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.

Appearance
Needless is a tall, muscular man with short blonde hair and a pale complexion. He has black, wavy patterned tattoos on both his biceps, and a tattoo of x-crossed dark green sabers with black seagull wings and a hook-ended cross on his face. He wears a black a-shirt and pants, and two golden earrings on each ear.

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.

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, going as far as to casually toss aside a crew member deemed useless. 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
Needless is Gasparde's right-hand man, being one of the two main fighters of the Gasparde Pirates, and the second strongest of the crew, after his captain.

Needless' primary weapons is a pair of sharp, extendable hooked claw weapons, and he uses his speed to get close to his opponent for a lethal blow. He also possess a high amount of strength, casually throwing a crew member Gasparde declared useless over the balcony, and was able to stop a ship's pedal with one hand. He managed to continue fighting even when his arm was dislocated.

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.

Trivia
