Tigerman
CharacterTigerman is a tiger-themed SMILE user serving the New Donquixote Family, created as an antagonist for the stage production One Piece Premier Show 2021. Posted as a gatekeeper, he clashes with the Straw Hats before falling to Chopper.
Appearance
Eating a Tiger SMILE left this otherwise ordinary-sized man wrapped almost head to toe in striped yellow and black fur, the exceptions being his chin, belly, and lower back. Feline traits came with the fruit: a tiger's snout, sharp fangs, pointed ears, and clawed hands. The dark fur atop his head is styled upward into a mohawk stripe. He finishes the look with a collar at his throat and a white sash knotted at the waist.
Personality
The source paints Tigerman in simple strokes: a devoted servant of the New Donquixote Family. He guarded whatever Kardia assigned to him and threw himself at the Straw Hats without hesitation, a henchman defined by loyalty more than any deeper character.
Abilities
Tigerman carried enough fighting skill to be trusted with guarding the entrance doors. Teaming with his comrade Llamaman, he managed to take down both Usopp and Chopper. That edge proved short-lived, however, since a rematch with Chopper ended in his swift defeat. His power comes from an artificial Zoan, the Tiger SMILE, which grafted a tiger's nose, fangs, and ears onto him and clothed his body in the striped fur.
