Tank Lepanto is a supporting character in the anime and manga series *One Piece*, first appearing in the Dressrosa Arc. He is the commander of the Dressrosa Self-Defense Army, a large, muscular man with disproportionately short legs.

Tank is a loyalist to the Riku Family and struggled under Donquixote Doflamingo's rule. He entered the Corrida Colosseum to compete for the Mera Mera no Mi, allying with Dagama and Elizabello to gain an advantage. Despite his desire for victory, he prefers following orders and receiving compensation. He is deeply loyal to the former King Riku Doldo III, remaining faithful even when Doflamingo controlled the King. Tank uses a spiked ball and chain as his weapon and has demonstrated significant strength and combat ability. He also watched over Princess Viola under Doflamingo's rule.
