It is useless to beg for mercy!
~ Pirate Man

Background

Pirate Man is a Robot Master from Mega Man & Bass whose appearance is that of a pirate captain. Serving as a loyal member of King's robot army, he was created and assigned to attack cargo vessels at sea. It's believed he was the one responsible for many of the attacks on ships that occurred during King's rebellion against humanity. Pirate Man and Dive Man don't get along very well, as they espouse opposing principles regarding the sea; Pirate Man is unscrupulous, while Dive Man is more honorable.

Pirate Man's stage is one of the two stages unlocked by defeating Cold Man (the other stage being Burner Man's). His stage is located at the bottom of the ocean and he fights underwater in a room containing his treasure hoard. Pirate Man's Special Weapon is Remote Mine, a remote controlled bomb that he usually fires three times in a row. He can also attack by encasing himself in a giant bubble and bouncing around the room; this attack can only be used when the water level is high enough, and he'll use his arm to refill the room when the water level gets too low to use his bubble attack. If he is hit by his weakness, Burner Man's Wave Burner while using his bubble attack, the bubble will burst and Pirate Man will fall to the floor in a comical manner.

Befitting his overall status as a pirate captain, Pirate Man is fearless and ruthless with a cruel, unforgiving personality, and he will do whatever it takes to reach his goal. He loves making money, and he dislikes the concept of fairness.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Pirate Man’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

The room is flooded, so the player can use the game's water physics effectively here (Mega Man and Bass can jump higher while in the water, making it easy to evade attacks), though the water will slowly descend as the battle goes on. Pirate Man will start off the battle by firing Remote Mines or encasing himself in a bubble to bounce around the room. The mines follow the player before stopping and exploding, leaving behind a long-lasting blast radius. He will continue doing these two moves until the water gets low enough, after which Pirate Man will raise the water level. Pirate Man's weakness, the Wave Burner, is useful as it can interrupt his bubble attack, though it does more damage if used outside of the water.

Trivia

  • Pirate Man is the only water-themed Robot Master who is weak to a fire weapon. This may be because he is explosive-themed as well, or because the weapon functions differently underwater (creating a whirlpool rather than a stream of fire).
  • Pirate Man has a human mouth for his Rockman & Forte manga appearance.
  • Pirate Man is the only Robot Master from the KGN series who didn't have his name changed from his early design sketches featured in R20 Rockman & Rockman X Official Complete Works book.
  • In his official art and CD art, Pirate Man has his eye patch on his right eye, but in his mugshot, it's on his left.
  • A sketch resembling Pirate Man appears during the closing credits of Mega Man 8.

    A. Well… Actually, Rockman’s body is powered by “Solar Energy.” Therefore, he doesn’t really eat, but there are some things that are okay for his consumption… Around the lab, he enjoys drinking “Energy Juice.” As responsibly as he behaves, he’s still a kid after all.
  2. Q. The shots that the Rockbuster fires from the hand, what are those exactly?
    A. The Rockbuster on the arm fires something called a “Solar Bullet”, essentially emitting a compressed form of solar energy that’s very powerful.

  5. Q. Do robots like those made by Dr. Wily or Dr. Cossack have self-awareness, and can they talk? And do they run on solar energy like Rockman does?
    A. I take it you’d like to know if Wily and Cossack’s robots possess “sentience”? Naturally, they each have a “consciousness”, although the level of every “cognitive circuit” embedded inside each one of them varies, producing as many different “personality” types as found in people… Just like you or I, they can speak, and have emotional responses like shyness, or anger, just as we do.
    Regarding their energy systems, many of them do utilize “solar energy” in some way.

    –However, each planet met with an unexpected incident. The robots who were mining the energy elements suddenly began going berserk!! Upon learning of this from Dr. Right, “ROCKMAN” immediately set out on a path for the uncharted planets–a new battle was about to begin!!

  67. By swapping out the program data of all the robots Dr. Wily has constructed, this robot is able to adapt other robots’ moves as its own. With the powers of all robots combined into one, this is truly one dreadful robot.
  68. This all-purpose robot can take on the same abilities of every other robot merely by switching its program data. Still, if it just copies the powers of robots that Rockman has already been able to defeat, one might expect for Rockman to overcome them again…
