'''Davy Jones''' is a cursed pirate introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', and originally taken from Disney's ''{{w|Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest}}''.
'''Davy Jones''' is a cursed pirate who appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''. He made his onscreen debut in Disney's 2006 film, ''{{w|Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest}}''.

===Before ''Kingdom Hearts II''===
===Before ''Kingdom Hearts II''===
Unable to bear the pain having a [[heart]] gave him, Davy Jones cut out his literal heart; for some reason, removing the organ also removed his metaphysical heart as well. He locked it away in a black box for safety: if anyone destroyed it, his curse would transfer to them and make them the new captain of the ''Flying Dutchman''.
Davy Jones raises the ''Black Pearl'' from the depths for [[Jack Sparrow]]. In exchange for the pirate's soul, Jones allows Sparrow to captain the ship for thirteen years.  
 
Davy Jones raises the ''[[Black Pearl]]'' from the depths for [[Jack Sparrow]]. In exchange for the pirate's [[soul]], Jones allows Sparrow to captain the ship for thirteen years. Three years shortly afterwards, [[Hector Barbossa]] mutinied and stole the ''Pearl'', causing Jack to believe his deal with Jones was on hold due to a technicality; since he wasn't captain of the ''Pearl'' for a decade of [[Port Royal|their world]]'s time, it meant Jack didn't truly get his part of the bargain.

Furious that Jack Sparrow did not honor their agreement, Jones sends the [[Kraken]] to dispose of him. Jones soon finds himself under [[Cutler Beckett]]'s command when his [[heart]] comes into the man's possession.
Furious Jack Sparrow did not honor their agreement, Davy Jones sends the Kraken to dispose of him. Jones soon finds himself under [[Cutler Beckett]]'s command when his heart comes into the man's possession.


On a small island, Beckett has Jones and [[William Turner]] by his side. The three of them meet with Jack, [[Elizabeth Swann]], and [[Hector Barbossa]]. Jones still does not consider Jack's debt to be paid and tries to force Jack to become his slave for a hundred years on the ''Dutchman''. Elizabeth persuades them to exchange Will's slavery for Jack's.
Davy Jones aids Cutler Beckett in a final attempt to destroy Jack Sparrow and the ''Black Pearl''. This pits him against [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck]], and [[Goofy]]. Jones mortally wounds [[William Turner]], but Jack saves the young man by making him stab Jones's heart, killing him. However, by killing Jones, Will's heart is placed in the Dead Man's Chest and is now bound to become captain of the Flying Dutchman, doomed to set foot on land only once every ten years.


Jones aids Cutler Beckett in a final attempt to destroy Jack and the ''Black Pearl''. While aboard the ''Flying Dutchman'', he spots Jack attempting to escape with the chest at hand. Jones tries to seize the chest, but is pitted against Jack, along with [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck]], and [[Goofy]]. Eventually, Jones solely engages Jack in an intense sword fight atop the mast of the ''Dutchman'', with Jones breaking Jack's sword. On the deck, Jones continues his duel with Jack, knocking him to the ground and attempts to reclaim the chest, only being stopped by Elizabeth.
==Personality==
 
A self-proclaimed "heartless wretch," Davy Jones sees love as a dreadful bond easily severed.  
Overpowering Elizabeth, Jones prepares to kill her before being impaled through the back by Will. Undaunted, Jones kicks him aside and looks both him and Elizabeth, realizing their relationship. Jones mocks them, stating how dreadful and fragile love is, though Sora rebuffs him, saying that love forms a strong bond that not even he can break. Jones scoffs at him before holding Will at sword-point, asking if he fears death. He is then interrupted by Jack as he holds the open chest to his heart and a broken sword in the other hand, taunting him in a desperate bid to save Will.

Before Jack can stab the heart, Jones mortally wounds Will's chest, leaving Jack visibly shocked and Elizabeth distraught. Enraged, Sora, Donald, and Goofy jump on Jones and briefly overpower him, but he quickly shakes them off. As he prepares to kill the boy, Jack helps Will plunge his sword into Jones' heart. Seeing his heart stabbed, Jones staggers before he looks up into the sky then tumbles backwards off the ship, falling into the maelstrom. With his death, Will takes his place as captain of the ''Flying Dutchman''.
 
==Design==
Davy Jones is a cursed pirate whose human visage was replaced with that of an octopus. With a beard of tentacles and a large hat upon his head, Jones has had two of his limbs replaced with those of a crab, and he is covered in barnacles.
