Origin
Riku Doldo III was once the king of Dressrosa in the Grand Line. When Don Quixote Doflamingo returned to reclaim the land his family once ruled centuries ago, he overthrew Riku and hunted down all the members of his family. After many decades in hiding and thought long dead, Riku returned by entering the tournament for the Flame-Flame devil fruit at Corrida Colosseum, but he was in disguise and fighting under the name Ricky (????, Rikk?).
