==Personality==
 
Zambai was originally a thug in the past who wished to be a shipwright. Once he met Franky, he came to deeply respect him and calls him "Aniki" just like the other Franky Family members. He even wanted Franky to be happy and go with the [[Straw Hat Pirates|Straw Hats]] and cried uncontrollably while seeing him off. While showing fear on some instances, Zambai can show bravery for the sake of his loved ones, such as willing to go to Enies Lobby to save Franky and even ally with the Straw Hats who were once enemies and beat him up showing he can be a forgiving person. He has a strong respect for the crew and calls them nicknames with "Aniki" at the end of them and even regrets beating up Usopp for the money they had. Zambai also has a childish side, as he and and other members of the Franky Family and Galley-La Company played "Straw Hats" by pretending to be them and imitated them fighting the Aqua Laguna and the Sea Train.
 
 
==Abilities and Powers==
 
In terms of fighting ability, Zambai seems more competent than most members of the Franky Family in both melee and long range combat. He helped to defeat [[Kashi]], and was able to fight toe-to-toe against [[Baskerville]] (all three) before he, the [[Galley-La Company]] and the rest of the Franky Family were cornered by the [[Marines]].
 
 
===Weapons===
 
He is armed with a bazooka and a pair of katanas. He is quite skilled in using them.
 
 
===Attacks===
 
* {{Nihongo|'''Bazooka Bat'''|バズーカバット|Bazūka Batto}}: Zambai uses his bazooka to strike the enemy at melee range.
 
* {{Nihongo|'''Kaitai Buttagiri'''|解体ぶった斬り|Kaitai Buttagiri|literally "Dismantling Cut"}}: Zambai uses a sword and slashes his opponents vertically, attempting to cut them in half. In the FUNimation dub, this is called '''Dismantler Chop'''.{{qref|chap=399|p=5&6|ep=284|text=Zambai uses Kaitai Buttagiri on Baskerville.}}
 
 
==History==
 
===Past in the Slums===
 
[[File:Young Zambai.png|thumb|140px|left|Zambai witnessing Puffing Tom's departure.]]
 
During the opening day of the [[Puffing Tom]], a young Zambai was seen amongst the crowd.{{qref|name=Young Zambai|sbs=38|page=146|text=Oda explains that Zambai also joined the event along with Paulie, Mozu, and Kiwi.}} Inspired by this event, Zambai tried to become a shipwright. He however failed and instead became a gang boss of the back streets of Water 7.
 
 
He and his gang were then found and defeated by Franky when he entered their turf. Afterwards, Zambai and his gang were then given jobs by Franky and were assimilated into the Franky Family.{{qref|name=Franky find Zambai|chapter=437|episode=322|text=Franky finds and defeats Zambai's gang in a small flashback.}}
 
 
===Water 7 Saga===
 
====Water 7 Arc====
 
Zambai was first seen when he lead the group of the Franky Family that attacked a seemingly asleep Zoro on the [[Going Merry]]. Zoro, however, was alert and countered the attack with his sword. To his question about their intention, Zambai responded that they are The Franky Family, and they came to collect the bounty on his head. Much to their effort though, Zoro was able to defeat them rather easily and sent them flying in the water before continuing his nap.
 
 
Later on, Zambai and his gang attempted to steal the money [[Monkey D. Luffy|Luffy]], [[Nami]] and [[Usopp]] got from exchanging the treasure, while the three weren't paying attention. Just when they thought they got away with the loot however, [[Paulie]] appeared jumping of a bridge straight on their [[Animal Species/Water 7 Saga#Yagara Bulls|Yagaras]] and, using his ropes, he defeated them, threw them into the water and took their Yagara, along with the bags of money.After the money were returned and and the three Straw Hats went to the docks to get information about the reparation of their ship, Zambai's gang attacked once more, this time ambushing a distracted and isolated Usopp. By the time Nami and Luffy realized what had happened, Usopp was already taken hostage along with money contained in two of the bags. Usopp was later found beat up badly, but it was already too late for the money.
 
 
Back at the Franky Family HQ, the Franky House, the boss, Franky, is astonished by the loot his underlings managed to obtain, and states that with this money they can finally buy the thing they've been wanting for three years. Just as the gang celebrates, the door explodes and reveals the badly wounded Usopp who came determined to fight for his crew's money. Despite his effort though, he gets loughed at and beaten up once again. Franky family then started a celebration with food, drinks and gambling, when suddenly Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and Chopper came at their door, seeking revenge for their mistreated crewmate. The four Straw Hat pirates start rampaging against the Franky Family, who even presented their strongest members for the battle, but they were proven no match for the raging pirates. After the battle, all the members, Zambai included, of the Family were beaten unconcious and even the house was brought down to ruins. When Franky, along with [[Mozu and Kiwi]], returned from shopping and found his house destroyed, Zambai informed his boss that this was done by the Straw Hats, who are staying in an Inn and are probably heading to Dock 1 right now. [[File:Lucci_Defeats_Zambai.png|thumb|210px|Lucci defeats Zambai.]]
 
After his first encounter with Luffy, Franky resumes his search for the Straw Hats. He reunites with Zambai, who inform him that Usopp is alone on their ship trying to fix it, and decides to kidnap Usopp in order to lure his captain. He gives the order to Zambai and his men to walk around town and yell about the kidnapping, however, instead of the Straw Hat pirates the Franky Family's yells catch the attention of the [[CP9]] who seek Franky for the Pluton blueprints. When they refuse to tell the agents where Franky is, the CP9 defeat them quickly. Zambai shouts for help from Franky as [[Rob Lucci|Lucci]] finishes him off.
 
 
[[File:Staw Hat, Galley-La, and Franky Family Alliance Formed.png|thumb|210px|left|The [[Straw Hat Pirates]], [[Galley-La Company|Galley-La Foremen]] and [[Franky Family]] unite.]]
 
 
When Luffy and his crew were preparing to board the [[Rocket Man]] to rescue [[Nico Robin]], Zambai and his groups along with [[Mozu and Kiwi]] burst into the warehouse, begging Luffy to take the Franky Family with them. Luffy easily forgave the group by telling them to hurry and board. Zambai informed him that they would be using the [[Animal Species#King Bulls|King Bulls]] cart to attach the Rocketman.
 
 
Later Zambai, Paulie and Luffy formed an alliance to fight against the forces from [[Enies Lobby]].
 
 
====Enies Lobby Arc====
 
[[File:Paulie_and_Zambai_Separate_Baskerville.png|thumb|Zambai and Paulie "defeat" Baskerville.]]
 
Upon arriving at [[Enies Lobby]], The Franky Family along with the Straw Hats and the [[Galley-La Company|Galley-La]] workers lay down their plan of attack. Franky family are supposed to move in and open the main gate. When they reach the main gate, they are faced against the two giants who guard it, [[Oimo]] and [[Kashi]]. Zambai leads his team into a fierce combat against the giants, and with the aid of Galley-La, they manage to bring them down, open the gate and lead the way for the upcoming Straw Hat pirates. The team, riding the giant King Bulls, advances towards the inner section of the island defeating foe after foe, until they reach the courthouse. There, they split in two groups in order to find the two separate switches that lower the bridge to the Tower of Justice. He, [[Paulie]] and a handful of Franky Family members had engaged Three-Headed judge, [[Baskerville]], in combat but were eventually subdued and apparently defeated.
 
 
Upon the news of the Buster Call's issue reaching them, Zambai and his comrades are already freed by Paulie and desperately try to make a move and escape the island. When they reach the coast, the Franky family come across the warship led by Vice Admiral [[Strawberry]], who orders his men to attack the criminals. The team gets bombed and thrown off a cliff but are all saved at the last minute by Paulie's ropes. When finally, the Straw Hat pirates draw the attention of the marines, Zambai and Paulie lead their men aboard the sea train, thus escaping the burning island.
 
 
====Post-Enies Lobby Arc====
 
Zambai begs the Straw Hats to take his boss, Franky with them, saying that now that Franky is a wanted man, the Franky Family does not have the strength to protect him from bounty hunters and Marine officials. Zambai then tries to reason with Franky to join the Straw Hat Pirates, but Franky refuses. Zambai then takes part in passing the speedo to the [[Thousand Sunny]], however Franky angrily wounds his family and almost gets defeated until Luffy takes it.
 
 
When the time to say farewell comes, Zambai tosses a bag of Franky's stuff from the top of the ruined city stairs. He bids Franky good luck and emotionally watches the Thousand Sunny sail off with Franky. Shortly Usopp showed up to where Zambai was and told him that his friends are sailing away. He was amazed that Usopp recklessly jumped off the stairs and landed 5 feet below but managed to get up fast and screamed that he was sorry to his friends. Zambai cheered when Usopp boarded the Thousand Sunny.
 
 
Later Zambai was busy repairing the damaged Franky House along with his family. However [[Iceburg]] showed up and offered them a job, Zambai and his group happily accepted and started calling him "new bro" which makes Iceburg feel uneasy.
 
 
===Two Years Later===
 
Zambai was seen with Tamagon and Kiev, now as part of Galley-La. The three have set up Zambai's Company Union, and Zambai is seen trying to sell [[Bimine]] and [[Marumieta]] two ships and cola.
