Hound[2] is a Marine Vice Admiral and one of the nine that took part in the Egghead Incident.[1]
Appearance[]
Hound is a tall man with messy hair and square jaw and wears glasses with pointed ends and lipstick. He also wears a pinstripe double-breast suit with a dark suit and tie underneath it and a pair of black gloves. As a high-ranking officer he wears a Justice coat draped over his shoulders.[3]
Personality[]
Hound has a practical mind, as he is willing to delay drastic Marine actions such as a Buster Call in favor of addressing more pressing issues.[2] However, he is also reluctant to believe ideas that come across as outlandish, such as the idea that the world could sink into the sea.[4]
Abilities and Powers[]
As a Vice Admiral, he has authority over lower-ranking Marines. He, along with four other Vice Admirals, can be given command of ten battleships for a Buster Call.
Haki[]
It was stated that all vice admirals possess Haki,[5] so Hound can also use the ability.
History[]
Final Saga[]
Egghead Arc[]
When the World Government had ordered to eliminate Vegapunk, Hound, alongside Jaygarcia Saturn, Kizaru, and eight other Vice Admirals, led a Marine fleet to besiege the island of Egghead.[1][3]
Saturn ordered a Buster Call on Egghead, prompting the Marines to evacuate.[6] During the attack, the Pacifista under Bonney's command were attacking the ships. Hound considered calling off the Buster Call as it would be a loss for the Marines to destroy the Pacifista.[2]
Hound and the Marines later listened to Vegapunk's message being broadcasted to the world. He was enraged at Vegapunk's prediction that the world will sink underwater, dismissing it as nonsense.[4]
Major Battles[]
- Marines, Five Elders and Cipher Pol vs. Straw Hat Pirates, SSG, Giant Warrior Pirates and their allies
Trivia[]
- A hound is a type of hunting dog. This follows the canine naming theme of some vice admirals.
