Senor Pink

Senor Pink is a tall, obese man with brown eyes, large lips, dark shaggy hair, and a double chin. He wears a pink bonnet and purple aviator sunglasses, and carries a yellow pacifier in his mouth. He also wears a blue scarf with white polka dots around his neck with a pink bib underneath it. He wears a purple cut off, sleeveless shirt with the logo “Let’s Baby” in yellow on it, and what appears to be small swim trunks with stars all over it that are folded over to resemble a diaper. The baby outfit is a homage to his late infant son. When he was 30 years old, Senor Pink was much slimmer than his present self. He wore a dark-colored suit with a floral shirt, and his hair was neatly combed, showcasing the signs of a well-dressed gentleman. Shortly after the death of Rosinante, Pink adopted his current appearance of dressing as an infant due to it making his comatose wife smile. By age 36, he gained extra weight after falling into depression (having started the formation of his portly figure), his shirt was light-colored and the logo “Let’s Baby” was dark-colored. In the present, it is the other way around with “Don’t Cry” printed on the back. In SBS Volume 80, Oda drew the Donquixote Pirates as children. Senor Pink is shown wearing a dark-colored shirt with dirty pants, and he sported numerous bruises on his face.

He seems to have both a cruel and a compassionate side, calling Sugar useless one moment but then worrying about her safety the next. He is also a very proud man, as he refuses to use his ability to run away from his enemies. He even promised that if Franky could survive his strongest attack, he would admit defeat, a promise well kept. That compassionate side seems to show again, as Franky was able to trick Pink into abandoning the fight when Franky lied that he heard a woman in trouble nearby. Although Pink was angry at being tricked, he was relieved there was not actually a woman in trouble. He continues to show this side of himself such as how he protects a random cat during the middle of battle, something which made even Franky cry in admiration. His love for his wife was so strong, that he would hide his pirate career from her, as she hates pirates. However, his steadfast loyalty to his crew made it impossible for him to leave them either, forcing him to juggle between his two families. When she found out and left him, he became heartbroken, and did everything to regain her smile, even if it means dressing up like their deceased son by wearing infant clothing. Even when everyone else laughed at him for it, calling him a pervert and believing that he became so because of his loss of his wife and son, he easily brushed it all off due to the love for his wife. Despite dressing like a baby and sucking on a pacifier, and his love for his late son, he publicly claims to not like children.

Senor Pink once had a wife and a son. Senor Pink lied that he was a banker so his wife would not hate him due to his wife’s hatred towards pirates. His relationship with his wife became strained after his son died of a fever and his wife learned that he was not a banker. After his wife got into an accident and was reduced to a vegetative state, Senor Pink dressed like a baby because that was the only thing that made her smile. Even after her death, Pink continues to wear the infant clothes to this day, showing a deep sign of lingering love for her.

Enemies

Franky

Despite being enemies, they developed some respect for each other during their battle at the SMILE factory. Senor Pink told Franky if he survived his finishing move, he would accept defeat, and he indeed kept his promise when Franky withstood it. Upon being defeated by Franky, the cyborg showed an interest to hear of Pink’s past, should they ever meet again in the future.

He possesses great superhuman strength, as he was able to wrestle and knock down Franky, a very large and heavy cyborg. He is extremely durable and has vast amounts of stamina, as he survived a direct hit from Franky’s rocket with only minor injuries and burns, and retained consciousness after being struck by Franky’s Strong Hammer thirty times. He has great skill in wrestling and hand-to-hand combat, and can use it in combination with his Devil Fruit powers to perform devastating attacks that caused extreme damage to Franky despite his cybernetically enhanced body with a strong level of resistance to even firearms and artillery.

Techniques

Devil Fruit

Senor Pink ate the Sui Sui no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to swim through solid ground and through walls. This grants him the ability to move underground and through structures to attack at unsuspecting angles and avoid attacks. This power also allows him to infiltrate enemy bases and commit assassinations.

Weapons

When entering Minion Island to intercept Donquixote Rosinante, a 32-years old Pink carried a rifle. During the takeover of Dressrosa, a 36-years old Pink carried a katana on his back.

Techniques

After Donquixote Doflamingo made Law an official member of the crew, the Donquixote Pirates spread their influence as they traveled to the Grand Line. They participated in various activities such as looting, making business deals, and collecting bounties. While the crew was engaged in battle with the Marines out at sea, Senor Pink showed Doflamingo a note from Corazon saying he and Law left to cure Law from the Amber Lead Syndrome. Six months after Corazon and Law left the crew, the Donquixote Pirates plotted to steal the Ope Ope no Mi from the Barrels Pirates who were going to sell it to the Marines. They later arrived at Minion Island and were informed by Vergo of Corazon’s treachery.

While Doflamingo covered part of the island in his Birdcage, the Donquixote Pirates raided and looted the Barrels Pirates’ hideout. When they found Corazon, they viciously attacked him until Doflamingo arrived. Buffalo and Baby 5 later informed Doflamingo that the Marines stationed at the island took custody of a boy. Thinking that the boy might be Law, the Donquixote Pirates left Corazon for dead and prepared for departure. Before they left the island, they found themselves under fire by Tsuru’s squadron.

Some time after the incident with Rosinante, Pink met a woman named Russian, whom he fell in love with. He kept from her that he was a pirate—since she hated pirates—telling her that he was a legitimate banker, and the two were ultimately married. They had a son, Gimlet, but he died while Pink was on business with the Donquixote Family. When Russian found out that Pink was not a banker, she ran away from him. She was later caught in a landslide, making her fall into a permanent vegetative state. Visiting her while showing regret for what happened to his son, Pink began to wear the bonnet, which made his wife smile even in her emotionless state. He ultimately adopted the bonnet and the appearance of a baby from then onward as part of the Donquixote Family. He participated in Doflamingo’s takeover of Dressrosa. After Monet opened the gates to the palace, he and the other officers of the Donquixote Pirates invaded the palace. He commented on how good the view of Dressrosa was from up in the palace.

Dressrosa Saga

Dressrosa Arc

At the Corrida Colosseum, Pink was introduced as a representative for the Donquixote Pirates in the tournament for the Mera Mera no Mi. He later guarded the east entrance to the Toys House. When Franky arrived, a battle ensued. After Franky dealt a large-scale damage to the building and sent many of Doflamingo’s men flying, Senor Pink approached him from behind by swimming through the ground. Pink engaged Franky in combat and performed a surprise attack, knocking Franky to the ground.

When Franky started shooting his rockets, Pink took one right in the face in order to protect Machvise, who was unable to move. Soon, the Marines arrived and surrounded the Toys House and Pink seemed annoyed by their presence. Senor Pink, Machvise, Dellinger, and the Marines eventually defeated Franky and stood over him. Upon hearing that Sugar had passed out, Pink voiced his annoyance by insulting her, calling her a brat. However, he voiced his hopes that she was not seriously injured immediately afterwards, much to the delight of his watching female fans.

After Doflamingo trapped Dressrosa in his “Birdcage” and put a price on the heads of twelve people (including Franky), Senor Pink, Machvise, and Dellinger noticed that Franky disappeared from the Toys House. The pirate officers were surprised that the Marines were not taking any action against the Donquixote Pirates even after the truth about Doflamingo was exposed. They then saw Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, and Law drop down from the sky and land right in front of them. The three officers wasted no time engaging Law and the two Straw Hat Pirates in combat.

As they attempted to run, Pink quickly swam through the ground and grabbed Luffy’s leg, allowing his comrades to attack Luffy. Their battle was interrupted by the arrival of Issho and Pica, who appeared as a massive stone giant. After Franky reached the SMILE Factory and prepared to attack it with Radical Beam, Pink swam up to him and performed a suplex, preventing him from destroying the factory. Pink then stated his intent to settle the score. Franky later claimed that there was on old lady in need of help, distracting Pink long enough for Franky and his dwarf group to enter the factory after it was unlocked from the inside.

Once Pink realized he was tricked (simultaneously angered at being tricked, and relieved that there was nobody in need of help), he charged into the factory and Franky smashed Kyuin’s head against Pink’s. After Franky stopped Kyuin from going on a rampage, Pink continued on with his battle against him. As their fight continued, both of them moved in a way that resembled synchronized swimming, while the girls and dwarves cheered around them. Pink later took a direct punch from Franky in order to protect a cat. After making sure the cat was safe, Pink crumbled to his knees.

Pink’s battle with Franky then turned into a test of will. After he willingly took a direct hit from Franky’s Strong Hammer, he performed another suplex. After Franky declared to the dwarves that he would withstand every attack, Pink challenged Franky with Baby Buster. The attack failed to defeat the cyborg, and while taking a beating from Franky Iron Boxing, Pink thought about his wife and son. As Pink fell to the ground defeated, he shed a tear from remembering his tragic past. Franky respectfully wiped the tears before walking away. After Doflamingo’s defeat, Pink and his fellow officers were arrested by the Marines and imprisoned in Impel Down. There, Senor Pink’s Lineage Factor was extracted and used to duplicate his Devil Fruit ability in the Seraph S-Shark.
