Their names are Monique and Cortez Roberts. As a little boy, Malik has always been interested in becoming a pirate. His mother would tell him stories of the adventures she and his father had in the afternoon and at night as bedtime stories. He has a younger brother and younger sister, who are also aspired to go out at sea someday. However, they still have much to learn and are still too young. As an infant, Malik was often curious. When he could crawl, he would try to wonder off in the new house his parents had settled in. Before he wondered off too far, Monique would pick him up and try to satisfy his curiosity.

Cortez would love to stay with his family more, but unfortunately, he had to leave the island. This is when Malik was only 5 years old. His sister was too young to remember him. Cortez was a member of the revolutionary and so, was his duty to help in the rebellion. He promised his wife he will come back after 5 years have passed. By then, the kids will be much older. Before leaving, he apologizes to Monique for not being able to be with his kids during this time and seeing them grow. Thankfully, she was very forgiving and understood how difficult it was being a revolutionary.

Growing up on an island of fighters, Malik found himself interested in martial arts. He sat and watched as the many combatants engaged in battle. He was finding himself enjoying the thrill of battle. After witnessing many battles on Karate Island, the boy decides he wants to learn how to fight as well. Way before he gained this fascination in battle, he looked out towards the sea, wanting to set sail.

When he reached the age of 6, he went to ask his mother on learn martial arts. She agreed to train Malik now, but only the basics such as stances and how to launch punches and kicks. Though, he mostly uses his feet, which lead to him learning a fighting style for suitable for his strong legs. This continued for months and he was advancing quickly in the basics of his training. Already he knew the stances and how to launch a punches and kicks. Years have passed and Malik was becoming more skilled in martial arts. His dream, courage, determination, and confidence helped as well. At the age of 10, his father had come back to see how much his children have grown.

Upon his father arriving at the island, Malik decided to show him what he has learned in the last 4 years. he was quite impressed. He didn't expect his wife to teach him martial arts, but he should have known the boy was going to grow up a fighter, especially since he was born into a family such as theirs. As to truly test his son's prowess by his standards, Cortez decides to arrange a battle for Malik. He was determine to show his father how much his has grown. The opponent was a random fighter, 5 years older than him. When the confrontation started, he was able to dodge and block some of the fighter's attacks. He still took hits, but brushed it off as he can endure a large amount of damage. He countered the fighter with what he has learned, landing punches, kicks, elbow strikes, and knee strikes. With a final spin kick, the fighter was down, no longer having the energy to rise once more. Monique and Cortez were proud of their son winning his first battle ever. After the match, Malik and his parents were kind enough to help the teenaged fighter and his parents to a medic to recover. He complemented the boy on his "sweet" moves, giving him a smile.

At the age of 10, Malik has found a dream of his when sailing out to sea one day and becoming a pirate. It is to be a great hero and defend the innocent from evil. Two of his many goals are to liberate much of the world from the tyranny of the World Government and become a Supernova. When he told his father of wanting to be a pirate, the man decides to have a talk with him. He said he could be a pirate he was older. Being a pirate was the start of his dream of becoming a hero. On a certain day, which was before he decided to set to sea, the boy came across a Devil Fruit on his island. Both his mother and father were there to witness what their son had found. He was out on the coast practicing his techniques. His mother and father were both watching. It was basically training to refresh on his combative skills. If he was going to set sail out to sea, he was going to need to be strong. After all, it was is dream to become a hero. When he finished, his father was happily content with the progress Malik is making. The boy then, spotted a odd-looking fruit sitting close to the shore. Malik expected it to have washed up on shore. He went to go pick it up and then, walked back over to his parents. They instantly recognized it as a Devil Fruit, telling there son so. He was excited and asked, if he could eat it. His father told him he could, but warned him he will lose his ability to swim for the rest of his life. This was the common weakness among all Devil Fruit Users. However, the incredible powers they might acquire provide more than enough compensation.

Malik considered what he will lose in exchanged for the possibility of a unique power as the little boy stood there, thinking over what he might gain. He had decided to take a bite of the fruit, which tasted disgusting. His expression indicated it as he swallowed it. His parents watched with anticipation as their son swallowed the piece of the fruit. His mother was nervous as to what ability he got. If it turned out to be useless and hindered him as well, he would have lost his ability to swim for nothing. His father suggested to try and fire something out of his hand or see what would be affected as a result. Malik did as he said and to to the shore. He held out his right hand and concentrated. To the family's surprise, ice covered his palm. The fruit, which he ate gave him the power of ice. Malik was excited to have such an amazing power. It was decided that he was going to train himself to better master these abilities. For the next 6 years, he practiced on shooting ice shards from his hands, creating weapons, freezing objects, and any other abilities he had received. With the ability to control a natural element of nature, this meant that he was a Logia-type Devil Fruit user as indicated by his father.

For the first few weeks, both his parents often came to the coast to see their son train. Every visit, they see he was getting better at utilizing his powers. He even learned some new abilities and created some new moves. With his father's knowledge on certain Devil Fruits, he informed Malik of his own fruit's name, the Hie Hie no Mi. Unfortunately, Cortez had to leave on Revolutionary business. He doesn't know how long it will be when he comes back for a visit, but he can tell it will be longer than 4 years. Malik was sadden by this, but knows what his father is doing is important for the world. He along with his mother, brother, and sister each gave him a hug goodbye. 6 years since his first battle, eating the Hie He no Mi, and the departure of his father, Malik was now 16. Through these years, he has advanced further into his martial arts training as well as learned how to utilize his Devil Fruit powers better. His father has also decided to return to his family after this certain, long period of time. Upon the man's arrival, a group family hug was initiated. They quickly took time to catchup with him.

Now that Malik is 16, he asked his parents that he's ready to set sail and become a pirate. Monique was a little worried for her son as well as Cortez. He might have been a trained fighter, but there are still unknown dangers out in the world. Cortez asked his son was he really ready to set sail and become a pirate. He gave a confident and resounding "Yes". He was very determined to become one. His father gave a smile and gave his son a hug before leaving to continue his duties as a revolutionary. Malik returned the hug and Monique also joined in. It turned into a group hug. After that, Malik went to his room and packed his stuff into a backpack. He then, exited his home and waved to his mother and father as they waved back with smiles of pride. This was the start of his journey.

[attr="class","ability"]

• ▶ Karate - In his years living on Karate Island, Malik was taught martial arts by his mother. Malik's fighting style focuses on the use of his legs slightly more than his hands. He prefers to fight this way, thinking it provides more versatility. He still uses his hands to punch his enemies. He just uses his legs more often. While in battle, Malik remains alert against an enemy. He tried to be prepared for whatever attack comes his way. When persisting with the first move, he follows up with a punch, kick, or an attack applying his abilities. However, if there is an attack he knows he can't block, he will try evasion. He may also counterattack when he finds an opening from his enemy. When it comes down to it, protecting those he cares for matters the most.
