Franky

Franky (フランキー) is a shipwright of the Straw Hats pirates and the eighth member of Luffy's crew. He meets the pirates when they sailed into Water 7 so they could repair their ship. Franky's posse stole the crew's money and beat up Usopp, which led to Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and Chopper defeating his gang in response. Later he helped Straw-Hats in their fight against CP-9 and even defeated one their members, Fukuro.

Franky was rescued by shipwright Tom and was raised by him. When he was 12 Tom was arrested for building the ship for a Gol D. Roger, a man who later became known as a "King of Pirates". While Tom was able to redeem himself by building a Sea Train, Spandam framed him by using battleships built by Franky and had Tom sentenced to death. Trying to save him, Franky was run down by the train that Tom built. After that, he rebuilt his body and turned himself into cyborg. While helping Straw-Hats in their quest to save Nico Robin he destroyed "Pluton" blueprints and later joined Luffy's team.

Personality
Franky, like the other Straw-Hats, is strong-willed, eccentric and carefree individual; he uses the catch phrase "SUPER!" while striking his signature pose. He is very proud of his title as "pervert" and takes this a compliment. He is very emotional.

Fighting Style
Franky is a cyborg, possessing a mostly artificial body with mechanical parts. As such, he is equipped with a wide variety of weapons and tools, including several guns and cannons, an extendable right arm, the ability to breathe fire, and much more. His body relies on Cola as an energy source, and running out makes his attacks less effective. He is also proficient in hand-to-hand combat. It is up to players to manage his Cola resources while fighting.

After the timeskip, Franky further upgraded his body, equipping himself with a laser cannon similar to those found on Pacifista models. He has also constructed a giant robot that resembles him that he can pilot, which is basically a giant mecha. He no longer relies on Cola, and his attacks have a wider area of effect than before.
