Like all division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, Curiel seems to be very loyal to Whitebeard, as when he battles against Moria he said he will let neither his captain nor his nakama Ace go to their deaths.

As commander of the tenth division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Curiel has authority over the pirates in his division.

He's equipped with guns and cannons and seems to be a formidable fighter using these kind of weapons, as he is able to confront one of the Shichibukai, Gecko Moria.

[edit] History

[edit] Marineford Arc

Curiel vs. Moria

During the war, Curiel was first seen attacking with the other Whitebeard Pirates, after Admiral Aokiji froze the bay and immobilized all the ships. Later, he was seen fighting against Gecko Moria, claiming that he will not allow Whitebeard or Ace to die.

When the steel walls came up, he was seen attacking them with his cannons, but to no avail. He then dodged one of Akainu's magma fists and then helped his division out of the hot water . He managed to get onto Whitebeard's black paddleship and was last seen standing next to his fellow crewmates.
