Tonpetty

Tonpeti is a minor, fictional character appearing in the Japanese manga JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, by Hirohiko Araki. The character is portrayed as an ally of the protagonist.

=Character= Tonpeti is a hamon or "ripple" master who gave training to William Antonio Zeppeli, as well as many others. Tonpeti trained the then 25 year old Zeppeli in the ways of ripple and eventually revealed to him that he would face a gruesome death. Nevertheless, Zeppeli continued with his training. The only other known ripple students of Tonpeti were Dire and Straights, who both accompanied him when they went to Dio's town. However, they did not meet with Jonathan Joestar and Robert Edward O Speedwagon until Zeppeli had died.

During the final battle between Jonathan and Dio, Dire was killed but Tonpeti and Straights still helped kill Dio's remaining zombies. After the battle, Tonpeti was last seen at the docks (together with Straights, Speedwagon, and others) to say farewell to Jonathan and Erina Pendleton/Joestar while they went on their honeymoon. Tonpeti's whereabouts after this is unknown, but it can be assumed the he died during the 50-year gap between parts 1 and 2. Straights became his successor.
