Vegapunk/Atlas

Atlas, also designated as , is one of the six satellites of Dr. Vegapunk, embodying his aspect of "violence".
She is an ally of the Straw Hat Pirates during the Egghead Arc. 
==Appearance==
Atlas is an extremely large girl, appearing to be as tall as Kaidou according to Luffy, with a young appearance. She had floppy downward ears, blue eyes and short curly hair that was white on the left and pink on the right; she had a very long curl of hair on each side of her head that ran down to her belly. She had a long, bushy tail on her abdomen. She wore a short pink dress with her number on it as well as a downward-pointing arrow on the front. She also wore pink DOM shoes, brown gloves with white sleeves attached, an earpiece enabling communication with the other satellites, and a large red jetpack with a red-and-white checkered pattern around the middle of the engines on her back. After her body's destruction, Atlas survived by reconvening into Edison's body, who reconstructed the combined Vegapunk with Edison's head, Atlas's left arm, Pythagoras's right arm, and Shaka's torso and legs.
She seemed to be at least partially mechanical, as her face cracked and emitted smoke when damaged by a punch. She, alongside the other satellites, was confirmed to be fully mechanical upon her reconstruction.

==Personality==
Being designated the “violence” satellite of Vegapunk, Atlas has a short temper and is prone to reckless violence upon getting angry, which has been shown to occur if someone attacks her or if people show an inability to utilize her inventions successfully. She is very talkative and will gladly give detailed explanations on the inner workings of her inventions. She is quite interested in the question of the definition of reality, and though she has a firm view on the matter, she thinks other people need to decide the answer for themselves.
She uses the first person pronoun , which is typically considered masculine or aggressive, befitting her violent behavior.

===Satellites===
While Vegapunk's satellites all refer to themselves as Vegapunk, they each exemplify only one portion of Vegapunk's personality, and all have their own wills and desires and are therefore effectively six unique people. While this normally isn't an issue as Vegapunk is supposed to synchronize his brain with all of his satellites via Punk Records, York decided to betray Vegapunk and her fellow satellites in an effort to become a World Noble. Once her treachery was revealed, she was effectively treated as an enemy by Vegapunk and the other satellites.
Following the Egghead Incident, Atlas and the other Satellites shown their disdain towards York for her betrayal. They get rid of all of York's spare parts just so she will not be revived if she is killed.
==Abilities and Powers==
Being a satellite of Vegapunk, Atlas has been a contributor to the genius scientist’s numerous technological developments.
Atlas seems to carry out a human's basic need of violence, and also possibly, physical workouts on behalf of the other Vegapunks, which she fulfills by attacking holograms. Befitting her large size, Atlas possesses significant strength, as she was able to punch Luffy and send him slamming into a wall with great force, leaving him with bruises. She also possesses great durability, being barely affected by a normal punch from Luffy. Her body made a metallic clanging sound when Luffy struck it, meaning she may wear armor or have cyborg modifications. She has good physical strength, demonstrated when she lifted and carried the immobile Bartholomew Kuma.
According to her, she is capable of changing her mask at will and replace whatever part of her gets damaged. She can accomplish this using various spare parts stored somewhere within Punk Records. Atlas is also capable of self-destructing herself as a last resort.
===Engineering Expertise===
As one of Vegapunk's satellites, Atlas has access to numerous futuristic equipment and weapons that she and the other satellites have developed.
*Her gloves, which are called , allow her to interact with light as though it is tangible. This will cause the holograms on Egghead to react to her actions as though they were real, such as when she punched a dragon hologram and it recoiled.
*The jetpack on her back enables her to fly through the air.
===Techniques===
*: A move Atlas uses after York has digested and relieved herself on behalf of the other Satellites.
*: Atlas winds up her arm by spinning it multiple times before unleashing a powerful punch. Atlas first attempted to use this technique against Rob Lucci but was interrupted before she could throw the punch.
==History==
===Past===
During a visit to Mary Geoise, either in person or as a memory of Vegapunk, Atlas experienced the cruelty of the World Nobles.
===Final Saga===
====Egghead Arc====
Atlas encountered Monkey D. Luffy, Tony Tony Chopper, Jinbe, and Jewelry Bonney as they were exploring a portion of Egghead's surface and interacting with the illusory holograms. Thinking she was a hologram, Luffy punched Atlas which caused her to attack back in return. The pirates then came across the Automatic Cooking Machine, and Atlas explained how it worked, as well as showing the power of her Light-Pressure Gloves, before introducing herself to the group as Dr. Vegapunk. After the group had had their fill, Atlas left them, returning to her job as being violent, confusing the group. After York had eaten and relieved herself on the other Satellites' behalf, Atlas threw a "Digestion Punch" at an unseen holographic opponent.
When the CP0 agents infiltrated the island, Atlas was the first of all the Vegapunks to confront them, and immediately rushed into battle, despite the fact that her opponent outnumbered her. Rob Lucci counterattacked with Rokuogan, severely damaging Atlas and knocking her to the floor. While Luffy fought Lucci, Jinbe carried Atlas away, intending to take her to Vegapunk for repairs. S-Snake directed Jinbe and Chopper to the Vacuum Rocket, in which they loaded Atlas and Bonney. Once Luffy rejoined them, they were launched up into the Labophase.
While the other Satellites and the Straw Hats handled the CP0 and Seraphim threats, Atlas underwent repairs. Upon completion, she joined the others in searching for Stella, who had gone missing. She searched inside the lab alongside Robin and Chopper for Vegapunk, until she remembered a long-forgotten lab where she suspected the Stella to be, leading Robin and Chopper towards the lab. Atlas later rejoined with the rest of the surviving satellites, Vegapunk and the Straw Hats after they had captured the traitor York. After finding out that York had put a password on the Frontier Dome, she along with Vegapunk and Edison worked together to attempt cracking the password, being able to crack it successfully, with Atlas rubbing it under York's nose, much to the latter's annoyance. 
Atlas was later horrified when Kizaru appeared in the Control Room and later more surprised when Kizaru was grabbed by a giant Luffy. While Luffy dealt with Kizaru, Atlas wanted to leave the Control Room to regain control of the Pacifista, with Vegapunk wanting to come with her to save Bonney. After the two left in the Vegatank-08 and picked up both Franky and Sanji, Atlas gave new orders for the Pacifista to target the Marine ships. The group was able to find and rescue Bonney, but they later noticed that the Pacifistas had stopped their attack on the Marines under Jaygarcia Saturn's command. As Atlas' group drove back up to the Labophase and witnessed Saturn's arrival on the island, Kizaru shot the clouds they were riding on and sent them back down. Vegatank-08 crashed upon landing, which left the group in front of Saturn.
When Atlas's group saw Bonney being grabbed by Saturn, they tried to save her, but found themselves unable to move from some sort of power. They watched as the Marines raised their weapons to execute Bonney, and when a worn out Luffy asked for food to replenish his strength, she reiterated that she still couldn't move. Just as Bartholomew Kuma had arrived and attacked Saturn, the group was freed from Saturn's power, and Vegapunk instructed Atlas to carry Kuma over to the Labophase. Along with Franky and Bonney, they attempted to use the Vacuum Rocket to get to the Labophase, but Kizaru used his Devil Fruit power to break open the tube and send them falling down. Saturn then ordered to have the Pacifista fire at them. Vegapunk then called Atlas, telling her to relay the counter measure for the Pacifista to Bonney with it being revealed that she had primary authority of them over the Five Elders, with this in effect, the Pacifista targeted their lasers at the Marines. Saturn then furiously stabbed through Vegapunk's chest and ordered Kizaru to kill them, Kizaru obliged and shot multiple beams at the group and Atlas, but before he could kill Kuma and Bonney, Luffy in his Gear 5th form punched Kizaru away. 
Luffy then transformed the ground rubbery saving Atlas and the others from the ground's impact. After Luffy punched Saturn through various buildings for stabbing Vegapunk, Atlas carried Kuma on her back and told Bonney to escape with the hoover boot function, Kizaru then attempted to shoot Bonney and Vegapunk but it was countered away by Sanji, Atlas and Franky then proceeded to escape with Bonney and Kuma to the northeast shore. As Atlas and the others made their escape, the Giant Warrior Pirates arrived and prevented Tosa from killing Bonney, the captains Dorry and Brogy inquired on who they were explaining that they were looking for the Straw Hat Pirates and would protect their allies. The captains then had their crewmates take Atlas, Kuma, Bonney, and Franky back to their ship. After the Vice Admirals, Red King, Pomsky, and Guillotine that blocked the path were subdued due to Franky and Bonney's efforts, Atlas and the others were confronted by Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro. 
Luckily for Atlas, Sanji had arrived at the moment, kicking Nusjuro and drawing his attention away. Unfortunately for Sanji, Nusjuro quickly recovered and attacked Sanji in his beast form, resulting in Sanji dropping Vegapunk's body. Atlas managed to catch it just in time as the fight continued. As Nusjuro jumped to the Labophase, Atlas and Sanji waited for Luffy, Dorry and Brogy near the ship of the Giant Warrior Pirates. As Luffy and the giants arrives, Atlas boarded the ship with them. After Mars started attack the ship, Atlas moved Kuma and Vegapunk to a safer place on the ship. Atlas volunteered to go and check why Usopp's group is late. As she flew to the Labophase communicated with Lilith the fact that York was monitoring them and that something had to be done.
Up in the Labophase, Nusjuro had been blocking the Straw Hats attempts to escape via Coup de Burst. Lilith informed her allies that any attempts to get past him without a distraction would result in them being knocked off course, and to presumably fall to their deaths. Before she could continue, Atlas made an appearance, punching Lilith into the ground, and disconnecting her from Punk Records. While she was unconscious, Lilith snapped her neck back into place, before ordering the Straw Hats to quickly take off. She then used her jetpack to fly toward Nusjuro, losing an arm from him in the process, but also giving her allies the critical time needed to escape. After a short fight, Nusjuro easily defeated Atlas, but realized that she had been a distraction all along. While smiling at her success in helping her allies get away, Atlas violently exploded. Despite her body's destruction, Atlas survived, and reconvened into Edison's body alongside Shaka and Pythagoras.
