Killer •one piece•

Killer (キラー, Kirā), known as the Loyal Soldier (殺戮武人, Satsuriku Bujin), is a pirate from the South Blue who acts as a combatant for the Kid Pirates. As one of the eleven Supernovas who landed on Sabaody two years ago, he is part of what is known as "the worst generation" of pirates in history. In Wano Country, Killer worked for a time for Kurozumi Orochi as a street assassin under the pseudonym Kamazo the Ripper (人斬り鎌ぞう, Hitokiri Kamazō?) after consuming a defective SMILE.

Appearance

Killer is a tall, burly man. He is characterized by wearing a mask. He also wears cowboy-style pants, a black shirt with white polka dots, and a red sash. His face has not yet been seen, so his facial features are unknown, but it can be seen that he has long, blonde hair. After the time skip, he is much more muscular, has a goatee, and has longer hair. His attire also changes, being jeans and a blue tank top with what appears to be his own Jolly Roger. The colored lines and design of his mask also change. Like Kamazo, Killer has his face devoid of his iconic mask, showing bandages covering his entire face, as well as long, wavy hair tied into a long ponytail. He wears a dark kimono with sickle-shaped patterns placed on it irregularly, as well as an obi around his waist and a cape with target patterns on it.

Personality

Like the rest of the crew, Killer is a somewhat arrogant and brawling individual; in some cases even more so than his captain. Of course, this has nothing to do with his calm temperament. During combat, he is rather silent, the only thing you can hear being the whirling of his sickles, and he tends to focus on eliminating the enemy. Killer is much more knowledgeable than his captain on some historical facts as he demonstrated when he informed Kid of the meaning of the Ox Bell. After the timeskip, Killer has been shown to be a much more diplomatic person than his captain, advising him to be polite to his fellow Worst Generation members, and later managing to calm down a brawl between him and Scratchmen Apoo by reminding them of what they had been summoned for. He also appears to be much more reasonable than his captain, which conflicts with his name, as he tried to talk things out instead of picking a fight. After consuming a defective SMILE, Killer can no longer express any emotion other than happiness, laughing. Like Kamazo, he is a violent and bloodthirsty man who enjoys killing. If he encounters someone he has not been ordered to kill, he will give them a chance to get out of his way, but will kill anyone who stands between him and his target without a problem. He is very confident in his abilities, to the point of being arrogant, as he constantly mocks his opponents and is certain that they will lose to him. Like other characters in the series, Killer has a distinctive laugh: "Fafafa". Killer appears to have a complex about his laugh to the point of beating up anyone who laughs at it, as stated by Kid.

Relations

Eustass Kid: Killer and Kid are childhood friends, as well as the founders of their pirate gang. Killer always tries to keep his captain calm, being the critical and reasoned voice in dangerous situations while Kid shows his fury and hyperactivity. Despite what the Beasts Pirates did to him, Killer remains loyal to them. Killer's loyalty to Kid is such that, seeing that Basil Hawkins had obtained a straw man from him, he implored him to forgive his captain, even offering his life in exchange.

Skills and powers

Killer is a fearsome pirate and combatant. His skills have earned him a bounty of 200,000,000 Belly, which is very impressive for a rookie, even within the Grand Line. Like his captain, he was able to resist Rayleigh's Silvers Haki. Killer is a highly skilled fighter, having clashed with a fellow Worst Generation member, Roronoa Zoro, who recognized his skill, and managed to injure him with the unwitting help of the monk Gyukimaru. Killer's fighting style seems to rely primarily on speed and agility which he uses to overpower his opponent before they can attack, or to dodge attacks. He was able to fight his fellow Supernova Urouge, although the latter had not increased his muscle mass.

Devil Fruit

Main article: SMILE Killer consumed a SMILE, which turned out to be defective. Because of this, the only thing the fruit has done is take away his ability to swim and express emotions other than laughter.

Right

Main article: Haki Killer can use both Kenbunshoku Haki and Busoshoku Haki, but his level of usage in both cases is unknown.

History/Past

Killer was born in the South Blue. While young, he developed a crush on the same girl as Kid. One day the three of them were eating curry udon, both laughing when she spilled the food on her clothes. The girl beat them both up and never saw them again, while the two boys became friends after that. At some point, Killer developed a huge complex about his laughter, beating up anyone who laughed at him. He eventually stopped laughing, and hid his face under his trademark mask.
