Jewelry Bonney, also known as the "Big Eater", is a pirate from the South Blue and the captain of the Bonney Pirates. She is one of twelve pirates who are referred to as the "Worst Generation".
Bonney is the daughter of Ginny and the adopted daughter of Bartholomew Kuma, the former King of the Sorbet Kingdom (making her Sorbet's former princess). Bonney lived inside Kuma's church throughout her childhood due to a rare disease known as Sapphire Scales that she inherited from her mother. After Kuma sacrificed his body to the World Government in exchange for curing Bonney, she ventured forth from her home to become a pirate in search of her father.
Thanks to experiments conducted by Jaygarcia Saturn of the Five Elders, Bonney inherited the powers of the Toshi Toshi no Mi, which allows her to manipulate the age of herself and others at will. Although she typically uses her ability to appear as a young woman in her twenties, Bonney is in fact still a little girl, having been ten years old during her debut and now being twelve after the timeskip.
Upon reaching the Sabaody Archipelago, Bonney had a bounty of 140,000,000. Two years later, it was raised to 320,000,000.
Bonney is a 12-year-old little girl who is slim despite the enormous amount of food she consumes regularly. She has long light pink hair and brown eyes (purple in the anime). Due to her Devil Fruit ability, she can alter her age and thus change her appearance at will. Her most common appearance in public is that of a curvaceous, taller and more buxom young woman in her early 20s with less childish facial features.
Her outfit consists of a white low-cut tank top, along with a pair of orange-and-black striped buckled shorts with long, thin suspenders. She also wears black high-heeled boots that reach to her calves, with large laces coming from the openings, and a pair of hot pink and dark red stockings with a yellow sun-like motif on them (a pattern seen other times in the One Piece world). She has a golden anti-eyebrow below her right eye where her Sapphire Scales used to be, which she adorned hoping it would help her father recognize her. She also wears bright red lipstick on the middle of her lips due to not knowing how to apply lipstick properly. She consistently wears a brown furred jacket and a green Furażerka hat with a light-green lining that has foldable earflaps that can be pulled down for disguise and cold weather; she received both of these items from Conney when she escaped from government custody.
Bonney's common outfit did not change much after the timeskip; she now wears pink lipstick instead of the red one from two years ago and a new white tank top with frills among the rim. During the Punk Hazard Arc, Bonney was shown wearing a black hat (possibly a sunhat) and a furred, hooded coat, likely due to the winter island she was seen on at the time.
During the Egghead Arc, Bonney wears no hat. Through the use of a clothes-changing machine at Egghead, Bonney started wearing a purple leotard bodysuit with a hood, along with purple gloves, thigh-length purple leggings, an earpiece, and a pair of purple DOM Shoes.
In accordance with her true age, Bonney's personality is not unlike that of an ordinary kid, being playful, energetic and rather innocent. She is sometimes described as "vulgar" due to her lack of maturity contrasting with the adult figure she generally prefers presenting herself as. However, Bonney is not entirely childish, and in comparison to certain older characters like Monkey D. Luffy, she can come off as more reasonable and less simple-minded, even if only slightly.
Befitting her epithet, Bonney is an extremely gluttonous person with very poor table manners. She will, for instance, demand more food even though she has not finished her current meal. She is usually seen eating pizza, her favorite food, even when fighting or on the run. She shares this quirk with her mother, Ginny, who was similarly insatiable when it came to eating.
Bonney has always displayed an aggressive temper and rude attitude, seemingly stemming from her early childhood as a frequent victim of bullying due to her rare medical condition, which prevented her from socializing with other children normally. Still, even at the young age of five, Bonney knew how to be tactful and show restraint, mostly to prevent upsetting her father Kuma. Said mindset extends to this day, as she knows when to fight and when to prevent trouble, particularly in dangerous territories such as the Sabaody Archipelago. When she saw Zoro attempting to attack a World Noble, she orchestrated a scene to fake Zoro's death and prevent an escalation, knowing full well that such a thing would have led to terrible consequences. However, this sense of caution is overwritten when enticing food is involved, similar to Luffy and Chopper.
Being young, Bonney believes in the stereotypical view of what a pirate should be, that being of selfish, violent plunderers (although she still encourages some degree of morality going by her own personal code). For Bonney, all pirates should follow an unspoken agreement of not creating a stir in delicate situations, and that the idea of a pirate helping wounded strangers also leaves her dumbfounded. However, even Bonney is not against losing control of her emotional urges to confront those others would dare not; while she was originally against the idea of defying the World Nobles of Sabaody Archipelago, due to their statuses and the consequences that would be incurred, when she realized that her father's mind was killed on the orders of Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, Bonney did not hesitate in attacking him, ironically disregarding the consequences herself. Several instances suggest that Bonney has an unforgiving disposition towards those who wrong her, holding grudges and cursing their name.
Bonney may not be a pleasant individual, but she is capable of respecting others; particularly her fellow members of the Worst Generation, having shown a keen interest in Monkey D. Luffy and Trafalgar Law's exploits. She had a genuinely warm relationship with her father, Bartholomew Kuma, as she was heartbroken upon witnessing his brutal enslavement at Mary Geoise and even defended a Pacifista unit that resembled her father. Bonney loves Kuma dearly and has been driven primarily by her desire to be reunited with him, especially after learning about his ultimate fate as a mindless cyborg during the Summit War of Marineford.
Bonney has a severe case of entomophobia, as she fainted from the sight of a whole horde of insects rushing at her. She is pretty vindictive about this aspect of her personality as well, becoming unreasonable and murderous against those who employ her fear against her, regardless of whether or not it was intentional of their part.
Family Crew
Many members of her crew, such as Gyogyo, were former Sorbet citizens who were close to Kuma and Bonney's mother Ginny, and in turn acted as her friends and caregivers prior to her pirate career. On Conney's suggestion, her crew modified a fishing vessel into a pirate ship, and assisted Bonney's escape from the government's custody.
Rivals
Being one of the Eleven Supernovas, Bonney can be counted on as a potential rival to any of the other 10 for the top position of the sea.
As the captain of the Bonney Pirates, Bonney has complete authority over the crew. As a member of the Worst Generation, she is a powerful pirate. Bonney and her crew had a reputation for attacking the elderly and children, although those were in fact merely Marines affected by Bonney's abilities. This brutal reputation, along with her successfully avoiding and escaping capture from the World Government for so long, helped turning her into one of the most infamous rookie pirates in the world, following in her adoptive father's footsteps. Before the timeskip, she had a bounty of 140,000,000, after the timeskip, it rose to 320,000,000.
Over seven years ago, Bonney contracted the extremely rare Sapphire Scales illness, the same that killed her mother. Because of this disease, Bonney's skin became susceptible to natural light sources. Upon completing the experimental stem cell transplant therapy, Bonney was completely cured and able to come into contact to light without any harm.
It is known that she has been training her body and stamina since she was six, in order to eventually sail the seas with her father. At eight years old, Bonney already knew how to fight and defeat adult opponents. By the time she started her piracy career at the ripe age of nine, Bonney could already beat a member of Cipher Pol, a feat that is nothing short of extraordinary for a normal pirate, let alone a child.
Bonney currently has the highest authority in commanding the Pacifistas, surpassing the Five Elders, a fact that she was unaware of until Vegapunk told her. This only applies to those who resemble her father, Kuma. Due to this, she became a high priority target of the Marines.
Past
Twelve years ago, Bonney was born the daughter of Ginny, a commander of the Revolutionary Army who was kidnapped and forcibly made the wife of a World Noble. However, the identity of Bonney's biological father remains unknown. Jaygarcia Saturn appeared to be close to the World Noble in that he was aware of the previous seven wives of said Noble with Ginny being the eighth. While Bonney was still a baby, Saturn performed an experiment to test whether a Devil Fruit could be given to an infant via an extract, which turned out to be a success on Bonney who was given the Toshi Toshi no Mi in the process. However, due to a separate experiment performed on her mother that ended in failure, with both Ginny and Bonney contracting the Sapphire Scales disease and were thrown out of Mary Geoise. Ginny used the last bits of her strength to sail to Sorbet Kingdom with Bonney, where she finally died. Bartholomew Kuma then arrived and promised to raise Bonney, with the church-going elders assisting him. Around the time Bonney became a toddler, she started developing symptoms of Sapphire Scales as well, forcing her to remain inside the now-barricaded chapel to avoid the sunlight. Many doctors attempted to examine Bonney but were unable to identify her specific condition. By age five, Bonney was constantly bullied for the stone-like protrusion that had grown under her eye, but she was able to fend off her annoyers by herself, as Kuma tried to keep her away from the sun. At one point in her life, Kuma asked Bonney about locations she would like to visit once cured, showing interest in places like the Sky Islands and Fish-Man Island. Later, at one specific night, a doctor was able to successfully diagnose Bonney's illness. He informed Kuma about the disease's specifics, admitting it was terminal and that Bonney would only last until her tenth year of life, at maximum. Bonney, overhearing this whole conversation, misunderstood the doctor's words, interpreting his diagnosis as her being free of her illness once she became ten years old. Now happy and hopeful, Bonney surprised her father about what she understood was going to be her eventual cure, with Kuma being unable to tell her the truth. Sometime after age five, Bonney subconsciously accessed the power of the Toshi Toshi no Mi, giving her the power to freely alter her appearance age-wise. She started to build up her stamina so she could travel with Kuma, unaware that she had taken an adult form until seeing herself in the mirror. From that point on, Bonney tried to control her ability in order to get older faster, despite Kuma's protests. When Bulldog and his mother Conney showed up at the church to speak with Kuma, Bonnie managed to age herself up into an elderly appearance by using Conney as a model. Bonney later bid goodbye to her father when the latter decided to leave Sorbet following Bekori's false propagandizing of Kuma as a tyrant, staying under the care of King Bulldog and his mother Conney and proclaiming that she would join with her father as a pirate by age ten. By age eight, she learned how to fight through the kingdom's royal guard. When Kuma eventually returned, he took Bonney to Egghead, under the justification of a regular checkup, and left her in Sentomaru's company. Unbeknown to Bonney, Dr. Vegapunk planned to cure her using stem cell technology after striking a deal with her father, who later had to accept more terms after Saturn and the Marines became involved and her own life became a bargaining chip. Clueless about the inhumane conditions that her father had to accept for her medical operation's approval (all kept a secret by Kuma's own request), Bonney would happily spend the next half a year receiving surgical treatment at Egghead in Kuma's company, as well as that of Vegapunk, Sentomaru and occasionally Borsalino's, leading to all of them growing close. Bonney also made a scribbly drawing of her father during this period, which Kuma would then adopt as his Jolly Roger later on. After six months, Bonney's disease was considered mostly cured by Vegapunk, although she was still required to spend another year away from natural sunlight at the Sorbet Kingdom, again per Kuma's request. Back in her homeland, Bonney was welcomed by the citizens and reunited herself with Queen Conney, who intended to take care of her once more. She also met Alpha, a CP8 agent posing as nurse who would be in charge of monitoring her full recovery, not knowing that she was in truth being kept hostage by her. Kuma, who was not allowed to meet Bonney ever again due to the agreement he had made with the World Government, bid his daughter a final farewell without telling her about all the sacrifices he had made for her good health, only thanking her for being born and existing in his life. As Kuma left the kingdom, Bonney cheered for him alongside the rest of the citizens. Since Kuma's departure, Bonney would wait repeatedly for letters from Kuma, unaware that said letters were intercepted and confiscated by Alpha. One day, when Bonney was sparring with Gyogyo with her ability active, Alpha briefly stumbled into a transformed Bonney, but the latter was quick to detransform in order to keep her abilities a secret per Conney's advice. On September 1st, Bonney celebrated her ninth birthday party with the residents of Sorbet. As they fell asleep, she went to check the mailbox for letters from Kuma, but again found nothing to her frustration. Half a year later, Bonney's Sapphire Scales had been fully cured, but Alpha refused to allow her outside claiming she needed to stay until she turned ten, which outraged Bonney as that contradicted what Vegapunk had told her. Conney revealed to Bonney that she overheard that Alpha was in fact a government agent and that she had let slip that the illness was already cured. Conney went on to orchestrate a plan to allow Bonney to escape to sea and find Kuma, disguising herself as an elderly Bonney while the real Bonney disguised as Conney went off to an escape ship with Gyogyo and other fishermen. Alpha caught on to this plan and chased after Bonney at sea. Bonney then recalled a conversation she had with Kuma about what Nika looked like and used the information her father had told her to manifest a giant, rubbery fist and defeat Alpha.
East Blue Saga
As Bonney took to the sea to become a pirate, she officially formed the Bonney Pirates. For the following year, she and her crew journeyed the seas to find Kuma, getting into scuffles with the Marines and earning a reputation for targeting children and the elderly (actually just a misunderstanding caused by her Devil Fruit's effects). One day, Bonney and her crew tracked Kuma to a certain island and fought with the stationed Marines there. While Kuma was indeed present at the island, he teleported away to prevent an encounter out of concern for her safety. This did not discourage Bonney, however, and she resumed her journey with the intent of becoming famous enough that her father would eventually notice her. She also showed a desire to meet Nika as well. At some point, Bonney entered the Grand Line, earning herself a bounty of 140,000,000 and becoming a very infamous pirate by the time her crew reached the Sabaody Archipelago. She also became a high-priority target for the World Government to recover.
