About: Leader of the Jellyfish Pirates. He is a master of the Hirofumi Style of swordsmanship. He's very widely known in the world he lives, and his reputation as a womanizer precedes him. He rescues children orphaned from war (women only) and brings them aboard his ship. He’s a world-class outlaw, but lives by the mantra, "Help the weak and sprain the strong," which has made him popular among the masses.
Outline: After a Gear murdered Johnny's father before his eyes he was completely alone. He longed to be as beloved as his father had been, and decided that piracy was how he would reach that goal. Since then he has traveled the world to find and protect other orphaned children — people like April and May. By and large, the members of his crew see him as a father figure... although some hope for something more intimate.
The Jellyfish Pirates have few compunctions about breaking the law, and in fact they regularly do so in the name of protecting those the law cannot. Despite being outlaws, however, they have a vast network of friends and acquaintances which includes First King Ky Kiske and Zepp President Gabriel. There is a little-known, unspoken rule among the Jellyfish pirates: No men allowed... except for Johnny, of course.
In the Cradle Incident, he tried to uncover the secrets of the so-called "disease" of the Japanese people, without letting May know what he was up to. During his investigation, he encounters the famed doctor, Faust. Dr. Faust manages to successfully reverse May's symptoms. Johnny is still working hard to help cure more victims of this symptom.
Personality: Johnny is an easy-going guy who's always ready to kick back, but when the going gets tough he's undoubtedly the man for the job. No matter how grim the situation he never loses his cool, and is often there to break the tension with a clever joke. He loves the members of the Jellyfish Pirates like his own family, and has often told them he puts their safety before his own life.
