Pirate Man

Pirate Man (パイレーツマン) is a Robot Master from King's army with the appearance of a pirate captain. He was created to attack cargo vessels at sea. He is fearless and ruthless and will do whatever it takes to reach his goal. He loves making profit and despises doing anything fairly. It's believed he was the one responsible for many attacks to ships that occurred during King's rebellion. Pirate Man and Dive Man don't get along, as they have opposite principles regarding the sea.

Pirate Man's stage is one of the two stages unlocked by defeating Cold Man. His stage is located at the bottom of the ocean and he battles underwater in the room containing his treasure hoard. Pirate Man's main weapon is Remote Mine, a remote controlled bomb that he usually fires three times in a row. He can also attack by rolling inside of a giant bubble while underwater and bounce around the room, using his arm to fill the room with water when the water level is to low to use his bubble attack. If he's hit by Wave Burner while using his bubble attack, the bubble will burst and Pirate Man will hit his head on the floor.
