[edit] Appearance

Jean Bart is a large man with a fierce looking face comparable to a guard animal. He has tattoos on his forehead and he often bears his teeth. He has large sideburns that line the sides of his face as well as a long mane that runs down his back. When he was a slave, he wore rags and often walked on all fours like a lumbering beast.

Like all slaves of the World Nobles, Bart has the "Hoof of the Soaring Dragon" mark burnt onto his back, which would forever signify him as "less than human".

[edit] Personality

Most of his personality hasn't been revealed yet, but he seems to be a man of honor and repays his debts as he joined Law's crew, the Heart Pirates after he was freed from the Tenryuubito.

[edit] Abilities and Powers

Jean Bart showcases his extreme strength as he breaks a bridge with one punch.

Jean Bart is an immensely strong man capable of breaking a bridge with a single punch.

It should be noted that slaves are often pumped full of sedatives and half-starved to keep them more docile; therefore it's likely that he has yet to show his true power. However, Bart still seemed to be quite healthy looking even in such states, as he looked nothing less menacing while under Roswald's chains.

[edit] History

[edit] His Past

Jean Bart's history is not known yet, but it is known that he once was a renowned pirate, as Trafalgar Law recognized him. At some point, he was taken as a slave by the Tenryuubito.

[edit] Current Events

He was first seen as a slave walking on all four after Dias's collar exploded. Jean Bart was freed by Trafalgar Law, after everyone was fleeing the Human Auctioning House building as an Admiral would be arriving. Law recognized Jean Bart, and after saying his name, Bart replied with "I haven't been called by that in years". Jean Bart glady accepted an offer to join the Heart Pirates. Law says that half his thanks should go to Mister Straw Hat or who we know, as Luffy. He was last seeing battling a Pacifista, along with Eustass Kidd and Law.
