Yurikah

Yurikah is the captain of the Tulip Pirates that attacked Mirrorball Island in Jango’s cover story.

Appearance

Yurikah is a tall man, with black hair shaped into the shape of a tulip, and two white strands resembling leaves. He wears a dark colored coat with tulip petals on the end on the sleeves, and light colored dots and frills at the bottom. He wears a light colored sash and shoes, and is seen carrying two swords. His black shoes are also decorated with white tulips.

Personality

Yurikah is a vicious and evil pirate, since he took a woman hostage so Fullbody would stop fighting back against his crew. He then took pleasure in beating the Marine to the ground, showing his hostile and brutal nature.

Abilities and Powers

Yurikah is a strong captain, since he was able to defeat Lieutenant Fullbody without a scratch when his crew could not lay a finger on the Marine. However, he was bested when Jango attacked, freeing the hostage and allowing for Fullbody to return to the fight and double team Yurikah and his crew with Jango.

Weapons

Yurikah has been seen with a pair of swords and appears to be quite proficient in using one of them effectively.

History

Jango’s Dance Paradise

After Jango left the island, Yurikah appeared and his men attacked Fullbody, who did well against them until Yurikah took a hostage. Unwilling to let the hostage get hurt, Yurikah had nearly defeated Fullbody until Jango arrived and freed the hostage, which allowed Fullbody to knock Yurikah out with a well-placed smack to the jaw. After the fight, Yurikah is seen lying unconscious.
