Tsugo Aura

**Tsugo Aura,** known commonly by the name "**Dokkan",** was a player character in One Piece; The Aftermath.

Originally Joining the Marines in the Academy; showing promise when revealing he had already infact eaten a devil fruit prior to enlisting. He was granted the rank of Warrant Officer and dispatched to **Loguetown Marine Base** under the acting leader of the base: Special Lieutenant Mocha Marbel. There he would be scouted by Vice Admiral Gaia and recruited into G-7; spending quite a bit of time with the unit and rising up to the Rank of Ensign on the verge of Lieutenant Junior Grade before he was ostracized, arrested and sentenced to imprisonment upon the discovery of his treasonous plotting and blatent neglection of duty which allowed many pirates to continue their neferious deals unapposed by the Marine when he was in the area.

He would eventually be sent to **Pandora's Lock**; Where he was retrived by a member of the Revolutionary Army (with extreme difficulity) and convinced to aid them in their Attempted Raid on Ennies Lobby. During the Raid; Tsugo would unfortunately perish against a member of Cipher Pol 9 known as **Adrick,** who defeated the long-limb before consuming him whole like a monster.

## Appearance

Tsugo has messy ivory white hair and a rather pale complection. His eyes are a navy blue and after to his encounter with Pythios Blizzard whilst working under Captain James Cook, the left side of his face above his cheek and around his eye is severely burned due to trying to pick a fight with the cold pirate crew. He also tends to casually wear a cotton turtleneck jumper which has the marine logo on the back of it, and pewter grey pants on his long legs and a set of black combat boots. He also owns a Justice cloak, however he rarely wears it on duty.

In his Zoan state, his height grows to that of either a giant (Hybrid) or a Ancient giant (Full Brachiosarus form), with pale frosty coloured skin.

## Personality

Tsugo's personallity can be summed up in a single sentence: A reckless stubborn dimwit who doesn't know what a smart decision is. He tends to be absolutely stupidly reckless in battle, althought their are some shining moments where he has proved that deep within that mind of his, is a smart indivudal with some sembenace of a field general able to anaylise the battlefield and come up with an optimal solution. He can be rather stubborn at times; unwilling to admit he is wrong or back down from what he has set his mind to. This mentality aurgablly ended up costing him his life, when he choose to stick and fight against an opponent who was way beyond what he was capable of fighting against rather than continuing to flee. He does have abit of an aggressive side to him, however that only tends to come out when he is either drunk or failing to be perceptive.

## Powers/Abillites/Equipment

### Devil Fruit

Tsugo's devil fruit is the **Ryu Ryu no Mi; Model Brachiosarus,** an Ancient Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to transform into a brachiosaurus hybrid and a full brachiosaurus at will. The major strength of this fruit is that it allows the user to turn into a brachiosaurus, a very large and heavy-bodied sauropod dinosaur from the prehistoric era, granting them an immense boost to their size and bulk. Their size is comparable to that of a giant, even more so the size of an ancient giant due to Tsugo's racial traits of being a longleg tribe member. Like other Ancient Zoans, this fruit also grant enhanced strength and durability, even more so due to a brachiosaur's immense size. No weaknesses are currently known aside from the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

#### Techniques

* **Tail Smasher -** Tsugo uses his Brachiosaur Tail to smash the enemy into the ground
* **Brachio Binder! -** Tsugo wraps his tail around his foe, restraining and grappling them in his grasp, unable to defend against his dagger slashes properly
* **Brachio Spin! -** Tsugo spins around on the spot and hits everyone in a full circle with his tail.

### Weapons

Tsugo's main weapon of choice is the **dagger.** Possessing many in his arsenal, he tends to use the dagger for its flexability in close quarters combat to quickly slash at his enemies. Using his proficency in daggers, he can also use them as throwing knives to deal with foes at range. Using his long legs, he tends to use the swiftness of his movement, to dash and slash his foe, before following with with a fast knife to the back.

On occassion; Tsugo has used the **Akimbo Dagger Style** to fight against his enemies; using it to maximise his lethal strikes and slash wildly.

He also posseses a **Remington** pistol, which he keeps in his reserve arsenal, however he rarely uses it.

He also owned a cursed maul that refused to allow him to perform dishonourable acts , possessed by the soul of a old knight, merged to it with a devil fruit's abillity, named **Sir** **Freddrick,** That possessed the Jiki Jiki no Mi that possed major durabilty due to be being powered by the soul of the knight. The weapon was eventually rendered useless and decayed into ash prior to the **War of the Wabiest** after the bonds of the devil fruit's power that bound the soul to the weapon was disabled temporarly, freeing the knights soul from its weaponised prison.

### Haki and Six Powers

Tsugo possessed the basic knowledge of Arament haki, having learnt it prior to the **War of the Wabiest,** at Marineford during **a certain Admiral's special training.** The Brachiosarus also had the abillity to use one of the six powers: Geppo. Which he would use in combination of his long legs to get a distance from his enemies.

## History

### Past

Born on a small island in the New World called **Komugi,** Tsugo grew up with a Younger Sister and Older Brother, as well as his parents. He had a relatively decent childhood for someone born in the New World, enjoying happy memories with his siblings and parents for most of his adolesence. That was, until one day, his father choose to abandon Tsugo and his family when the long-legged boy reached the age of 14 years old. Forced to survive with no father to provide for him or his family, his older brother, **Yabai Aura** decided to brave the seas to try provide a better life for his siblings and mother, gaining quite an influencal amount of money which was sent back home. This continued for a few more years until he and his family recieved a note from **Yabai,** who stated to be no longer funding the family due to his intrests leading elsewhere and instead telling them they were indebted to him. A couple of months later, the worst happened to the now poor family; A group of Pirate Raiders broke into their home, attempting to rob them all of what they had! Tsugo, in a valiant vain effort, attempted to defend himself as well as his mother and sister, unfortunatally, he was unable to save his sister as one of the merciless men shot her through the face infront of the poor boy. Fueled by despair and rage, the young boy quickly, almost on instinct, disarmed one of the intruders, taking their firearm and gunned down all of the remaining invaders. Stricken with major grief at the loss of his beloved younger sister, **Kimochi,** that he debated committing hara-kiri to atone for his failures; before being slapped back into his senses by his surviving mother.

Finally back to his senses and motivated by revenge, Tsugo investigated into the identity of the three individuals,checking their pockets for information on who they were... only to discover a horrible truth; That they were corrupt marines masquerading as pirates. Marines that had abandoned justice for greed. This... revelation shook Tsugo to his very core, he swore to himself on his own life that he would never allow this to happen to anyone else ever again! That he would rid the marines of the Corrupted officers and that he would protect those that couldn't protect themselves. Also on their bodies Tsugo found a rather... bizzare Bronze donut shaped devil fruit, which the oblivious Tsugo ate, thinking it was an actual donut. Tsugo would later give his sister a proper burial before tossing the corpses of those traitorious marines into the ocean. He would then find his way to the nearest marine base he knew; **G-X** and apply to be a marine, before he was sent by the base to **Marine Academy** to recieve basic training and have his abillites evauluated.

### Start of Marine Life

Starting off as a new recruit at the **Marine Academy**, Tsugo was one of the few recruits in his class with a devil fruit; After about a year or so in the academy, Tsugo graduated with... less than medicore results, being assigned the rank of **Warrant Officer** and sent to the **Loguetown Marine Base,** in the Polestar Islands, in a move to fill the power vacum left by the demise of the bases captain & The Commodore due to the Wolven Pirates actions prior to his arrival. Upon arriving, Tsugo got to work doing daily marine tasks, and would even encounter the wolven pirates, growing a grudge against the group's captain and their first mate due their reckless abandon of the lives they affect with their actions, before the arrival of Vice Admiral Gaia a few days later.

Upon Gaia's arrival; he assigns Tsugo with the task of neturalising a pirate known as **Kendi Blonde,** who has been sighted upon the island and to believed to be in hiding. After doing abit of investigating, the warrant officer headed into the office and ended up finding an entrance to an underground tunnel system. Entering it, he followed the tunnels, leading him to an opening of a large room, where the pirate was indeed hiding. Quickly coming up with a plan, the long-leg snuck into the room, leaping into the air, transforming into his hybrid state and using the momentum to wound the pirate with two daggers held akimbo before swifly using his brachiosaurus tail to bind him. Being at the advantage in both durability and strength, Tsugo was able to tank the blows dealt by the pirate attempting to escape, even completely taking a devil fruit imbued attack from Kendai Blonde's Kachi Kachi No Mi before the marine finished him off. Upon defeating the pirate and taking his life, tsugo searched around the open space; discovering an eternal pose to the grandline, a rather unique revolver and a few special bullets, which he took for himself.

Upon brining the corpse back, it was revealed by Gaia to be a test of the Dokkan's abillity; given to tsugo so the vice admiral could gauge his abillites, such as his inititive and combat power proper rather than relying on an overall test grade granted by the marine acadamy. Having passed in Gaia's eyes; Tsugo was then recruited into the ranks of G-7. He would later be sent by transport ship to the G-Base (Not before finding a Devil Fruit in the forests of Loguetown accidentally)

### First Mission: Operation String-Theory

Upon arriving at the base, which sat postioned between **Sakura Kingdom, Cardendough & Graveldon.** The new member of G-7 was quickly welcomed and vetted by the base's second in command; **Captain Mcknight.** With the stern, serious and knowledgable captain showing Tsugo around the base and to his own personal quarters. After becoming aqquanted with the base and its structure; tsugo was allowed to roam freely for the remainder of his day, with him instantly heading to the mess hall hoping to get a drink of booze. There he would encounter a 4'1ft old looking dwarfish man whom he would challenge to a drink off. It was a close contest, however in the end Tsugo was unable to outdrink the dwarf, who would later reveal himself to be **"The Drinking Giant" Rear Admiral Goldurf.** He would be then carried back to his room by a fellow warrant officer by the name of **Ruko,** who he bonded with over the next few days prior to his first Mission on G-7.

After a few days, Tsugo would be assigned to go along with **Goldurf, Ruko** and a few other marines to Sakura Kingdom. Dubbed: Operation String-Theory in the marine dossier, Tsugo and co's mission was to retrive and extract a marine scientist by the name of **Karlsberg** from the medical kingdom who was being kept their against his will after the Kingdom's monarch broke off relations with the marines and World Government, refusing to sell or supply the marine's with medical supplies in return for Karlsbergs assisitence in improving said medicine's formula.

Arriving at the Nation by Marine Ship, Tsugo and co departed from the boat and began looking around for information regarding Karlsberg's whereabouts. With Tsugo stumbling across seemingly a young girl corpse dressed similar to a jiangshi in the snows, only to discover it was a living girl by the name of **Netal.** The young zombie like girl explained to Tsugo about **The Investor's** highly illegal child slavery regieme and how he had allied with the nations king. Going on to further explain she feels cold after eating a strange sickly green & mauve pumpkin in her starvation. Her stomach rumbling, Tsugo took her to Goldurf in **Robelle** and informed him of the situation regarding the Investor and the King.... resulting in Goldurf reluctantly enlisting the aid of the **Succubus of Marijiose.**

### Galavanting across the Grandline

Post Operation String-Theory, Tsugo would recieve a promotion to **Ensign.** He was granted his own ship to command and was allowed to pick out any lower ranking officers he wished to be apart of his team, opting to choose **Van Austin (**as his marksman and Navigator), **Warrant Officer Ruko (**As his quater master) **& a few other marine soliders** that would join him on his vessel. Leaving G-7's base and Young Netal in the care of **Goldurf,** Tsugo headed out to explore the Grandline abit; with his main goal to take down some pirates and provide justice for people. This led him to Resort Refuge, a Resort island on the 5th route of Paradise. There, he would look for clues and gather intel on **"The Monster of Gray Terminal" ,** fully intending to take Kaio down.... only to backtrack on that decision shortly after learning about Kaio's allies: **The Eldritch Pirates** being far stronger than he anticipated due to **Uesugo's involvement**. He would eventually return back to base after buying improved equipment and supllies for his crew.

### War of the Wabiest

Tsugo would fight in the War of the Wabiest, teaming up with Carlos Ven & Jin Hailong to fight against one of the Pirate Captains allied with **Wabi Wabo: Winva of the Blind Winds**; The user of the Kaze Kaze no Mi (Wind Logia). Pushing themselves to their absolute limits and barely manage to defeat him due to the sheer luck of his own self inflicted Kamikaze to take down the three of them in a sphere of pure oxygen, and Carlos's Last stand. Dying, Tsugo would attempt to perform CPR onto the red fishman, unfortunatly unable to bring him back to life due to Carlos giving up on life. Tsugo is able to save Jin's life from the effects of the pure oxygen sphere due to his CPR.

Tsugo would later almost perish against the power of **World Shatter.** Only to have his heart restarted by James using his Pika Pika to restart its beating at lightspeed. However, would in the process lose their devil fruit due to being deceased for decent length of time before their miraculous ressuitation

### Demise

Tsugo would later be freed (with extreme difficulty) by the revolutionary forces and convinced to help them in a Raid on Enies Lobby, with them even going out of their way to hunt down his previously lost he Long-Legged devil fruit and provide it to him in order to allow him to fight properly. He would meet up with Clouds, David Wild and a Red Hooded Figure who was escorting Clouds to the meeting point as the four of them had been tasked with being the inital infiltration unit to enter Enies Lobby. Upon converging at the Waterfall Shallows they decided their first course of action was to secure a method of undetectable transportation to get to the Lobby: The Sea Train.

The trio and the hooded figure arrived at the bustling sea-train station. Lots of people were about waiting to use the train in order to traverse to nearby islands within the grand line. A gentleman was talking to his wife over den den mushi regarding a bussiness trip. A worried woman was holding several kids by reins in order to keep them from running away. Even the soundly eldery patiently was waiting for it to stop. Tsugo was the first to jump off the boat; hiding his face to avoid being recognised as Clouds gassed the entire station. Eventually turning into his hybrid state to prevent him from jepordising the mission; noticing as the Gas combust into flame with an explosion as he caught with a glance that the red hooded figure's finger was pointing with a small spark of flame towards the station that just blew up before he lowers his hand and began to stroll forward. The brachiosaurus began to destroy what remained of the structure around them to make it look like some form of accidental gas leak that led to the explosion as the train arrived. He held back puking as the lifeless, smouldering corpse of the conductor was tossed from the conductors booth as he reverted back to his human form and boarded the sea-train with David and Clouds; but not before suffering from Cloud's friendly fire as he attempted to eliminate potential witnesses with another gas explosion lit by him and a lighter. Then; the train ride began.

During the travel on the train; Tsugo and David would converse and make small-talk about Clouds and how David was doing since he last encountered him at Sakura Kingdom during Operation String-Theory, before he went to find a change of clothes. Unfortunately due to bad luck; he was only able to find some genie-like clothes with a turbanand, a chicken suit that lacked the head piece and a native shaman's attire. Opting for the genie's turban, he he unwound it and wraped it around his neck like a scarf to cover his face properly with a green gem on the former headpiece upon where his nose was located. Asking David if he wanted to use any of the attire before he attempted to make some make-shift medical supplies such as bandages, using his marine academy training during first aid classes to turn the chicken outfit into bandages: It ended ***poorly***. As he would accidentally tear the costume quite badly that feathers exploded everywhere: covering primarily over an unamused david's head.
