Nero was the lower ranking intern of CP9 and an antagonist in One Piece. He was first introduced on the Puffing Tom, where he was helping to escort Nico Robin to Enies Lobby.

He is voiced by Hidenobu Kiuchi in Japanese and Todd Haberkorn in English.

Appearance[]

Nero is a pale, slender man dressed in a stunning ensemble of orange slacks, a hat with a crimson plume, and a dark-brown T-shirt. He wears two necklaces around his neck: a smaller, more basic one made of green beads, and a larger, more ornate one made of many red diamonds connected by chains. He has bands around his wrist and a glove on his left hand. He sports a distinctive hairdo that has three strips that resemble a mohawk over a bald top.

Personality[]

He has acquired the standard training for CP9 agents, as evidenced by the relaxed manner in which he spoke to Franky during their altercation. However, he is not averse to expressing his feelings, such as rage at being duped, fear of impending pain, or irritation at Franky's pranks. In addition, Nero doesn't seem to be as tough as the other agents because he readily accepted Franky's deception when he questioned what was behind him so he could sucker punch him.

He had some conceit underneath his placid façade; he believed that by understanding four of the six forms of Rokushiki, he was a "superhuman" who could compete with the other, full-fledged CP9 agents. Nero was shocked and tried to flee but failed when Rob Lucci threatened to kill him and kicked him out of the team.

Biography[]

As Nero was a new candidate, he only could use four of the six Rokushiki techniques: Soru, Geppo, Kami-e, and Rankyaku. His lack of Tekkai and Shigan made him unable to block powerful strikes and pierce opponents, respectively. To compensate, he evaded enemy strikes carefully with Soru, Geppo, and Kami-e; for offensive, along with slashing with Rankyaku, he used a pair of pistols instead of stabbing with his fingers. He was at least skillful enough to have one variation of Rankyaku.

Nero may not be very strong compared to the other, fully-trained CP9 agents, but he was still quite intelligent, since he figured out that the attackers on the Puffing Tom would try going along the roofs of the train cars in order to reach the one containing Nico Robin as easily as possible, and he was able to quickly deduce that Franky was vulnerable to attacks aimed at his back. Alas, this was not enough to impress his assessor, Rob Lucci.

Regardless to his creative improvising and analytical nature, his lack of mastery of Rokushiki caused Rob Lucci to claim Nero was "worthless" to the unit, leading to Nero's rather brutal dismissal.

Nero attempted to stop Franky from rescuing Robin but failed and was punched through the roof of Puffing Tom, into the cart where the rest of CP9 was. Battered as he was, Nero continued to try to fight Franky and stated he would kill him, but Lucci would not allow this, as they were simply supposed to capture him. Displeased that Nero failed in his task, Lucci gave Nero three seconds to escape, who was too slow to grasp the notion that he just got fired. At which point Lucci quickly took him out with five Shigan attacks. Lucci then personally expelled him from CP9 and Nero's wounded body was thrown into the ocean during Aqua Laguna, one of the biggest storms in the world. It is unknown whether or not Nero is dead or alive.

Powers and abilities[]

Despite not being as powerful as the other fully-trained CP9 agents, Nero was still quite intelligent. For example, he quickly surmised that Franky was vulnerable to attacks to his back and that the attackers on the Puffing Tom would attempt to climb along the train cars' roofs in order to reach Nico Robin as quickly as possible.

Nero could only perform four of the six Rokushiki techniques because he was still a new member with insufficient training: Soru, Geppo, Kami-e, and Rankyaku. Due to a lack of Tekkai and Shigan, he was unable to deflect heavy attacks or penetrate opponents. To compensate, he avoided opponent hits with Soru, Geppo, and Kami-e; on offensive, he slashed with Rankyaku and utilized handguns instead of stabbing with his fingers. He was at least skilled enough to have one Rankyaku variant.

Regardless of his creative improvisation and analytical abilities, Nero's lack of knowledge of Rokushiki led Rob Lucci to declare Nero "worthless" to the unit, resulting in his expulsion.

Nero compensates for his absence of Shigan with a pair of derringer flintlocks.
