History[]
Background[]
King Riku received word of a troubled delinquent named Kyros, who he went to meet with only to be struck with a club but he calmly stopped his men from arrest him. However, the king offered a way for Kyros to serve his sentence without being imprisoned. He had Kyros participate in the gladiator games, where he easily excelled but over time lamented that he was known for spilling blood. When visiting his friend's grave, he tearfully wished everyone would forget, something that ironically came true.
Soon Riku was trained by Kyros and he entered the Colosseum under an alias. Kyros recognized him and Riku gave him a scar on his head while he was caught off-guard. Kyros soon regained his wits and defeated Doldo. Once Kyros questioned his motives, the king told him it was time he leave the Colosseum and really be great.
Sometime later, he made Kyros his army commander, with the people coming to respect him. Unfortunately, Riku's eldest daughter Scarlett was not too welcoming and told him to stay away from her and her sister, despite him being assigned to protecting her. When she was kidnapped by pirates, he saved her and she was surprised he did so in spite of her treatment. From that point, Scarlett fell in love with him and soon he felt the same. Scarlett faked her death, allowing her and Kyros to get married.
They had a daughter named Rebecca and lived in a house far from the kingdom. Doldo and his family would meet with them on occasion, with him treasuring his granddaughter, though he and the rest of his family often regarded Kyros as weird when he believed she would be sullied by his touch.

When Sugar's curse broke, Doldo watched as Doflamingo was enraged by his true nature being revealed. In the mean time, Thunder Soldier transformed back into Kyros and Doldo regained his memories of his son-in-law and broke into tears of sadness at not recalling him before. He then witnessed Kyros storm in and attacked Doflamingo, before calling out to him and they shared a tearful reunion before Kyros decapitated Doflamingo, to Doldo's shock. After Kyros proceeded to defeat Buffalo and the foot soldiers, he freed Riku.

Riku and his people then received word, Kyros defeated Diamante while he reflected when he got word of his daughter's death by the latter's hand and was pleased his son-in-law got revenge.
Very soon, the group were then confronted by Pica in his giant stone statue form. Pica mocked the former king and told him that if he had been more decisive then he wouldn't have lost the throne. Riku agreed and said if he were to live, then he would not return to the throne before Pica moved to crush them. However, he was promptly cut down by Zoro and Riku was in awe at how he took down the Donquixote executive.
