Z

"Z" is a New World pirate and the main antagonist of the One Piece Film Z.

Appearance
Z appears as a big and muscular man with short hair and a large mechanical right arm connected to the left hip with some mast rigging. He dresses in a Marine-like coat with his Jolly Roger impressed on it and large short trousers.



His Jolly Roger has a skull with slanted eye-sockets and a spiky crown, while his cross-bones is similar to an inverted Marine symbol and a cross or sword with a Yoru-like hilt. The placement of the skull on top of the inverted "wings" give the skull the appearance of elongated tusks.

Abilities and Powers
He is referred as being the strongest enemy that the Straw Hats have faced yet.

Trivia

 * More of his characteristics, like his coat or the Jolly Roger, reveal a link with the Marines. Also, in one of the first trailers, one of the film logos that appears is the original Marine symbol.
 * He shares many similarities with Shiki, the Golden Lion:
 * Both are the antagonists of movies overseen by Oda himself during the whole process.
 * Both also have remarkable protheses, with Shiki having two swords replacing his feets and Z, a huge mechanical arm.
 * Both characters have elements found in ships in their own bodies, with Shiki having a steering wheel on his head and Z having two mast rigging across his chest, possibly supporting his mechanical arm.
