Hito Pirates

The Hito Pirates are a human supremacist organization concerned with the eradication of non-humans and devil fruit users

As part of their operation, executives are sent out to the Four Blues in order seek and destroy non-humans. Guy for example operates in the West Blue and spends his time going to auctions in order to buy and kill non-human slaves that happen to be sold. They are willing and able to spend 20 million beli to procure a single non-human. Their genocidal nature is great enough that unlike most other pirate crews, they will actively pursue naval officials if they are deemed "impure".

The Major leaders that Branch 101 have questioned so far seem to have no personal relationship with Hugh Man and simply are in the crew because they are able to further exercise their hate of non-humans and participate in their preferred twisted activity.

Their flag is a photo-realistic human face.

When the crew is sent to deal with the Captain of the New Wave Mime Pirates, two grunts of the Hito Pirates known as Big Fella and Little Fella come to also try to dispose of the Captain. After they realize that their main target has already been dispatched they set their sites on the three "non-humans", Bradley, Yokan, and Damian. Branch 101 question the two lackeys as to find the whereabouts of their leader. Yokan and Kai make their way to the small ship that the two arrived on and find two more Hito Pirates. The two members of Branch 101 quickly dispatch of them and acquire four Eternal Poses that will direct them to the Locations of Bob, The Custodian, Alter, and Hugh Mann respectively. After extensive questioning Branch 101 learns that Bob the Demolition Man is the West Branch leader. Once they turn in Big and Little Fella they gather Quackington to help assist them in the mission.

##### Hito Pirates Arc

Branch 101 makes their way to Quackington's home island in order to take down Bob. Once they make it their they defeat Bob and a number of Hito Pirates. They gather that the only reason he's joined the Hito Pirates was to be able to blow things up, and that he has no particular loyalty to Hugh Man or the Hito Pirates in general.

After defeating Bob the crew scales Reverse Mountain and arrives at The Custodian's Club. There they encounter Celsius who leads them to the Club. Once he realizes that Yokan is a long arm and Bradley is a Fishman he commands DJ Riptide to lower The Custodian from the rafters. Bradley kills Celsius and the rest of Branch 101 takes down numerous Hito Pirates as well as making The Custodian admit defeat. They free a number of prisoners in cages that are visible from the dance floor. Branch 101 then makes their way to the basement where The Custodian had captured minks, devil fruit users, fishmen, and a long-limb human. This long-limb human was revealed immediately to be Yokan's cousin, Destiny. One of the Devil fruit users, Anchor Arms, admitted to being a pirate. Damian decided to allow him to temporarily join Branch 101 in order to help take down Alter. The Custodian and DJ Riptide were taken into the brig of the crew's marine ship.

Directly after the events at The Custodian's club, the crew traveled to Alter's island, encountering many zombie-like abominations. Alter was found inside of a church having cut off the hand off Bradley's sister, Selena. They did not hesitate in engaging in combat.
