Profile
A pirate gang captained by “Lola the Proposer”, named on-page for the first time in Ch. 475 (p. 19). At least two members — the Risky Brothers — are present on Thriller Bark, where the crew is among Gecko Moria’s shadow-theft victims. They seek out Luffy to give him “tremendous power” and reveal “the secret behind Moria’s powers,” wanting him to defeat Moria.
The captain is pinned to Lola — the LIVING Rolling-Pirates captain, distinct from Lola the Zombie (the reanimated warthog corpse animated by her stolen shadow).

Notable events
- Ch. 475 — first named on-page; the Risky Brothers reveal their Rolling-Pirates allegiance and intercept Luffy with an offer of power + “the secret behind Moria’s powers” (p. 19).
- Ch. 476 — first proper on-page appearance. Captain Lola “the Proposer” makes her bio-box debut (p. 2). The crew explain Moria’s shadow-war state + the dawn deadline to Luffy, reveal their bare-handed shadow-harvest (they feed zombies salt to eject the shadow, then catch it and “purify” the corpse, pp. 4-6), and pool their stockpile of 100 captured shadows into Luffy to create “Nightmare Luffy,” betting on him to beat Moria before sunrise (pp. 6-7). (Earlier reader notes proposed a placeholder “Thriller Bark Victim’s Association” — this is the canonical crew that fills that role.)
- Ch. 481 — at the dawn deadline, Captain Lola and the crew refuse to flee the sun and bet everything on Luffy against the now-giant Moria: “This is what it means to put your hopes… on the shoulders of others!!” (pp. 17-18).
- Ch. 482 — the shadows return. Captain Lola refuses to flee the dawn (“Live or die, I don’t care anymore!!”) and reveals she searched three years for the zombie holding her own shadow; the crew and freed victims call their shadows home by name as Luffy ruptures the over-stuffed Moria, freeing every stolen shadow at once at daybreak (pp. 3, 15-19).
- Ch. 489 — departure; New-World origin revealed. As both crews leave Thriller Bark, the Rolling Pirates receive Brook’s repaired ghost ship from Franky (rudder + sail), and state they came from the New World and passed Fish-Man Island three years ago (pp. 17-18). Captain Lola gifts Nami her mother’s Vivre Card and explains the Life Paper mechanic (pp. 18-19). See Lola’s Mother, Lola’s Mother Is A Powerful New World Pirate Vivre-Card Seed.
