“Wet-Haired Caribou” is a notorious rookie pirate who was present at the Sabaody Archipelago during the Straw Hat Pirates’ reunion. His bounty of Beli210,000,000 marks him as part of the new wave of rookie pirates with bounties surpassing Beli100,000,000.

He greatly admires Marshall D. Teach and aspires to join the Blackbeard Pirates.

He is the elder brother of “Blood Splatterer” Coribou, another infamous rookie pirate, and together they lead the Caribou Pirates. Both siblings gained notoriety for their actions against the Marines.

With bounties exceeding Beli70,000,000 each, they met the criteria to join the Fake Straw Hat Crew, but they abandoned the crew upon uncovering its deceit.

During the Fish-Man Island Saga, Caribou serves as a minor antagonist and later becomes the focus of the Caribou’s Kehihihihi in the New World cover story. Subsequently, he aligns himself with the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance during the Wano Country Arc.

Following the successful raid on Onigashima, Luffy permits Caribou to accompany the Straw Hats aboard the Thousand Sunny to Egghead.

What Is Caribou’s Height?

Caribou is not just any ordinary character; he stands tall at 228 cm (7’6″) and possesses an intense violent streak. His preferred method of dispatching his foes, particularly Marines, involves burying them alive, showcasing his ruthlessness.

What sets him apart is his unwavering belief in a higher power, which he uses to justify his gruesome actions. Caribou’s ego knows no bounds; he commits his atrocities in the name of his god and even seeks forgiveness for his enemies, showcasing his twisted sense of morality.

Driven by a thirst for infamy, Caribou constantly schemes ways to target and eliminate high-profile individuals. He even goes to the extent of infiltrating groups like the Straw Hat Pirates with the intent to betray and eliminate them from within.

His arrogance is palpable; when faced with a choice between using a Marine as a shield or outright killing him, he opts for the latter out of sheer pride.

This same pride leads him to underestimate opponents, as he disregards the abilities of others and pays the price for his overconfidence, as seen when he is swiftly defeated by Pekoms despite his Logia Devil Fruit powers.

What Are Caribou’s Abilities and Powers?

As co-captain of the Caribou Pirates, Caribou shares leadership with his brother Coribou, commanding authority over their crew.

This dynamic duo has made a name for themselves as formidable pirates, earning Super Rookie status for successfully navigating through Paradise, the treacherous first half of the Grand Line.

Caribou’s reputation as a fearsome adversary to the Marines precedes him, thanks to his ruthless tactics, fueled by his Devil Fruit powers, which have earned him a hefty bounty of Beli 210,000,000.

Under his leadership, the Caribou Pirates have demonstrated their prowess by easily overpowering members of the Fake Straw Hat Crew, leaving them helpless in their wake.

Moreover, Caribou’s strategic acumen led his crew and allies to a decisive victory against Scotch of the Beasts Pirates, utilizing his Devil Fruit abilities to overwhelm the enemy forces.

Notably, Caribou showcased his knack for controlling formidable creatures like Momoo, the massive sea beast, utilizing it to navigate the treacherous waters around Fish-Man Island.

In combat situations, Caribou heavily relies on his Devil Fruit powers, lacking proficiency in Haki techniques. Despite his intangibility granted by his Devil Fruit, his physical body proves to be vulnerable, often succumbing to opponents wielding Busoshoku Haki.

Instances of defeat at the hands of skilled fighters like Luffy, Pekoms, Jinbe, and X Drake highlight his susceptibility to such attacks, showcasing his reliance on his Devil Fruit abilities rather than honing his combat skills.

What Is Caribou’s Devil Fruit?

Caribou’s powers stem from consuming the Numa Numa no Mi, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that grants him control over the element of “swamp”. When transformed, his body takes on the properties of thick mud, akin to quicksand, which enables him to absorb objects into it effortlessly.

What sets his abilities apart is the seemingly limitless capacity of his swamp-like form, essentially granting him an infinite storage space within his own body.

Utilizing this unique ability, Caribou can conceal a vast array of items within his swampy form, holding onto them until he chooses to release them or loses consciousness.

His storage capacity extends to large objects, such as an entire weapons factory, and even individuals, allowing him to capture adversaries with remarkable ease. Resistance proves futile against Caribou’s powers; those caught in his swamp are drawn in inexorably, sinking deeper the more they struggle.

Caribou’s strategic prowess comes into play as he utilizes his stored arsenal, pulling out weapons at opportune moments to catch opponents off guard.

Moreover, he can employ his swampy form to overwhelm foes, either by suffocating them or by shrouding himself entirely to move stealthily and undetected through various environments.
