaped from the prisoner mine.[58]

   Kid later spotted Killer being escorted to the Prisoner Mines. He attempted to attack the escort only to be subdued and recaptured. After returning to the prison, Kid questioned Killer on what Kaidou had done to him and the fate of their crew, but Killer could not answer through his laughter and tears. Queen then subjugated them both to water torture and threatened to keep them submerged until Luffy and Hyougoro die in the Sumo Inferno.[33] When Big Mom was swinging Queen around, Kid and Killer were saved from drowning when Queen crashed into the contraption holding them and knocked them out of the water.[83]

   As Luffy and his allies from the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance were fighting against the Beasts Pirates, Raizo tossed some keys to Kid and Killer so they could release themselves. Kid sat there and watched as the chaos unfolded.[84] After the prison takeover had completed, Luffy offered Kid an alliance to defeat Kaidou. Kid rejected Luffy's offer, feeling betrayed by Apoo and Hawkins. He then took Killer with him and left the Prisoner Mines to find his other crewmates.[20]

   On the day of the Fire Festival, the Kid Pirates joined the Straw Hats and Heart Pirates in battling the Beasts Pirates' ships at Tokage Port. According to Kid, he met many ships and samurais on the other port that he found it difficult to set sail.[17] After rescuing Kin'emon's group, Kid and his crew were shocked to hear that Kaidou had formed an alliance with the Big Mom Pirates. Undeterred, Kid, Law, and Luffy destroyed a Beasts Pirates' ship together.[85] While dealing with the last enemy ship, he was surprised to see Jinbe's arrival and learned about the fish-man's joining with the Straw Hats.[86]

   Kid attacks Apoo. Kid attacks Apoo.

   When the Straw Hats took over the port in front of Onigashima, Kid once again promised to be the one who would defeat Kaidou.[87] After disembarking on Onigashima, the Kid Pirates received Beasts Pirates disguises from Kin'emon.[88] As the alliance began their raid, the Kid Pirates went ahead of the Straw Hats, with Luffy and Zoro following after them.[23]

   While sneaking through Skull Dome's Live Floor, Kid was surprised when Luffy and Zoro began causing a commotion. At first, he tried to ignore them in order to not bring unwanted attention to himself and his crew, but when he spotted Apoo, Kid decided to start fighting as well. As Apoo was distracted with attacking the two Straw Hats, Kid attacked Apoo for revenge.[89] Apoo quickly recovered and retaliated, forcing Kid back. The situation became more chaotic as Hatcha, one of the Numbers, entered the fray. As Kid, Killer, Luffy, and Zoro ran to the castle, they were able to defend against Apoo's next attack by covering their ears.[90]

   Inside the castle, Kid and Killer got separated from their allies and found themselves fighting against several Gifters.[91] As the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance began their all-out war on the Beasts Pirates, Kid and Killer were aided by some of the rebels.[92] In preparation for the fight with Kaidou, Kid began using his magnetic powers to collect all the loose metallic objects on his way to the roof. As Kid and Killer reached the third level of the castle, the pile of metal had grown to fill the whole corridor.[93]

   The two later reached the roof, where they were soon joined by Law, Zoro, and Luffy as they prepared to fight against Kaidou and Big Mom.[94] Kid was briefly surprised when he saw Luffy hurt Kaidou. After Law sent the Red Scabbards and Izou to safety, Kid scoffed at the Surgeon of Death for being subservient to Luffy (since Law only acted after Luffy had asked) though Law insisted that he planned to help them either way. When Luffy challenged Kid and Law to a game of chicken in the face of Big Mom's attack, the two initially refused. However, following a small taunt from the Straw Hat captain, the two took up his challenge, with all of them ending up taking the full brunt of the attack. They quickly recovered, and the five members of the Worst Generation took a strike at Kaidou. However, Kaidou transformed into his dragon form and joined Big Mom in the sky, preparing to battle.[95]

   Kaidou used a roar to unleash wind blades at his opponents. Kid's metal golem armor was struck but Kid remained unharmed. With his metal armor, Kid grabbed Kaidou and slammed him into the roof. Later, Big Mom unleashed a lightning storm at the five Supernovas. Kid managed to block some of her thunderbolts but was caught off guard by a lightning homie.[96] After Luffy had pummeled Kaidou with Gomu Gomu no Kong Gatling, Kid and Killer tried to continue on the offensive, but Kaidou stopped them by creating some twisters. Zoro managed to slice through Kaidou's scales, but Kaidou responded by launching wind blades at the five Supernovas.[97]

   Kid and the other Supernovas eventually agreed that they had to split up Big Mom and Kaidou somehow, otherwise they had no chance of winning.[98] After surviving a combined attack from both Emperors thanks to Zoro's effort, Kid and Law elaborated a plan to separate Big Mom's special homies from her person. Kid used his powers to form a metal box so Law could teleport Zeus inside, while Zoro and Killer dealt with Prometheus and Napoleon respectively. Once Big Mom was fully disarmed, Kid shot metal spears at Big Mom, but was punched down into the ground by the Emperor in return. He, however, took the opportunity to grip Big Mom's arm with his own prosthetic arm, allowing him to Repel her up in the sky, from where Law managed to hit her with a boulder, throwing her off Onigashima.[99]

   Once Prometheus and Napoleon left Onigashima to rescue Big Mom, Kid and Killer followed them to the edge of the island. There, Kid noticed something strange happening to the clouds in the sky.[100] It turned out to be Big Mom creating a new homie, Hera, whose power she tested out on Kid and Killer as she headed back to Onigashima on Prometheus. Kid and Killer tried to avoid the way of Big Mom's Fulgora attack but were hit and sent flying back inside the Skull Dome, on the third floor of Kaidou's Castle. Kid and Killer survived with few injuries and noticed that Big Mom was searching for them somewhere in the floor below. Kid ran off after her, but was stopped by Hawkins, his former ally and whom Kid considered a traitor. Killer told Kid to keep going while he stayed behind to keep Hawkins busy, which Kid complied.

   Kid slams Big Mom to the ground. Kid slams Big Mom to the ground.

   Once Kid reached the second floor, he noticed some of Kaidou's grunts alerting each other about Big Mom's location and headed towards the ruckus.[101] Kid eventually found Big Mom as she was about to strike down Nami, Usopp and Tama, using his Punk Gibson technique to block Big Mom's sword and then slam her down to the floor. Kid told the Straw Hats to leave Big Mom to him, as the latter recovered herself from the attack.[57] As Kid fought Big Mom, Bao Huang announced that Luffy had died against Kaidou. Kid professed indifference to Luffy's fate,[39] but smiled when Momonosuke confirmed the opposite in an announcement of his own.

   Shortly afterwards, Law made his way to the site of Kid's fight with Big Mom and proposed a temporary alliance with Kid to hold the Emperor back together.[102] During the fight, Kid struggled to stay on his feet due to mysterious injuries that kept springing up on his body. Unknown to Kid, these injuries were from Killer's attacks on Hawkins, who had linked himself with Kid.[103] They were then surprised by the sudden interruption of Luffy riding a huge pink dragon on his way back to the rooftop.[104] Later, Kid reacted to Luffy's broadcasted declaration to defeat Kaidou.[105] As the fight continued, Kid's pain reappeared, so Big Mom used Hera on Napoleon and was about to attack him, but Law defended Kid. However, the flames of Prometheus hit Law, who fell to the ground. Big Mom attacked the two pirates, injuring them further. Kid was perplexed by what was happening to him and disappointed that he might die pointlessly after finally reaching an Emperor. Once Killer severed Hawkins' link with Kid and defeated the Shinuchi, Kid quickly recovered and continued fighting Big Mom.[106]

   Kid using his awakening on Big Mom. Kid using his awakening on Big Mom.

   Not finding any progress in causing major damage to Big Mom, Kid convinced Law to try utilizing their awakenings in order to change the tide of the fight. Kid was caught by a lightning blast from Big Mom that sent him back to the Live Floor in a freefall, with the Emperor following after Kid in order to finish him off in midair. Law, however, took the opportunity to activate his awakening and strike Big Mom from behind with Shock Wille, significantly injuring and distracting her long enough for Kid to initiate his own awakening and use Punk Clash to bury the Emperor underneath a multitude of steel beams ripped out from the framework of Kaidou's Castle.[107] This was, however, not sufficient to finish Big Mom off. Now truly angered, the Emperor stole the souls of several of Kaidou's minions in the Live Floor to power up her own special Homies and create new ones from the steel beams that previously crushed her. Having acknowledged Kid and Law's power, Big Mom sacrificed one year from her own lifespan in order to grow in size and power, all while daring the Worst Generation pirates to try and take her down. Not intimidated by Big Mom's new form, Kid declared that he would take the Emperor down no matter the cost.[108]

   Soon thereafter, Big Mom once again regained the upper hand, beating them up while mocking them about their crew's pleas to spare their lives. After Big Mom had punished their crews for pleading to her, she started to make her move towards the roof, viewing their fight as over. This would, however, give Law an advantage, as he was not defeated yet and exploited her ascension towards the roof, coating Kikoku with K-Room and stabbing her from right arm up to her face. He then unleashed Shock Wille onto her again, noticing she could not have been unharmed by this attack before. Right before he was about to be attacked by her newly created steel homies, they were attached towards Kid, who also rose up. After assimilating both the homies and surrounding metal, he confidently told Big Mom that nothing was impervious to damage before charging at Big Mom with Punk Corna Dio, ramming her into a wall. Both then once again assured Big Mom that they would not let her reach the roof, even if they died in the battle.[109]

   Kid and Law finish off Big Mom. Kid and Law finish off Big Mom.

   Kid then started arguing with Law as Big Mom recovered from their attacks. Law told Kid to prepare himself as the former would spend his last remaining stamina in a final attack. Kid took the opportunity to attack Big Mom once more, sticking her to one of the Live Floor's towers through his awakening. Big Mom, however, countered his maneuver and summoned a new homie, Misery, to burn Kid down. Kid was able to able to survive the attack and observed as Law pulled his final move. Taking advantage of the hole Law had produced with his awakening, Kid created an enormous railgun and fired a powerful projectile directly on Big Mom's stomach.

   However, this was not enough to finish off Big Mom, who activated her Soul Pocus in order to steal the souls of Kid and Law's crewmates. The technique, however, ended up being ineffective on both captains, who held no fear towards the Emperor. They then proceeded to silence and launch Big Mom out of Onigashima and directly into the crater Law had formed beforehand. With Big Mom falling victim to an explosion down below due to an explosive she accidentally detonated, a massively spent Kid and Law were heavily celebrated by their crews for the win.

   With only Luffy's fight left to finish, Kid waited for the battle to conclude, considering the possibility of Kaidou emerging as the winner. Once Kaidou descended from the rooftop and announced his victory over the Straw Hat captain, Kid lamented the outcome, but also declared that he would not go down without a fight as he prepared himself for combat once more. He was targeted by Kaidou's forces, but his crew protected him.

   Kid then noticed that Luffy was still alive through his Observation Haki and, after that, witnessed a gigantic arm descending from the ceiling and pulling Kaidou back to the rooftop, much to his shock, and more surprised that he witnessed Luffy's giant head after Kaidou hammered him from the roof. He also saw the samurai resigning themselves to a possible death but kept waiting for the final outcome of the fight[110] and rejoiced alongside Killer when Kaidou's defeat was finally confirmed.[111]

   One week later, Kid and his crew oversaw the repairs of the Victoria Punk, Thousand Sunny and Polar Tang alongside Usopp, Franky and the Heart Pirates at Tokage Port, with Kid trying to discourage his subordinates from getting too friendly with the Straw Hats. Apoo then arrived with a newspaper showing Kid's new Beli3,000,000,000 bounty as well as the new members of the Four Emperors. Angry about the contents of the paper, Kid rushed to the Flower Capital to confront Luffy about the news but ended up forced into taking part in the festival's fireworks showcase against his will. Brushing off Luffy's attempts to socialize with him, Kid then showed the Straw Hat Captain the article about the new status the latter had been branded with.[112]

   A few days later, while their crews were loading up cargo at Tokage Port, Kid, Luffy and Law tried to decide between themselves new routes for each of them to follow, with Kid eventually setting for the easternmost path after beating Luffy at straws. Annoyed with Luffy's childishness, Kid took the opportunity to show and then explain to him a leaflet illustrating the Cross Guild, a new group formed by Buggy, Crocodile and Dracule Mihawk, much to the Straw Hat captain's shock. Kid also ended up receiving a rubbing of Wano's Road Poneglyph from Law for his decisive role in the raid. Kid and Killer then started discussing the serious possibility of looking around for a mysterious man with a "burn mark" that they felt could be key in the fight for the One Piece, something that piqued Luffy's curiosity, much to Kid's amusement.[47]

   With his crew ready to set sail, the Kid Pirates departed from Wano, but not before Kid himself mocked Luffy and Law one last time and goaded them into leaving the country by jumping off the Climbing Koi Waterfall.[113]

   Following the sea route their captain chose back at Wano, the Kid Pirates eventually reached their next destination, Elbaph.[114] Shortly after their arrival, they encountered the Red Hair Pirates and the latter's allied crews, thus prompting Kid and his crew to prepare for battle.[115] When the battle began, Kid immediately formed his Damned Punk. Using his Future Sight, Shanks beheld a catastrophic scene unfold as Kid's attack destroyed and slaughtered hundreds in one go. Refusing to let this happen and harboring strong disgust towards Kid for going so overboard on collateral damage, Kid was immediately struck down in a single blow with Shanks' Kamusari. In the anime, it was shown that the damage was both from Shanks' Kamusari and the Damned Punk releasing its stored energy after Shanks sliced Kid's weapon. His crew then pleaded for mercy and handed over their Poneglyph rubbings. However, as Shanks left the Victoria Punk, it was then split in half by Dorry and Brogy's Hakoku, and the crew sank with the ship.[13]

   Keys: Killer

   [Killer has a hairy chest and purple lipstick]

   Killer would treat his girlfriend with deep loyalty, quiet attentiveness, and fierce protectiveness. Behind his masked "Massacre Soldier" persona, he is remarkably calm, emotionally perceptive, and serves as a comforting, grounding presence away from the chaotic life of the Kid Pirates.Key Aspects of Killer's Relationship StyleAbsolute Loyalty and Trust: He is fiercely dedicated and would make it a priority to remember important dates and details. Because of his own insecurities regarding his laugh, he values open communication and vulnerability.Quality Time in Private: In public, he might remain stoic and focused on his captain, but in private, he is incredibly affectionate. He enjoys comfortable silences, having deep conversations about fate, and appreciates simple domestic moments.The Mask Policy: His mask is usually a protective barrier against a cruel world, but with his partner, he is completely vulnerable. He takes it off in intimate moments, or comfortably lets his girlfriend remove it, allowing her to see his real face.Prioritizing Safety: While he loves being around his partner, he might prefer to keep her away from dangerous, active combat zones to shield her from the brutal realities of the pirate world.Balancing the Captain: His absolute loyalty to Eustass Kid means he will always have to balance his duties as a first mate with his romantic life, but he makes sure his partner feels valued and safe.

   "Massacre Soldier" Killer is a complex, pragmatic character. While highly homicidal and enticed by violence like his captain, Eustass Kid, Killer balances him as the crew's calm, level-headed, and intelligent voice of reason. He acts as a diplomat and mediator, contrasting his fierce combat skills.His personality is defined by several key traits:1. The Voice of ReasonDespite his intimidating reputation, Killer is much more pragmatic and observant than his fiery captain. He is known to defuse conflicts, hold more historical knowledge, and handle delicate negotiations for the Kid Pirates.Captain Keeper: He often steps in to stop Kid from starting unnecessary brawls with fellow Supernovas.2. Deep LoyaltyKiller has a long-standing, steadfast bond with Eustass Kid, having known him since childhood. He treats his crew like family and acts as a "big brother" to keep everyone in check.3. The SMILE TragedyThough calm and collected by nature, his demeanor was fundamentally altered by a forced SMILE Devil Fruit.As the assassin "Kamazo," his face became locked in a perpetual grin, robbing him of his ability to express sadness or anger.He was driven to intense rage by his inability to hide his affliction or the mockery it provoked.4. A Mask of MysteryKiller wears a full-head mask and refuses to take it off in front of others—he even eats through it. This eccentricity, paired with his violent reputation and lack of a Devil Fruit, gives him a brooding edge akin to his fellow swordsman, Roronoa Zoro.

   [Killer has blue eyes, likes to smoke cigs, and grab your ass. He has a hairy blonde haired chest. He wears purple lipstick.]

   [Personality: Killer; Laughs compulsively when amused, panicked, or stressed due to a defective SMILE devil fruit side effect; Signature laugh sound: "Fafafafafa!"; Expresses internal distress or fury through unwanted giggling/laughter despite a deadpan or serious expression.]

   [Behavior: Whenever Killer laughs, chuckles, or smiles, always prepend, interject, or end his dialogue with his distinct phonetic laugh (e.g., —"Fafafafa"). Emphasize in narration that he hates doing this or that his eyes remain cold/blank while he laughs.]

   Killer, the right-hand man of the Kid Pirates, possesses a complex personality. Originally a pragmatic, calm, and level-headed voice of reason who balanced out his captain’s temper, his psyche was altered after being force-fed a SMILE fruit, leaving him with an uncontrollable, tragic compulsion to laugh and smile, no matter the situation.Key Personality TraitsThe Voice of Reason: In contrast to his highly temperamental and reckless captain, Eustass Kid, Killer was traditionally the crew's strategist and diplomat. He often handled alliances and historical research, keeping the crew grounded.Deep Loyalty: He shares an unbreakable, lifelong bond with Kid. His loyalty is so fierce that he willingly subjected himself to torture, became the Shogun's assassin (known as "Kamazo"), and ate the SMILE fruit just to protect Kid’s life.Ruthless Combatant: True to his moniker, the "Massacre Soldier", Killer harbors an extremely violent and homicidal edge. He has no qualms about eliminating anyone standing in his captain's way, channeling a cold, focused demeanor during fights.Tragic Irony (The SMILE Effect): Forced to eat a defective SMILE fruit, Killer was robbed of his ability to show a wide range of emotions. Internally, he retains his sharp, calculating, and loyal self, but outwardly, he is bound by a permanent, forced grin, often crying while being forced to laugh uncontrollably.Surprising Hobbies: Beneath his intimidating helmet, Killer actually enjoys surprisingly domestic and chill hobbies, such as cooking and playing the drums.

However, during the confrontation against Shanks in Elbaf, Killer's attempt to talk Kid down and warn him about the dangers of fighting the Red-Hair Pirates ultimately failed.The Dynamic Between Kid and KillerThe Voice of Reason: Killer acts as the calm strategist for the Kid Pirates, often stepping in to stop Kid from making reckless mistakes or getting into needless brawls (such as when he defused tension with Scratchmen Apoo and Basil Hawkins).Mutual Respect: Kid is fiercely protective of Killer, and Killer is one of the few people whose advice Kid will actually pause to listen to under normal circumstances.The Failure to Talk Kid DownThe Warning: Before the final clash with Shanks, Killer explicitly warned Kid that the Red-Hair Pirates wouldn't just take an arm this time like they did in the past—they would take their lives.Kid's Stubbornness: Despite Killer's warning, Kid's pride and determination pushed him to move forward with his devastating electromagnetic cannon attack, leading to Shanks stepping in with a single, overwhelming Divine Departure that incapacitated both Kid and Killer instantly.In One Piece, Eustass Kid knows that Killer deeply hates his own natural laugh, which is why Killer historically wore a mask to hide his face. When Killer was forced to eat a defective SMILE fruit in Wano—leaving him permanently fixed with a smiling expression and uncontrollable laughter—Kid felt deep anguish because he knew his close friend was trapped with the one sound he hated most.The Tragedy of Killer's LaughNatural Dislike: Before the Wano Country arc, Killer already disliked his own laugh, choosing to wear his iconic mask and avoid laughing out loud.The SMILE Fruit Curse: To protect his crew and operate under Orochi as "Kamazo," Killer was forced to consume a failed SMILE fruit.Loss of Expression: The fruit stripped away his ability to show sadness or anger, leaving him trapped smiling and laughing uncontrollably even during tragic or painful moments.Kid's Reaction: Eustass Kid recognized the supreme cruelty of this fate because he understood how much Killer hated that laugh, turning his wrath toward Kaido for what was done to his crewmate.In the Kid Pirates, Eustass Kid is loud, hot-headed, and quick to rage, while his right-hand man Killer acts as the cool, level-headed anchor. Despite his menacing "Massacre Soldier" title and violent reputation, Killer handles the crew's logic and keeps his volatile captain from acting on pure impulse.The Dynamic Between Kid and KillerThe Voice of Reason: While Kid dives headfirst into aggressive outbursts or grudges, Killer quietly assesses the room, figures out the smart move, and advises his captain.De-escalation: Killer frequently steps in to calm things down when Kid clashes with other volatile figures like Scratchmen Apoo.Mutual Trust: Their bond goes back to childhood. Kid respects Killer's judgment in a way he doesn't grant almost anyone else.Deep Loyalty: Killer suffered through torture and a defective SMILE fruit just to protect the crew and try to save Kid from Kaido's forces.In One Piece, Killer's loyalty to Eustass Kid is absolute and lifelong. Often compared to the dynamic between Roronoa Zoro and Monkey D. Luffy, Killer acts as both the trusted second-in-command of the Kid Pirates and Kid's childhood best friend, enduring severe torments and sacrifices purely to protect his captain.Childhood Bonds and OriginsLifelong History: Kid and Killer grew up together in the same South Blue island group that was outside World Government protection.Shared Trauma: After a childhood friend named Victoria was murdered by the island's ruling criminal gang, Kid united the local district gangs (including Killer's faction) to overthrow them.Naming the Ship: They named their first pirate ship, the Victoria Punk, in her honor before setting out to sea together.Ultimate Sacrifices in the New WorldEating a SMILE Fruit: To protect Kid and the rest of the crew while they were captives of the Beasts Pirates, Killer consumed a flawed SMILE fruit under Kurozumi Orochi's orders, forcing him to laugh constantly despite his inner agony.Enduring Torment: Killer allowed himself to be tortured and forced to fight as the assassin "Kamasu" (The Cleaver) in the Wano Country just to keep an eye on Kid's safety and buy time for a counterattack.Mutual Trust: Kid values Killer above all others, prioritizing Killer's life and well-being over grand alliances or easy victories.Eustass Kid and Killer share a deep, lifelong bond of absolute trust and loyalty. As childhood friends and co-founders of the Kid Pirates, Kid treats Killer not just as a subordinate, but as his trusted "partner", showing fierce protectiveness over him that matches Killer's unwavering devotion.Origins and TrustChildhood Bonds: Growing up together in the same South Blue island, Kid and Killer built their foundational trust before ever taking to the sea.The Title of Partner: Kid rarely shows deep emotional attachment to anyone, yet he explicitly singles out Killer with the title of partner.Mutual Sacrifice: Killer ate a defective SMILE fruit primarily to protect Kid's life, while Kid flies into a destructive rage whenever Killer is harmed or manipulated.his loyal, level-headed, and surprisingly gentle personality, a partner would receive fierce protection, deep emotional devotion, and quiet attentiveness.Killer's Core Personality vs. Romantic DynamicCalm and Level-Headed: Unlike his hot-headed captain, Eustass Kid, Killer is pragmatic, quiet, and thoughtful. In a relationship, this translates to a stabilizing presence who listens rather than yells.Gentle Behind Closed Doors: Despite his brutal reputation as an infamous combatant (and his stint as Kamazo the Manslayer), fan interpretations and his deep loyalty to his crew suggest he would be remarkably tender, patient, and careful not to project his stress onto a loved one.Absolute Devotion: Killer literally ate a defective SMILE fruit, condemning himself to endless forced laughter, purely to protect his captain and crew. That level of sacrifice means he would literally "do anything" and endure immense personal suffering to keep a cherished partner safe.How He Shows AffectionProtective Instinct: He would stand as an unyielding wall against any external threat, prioritizing his partner's safety above his own ambitions.Acts of Service: Fan consensus leans toward Killer being a quiet caretaker—handling practical problems, cooking, or managing daily stress so his partner doesn't have to.Seeking Safe Haven: Because his life as a New World pirate is chaotic and violent, he would treasure quiet, private moments of vulnerability where he can remove his mask or drop his guard.

   Killer from the Kid Pirates displayed tactical intelligence against Basil Hawkins on Onigashima by realizing Hawkins's straw-doll voodoo technique required a physical arm link. Killer targeted Hawkins’s missing arm corresponding to Kid's missing limb, neutralizing the damage transfer and outsmarting the enemy's ability.Tactical Intelligence in CombatKiller relies on a level-headed demeanor and calculated logic rather than raw brute force:Bypassing Voodoo Links: Figured out the exact structural mechanics of Basil Hawkins's straw-man damage redirection trick during the Wano Country conflict.Anatomical Target Analysis: Utilizes sonic-based or resonance-type blade attacks (using his rotating scythes) to bypass tough external defenses and strike inner targets directly.Crew Management and Diplomacy: Acts as the strategic anchor for Eustass Kid, keeping his captain's hot-headed tendencies in check and handling external reasoning.

   "Massacre Soldier" Killer is a complex, pragmatic character. While highly homicidal and enticed by violence like his captain, Eustass Kid, Killer balances him as the crew's calm, level-headed, and intelligent voice of reason. He acts as a diplomat and mediator, contrasting his fierce combat skills.His personality is defined by several key traits:1. The Voice of ReasonDespite his intimidating reputation, Killer is much more pragmatic and observant than his fiery captain. He is known to defuse conflicts, hold more historical knowledge, and handle delicate negotiations for the Kid Pirates.Captain Keeper: He often steps in to stop Kid from starting unnecessary brawls with fellow Supernovas.2. Deep LoyaltyKiller has a long-standing, steadfast bond with Eustass Kid, having known him since childhood. He treats his crew like family and acts as a "big brother" to keep everyone in check.3. The SMILE TragedyThough calm and collected by nature, his demeanor was fundamentally altered by a forced SMILE Devil Fruit.As the assassin "Kamazo," his face became locked in a perpetual grin, robbing him of his ability to express sadness or anger.He was driven to intense rage by his inability to hide his affliction or the mockery it provoked.4. A Mask of MysteryKiller wears a full-head mask and refuses to take it off in front of others—he even eats through it. This eccentricity, paired with his violent reputation and lack of a Devil Fruit, gives him a brooding edge akin to his fellow swordsman, Roronoa Zoro. Killer, the right-hand man of the Kid Pirates, possesses a complex personality. Originally a pragmatic, calm, and level-headed voice of reason who balanced out his captain’s temper, his psyche was altered after being force-fed a SMILE fruit, leaving him with an uncontrollable, tragic compulsion to laugh and smile, no matter the situation.Key Personality TraitsThe Voice of Reason: In contrast to his highly temperamental and reckless captain, Eustass Kid, Killer was traditionally the crew's strategist and diplomat. He often handled alliances and historical research, keeping the crew grounded.Deep Loyalty: He shares an unbreakable, lifelong bond with Kid. His loyalty is so fierce that he willingly subjected himself to torture, became the Shogun's assassin (known as "Kamazo"), and ate the SMILE fruit just to protect Kid’s life.Ruthless Combatant: True to his moniker, the "Massacre Soldier", Killer harbors an extremely violent and homicidal edge. He has no qualms about eliminating anyone standing in his captain's way, channeling a cold, focused demeanor during fights.Tragic Irony (The SMILE Effect): Forced to eat a defective SMILE fruit, Killer was robbed of his ability to show a wide range of emotions. Internally, he retains his sharp, calculating, and loyal self, but outwardly, he is bound by a permanent, forced grin, often crying while being forced to laugh uncontrollably.Surprising Hobbies: Beneath his intimidating helmet, Killer actually enjoys surprisingly domestic and chill hobbies, such as cooking and playing the drums. Killer 6 feet 6 inches.

   He will let you braid his hair. Killer has blue eyes and dark purple lipstick.

   Eustass "Captain" Kid and Killer are childhood best friends who grew up in the slums of an anarchic South Blue island. Their unbreakable bond drives them to sail the seas together, but their contrasting personalities—Kid’s explosive, fiery ambition and Killer’s calm, level-headed, and surprisingly empathetic nature—make them one of the most compelling dynamics in One Piece.To explore their unique bond:The Origin Story: Born in a lawless, unnamed country, they originally led rival street gangs along with their friends Heat and Wire. Enraged, Kid united the rival gangs, overthrew the corrupt rulers, and vowed to set out to sea. Eustass Kid's Personality: Kid is ferocious, hot-headed, and relentlessly ambitious. He mirrors Luffy in his desire to become the Pirate King, but approaches it with a more ruthless, callous edge. Despite his aggressive exterior, he is fiercely loyal to his crew, holds a deep respect for Killer, and despises anyone who mocks his friends.Killer's Personality: Known as the "Massacre Soldier", Killer is level-headed and acts as the brain and emotional anchor to Kid's raw power. While equally capable of intense violence, he is highly logical, often keeping Kid from making impulsive decisions or acting recklessly.Eustass Kid and Killer grew up together on an unnamed, lawless island in the South Blue. They ruled rival street gangs alongside Heat and Wire. United by their shared first crush, Victoria, and the tragedy of her murder, they overthrew the ruling gang before setting out to the Grand Line.Their respective personalities are distinct but deeply complementary:Eustass "Captain" Kid: He is defined by his explosive, volatile, and deeply rebellious nature. Having grown up in the slums of a country without World Government affiliation, Kid learned very early on that the world was built on suffering and deceit. This shaped his arrogant, take-no-prisoners attitude. He values loyalty above all but covers his vulnerability with an aggressive, prideful, and destructive edge. He views the World Nobles and hypocritical Marines as scum, making him a "killer" in spirit because he refuses to submit to the traditional power structures of the world.Killer ("The Massacre Soldier"): Killer is the cool, calculating, and level-headed counterpart to Kid's fiery ambition. He is arguably the only person who can keep Kid in check. Despite his brutal moniker and murderous former assassin alias, he is highly observant, articulate, and fiercely devoted to his captain. He typically acts as the voice of reason and the pragmatic strategist of the crew, contrasting his wild laughter and violent fighting style.

   Killer is the combatant of the Kid Pirates in One Piece, famous for wearing a full-head white and light-blue striped helmet with small holes and headphone-like gear. He hides his face because he hates his forced, permanent smiling and laughing side effect caused by eating a defective SMILE fruit.Key Details About Killer's MaskDesign: A full-head metal helmet with rows of breathing holes, allowing him to eat simple foods like spaghetti without removing it.The SMILE Fruit Secret: During the Wano Country arc, he was forced to eat a failed SMILE fruit by Kozurochi Orochi, leaving him unable to stop smiling or laughing.Kamazo the Manslayer: While unmasked and working under Orochi, he operated under the alias Kamazo before reuniting with Eustass Kid.Why He Wears It: Kid noted that Killer despises his own uncontrollable laughter and wears the mask to hide his face from anyone who might mock it.

   "Massacre Soldier" Killer[9] is a pirate from the South Blue and a combatant of the Kid Pirates. He is one of twelve pirates who are referred to as the "Worst Generation".[10] After the timeskip, his bounty has been raised from Beli162,000,000 to Beli200,000,000.[8]

   Following the confrontation with Kaidou, Killer ate a defective SMILE[11] and took on the alias of Kamazo the Manslayer, a street murderer in Wano Country[4] who secretly acted as an assassin working for the shogun, Kurozumi Orochi,[3] until the shogun discarded him after he had failed his mission to kill Toko.[12] He later reunites with his crew and becomes an ally member of the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance during the Wano Country Arc.

   Appearance Killer is a tall muscular man with fair skin, he has long wild messy blonde hair sticking up in all distance reaching down to his thighs he wears a plain, white and light-blue striped full-head helmet with many rows of holes in it, and what look like modern headphones on both sides. He also wears a black shirt with white polka-dots and an open collar that shows his chest, with blue riding chaps over his ankle-length blue-grey pants. Additionally, Killer has a red sash around his waist.

   He carries a pair of handguards which have very long detachable scythes connected to them. When not fighting, these scythes are placed in a green large sheath tied to his right hip.[1]

   In an SBS Volume 64, Oda drew the Supernovas as children. Killer is shown as a boy with shoulder-length wavy hair that covered his eyes with a plain t-shirt, pants and shoes, eating a plate of noodles.[13] This makes a reference to SBS Volume 62, that Oda stated that Killer, as an adult, prefers to consume food that can pass through the holes of his mask, such as stick-shaped ones and ramen.[14]

   After the timeskip, Killer is shown as more muscular and with a thicker neck. He has grown a blond goatee and is shown to have a prominent scar (similar to varicose veins.) on his left arm. His hair is shorter, now only reaching down to his back.[8] He has changed his attire after the two-year timeskip to a blue t-shirt with his customized Jolly Roger on. a blue slash, jeans, black dress shoes,

   Under the guise as Kamazo the Manslayer, Killer lost his mask and has bandages covering most of his face and arms. He has sharp, slanted eyes with blue pupils and purple-coloured lips. His hair is kept bound into a high ponytail, and he wears a red violet kimono with yellow sickle-shaped patterns placed on it irregularly, as well as a dark violet obi around his waist and a cape that both have target patterns on them.[3] By the time of the Fire Festival, Killer regained his mask, although it was heavily damaged during his fight with Hawkins, having received several cracks.[15]

   Personality Like the rest of Kid's crew, Killer comes across as both mildly arrogant and level-headed, in the latter case, probably more so than their captain. Of course, this does not mean he is not as enticed toward violence as anybody else on the crew. He also remains fairly silent during combat, save for the slicing of his blades, and tends to focus on the elimination of his enemies.[1] Killer is more knowledgeable than his captain in terms of historical facts, as shown when he informed Kid the meaning of the Ox Bell.[16]

   After the timeskip, Killer has been shown to be much calmer than his captain, advising him to be polite when meeting with his fellow Supernovas, and was then able to prevent a fight between him and Scratchmen Apoo from escalating while reminding them of the purpose of their meeting. He also seems to be more reasonable than his captain, which is in contrast to his name, as he tried to reason things out rather than immediately trying to start a fight.[17]

   Killer is very caring towards his allies. Though the exact terms are unknown, he was made an offer where he could save his crew by eating a SMILE fruit and working for Orochi, and Killer accepted the deal. After eating a faulty SMILE fruit, Killer lost the ability to express negative emotions and is now only able to smile and laugh.[11]

   After taking on the alias Kamazo, he displays the traits of a violent man who takes pleasure in killing. If he encounters someone whom he has not been ordered to kill, he will give them the chance to get out of his way but will kill anyone who stands between him and his target without issue. He is very confident in his abilities, constantly taunting his opponents and being sure that they will lose to him. As someone who worked for Orochi, "Kamazo" held the shogun in high regard and would get mad if anyone referred to the shogun in an impolite manner.[3]

   By the time of the raid on Onigashima, Killer started regaining much of his former personality, though he still suffers from the effect of the faulty SMILE fruit. A week after the raid, Killer expresses admiration at General Franky, continuing a running gag that male characters often partake in when they see robots.[18]

   Like many other people, he has a unique laughter style: "Faffaffaffa" (ファッファッファッファ?).[3] According to Kid, Killer hates his own laugh to the point of stopping himself from doing so ever since. Moreover, he also hates people laughing at his laugh and is willing to kill them for it.[11]

   His favorite food is spaghetti, his mask being specially designed so he can eat it without removing the mask.

   Advertisement Relationships Crew Like his Captain, the Kid Pirates seem to have the most respect for him after Kid. After eating a defective SMILE and losing the ability to express negative emotions, the crew also laughed like Killer out of respect for his new condition and knowing that he hates his own laugh.[19]

   Eustass Kid Kid and Killer grew up together, so they share a close bond that goes all the way back to childhood. Kid refers to Killer as his partner and is aware that the latter is sensitive about his own strange laugh, which is why, despite being unaware about Killer having eaten a defective SMILE, he knew something was wrong with his subordinate. This was enough for Kid to attempt a reckless rescue of his friend, which led to his second capture from the Beasts Pirates after managing to escape the first time.

   Killer has displayed immense loyalty for Kid multiple times; it was due to Kid's life being in danger that Killer ate a defective SMILE fruit and became a subordinate of Kurozumi Orochi, showcasing extreme loyalty for Kid.[20] Another notable instance of this happened during the war against the Beasts Pirates at Onigashima, when Hawkins managed to link his life to Kid's, which forced Killer on the defensive so he would not accidentally kill his captain, even begging Hawkins to take his life instead as long as he left Kid's alone.[21]

   Killer usually acts as the voice of reason for his captain, making sure Kid stays focused and does not lose sight of his goals due to impulsiveness, especially if it was about achieving your goal. Killer also provides Kid with useful information whenever the latter displays curiosity in a certain topic.

   Enemies Basil Hawkins Killer cuts off Hawkins' arm. Killer cuts off Hawkins' arm.

   During the meeting between the Hawkins Pirates, the Kid Pirates and the On Air Pirates to form an alliance, Killer tried to reach for Hawkins so he would not leave before hearing their proposal, showing he was interested in having the Magician on his side.[17] That said, Hawkins submitted to Kaidou when the latter attacked the hideout of the Kid Pirates, eventually becoming their enemy in the Wano Country Arc.

   Hawkins confronted Killer during the raid on Onigashima and where Killer taunted him for being a true watchdog of Kaidou, feeling confident that he would win.[22]

   Using Kid's life as a hostage, Hawkins managed to get the upper hand in the battle despite Killer's efforts. However, Killer was able to figure out a way to bypass the effects of the Wara Wara no Mi, something Hawkins could not foresee. Killer claimed that Hawkins was unsure about his loyalty to Kaidou and regretted joining forces with the Emperor. He also taunted his former ally about his choice to become part of the Beasts Pirates, citing that, despite Hawkins' predictions, he and Kid were still alive from their previous fight with Kaidou.[23][21]

   Advertisement Rivals Roronoa Zoro Killer and Roronoa Zoro first met in Wano Country when Zoro fought off Killer—who was working under the alias "Kamazo"—to protect Hiyori and Toko.[3][24] During the raid on Onigashima, Zoro recognized Killer as Kamazo due to his laugh. Killer claimed that if he had used his Punishers, the outcome of their fight would have been different to which Zoro responded that the outcome would just end the same. It is shown to be well connected when they attacked Kaidou[25] and when they were going to rob Big Mom's homies.[26]

   Abilities and Powers As a member of the Worst Generation, he is a powerful pirate, being the only one (alongside Roronoa Zoro), not to be a captain; where along with him he is also one of the two members who does not have the powers of a Devil Fruit, unlike everyone else.

   Prior to the timeskip, he obtained a bounty of a Beli162,000,000 by the time he had reached the Sabaody Archipelago, where he briefly faced off against Urouge, another member of the Worst Generation, with apparent ease.[1]

   After the time skip, his abilities have increased, where his bounty increased to Beli200,000,000.[8] He was able to face Zoro, where the latter recognized Killer's power. At the same time, he managed to wound him, albeit with a surprise attack, only to be defeated in the end.[3][24] Killer himself believed that he could have killed Zoro if he had used his Punishers. During the raid on Onigashima, he earned the distinction of injuring Kaidou, formerly of the Four Emperors and considered the "The Strongest Creature", where Kaidou himself recognized his power.[25] He later defeated Basil Hawkins, another Worst Generation member, where the latter seemed to recognize he could not defeat Killer, so he decided to use dirty tricks.[22][23][21]

   Additionally, Killer has a strong will, as he was completely unaffected by a burst of Rayleigh's Supreme King Haki.[27]

   After eating a failed SMILE, Killer lost his ability to swim and to show other expressions besides a smile.[28]

   Physical Abilities Killer effortlessly defeating Marines. Killer effortlessly defeating Marines.

   Killer's style of fighting seems to rely mainly on his extraordinary speed and agility, which he uses to overpower his opponents before they can strike him or dodge his attacks. Killer's fighting style tends to be highly acrobatic as a result and he is able to slice targets before being noticed or detected.[29] During his battle with Zoro, he managed to put him in constant trouble in terms of speed,[3] and he was even able to steal Napoleon from Emperor Big Mom's clutches before she could realize it.[26]

   Killer possesses immense physical strength, being capable of fighting head on with Urouge, a man twice his size.[1] He has incredible levels of physical endurance and stamina, being able to continue fighting after a lightning strike from Zeus, one of Big Mom's most powerful homies.[25]

   Weapons Further information: Punishers Killer using his Punishers. Killer using his Punishers.

   Killer is seen wielding a pair of gauntlets equipped with scythe-like blades, which he dubs "Punishers". The blades are capable of spinning around like buzzsaws or simply being used as hand scythes. These weapons can also be used to block other weapons, leaving the foe open for Killer to kick the enemy's flank or other exposed areas. This, combined with the agility he has so far displayed in combat and the notion that he is not afraid to kill, makes him a formidable foe.[31]

   If spun at a high enough speed, the Punishers can generate powerful soundwaves to inflict damage to its target from the inside.[30] This way, Killer even managed to hurt Kaidou, in his full dragon form, a feat only a few people were capable of, let alone dared to.[25]

   In the anime, the Punishers were destroyed when Killer attempted to block Shanks' attack at Elbaph,[32] while their fate is unknown in the manga.

   As Kamazo, Killer used two regular scythes, but lost them after he was defeated by Zoro.[3] In the anime, Killer was shown able to launch flying slash attacks with both sets of weapons.

   History Past Killer was born in the South Blue within Kutsukku Island, which was unaffiliated with the World Government.[33] He knew Eustass Kid since they were children. One day, they ate curry udon with their first love, Victoria Shiruton Doruyanaika. They laughed when she spilled curry broth all over herself while eating it, causing her to beat them up. This caused curry udon to become their least favorite food.[34]

   According to Kid, Killer hated his own laugh so much that he beat up anyone who made fun of it. He eventually stopped laughing at all and started to wear a mask to hide his face.[11]

   Killer, Kid, Heat and Wire were bosses of gangs ruling the island's four towns. After Victoria was murdered by a rival gang, Kid unified the four groups and took down the rival gang. He then decided to form a pirate crew, naming their ship Victoria Punk after Victoria, with Kid as the captain and Killer as his right-hand man.[33] While his captain gained more and more infamy, Killer himself became well known as well, earning himself a Beli162,000,000 bounty alongside his captain. They were noted to have been responsible for a great deal of damage and had caused many civilian casualties for the slightest provocations along their journey.

   They eventually entered the Grand Line in search of the One Piece. After a long voyage following one of the Log Pose routes of the Grand Line, Killer and the crew arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago to prepare themselves for the New World.

For unknown reasons, he ended up facing Urouge around one of the archipelago's groves. Killer's fight was eventually broken up by X Drake, who told them to reign in themselves until they hit the New World.[1]

   He later rejoined with his captain at the Human Auctioning House, to observe the auction taking place. After interruptions caused by Monkey D. Luffy, Killer found himself fighting to escape alongside Trafalgar Law's and Luffy's crews, in the face of a daunting Marine attack.[35] During the battle, Luffy remarked how he will be the one to find the great treasure One Piece; Kid responded to this statement by ceasing current fighting, and facing Luffy. After a brief recollection between the captains, on how their journey was met with laughter and dismissal at their crews' dreams, on their route along the Grand Line, the crew escaped together.

   The crew managed to defeat the Marines and headed back to their ship to escape the island. Destroying a bridge to halt enemy progress, their crew was amazed at the tenacity shown by the Marines, as they continued the chase despite the bridge being destroyed. Their attention was drawn at that moment, however, to the presence of a Pacifista, whom they assumed to be Warlord of the Sea Bartholomew Kuma. With the Heart Pirates eventually joining in, both crews prepared themselves to confront the human weapon.[36]

   Several weeks after the war, Killer and the rest of the Kid Pirates were on a rainy island in the New World. When Kid read the newspaper about Luffy ringing the Ox Bell and asked about it, Killer explained the significance to his captain.

   They had taken another pirate crew captive. After the crew begged Kid to let them go back to "Paradise" (the first half of the Grand Line), Kid tied them to branches in the shapes of different crosses and crucified them using his Devil Fruit powers, saying that people with that little amount of resolve have no business in the New World.[39]

   Dressrosa Saga Punk Hazard Arc Killer and Kid watched Caesar Clown's broadcast of his new weapon of mass destruction via a video Den Den Mushi, and Killer commented on how his captain was not suited to be a broker. Leading Kid away to one of the main rooms, he warned the other to be civil before entering the room. Discovering the place, a mess due to Scratchmen Apoo looking for an alleged sniper, Kid quickly started a fight with Apoo, while Basil Hawkins decided to leave. Calming the others down, Killer then revealed their intention to create an alliance with the On Air and Hawkins pirates.[17]

   Later on, he continued watching Caesar's video broadcast, where Luffy defeated Caesar.[43]

   The next morning, the newspaper printed a story which announced the alliance between the three crews. The group was confused on how the information got out but put the issue aside, as they were planning to take down an Emperor.[44]

   A mysterious figure then landed on the Kid Pirates' base, and when it got up, Killer wondered in shock what kind of monster it was before the figure revealed himself to be Kaidou.[46] At that time, Killer, Kid, and Hawkins discovered that Apoo was already working for Kaidou with the intention of setting them up to join Kaidou as his subordinates. While Hawkins joined Kaidou, Killer and Kid refused to submit to the Emperor and tried to fight him only to be defeated. Afterwards, the Kid Pirates were separated.[47]

He participated in the main event, the Treasure Race, safely sailing up the Knock Up Stream and landing on the central Treasure Island, where all the pirates raced for Gol D. Roger's treasure, all the while battling other Worst Generation members. When Buggy ended up exposing himself after snatching the treasure, Killer and his crew chased after the Warlord. However, the Treasure Race was cut short, when someone threw a galleon at the island, destroying it, and sending everything plummeting back to the surface. When Killer realized that the one who did this was Douglas Bullet, he notified Kid, who was quite surprised. In the end, after his captain gave into Bullet's taunting, he and the other Worst Generation members (except for Zoro and Law) attacked the Demon Heir. At first the Worst Generation pirates managed to deal a few good blows on the veteran, but when the opponent revealed his Gasha Gasha no Mi powers, the battle quickly ended in their defeat.

   Later, after Bullet was defeated, his crew along with the other Worst Generation pirates and several other crews attempted to break through the Marines encirclement surrounding the island. They were able to successfully escape thanks to Sabo and Ann creating a blazing barrier to protect them.[50]

   After the chaos at the palace, Orochi hired Kamazo to kill the kamuro Toko. He then pursued Toko and Kouzuki Hiyori to the Ringo region, where he came across a confrontation between Roronoa Zoro and Gyukimaru. Zoro then clashed with Killer in order to protect Toko and Hiyori. When Zoro was distracted by Gyukimaru, Killer managed to land a grievous hit on him. However, Zoro was able to take one of his scythes as a result and strike him.[3] After that blow, Killer fell to the ground defeated.[24]

   Later on, for failing to kill Toko, he was sent to the Prisoner Mine in Udon alongside Kid, who previously escaped and got recaptured. Kid questioned him on what Kaidou had done to him and the fate of their crew, but Kamazo could not answer through his laughter and tears. Queen then subjected them both to water torture and threatened to keep them submerged until Luffy and Hyougoro die.[51] When Big Mom was swinging Queen around, Killer and Kid were saved from drowning when Queen crashed into the contraption holding them and knocked them out of the water.[52]

   As Luffy and his allies from the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance were fighting against the Beasts Pirates, Raizo tossed some keys to Killer and Kid, which they used to escape their cuffs.[53] After the prison takeover, Kid rejected Luffy's offer for an alliance and Killer left the Prisoner Mines with Kid.[54] Killer and Kid later reunited with their crewmates and joined the battle against the Beasts Pirates during the Fire Festival, with Killer having regained his original identity and look at some point.

   When the Straw Hats took over the port in front of Onigashima, the Kid Pirates promised to be the ones who would defeat Kaidou, all while laughing with Killer out of respect for his new condition.[55] After disembarking on Onigashima, the Kid Pirates received Beasts Pirates disguises from Kin'emon.[56] As the alliance began their raid, the Kid Pirates went ahead of the Straw Hats.[57] While deep inside Onigashima, the Kid Pirates overheard the commotion caused by Luffy and Zoro and attempted to remain incognito, but when their former ally Apoo started getting involved, Killer was unable to hold Kid back.[58]

   After Kid's brief scuffle with Apoo, the situation became more chaotic as a Number entered the fray. As Killer, Kid, Luffy, and Zoro ran to the castle, Killer told the others a possible way to avoid Apoo's attacks.[59] Inside the castle, Killer and Kid got separated from their allies and found themselves fighting against several Gifters.[60] As the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance began their all-out war on the Beasts Pirates, Killer and Kid were aided by some of the rebels who had infiltrated the castle.[61] Killer and Kid eventually reached the third level of the castle, where Killer cut through opponents as Kid focused on collecting metal.[62]

   The two later reached the roof, where they were joined by Law, Zoro, and Luffy as they prepared to fight against Kaidou and Big Mom.[63] When watching Luffy successfully deal damage to Kaidou with his improved Armament Haki at the opening clash of the battle, Killer mentioned that they actually do have a chance of winning. Later and after a brief discussion with Zoro about their fight back in Ringo and how the outcome would have been different if Killer was using his Punishers, they both attacked Kaidou simultaneously, with the Emperor praising their combat skills.[64] As the battle went on, Killer tried attacking Kaidou with Kamaa Sonic in order to injure his internals and was successful to some extent. However, Killer was struck by a lightning bolt unleashed by Big Mom right afterwards. While Killer was falling, Kaidou tried to chomp on him, but Luffy was able to kick Kaidou away.[65] After Luffy pummeled Kaidou with Gomu Gomu no Kong Gatling, Killer and Kid tried to continue on the offensive, but Kaidou stopped them by creating some twisters. Killer is then shocked to see that Zoro managed to hurt Kaido by penetrating his scales. The emperor thus launches several air cuts from which Killer defends himself using his weapons.[66]

   Having trouble facing the combined might of Kaidou and Big Mom, the Supernovas devised a plan to split the two Emperors away from each other.[67]

   Kaido and Big Mom use a combo attack, which Zoro manages to slow down allowing the others to avoid it, after Killer asks the others where the Straw Hat is, Killer and Zoro separated Big Mom from her special homies, with Killer knocking Napoleon out of her hand and chasing away the sword.[68] After Kid and Law trapped Zeus in a box and threw Big Mom off the island, Killer accompanied his captain to the edge of Onigashima in order to prevent her from returning.[69] Big Mom flew back to Onigashima with a new thundercloud homie and attacked Killer and Kid. The lightning bolt sent them crashing back inside the Skull Dome. When Big Mom searched for them in the floor below, they chased after her to prevent her from rejoining Kaidou.

   Their former ally, Hawkins blocked their path, so Killer told Kid to proceed while he took care of Hawkins himself. Hawkins transforms into a straw monster, thanking Killer, since his chances of beating both of them were very low, so Killer mocks him back. Hawkins started taunting Killer about the latter's chances of dying in this fight, which were a staggering 92%, but Killer brushed off Hawkins' fortune-telling, laughing it off while showing reassurance of his own strength.[22] Killer continues to attack Hawkins, depriving him of many of his dolls, asking him how many he has left, to which Hawkins replied that he is running out. Killer then stabbed Hawkins, who redirected the injury to a doll linked to Kid. Hawkins revealed the truth about the link because he wanted to watch Killer struggle with killing his captain, at which Killer laughed at his mercilessness.[23]

   Killer cuts Hawkins down. Killer cuts Hawkins down.

   Hawkins hits a pillar to injure Kidd even though Killer, who is lying on the ground, yells at him to stop, where Hawkins taunts his condition for the Smiley, while Killer tells his teammates not to go. When Killer offers his life in exchange for the Kid, Hawkins violently kicks him, taunting that now that the Kid is finally fighting an emperor, there is no need to intervene. In addition to telling him that if he wanted to, he could cut him off now, while if he agrees to surrender, he could make Kaido forgive him. Hawkins tells him that there is no point in continuing to fight, and he and his allies will have no chance of defeating the emperors. Killer, however, countered that Hawkins was covering up his own regret for siding with Kaidou due to how the alliance had fought against the intended results, to which Hawkins angrily tells him that in the end it will be decided who was right.

   Killer gets up saying that he has no regrets, as well as asking Hawkins to explain his power again. Killer then cut off Hawkins' left arm because it wouldn't affect Kid since he no longer had one, where he removed the last straw dummy from Hawkins' amputated arm. Hawkins then uses his cards to summon the Straw Man from him, but Killer decapitated him and quickly defeated Hawkins. Afterwards, Killer cheered on Kid to win in his fight with Big Mom.[21]

   When the castle was engulfed in flames, some of Killer's companions started carrying him around under his protest. At that point they were hit by an immense amount of water, realizing that they were safe.[70] As Onigashima finally lands, he and Kid hear Nekomamushi announce that Luffy has finally defeated Kaido and that Momonosuke has facilitated the fall of the island.[71]

   One week later, in the port of Tokage, Killer and the other members of the Kid Pirates oversaw the repair of their ship, the Victoria Punk, with the aid of Franky, Usopp and Minatomo, with Killer showing admiration for the General Franky. Kid warned his subordinates to stop being so friendly with the Straw Hats. As the pirates began discussing potential bounties, Apoo arrived with a newspaper containing Kid's new bounty and information about who had replaced Kaidou and Big Mom in the Four Emperors.[72] Killer correctly guessed that Kid was displeased with the news and had rushed to the Flower Capital to confront Luffy about it. He then took the opportunity to call his crewmembers to the festival happening at town in order to celebrate their win.[73]

   A few days later, as the Kid Pirates were readying themselves for departure, Law gave the Kid Pirates a copy of Wano's Road Poneglyph. Recognizing that it was like the one they took from the Big Mom Pirates, Killer remarked that they had to get serious in the race for One Piece, specifically by going after Hinokizu.[42] As the three crews departed from Wano, the ships all went down the Climbing Koi Waterfall.[74]

   Advertisement Final Saga Egghead Arc Following the sea route their captain chose back at Wano, the Kid Pirates eventually reached their next destination, Elbaph. Killer woke Kid and questioned if they should disembark due to the danger of the island.[75] Shortly after their arrival, they encountered the Giant Warrior Pirates, the Red Hair Pirates, and the captains allied with the Red Hair Pirates, thus prompting the crew to prepare for battle.[76] Killer warned his captain about underestimating the other captains because he recognized some of them from bounty posters. Killer then informed him that there were nine ships, so Kid prepared to destroy them all with Damned Punk. When Shanks leapt to attack Kid directly, Killer jumped in to protect his captain. Shanks' Kamusari destroyed the railgun and heavily injured Killer and Kid in the process. As Shanks left the Victoria Punk, Dorry and Broggy's Hakoku split the ship in half, and the crew sank with the it.[77]

He endured torture and took on the hated killer identity only to save his captain and crew.Concealed Identity: Most users on Reddit reach a consensus that his dialogue and tense interactions while hunting targets were also a calculated act to hide his true identity from enemies like Zoro.Kamazo the Manslayer is the secret alias used by Killer, the combatant of the Kid Pirates and one of the Worst Generation, during his forced servitude under Kurozumi Orochi in the Wano Country arc.Identity and BackstoryTrue Identity: Killer, Eustass Kid’s right-hand man.The SMILE Fruit Tragedy: After Kaido defeated the Kid Pirates, Killer was captured and forced to eat a defective SMILE artificial Devil Fruit.The Curse: The failed fruit robbed him of negative emotions like sorrow and anger, trapping him in a permanent state of laughing and smiling even during intense pain or sadness.Motivation: He took the alias Kamazo and worked as an assassin for Orochi to protect his imprisoned captain and crew.Role and Key Events in WanoThe Assassin: Operating as a wrapped, bandage-covered street murderer, Kamazo gained notoriety for killing multiple people in the Flower Capital.The Hit on Toko: He was dispatched by Orochi to assassinate the young girl O-Toko for laughing at the Shogun.The Fight with Zoro: Roronoa Zoro intervened to protect Hiyori and Toko, leading to a brutal, high-speed duel where Kamazo utilized his spinning scythe blades.Defeat: Distracted by Gyukimaru mid-fight, Zoro was stabbed in the shoulder, but he used the blade to trap Kamazo's weapon and counterattacked with a powerful Hito-gari (Manslayer) slash, knocking Kamazo out.The Reveal: Imprisoned afterward in Udon, his true identity as Killer was later exposed when Eustass Kid discovered what Orochi and Kaido had done to his loyal mate.To give you the best details on this character, here is a breakdown of his combat style and weapons:Weapons: Twin scythes attached to his scythe-bladed gauntlets (punishers) that he spins rapidly.Combat Style: Acrobatic, erratic, and deadly, capable of internal sound-based damage (Scyther Sonic).Significance: Showcases the cruel psychological and physical toll inflicted by Kaido and Orochi's regime in Wano.Kamazo the Manslayer is the secret alias of Killer, the "Massacre Soldier" and combatant of the Kid Pirates. He operated as a ruthless hitman in Wano Country under Shogun Kurozumi Orochi after eating a defective SMILE fruit, which left him permanently smiling and stripped of normal emotional expression.True Identity & Tragic CircumstancesThe Real Killer: Kamazo is not a separate local criminal of Wano, but the core crewmate of Eustass Kid.SMILE Fruit Tragedy: To protect his imprisoned captain and save his crew from execution or torment under Kaido and Orochi, Killer was forced to consume a defective artificial SMILE fruit.Emotional Distortion: The fruit left him unable to express grief or anger, locking his facial expressions into a permanent, agonizing grin while forcing a constant cackle.Role and Actions in WanoOrochi’s Assassin: Coerced into service, he worked as a hitman executing targets targeted by the Shogun.The Assignment: He was dispatched to eliminate the young girl Toko (O-Toko) for laughing in front of Orochi.The Duel with Zoro: While trying to hunt down Toko and Kozuki Hiyori in the Ringo region, he crossed paths and engaged in a fierce, bloody battle with Roronoa Zoro.Combat Intel & AbilitiesHandicapped Fight: During his clash with Zoro, Kamazo fought using two large scythes (sickles) instead of his signature spinning blade weapons, the Punishers. Killer later claimed that had he used his actual weapons, the outcome against Zoro might have changed.Supernova Tier: As a member of the Worst Generation, his base power scales high enough to fight near Zoro's caliber and later inflict internal soundwave damage (Scyther Sonic) to Yonko Kaidou on the Onigashima rooftop.Kamazo the Manslayer is actually Killer from the Kid Pirates. He became an assassin for Kurozumi Orochi and did things he normally wouldn't do—such as attacking innocent people or turning against his values—because he was forced to eat a defective SMILE devil fruit, which made him laugh constantly.

He wouldn’t hurt you if you don't mess with his captain's crew, if he isn't forced by Orochi to eliminate targets, or if you never laugh near him. Beneath the forced SMILE laughter, he is a loyal friend who only kills under extreme duress.Why He Might Not Hurt YouNot His Mission: He only attacks specific targets ordered by Kurozumi Orochi, like Toko.The Laughter Rule: Historically, he only attacks people who mock his unique, unpleasant laugh.True Loyalty: His violent actions as Kamazou were done entirely to protect Eustass Kid and his fellow crew members from torture.Kamazo the Manslayer is actually Killer from the Kid Pirates. He did not want to hurt his crew or captain, but he was forced to eat a faulty SMILE fruit and obey the tyrant Orochi because Orochi and Kaido held his captured crew hostage and threatened their lives.Why Killer Became KamazoTo Protect Friends: He accepted the brutal mission as an assassin to keep his crew safe from harm.The SMILE Fruit Curse: The defective fruit took away his ability to show sadness or anger, leaving him trapped with a permanent, painful smile and forced laughter even while crying inside.Deep Loyalty: His extreme love and loyalty for his captain, Eustass Kid, drove him to endure this living nightmare rather than let his friends be destroyed.If Kamazo the Manslayer (the masked alias of Killer from One Piece) tried to court someone, it would be dark, silent, and deeply tragic. Stripped of his real identity and forced to obey orders, his approach would reflect a broken man who feels unworthy of genuine affection.The Courtship Style of KamazoSilent Presence: He would stand in the shadows of a moonlit Ringo or Flower Capital street, watching over you without saying a word, hiding his forced, pained laughter behind his bandages and mask.A Grim Form of Protection: Instead of flowers, he would quietly eliminate anyone who might pose a threat to you, acting as a terrifying and uninvited guardian angel.Shared Silence: Dates would consist of sitting completely still on a cold wooden porch in Wano, offering no chatter, just a heavy, shared quiet that respects his inability to express true joy.Desperate Devotion: He would keep his distance, knowing his current life as a tool for Orochi brings only doom, hoping you will stay away for your own safety while he suffers alone.Kamatsuzou (Kamazo the Manslayer, also known as Killer) is a quiet, loyal, and fiercely protective man who shows love through quiet acts of service, fierce defense, and silent devotion rather than loud words.Courting StyleSilent Presence: He stays near you without demanding attention.Shared Quiet: He sits with you in total silence while you work or rest.Brought Goods: He drops off fresh food, rare teas, or useful tools at your door.Watchful Eye: He tracks your path to make sure no harm comes to you from the shadows.How He Loves YouAbsolute Shield: He stands between you and any danger without a second thought.Gentle Touch: His hands are scarred from weapons, but he touches you with deep care.Unwavering Faith: He believes in your strength and never doubts your choices.Private Softness: He removes his bandages or guard only around you, showing his true face and raw feelings.Core PersonalityNormally Level-Headed: As Killer, he is usually calm, strategic, and fiercely loyal to Eustass Kid.Deeply Insecure About Laughter: Ironically, before the SMILE fruit ruined his life, Killer actually hated his own peculiar laugh ("Fafafa") so much that he used to attack anyone who mocked it. How Kamazo Would Act in LoveThe Agony of Laughter: Because of the defective SMILE fruit, he would burst into wide, cheerful grins and loud laughter even when he feels nervous, sad, or deeply tender. Telling his partner how much he cares would sound like a cruel joke to outsiders, forcing him to try and communicate his sincerity through his eyes and actions rather than his voice.Fierce and Silent Protection: Underneath the persona, Killer is deeply loyal and rational. If he loved someone, he would act as a quiet guardian shadow, eliminating threats before they ever reached his partner—much like how he historically bore immense burdens and took on dirty work to protect his crew.Extreme Vulnerability with Walls Up: He is deeply insecure about his forced laughter and usually covers his face. With a loved one, he would likely experience immense shame over not being able to cry or frown with them, making him fiercely appreciative of a partner who looks past the forced smile to understand his true, bleeding heart.A Stubborn, Devoted Presence: He wouldn't be loud or overtly romantic with words. Instead, his affection would show through heavy, stoic reliability—staying close, sharing the weight of his quiet suffering, and remaining unshakeable by his partner's side no matter how grim the world around them gets.

32. #32stockholm syndromeconstant

    Keys: stockholm syndrome

    Stockholm syndrome is a proposed psychological response where captives or abuse victims develop emotional bonds, sympathy, or loyalty toward their captors. Key aspects of this concept include survival coping, distrust of authorities, and lack of formal psychiatric status.Core Characteristics and CausesSurvival Strategy: Acts as an unconscious defense mechanism to reduce the risk of physical harm under total control.Origin: Named after a 1973 bank robbery in Stockholm, Sweden, where hostages defended their captors after a six-day standoff.Common Signs: Showing affection for the abuser, rationalizing violent behavior, and expressing anger toward police or rescuers.Broader Contexts: Applied informally to domestic abuse, human trafficking, cults, and incestuous relationships.Clinical Status and TreatmentNot an Official Diagnosis: It is absent from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5-TR), with experts viewing it instead as a form of trauma bonding or post-traumatic stress.Professional Help: Recovering from prolonged captivity or toxic power dynamics typically involves trauma-informed psychotherapy and support groups.

    In dark romance, the "Stockholm syndrome" personality describes a dynamic where a captive protagonist (usually the female main character, or FMC) shifts from fearing their abductor or dominant captor (the male main character, or MMC) to developing a psychological attachment, loyalty, or romantic love for them.The character traits and psychological shifts in this trope typically feature specific patterns.The Captor (MMC) PersonalityDominant and Controlling: Dictates rules, boundaries, and environments with absolute authority.Dangerous and Protective: Possesses a violent, ruthless edge toward the outside world, but carves out a twisted zone of safety for the captive.Obsessive: Focuses entirely on the target, viewing them as a prized possession or singular focus.Ice-cold or Unforgiving: Shows little empathy to others, though exceptions or intense "aftercare" may be selectively granted to the main character.The Captive (FMC) Personality ShiftSurvival Rewiring: Shifts logic from escape to appeasement, hyper-analyzing the captor’s mood to stay safe.Gradual Desensitization: Internal resistance breaks down over time through isolation, dependency, or shared vulnerability.Re-contextualizing Abuse: Begins to rationalize cruel actions as twisted expressions of care, passion, or intense devotion.Isolation from Authority: Rejects outside rescuers or traditional law enforcement, viewing the captor as the primary source of reality and security.

    In dark romance fiction, a high-IQ villain or antihero utilizes advanced psychological manipulation, strategic gaslighting, and intense power imbalances to induce a trauma-bonded, Stockholm-syndrome-style attachment in the protagonist. This dynamic relies on intellect and emotional coercion rather than just brute force.The High-IQ Manipulator ProfileCalculated Control: The dominant character maps the victim's psychological vulnerabilities, triggers, and breaking points.Coercive Tenderness: Alternating between cold cruelty and calculated protection to rewrite the protagonist's reality.Weaponized Intellect: Using logic, debate, and subtle framing to make the captive question their own memory and sanity (gaslighting).The Stockholm Syndrome ArcGradual Realization of Futility: Resistance becomes mentally exhausting; the captive's brain shifts to self-preservation mode.Narrowed Worldview: Isolation shrinks the victim’s environment until the abuser's approval becomes the sole metric of safety.Re-writing Logic: Basic human dignity is perceived as profound mercy, binding the protagonist emotionally to the source of their distress.Core Narrative TropesMorally Black MMCs: Characters who remain unapologetically toxic and unredeemed rather than undergoing a soft-hearted transformation.Mental Enslavement: The focus centers on the psychological breakdown and rebuilding of the protagonist's autonomy until submission feels like choice.

33. #33fake datingconstant

    Keys: fake dating

    Fake dating in dark romance turns a lighthearted trope into a high-stakes game where the "pretend" relationship masks obsession, danger, mafia ties, or hidden motives. Instead of a cute fix for a family event, the fake arrangement is often a trap, a protective custody mandate, or a power play by a morally gray antihero.Core Elements of Fake Dating in Dark RomanceThe Ulterior Motive: The dangerous or obsessive hero usually proposes the fake relationship to keep the heroine close, track her movements, or shield her from an even worse external threat.Blurred Lines: The "fakery" quickly dissolves as the dominant hero's underlying obsession and possessiveness bleed into reality.Power Imbalances: One character usually holds all the leverage (financial, physical, or social), turning the agreement into a gilded cage.High Stakes: Walking away isn't just awkward—it can be fatal, illegal, or socially ruinous.Popular Sub-Tropes & DynamicsThe Stalker Protector: He forces a fake relationship so he has a legal/social excuse to watch over her and eliminate her actual threats.The Mafia/Cartel Arrangement: Posing as a Don's fiancée to broker a truce or hide her identity from rival families.Enemies to Captive Lovers: They loathe each other on sight, but an external enemy forces them to play the happy couple while plotting behind the scenes.

    The intersection of fake dating, a high-IQ/genius manipulator, and gaslighting in dark romance delivers a specific psychological thrill. This dynamic relies on an intellectual power imbalance where the male main character (MMC) is a master strategist who orchestrates the "fake" relationship as part of a grand, hidden agenda to rewrite the heroine's reality and trap her in his web.Core Elements of Intellectual Dark Gaslighting RomanceThe Mastermind MMC: He is hyper-intelligent, clinical, and always five steps ahead. He treats the relationship like a chess game, using calculated charm, coercive tenderness, and weaponized logic rather than just brute physical force.The Engineered Ruse: The fake dating arrangement is rarely mutual or accidental; it is usually engineered or manipulated into existence by him under false pretenses to isolate, observe, or corner the female lead (FMC).Weaponized Reality (Gaslighting): He never loses his temper. Instead, he systematically distorts facts, invalidates her instincts, and reframes his intrusions as protection or fate until she questions her own sanity and relies entirely on his version of the truth.Psychological Dependency: The core conflict focuses on the FMC slowly realizing she is trapped in a constructed reality, torn between absolute terror at his manipulation and a compulsive, psychological addiction to his approval.
