Mercator Combo

* Regular
* "Super" Combo

Mercator Combo is a player character in One Piece: The Aftermath and the Captain of the **Long Don Pirates,** a group of pirates formed by him and his adoptive brother Ruben, in the South Blue.

A hated child since birth. Constantly ridiculed due to his bloodline and being a Long-Limb; His mother being a long leg and his father being a long arm. They were killed when he was very young by a bounty hunter and mercenary guild known as Radiance. Due to this, Combo gained an undying hatred for all bounty hunters and vowed not to rest until those who wronged him are purged from the world.

He has traveled throughout the South Blue without much noterity outside of a rather joking 50 bounty as the "**Crack Addict"**, before making his way into the first half of the Grandline. Where he has so far gained alot more noterity and a higher bounty of 79,000,050 for the crimes of the murder of hundreds of innocent people on Alabasta, destruction of property on Whiskey Peak and numerous other war crimes such as torture (rumours made by the Radiance Organisation in order to increase the bounty of Combo), all as captain of the Long Don Pirates earning him the known epithet of **"Demoltion Don"**

## Appearance

Combo is a ***very*** tall man. Standing at an imposing 11 feet 8 inches tall, his white and dark green suit, tailor made to fit his body perfectly and his matching hat combined with his height make him an immense terror on any battlefield he is on. His facial expressions when he is angry make him even more frightening, he smiles the largest when enraged. As seen above his visage can be fairly imposing when aggravated.

## Personality

Combo has a somewhat agressive, but family oriented personality; showing he is more than able to be cold and ruthless when he needs to be, but at the same time; Combo cares for his crew like they are his family and in the words of the Mafia: No-One Crosses the family and gets away with it.

## Powers / Abilities / Equipment

### Overview

Combo is primarily a Boxer, often relying on his fists to give the enemy a good ole' knuckle sandwich on the battlefield. Landing a couple of good jabs and hooks to keep em rocked and sudued. He is a rather sufficent hand-to hand combatant outside of his Boxing due to his agileness and his lanky frame of being both a long-limb; granting him a longer range of offense whilst being able to keep a safer distance against other melee combatants with a shorter range them him. Unfortunally, being a Boxer he suffers from the crippling weakness of Grappling, which if he ends up caught in, results in his main offensive being primarly shut down *(Such as his During "A Scream in the Night" against El Cuando's reanimated corpse).* He has shown once to have been able to briefly overcome the grapple, reversing it into his own technique; **The Mercator Jackhammer.**

#### Devil Fruit

Combo ate the Build Build Fruit, a paramecia that gives the user to open a "*Site*" similar to the "*Room*" from the Ope Ope No Mi where instead of a operation room it becomes a construction site that enables the deconstruction, construction and maintenance of any object within the site. This fruit, being quite verstile is used less frequently by the "Demoltion Don" who opts for his more reliable fists, but occassionally uses it in tandem with his Boxing to land devistating hits.

Having eaten the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Chōjin, Mercator gained the abillites of a Superhuman.

#### Equipment:

* Yakuza IV - Father's prized sword, taken from his home after his death by Combo
* Bada Bing and Bada Boom - Sharpened Brass Knuckles made by combo's foster brother and first mate, Ruben Square

## History

### A Scream in The Night

A harrowing howl can be heard in the dead of night as the crescent moon overshadows the cactus graveyard of Whiskey Peak. An ominous scream of childern shortly following waking the Long Don Pirates who realise Arbor has disappeared! Where he lay, it was stone cold. The air was frigid and a small trickle of some form of plasma leading out of the room. Seemingly heading towards the Cactus graves...the Whiskey peaks.

Organising the crew together, Combo noticed the missing Arbor and Asariel, hearing screams once more as he checked. This time more akin to their voices before it fell to the void of silence. Combo would rally the rest of the Long Don Pirates and head towards it, hoping to rescue his crew members from whatever fate befell them.

The Long Don Pirates, spearheaded by Combo, rushed towards the source of the screaming as fast as possible, traversing the cactus mountain and arriving to the source of the screaming. There, they saw the sight of a small pile of young, but fresh, bodies piled up next to a man who seems to be... translucent. He was defined by his velvet and posh attire, next to him were two shallow graves containing Asariel & Arbor. Both of them in Glass Coffins as the spectral figure paid them no heed for a brief moment. The graveyard itself gave a very spooky aura as you can feel the airs on your neck standing up as you approach closer to the situation to which combo would screamed angerly at the sight.

The spectral figure turned to face them after Combo's loud shocked tone reaches his ears. He sighes loudly as they approach. behind his translucent body was Arbor and Asariel on some sort of ritual circle. After an exchange of words, Combo and his crew prepared to battle this spectral figure, revealing himself as the Investor, in hopes to stop him.

Combo would focus the majority of the fight against the raised skeleton of the deceased luchadore **El Cuado.** Finding himself against the crippling weakness of a boxer. **A Grappler**. Unleashing his **SITE** onto the battlefield, he would land a decent hit against the Luchadore Zombie with his Wreckin Ball technique before the hulking wide undead grappled him.The Luchadore would then pull combo head-over-heels into the air and slam them back down to earth with a devestatin powerbomb before following up with three german suplexes to the poor long-limb who was unable to land many clean hits in. As the third suplex hit, Combo would watch his foster brother go limp in the air and collaspe to the ground unconcious. Fueled by silent rage and the luchadore moments before mid-suplex recieving a blast of steam that weakened its bone structure, Combo would land a significant hook to its skull, causing the bones to rattle whilst he was raised in the air for what seemed as the finishing move, allowing him to stun the hulking luchadore. Taking the chance using all of his mustered strength after the beating he had taken and the pain he endured watching his brother fall, silent rage covering his face as Combo flipped onto his feet, lifting the luchadore and using the momentum to hit a finsihing jackhammer on him.. the very same Luchadore was intending to do! The impact... Shattering the Skeleton of the Luchadore! Using the power of his Brooklyn Kenzan Rage.

He would manage to avoid **The Investor's Short Term investment** last ditch effort attack on the crew thanks to his boxer

footwork, however he would watch as the spectral man gouged out his brothers eye and struck down Mako and severely hurt Tixes. Experiencing the feeling of **SHEER UNYIELDING RAGE** exploding inside his body as he uttered a single sentence:

> "you… can’t do that…. To. *My*. FAMILYYYYYYYYY!"
>
>

A Green meancing aura would surround the long limb when Wren & Richards **”steamed salmon sandwich bomb!”** knocked the Investor into their captain. Combo did the impossible and clutch the spectral figure with both of his hands, grasping firmly as his fury fueled eyes locked onto the face of the man who DARED to hurt his family. A wrath induced smile as he used his SITE to create a trebuchet behind him. Clutching the Investor firmly as the spectral man attempted a last ditch effort to pierce the captain of the Long Don Pirates with his ghostly fist. However, the Investor was too late. Combo would slay his spectral spirit with his strongest asset in his **Arsenal: Demoltion**. Combo's most reckless and destructive attack at his disposal. Using a trebuchet to smash his spirt into nothing. Crushing it it. And spread it into the wind
