Appearance

Standing tall in a torn royal guard uniform from Drum Kingdom, this fusion is marked by an elongated, witch-like nose. Metal braces clamp around both his arms and legs, while sharp spikes jut from his arms and end in oversized skewers at their tips. A high helmet bristling with points sits atop his head.

Personality

Single-minded devotion to Wapol drives this soldier, just as it does the other fusions made alongside him. He follows his orders without question and fixates entirely on tearing down Bighorn, the target his master has set for him.

History

Before the merging took place, the guards who would form him escaped Drum Island in Wapol's company. There the king came into possession of a devil fruit, the Baku Baku no Mi, handed over to him by Miss All Sunday. Back on Drum, Wapol swallowed his soldiers whole and produced combined warriors from them, this spiked fusion among the lot.

Sent to level Bighorn, the fusions breached the town with Cannon Man's artillery and pushed inward until Zoro leapt into them and scattered their formation. The spiked soldier struck down a townsman with ease, then drew fire from Usopp; a close-range Hissatsu Kaen Boshi left him untouched, and he simply brushed the flames away before charging the sniper, who outran him. Squaring off against Zoro next, he was outmatched and took a cut across the waist that dropped him to the ground.

Later he and Pigman cornered Zoro against a wall, each pinning one of the swordsman's arms while Cannon Man readied a finishing blow. The strike never landed: Luffy brought down Wapol, the fruit's binding power dissolved, the soldiers split back into separate men, and they surrendered.
