Cipher Pol "CP 9" One Piece

Cipher Pol adalah organisasi kepolisian fiktif yang ada dalam manga dan anime One Piece. Cipher Pol (CP) terdiri atas CP 1 sampai 8 yang bekerja di 8 belahan dunia yang berbeda. CP adalah satuan agen rahasia, mereka dapat memperoleh informasi apa saja yang diinginkan oleh pemerintah. Namun, ada satu CP yang keberadaanya seakan dihilangkan karena memiliki kekuatan melebihi manusia super, yaitu CP9.



CP9


CP9 adalah satuan unit rahasia pemerintah yang memiliki kekuatan dan keistimewaan khusus. Kekuatan yang CP9 miliki bernama Rokushiki (enam wujud). Rokushiki sangat menambah kekuatan mereka mulai dari serangan, kecepatan dan pertahanan. Ada 9 orang agen CP9, empat diantaranya mempunyai kekuatan buah iblis. Markas CP9 berada di pulau pengadilan Enies Lobby

Pemerintah menginginkan rancangan senjata kuno Pluton (sebenarnya sebuah kapal perang raksasa) sehingga mereka memerintah CP9 untuk mencarinya. CP9 menemukan kalau rancangan kapal tersebut ada di tangan Iceburg, walikota Water Seven. Selama 5 tahun terkhir, empat anggota CP9 (Blueno, Rob Lucci, Kaku, Califa) menyamar menjadi orang-orang terdekat Iceburg. Setelah kelompok topi jerami datang bersama Robin, CP9 mengancam Robin agar dia mau membantunya untuk merebut pluton. Jika tidak, para anggota topi jerami akan dihancurkan oleh serbuan Buster Call. Robin menyetujuinya karena buster call adalah sebagian dari masa lalu kelamnya.

CP9 mempunyai wewenang penyeruan Buster Call dari Admiral Aokiji. Diberikan kepada sang pemimpin, Spandam. CP9 punya anggota kesembilan yaitu anggota baru Nero si anjing laut. Selain wewenang untuk menyerukan Buster Call, CP9 punya hak istimewa untuk membunuh penduduk sipil yang tidak bisa diajak bekerja sama.

4000 Douriki

Usia: 28 tahun (30 tahun setelah time skip)

Tanggal lahir: 2 Juni

Buah iblis: Buah Neko Neko, Model: Macan Tutul; Tipe: Zoan


Rob Lucci pertama kali muncul sebagai salah satu pemimpin tukang kayu Galley-La Company dengan kemampuan ventriloquist dan sempat bertarung dengan Pauly. Lucci mempunyai seekor burung merpati yang bernama Hattori. Lucci sangat dingin dan menjadi musuh paling sadis dalam cerita ini. Lucci punya karakteristik yang tegas dan tanpa basa-basi. Seperti ketika membunuh Nero yang gagal dalam tugas.

Lucci kemudian memperkenalkan sosok CP9 nya dalam serangan malam hari kedua di Galley-La Headquarters. Dia bersama tiga anggota lainnya masuk ke kamar Iceburg dan mengetahui kalau rancangan Pluton ada di tangan Franky. Di saat inilah Rob Lucci terlihat sebagai pemimpin sekaligus sebagai anggota terkuat CP9 dan juga memberikan bukti ternyata kalau dia bisa berbicara. Lucci memiliki kekuatan buah iblis Neko Neko Type: Leopard yang bisa bertransformasi menjadi leopard raksasa. Ia dikalahkan Luffy dengan jurus Gomu Gomu Jet Gatling.

Califa

'630 Douriki

Usia: 25 tahun (27 setelah time skip)

Tanggal lahir: 23 April

Tinggi badan: 165 cm

Buah Iblis: Buah Awa Awa; Tipe: Paramecia

Califa adlah satu-satunya wanita di CP9. Ia pertama muncul sebagai sekretaris cantik Iceburg. Dan sangat sangat hormat padanya. Pada saat serangan malam hari kedua, Califa menggunakan senjata cambuk dengan duri untuk menyerang. Dan senjata ini terus menjadi andalannya disamping serangan buah iblisnya. Namun, ketika melawan Sanji dan Nami di Enies Lobby, ia tidak menggunakan lagi senjata cambuknya.

Califa tampil menggunakan pakaian minim dan memakai kacamata. Califa juga sangat feminim, dan sangat membenci perkataan dan sikap pria (terutama Spandam) yang berbau pelecehan seksual. Setelah mengalahkan Sanji, ia bertarung dengan Nami dan mengubah Nami menjadi manekin, seperti Sanji. Ia dikalahkan Nami dengan jurus Thunder Lance Tempo.

Buah iblis Califa adalah buah Awa Awa (busa/sabun) yang diberi oleh Spandam sejak datang

Kaku

2200 Douriki

Usia: 23 tahun (25 setelah time skip)

Tanggal lahir: 7 Agustus

Buah Iblis: Buah Ushi Ushi, Model: Jerapah; Tipe: Zoan

Kaku muncul sebagai salah satu pemimpin tukang kayu Galley-La Company. Nama kaku berasal dari bahasa jepang yang berarti sudut, yang datang dari hidung panjangnya (seperti Usopp) yang bentuknya persegi atau menyudut. Kaku merupakan anggota yang paling populer di CP9, dan sebelas secara keseluruhan, menurut voting yang diadakan.

Banyak yang mengira Kaku sebagai Usopp sejak di Water Seven. Kaku lebih pendiam dan tanpa emosi ketika berada di CP9 daripada ketika menyamar sebagai tukang kayu. Jurus Rokushiki "Geppou" selalu digunakan ketika melewati kota sehingga orang menyebutnya Angin Gunung, tetapi Franky menyebutnya "Monyet Gunung".

Ketika di Water Seven, Kaku menggunakan senjata-senjata tukang kayu. Semenjak berada di Enies Lobby, senjata Kaku adalah sepasang pedang. Kaku bukan seorang Nitoryuu (aliran dua pedang) tetapi seorang Yontoryuu (aliran empat pedang), dua pedang selanjutnya adalah jurus Rankyaku di kakinya. Ia dikalahkan Zoro dengan jurus Ashura ichibugin (jurus 9 pedang).

Buah Iblis Kaku adalah buah Ushi Ushi type: Jerapah yang diberi Spandam di Enies Lobby.

Blueno

820 Douriki

Usia: 30 tahun (32 setelah time skip)

Buah Iblis: Buah doa doa, tipe: paramecia

Blueno muncul sebagai bartender di Water Seven dan terlihat sangat dekat dengan Iceburg, Franky dan Pauly. Blueno adalah agen yang membisikkan nama CP9 pada Robin. Blueno memiliki kekuatan buah Iblis Doa Doa (pintu) yang bisa menciptakan pintu ditempat yang dia inginkan. Kekuatan ini juga bisa menciptakan pintu di udara untuk menuju tempat yang diinginkan.

Diantara semua anggota CP9, Tekkai milik Blueno kelihatannya adalah yang paling kuat. Blueno juga punya insting yang tajam dan punya pengetahuan mendalam tentang buah iblis. Blueno melawan Luffy di atap gedung pengadilan (courthouse). Disini, dia dapat menciptakan pintu putar di wajah Luffy dan menciptakan pintu untuk menuju dimensi lain.

Dia dikalahkan Luffy dengan jurus Gomu Gomu Jet Bazooka Dalam Keadaan Gear 2nd

Spandam

9 Douriki

usia: 39(41 setelah time skip)

Spandam pertama muncul sebagai pemimpin CP5 di masa lalu Franky. Wajahnya hancur karena dipukul dengan keras oleh Franky. Spandam juga diutus oleh pemerintah untuk mengambil rancangan Pluton 12 tahun yang lalu. Karena Tom (pemilik rancangan) menolak dan mengusirnya, Spandam bersumpah untuk menghancurkan nama baiknya. Tom ditangkap karena fitnah dari Spandam yaitu telah meledakkan kapal milik pemerintah dan Tom dibawa ke Ennies Lobby untuk dieksekusi. Franky marah dan memukul wajahnya dengan keras.

Dia menjadi pemimpin CP9 karena warisan dari ayahnya, Spandine. Dan tetap berada di Ennies Lobby sebagai pengawas anggota CP9 yang lain.

Spandam adalah orang yang licik, pengecut dan tidak punya kekuatan sama sekali. Spandam punya sebuah pedang yang memakan (lebih tepatnya digabungkan) buah iblis Zou Zou (gajah) yang dapat membuat pedang itu berubah menjadi gajah bernama Funkfreed.

Dia dihabisi Robin dengan Seiz Fleur Clutch dan pedangnya dijinakan oleh Franky

Nero

Nero adalah anggota baru CP9 yang dijuluki si anjing laut. Nero juga dijuluki sang pembunuh sebelum masuk menjadi CP9. Nero baru mempelajari jurus empat wujud daripada enam wujud. Jurus yang belum bisa dia pelajari adalah Shigan (peluru jari) dan Tekkai (tubuh besi). Untuk menutupi Tekkai, Nero bertarung dengan gerak cepat dan menggunakan Soru atau Kami-E. Sedangkan untuk menutupi Shigan, Nero membawa sepasang pistol untuk bertarung.

Nero kelihatannya adalah orang yang sombong, dan kemudian dikalahkan oleh Franky. Lucci mengatakan kalau dia tidak pantas menjadi CP9 karena terlalu lemah dan membunuhnya dengan Shigan dan dilempar kelaut ditengah gelombang Aqua Laguna. Kelihatannya dia sudah mati, tetapi karena kematian adalah hal yang jarang di One Piece, kelihatannya Nero masih hidup.

Nero sering mengucapkan "Shau" di kalimatnya seperti seekor anjing laut.

Fukurou

800 Douriki

usia: 29(31 setelah time skip)

Fukurou adalah agen CP9 bertubuh paling besar. Muncul bersama Jyabura dan Kumadori di Ennies Lobby. Mulut Fukurou dapat dibuka atau ditutup menggunakan resleting. Dan sering terlihat mulutnya ditutup. Walaupun begitu, Fukurou adalah orang bermulut besar.

Keahlian Fukurou adalah dapat membaca Douriki (tingkat kekuatan) seseorang dengan cara menyerangnya. Ia dikalahkan Franky dengan Coup De Vent.

Fukurou kadang mengatakan Chapapapapa di akhir kalimat. Fukurou berarti burung hantu dalam bahasa Jepang.

Jyabura

2180 Douriki

usia: 35(37 setelah time skip)

Jyabura muncul di Ennies Lobby bersama Fukurou dan Kumadori. Jyabura berpenampilan seperti orang Cina. Tetapi tempat tinggalnya di menara keadilan berarsitektur seperti halaman istana Jepang.

Gaya bertarung Jyabura menggunakan jurus Tekkai yang dinamakan Tekkai Kenpou. Jyabura juga punya kekuatan buah iblis Inu Inu type: serigala yang dapat berubah menjadi seekor serigala. Sepeti serigala, ia sangat licik. Jyabura dan Lucci adalah rival. Dia tidak senang apabila ada anggota CP9 yang lebih kuat darinya. Karena itu ia berusaha mencegah Kaku dan Califa memakan buah iblis yang diberikan Spandam. Ia dikalahkan Sanji dengan jurus Diable jamble Flambage Shot

Kumadori

810 Douriki

usia: 34(36 setelah time skip)

Kumadori muncul di Ennies Lobby dan menjadi agen terakhir yang diperkenalkan. Kumadori berpenampilan seperti seorang kabuki pada teater Jepang. Kumadori punya sifat yang selalu merasa bersalah. Sehingga kerapkali dia ingin melakukan bunuh diri tetapi tidak bisa karena dia mengeluarkan Tekkai.

Kata Kumadori berarti riasan wajah pada seorang aktor kabuki. Dalam penampilannya, Kumadori kadang-kadang melakukan drama layaknya seorang aktor.

Kumadori kadang megatakan "YOYOI" di akhir atau awal kalimat. Meskipun ia sangat kuat, Kumadori sangat mudah dibodohi. Ia akhirnya dikalahkan Chopper yang berubah menjadi monster dengan menggunakan 3 buah rumble ball.


Serangan Kumadori

  • Haru Gin Jo (Puisi Emosi Musim Semi) Kumadori Menikam Punggung Lawannya dengan Tongkatnya Dengan kekuatan yang luar biasa (dia terlebih Dahulu Menahan Lawannya dengan Kami Shibari)
  • Yana Gin Jo (Hapalan Emosi Pohon Willow) Sama Seperti Haru Gin Jo, Bedanya Dia Menyerang Dada Lawannya
  • Seimei Kikan : Kami Shibari (Pengembali Nyawa : Rambut Pengikat) Kumadori Dapat Mengontrol Rambutnya Untuk Mengikat Lawannya

CP9 20 Tahun Yang Lalu

Spandine

Muncul pada saat tragedi Ohara (masa lalu Nico Robin) sebagai pemimpin CP9. Kemungkinan adalah ayah dari Spandam dari kalimatnya setelah jaketnya tertembak dan juga karena ada kemiripan nama diantara mereka (SPAND). Sama seperti Spandam, dia adalah orang yang licik dan pengecut. Dalam investigasi para peneliti sejarah di Ohara, Spandine memerintahkan untuk menangkap semua peneliti dan kemudian menembak prof. Clover atas perintah Gorousei. Setelah menyerukan Buster Call, Spandine melihat hubungan antara Robin dan Olvia dan mengetahui kemampuannya untuk membaca Poneglyph. Setelah Ohara hancur, Spandine melaporkan ke Sengoku dan akhirnya Robin diberi harga 79000000 berry atas kepalanya. Spandine lah yang berbohong kalau Robin menenggelamkan 6 kapal angkatan laut.

Spandine dikawal oleh 2 anggota CP9 dan mereka juga dapat menggunakan 6 wujud. Pada saat pelariannya dari Ohara, Spandine mencegah Robin untuk masuk ke kapal evakuasi penduduk. Pada akhirnya kapal tersebut dihancurkan oleh laksamana madya Sakazuki (Admiral Akainu). Dengan demikian Spandine secara tidak langsung menyelamatkan Robin dari Buster Call.

CP6

Jerry

Jerry adalah agen CP6 yang menyertai perjalanan CP9 ke Ennies Lobby. Jerry memiliki tubuh yang sangat tinggi, kakinya saja sudah lebih dari pintu kereta api. Dia harus membungkuk terus selama di kereta api laut Puffing Tom.

Jerry adalah ahli karate dari pulau Karate di South Blue dan dianggap sebagai juara tinju. Karena ruangannya terlalu sempit ketika melawan Sanji, Jerry menggunakan jurus Yoga agar tangan dan kakinya bisa leluasa. Tetapi dia dikalahkan dengan satu tendangan oleh Sanji.

CP7

Wanze

Wanze adalah agen CP7 di gerbong masakan Puffing Tom dan seorang koki seperti Sanji. Wanze punya wajah yang samasekali bodoh. Wajah itu tidak pernah berubah sekalipun dia terkejut atau takut. Wanze sedikit berdarah tinggi dan tidak mau diganggu.

Wanze dapat membuat mi ramen melalui hidung cukup dengan memasukkan tepungnya saja ke mulut. Gaya bertarung Wanze dengan menggunakan baju dari mi ramen yang membuat Sanji tersangkut didalamnya. Wanze dikalahkan Sanji dengan memotong-motong bajunya dengan pisau dan menendang wajah bodohnya sehingga berubah menjadi wajah yang tampan, dengan memakai jurus manipulasi struktur tulang manusia "PARAGE SHOT".

Enam Wujud CP9

Enam Wujud (Rokushiki) adalah enam kemampuan dan tekhnik khusus CP9 yang menjadikan mereka pembunuh kejam yang keberadaannya dirahasiakan.

Shigan

Artinya peluru jari. Shigan dapat mengubah jari telunjuk para anggota CP9 menjati seperti peluru pistol. Hanya dengan menempelkan jari mereka ke musuh, maka efek kerusakannya seperti tertembak peluru.

Variasi

  • Ranyaku Sen (Garis): Digunakan oleh Nero dan Kaku, gelombang rankyaku tidak melengkung melainkan lurus kedepan.
  • Rankyaku Ran (Perang): Digunakan oleh Kaku, setelah melontarkan diri ke atas, Kaku menendang berkali-kali dan menghasilkan ribuan gelombang. Lebih kecil daripada gelombang normal.
  • Rankyaku Hakurai (Kilat Putih): Digunakan oleh Kaku, gelombang rankyaku akan menghasilkan ledakan lebih besar.
  • Rankyaku Amanedachi(putaran): Digunakan oleh Kaku dalam wujud setengah jerapah, Kaku melakukan handstand dan memutarkan kakinya berkali-kali hingga Rankyaku menjadi gelombang besar yang melingkar. Rankyaku ini membelah menara keadilan menjadi dua.
  • Rankyaku Rodan (Belitan Naga) : Digunakan Oleh Kaku Dalam Wujud setengah jerapah. Kaku Mehantamkan Kedua Kakinya Ke Arah Atas, Karena Menggunakan Dua Kaki, Gelombang Yang Dihasilkan Menjadi Lebih Besar Sehingga Bisa Menahan Jurus Iai Milik Roronoa Zoro.

Trafalgar Law "One Piece"

Trafalgar Law is the captain and doctor of the Heart Pirates, a pirate crew from the North Blue, and one of eleven pirates who have been referred to as "The Eleven Supernovas" on Sabaody Archipelago whose bounties are higher than Bsymbol.gif100,000,000 when the Straw Hats arrived in the place. He has the fifth highest bounty in the Eleven Supernovas. Law, like many other pirates, also dreams of finding One Piece.



Statistics
Japanese Name: トラファルガー・ロー
Romanized Name: Torafarugā Rō
English Name: Trafalgar Law
First Appearance: Chapter 498; Episode 392
Affiliations: Heart Pirates
Occupations: Pirate; Captain; Doctor
Epithet: Surgeon of Death (死の外科医 Shi no Gekai)
Japanese VA: Hiroshi Kamiya
Birthday: October 6th[1]
Bounty: Bsymbol10.gif200,000,000

Appearance

Law is a slim man of average height. As for his facial features, he has faint shadows right under both eyes and his mouth is constantly seen in a smile. He has black hair, a majority of which is obscured, save for his equally-dark sideburns on the sides of his face and his small black goatee, by the northern-style fur hat that Law wears, which is white and has spots on the bottom and along the rim.

He is seen wearing a black-sleeved yellow hoodie with his Jolly Roger out on the front of his chest and the sleeves rolled up. Law also sports a pair of jeans with odd markings on both the knee and ankle areas, similar to the ones on his hat, but darker in colour, and a pair of dark, pointed shoes. He also sports a pair of small earrings on each ear.

He has many tribal-style tattoos on his arms; on his left hand, in particular, are the letters D, E, A, T, and H tattooed in black each on the back of his fingers. Originally in the manga, only his thumb was not tattooed, with the letter A missing. Later on, all of his fingers were tattooed complete with all five letters.

Law also carries along a nodachi which he uses in conjunction with his Devil Fruit powers. It is a large sword with an oblong-shaped hand-guard coated with short white fur, sheated in a black scabbard decorated by white crosses from the opening to the bottom, and with a small piece of red rope tied near its opening. Due to its size, Law usually carries this sword over his shoulder (in contrast to the other sword-wielding characters in the series, who either carry theirs on their hips or over their backs); yet in other times, he delegates one of his crewmates (namely Bepo) to carry this sword for him.


Personality

That's the guy from North Blue, with the Bsymbol.gif200,000,000.. Trafalgar Law... I've heard rumors about him, and they weren't pleasant. His manners aren't too good either...

— Kid about Law

Law is an extremely laid-back character, who is nearly always seen smiling (although not with a huge grin, like fellow Supernova Urouge). He also has a more reckless attitude when faced against other pirates that the World Government has labeled as a higher threat. For example, he casually asked X. Drake how many people he had slain in his very first appearance, and had no qualms about flipping off Eustass Kid, the most wanted Supernova on the Archipelago (even smiling defiantly when doing so). However, he hates being ordered around, as evidenced of his frown and following reply when Kid told him and Monkey D. Luffy to stay back as he would hold off the attacking Marines. He is, however, capable of knowing when he and his immediate Crew are in a pinch, and is not above resorting to forging brief alliances with rivals for survival. He speaks in a politely sarcastic manner. He appears to be honorable enough to refuse taking credit that is due to others. This is seen when he replied to Jean Bart that his gratitude is also deserved by Luffy when the former slave offered his gratitude to the Pirate Captain.

Law has displayed a more competitive side about him in the anime where he, along with Kid and Luffy, got into a childish argument about who gets to take down the marines stationed just outside the Human Auctioning House when the three Supernovas came out to confront them. In contrast, he does not seem as eager to reach the New World as the other Supernova crews are, believing that One Piece will still be there regardless while the other crews fight amongst themselves, and that he needs to steal the throne "properly". This cautiousness proved to Luffy's advantage, since Law was one of the few people who knew what really happened to the Straw Hat Captain after the aftermath of the War on the Summit

Law also appears to have a sense of honor (or at least respect for those he sees as potential rivals in the future), which is seen when he appears at Marineford and claims he will help Luffy, because it would be "too lame" if his future enemy were to die. This is in stark contrast to what most people seemed to think about him, since Scratchmen Apoo claimed that Law was infamous for his cruelty.

Law is also very blunt when responding to people. Such occasions include when Ivankov asked if Law was a friend of Luffy, to which he replied "no," and even offered to make an excuse to make Ivankov feel better about him saving Luffy. Soon after, a wounded Jinbe went to thank him, only for Law to reply that Jinbe would die if he didn't sleep. Later when Jinbe asked what would happen to Luffy if he was allowed to run rampant while still wounded, Law replied that the outcome was simple: Luffy's wounds would open up and he would die.

Relationships

Crew

He is very open to new crewmates when he asks the ex-slave Pirate Captain Jean Bart to join. It has been shown that his crew is very admiring of Law, as they abide by his orders regardless of what they are.

Bepo

He also has a bear crew member Bepo, who is a master of martial arts. He and Bepo seem to have a close relationship, as Bepo does not object to Law reclining on his soft body.

Jean Bart

Law met the Pirate Captain-turned slave Jean Bart right after parting ways with both Luffy and Kid during the Tenryuubito Incident, where rather than heading immediately back to the Heart Pirates vessel, Law instead retreated back to the Auction House where Jean Bart was, and with his World Noble masters put out of action, Law invited Bart to be part of his Crew, to which the latter immediately agreed, expressing his gratitude, with Law only replying that he should give half his thanks towards Luffy. He appears to be quite loyal towards his liberator, executing any command Law may issue to the best of his ability

Rivals/Enemies

As a Supernova, he sees the other Bsymbol.gif100,000,000+ bounty rookies he encountered in the Sabaondy Archipelago as his rivals, though he seems to be focused more on Kid and especially Luffy. He, Kid, and Luffy have all agreed to meet again in the New World.

Monkey D. Luffy

Law first encountered Luffy in the Human Auctioning House where the latter gained his attention after striking down a Tenryuubito in front of everyone; Law, like Kid, could only smile at Luffy's defiance of the consequences. He seems to have some respect for Luffy, as shown after defeating the marines outside the Human Auction House. Also, he and his crew traveled to Marineford during the Whitebeard War to assist with Luffy's escape, and then later administer life-saving treatment to the Straw Hat. As he said, while Luffy would one day be his enemy, an enemy relationship is still a relationship and that it would be a "damned shame" for Luffy to die at Marineford.

Eustass Kid

In comparison to Luffy, Law's interactions with Eustass Kid were nowhere near as hospitable. In the manga, he flipped Kid the finger when Law (presumably) overheard Kid talking behind his back regarding rumors of how Law's manners appear to be rather lacking. Later on, when Kid volunteered to deal with the Marines amassing outside of the Auctioning House as a farewell gift to Rayleigh as well as the Straw Hats and the Heart Pirates, both Law and Luffy took Kid's cockiness as an insult and opted to follow him outside in order to compete with the fellow super rookie. When Kid insisted that he alone is sufficient enough for the task and orders the other two to step down, Law was the first to retaliate by stating he'll take Kid out first should he order him about one more time. Nevertheless, he sided once again with Kid after the two crews were confronted by a Pacifista

X. Drake

It is possible that he personally knows his fellow Supernova X. Drake, most likely because of the fact that both of them came from North Blue. Also, when first seeing him on the Archipelago he casually asked him how many people he had slain.

Abilities and Powers

Law prepares for a surgery, as seen in the anime.
GMTailsAdded by GMTails

Law is a fearsome pirate who, along with most of his crew, proved resistant to Rayleigh's burst of Haki that took out almost everyone in the Auction house. He is also apparently quite fearless, as he allowed several Marines to get within close-range of him on Sabaody Archipelago, despite being a long-range fighter.

He has earned the nickname "Surgeon of Death" due to his medical powers in addition to his formidable combat abilities. He appears to be considerably skilled as a doctor, as he was able to treat Monkey D. Luffy and Jinbe right after both of them barely escaped a murderous Akainu that left them, particularly the former, on the brink of death. The mere fact that he was able to stabilize Jinbe's condition strongly hints that Law's medical expertise is not limited to human anatomy alone.

Devil Fruit

Merchandise
Law using "Room: Shambles".
Buh6173Added by Buh6173

Law is a possessor of a Devil Fruit that allows him to create a spherical territory of light blue aura. In this territory, he is capable of separating and spatially displacing anything and everything inside. With his powers, he is capable of making it seems like he can swiftly slice people up into pieces from a distance with his sword. He can also attach separated parts in any manner he sees fit, such as sticking someone's head to a barrel. People separated by this ability aren't killed, and can still feel their separated parts, regardless of the distance they were separated from each other (much like Buggy when he separates himself using the Bara Bara no Mi). The effect persists even after Law disengages the sphere. How, or even if, the separated parts can be reassembled is unclear. It also seems that he can switch people's places as he did with Jean Bart and Bepo to protect the latter from a Pacifista.

The weakness of the technique seems to be the concentration required to maintain it. Law appears to be unable to move around while the technique is active without nullifying it. The ability also seems to require him to gesture with his hands to centralize the effects upon its victims. The full extent of this ability remains unknown at this time. Other than that, he has the same standard weaknesses as all Devil Fruit users.

He also seems to be able to make a smaller area, circling just below his hand, seen when he was prepared to fight one of the Pacifista alongside Eustass Kid. What this technique is has yet to be determined,though seeing as how his Room is formed, it can be used to make a quicker Room.

In One Piece: Gigant Battle's opening, he is seen creating a small area around his body to protect himself from attacks.

Attacks

  • Room (ルーム, Rūmu): Law creates a spherical space around his targets, which is then used for the next attack, which can be Shambles. In the Viz Manga this attack is also called Room. This was first seen used against some Marines during the escape from the Human Auction House.
    • Shambles (シャンブルズ, Shanburuzu): Within the space created from Room, Law can separate the limbs of his targets and rearrange them to his likings, causing massive confusion for his opponents. Law can also use this to re-direct incoming projectiles. An example is when he displaced a decapitated Marine's head for a cannonball coming toward him, attaching the ball of iron back to where the Marine's head used to be. This was first seen being used against some Marines during the escape from the Human Auction House. In the Viz Manga this attack is also called Shambles.

Weapons

Law's choice of weapon is a large version of the typical Japanese sword type known as nodachi. He appears to be quite skilled with it, being able to slice up targets from a distance (although this effect may be attributed to his Devil Fruit power).

History



Sabaody Archipelago Arc

Like the other Supernovas, he was first shown having arrived at the Archipelago with his crew before heading for the New World. He was the final Supernova to be introduced, seen sitting on a crate as X Drake, another Supernova, passed by after having broken up a fight between Urouge and Killer, before he asked how many people Drake had slain (in the anime, he was apparently on the scene moments before Drake appeared, clearly enjoying the fight between Urouge and Killer).

Later, Eustass Kid observed him in the Auction House on Grove 1, where he revealed that what he had heard about Law was not very pleasant. Law replied with flipping him off, causing Kid to note that Law was lacking manners. As the auctioning continued, Law only observed in boredom.

After Monkey D. Luffy attacked one of the World Nobles, he was seen smiling at the reckless action that his fellow Supernova had performed. A short while after, Law revealed to Luffy that the auction house was surrounded by Marines, since the Archipelago was so close to Marine Headquarters (although Luffy was more interested in the bear who was with Law).

Law, Luffy and Kid confront the Marines.
Buh6173Added by Buh6173

Later, after Silvers Rayleigh had knocked out the majority of the soldiers standing in the pirates way, he was seen still standing, along with his crew, the Straw-Hats, Kid, Killer, and their crew as well. As the Straw-Hats and Rayleigh prepare to leave the Auction House before the admiral show up, Kid told Luffy and Law to stay back as he would hold off the Marine grunts, much to both Law's and Luffy's annoyance (Law even went as far as to tell Kid that he would finish him off too if he ordered him around again). Then, the trio demonstrated their Devil Fruit powers to hold off the Marines, Law utilizing a field where he replaced a grunt's head with a cannon ball fired at him. As the fight continued, Law was busy with switching around the Marine soldiers body parts in order to confuse them and beat them.

Later, when the trio had defeated the first wave, Law noted that Luffy had shrunk due to the side-effects of Gear 3rd. After everyone had exited the Auction House, the Marines began a heavier assault on the pirates. At that moment, when Luffy proclaimed that he will be the one to find One Piece (which caught Law's and Kid's attention), Kid told Law and Luffy that the three would meet each other in the New World, to which Law only smiled. Then, as a bigger Marine grunt tried to attack him, he ordered his bear companion, Bepo, to attack them, but he was done fighting. Before he exited the scene, he recruited Captain Jean Bert, a former slave of Saint Roswald, into his crew, to which the captain accepted whole-heartedly, although Law told him that half of the thanks would have to go to "Mister Straw Hat".

Law and Kid vs. Pacifista.
GenocyberAdded by Genocyber

Afterward he and his crew make an escape but come across the Kid Pirates fighting a Pacifista. Kuma attacks him with an energy blast but he manages to avoid it before he and Kid prepare to fight the Pacifista.[6] The events of this battle are not shown but him and his crew manage to escape the Pacifista and the Admiral.

Marineford arc

During the Whitebeard War, Law and his crew were initially present on the Sabaody Archipelago where the broadcast of Ace's execution was being shown. He was presumably watching the events at Marineford unfold, along with his fellow Supernovas, as he ordered Bepo and Jean Bart to set sail immediately after the broadcast was cut.

Law and his crew arrive at Marineford.
KlobisAdded by Klobis

Towards the end of the battle, as Jinbe and Buggy fled the conflict with a critically injured Luffy, Law emerged from the ocean in his ship, a submarine. With Bepo and Jean Bart at his back, Law told Buggy that he is a doctor, and ordered him to hand over Luffy for medical treatment. He claimed that although Straw Hat may become an enemy of his in the future, Law would not allow that destiny to go unfulfilled by letting him die now.

As the war gets more intense, Law continues to tell Buggy to drop Luffy and Jinbe to his ship. Just as Buggy is about to, he is shot through his shoulder by Kizaru and throws them at Law's ship as he flees. As Jean Bart catches them he orders his crew to dive, but as soon as they're leaving, Kizaru shows up and tries to capture them. Luckily, the distraction of Coby and the Red Hair Pirates allows them to leave the battle ground. But before his vessel could fully submerge, Buggy, who was convinced by Shanks to help return his hat back to Luffy (for a treasure map that the Yonkou was supposedly willing to give in exchange for Buggy's services), threw Luffy's signature hat at the submarines opening hatch right before Law sealed it off, and was promptly caught by Law. He then commenced to supervising Luffy and Jinbe's medical treatment while putting the Straw Hat on the side table, as the submarine is evading Aokiji's Ice Age and Kizaru's Yasakani no Magatama.

Post-War Arc

Later, as Boa Hancock and Emporio Ivankov arrive with a Marine battleship, he comes outside from the sub and informs them that he has done all he can and that Luffy is still in critical condition. When asked by Ivankov if he was a friend of Luffy he replies that he isn't and that he also has no obligation to save him. He offers to make an excuse as to why he is treating Luffy, only for Ivankov to state that he didn't need to as Law was only following his instincts. Jinbe then wakes up and thanks Law for saving him and Luffy, only for Law to bluntly tell Jinbe to go to sleep or he would die.

After his crew's arrival at Amazon Lily he told Jinbe that if Luffy kept struggling his wounds will open back up and he might die this time. Later he was seen looking at Luffy's straw hat with a curious look on his face.

After a little while he and his crew see Silvers Rayleigh take down a sea king and swim ashore. He tells them he was hit by a storm, but Law's crew is baffled about a storm on the Calm Belt (only to realize it was actually a storm outside the Calm Belt). Law gives him the straw hat and sets sail. He then talks about Rayleigh and figuratively about the storm made by "D" with a grin on his face while he sails away.

He is seen again somewhere near Sabaody Archipelago, discussing with his crew why he doesn't want to enter the New World yet, saying that in any case the One Piece won't disappear and that the other pirates are free to fight each other without him. He then tells his men to follow the orders he gave them, in order for him to "steal the proper throne," to which his crew happily rejoices.

Anime and Manga Differences

Originally in the manga, Law has tattoos on only four of his fingers of his left hand. In the anime, all of the fingers have a tattoo. Later on in the manga, his fingers are all tattooed.

Originally in the manga, when Law met Kid in the auction house, he notably showed Kid his middle finger. In the anime, this was censored with Law simply giving Kid a smug look.

When Law, Kid, and their respective crews encountered a Pacifista, it is currently not specified whether this one was Kuma or not in the manga and are left with a cliffhanger. In the anime, this one was a regular Pacifista and the pirates were given some scenes fighting it. When it seemed that they defeated the Pacifista, it got back up and resumed its attack, essentially leaving the same cliffhanger as in the manga.

Trivia

  • Law's last name is derived from real life pirate Edward Low. Law's apparently infamous cruelty echoes Edward Low's own reputation for violently torturing victims before killing them.
  • Trafalgar is the name of a cape in the south-west of Spain. It's name is Arabic in origin, meaning "Western Cape." It was the site of a famous naval battle between the British and the French/Spanish fleet during the Napoleonic Wars, dubbed the Battle of Trafalgar. London's landmark Trafalgar Square is named for the battle, as is a class of submarines in the British Royal Navy.
  • Law uses the "smiley" style of Jolly Roger, as first seen used by Doflamingo. Unlike Doflamingo's smiley, his doesn't have a "cancel" sign across it. While the significance of the smilie is still unknown, this means whatever it represents, Law supports it.
  • According to the 4th Japanese Fan Poll, Law is the 10th most popular character in One Piece, making him the most popular Supernova excluding Luffy and Zoro.
  • The powers of Law's currently unnamed Devil Fruit is similiar to Buggy's Bara Bara no Mi, being able to split bodies in much the same manner. The difference between these two fruits is Law's ability to split other's bodies instead of his own (although it is still unknown whether Law actually can split his own body apart).
  • Law is one of the only captains shown in One Piece who has more than one job on his ship (he is also the doctor).
  • Law is the first character in the series to give someone the middle finger.
  • Law shares a birthday with Tashigi.
  • His yellow submarine might be inspired by The Beatles song of the same name.
