One Piece Odyssey
Zaraza waited near the Nanohana entrance to the Sandy Desert when he was approached by the Straw Hat Pirates. They asked for directions to Rainbase, and Zaraza realized they've never been to the Sandy Desert before. He began explaining the directions, warning them to be careful of bandits in the desert, when his band of bandits attacked. The Straw Hats easily defeated the attacking group, but in the confusion Zaraza and his subordinates were able to take their supplies and escape.

Knowing that travelers will usually follow, Zaraza ran to the east wall of the desert, leaving a group of bandits there. He then returned to his hideout on the west side, satisfied that his theft was successful. However, he's soon surprised by the Straw Hats, who had defeated his decoy on the east side and found out about his hideout from there. He attempted to defeat the pirates, even calling on a Desert Bananawani he had made an agreement with. However, the Straw Hats easily defeated his band and the Bananawani, taking back their food and his stored treasure. As they left, he admitted he would likely give up on being a bandit, as the Desert Bananawani was the only reason the bandits listened to him..

Reunion of Memories
In the Arabasta Memoria where Crocodile took over, Zaraza is a Navi Bird keeper instead of a bandit. Due to a Juracho attack, he lost his birds, and collapsed outside Nanohana, where he was found by the Straw Hat Pirates. Chopper treated his wounds, and the pirates helped him find his birds in the desert.
