Appearance

Largo presents as a tall man got up like a mariachi, with brown hair, a thin mustache, and a chin and nose both unusually long. A drowsy look rarely leaves his face, and tiny pale green studs sit in his ears. Over an unbuttoned jacket and matching flared pants he throws a purple poncho edged in color, tops it with a wide-brimmed sombrero, ties a light-red foulard at his throat, wears pointed boots, and keeps a guitar either gripped in hand or slung at his back.

Personality

Leaning hard into a Mexican caricature, Largo strums his guitar in lament and sprinkles Spanish words such as amor, senor, and senorita through his speech. He nods off into siestas at the most ill-timed moments, and while this aggravates his crew, they dread rousing him, aware of the rage it brings on. Under the sleepy front sits true cruelty, on display when he vowed to wipe out all of Little East Blue unless Boss was handed over. His laughter, a shik-shik-shik, comes out sounding nearly like sobbing.

Abilities

Even setting his Devil Fruit aside, Largo is a hardy and able combatant, brushing off a joint strike from Sanji and Gear 2 Luffy as if untouched, and nimble enough to slip past Luffy's blazing Gear 2 blows. He sings and plays guitar with skill and can summon his vessel with nothing more than a whistle. His real edge is the Ami Ami no Mi, a Paramecia fruit letting him spin nets from an exceedingly sticky, tough, high-tension substance. By gulping down materials like metal, scalding water, or fire, he lends his nets those traits, and he can even reshape his own body into a net to soak up blunt impacts or cage a victim within himself.

Through the Little East Blue Arc, Largo was promised charge of a 51st division by Shiki on the condition that he capture Boss, a giant beetle escaped from Indigo's making. The crew came ashore where Boss hid, but Largo slipped into one of his siestas, leaving his brother Corto to head the hunt against the islanders and the visiting Straw Hats. Once roused, Largo loosed his net powers and bagged Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji while nearly taking Boss, until Luffy broke loose and dueled him one-on-one along the shore, finishing him by hammering him back into his own vessel with a Gear 3 blow. With the battle lost, the townsfolk locked Largo away beside the rest of his crew.
