Sakazuki

Sakazuki formely known as Akainu is the current fleet admiral of the marines.

## Appearance

Sakazuki is an incredibly tall, light-skinned, unusually muscular man. He's about as tall as his fellow admirals, with a square-shaped face, very pronounced facial features, and short black hair. He usually wears a standard Marine cap and sports a crimson, double-breasted suit, decorated with what appears to be a pink rose on his left buttonhole. Unlike many high-ranking Marines, he does not wear a tie, but instead leaves his light red colored flower-patterned shirt unbuttoned, showing his muscular neck and part of his tattoo. He wears black gloves and black shoes.

The tattoo on the left side of his chest is light blue, containing numerous images of flowers integrated into its design. Sakazuki's tattoo has flame-shaped edges, and it extends from the admiral's left shoulder to his hip, covering part of his back and ribs. He has another, smaller tattoo in the shape of a black sword on his right deltoids and a small part of the biceps.

## Personality

While he is a strong and capable leader who has done well to consolidate the power and prestige of the Marines, Sakazuki would be best categorized as an extremist and near blind dogmatic. He is an adamant believer in Absolute Justice and is ruthless in his maintenance of it,. He has a stern, dead-serious disposition, is grim, expressionless, and was the most ruthless out of three admirals 2 years ago when he was a admiral.

This has given him a very fearsome reputation, but of greater concern is his dogmatism, which may end up making the Marines into a force that is worse than the enemies they hope to eliminate. Despite this disposition, Sakazuki seems to be able to restrain himself at times, As Fleet Admiral, Sakazuki holds immense pride in the name of the Marines. His pride is so great he would rather cover up the ordeal to ensure that the Marines remain adamant and credible to his doctrine of Absolute Justice.

## Relationships

### Subordinates

#### Petra D. Knight

Petra is a powerful subordinate of Sakazuki so powerful that he chose to swear her into the position of Admiral without the process it usually takes to find candidates (we still do not know who she is replacing.)

#### Derek Thorne

Sakazuki dislikes Thorne but entertained his call as he was about to go on break. They know each other well enough that he called him Sakazuki instead of Akainu.

## Abilities and Powers

As with all admirals, Sakazuki's physical prowess is immense. His raw physical strength was enough for him to go up against and clash evenly with Whitebeard in close quarters—the "Strongest Man in the World" who, in his old age, could still overpower a giant's strength easily.

### Devil Fruit

Sakazuki ate the Magma Magma Fruit, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to create, control, and transform his body into magma. His magma is extremely hot and highly explosive, thus making it well-suited for combat, allowing Sakazuki to burn, melt, and destroy anything in his path—in fact, among all Devil Fruits, Sakazuki's is said to offer the greatest attack power.

Sakazuki's primary method of combat is transforming his arms into magma to launch burning punches (or clawed thrusts) that can easily penetrate human bodies, drastically enlarge his arms to throw forward giant magma fists meant to reach enemies farther away, and even launch multiple magma fists as a barrage of meteor-like projectiles, devastating the battlefield. Otherwise, he has been seen shaping his magma fist into a fanged dog head, as a nod to his animal motif.

Beside the invulnerability of Sakazuki's magma body against all but Haki attacks, its heat has enemies heavily discouraged from coming near and striking him physically, lest they be burned. Also, his powers bestow him high maneuverability; he can melt himself through anything in his path, even tunneling through the very ground, and can briefly fly using jet bursts of magma to propel himself.

### Haki

He has mastered Armament Haki and Observation Haki

## History

### Pre-West Blue Saga

At some point he became the fleet admiral.

### West Blue Saga

Well dealing with the death or resignation of a admiral (We are unaware what admiral or what happened to them) he decided to take a break only when Captain Thorne called him and it went like this: “What do you need captain, i hope you're aware that this type of call from your rank is not typically permitted but i took it as i was about to go for break anyway” - Akainu. “There is a pirate crew named the Secret Pirates who have caused numerous problems across the west blue and i would like your permission to pursue them into the grand line despite my punishment” - Throne. Akainu can be heard audibly scoffing over the Den Den Mushi “Thorne why would i allow you to do that your punishment is so severe your lucky your not executed along with your family” - Akainu “Fleet Admiral you believe in absolute justice so why did you allow Vice Admiral Knight to stop my mission of killing this crew and cutting them off here” - Thorne. “I have no idea what you're referring to Thorne vice admiral Knight is to be sworn into the position of admiral tonight and gain her codename there is no way or reason she would be in the west blue” - Akainu Thorne slams his desk again angry but trying to keep his composure “You want absolute justice Sakazuki you wont get it with inaction let me chase and kill these pirates” - Thorne. There is a sigh from the otherside of the phone “Fine Thorne” - Akainu
