CP0

CP0, more properly known as Cipher Pol Aigis Zero (サイファーポール"イージス"ゼロ) is the strongest intelligence organization among Cipher Pol, working directly under the World Nobles. They first appeared on Dressrosa near the bridge to Green Bit.

Due to their actions and role, they are major antagonists during the Levely Arc, the secondary antagonist group of the Wano Country Arc, and one of the central antagonist groups of the Dressrosa Saga, Whole Cake Island Saga, and Wano Country Saga.

Unnamed Members
Two unnamed members were shown in Dressrosa. They each wear white suits with dark ties and tribal masks. They appear abnormally tall, towering over the ordinary citizens of Dressrosa.


 * The shortest one wears a white bowler hat, a dark purple and blue polka dotted scarf, a white long coat, and what looks like a dark blue, light yellow-gold, red award ribbon on his blazer. He wears his tie loosely. He has a flat face with a thin mustache and beard, a scar under his light-colored right eye, and markings under his pure black left eye. What appears to be a mask seems more likely to be white make-up, as his mouth was moving while he addressed the people. He usually acts as a spokesperson for the organization as a whole. The Five Elders consider him to be one of their finest agents.


 * The tallest one has a brush-like, bluish-gray beard. He wears a long white robe which covers his whole body and a white beaded necklace with a light blue bead in the middle. His mask is dark red and has an angry expression, with black hair which is flat and dreadlock-like. He also appears in Heart of Gold and then later at Mary Geoise alongside Rob Lucci, Kaku and Stussy.

Overview
CP0 is the strongest of all Cipher Pol units, even surpassing the assassination specialists of CP9. Much is unknown about the agents and their abilities; however, the members of the group are shown to be masters of Rokushiki and are proficient in Haki as Lucci, Kaku, and Stussy learned Busoshoku and Kenbunshoku Haki. The agents who wear masks are among the most elite fighters of CP0, stated to be in a class of their own. A masked member of CP0 is easily capable of defeating even an Ancient Giant.

They work directly under the command of the World Nobles. They have strong intel over a myriad of subjects concerning the World Government, including the Artificial Devil Fruit Vegapunk created with Kaidou's Lineage Factor and X Drake's true allegiance.

Ships


CP0 is in possession of at least one battleship, which was used to transport three of the agents to Dressrosa. The ship features the words "AIGIS" and "CP0" painted on the sails alongside the World Government insignia. The organization also summoned an entire fleet of ships in their mission to take over Wano Country, but it is unknown whether all of these ships belong directly to CP0.

Dressrosa Arc


When word of Donquixote Doflamingo's supposed abdication of his throne and Warlord of the Sea position reached the citizens of Dressrosa, Doflamingo called CP0 to come and clear up the confusion. When they arrived, they told the people that the article printed in the newspaper was a mistake. They went on to explain that a new, amended report would be released at 3 p.m. that day. Finally, they asked the citizens not to discuss the rumors until the truth was released and to conduct usual activities as if nothing had happened.

Sometime after Trafalgar Law and the Straw Hat Pirates arrived at Dressrosa, the three agents walked by a northeastern café where they were seen by Law, Usopp, Nico Robin, and Caesar Clown.

Doflamingo revealed to Law that he was granted authority to command CP0 because he holds secret information about Mary Geoise's "national treasure", which will shake the world if its existence is revealed to the public.

After Doflamingo's defeat, Sabo stated that CP0 was returning to Dressrosa and they were after the revolutionaries.



Spandam, Kaku, Rob Lucci, and Hattori arrived there days later. They received a message telling them that all weapons from the underground port were taken. They suspected the Revolutionary Army to be behind the incident.

Heart of Gold
While escorting Myskina Olga, the red mask wearing member was interrogating her about the Pure Gold. When the Treasure Pirates attacked, he tried to take Olga to safety, but his way was blocked by Mad Treasure. The two engaged in battle, which allowed Olga to escape. Treasure then knocked out the CP0 member before chasing after her.

One Piece Film: Gold
Spandam came to Gran Tesoro, where he received a magnificent payment from Gild Tesoro in order to bring his forces to Gran Tesoro and help Tesoro's crew deal with the Straw Hat Pirates. Lucci reported to Sakazuki about Marine involvement in Gran Tesoro. Sakazuki was angry that they were helping a pirate, but Lucci replied that the Marines had their own motives.

The next night, as the Straw Hats and the citizens of Gran Tesoro were battling Tesoro's crew, Spandam prepared to finish Luffy off, but Rikka blocked Spandam's strike, giving Luffy enough time to free himself and punch Spandam, defeating him. Lucci and a Marine fleet attacked Gran Tesoro, intending to destroy it despite the call for help from the World Nobles on board as well as the innocent people. However, Sabo suddenly appeared and stopped the bombardment. Lucci then turned into his leopard hybrid form, and the two clashed. The two battled until Gild Tesoro's defeated body fell in between them, and Lucci took his leave from the battle.

Whole Cake Island Arc
Stussy went undercover as one of the emperors of the Underworld and attended the wedding ceremony for one of the daughters of Charlotte Linlin.

When Du Feld attempted to steal the Tamatebako, Stussy confronted him and questioned him of his intentions. Surprised by her sudden appearance, he fell down to where the Tamatebako had fallen to earlier. As he was about to open the chest, Stussy shot him down with a Tobu Shigan. Stussy stated that the World Government would have better use of the item before telling an eavesdropping Morgans to fabricate a story with Du Feld as the culprit of its theft. Morgans begrudgingly complied but demanded to see the contents of the Tamatebako first. She agreed, but Du Feld's unconscious body knocked over the chest, sending it to the base of the Whole Cake Chateau. The Tamatebako, which held a bomb, detonated and the explosion caused the Whole Cake Chateau to collapse. As the chateau toppled, Stussy managed to avoid harm using Geppo.

As the Big Mom Pirates chased the Straw Hats throughout Totto Land, Stussy waited with Morgans near Charlotte Mont-d'Or's operating center. She then informed them about the Tamatebako being the cause of the explosion and heard their plan of vengeance, before leaving with Morgans. Aboard Morgans' balloon, she talked about Morgans' support of Monkey D. Luffy and his prediction regarding the Worst Generation.

Levely Arc


The day before the Levely began, Charlos tried to take Princess Shirahoshi as his pet. When Leo and Sai tried to save her, they were blocked by Lucci's team. When Neptune prepared to attack Charlos despite the threat of striking a World Noble, Charlos ordered Lucci to kill him. However, Donquixote Mjosgard arrived and knocked out Charlos, defusing the event, and ordered the release of Shirahoshi.

One Piece: Stampede
Rob Lucci infiltrated the Pirates Festival on Delta Island in order to retrieve the Pirate King's treasure, an Eternal Pose to Laugh Tale. After Douglas Bullet devastates the island with his ability, he reveals that he currently possesses it. When Luffy, along with Trafalgar D. Water Law, Boa Hancock, Buggy, Sabo and Smoker challenged Bullet's colossus, Lucci was observing at a distance, even helping out once. When Bullet was finally exposed, Lucci attempted to use this opportunity to seize the treasure but he was stopped by Sanji. After Luffy got the treasure, he attempted to ambush the Straw Hat captain, however Luffy unhesitatingly destroyed the Eternal Pose right in front of his eyes, before Law used his ability to help the pirates escape. In the aftermath, Lucci was seen alongside other agents, taking a call on a Den Den Mushi.

Wano Country Arc
With Doflamingo's defeat and arrest, the World Government was having a hard time acquiring more weapons that originated from Wano Country through their primary intermediate. As a result, CP0 agents went directly to Wano to negotiate with Shogun Kurozumi Orochi. Orochi accepted their payment in the form of warships, but informed them that if another trade were to happen, Vegapunk would be required as payment. The agents found the request to be an impossibility and in response, Orochi shot one of the members (who was not injured by any more than a simple recoil) and mocked them that he had Kaidou backing him, and therefore was not afraid of the World Nobles nor the Marines.



The CP0 agents were later invited to Onigashima on Orochi's behalf for the Fire Festival. During the raid led by the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance, the agents lamented on Orochi's death and analyzed the state of the conflict. With the assistance of a human Mary, they used a Go board to illustrate the forces of the two sides.

Later, the leader thought back to when Kaidou had been captured by the Marines and how Dr. Vegapunk experimented on his Lineage Factor, thus creating an artificial Devil Fruit. The World Government wanted him to give the fruit to them, but Vegapunk considered it a failure and refused, leaving it on Punk Hazard. One of the other agents asked why he was bringing this up now since Punk Hazard was destroyed, but the leader said that he hoped the fruit was destroyed as well despite the G-5 reporting that one facility was still operational.

Later the CP0 spokesman questions why they refuse to surrender based on the defeat of Monkey D. Luffy, then he is informed of the current situation, where he is informed that 3,000 of his soldiers are incapacitated, indicating that the difference in forces is 24,000 against 3,000 and that the Pleasures and Waiters rebelled against Queen changing sides approximately 4,000 soldiers and that the battle had turned into a 20,000 against 7,000.

When the Mary expressed her confusion after Tama activated her Kibi Kibi no Mi ability, the CP0 agent was puzzled by her reaction, until he learned about the betrayal. The agents rearranged the Go board as the numbers on the alliance's side had risen to 9,000 while the Beasts Pirates fell to 16,000. They then started talking about ensuring Who's-Who's death, as he was a former Government agent who was imprisoned for a failure before escaping. Though one of them considered leaving him alone as he was not a big security threat due to having outdated information, the others denied this as they believed his betrayal going unpunished would set a bad precedent. However, they did not think his chances of living were high as the Tobiroppo was facing the former Warlord, Jinbe.



The lead CP0 agent then received a call via Den Den Mushi from Rob Lucci, who told him that the World Government was planning on annexing Wano Country under their direct control if Kaidou loses. Lucci also told him that they had direct orders on capturing Nico Robin due to the danger she posed to the world, to which the lead agent complied. Two of the agents on Onigashima left their room and pursued Robin, defeating several minks who tried to stop them. Brook then carried Robin over a ledge, and the agents chased after them to the second basement floor of Kaidou's castle. As the agents jumped down towards Robin and Brook, they were engulfed by Kurozumi Kanjuro's Kazenbo, but emerged unscathed.



When Scratchmen Apoo began photographing the agents for Morgans, one of the agents stabbed him with Shigan, causing the pirate to fall to the ground. The agent then confronted X Drake and attacked him; however, Apoo, who had survived the attack, hit the agent with his Devil Fruit powers, saving Drake. They then allied themselves against the two government agents.

However, they were no match for the agents, who easily defeated Zanki and X Drake (although they pointed out he put up a good fight) while forcing Apoo and Inbi to abandon the fight and flee. They then received the call from their third member, reminding them of their mission to capture Nico Robin while also informing them of the All-Stars' defeat at the hands of the alliance. However, one agent pointed out there were still two Emperors to defeat, but should they fall at the hand of the new generation, this would set the course for the times to come.

They would, shortly thereafter, encounter Izou on the Basement Floor and although they pointed out that they'd normally not let the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates run freely, they would return to their initial task of capturing Nico Robin and dealing with the Straw Hats. As they were already bidding goodbye to the former 16th division commander, walking past him, Izou however told them to stop. Maha got into combat with Izou causing a double knockout. After Maha's knockout, the CP0 boss receives a call from a partner saying that they received a direct order from the Gorousei, telling them to immediately eliminate "Straw Hat" Luffy to prevent him from defeating Kaidou. However, the boss said that it would be impossible, even going as far as to ask why he had to interfere in the Kaidou fight, knowing the repercussion from his interference. Unbeknownst to him, Drake got up, going after him to stop him. However, Drake pierces the spokesman, saying that this is his form of justice, to which the nameless agent replies to him that he envies his conviction before using Shigan against Drake, piercing him in the neck before eventually appearing on the roof and using Tekkai to interfere in the battle against Monkey D. Luffy and Kaidou by holding Luffy back, causing the emperor to win the battle, much to his dismay. Knowing that there would be consequences from interfering, the agent only tipped his hat as he prepared himself to be struck by Kaidou's rage, which resulted in him being struck by his kanabo, as another agent in the castle also tipped his hat upon hearing the strike. Following Luffy's survival and rematch against Kaidou, the remaining agent departed from Onigashima via the Geppo.

After escaping from there, Guernica contacted the Five Elders recounting details of the battle, suggesting the capture of Nico Robin, Guernica nervously nods before being assaulted.

Trivia

 * The "Aigis" in "Cipher Pol Aigis Zero" may be derived from the Aegis, a mythological shield associated with Zeus and Athena shown as a short goatskin cloak. Athena's aegis is usually shown with a border of snakes and with the head of Medusa in the center. It is more an emblem of protection and power than an actual military shield.
 * The three unidentified CP agents who met Carmel wear white outfits and tribal masks, features they share with most of other CP0 agents, although they are not confirmed as members of it.
 * Stussy and Kaku are the only CP0 agents to not wear any mask so far.
 * Spandam is the only CP0 agent to wear a non-tribal nor carnival mask, as he actually has a white version of his old one.
 * Kaku wore a mask as a CP9 agent, making Stussy the only agent who has never been seen wearing a mask.
 * CP0 is written as "CP AISIS 0" in One Piece Volume 777.
 * Two of the unnamed members (the agents wearing the bowler hat and the red mask) were voiced by Katsumi Suzuki.
 * In Wano, the three agents present are voiced by Hiromu Miyazaki, Taro Yamaguchi, and Takurou Nakakuni, although it is not clear which is which.
