6565 Reiji, also known as Pirate Island, is a Main Belt asteroid discovered on March 23, 1992 by K. Endate at Kitami.
It serves as "home port" for the Space Pirates, no matter whose flag their ships might actually fly. Reiji was a major staging point for anti-Boskonian operations throughout Operation Great Justice.
One of Pirate Island's best-known drinking establishments is The Drunken Harlock, the Belt's only authentic dockside bar.
