The leader of his own pirate fleet that made Luffy want to become a pirate. He sacrificed his left arm to the Master of the Near Seas to save the 7-year-old Luffy, and before leaving, also entrusted the boy with his straw hat which later becomes Luffy's trademark.

 -- spoiler from vol.11 -- 

He is still alive and well; and from the looks of things (by the way how he talks on par with Mihawk) we can assume that he is a pirate of a very high caliber; perhaps he is actually one of the Seven Armed Seas...?
