Ganzack Pirates

The Ganzack Pirates were a group of pirates led by Ganzack. They appeared in the first OVA.
==Jolly Roger==
The crew's Jolly Roger is designed to resemble a crab, with the central skull flanked by two sets of three spiny legs. Above each set of legs is a red pincer, and a set of eyeballs rests atop the skull.

==Crew Strength==
The Ganzack Pirates had the strength to overtake Medaka's island, but they were easily defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates. Ganzack himself was assigned a 10,000,000 bounty, a feat considered impressive in the East Blue where he was located, and the Plesiosaur was powerful enough to easily sink small ships.
==Ship==
The Ganzack Pirates possessed a massive warship, 150 meters long, made to achieve Ganzack's goal of conquering the Grand Line. The ship was a massive, complex machine, built beneath the Devil's Tower by the enslaved islanders. Ultimately, however, the joint forces of the islanders with Luffy, Zoro, and Nami sank the ship.
Before it sank, the warship was huge, and included spikes, cannons, and several special weapons. In the bow of the ship, there was a chamber for the Plesiosaur, and there was a massive dynamite gun, a weapon of mass destruction, on top of the fortress.
==History==
====Past====
At some point in the recent past, the Ganzack Pirates arrived at the island where Medaka lived, and began taking its people as prisoners. They then forced the enslaved islanders to begin construction on a massive warship.

====Defeat Him! The Pirate Ganzack====
As Plesiosaur swam through the ocean, it spotted a small dinghy, easily snapping it in half. Two of its passengers, Luffy and Zoro, were swept underwater, while the Plesiosaur took the third passenger, Nami, and returned to the island.
Back on the island, Nami was taken to Ganzack, who asked her to join his crew and become "his woman". After recognizing Ganzack's name and bounty, she agreed to join.
Elsewhere, Alto and Chico then found Luffy washed up on the shore of the island, and prepared to loot his body. However, they were challenged by Medaka, causing Luffy to wake up in the ensuing chase. In a rage, he beat the two pirates unconscious, leaving them on the beach.
After awaking, the two pirates returned to the Devil's Tower, where they reported Luffy's presence on the island. While Ganzack initially didn't believe their description of his abilities, Nami confirmed their validity.
A short time later, Luffy, Zoro, and Medaka snuck into the Devil's Tower, but were quickly attacked by a group of pirates. As they began to fight, another pirate was suddenly lowered down from a rope tied to a motor and kidnapped Medaka.
Luffy chased after them, only to find out that it was Nami in a mask. She revealed that she had joined the Ganzack Pirates, before Ganzack himself arrived. Luffy and Ganzack began to fight, and while Luffy initially proved an even match for both the captain and the Plesiosaur, he was eventually incapacitated. Ganzack's men soon forced Zoro to surrender as well, by threatening to fire on the islanders, and the two pirates were shackled to a wall with Medaka.
Later, celebrating their victory, the Ganzack Pirates threw a party, which they forced the chained trio to watch. As Ganzack and Luffy continued to argue, the islanders began a rebellion, as Herring used dynamite he stole to cause an explosion in the tower. The Ganzack Pirates rushed out to deal with the villagers, leaving the trio and Nami inside alone.
After quelling the rebellion, Ganzack prepared to execute Herring, but he was interrupted by Medaka, who had been freed by Nami. He decided to instead execute both of them, but was interrupted again by the trio of pirates, this time reinvigorating the villagers in the process. Wanting to stop them, Ganzack decided to reveal his ultimate weapon, being the Devil's Tower itself. The Plesiosaur towed the tower, along with the Ganzack Pirates, away from the island, revealing the crew's ship in its entirety.
Now separated, Ganzack ordered a shot be fired, blowing away a large chunk of the island. While he intended to eventually sink the entire island, the ship was attacked by Luffy and Zoro, taking on Ganzack and his men respectively. While Ganzack fought off both Luffy and Medaka, who had joined the fray, Zoro successfully finished off Ganzack's men while the villagers and Nami sunk the Plesiosaur. However, refusing to be defeated, Ganzack fired one last shot at the island while declaring himself Pirate King; he was then punched into the sky by Luffy, causing him to crash into his own shell and explode in midair.
Whether or not the crew later reunited is unknown.
