Hardy

Lieutenant Commander Hardy is a anime only Marine from East Blue, serving as a commander in the 8th Marine Division. He appears in the Warship Island Arc.

He is a subordinate of Commodore Nelson Royale. He appears in the Warship Island filler arc. He is sent after Apis, along with Erik. He takes the ship into the "mirror zone" and back, losing Erik for a while, to a seeming pleasure of the commander, who does not trust Erik. After Erik reappears, he is about to call off the operation, when Erik requests two rowers and a small boat. The commander gives them to Erik, who thereafter betrays Nelson.
