**Cain Ulner,** known as **"Bloody Fist",** is a player character in One Piece; The Aftermath. He is a pirate who is currently the first mate of the **White Hair Pirates** led by **Hiroh,** as well as a former member of the **Pythios Blizzard,** a pirate crew that was led by **Taejin** as well as a temporary member of the **Forging Path Pirates** led by **Dominic Blackstone.** He is played by **TimmyTimothyOTim** and is one of the first players of the campaign

During the Events of the Fishman Anhillation Tournement, Cain would be squared off against "The Orge" in the first round; pushing himself and the monster of a man to their limit and beyond but just falling short of victory by a narrow slither

## Appearance

A six foot tanned skin muscular behemoth of a man, always wearing ragged pants with tattered brown boots. Sporting a long unkept brown beard and short Cesar haircut whilst not in his hybrid form. Whilst in hybrid form, his hair grows in length and becomes more free-flowing, as well as parts of his body turn ocean blue like the Namazu.

## Personality

Cain is a Fierce and Unwavering individual who is extremely loyal towards his friends. Willing to do whatever it takes to protect them, and should he fail to do so, he'll be damn sure to avenge them. Such as he did with his Friend **Pedro Barri** when he died on **Conomi Islands** at the hands of an Octopus Fishman known as **Squib.** His Unwavering determination to never give in is always expressed as he fights; despite having a disadvantage he'll always push himself to beyond his limits and even further beyond that.

He has a bit of a soft-side despite that fierceness, as shown with his relationship involving his current captain: **Hiroh.** Where he started off, constantly beating the shit out of him in sparring in an attempt to make him get stronger and be able to fight alongside him without worry.

## Abilities/Powers/Equipment

### **Overview**

Cain is self taught and has no formal combat training to speak of. All of his attacks primarily being punches. He makes use of swift and powerful punches with him typically dropping his guard and forsaking any defensive advantage to take any openings or get an upper hand anywhere he can. This heavily relies on his instincts as he'll usually follow a gut feeling if he believes it'll help him in any way.

Cain is heavily experienced in naval travel, but lacks the actual ability to navigate and traverse the oceans with any actual direction or accuracy. While Cain is not an idiot, he is a simpleton and lacks the ability to see the bigger picture and suffers from tunnel vision more often than not. Should Cain be driven with purpose, he is relentless and uncaring in his pursuit for his goals. Cain's battles aren't won through strategy or technique, rather a battle of attrition and sundering fire power. He will grind you into dust or die trying.

### **Fighting Style**

Cain's spirit has manifested into that of a bear where his feral nature is shown and gives him inhuman resistance to punishment. This give him the ability to stand down any foe. Cain's plan of attack can be summed up as trading punches as he isn't afraid to get hurt or get up close and personal as his first and only plan of attack. He possess a set of shock gauntlets that he uses as the primary choice of weaponary to give those punchs a Pack-A-Punch of power with shocking blows. Additionally, he holds onto a set of knuckle dusters known as the **Bloody Sundays**. Which are modifed brass knuckles with extra spikes to cause bleeding and piercing wounds to his opponents.

## Relationships

### White Hair Pirates

#### Pedro Barro

Pedro was Cain's first proper friend he made upon his starting journey as a Pirate. They spent a few days together and bonded with each other. Unfortunately, this friendship wouldn't last as when they arrived on **Conomi Island,** Pedro sacrificed himself to save Cain from certain death against a Fishman known as **Squib.**

By a strange coincidence; Cain and Pedro would meet once again (however this Pedro did not pertain the memories that Cain had of him) at **God's Garden.** The Bloody Fist holds anger towards this version of Pedro for looking like the same as his friend did.

## History

### **Pre-Campaign**

Born a sickly child, constantly having to remain bedridden, trapped inside the confines of a four walled prison that was his home. Never allowed freedom due to his illness by his family; until one day, a strange doctor arrived on his doorstep, claiming to be visiting. An oddly dressed man wearing a dark long leather gown, Lengthy pale purple hair and a birchwood cane. Using his medical expertise, he was able to swiftly cured Cain of his ailment. Even choosing to visit him every day and tell stories of famous pirates and tales of wondrously amazing adventures across the seas for the next several days, until one morning, as Cain eagerly awaited the pleasant man to arrive.... he never came back. Waiting...and waiting for year after year until the realization hit that maybe the doctor was not coming back, a 12 year old Cain abandoned his home and committed theft, taking a rowboat only to end up washing ashore an unfamiliar island on his searches. Never giving up his search efforts looking for the doctor for a few more years. During those years, he would always stop, and reflect on how the doctor gave him a second chance to live freely...and perhaps in a way wished for him to life his own life. He eventually stopped his meticulous search and began a new life. A much more free and fulfilling life... on the ocean blue as a pirate!

### **The Hellish Conomi Saga**

#### Five-Point Island! Meeting Mr. Yakuza!

Before Arriving at Five Point Island, Cain came across his trusty knuckledusters known as the **Bloody Sundays** on Orange Islands. After he arrived at Five-Point Island, he swiftly encountered Pedro and made acquaintance with Mr. Yakuza and assisted in fending off a pirate invasion on the island alongside him. They eventually left the island shortly afterwards; setting sail for Conomi unaware what awaited them there.

#### The Hell of Conomi Islands! Cain & Co Arrive!

Cain and Pedro had both docked on the shore in their small boat, before the muscleman noticed a strange non human figure coming towards him. Which upon a closer inspection was a Squid Fishman, the first of the Fishman Race either Cain or Pedro had ever seen before. Having tried to converse with the Squidman, despite its speaking of gibberish that the man could not understand; he critically failed to gauge the intentions of the tentacle terror and barely had just enough time to bring his arms up Infront of his body to minimize the impactful damage of the Squib's Octo-whip barrage. Unfortunately, he was unable to protect Pedro as the barrage manages to catch his friend off guard and knock him unconscious for the time being.

Cain, enraged by what he witnessed; donned his **Bloody Sunday** knuckledusters and began laying in his fists towards the freaky fishman with his best efforts...but it wasn't enough. As the squid stared and smashed him into the ground with all Six of his tentacles, defeating the 6ft tall muscular man with relative ease. Being chained up and imprisoned inside the Neptune's garden hotel, before he broke free and escaped.

The brutal barbarian would later encounter Squib again, revitalized after his defeat; witnessing his friend **Pedro** Breathing Heavily*.* Severely wounded and bloodied to near death. His friend knowing he couldn't exactly win against this guy. Having got lucky. Some nice old lady saved his ass from death and brought him to Cocoyashi to recover, with unrest and fear caused by Squib's arrival forcing his hand to act. Which allowed the now healthy Cain to launch his own surprise barrage, infuriated by the Hell he'd experienced from the Squid. Unleashing a flurry of three blows, the first shot, a devastating right hook to its face, busting blood from its mouth in a glorious red squirt. As the scarlet liquid covered Cain's fists he wasted no time following up with a brutal uppercut to the Abdomen! Cain felt the squid visually wince in pain as he heard a cracking of bone and Squib throws up more blood*.* The euphoria of the battle and sweet revenge pumping through Cains veins as he swiftly got behind Squib and dropped a hard elbow on to what he assumed was Squibs neck. For a brief moment..... it looked like Squib was going to fall to the ground defeated! But the fishy fiend managed to use one of its tentacles to grab Cain's free arm and remain standing.

The Fishman unleashing a panic induced frenzy of lethal strikes, fully intending on killing Cain **however,** shoved out of the way. In an act of self sacrifice for his friend, Pedro saves Cain, a smile on his face as Cain is forced to watch his first friend meet the fate that should of befell him **being ripped apart, limb from limb.** His body in a mangled mess of blood and flesh remaining on the group. The fate that would befallen you had he rushed over and not pushed you away to safety in exchange for his own life

Cain felt something welling up inside of himself. Something he'd not felt before

Was it sadness? No....

It was anger, anger that surpassed his own rage. A different form of rage, a beastial aggression most likely spurned from instinct. He glared towards Squib, his primal vision locking the fishman dead in the eyes. The look not of a man but a wild beast on the hunt. A savage bear ready to slaughter.

The look of the feral beast stunned Squib alone. He couldn't move. He couldn't run. His judgement was coming. Cain slammed his fists into one of his tentacles, gripping it tightly before tearing it from the squid then the next one and the next one, each more violently than the last. He continued in his instinctive rage to tear him apart until every one of his tentacles are lifeless on the ground. His main means of offense now crippled. But it hasn't sated Cain's bloodlust he was an animal on the hunt. A beast on the prowl, ready to devour his prey. Squib made a mistake, so did the Kaiser for they choose to mess with him and his friends.

They opened up a new hell, and they'll have first class rooms inside of it.

Squibs face It is protruding fear. The once killing machine lap dog of Kaiser Neptune. Who did his orders without question experiences fear for the first time in his life. But his body wouldn't listen to him. It would not move. It was faltering. It had betrayed him. He stood trapped in the vision of a ferocious barbarian a vicious and merciless monster not even God could save him now.

Cain decided to end things once and for all; he plunged his fist through Squib's torso and threw his limp body against a wall. Cain proceeded to pound the body until he is hitting nothing but wet mushes of flesh. Now, as he stood over the body of the Squib, he let out a loud and guttural roar from the top of his lungs, victorious. Squib had been slain. Nothing remained. What was once a fearless squid fishman who served with undying loyalty. Reduced to nothing more than liquidated flesh. His blood stains over Cain's torso and fists. For Pedro.... for all the people that have died because of this heartless monster.....They've all been avenged.

Light droplets of water began to fall from the sky, a quick shower becomes heavy rain. Cain stood over his fallen ally. His one true friend. The Rain, masquerading any tears he may have. The weather repersenting the mixxed emotions of the villagers that were watching from inside there homes. They watched... Helplessly as a Man fought on their behalf. His friend dying because he choose to save his buddy despite his injuries. They feel guilt.... remorse....pity for Cain. He dropped to his knees, embracing the almogom of flesh that was once a friend that he fought with and had ultimately died for him. Clutching it tightly and eventually letting go afte a little while. With rage still permeating in his eyes, he stood up and looked forward..... *"You're next... Fish King."*

The rain still fall. It bounces off of Cain's body as his gazes locks onto Neptunes Garden

All your childhood... they let you know.... How far you would not go. Always locked inside your home whilst the beast still grows within you.... its been waiting, chewing through the ropes. It finally broke though the emotional chains that were holding it back... Unleashing the Animal residing inside of you

The trauma of losing another person close to him... he remembered the doctor that cured him that day. Another person he had lost in your life. He saved him and never came back.

He had been alone for along time on his journey... Then it all changed with Pedro. When he met him, he finally gained a friend. Cain and him helped defend Five Point island from pirates. Befriended Mr. Yakuza and came to Conomi looking for adventure!

But then... it all came spiraling downwards. he had become stronger Cain... But was it worth the cost? The sacrifice? no..... Kaiser will pay for what he's caused.. All the suffering he had put you through. You'd make sure of it. The seathing rage of his eyes hadn't stopped. Adrenaline coursing through his veins with every type he takes. He has no intention of stopping. His mind maybe brimming with rage but his vision and goal is clear : Take down the Kaiser. As he began to slowly and sluggishly stomp towards the location of Kaiser... **Neptune's Garden.**

#### Cain Enters the Garden

*Stood before the entrance of the hotel known as **Neptune's Garden** was Crusty, a crab fishman under the services of **Kaiser Neptun.** he watched as he saw Cain's bloodied body and crimson soaked fists slowly walk towards him.* *He bowed slightly, opening the doors of the Hotel for him. Allowing him to pass through into the Main Lobby without any issue whislt Cain brushed past him and walked in the direction he thought the Kaizer would be. As Crusty closed the hotel doors behind him.*

*Cain entered into the main lobby. The atmosphere is surreal. Its silent. The light is dim, darkness consumes most of the room, only where he stand had some light.* *The curtains of the lobby were closed shut. The absence of brightness is setting the mood. He had entered the Sanctuary of the Kaiser....* *knowing full well he might not walk out of there alive.*

*He began to explore the hotel, looking for the Kaiser, kicking down every door until he found him, first checking Room 304 of the hotel, which contained the the scent of blood and rotting meat. A foul odor. On the floor laid a rotting corpse of a male, about 5'5ft, a mostly bullet ridden marine justice coat with "Justice" Written in a Turkey emblem on the back as maggots and insects thrived inside it. Next he checked another room. it was empty, then another, so on so forth until he kicked open a room containing two female merfolk; One with short b lack hair, red eyes and a black tail. The other with long blonde hair, blue eyes and a white tail. Probing them for information; he discovered Kaiser Neptune resides at the pool. Making his way to the pool as the rain continued to pour heavily, he encountered the piranha Fishman who glanced at him unimpressed. Before sitting up, his hands together as he looked dead serious at Cain before commenting "You've given away the element of surprise. I was even going to let you have the first move.... for my amusement" before he sighed "Alas, you are just another foolish human walking to his own demise." as he grabbed a golden Trident from where he sat with the two clashing.*

Cain instantly rushed into the battle, scoring a critical strike against the aquatic creature; right to the jaw as blood trickled out, the fishman maintaining his unimpressed look, with the Kaiser retaliating with his teeth tearing a piece of flesh from Cain's shoulder, whilst his jaws were gripped firmly into Cain's body, before he followed up with his trident stabbing at his other shoulder using his free arm. Going all out; the bloody fist unleashed a daring reckless attack; pummeling away into Kaiser, shot after shot with his fists. Kaiser just stood unphased by them, smiling as the rain washed away the blood off his face before slamming the blunt end of the Trident into Cain's skull, knocking him to the ground. Dropping the trident, he picked Cain up by the skull, mocking him before handing him to Clauncher, to have Cain enslaved and fight for his amusement.

Cain later woke up, chained in the basement of the hotel and forced to fight to the death with another individual, a civilian named **Jeff.** Unable to free himself or the other; he requested **Jeff** make peace with themselves before raising his fist in the air, slamming it down on top of him as hard as his body would allow, causing Jeff's spine to shatter and his to go inwards into his torso, instantly killing him. Cain would later be set free by **Captain Mcknight,** who grants him some experimental medicine to temporarily recover from his wounds and injuries.

#### A Will to Fight; Cain's Kaiser Rematch!

Shortly after his freedom by McKnight's hands; he would clash against **Crusty,** The Crabfishman of Kaiser Neptun's forces. A Back and forth fist fight, with the crab at the clear advantage...until Cain scored a critical blow; breaking open the crabs exoskeleton of bone and plate; exposing soft crab flesh ripe for the striking which he proceeded to plunge his other fist RIGHT into the opening, Pummeling his internal body, dealing MASSIVE damage and rupturing some of his internal organs in the process... All whilst with the look on his face.... the same with Squib... a Beast on the Hunt! A Predator on the Prowl. Crusty Barely stands as you remove the bloodied fist from his gaping chest wound. In his critical state, seeing no meaning to dying there, the Crab chose to disengage and dive out of one of the broken windows cain had previously made nearby..... With the last of his moment movement in the rain, he reached the end of the pool area, linked directly to the ocean and dived into it escaping.

Leaving Cain to hunt down Kaiser for their rematch; his body feeling stronger and ready.... as a **Mammoth** crashes through the hotel suddenly, destroying the entrance and the first few floors and rooms, as Cain barely manages to dodge out the way of the drugged up, out of control behemoth. Him, the mammoth and Kaiser now all in fighting distance the ruined throne room. Cain witnesses Kaiser he picks up the mammoth by the tusk and Judo slams it into where the pool is, smashing into the ground, causing the island to experience a tremour. As the fight gets underway; Cain manages to land a critical blow as the Kaiser launches the mammoth into the ocean. The pirahna then proceeded to throw Cain into the remains of the hotel. a Small box drops on his head.

The Kaiser coming towards him, Cain forces open the box; revealing inside the contents inside to be a Devil Fruit (Hana Hana No Mi) and a Pair of Gauntlets. With not much time to use both; he opted for the Gauntlets, adorning them and bursting from the rubble; dealing a shocking blow to the Kaiser. Giving him the strength he needed... to almost finish the Kaiser... had his body not given into the side effects of the medicine he took. Fallen to the ground; concious but unable to move; Cain watched and listened to the Kaiser's rambblings as the fishman destroyed the devil fruit and left.

#### Post Conomi Victory

With Kaiser's defeat and leaving of Conomi; Cain was viewed as the Hero of the island. Gaining the reputation of the "**Bloody Fist".** He shortly leaves the island afterwards; finding a sword that previously belonged to **Jin Haillong** before leaving the island entirely on a small boat provided by what the people could spare. Solemly hurt over his defeat, Cain began to travel once again; Alone. Drifting without purpose, until he arrived at Salvok

### To the Grandline Saga

#### Danger Ahead! Reverse Moutain

During Cain's travel up Reverse Mountain; upon arriving, he showed a small smile and a moment of happiness upon looking at the entrance to the Grandline which he had only heard in stories. He would shortly spot the Forging Path Pirates, whos captain, Dominic was drowning in the waters alongside Jayden. Calling for Az to toss him the ship rope, which cain launched forth towards the drowning Jayden; priortising him over the submerged dominic. Dragging the young boy onto his ship; he yelled to Az and Flint who were bickering over saving the drowning people if they had no money. Seeing the situation as dire; Cain tied the rope around him, securing the other end tightly around the mast as he went to dive into the water in order to save the other drowning individual. However, his act of heroism was halted as he witnessed Dominic sore from the ocean, crashing upon the deck of the forging path's ship as Cain's gaze locked eyes with his mortal nemesis rising from the water: Kaiser Neptun. He ran to leap over onto their ship as Kaiser lunged at Dominic; only for the nimble adventure to land onto Cain's ship and evade, costing Flint (Cain's Navigator) his life as he was struck into the ocean and his arm ripped off as Cain watched in rage. He attempted to go after Kaiser within the rapids; but it was too late. He had been dragged to the top of Reverse Mountain as the Kaiser had submerged into the waters once more. As they arrived at the Twin peaks; the exit into the Grandline, Cain slammed his fist into the deck of the ship; frustated and seathing with violent urges that not only had he lost his navigator but **another** friend at the hands of the Piranha Fishman.

### Birth of the White Hairs

#### Land of the Monkeys! Marquis Forest

Cain and the Rest of the White Hairs would later encounter Leralia, a Burkan girl staring towards the ocean, gazing at an oncoming ship. Upon noticing the ship his blood began to boil.... the jolly roger that flew above aboard the ship coming into closer view.... it triggered immense hatred.... as that flag... was the same flag that once submerged the Conomi Islands in torential terror. The Jolly Roger of the **Neptun Pirates**.Led by **Kaiser Neptun.** Cain gripped his fists so tightly, the palm of his hands began to bleed. His form stuck between his human and hybrid, unable to quite control his transformation and covered in various fish features, but not entirely transformed.

Looking towards the Caravel Ship, adorned in barnacles and watery bluish green colour with a Kraken as the figurehead. Cain and the other White Hair Pirates saw on the figure stood upon the figurehead; A Metalic Grey Barracuda Fishman wearing a Navy Blue German style military outfit and a Watery Green brodie helmet with the Neptun Pirates Roger embedded onto the center. The ships acting captain: **General Fin.**

Anger that has only been familiar to Cain once begins to surpass any means of reason. The pain and feeling of helplessness resurfaced as his face of concentration of unbridled fury and rage seem to only increase with every passing second. His thoughts scattered and mind blurry he manages out a single sentence. **"Where. Is. He?"** as the Shipped docked on the island, half a mile from their location inside the **Bananna Split Cove.** With the White Hair Pirates & Leralia heading towards them.

With Hiroh stupidily and naviely approaching the Ship despite the others advising a suprise attack on them, an exchange of words between **General Fin,** led to them fighting; with Cain using his Uo Uo no Mi; Model Namazu for the first time in combat; and knocking out **General Fin** for latter intergoration; whilst the other White Hair Pirates incapasitated his other crew members. They would shortly after take the ship that belonged to them: **The Barracuda.**
