Tsumegeri Guards

The Tsumegeri Guards (ツメゲリ部隊), or Elite Alabastan Royal Guards, were four men who drank the Hero Water and attempted to take down Crocodile, but failed and died from the water's side effects shortly after Crocodile refused to even fight them to give them an honorable death.

Appearance
The Tsumegeri Guards wore the armor similar to the regular Alabasta Royal Guards but with the addition of a turban with a duck headband and wings on each sides. They wear what appears to be war paint, with one line that goes down to the nose as their common mark.

Abilities and Powers
All members are seen carrying a large sword or axe, though it is unknown how skilled they actually are.

History
The Tsumegeri Guards appeared in the court yard of Alubarna Palace shortly after Crocodile explained his plan of obtaining Pluton to Cobra, Vivi, and Chaka. They demand that Crocodile release the king and refuse to leave despite Cobra's order not to anger Crocodile and the latter's offer to let them leave in recognition of their spirit. Instead the Tsumegeri Guards unleash the power of the Hero Water, breaking their bracelets just by bracing their muscles.

Stating that they must let Crocodile know the countries pain and anger they charge at him all at once and even manage to hit him but he dissolves into sand and remains unaffected by the attack. It is then that the Hero Water's side effect kicks in, they all collapse and die.

When Crocodile starts laughing and commenting on the stupidity of their actions, Chaka gets furious and attacks Crocodile himself.
