Abilities and Powers
Kaneshiro is a shipwright capable of fixing and building ships. As a fishman, Kaneshiro is several times stronger than an average human. However, while he is strong, Kaneshiro is a generic lackey when compared to the stronger members of Arlong's crew.

Past
Kaneshiro was once part of the Sun Pirates, but, after Tiger died and the crew split up, he joined Arlong and several other fishmen on his quest to set up a Fishman Empire in East Blue.

Arlong Park Arc
Taking over the various villages of Commi Island as a start, they built Arlong Park. After eight years of rule over the island, Kaneshiro, while accompanying Arlong on one of his excursions, witnessed Usopp bluntly shoot at Arlong.

After this little incident, several events happened leading up to a battle within Arlong Park between the Arlong Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates. At the very start of this battle, Kaneshiro and a majority of his fellow crew mates were taken out by Luffy. Though Kaneshiro's captain and three other of his crew mates were able to avoid the attack, they were eventually defeated by the Straw Hats. With his fellow crew mates defeated, Kaneshiro and the rest of them were delivered to the Marines and sent to prison.

Trivia

 * Kaneshiro (金城) means "gold city", the 'gold' part may be referring to his goldfish species.
