**Crocodile** is one of the worlds strongest pirates and one of the 3 Leaders of the Cross Guild

He has not been shown in the Series yet only mentioned.

## Appearance

Crocodile is a tall man with a wide chest, broad shoulders, muscular arms and legs, and a thick neck. He has pale skin and nape-length black hair, which is kept neatly slicked back, though strands tend to fall in front of his face during battles. Crocodile has various battle wounds, most notably a long-stitched scar at the bridge of his nose that stretches across his face and a large hook made from a tough gold alloy in place of his left hand. His eyes are deep-set and heavy-lidded, and his thin eyebrows are characteristically drawn upward in the middle. This gives his usual facial expression a feeling of condescension and distrust. Crocodile speaks with a deep, relaxed voice, and he is usually seen smoking a thick cigar produced by his company. In the anime, his skin is somewhat of a grayish color.

His theme of dress is meant to convey the image of an Italian mafia boss. Crocodile wears a black button up , along with a light green scarf, black suit pants, and polished black shoes with gold buckles. He also wore a long, thick, light pelted fur coat over his shoulders.

## Personality

Crocodile is a seasoned, cunning and business-savvy pirate who is self-assured and confident in himself and his own abilities. He enjoys toying with weaker opponents, often grinning and laughing smugly during battle. Crocodile's willingness to kill shows his pitiless nature, and he does not think twice about sentencing another person to death. He is also very quick to get angry if someone insults or ridicules him in any way. Despite his low tolerance for receiving insults, Crocodile has the habit of taunting others, frequently using the word "worthless" to refer to the desperate struggles of his enemies.

In battle, Crocodile shows a complete lack of fear and doubt, If Crocodile is extremely angry or annoyed with his victim, he will rarely kill them outright, instead leaving them to suffer as they slowly die.

Crocodile has displayed an extremely cynical and patronizing attitude, showing complete disregard to the romantic pirate lifestyle and stating that all the values that the status of Pirate King had once symbolized were now worthless to him. Crocodile valued military power above popularity, renown, and treasure, believing that only ignorant fools declare their grandiose dreams.

## Relationships

### Friends

#### Buggy The Clown

Crocodile and Buggy have a working relationship with Crocodile not giving Buggy the time of the day most of the time purely ignoring him.

#### Dracule Mihawk

Crocodile and Mihawk while they have a working relationship they are also friends with each other commonly being united over their shared love of piracy and riches or their anger at Buggy

## Abilities and Powers

In addition to his powers being of the Logia-type, allowing him to turn into sand to avoid injuries, Crocodile has an enormous amount of physical stamina, durability, pain tolerance, resilience and endurance, coupled with remarkable speed and reflexes.

### Devil Fruit

Crocodile ate the Sand Sand Fruit, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to create, control, and transform his body into sand. This ability allows him to easily re-form his body after most attacks.

While in a desert/sandy area, his powers make him nearly invincible. Crocodile has the ability to create huge sandstorms, make multiple bladed weapons out of sand, and create quicksand (given the presence of a nearby underground waterway). He can also create powerful sandstorms that grow in power until even Crocodile himself cannot stop them.

He can absorb all the moisture out of any object, living or non-living, by touching it with his right hand. This ability allows him to utterly destroy his surroundings, killing and mummifying any biological substances via dehydration. This application does not work on metallic substances, though. However, if moisture comes into contact with his body, it immediately reverts to solid form and cannot transform.

### Weapons and Equipment

#### Hook

In addition to being one of the few characters shown to have some degree of mastery over their Devil Fruit, Crocodile is also formidable in hand-to-hand combat using a hook. His hook is made mostly out of an extremely tough and resilient gold alloy, which makes it resistant to corrosion.

The gold part of the hook is hollow and can be removed to expose a poisonous hook hidden inside. This porous secondary hook releases a powerful scorpion venom, which is strong enough to melt through rock and kill anyone with the effect of a single slash.

In the unlikely event that the hook becomes damaged, there is a knife hidden underneath that can be ejected and used in its place. In a pinch, the very wide base of the hook can also serve as an improvised mace-like weapon.
