Needless

Needless is a pirate in the world of One Piece. He is a non-canon character, appearing in the fourth movie and is the right hand man of the movie's main antagonist, Gasparde.

Personality
Despite being Gasparde's right-hand man, Needless states that Gasparde is for him to kill, and he ignored his captain's orders not to damage the ship. Why this strained relationship is never revealed, but it may be due to Gasparde's way of treating his crew as "underlings".

Personality-wise, Needless is a quiet man who rarely speaks, and seems to be very silent when in his captain's presence, but appears merciless during combat. However, he is also somewhat respectful to strangers as he obeys Luffy when he is told to leave his straw hat alone.

Abilities and Powers


He fights with a pair of sharp, extendable claw weapons, and uses his quick speed to get close in on his opponent for a lethal blow. He also possess a high amount of strength as he was able to stop a ship's pedal with one hand. With his strength and speed combined with his claw weapon makes him a tough fighter.

History
Needless partook in the Dead End Race as a crew member of Gasparde Pirates; he threw a member over the balcony when Gasparde said that member was useless. When Shuraiya Bascùd revealed himself in an attempt to take Gasparde's head, Needless fought on behalf of his captain, but ignored orders of not to damage their own ship. He is taken out after a long fight (in which his right arm gets dislocated) by Shuraiya and knocked into the ocean. His fate afterwards is unknown.
