Motobaro
From One Piece Encyclopedia
Motobaro is the pet "Love Bison" of Duval.[1] He is used by Duval to ride on. Typically, Motabaro is ridden by Duval with a special saddle. Aside from the side pockets where Duval's harpoon cartridges can be stored on it, there are motorcycle handle bars similar to those worn by the flying fish of Duval's men. With these, Duval rides Motobaro as if he's riding a large motorcycle. When traversing across water, Motobaro is fitted with a special breathing apparatus that resembles the front of truck with two exhaust pipes at the side.[2]
Because of his strength, Motabaro is called a brutal beast who is capable tearing holes even in village dams. He is so strong that he is still capable of crushing an opponent even if his horns don't reach them.
When Motobaro went against Luffy, Luffy told him that there's no point in them fighting. Motobaro got scared when Luffy stated this to him and ran away. He didn't get away far enough before falling to the ground mysteriously with his mouth foaming. This is similar to how the Sea King ran away from Shanks and how the junior members of Whitebeard's crew reacted to Shanks's presence on the Moby Dick.[3]
