Nezumi

Captain Nezumi (ネズミ大佐) is a Marine captain of the 16th Branch, in East Blue. Due to his actions, he can be considered the secondary antagonist of the Arlong Arc.

Appearance
Nezumi has the appearance of a rat ("nezumi" is Japanese for both "mouse" and "rat"). He has whiskers, and rat ears attatched to his marine cap. He also has brown hair. Unlike other Marines he has a greyish-blue button up coat that goes down to his feet, with a black belt and blue shoulderpads.

Personality
His appearance and manners are rodent-like and he appears to be arrogant, cowardly, and decidedly corrupt.

Arlong Arc
Nezumi accepted bribes from Arlong in exchange for keeping Arlong's crew out of Marine jurisdiction. Acting on a tip from Arlong, he uncovered the treasure that Nami had been hoarding in order to buy back Cocoyasi Village, and confiscates it from her.



Once Arlong is defeated, Nezumi attempts to intervene against the Straw Hat Pirates, but is quickly defeated, along with the Marines he brought with him, by Zoro. Then Nami quickly attacks him with her staff for destroying the orange grove and shooting Nojiko. She then forces him to return the stolen money, rebuild Gosa Village, and clean up all the mess left over from Arlong's reign.

He was last seen reporting to his superiors on the incident, prompting the Marines to assign Luffy with his first bounty. However, he wasn't pleased with the wanted poster picture, as it doesn't make Luffy look dangerous.

Trivia

 * His Marine code is 00733.
