Speedwagon that is later betrayed by Straizo. Santana is discovered in a Mexican pyramid in 1938 by an expedition team led by Robert E. While much younger and not as experienced, Santana has demonstrated several techniques similar to ones used by those in Kars's group, as well as some of his own. AbilitiesĪs a Pillar Man, Santana is capable of performing the most basic abilities of one. Even when exposed to sunlight, Santana is unconcerned and enters Stroheim's body as a shield against it. Nonetheless, Santana lets Joseph attack him so he could learn how the technique works.
After witnessing Joseph's Ripple, Santana inquires as to whether humans have evolved or if Joseph is just special. However, when Joseph's probing begins to annoy him, Santana loses his composure and instantly attempts to kill him. He initially ignores Joseph's introduction and shows disinterest, taking the time to examine his surroundings instead. After being awoken, he brutally kills nearby Nazis for disturbing his sleep. But Joseph allowed the Pillar Man to get the drop on him so he can be exposed the reflection of the noon sun, turning Santana back into stone.Like the other Pillar Men in Kars's group, Santana is vicious and detached toward humans. Joseph was touched by the German's noble act before a furious Santana lunges at him while they fall into the well. Stroheim tells Joseph of the other Pillar Men his people discovered in Rome, asking him to find a way to defeat them before triggering the explosion to kill himself and leave Santana exposed. However, Santana enters Stroheim's body through his wound with the Nazi keeping himself from being moved towards a well as he takes out a grenade.
Joseph succeeds with Stroheim's help after being forced to chop his leg off. īinding Santana's torso in chains as his body begins to reassemble, Joseph tries to drag up the bunker and expose him to sunlight. Santana physically overwhelms Joseph and absorbs him once knocking the wind out of the human, only to realized too late that Joseph was holding his breath to lull the Pillar Man into a false sense of security to blow him up with a surge of Ripple. This infuriates Joseph, finding his Ripple-infused punch to have no effect despite Speedwagon assuring him that his energy is protecting him from being absorbed. Confused when Joseph's Ripple prevented him from absorbing the human, he decides to consume Speedwagon to see if he would get a similar response. Though Santana ignored the "primitive" Joseph to suit his curiosity of the Germans' weapons, he eventually gets annoyed and tries to kill the human. Joseph then tries to be friendly with Santana to the bafflement of Speedwagon and Stroheim, the latter getting into an argument with Joseph over if Santana is truly evil or if he only killed the Nazis in just defense.
