Profile

Koala — a young human girl the Sun Pirates freed from Celestial Dragon slavery at Marijoa. Traumatized into compulsive servility (“you gotta break yourself of working when you get nervous!”), she is healed by the crew’s kindness and returned to her hometown Foolshout Island on the Grand Line, vowing to tell her village “lots of fish-men are good people.” Fisher Tiger frames her — “youngsters like Koala who know nothing of the past” — as the hope that could break the human/fish-man hatred cycle. Unknown to the crew, her rescue was the bait Foolshout’s people used to set the Navy ambush that mortally wounds Tiger.

Reverie aftermath (Ch. 956)

Reverie — at Kamabakka Queendom (Ch. 905) — SHOWN

  • At Kamabakka Queendom, asked by Betty whether she feels conflicted fighting the World Government for the fish-men’s sake while Ryugu attends the Reverie. Koala: “It’s the Celestial Dragons who control it. Our true foe isn’t actually the World Government” (p. 16). See Revolutionary Army.

Four Emperors saga — Baltigo (Ch. 803) — SHOWN

  • At Baltigo with Dragon; reports the Dressrosa operation a “resounding success,” that lost comrades were regained, and that the Sabaody-capture report on Robin was a “total fabrication” (pp. 6-7).

Dressrosa aftermath — flashback: nurses the feverish Sabo (Ch. 794) — flashback; SHOWN

  • In Sabo’s memory-return flashback (~2 years prior), frantic at the bedside of the fevered, memory-flooded Sabo — “Waaah!! I thod you were godda die, Zaboo!!” / “Did your bebory come bagk?!” (pp. 8, 10). Shows the Revolutionary Army raised Sabo as one of their own.

Dressrosa — Revolutionary op (Ch. 792)

  • On the transponder snail with Sabo: chastises him for hanging up; confirms she “found the list” and that the team is assembled, waiting to meet Hack underground (pp. 7-8).

Dressrosa — radios Sabo for help (Ch. 786)

  • At the spent Luffy’s side as Burgess attacks; uses a Den Den Mushi to call Sabo — “Hello, Sabo?! Come in!! Do you read me?!” (p. 8). (Corrects an 0786-read misidentification: the p. 8 caller is Koala, NOT Cavendish.)

Dressrosa — pleads with Sabo over Den Den Mushi (Ch. 760)

  • Contacts Sabo by Den Den Mushi, frantic that he’s about to drag the Revolutionaries into a war and reminding him “you have a position!” — she’s the one who “always gets chewed out for your misadventures” (pp. 2–3).

Dressrosa — reunites with Robin at the trading port (Ch. 745)

Dressrosa — with the Revolutionary Army at the Colosseum (Ch. 744) — unnamed; inference

  • Appears alongside the mysterious Revolutionary (vault-identity Sabo), captioned “Revolutionary Army Assistant Fish-Man Karate Master KOALA” (p. 18); gathering intel on the underground (“Let me know when we have details about the underground”) and noting “Sounds like Robin’s here in this country.” First present-day, on-page confirmation of her Revolutionary Army role.

Fish-Man Island flashback — first appearance (Ch. 623)

Post-Reverie (Ch. 1058)

  • At Kamabakka HQ; reassures the RA “Sabo is just fine,” and answers the traced snail call — “Hello? Koala speaking!” (p.16–17)

Notes

  • Etymology: コアラ = the koala; named after the marsupial she resembles (One Piece Wiki external-links/trivia). Surface-level animal naming, no plot pun. Confidence: high.
