Oimo

Oimo and Kāshī are the two giants that guarded the front gate of Enies Lobby.

Appearance
Oimo wears a viking costume, has a pig-like nose and he is fat.

Abilities and Powers
As a giant, Oimo is not only many times bigger then a normal human, but also equally many times stronger. As proven against the Kairiki Destroyers of the Franky Family, a mere human, no matter what the strength or size, will have no easy battle against them. Oimo and his partner Kāshī are natural born fighters. In the end it takes the efforts of the Galley-La's and Franky Family's best fighters, along with the help of Sodom and Gomorrah, to down both Oimo and his partner.

The World Government's Lie
They had joined and worked for the Government for 50 years only because they thought that the leaders of their clan were being held captive in prison. Oimo and Kāshī were promised that by serving the World Government, their leaders would be released.

The Assault on Enies Lobby
They fought against the Franky Family, Straw Hat Pirates, and Galley-La foremen as soon as the three groups invade the island. Kāshī falls first against the combined effort of the group who tricked Oimo into whacking him with his club. Oimo is defeated when Rocket Man, the prototype Sea Train, jumps from the gate of Ennies Lobby and crashes into him. The two are left as the attacking forces press forward. However, Usopp (still disguised as Sogeking), who had been accidentally left behind, hears them lament about their tragic existence. After this, he realizes their leaders were none other than Dorry and Brogy, whom the Straw Hats had met during the Little Garden arc. He told the two the real truth and how he had met them and proved this by showing Dorry and Brogy's unique laughs.



Angered at being deceived for 50 years, Oimo and Kāshī switched sides and swore vengeance upon the World Government and Naval forces that had kept them in the dark for so long. They arrived just in time to save the Franky Family from being overwhelmed by the marines when Yokozuna gets knocked out, as well as take over it in guarding the door to the inner courthouse, keeping the marines out — But not before flinging Sogeking up to the rooftop to rejoin the Straw Hats.

After the main battle is done, they carried Sodom and Gomorrah and the Franky Family out of the path of the impending Buster Call, and managed to escape on the Puffing Tom. Oimo and Kāshī later decide they can't go to Little Garden if their bosses are still fighting, so they are going back to Elbaf.

Translation and Dub Issues
Considering that the entire Little Garden arc was cut in the 4Kids version their leaders Dorry and Brogy never meet the Straw Hats; is unknown how 4Kids would have avoided the potential plot hole that was created in the process.
