Bellett

Character

Born a prince of a kingdom never named, Bellett slid into piracy and wound up locked inside Impel Down. Bent on avenging himself against Emporio Ivankov, he was instead turned into a woman by Ivankov's hormone ability.

Appearance

While male, Bellett was a heavy, broad-framed man with tan skin and blond hair, plus a black beard. The clearest marking on him was a long scar that traveled from the left shoulder down over his chest, and he wore camouflage-patterned green pants, shown as plain green in the anime.

Once Ivankov's Emporio Onna Hormone hit, almost every part of him shifted apart from that scar and his blond hair. The female form was far more slender and full-figured, and for no clear reason the anime even swapped her skin tone between the two states.

Personality

While a man, Bellett seethed with hatred for Ivankov, holding him responsible for reshaping his father into an okama and casting both his family and his nation into ruin. That grudge fueled his quest for payback. Yet the moment he was made a woman, the swagger collapsed and she turned timid and embarrassed about her altered body.

History

About fifteen years prior to his imprisonment, Bellett was the son of a king and thus a prince, until his father journeyed to Kamabakka Kingdom and returned an okama. The abrupt transformation devastated both the royal house and the realm, costing Bellett his rank and driving him to take up piracy merely to survive. He was eventually caught and condemned to Impel Down, where he started scheming against a fellow prisoner, Ivankov.

Carrying a bazooka, he barged into Newkama Land and declared he meant to kill the okama queen. As Ivankov played at being frightened, the annoyed Bellett let a cannonball fly, only to have a single Death Wink bounce it straight back at him. His sturdy male body endured the impact, but while he fought to rise, Ivankov dropped down in front of him and used the Horu Horu no Mi to remake him as a woman. Given the option to join the Newkama, the mortified Bellett bolted instead.
