Stansen (Non-Canon)

Stansen is a member of the Phoenix Pirates. He temporarily takes command of the crew when their captain, Pazuru, is injured. For some as of yet unexplained reason, he and his fellow crewmates are in the service of the Achino Family. He apparently reports and takes orders from them through Salco.

History
When Stansen and his fellow pirates encounter the Strawhats, he received a call from Salco. Stansen then reported to Salco their current situation. Upon reporting to Salco, Stansen is ordered to deliver the Strawhats to the Achino Family.

Stansen then brings a barrel of wine to Thousand Sunny and states it is a reward for the Strawhats for saving him and his fellow pirates. While he and his fellow pirates dine with the Strawhats, Stansen invites the Strawhats over to their place so he and fellow pirates can properly thank their rescuers. Luffy accepts his invitation seeing as Stansen and his fellow pirates can't get back home either way.

Later after dinner, while the Strawhats supposedly sleep due to a drug that was placed in their food, Stansen and his fellow pirates discuss on what to do. The idea that they should use the Thousand Sunny to attack the Achino Family comes into discussion. Stansen however states that they should just follow orders and deliver the Strawhats to the Achino Family as they don't have any other choice. Just as Stansen and his fellow pirates were about to discuss any further, they were surprised by three of the Strawhats. It turned out that most of the Strawhats had noticed that their food were poisoned and only feigned sleep. Franky, Sanji, and Robin, being nearest in the area, confronted Stansen and his fellow pirates in the middle of their discussion.

With the three Strawhats infront of him and his fellow pirates, Stansen tried to reason with the Strawhats by stating that he and his comrades weren't anybody suspiscious to worry about. His lie however didn't convince the Strawhats. Seeing that they were in trouble, three of Stansen's fellow pirates, Gairu, Satton, and Bajiru, decided to attack the Strawhats. Stansen however slamed their leader, Gairu, onto the deck and stopped them before they could attack. Stansen then tried to reason some more. The rest of the Strawhats in the dinning hall of the Thousand Sunny, however, came out and confronted Stansen and his fellow pirates. With the situation getting worse, Stansen decided to just jump offboard the Thousand Sunny and retreat back to their ship. His fellow pirates also followed his lead.

Back on their ship, Stansen reported to Salco about what just happened. For this, Stansen was reprimanded by Salco. He was then told that he and his fellow pirates were to just to stay there and provide backup when the Achino Family's forces arrived.
