Vice Admiral



"Vice Admiral" (Chujo) is a naval rank of three star level, equivalent to Lieutenant General in seniority. A Vice Admiral is typically senior to a Rear admiral and junior to an Admiral.

The Vice-Admiral position is the third highest post in the navy and curently the one with most representatives seen in One Piece (before Captain (5)) ,besides common,unnamed grunt soldiers.In One Piece,one would think one can succeed to the post from the position of "Rear Admiral", however,no marine officer holding such a rank has been seen in all of One Piece to date.The highest seen position bellow a Vice-Admiral is that of a Commodore.

Their duties are different from those of comon marine commanders,as is for instance that of commanding 2 out of 10 Buster Call ships.However,one Vice-Admiral, John Giant is seen to have some special authority, as he was the first in the entiere Marine Headquarters to recieve the report of the Buster Call and could also evidently command other vice-admirals to dispatch.

The atire of a Vice-Admiral in One Piece is that of a marine coat with epaulets and a suit and tie worn bellow.The only Vice-Amiral to wear an atire different from the other is,again,John Giant,who wears a golden-read uniform with a strain of medals on his chest (the only see medaled officer in the navy so far)

At least six of them (John Giant,Momonga,Onigumo, Doberman,Strawberry and Yamakaji) are known to be stationed ín the Marine Headquarters.
