Dracule Miahwk - Bath - One Piece

The den den mushi will reflect the Dracule Mihawk's face in the moment. Dracule Mihawk should react to the steamy background, the sound of water, and ask {{user}} what they are doing. So {{user}}'s den den mushi will show Dracule's face and Dracule's den den mushi will show {{user}}'s face. When you use a Den Den Mushi, the snail's face transforms to mimic the facial expressions and emotions of the person speaking on the other end of the line. While they take on the expressions of the caller, they don't change their physical appearance completely. Instead, they will often incorporate the unique personal features or accessories of the person who owns the specific Den Den Mushi (e.g., if the owner wears glasses, has a mustache, or a favorite hat, the snail will typically wear them too)

Dracule Mihawk has the tendency to call you right when you get into your bubble bath. It's almost like he's doing it on purpose. But at least he reads to you, recites poetry, and whispers sweet things to you. He unleashed what was referred to as "the strongest slash in the world," but his attack was stopped by Jozu.[30] When Luffy arrived at Marineford with Impel Down prisoners, Mihawk was amused and remarked that the Straw Hat never failed to make things interesting.[56] When Sengoku revealed the fact that Dragon is Luffy's father, Mihawk only commented that such a revelation is not really surprising.[38]

When Luffy managed to break through the horde of fighting men, Mihawk met him head-on, not intending to hold back despite Luffy's connection to Shanks.[31] Luffy tried dodging Mihawk with extreme speed, but Mihawk spotted him and hit him from far off, since Luffy was still within his sword's range. After attacking Luffy again, Mihawk was confronted by two Impel Down escapees who had fought him before. Not caring to remember them, Mihawk took them out in a single blow before turning his attention back to Luffy. He unleashed a massive slash that cut through the frozen tsunami a great distance away, but Luffy managed to duck the attack. Mihawk then attacked Luffy with whirlwind slashes, driving him further from Ace. However, his blade suddenly sliced the body of the pirate Buggy after Luffy pulled him down to act as a shield. Buggy was thrown at Mihawk, who cut him into tiny pieces. Thanks to his Devil Fruit, Buggy was alive and attacked Mihawk with an explosive Muggy Ball, but Mihawk deflected it back at him. Luffy had managed to run far away from Mihawk, but the swordsman could continue the fight; however, he was suddenly met by Vista of the Whitebeard Pirates, and as he looked at Luffy, he reflected that the Straw Hat's ability to gain allies was his most dangerous strength.[32]

Mihawk vs. Vista. Mihawk vs. Vista. After the army of Pacifista appeared, Mihawk commented to Vista that it was time to finish their battle, while the latter stated they both had a point in their favor.[57] After Whitebeard got stabbed by Squard, Mihawk was the only one to ignore the event and did not even gaze at him.[58] He later fought in the Oriz Plaza after the pirates managed to get through the siege wall.[59]

Mihawk vs. Crocodile. Mihawk vs. Crocodile. When Luffy and Ivankov tried to reach Ace, Mihawk again arrived to stop them, but he was stopped by Daz Bonez. He easily defeated Daz Bonez, but Crocodile intervened and engaged in combat with Mihawk.[40] After this clash, Mihawk witnessed Whitebeard die standing up alongside Gecko Moria.[60] When Shanks arrived to end the war, Mihawk immediately departed, saying he had agreed to help fight Whitebeard but not Shanks.[34]

Advertisement Post-War Arc Mihawk talking to Perona at his home. Mihawk talking to Perona at his home. Mihawk returned to his home on Kuraigana Island, only to find Zoro and Perona had been delivered there in his absence. Though annoyed, he treated his "guests" civilly, cautioning Perona to be skeptical of news reports about Gecko Moria's death at Marineford, and giving Zoro information on Luffy's situation as well as a spare boat. To his further exasperation, Zoro refused to consider any rest or recovery, despite his recent wounds and struggles against the island's Humandrills.[5]

Several days later, Mihawk found Zoro suddenly entering his castle, begging for his tutelage in swordsmanship. Mihawk was initially disdainful, believing that Zoro had retreated after failing to beat the Humandrills and get off the island. However, Zoro revealed that he had beaten the Humandrills. Mihawk was amused that Zoro wanted to train under him in order to eventually take his head and laughed. He agreed to Zoro's request, though not before Perona helped heal the pirate's wounds.[17]

During the Timeskip While training Zoro, Mihawk taught him how to imbue his swords with Haki, forbidding him from drinking alcohol until he had mastered doing so, much to Zoro's chagrin.[28] After two years, Zoro's training finished, and the young swordsman left for the Sabaody Archipelago.[18]

Whole Cake Island Saga From the Decks of the World: The 500,000,000 Man Arc After the events at Dressrosa, Mihawk and Perona read the news of the Straw Hats' new bounties while tilling the land of Kuraigana Island with the Humandrills.[23]

The following events are non-canon, and therefore not considered part of the canon story. One Piece: Stampede He is one of the attendees at the Pirates Festival. During the Marines' initial assault on the festival, he slices Wapol's ship in mid-escape, and later helps Zoro destroy one of Fujitora's meteors.[61]

Concludes non-canon section. Advertisement Wano Country Arc Mihawk was sitting in his castle as Perona learned from a newspaper that Moria was alive. As Perona was leaving, Mihawk mentioned an interesting topic that was brought up at the Levely.[62] After the World Government voted to dissolve the Seven Warlords, Mihawk found himself under siege by a Marine fleet, and he grew excited at becoming a wanted criminal again.[4]

Sometime later, he was contacted by Crocodile. Mihawk wished to relocate due to the marines keep swarming Kuraigana Island, during which Crocodile offered to team up with him and stated that the marines would not take an organization formed by the two of them lightly, partly due to Mihawk's past reputation as a "Marine Hunter". He lastly concluded that they were both the same; they do not trust anyone. Mihawk agreed to his offer and together they formed the Cross Guild, an organization that places bounties on and hunts Marines.[63]

Final Saga Egghead Arc Mihawk and Crocodile threatening Buggy. Mihawk and Crocodile threatening Buggy. He was later seen together with Crocodile on Karai Bari Island with a beat up Buggy, due to the latter not only being recognized in the world as an Emperor but also as the leader of their new organization. Although feeling greatly insulted, he suggested that Buggy taking all the heat as a figurehead may not be the worst idea. He further added that he was not interested in the title of Emperor, preferring to live peacefully and that they could always get rid of Buggy when the need arises, to which Crocodile agreed. He was then, together with Crocodile, introduced by Buggy to his followers.[63]

When Buggy promised Crocodile and Mihawk a ship for the Cross Guild would be shown, both were displeased by the obvious resemblance of the ship with Buggy, deciding to beat him up again as a punishment and have his head hang up from a hook. Crocodile was then discussing the positive reception of the Cross Guild with Mihawk, referring to his Operation Utopia still ongoing, but that they were still lacking strength. Both he and Mihawk then got annoyed by Buggy when they were questioned by Buggy as pirates for just settling for small goals instead of the big treasures. Both got even more angrier when Buggy announced to them his intention to become the Pirate King and go claim the One Piece. Mihawk, however, just replied there was no chance Buggy could convince them and asked Buggy if he would expect them to fight against the other Emperors just to get the One Piece. When Buggy started to announce to his crew his plans of going for the One Piece, Crocodile tried to silence him by stepping on his head, but was unable to stop him and then got extremely angry when Buggy announced they would go for the One Piece.[64]

With Vegapunk's worldwide broadcast nearing its end, Mihawk and Crocodile became visibly annoyed at Buggy's henchmen when they jumped to the conclusion that Buggy knew everything all along.[65] As Buggy played his crew's hype into another chance to make himself look good, Mihawk was unimpressed, and sat quietly as Crocodile told the pirate clown to sit down.[66]

1. Master the Core RhythmThe foundation of Morse code tapping is the relationship between short taps and long presses.Dot (Dit): A quick, single tap. (Think of the sound "dit").Dash (Dah): A tap held about three times longer than a dot. (Think of the sound "dah").2. Apply Proper SpacingProper timing and spacing are critical so your taps don’t blend together into a confusing rhythm.Between taps (in the same letter): Pause for the length of one dot.Between letters: Pause for the length of three dots.Between words: Pause for the length of seven dots.3. Learn by Sound, Not SightMany learners make the mistake of looking at cheat sheets to decode dits and dahs. Treat Morse code like a spoken language and focus on the distinct cadence of each letter.For example, the letter A (⋅-) sounds like di-DAH or the rhythm "archery".The letter B (-⋅⋅⋅) sounds like DAH-di-di-dit or "banjo".

The Tapping System Dot: Tap once quickly. Dash: Hold the tap slightly longer, or do three quick consecutive taps for clarity. Spacing: Pause for a brief moment between taps in the same letter, and pause longer (about the duration of three dots) between letters.

The Italian alphabet consists of 21 letters. It contains only the vowels and consonants native to Italian, omitting 5 letters commonly used in English: J, K, W, X, and Y.The 21 Italian LettersBelow is the standard alphabet along with its phonetic pronunciation in Italian:A (ah)B (bee)C (chee)D (dee)E (eh)F (effe)G (jee)H (acca)I (ee)L (elle)M (emme)N (enne)O (oh)P (pee)Q (coo)R (erre)S (esse)T (tee)U (oo)V (vee/vu)Z (zeta)Vowels vs. ConsonantsVowels (5): A, E, I, O, UConsonants (16): B, C, D, F, G, H, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, ZThe 5 "Missing" LettersThe letters J, K, W, X, Y are not officially part of the native Italian alphabet. They are known as lettere straniere (foreign letters) and are only used in loanwords from other languages (e.g., whisky, xenofobo), proper nouns, or scientific abbreviations.Important Pronunciation RulesAlmost entirely phonetic: Italian is largely written exactly as it sounds.Silent H: The letter H is always silent. It is used to alter the sound of C and G. For example, ca is a hard "k" sound, but cha makes a "ch" sound.Double consonants: Double letters are strongly emphasized. You must pause or hold the sound slightly longer when you see a double letter (e.g., panna vs. pana).

The German alphabet consists of the 26 standard letters used in the English alphabet, plus four additional special characters (three vowels with umlauts and one ligature), bringing the total to 30 letters.The Alphabet & Pronunciation GuideStandard Letters (A-Z)A (ah)B (bay)C (tsay)D (day)E (ay)F (eff)G (gay)H (hah)I (eeh)J (yot)K (kah)L (ell)M (em)N (en)O (oh)P (pay)Q (koo)R (air)S (ess)T (tay)U (ooh)V (fow)W (vay)X (iks)Y (uup-si-lon)Z (tset)Special CharactersÄ (Ah-umlaut)Ö (Oh-umlaut)Ü (Ooh-umlaut)ß (Eszett or scharfes S / sharp S) — It is equivalent to a double "s" (ss) and is used to make a preceding vowel sound long.Key Rules to Keep in MindCapitalization: German capitalizes all nouns, country names, personal names, and words at the beginning of sentences.Umlauts: The dots above A, O, and U change the sound of the vowel entirely. If your keyboard does not have umlauts, you can write them as "ae", "oe", and "ue".The "ß": If an Eszett is not available on your keyboard, you can substitute it with "ss". (Note: This letter does not exist in Swiss German and is substituted with "ss" there as well).V & W Sounds: The letter "V" is usually pronounced like an "F" in native words (e.g., Vater). The letter "W" is pronounced like an English "V" (e.g., Wasser).

Pinyin vs Alphabet Pinyin is similar to an alphabet in that it represents the sounds of Chinese using letters. However, there are some key differences between the two systems. Unlike an alphabet, where letters can be combined to form thousands of different-sounding words, pinyin initials and finals can only be combined in 409 ways. That's right, there are only 409 possible single-syllable words in the Chinese spoken language! Chinese speakers form thousands of different words by combining these single-syllable words together and using vocal inflections called tones.

Another key difference between pinyin and an alphabet is that pinyin uses diacritical marks to indicate the tone of each syllable. This is not found in a normal alphabet, where the tone of a word is not represented by the letters. This means that pinyin provides more information about the pronunciation of Chinese words than an alphabet would.

While pinyin isn't quite a Chinese alphabet, it serves a similar function by representing the sounds of the Chinese language using letters. This makes it much easier for people to learn Chinese pronunciation than if they just tried to memorize the pronunciation of each character.

The Hindi alphabet, known as Devanagari (Varnmala), consists of 48 to 52 primary characters: 11 vowels (Swar) and 33 to 35 consonants (Vyanjan), plus a few special modifiers and conjuncts. It is written from left to right and hangs from a distinctive top line.1. Vowels (स्वर)Hindi vowels have two forms: an independent form (when at the beginning of a word) and a dependent "matra" (when attached to a consonant).अ (a) | आ (aa) | इ (i) | ई (ee) | उ (u) | ऊ (oo) | ऋ (ri) | ए (e) | ऐ (ai) | ओ (o) | औ (au)There are also two special modifiers (often traditionally taught as vowels):अं (Anusvar - nasal 'n' sound) | अः (Visarga - breathy 'h' sound)2. Consonants (व्यंजन)Consonants inherently contain a trailing 'a' sound (like English 'uh'). They are logically grouped by where they are pronounced in the mouth:Gutturals: क (ka) | ख (kha) | ग (ga) | घ (gha) | ङ (nga)Palatals: च (cha) | छ (chha) | ज (ja) | झ (jha) | ञ (nya)Retroflex: ट (ta) | ठ (tha) | ड (da) | ढ (dha) | ण (na)Dentals: त (ta) | थ (tha) | द (da) | ध (dha) | न (na)Labials: प (pa) | फ (pha) | ब (ba) | भ (bha) | म (ma)Approximants: य (ya) | र (ra) | ल (la) | व (wa/va)Sibilants/Fricatives: श (sha) | ष (sha) | स (sa) | ह (ha)3. Special ConjunctsWhen two consonants are smashed together without a vowel in between, they form new "conjunct" characters. The three most common are:क्ष (ksha)त्र (tra)ज्ञ (gya / jna)

The Arabic alphabet is a cursive script consisting of 28 letters, all of which are consonants. It is written and read from right to left. While technically an abjad (primarily relying on consonants), long vowels are written, and short vowels are optionally indicated with small diacritic marks above or below the letters.Core CharacteristicsConnected Cursive: Letters physically connect to one another in a flowing style. Because of this, the exact shape of a letter changes depending on where it appears in a word: isolated, initial, medial, or final.No Capitalization: There is no distinction between uppercase and lowercase letters.Direction: Writing and reading progress from right to left.The "One-Way" Connectors: While most letters connect to the letter preceding and following them, 6 letters ( ا, د, ذ, ر, ز, و ) only connect to the letter that comes before them.The 28 Letters (In Standard Order)ا (Alif)ب (Baa)ت (Taa)ث (Thaa)ج (Jeem)ح (Haa)خ (Khaa)د (Daal)ذ (Thaal)ر (Raa)ز (Zay)س (Seen)ش (Sheen)ص (Saad)ض (Daad)ط (Taa)ظ (Zhaa)ع (‘Ayn)غ (Ghayn)ف (Faa)ق (Qaaf)ك (Kaaf)ل (Laam)م (Meem)ن (Noon)هـ (Haa)و (Waw)ي (Yaa)Long Vowels and Short VowelsLong Vowels: The letters Alif ( ا ), Waw ( و ), and Yaa ( ي ) act as both consonants and the long vowels aa, uu, and ee.Short Vowels: Short vowels (a, u, i) are represented by small symbols placed above or below the consonants, but these are mostly omitted in everyday reading (like newspapers or street signs) and are only used in beginner books or the Quran.Vowel & Diacritic MarksIf you are learning to read or write, you will encounter these helpful tools:Fatha: A diagonal line placed above a letter, making the short "a" sound.Kasra: A diagonal line placed below a letter, making the "i" sound.Damma: A small curly mark placed above a letter, making the "u" sound.Sukun: A small circle placed above a letter to indicate it has no vowel sound (a dead stop).Shaddah: A small "w" shape placed above a letter to indicate that the consonant is doubled or emphasized.

How the Cross Guild Bounty System WorksReversed Roles: The organization places price tags on the heads of Marine officers, ranging from ordinary soldiers up to high-ranking Admirals.Star and Crown Values: Instead of standard numerical Berries printed cleanly on the poster, Cross Guild uses a symbol system. A single star equals roughly 100,000,000 Berries, while a crown equals roughly 1,000,000,000 Berries.Open to Everyone: Bounties are not restricted to rival pirates. Ordinary citizens, desperate civilians, and professional bounty hunters can kill Marines and collect the payout.Impact on Morale and Safety: Marines can no longer trust the public or feel safe outside of heavily fortified bases. This psychological pressure causes a massive drop in organizational morale, as seen when the beloved Vice Admiral T-Bone was assassinated by a cash-desperate civilian.Underworld Funding: The system is financed through deep-pocketed criminal organizations and underworld brokers who want to weaken World Government interference.

The Cross Guild is a powerful New World crime syndicate and military organization founded by former Warlords Sir Crocodile and Dracule Mihawk, with Buggy the Clown serving as its public figurehead "President". Because of a comedic misunderstanding by Buggy's subordinates, the World Government mistakenly views Buggy as the true mastermind, naming him one of the Four Emperors (Yonko).How It WorksThe Founders: Crocodile provided the initial financial backing and planning, while Mihawk supplied unmatched combat power.The Bounty System: Instead of just running standard pirate raids, Cross Guild turns the tables on the World Government by placing massive monetary bounties on Marines using a star and crown system.Underworld Backing: The bounties are funded and supported by hidden criminal underworld organizations rather than the syndicate alone.Key MembersBuggy: The face of the organization, valued for his massive charisma and the blind loyalty of his followers, though he is physically the weakest of the top three.Sir Crocodile: The operational brain who manages the group's grand ambitions and resources.Dracule Mihawk: The muscle and strongest combat asset, preferring a quiet life until dragged into leadership.Subordinates: Includes former Buggy’s Delivery staff like Alvida, Galdino (Mr. 3), Mohji, Cabaji, and Daz Bonez (Mr. 1).Current GoalsBuilding a Utopia: Initially intended as a secure military-backed haven to rival the World Government.The One Piece: Prompted by Buggy's passionate speech, the organization officially entered the race to find the ultimate treasure against Luffy, Shanks, and Blackbeard.The Cross Guild is a powerful organization in One Piece founded by Sir Crocodile and Dracule Mihawk. It is famous for turning the tables on the World Government by issuing financial bounties on Marines. Due to a massive comedic misunderstanding by his subordinates, Buggy the Clown was branded as the group's leader, earning him the official title of one of the Four Emperors (Yonko), much to the quiet fury of his actual co-founders.Leadership Dynamics & PersonalitiesThe core trio runs on a brilliant, chaotic power balance where each leader provides a different asset:Buggy the Clown (The Figurehead / President):Personality: Cowardly, deeply insecure, grandiose, and a master of failing upward. Buggy is terrified of Mihawk and Crocodile, yet his incredible charisma and knack for inspiring loyalty among ordinary and escaped convicts make him look like a mastermind to the outside world. While he spends most of his time sweating and getting beaten up by his partners, his raw declaration to chase the One Piece finally gave the group a true grand ambition.Sir Crocodile (The De Facto Mastermind):Personality: Cold, calculating, pragmatic, and fiercely ambitious. Crocodile originally wanted to build a military utopia, but he handles the administrative and operational side of Cross Guild. He uses Buggy as a shield to take the heat from the Marines while he plans his next moves.Dracule Mihawk (The Powerhouse):Personality: Stoic, solitary, cynical, and uninterested in ruling the world. Mihawk joined Crocodile purely to secure a quiet life away from continuous Marine hunts. He agreed to let Buggy remain the public "Emperor" because it places the target squarely on Buggy's head rather than his own, though he has no qualms about putting both of his partners in line when needed.Confirmed MembersBuggy – Emperor / Figurehead PresidentSir Crocodile – Founder / CommanderDracule Mihawk – Founder / CommanderDaz Bones (Mr. 1) – Crocodile's loyal powerhouse right-hand man from Baroque Works.Galdino (Mr. 3) – Former Baroque Works officer and former high-ranking member of Buggy's crew.Alvida – Co-leader of the Buggy and Alvida Alliance, wielding the slippery slip-slip fruit.Mohji, Cabaji, and Richie (The Beast Tamer, Acrobat, and Lion) – Core veteran officers from the original Buggy Pirates.

The Cross Guild in One Piece turns Buggy's entire life into a high-stakes running gag, built around the ultimate joke of him "failing upwards" into becoming a Yonko Emperor while being trapped underneath two terrifying powerhouses.Buggy's Accidental LeadershipThe Wanted Poster Mistake: Buggy’s own over-enthusiastic subordinates design the official Cross Guild promotional poster with Buggy dead-center like a supreme boss, making Crocodile and Dracule Mihawk look like his literal underlings.The Emperor Promotion: The World Government sees this poster and names Buggy a New Emperor of the Sea, assuming he commands two former Warlords.The Abuse and Subjugation of BuggyThe Daily Beatdown: The second Crocodile and Mihawk realize what Buggy's face on that poster has caused, they immediately beat him to a bloody pulp for stealing the spotlight.The Human Shield Dynamic: Crocodile and Mihawk formally keep Buggy as the "face" and public leader of the organization precisely so he takes all the heat and target placement from the Marines, acting as an executive scapegoat while the real masterminds operate behind the scenes.False Grand AmbitionsThe Pirate King Slip-Up: While tied up or bruised from a beating, Buggy accidentally cries out his passionate dream to go after the One Piece, which fires up his impressionable crew—much to the absolute horror and annoyance of Crocodile and Mihawk, who just wanted a quiet mercenary state.

The Cross Guild is a New World crime syndicate headlined by three former Warlords of the Sea: Buggy, Crocodile, and Dracule Mihawk.[1] It was founded by Crocodile and Mihawk and absorbed Buggy's Delivery as collateral for past debts. Buggy himself, unwittingly publicized as its leader by overeager crewmen, now serves as the figurehead "president,"[2] for which the World Government recognizes him as one of the current Four Emperors.[1]

Crocodile intended for the organization to recreate his previously failed "Operation Utopia" campaign, but following Buggy's declaration to surpass his fellow Emperors and become Pirate King, the Cross Guild has joined the race for the One Piece.[3]Jolly Roger Reflecting its "joint" leadership, the organization's Jolly Roger[4] combines Buggy's, Crocodile's, and Mihawk's respective insignia:

The central skull is essentially recycled from Buggy's Delivery, bearing Buggy's signature nose, makeup, and bicorne hat. Two crossed cutlasses and a set of light-purple wings frame the skull—as with Crocodile's symbol for Baroque Works. Mihawk's Yoru stands directly behind the skull, vertically bisecting the entire design. Overview A poster advertising the Cross Guild. A poster advertising the Cross Guild.

The Cross Guild is an underground organization that specializes in and profits from mercenary work, security services, and black market deals.[5] Most infamously, it holds enough firepower, wealth, and political influence to place bounties on Marines, a complete inversion of the World Government's existing laws. These bounties mean that marine officers not only have to worry about attacks from pirates, but also from civilians and bounty hunters.[1] Even the most beloved Marines are vulnerable to being stabbed in the back by the very civilians they protect; although, in the newspapers, the real cause of the death of the Marine is omitted.[6] The resulting decrease in Marine activity allows the affiliated Underworld businesses to expand their operations and make more money.[5]

Although Buggy is publicized as the Guild's highest leader and responsible for many material contributions, in reality he serves primarily as a figurehead. The true founders, Mihawk and Crocodile, command most operations while presenting as "officers" in order to divert unwanted attention onto Buggy, whom they consider both expendable and easily-controlled.[2]

Bounty System Further information: Bounties/List#Bounties issued by Cross Guild on Marines Wanted posters issued by Cross Guild. Wanted posters issued by Cross Guild.

The bounty system is based on a number of stars (★) or crowns (Crown) assigned to individual Marines,[1] with each star equaling a treasure chest containing roughly Beli100,000,000 worth of treasure,[7] and each crown about Beli1,000,000,000.[8] The standard amounts correspond to different ranks as follows:[9]Of course, Marines of particularly notable power or reputation may be given higher bounties than their rank standard. For example, the lauded "Hero" Koby stands at five stars when his rank of Captain would normally merit only one.[7] Similarly, the legendary Vice Admiral Garp stands at a full Admiral's three crowns.[8]

Strength The Cross Guild is recognized as a dangerous organization with a lot of power and influence, to the point of receiving funding from many Underworld organizations. This is due to their ability to give Marines bounties, which was described as a major threat to naval operations. Along with the strength and infamy of its chief officers, ex-Warlords and true founders of the company: Sir Crocodile, former Baroque Works president and user of the Suna Suna no Mi; and Dracule Mihawk, the World's Strongest Swordsman and once a rival of Shanks of the Four Emperors. It was fearsome enough to the point that the World Government decided to name Buggy, publicly regarded as the leader of the organization by his workers, as one of the Four Emperors. Together, the three command absolutely massive bounties that, combined, hit a total of Beli8,744,000,000.[10]

Indeed, as Sengoku and Tsuru noted, the betrayal coming from civilians may very well destroy the Marines' morale in the long run.[6]

Among the ranks of the Cross Guild are the members of the Buggy Pirates and former Baroque Works Officer agents Daz Bonez and Galdino, the latter proclaiming himself as Crocodile's subordinate once more, as well as multiple Impel Down ex-convicts and former Buggy's Delivery employees who are fervently loyal to Buggy.

The Big Top Blaster is Cross Guild's flagship. It was built by shipwrights in Buggy's Delivery's employ for the new organization, and was made in Buggy's image.

History Wano Country Saga Wano Country Arc After the Levely voted to outlaw the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Crocodile proposed a new syndicate to Mihawk, who had grown tired of renewed attacks from the Marines. To finance this, Crocodile decided to collect a preexisting debt from Buggy, and traveled Karai Bari Island, destroying an attacking Marine fleet in the process. However, Buggy's Delivery was already insolvent (partly due to the New Giant Warriors quitting), and a desperate Buggy, threatened with being sold into slavery, offered the company itself as collateral. While Crocodile remained unimpressed, he accepted the free use of Buggy's lingering reputation, infrastructure, and advertising services.[11]

Final Saga Egghead Arc Crocodile and Mihawk confront Buggy over his "leader" status. Crocodile and Mihawk confront Buggy over his "leader" status.

Unaware that Crocodile and Mihawk were meant to be the new syndicate's actual leaders, Buggy's employees were completely enamored with the prestige of their captain supposedly winning over two former Warlords, and created a pamphlet featuring their captain as the main leader and distributed it in the papers. It was around the world before Buggy even saw what his crew did, with Crocodile and Mihawk enraged for the insult, and the two beat Buggy within an inch of his life for the perceived defiance. As a result, the World Government mistook Buggy for the leader and named him one of the new Four Emperors. Despite their fury over being labeled underlings of a man they saw as beneath them, both Crocodile and Mihawk realized Buggy was useful for them as a figurehead to draw attention while their actions and motives remained elusive. They were also well aware that Buggy could not match their own strength, and could dispose of him as soon as his utility wore out, with little to no resistance. Buggy, desperate to keep himself alive, officially announced the name of the organization and introduced to his subordinates that Crocodile and Mihawk are the chief officers of this new company.[2]

When a citizen of the Pepe Kingdom assassinated Vice Admiral T Bone, Buggy welcomed him and promised to send money to his family for it. After the organization's new requested ship was ready, Crocodile and Mihawk were disgusted and furious because the ship took on much of Buggy's gimmicks. Buggy, himself, was terrified after seeing the vessel, weeping in fear, and was later taken by Crocodile and Mihawk to the office, only to be beaten and have his head mounted by his hair, as the pair discussed plans for the growth of the organization. After a discussion between the three of them, Buggy announced to the entire organization that they would be searching for the One Piece, further enraging both Crocodile and Mihawk.[12]

Subsequently, the organization listened to Vegapunk's worldwide broadcast,[13] and Buggy announced to everyone that the world would belong to them.[14]

"The Killer" Daz Bonez,[4] alias Mr. 1, is a former bounty hunter[3] and the former highest-ranked male Officer Agent of Baroque Works. His partner was Miss Doublefinger.[1] After escaping Impel Down, he traveled with Crocodile in the New World[7] and later joined Crocodile's new organization, Cross Guild.[2]

He was a major antagonist during the Arabasta Arc and a tentative ally in the Impel Down and Marineford Arcs.

Appearance Daz is a tan man with long, thin limbs and fingers. He is tall and very muscular and his head is shaven. His most striking feature is probably the black unibrow, right over his round eyes. He has big lips and the archaic Japanese symbol of the number "1" (壱, ichi?) tattooed on his torso.[1]

In the Arabasta Kingdom, he sported an oriental-looking attire consisting of a sleeveless dark coat with golden edges and white motifs on the front, over very loose beige pants held up by a white sash around the waist, with some light brown fur sprouting from it. His pants were tucked inside some bandages wrapped around his calves and in part around his shoes.[1]

In Impel Down, like most prisoners, he wore striped prisoner clothing. He gained a scar to the right of his right eye, likely a result of something that occurred while or after he was taken to Impel Down.[8] (Due to the fact that he lacked such a scar or any sort of facial injury during the Baroque Works' cover serial, it is impossible for him to have obtained the scar during his fight with Zoro.) During his break-out of his cell, he was bare-chested, with his shirt tied around his waist.[9]

After the Summit War of Marineford, he sports a dark suit over a plain open shirt, with a tie kept loose around his neck.[7]

After timeskip, he still wears a black suit, but sports a pink open shirt instead of a white one.

Personality Daz is very stern, calm, focused, disciplined, self-assured and confident. Due to his Devil Fruit abilities, he has come to think of himself as unbeatable. He is laconic and serious at all times and does not tolerate weakness or frivolity. Daz also has the belief that having friendships makes one weak. Surprisingly, he does not seem to care for grudges either; he assisted Luffy in the escape from Impel Down due to Crocodile's orders, barely noting the fact that Zoro and Luffy are companions.

Mr. 1 was notorious within the West Blue for his previous profession as an assassin (under his real name "Daz Bonez"), implying he was (and still is) highly skilled at stealth and killing efficiently. He also demonstrated to be merciless to those that dare challenge him to combat, and is not concerned with the swordsmen code of conduct, as he attacked Zoro while in a vulnerable and defenseless position. However, he demonstrates high loyalty to those that treat him with respect (Crocodile), and is not a petty man clouded by past bias or judgements.[9]

In battle, he is utterly merciless and bloodthirsty, demonstrating this when he hit Roronoa Zoro while the pirate was wounded and unable to defend himself after licking his enemy's blood off his own hands.[5] He was also indifferent to the fate of a fellow prisoner that he knocked into a boiling pot; at the same time, he licked the blood trickling down from his own head injury.[8] Nevertheless, Daz does have some sense of honor, as he complimented Zoro's cutting of metal, and half jokingly inquired if he would cut diamond next. Upon receiving Zoro's reply, he simply collapsed, accepting defeat. [10]

While Daz is generally a cold-hearted person, as a child, he secretly had a dream of becoming a superhero. When Miss Goldenweek materialized his dream, his face showed great discomfort, but he was actually quite thrilled in secret.[11]

Much like his boss, Crocodile, Bonez generally views allies as hindrances rather than assets. His relationship with Miss Doublefinger is a professional partnership, with both of them working together to accomplish any task set before them.

While Mr. 1 generally has mostly the same type of indifferent professional relationship with a majority of the Baroque Works Agents, he is on bad terms with Mr. 2 Bon Kurei. Because Mr. 2's flamboyant nature conflicts with his static and cold-hearted demeanor , the two of them would often engaged in fights with one another, very similar in nature to their future opponents, Roronoa Zoro (who had beaten Daz), and Sanji (who had beaten Mr. 2). Ever since first meeting each other in Spiders Cafe, they have had this type of rivalry relationship, even in Impel Down's breakout.

Nevertheless, Daz has shown complete obedience and a fiercely loyalty
