Appearance

Spikes bristle across the body of this hulking, aqua-skinned fish-man, and his mouth is lined with sharp teeth. Gold jewelry rounds out his look, a heavy chain ending in a large wolf pendant plus a pair of spiked wristbands. A striped red-and-white shirt rides far too short on his frame, leaving his belly on display.

Personality

Harry brims with self-belief, convinced he could handle the entire Straw Hat crew on his own. He has a shrewd streak too, talking a whole crowd of fish-men into working for him on short notice. That cunning has limits, though. He swallows Nami's bluffs whole and keeps insulting his partner Reira by accident. A verbal tic of his is tacking his own name onto the end of his sentences.

Abilities

Fish-man heritage gives Harry the muscle of ten ordinary men, freedom to remain submerged indefinitely, and sharp agility in the water, where his strength doubles to that of twenty men. His signature trick is launching the spines on his body as projectiles. With Hari Daikaiten, the Rotating Needle Spray, he fires those needles outward in a full ring around himself.

His story plays out across the Drayke Pirates' hunt for the runaways Atoli and Dias. Placed in charge of the capture once the children reached the Grand Line, Harry recruited local fish-men with promises of meeting beautiful women, then took the fight to the Straw Hats himself after his hirelings lost, only to be beaten and driven off by Laboon. Paired with Reira to gather herbs for the Ryuumonkou, he menaced the girl Maya, poisoned a village well, and triggered an explosion that shattered two giant eggs and woke a slumbering Sea King beneath the island. After stealing the needed Dokudamin, his crew sailed to Rainbow Island, ambushed the children, and beat Dias near to death before the Straw Hats intervened and routed the executives. Harry and Reira fell first in the final chase, and once Drayke was defeated, Harry rafted away from the island alongside his captain.
