Trident

A trident (三叉槍) is a three-pronged spear. It is used for fishing purposes as well as being a polearm. It is the symbolic weapon of the Greek God of the Sea, Poseidon, as well as being wielded by Poseidon's wife Amphitrite and his son Triton. The eldest of the Titans Oceanus, though rarely depicted with it, can also be considered a trident wielder. A Part II remastered-exclusive character Kaimei Sanjaku, Chief General of Sango Island Armed Forces of the Sango Island, is also seen wielding a trident. 
== History ==
The very first and most famous trident was crafted by the Elder Cyclopes, which were Cyclopes Arges, Brontes and Steropes, in order to assist the Anti-Titan Alliance led by Zeus to take down the Titans in the Titanomachy. This trident belongs to Poseidon, god of the sea. Sometimes, Poseidon's trident is said to be crafted by the Telchines. Poseidon's wife Amphitrite and Poseidon's son Triton, both wield a trident, alongside the titan Oceanus, who was sometimes said to wield a trident. However, Oceanus is specifically depicted not wielding a trident for most of the time, as depictions intended to differentiate between Oceanus and Poseidon, whose roles are similar. 
The origins of the trident wielded by Kaimei Sanjaku is mysterious, but it can be speculated that the trident was forged by an expert blacksmith of Sango Island.
