York, also known as Punk-06, is a major antagonist in the One Piece franchise. She is one of the Satellites of Dr. Vegapunk, embodying the aspect of "desire". She is then revealed to be a traitor who aspires to become the only Vegapunk as well as a Celestial Dragon by killing the real Vegapunk and the other Satellites, having held CP5, CP7 and CP8 agents as hostages.
However, her plans backfired when she was defeated and detained by the Straw Hats and CP0 alliance, in order to prevent her from using the Seraphims to do her dirty work, thus ending her weakly schemes. She is a coward to the core, shamelessly begging the World Government for rescue when her capture was imminent.
She is voiced by Mutsumi Tamura (who also voiced Epimenides in Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, Fenrir as a child and Daruizen in Healin' Good♥Pretty Cure) in Japanese.
Appearance[]
York is a young-looking woman of incredible size, standing twice the height of Brook. She has long and wavy light hair and patches of freckles under her eyes. She wears a dark top cut off just below her breasts with her designation Punk-06 written on the front. She also wears a light-colored jacket over her top, a pair of bikini bottoms, dark gloves, large dark boots that go up past her knees, and a pair of goggles on her forehead.
Abilities[]
As her original purpose was to eat and sleep so the other Satellites could function without doing so, York can consume far more food than even someone of her size should be able to, and metabolize it far faster than is possible for most. As such, she attains a BMI of 600 (20 times the amount considered obese) multiple times every day by eating, but loses it all quickly afterwards, the odd shifts in mass not seemingly affecting her negatively at all.
Like Vegapunk and the other Satellites, she can access the vast knowledge contained within his brain and has the same level of genius, though while capable of clever planning and strategy, most of the time she is too lazy to make as much use of it than the others.
Personality[]
Being designated the “greed” satellite of Vegapunk, York is a very gluttonous and lazy individual. Her primary task seems to be to eat, sleep, and relieve herself for the other satellites so they can perform their own duties unimpeded. Perhaps because compassion constitutes "effort," she is devoid of empathy. She seems to have a vapid personality with her head in the clouds, rarely speaking except to yawn or remark about sleeping or eating, but wantonly approached a dangerous Seraphim because she found it cute.
For this very reason however, York is a highly selfish and delusional individual who possesses lofty ambitions, willing to betray her fellow satellites, solely for the chance to become a Celestial Dragon. She also believes that only one Vegapunk is necessary in the world and is not against eliminating her peers if needed. Her pathetic efforts would be ruined, however, as a result of her overconfidence and underestimation of the Straw Hat Pirates (the new Emperor crew) and CP0 (the Strongest Cipher Pol agency) when she is no match for the pirates and Cipher Pol agents due to being way over her head thinking she could overthrow the new Emperor (who took down Kaido), allowed her to be captured and detained by them, thus foiling her feeble plans and delusions.
Despite of her defeat and capture at the hands of both the Straw Hats and CP0, York became an even more deluded lowlife than before as she believed if she is harmed at any ways, the Five Elders will destroy Egghead as they did to Ohara which is nothing more than an insult to Nico Robin's past when York earned Nami's wrath by smacking her at the head with her Sorcery Clima-Tact staff while the Navigator doesn't care about York's delusional beliefs and insolence. Due to her being extremely deluded, she continues to underestimate her enemies when believing they will never rehack the password of the barrier she installed but when they managed to rehacked the password, she shown disbelief and cursed Vegapunk it was due to her password to be so weak, pathetic and mostly illogical.
Having Vegapunk's intelligence made her so arrogant that she was delusional, since nobody in history had ever been elevated to being Celestial Dragon, with only people born in noble families considered being one of them; and yet her arrogance and delusions of grandeur made her genuinely believe that she would be the exception to centuries of elitism.
After being freed by Marcus Mars, York is still a sore loser when she wants revenge on the Straw Hat Pirates and her fellow satellites for humiliating her. York is also dumb when she was unable to search the Broadcast Den Den Mushi to stop the broadcast which is too late. She is also a fool when she didn't realized Vegapunk knew she given a stolen portion of the Mother Flame to the World Government in order to powering up the Ancient Weapon. She thinks Vegapunk hidden the Broadcast Den Den Mushi inside the Iron Giant (a robot that was created to destroy the Celestial Dragons). Initially, she was relieved but later she is angry when the broadcast is still running due to the Den Den Mushi's circuits still intacted.
