Arthur Peregrine, known as Arthur Percival (アーサー・パーシヴァル, Āsā Pāshivuaru) in Japan, is the main antagonist in the anime/manga series, Beyblade Burst Rise. He fights with his Beyblade Prime Apocalypse 0Dagger Ultimate Reboot'. He refers himself as the King of Hell (ヘルの王, Heru No Ō) and the Beyblade King (ベイブレードの王, Beiburēdo No Ō).

Appearance

Arthur is a tall, built man with tan skin, medium-length prussian-blue hair that cover his green hair on the other side with green highlights at the end, turquoise eyes, and red and yellow paint marks on his face. His attire consists of a full black-olive bodysuit with blue and yellow wavy markings, white wraps around his wrists and neck, reddish feathers on the right collar of his bodysuit, a cerulean kilt with dark-red borders connected to cyan dots and held by a white belt, and dark-indigo boots with lavender cuffs and dark-green lines. His color scheme is similar to that of a blue-and-yellow macaw parrot.

Personality

Arthur is a very rebellious blader; trying to end the WBBA by destroying it's ideals, desiring to take over the Beyblade world by inviting bladers to Inferno, and even has on two occasions shown no respect for rules or etiquette as he barged into the stadium and interrupted the Bladers’ battles in order to showcase his power to everyone.

His arrogance makes him unafraid to express his thoughts, claiming to be the Beyblade King. He is also unwilling to accept his losses, as he ordered a tag battle with the Victories purely out of spite after losing to Dante Koryu and Delta Zakuro, even blaming Gwyn that his Apocalypse even though he often relied on him in battle.

Arthur is very authoritative, stating that the weak have no right to Beyblade and decreeing that all Bladers must follow his rule and did. He does not tolerate failure on his team, as he scolded Gwyn for losing against Dante.

After his final defeat, he fell to his knees, disappointed that his goal of taking over the WBBA failed.

Beyblades

• Prime Apocalypse 0Dagger Ultimate Reboot': Arthur's primary Beyblade in Beyblade Burst Rise. In episode 21, he later equips it with the Bigbang Armor after receiving it from Gwyn Reynolds.

Special Moves

• Dark-Flux: Prime Apocalypse surrounds itself in a dark crimson and black aura, and is able to consume an opponent's Hyper-Flux.
• Omega Blast: Prime Apocalypse uses the protruding blade on its layer to deal a devastating attack on the opposing bey, causing it to burst and resulting in a massive explosion. In the anime, the impact was shown to be powerful enough to destroy Beystadiums. This move is similar to Xander Shakadera's Saber Strike.
• Final Blaster: A stronger version of Omega Blast in which Apocalypse channels more power into the point on its layer to deal a more devastating blow.
• Prime Reboot: The semi-flat tip on Apocalypse's Ultimate Reboot' driver retracts and the rubber becomes exposed, resulting in a boost that grants Apocalypse more speed and power as it charges into its opponent like Valt Aoi's Genesis Reboot and Ultimate Genesis Reboot.
• Eclipse Whip: Apocalypse uses the two blades of the Bigbang Armor to burst an opponent.
