==Summary==
Bentham, also known by his epithet "Bentham of the Wild" and his alias Mr. 2 Bon Clay, is a former officer agent of Baroque Works and an okama (a Japanese slang term for a transvestite). Strangely enough, he was the only higher up member that lacks a female partner of the same rank. Possibly due to believing he fits the role of both male and female, probably due to his powers and lifestyle as a self-proclaimed okama. He was thus assigned both a number and a holiday for his code name.
He was a major antagonist for the Arabasta Arc, along with the remaining of Baroque Works Officer Agents. He was then defeated by Sanji.
Despite once being an enemy of the Straw Hat pirates due to his nature as a member of Baroque Works, he formed a bond of friendship with Monkey D. Luffy, leading Bon Kurei to sacrifice himself for the pirate captain both at Arabasta, and later at Impel Down, becoming a prominent ally of his during the Impel Down Arc. He is currently the new queen of Newkama Land.
He had a bounty of 32,000,000 berries over his head.

Shadows belonging to strong willed people are difficult to control, allowing them to rebel against Moria's pact which usually immediately submits a shadow to his supremacy and orders. Spiritual energy is contained within one's soul/life; this energy is represented by the fighting power or the Haki itself. Those with strong souls, which are homologous to shadows, resist the effects of Brook's soul manipulation)

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Mane-Mane no Mi (Imitating Human Fruit): a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to turn into a physical double of anyone he or she has touched.
Okama Kenpo: This fighting style uses mainly kicks and focuses strongly on ballet. It takes much physical discipline, which Bon Clay has mastered, but due to this, his Mane-Mane no mi becomes useless due to it keeping him from using his own body.
*Hakucho Arabesque (白鳥アラベスク Hakuchō Arabesuku?, literally meaning "Swan Arabesque"): Bon Clay performs a powerful high kick, usually after a combination of kicks and punches.
*Okama Dash ("Crossdresser Dash"): Bon Clay taps the ground several times and then takes a giant leap forward. With his long legs, he is able to quickly cross long distances.
*Chi to Ase to Namida Relevé ("Tip-Toe Stance of Blood and Sweat and Tears"): Using his leg strength, Bon Clay is able to sprint up a vertical cliff wall.
*Dozo Okamai Knuckle ("Don't Mind My Fist"): Bon Clay punches the enemy in the face.
*Urabure Swan Butokai ("Shaking Swan Dance"): Bon Clay attacks the enemy with a flurry of kicks and punches. For some reason, Bentham's swans appear drunk and have their tongues hanging out when he uses this attack.
*Okama Chop ("Crossdresser Chop"): Bon Clay strikes the enemy in the eyes with a chop, blinding them. This attack leads into Keri Pointe.
*Keri Pointe ("Kick Claw First Pointe"): After blinding the enemy with Okama Chop, Bon Clay jumps into the air and kicks the enemy in the face with both feet. He continues to push the enemy until he kicks them off into a nearby structure.
*Mascara Boomerang (マスカラブーメラン Masukara Būmeran?): Bon Clay peels off his mascara and throws it at the enemy, and, like an actual boomerang, it returns to his hand. The mascara is bladed so it cuts the enemy, and can hit the enemy upon return.
*Grand Fouetté: Ano Natsu no Hi no Memoir ("Grand Whipping: I Reminisce of Summer Days"): After spinning 320,000 times, Bon Clay performs a kick using the momentum of the spins to increase the strength.
*Prima ("Leading Part Skill"): Bon Clay removes the two swans from his shoulders and places them on his feet. When he kicks in prima mode, the swan neck extends, giving him further reach, and the steel bill pierces the enemy. When he kicked a stone wall, it left a solid hole without any cracks around it.
*Bombardier ("Bombing Swan"): After using Prima, Bon Clay kicks the enemy with an extended and pointed kick. Before delivering the real kick, Bon Clay appears to kick several times, which may be used to confuse the enemy.
*Ano Fuyu no Sora no Memoir ("I Reminisce of Winter Nights"): After using Prima, Bon Clay leaps into the air and begins to perform several somersaults in mid-air. After spinning enough times, Bentham descends at a 45 degree angle and delivers a piercing kick strengthened by the momentum of the spins.
*Bombardier Arabesque ("Bombing Swan Arabesque"): After using Prima, Bon Clay uses Bombardier after leaping into the air. The kick is also higher than the normal Bombardier.
*Ohikae Na Fouetté ("Oh! Pardon My Whiplashing Feet"): Bon Clay lunges forward and does a backwards somersault in midair, to land a powerful kick on the opponent's head.
