Hardy

Lieutenant Commander Hardy is a anime only Marine from East Blue, serving as a commander in the 8th Marine Division. He appears in the Warship Island Arc.

He is a subordinate of Commodore Nelson Royale. He appears in the Warship Island filler arc. He is sent after Apis, along with Eric. He takes the ship into the "mirror zone" and back, losing Eric for a while, to a seeming pleasure of the commander, who does not trust Eric. After Eric reappears, he is about to call off the operation, when Eric requests two rowers and a small boat. The commander gives them to Eric, who thereafter betrays Nelson.
