One Piece (ワンピース)



Nami (ナミ)


Nami (means "Wave" in Japanese) is the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates (麦わら海賊団:, Mugiwara Kaizoku-dan). She is practically in-charge of the their ship, "Going Merry" (ゴーイングメリー号,, Gōingu Merī-gō) when the crew go sailing and somewhat fulfilling the roles of treasurer and quartermaster as well. She is an excellent navigator and has the ability to recognize and analyze even the slightest changes in the weather through sheer intuition, thus saving the ship and the crew from the very unstable Grand Line weather on multiple occasions.

She holds great respect and deep trust for Luffy's leadership qualities as a captain of the crew but she too, often gets angry with his irrational thinking and his execptionally short angry with his irrational tst always the one who call the shots on the ship (much to Zoro's resentment) due to Luffy's usual lack of common sense and impulsiveness. At times required, she will comically beats up her crewmates for their nonsensic2C she will comically beats ch is a norm on board of the Going Merry. Acting as the "Big Sister" of the crew, Nami doesn't understand or approve of the boys' often macho attitudes and principles. These are the only situations where Nami doesn'td prino have the final word, as seen when she tried to talk sense into Luffy and Usopp's great fallout. The only person whom Nami can confide to on the ship is Nico Robin, th person whom Nami can confidible person currently on the Straw Hat crew. She is also the only person Nami doesn't try to boss, and Nami has stated that Robin is the only person who understands her. Currently, Nami has been given a Dial (貝:nds her. Currently, Nami 4ル, Daiyaru) enhanced Clima-Tact, the "Perfect Clima-Tact", by Usopp. The new weapon was powerful enough to wipe out an entire group of soldiers; with the Perfect Clima-tact, she also managed to defeat CP; with the Perfect Clima-t place as one of the crew's most valuable members.

Nico Robin (ニコ・ロビン)


As an archaeologist, Robin values ancient artifacts and buildings and will risk her life to protect them. She also gets incredibly angry with those who try to destroy these ancient relics. Her dream, formally shared by her mother, is to find and decipher the Rio Poneglyph, which contains the True History of the Blank Century and the One Piece world. The Devil Fruit (悪魔の実, Akuma no Mi) which Robin consumed is known as the 'Hana Hana no Mi' (ハナハナの実, Hana Hana no Mi). The fruit's power enables her to conjure up multiple replicas of her body parts (most often her arms) upon any surface she is able to see. Thus she is very powerful and dexterous as a result.The World Government (世界政府, Sekai Seifu) wants Robin captured because she is the last surviving person to be able to decipher poneglyphs. They claim that her ability to read poneglyphs would lead to the revival of the ancient weapon Pluton. While some of the more well-informed civilians believe this, and want her dead because of it, it has been implied that the World Government truly wants Robin captured so she would not discover the secrets of the Blank Century; a lost piece of history that contains information which the World Government wants to keep hidden. The only surviving written accounts of the events of the Blank Century are on the Rio Poneglyph. The World Government also want Robin to resurrect Pluton for their own use. Robin has stated that she doesn't care about Pluton at all

Robin at first tried to distance herself from other people, even her friends, as she believed that her past and enemies would eventually tear her away from them. For that reason, she rarely calls her comrades by name and instead uses titles, such as Miss Navigator (Kōkaishi-san, i.e. Nami), Mr. Swordsman (Kenshi-san, i.e. Zoro), Long Nose (Nagahana-kun, i.e. Usopp), Mr. Cook (Kokku-san, i.e. Sanji), Mr. Doctor (Isha-san, i.e. Chopper) and Captain (Senchō, i.e. Luffy). However, she tends to call Luffy by his name at times.
To be con't.....
