Profile
A young giant of Elbaf, introduced by name-card “Child of Elbaph: Collun” (Ch. 1132 p.2). Excitedly heralds the returning Giant (Warrior) Pirates and the longship Erik, runs to tell the captains the village will deliver snacks for the welcome feast, and is awed that the guest is “Straw Hat Luffy,” a new Emperor (pp. 2–3).
Arc-by-arc updates
- A wailing giant mother cries “COLLUUUN!!!” as her child is carried off in the ZaZa abduction (p. 13).
Elbaf (Ch. 1182) — named amid the flood
- “COLLUN!! YLVA!!” is screamed as ZaZa’s flood sweeps giant children through the pub (p. 13). Separately, a horned-helmeted giant child out on a route wonders “Uh-oh… something’s going on at the village!! Should I turn around?!” (p. 15) — design consistent with Collun, unnamed in-panel. (Do not double-count; hold IDs.)

- Demands to fight (“I’m a warrior too!”), pressing his claim “But I’m the son of Gaban!!”; an elder rebukes “Exactly! You’re NOT Gaban!!” (p. 6) — establishing that Collun’s father is (or is claimed to be) a warrior named Gaban (revealed elsewhere as Scopper Gaban “Mr. Ya”). Ordered to safety, he instead rallies the other children into the play-crew the “Collun Pirates,” declaring himself captain (“Man the oars, Collun Pirates!!”), rowing off (p. 8).

Elbaf — revealed as the son of Gaban & Ripley (Ch. 1139) — referenced
- Confirmed as the half-human/half-giant son of the human ex-Roger-Pirate Scopper Gaban (“Mr. Ya”) and the giantess Ripley — Luffy’s “giant shrimp.” Gaban: “he’s 20… he took on a lot of giant’s blood… grew up without me bein’ able to hold him in my arms.” (p. 7.) A living example of the “blended peoples” Gaban describes (see Mixed-Blood Races, Gaban).
Elbaf — the wild child attacks Luffy and is flattened (Ch. 1135)
- “The wild child,” jeered by the other (gentle, well-mannered) Elbaf children. Sneak-attacks Luffy with a giant mallet and is knocked flat by Gum-Gum Gear Three: Elephant Gun; afterward admires Luffy’s nerve as “an Emperor of the Sea.” Scolded by the giantess Ripley (“There you go causing trouble again, Collun!!”). (pp. 5–7)

Elbaf — the village child heralds the returning Giant Pirates (Ch. 1132)
- First appearance. Name-card “Child of Elbaph: Collun” (p.2). The giant child cheers the returning Giant Pirates and the longship Great Erik (“The Giant Pirates have returned!! It’s the Great Erik!!”), runs to tell captains Dorry & Brogy the village will deliver feast snacks, and marvels that the guest is the new Emperor “Straw Hat Luffy” (pp. 2–3).
Notes
- Etymology: コロン Koron (VIZ “Collun”; One Piece Wiki “Colon”). Most likely a goroawase number-name — ko (5) + ro (6) = “56”, the same digit-pair as Luffy’s signature 56 (go-mu, “rubber” / Gomu-Gomu) — reinforcing Collun as a deliberate young-Luffy mirror (a giant child awed by the new Emperor). Character design is based on the Norse boy-hero of Vicke Viking / “Vicky the Viking,” consistent with Elbaf’s Viking-Age / Norse coding. Confidence: medium (the One Piece Wiki itself hedges the goroawase reading). Source: One Piece Wiki “Colon” (Trivia).
