SSG

The , abbreviated as SSG, is the Marines' science unit division led by Vegapunk. The SSG is responsible for the research and development of advanced technology and weaponry for the World Government, including the Pacifista and eventually the Seraphim, which the Government hoped would be able to replace the Seven Warlords system as one of the current Three Great Powers.
The SSG's main base of operation is Egghead, where every member also resides currently.

==History==
During the timeskip, the SSG created and developed the Seraphim, elite Pacifista units with lunarian biology and the appearance of the former Warlords as children.
After the most recent Levely, the Seven Warlords of the Sea were abolished due to the majority vote of the rulers affiliated with the World Government, believing that the new weapons developed by the SSG were capable of replacing the Warlords as military assets. 
During the historical Egghead Incident though, several of the SSG members perished or left the group: Vegapunk, the main body and initial founder, was lethally stabbed by both Jaygarcia Saturn and Kizaru while two of his satellites, Shaka and Pythagoras, were directly murdered by one of their own, York, who betrayed the group to pursue her mad aspiration of becoming a Celestial Dragon. Later on during the Egghead Incident another one of his satellites, Atlas, sacrificed herself by detonating herself in an attempt to stall Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro, one of the Five Elders, who was planning on stopping the Straw Hat's escape from the Labophase.
