Devil Dias

A towering, powerfully built figure, Dias can lift an average woman with just one hand. His black hair rises upward and divides into two trailing tips. Tattooed across his chest is a set of devil-like eyes, and a stitched scar crosses the area of his belly. For clothing he wore boots, light-colored pants kept up by a doubled brown belt, and a fur-caped jacket in brown befitting a captain, with an explosive collar fastened at his throat. Seared into his back was the Soaring Dragon's Hoof, the mark branding him as property of the World Nobles like every other slave.

The little screen time he receives shows a man frantic to break loose from the abuse of the World Nobles. What spurred him was less freedom for its own sake than the ache to go home and see his wife and son just once more.

By his own telling, Dias had a wife and an infant son before he assembled the Acumate Pirates and built up a 60,000,000 Berry bounty. Slave traders seized him somewhere on the Grand Line and sold him into Saint Rosward's collection of captured captains, where he was brutalized and dosed with tranquilizers to keep him docile. When one batch of sedative fell short, he took the opening and tried to run.

On Sabaody Archipelago he dashed through the area, pleading with anyone he met for something to shatter his collar and chains so he could reach his family, his boy still a baby the day he left. With nobody willing to defy the World Nobles in time, the device around his neck blew apart. Sentomaru looked on and gave a short account of his past, judging that such a pirate could never have endured the New World. Luffy moved to help but was held back by Hatchan, since interfering would have offended the World Nobles. Rosward's dog Saru then urinated on him, Shalria shot him, and the Marines carried him off.
