Appearance

Towering and swine-shaped, Pluton carries the bulk of a small building. Crimson eyes sit above a snout fitted with tubes that snake down toward his shoulders, and his hide is a rough patchwork of dark flesh mended with gray and red stitching.

His wardrobe layers red trousers beneath a shirt sewn from mismatched scraps of brown, yellow, green, and gray. A rib cage hangs across the whole ensemble, and pig skulls ornament each shoulder.

Personality

Pluton shares the mindset of the other self-styled kings: a covetous, dominion-hungry despot bent on seizing the surface for himself. He revels in the slaughter of the humans he kills and scorns them for their gluttony and for burying the world under useless clutter.

History

Long dormant beneath the earth, Pluton stirs awake as filth builds across the planet and erupts into Y-City, laying waste to the streets. He is thought to have ripped apart much of the city by inhaling debris and buildings through his oversized nostrils, a trick that pairs with the ground-shaking might expected of a Dragon-level threat.

As the monster moves to crush a helpless child, Genos intervenes to shield the boy and stalls the giant long enough for Saitama to arrive. The King of the Underworld curses the heavens as he falls, joining the long roster of foes undone by one punch. He wields a three-pronged pitchfork in one hand and an oversized machete in the other, and he later turns up as a playable fighter in the Road to Hero games.
