The past of the character Ace and the Spade pirates in One Piece was revealed in the novel about Ace by writer Shou Hinata, with the participation of author Eiichiro Oda in content. However, remember, all content in there is canon only!

In One Piece , at the age of 17, Ace said goodbye to Luffy to go to sea first. The young man landed on a beautiful island in East Blue: Sixis. This is a deserted island surrounded by special ocean currents, so once you step in, it’s difficult to get out alive. In addition to Ace, there was another person washed up on the island, a masked guy named Deuce.

The two experienced a terrible hunger and became close, working together to escape the island. Ace had the goal of surpassing the Pirate King while Deuce wanted to write his own adventure book, so the two entered the Grand Line together and founded the Spade pirates.

As a captain, Ace welcomes everyone who has no place to go or return to join his crew. Miharl and Skull are the next to become Ace’s teammates. Gradually, new members joined the Spade gang, and together they adventured to many places.

Before entering the New World, the Spade Pirates now had up to 20 members and a wildcat.

So, right now let’s take a look at the members of Fire Fist Ace’s Spade Pirates in One Piece!

1. Captain Portgas D. Ace

Before becoming Captain of the 2nd Company of the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace was the captain of the Spade Pirates, famous by the nickname “Fire Fist”.

Ace possesses a Logia-type Devil Fruit called Mera Mera no mi, which gives him the ability to create and control fire at his will. During the battle at the naval headquarters, Ace sacrificed himself to protect Luffy’s life from Akainu’s attack.

Ace’s fire fist bounty stood at 550,000,000 beri before his death and it was also the highest amount revealed in the series during the timeskip.

2. Masked Deuce

Masked Deuce was the alias used by the first member of the Spade Pirates due to him giving up his real name. Masked Deuce’s most prominent feature is the mask he wears over his eyes to hide his identity.

Deuce’s dream is to write his own adventure book and he is very loyal to Ace. Deuce has the ability to plan and strategize for the crew. He seems to have quite good physical strength as he was able to deal with many bounty hunters during the Spade pirates’ journey.

3.Miharl

Miharl used to work as a teacher with the desire to help children who cannot afford to go to school, but a fateful encounter with Ace turned him into a pirate.

He often wears glasses and a fedora and has a tall and thin physique, but in contrast to that “fragile” appearance, he is a guy with very good fighting ability. Miharl is the type of person who likes quiet and hates noisy places, so he always avoids outdoor activities and prefers to stay on the ship and read books. This is the reason why Miharl is also nicknamed “Indoor”.

3. Skull

Skull is one of the remaining “brain trio” of the Spade pirates. He is a skilled bounty hunter who always carries with him a beautiful skull-shaped gun.

He is very knowledgeable about pistols and has many skull-shaped accessories due to his hobby of collecting pirate items. He admires pirates so much that he often breaks into other pirate ships after hiding his face behind a skull mask. Ace also appreciated Skull because he had extensive knowledge of the pirate world.

Besides Deuce, Miharl and Skull who are the main brains, the Spade Pirates still have many other members but their abilities and strengths are still not well known so Gamek will only show you images of them. Please!
