#faust one piece

[ulysses000]

I didn't see au about Niji running away from Germa so……

Niji escaped from Germa as a kid after Sanji because as Sanji escaped, Judge became more demanding on the brothers' training. Specifically Niji got a lot of flak because of his bursts of electricity. Sometimes in a fit of emotion, he could knock out the entire staff and half the equipment nearby… "And the son of the great Judge should not be so weak and incapable." …… So Niji decided to run away to make a name for himself and prove to his father what he was worth.

He travelled around North Blue for a while, tearing himself away from his father, who immediately put a bounty on him because "bandits have stolen his son, bring him back at any cost". So on one island he ran into Hawkins and his crew. He noticed that there was a GODdamn HUGE tALking CAt!!!! WHo ALSO LEtS OuT LIGhTNiNg BoLts!!! Niji decided to follow them for a bit and when the moment was right, got closer. Niji was almost immediately in contact with Faust, Hawkins was suspicious because "hmm……. you remind me of someone…… okay…….." Since Faust wasn't born on Zou, he didn't have a vivre card, but Basil made a couple of predictions, calculated the path by the stars, a couple of rituals and sent Niji on his way.

When Niji did get on the fucking elephant, he ran into Carrot, who immediately dragged him over to the others. Like "LOOK AT THIS FUNNY-LOOKING GUY!!! HE'S GOT EARS!!! HE'S A BLUE BUNNY!!!" In the end, yes, Niji stayed with Zou. He trained with Pedro for a long time, so he was able to fully master his modification. Carrot became like his annoying little sister because they spent a lot of time training. Also went to the Musketeer Patrol because, thanks to the care and attention of those around him, he realised that his power should serve to protect, not destroy.

He would have lived there in peace and harmony, but Jack the Drought came along...

Niji fought for the Minks like a beast, like hell, generally super because due to his modified body he is more resistant to poisons. Anyway Niji fights off Jack, but all his mates are on the verge of death because of the poison, but then………………… Sanji shows up.

They were both shocked to see each other, but decided to put off the "family greetings" for later. But I think after everything, they had a weird conversation about what's even going on in style: "Why the fuck aren't you under our “daddy's” skirt?" "None of your fucking business, I thought you were dead a long time ago." "Shut your mouth! I've been nursing your mates back to health!" "Well, thank you for fucking saving my family. Fuck no! I'm not thanking you, I'm thanking your raccoon." "……" "…..." "Family?? ………" "Oh, shit…."

I've been seeing people discuss their favorite niche pirates in One Piece lately; like characters who we only see once or twice, but who have compelling vibes and designs. So I wanted to share mine!

Faust is a black cat mink from Hawkins' crew, who I genuinely believe we only see once. He serves as the crew's "magician", which I have so many questions about lol.

We don't know much else about him other than that, and the fact that he comes from the North Blue. I found that interesting; outside of Zou, do we ever see another area that is populated by minks?

*Sigh* nobody makes Faust figures so I made my own!! (≡^∇^≡)

(Kinda messy)

Any thoughts on me drawing fem BepoLaw and fem FaustHawk?

° question

I absolutely love creating small artworks on characters' everyday/routine situations. But I come up with so many ideas that I'm not sure I'll be able to bring them all to life - especially since my inspiration constantly jumps from one idea to the next 🤧

So, I thought: why not share some of these concepts in a script format? These are the ones I might not have time to develop in detail, but I still really want to share. I might add a small sketch, but the main idea would be in text form 🤔

Maybe someday I'll come back to these and create something more detailed when inspiration strikes. What do you think?

[roseaesynstylae]

I want to put down all the references in the Worst Generation (excluding the Straw Hats and Blackbeard) and the named members of their crews. I'm getting my information from the wiki and adding my own theories/comments where necessary. Ever since I read JoJo, I love finding references in manga.

Fire Tank Pirates

Capone Bege: His surname is obviously taken from Al Capone (whom he also shares his birthday with) and his given name is based on the English privateer William le Sauvage. Him being stated to cut animals' heads off is a nod to the horse head scene from The Godfather.

Vito: His name seems to be taken from Vito "Don Vito" Genovese, a mobster/crime boss from Al Capone's era, and the first name of Don Corleone from The Godfather.

Gotti: He seems to be named after John Gotti, a mobster who ran the Gambino crime family in the 80s (He was nicknamed 'the Telfon Don' due to him facing three trials and being acquitted every time -- the results were caused by jury tampering and witness intimidation-- before being finally sent to prison in 1992).

Chiffon: She's named after chiffon cake, which she also specializes in making.

Pez: His name is the Spanish word for fish, as well as a nod to the candy brand, keeping with the Charlotte Family naming theme.

Bonney Pirates

Jewelry Bonney: Her name is taken from the 18th-century Anne Bonney, who, like Bonney herself, was a noble turned pirate.

Hawkins Pirates

Basil Hawkins: His surname is taken from 17th-century English pirate Basil Ringosel and his given name from 16th-century pirate/privateer John Hawkins. Hawkins is also the name of the protagonist of the 1883 adventure novel Treasure Island (which had a massive impact on the depiction of pirates in popular culture) by Robert Louis Stevenson, who also wrote The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Visually, his design is based off of Joey Jordison of Slipknot.

Faust: He's named after the legendary character Faust, who sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for knowledge and worldly pleasures. The story was most famously told by 15th-century playwright Christopher Marlowe in The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus and by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in Faust.

On Air Pirates

Scratchman Apoo: His surname seems to be based on the practice of "scratching" records when DJing, tying into his association with music. His first name is taken from the Qing dynasty pirate Chui A-poo.

Kid Pirates

Eustass Kid: He's named after the 13th-century pirate and mercenary Eustace the Monk and the 17th-century Scottish (which Kid would be if he existed in the real world) pirate William Kidd, who was also called "Captain."

Kid's Attacks: I decided this needed its own entry. Punk Gibson (Kid's giant arm) -- Named after the US guitar manufacturer Gibson. Punk Rotten (the giant scrap metal head and arms) -- Named after Johnny Rotten, the name John Lyndon used when he was the frontman of the influential punk band Sex Pistols. Punk Vise (Crushing a target with Punk Rotten's hands) -- As "vice" and "vise" are spelled the same way in katakana, this attack might be named after the British punk rock band Vice Squad. Punk Pistols (a harpoon gun made out of metal pieces that acts like a Gatling gun) -- Named after Sex Pistols. Punk Corna Dio (the giant bull he used to attack Big Mom) -- Corna is Italian for horns, alluding to the sign of the horns in heavy metal, while Dio references Ronnie James Dio, who was very big in that genre; no, I'm not making the obvious joke. Damned Punk (the giant railgun he used to blast Big Mom off Onigashima) -- Probably named after the British punk rock band The Damned. Punk Clash (after magnetizing someone with his Awakened Devil Fruit, they attract very large and pointy metal pieces) -- Named after the British punk band The Clash.

Killer: His laugh alludes to the song 'Psycho Killer' by the New Wave band the Talking Heads, as the chorus is the same ("fa fa fa fa fa"). The song might be the source of his name. His helmet strongly resembles that of Daft Punk member Guy-Manual de Homem-Christo.

Heat: He's likely named after the experimental rock band This Heat.

Wire: He might be named after the English rock band Wire.

Gig: In keeping with the Kid Pirates' music-related theme naming, a gig is slang for a live show.

Dive: She's likely named after stage-diving, a common practice among musicians and their fans.

UK: His name may come from the UK, where many classic punk bands originated from (ie, the Clash, Sex Pistols). Alternately, he might be named after the Sex Pistols' song 'Anarchy in the UK.'

Pomp: He's likely named after pomp rock, more commonly known as arena rock (examples of bands known for arena rock: Styx, Toto, Journey, REO Speedwagon, Boston).

Bubblegum: His name seems to be a reference to bubblegum music (rock and pop in a catchy and upbeat style marketed toward children), which influenced punk rock, new wave, and melodic metal.

Reck: He's named after the bassist of the Japanese punk rock band Friction.

House: She's named after the electronic music subgenre house music.

Boogie: He's probably named after the electronic club music subgenre called boogie.

Mosh: He's likely named after moshing, a rather violent form of dancing. Appropriate for a member of a crew known for their violence.

Hip: She's named after hip-hop.

Papas: He's named after the folk rock group The Mamas & the Papas, the indie rock band Papas Fritas, or both.

Jaguar: He's likely named after the Fender Jaguar electric guitar. Alternately, his name could come from Mick Jagger's last name, as "Jagger" and "Jaguar" are spelled the same way in katakana.

Quincy: Her name likely comes from the producer and musician Quincy Jones, who produced Michael Jackson's albums Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad, and has 80 Grammy Award nominations and 28 Grammys.

Hop: She's named after hip-hop.

Compo: He might be named after an abbreviation of 'musical composition.'

Disc J: His name pretty clearly comes from disc jockey, more commonly known as DJ.

Fallen Monk Pirates

Urouge: He's named after the 16th-century Ottoman Pirate Oruc Reis. He seems to be based off of Grigori Rasputin, who needs no introduction, and/or Ji Gong, a Chinese monk known for having supernatural abilities, behaving bizarrely, and not following Buddhist monastic rules. Interestingly, both these figures have movies (Rasputin the Mad Monk, a 1966 Hammer horror film starring Christopher Lee as the titular character, and the 1993 Hong Kong film The Mad Monk) that might have inspired his epithet.

Drake Pirates

X Drake: Drake is sometimes synonymous with dragon, especially in Middle English; appropriate, given that dinosaur bones likely inspired legends of dragons. His name is also taken from 16th-century pirate and adventurer Francis Drake. Random (but likely not a deliberate reference) fact: He shares his birthday with the singer/rapper Drake.

Heart Pirates

Trafalgar D. Water Law: His surname is taken from Cape Trafalgar in the south of Spain, which was the site of a battle between the British and French/Spanish fleets which famously killed Lord Nelson. His name is taken from 18th-century pirate Edward Low, who was notorious for violently torturing his victims before killing them, which may have inspired Law's own reputation for cruelty.

Bepo: He might be named after Lord Byron's poem 'Beppo.' He's also likely named after bear, polar.

Shachi: His name is the Japanese word for killer whale, which makes his friendship with Penguin (who's named after killer whales' preferred food) kind of funny.

Jean Bart: His name comes from the 16th-century French privateer Jean Bart.

Ikkaku: Her name means 'narwhal' in Japanese.

Uni: His name comes from the Japanese word for sea urchin.

Clione: 'Clione' is the Latin name for sea angels.

Hakugan: His name means 'snow goose' in Japanese.

Aisling: I thought you knew how to climb trees.

Brendan: I do. Smaller ones.

Aisling: Yeah. Like bushes.

I'm always intrigued by thinking about the potential dynamic between Marie and Basil in their childhood.

And when I think about it, they somewhat remind me of Aisling and Brendan from The Secret of Kells.

A young version of Marie would be restless, brave, and always pulling the quiet and slightly reclusive Basil into new adventures without hesitation.

However, the irony of fate is that, over time, under the pressure of her family, Marie's bright spirit was broken, and her former courage turned into shyness and insecurity, while Basil, on the other hand, grew into a confident and composed leader.
