Akainu

Akainu (real name Sakazuki) is the current Fleet Admiral in the World Government navy. During the timeskip, he rose to power after winning a duel against Aokiji for the position of Fleet Admiral. At Marineford, he sentenced Portgas D. Ace to be executed, but the proceedings turned into a bloody battle between the Government and the Whitebeard pirates trying to rescue their friend.

After gravely injuring Ace, he turned his sights to his brother. Luffy nearly forsook his title of being Pirate King, yet still won the fight.

Players can unlock him in the third game's Dream Log Mode.

Role in Games
At the conclusion of One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2, he joins with the pirates in an uneasy alliance against Blackbeard. In the True Ending, he is put under a mind control by Blackbeard to fight the alliance. Even though he is restored at the end of the battle, he still continues his hunt for the Straw Hat Pirates.

Personality
Akainu is a ruthless marine who shows no mercy to pirates and criminals. He sees all pirates as evil and will do everything in his power to destroy them. He is also a firm believer that the son carries the sins of his father, which is his driving force for personally seeking to kill Ace and Luffy himself during the Marineford battle. He follows his own very extreme view of justice, and is more than willing to eliminate anyone who gets in the way of his justice.

Fighting Style
With the power of the Magma Magma Fruit, Akainu can produce and manipulate lava/magma at will. His normal fighting style consists of him turning his entire arm(s) into magma, and using it to attack enemies. In addition, he could turn his own body into magma to avoid damage. By using his R1 in conjunction with his lava attacks, Akainu is exceptional at dealing large damages to crowds.
