He then deliberately released the crew, injured but alive, setting them as examples, telling them to spread the word of the New Fish-Man Pirates. Despite the fact that they both looked down on humans, his treatment of humans is even more brutal than Arlong's. He considers his human captives to be expendable and sees them as nothing more than pawns, while Arlong had left humans alone so long as they paid him the "tribute" money periodically. Arlong mainly killed humans to make examples of them when they did not pay up and was content with leaving them be, aside from odd acts to make sure the humans knew who was boss, but Hody will go out of his way to attack humans, such as using them as part of his plan that will almost ensure their deaths, and threatening to kill them outright if they refuse, giving them very little chance to live altogether.
Hody basically grew up basking in the hatred of fish-men towards humanity. He and his crew would hate and fear the day when the animosity between humans and fish-men would fade. This leads Hody and his crew to become bloodthirsty radicals who do not care for the peace of Fish-Man Island. Hody himself believes that heaven has selected him and his crew to hand judgement down to humanity, in spite of the fact that humans did utterly nothing against Hody personally. Hody despises anyone who wants peace with humans especially Otohime, claiming that her preaching was aggravating and he did everything in his power to keep her hopes and dreams from becoming real.
Hody's belief of fish-men superiority is so fierce, he fanatically believes that heaven itself has granted him power. Despite Hody seeing Arlong as a role model, there are several factors that greatly distinguish the two, besides the difference in their levels of cruelty. While Arlong was tight with his wallet and could not pay for Hyouzou for his services as well as failing to get Vander Decken IX as his subordinate, Hody managed to make accommodations for these two by being more open with financial compensation and was willing to treat powerful allies as equals instead of being a dominating leader.
While Arlong valued and considered his crew as his brothers and was extremely angry when one of his crewmen was used as a shield by Luffy, Hody, on the other hand, does not hold camaraderie in any regard even though he has been close to his officers since they were kids.
In fact, Hody had no problem using one of his own subordinates as a shield to protect himself and also taunted Neptune for using himself as a shield to protect his own soldiers from harm, deeming him unworthy to be king because of that.
Furthermore, according to Hatchan , while Arlong would not harm his fellow fish-men, Hody will kill any fish-man who has shown sympathy towards humans, [19] even referring to the people who gave their signatures to support the migration as a list of traitors.
Also unlike the Arlong Pirates, who demonstrate their pride as Fish-Men by utilizing on their natural strength, Hody and his crew did not care what methods they use to show off their superiority, which was best shown by their heavy abuse of Energy Steroids as Hody calls Arlong's methods to be barbaric, which the New Fish-Man Pirates believed to a mistake to be learned from.
He has gotten so arrogant that he now does not seem to care about anyone but himself and his goal, to the point he is willing to sacrifice , of his own subordinates without a second thought. Hody is also completely fearless if not insane and delusional , using Energy Steroids , a potent drug that increases his strength, knowing the effect also shortens his life though he apparently did not realize it greatly accelerates one's age instead of simply reducing the lifespan.
He appears to have developed an addiction to the drug as he continuously ate it throughout the day and even swallowed a giant handful of steroids at once, whether as to gain an upper hand against his enemies or as painkillers. He also threatened his crewmates for preventing him from overdosing, and his violent nature may have been intensified from the side-effects of the Energy Steroids.
This arrogant stubbornness led him to overdose heavily and, in turn, destroyed his body, which even then, did not deter him from hating humanity irrationally. His arrogance also made him extremely shortsighted, as he did not even consider the consequences of allowing the Candy Factory to be destroyed, thereby angering Big Mom, whose own power and crew vastly outmatched anything Hody or his crew were capable of combating.
He will do whatever is needed to achieve his goals as he joined Neptune's army solely for sheer military knowledge and experience and has no qualms about betraying his former comrades. He claims that he is fully willing to give his own life to destroy humanity.
Hody has shown a great deal of cunning as he deceived the citizens of Fish-Man Island into believing a human murdered Queen Otohime , stole the Energy Steroids from the royal palace without Neptune suspecting him, and later allied with Vander Decken IX even though Hody does not really see him as an equal so as to carry out his plan on infiltrating the near impenetrable Ryugu Palace and in an effort to kill Shirahoshi.
Hody is also extremely arrogant and boastful to the point of being insane , showing that he not only thinks himself above all humans, but also above all his fellow fish-men, and went as far as to call the Straw Hat Pirates and a former Warlord of the Sea weak, despite their fearsome reputations and high bounties. Like many other characters, he has a distinctive laugh : "Jahahahaha! Hody seems to be someone who would rather handle things himself, evident when he instructed Ikaros Much to stay back after the latter volunteered to go after Crab-Hand Gyro's crew and opted to hunt them down himself.
He also seems devoted to their cause to the point where he was willing to resort to the use of the Energy Steroids without any fear of the side effects. Even though the rest of his crew was shocked at the news that he killed Otohime, the officers themselves already knew. However, Hody does not have any care for his crewmates as shown when he used one of them as a shield.
Dosun even admits that Hody will not hesitate to throw his comrades away. His officers, being just as fanatically prejudiced as he is, are willing to die for their cause if Hody insisted. Regardless of that, Hody's subordinates still follow, respect, and support him. They do seem to care about him since they did show concern for him after Zoro had dealt him a grievous wound and when he had an overdose of Energy Steroids. However, when the lower-rank subordinates were begging for mercy from Jinbe after Hody's defeat, they claimed that they followed Hody because they feared him.
Hody deeply respected Arlong and wished to continue his legacy of conquering humans, though he did think Arlong was barbaric and unsophisticated, a mistake that Hody claimed to have learned from and was more prepared as a result.
He sought to defeat Luffy not for defeating Arlong, but for ending Arlong's ambitions of conquering humans. Nonetheless, Arlong was one of the most influential people in Hody's childhood. Hody respects Fisher Tiger , the hero of the fish-man race, and despises the humans for refusing to donate blood to Tiger in his greatest hour of need though in truth Tiger refused the blood transfusion due to it being tainted by humanity's hatred for fish-men, a fact Tiger asked his crew not to reveal.
However, upon Jinbe's return to Ryugu Kingdom as a Warlord of the Sea, Hody learned that Tiger wished to be at peace with humans, which did not stand well with Hody's beliefs. Even as a child, Hody despised Hatchan for speaking highly of humans such as Silvers Rayleigh , and felt the urge to vomit in disgust whenever Hatchan spoke positively about this friendship. Hody deeply loathes the citizens of Fish-Man Island for not sharing his perspective.
Not only did he terrorize the citizens with violence during his uprising, he psychologically tormented them by forcing them to step on the fumi-e of their beloved queen. Hody deems them worthless and claims that they are the reason why humans scorn fish-men and also expressed a desire to execute those who gave their signatures for migration, deeming them as traitors and their signatures as a list to track on.
During his final battle with Luffy, Hody attempted to kill the citizens by having Noah fall down on Fish-Man Island, wanting them dead rather than seeing them coexist with humans. Like the rest of his crew, Hody despises humans, looking down on them with the full intent of conquering them. He believes humans are as worthless as slaves, and was willing to use them as disposable pawns for his invasion plan. Despite this, he was willing to grant freedom to those who completed the task he gave them, although the task he gave them had a very low survival chance.
He only spared Gyro and his crew so that they could tell the terrors of the fish-man race to the rest of the world. According to Fukaboshi , Hody hates humans more than anyone else, even though he had no reason to other than being raised to hate them emptily.
Luffy , for crushing Arlong's ambitions. He made the extra effort to kill them during his coup d'etat on Ryugu Kingdom, and intended to show Luffy's head as a way to incite fear to the surface world. Even after suffering a complete defeat and his body broke down to the point of no repair, Hody continuously demanded for Luffy to be brought to him for a rematch.
Hody despises Otohime for her philosophy of interspecies cooperation between humans, fish-men and merfolks, which clashes against his hatred against humanity.
To this end, he personally killed her and destroyed the signatures she worked so hard to gather and then ultimately put her hard work to waste by framing a human for the murder. While celebrating Otohime's death with his comrades, Hody calls it heaven's judgement. During the coup against the Ryugu Kingdom, Hody forced the citizens of fish-man Island to step on her portrait, squashing her supporters and insulting her even after her death. He later bragged about killing her in front of everyone and openly ridiculed her ideals.
However, even though Otohime died without knowing who shot her, she did not hate her assailant and pleaded for her children to do the same, a wish that Princess Shirahoshi went to great lengths to honor. Hody would go on to further ridicule this mercy and kindness when he was informed about it.
Hody believes that Neptune is a worthless king because he from Hody's perspective lacks pride. He did not enjoy enlisting in the Neptune Army and only sought to gain battle experience for his own self interest. After Hody successfully captured the king, he attempted to execute him in front of his people. Unfortunately for him, Hody failed due to Luffy's interference. Hody also earned Neptune's hatred when he revealed that he was the one behind his wife's assassination.
When Hody became a frail, old man, Neptune expressed his pity towards him. Hody made an alliance with Vander Decken IX , and stated it was a pleasure to be working together, and that they were equals instead of leader and underling. However, the reason Hody worked with Decken was because he considered Shirahoshi a threat and thought Decken would be the perfect person to kill her, and that he never really saw Decken as an equal, but instead put up with it simply to use him.
After he failed to kill the princess, Hody considered Decken useless. Hody also notes that Jinbe and the faction of the Sun Pirates that follow him are an annoyance. Even though Jinbe had no idea that Hody was the one who actually murdered Otohime until Hody reveals it , [29] he seems to be the only one outside the Fish-Man District to be aware of Hody's dark nature since he had been keeping tabs on Hody while he was plotting something in the Fish-Man District.
During the confrontation at Gyoncorde Plaza, Hody stated that he hates Jinbe the most for not being an enemy of humans especially after the death of Fisher Tiger.
Because of Shirahoshi 's ability to summon Sea Kings, Hody Jones considers her as a threat to his plans. Hody, in return, ridiculed Shirahoshi for her kindness and mercy. He was stripped of this power when he and his crew were arrested by the Neptune Army. Usopp noted that Arlong was nothing compared to Hody. However, he was shown to be vastly inferior to several of the Straw Hat Pirates, being severely injured by Zoro even while underwater and easily overpowered by Luffy; to compensate, he was forced to gorge on the Energy Steroids to become a match for Luffy.
He also possesses enormous willpower as he was completely unaffected by Luffy's Haoshoku Haki though the anime depicted his hand trembling slightly. During his time in the Neptune Army, he was recognized as a particularly talented soldier. Hody was shown to be an extensive planner and shrewd captain, carefully managing the core group of the "New Fish-Man Pirates" so that all its members would share his extremist ideals and intense prejudice towards humanity.
He shot Queen Otohime of Fish-Man Island and then framed a nearby human smuggler as his scapegoat, to increase support from the wider island community in persecuting humans. He was also more financially supportive of his members, freely willing to spend money to recruit the services of Hyouzou something which Arlong was unwilling to do , and was also able to recognize the value of an alliance with Vander Decken IX as an equal partner to kill the potential threat of Princess Shirahoshi.
Prior to his body becoming old and frail, as a fish-man, he was ten times stronger than the average human, and twice that in water. His strength was monstrous even by fish-man standards: he was able to completely destroy a massive wall of stone by simply gripping it. After overdosing on Energy Steroids and before they made him weak , Hody Jones' physical appearance drastically changed, resulting in a more muscular body and bleached-white hair. Also, Hody's strength had increased tremendously.
However, after his body became weak and old due to his overdosing, he lost both the boost he got and his natural strength to the point where he needed a stick just to walk, and when he tried to pull apart iron bars, his wrists broke. Like Arlong, Hody is also able to grow his teeth back immediately after they are broken. His removed set of teeth are replaced by a new set in mere moments. His eyes take on an appearance similar to those of sea kings. In this state, Hody seems to have gone mad to which Shirahoshi commented that he became far more terrifying than he usually is.
During his raid on the Ryugu Palace, Hody was seen holding a long, thin red trident , [39] possibly something he has kept from his old days as a soldier.
He managed to defeat Decken with it by stabbing him and then lifting him to block one of Decken's flying axes. In the anime, Hody also threw the trident like a projectile against Zoro. In the manga, Hody was seen holding a different trident after being struck a grievous wound by Zoro and then revitalizing himself with an Energy Steroid.
It was a light-colored one with elaborate design underneath the spikes, similar to the one used by Neptune himself, but much smaller. Later in the manga, he returned to using his original trident. The Kirisame is a curved blade that Hody puts on his dorsal fin to cut people while swimming at high speed, being sharp enough to slice through a large oarfish and underwater mountains. This further enhances his shark features.
During his assassination of Otohime, he used a rifle to kill her. He showed enough accuracy to shoot her while she was in the middle of a crowd without detection. By taking the deadly Energy Steroids , which doubled his strength each time he consumes a pill, Hody became far more dangerous than he already was, taking further advantage of his amazing physical strength. The pills had become Hody's main source of power for his campaign of terror.
Each pill he took doubled his physical strength. During his attack against Crab-Hand Gyro's escaping ship he had taken at least four and while being underwater, granting him strength at least three-hundred-twenty times that of an average human.
His jaws were also very powerful as they were all he needed to single-handedly defeat Crab-Hand Gyro, a pirate with a bounty of 73,,, and his entire crew. Swimming with blinding speed, he punched holes in their ship and even ripped the mast off using his jaws. These pills also seemed to regenerate the users' wounds to some extent and take strain off them, as seen when a wounded and seemingly unconscious Hody, given one more pill, managed to stand up in mere seconds and to use his strength to its full extent, stopping the gigantic Neptune with just one hand.
This led him to abuse the pills as though they were painkillers. After overdosing on the drug to ease the pain of the scar Zoro gave him, Hody underwent a painful transformation into a much more massive form. In this new form, his strength was greater than ever, allowing him to fire a drop of water like a bullet a great distance across the island, piercing through people, buildings and rock alike.
Thanks to the Energy Steroids, he was also able to withstand a lot of damage from Luffy's Haki-enforced attacks. Also, Hody was able to swim faster than a mermaid as he managed to catch Shirahoshi while she was fleeing. However, the Energy Steroids came back to do more harm than good as it made his body weak and old after his arrest. When he tried to bust through the prison cell, he screamed in pain as his joints snapped where he tried to draw his strength from. Hody was a practitioner of Fish-Man Karate and he showcased it by his manipulation of water.
He could hurl simple droplets of water and turn them into deadly bullets with extreme kinetic force. After overdosing on Energy Steroids, Hody appeared to drip with water even though he was not soaked, suggesting that he had been secreting it.
However, despite his enormous strength, and according to both Luffy and Jinbe, Hody's Fish-Man Karate was at an amateur level. This was shown when he fought Luffy, for while Jinbe could do noticeable damage to the rubber man, Hody's attacks were ineffective. After his body became old and frail as a side-effect of the steroids, he likely lost the ability to perform it altogether. As Hody and his future officers were growing up in the Fish-Man District, they only learned one thing: hate humans.
With Arlong as their role-model, they were indoctrinated into believing that fish-men were heaven-sent to rule the world and they grew to despise humans based on the belief that they are destined to be superior. Hody and his crew looked up to Arlong and his dream. Sometime later, in the Fish-Man District , a fish-man was preaching in the street about how humans are an inferior species that are running rampant and threatening fish-mankind. Hody Jones listened to this and seemed to take it to heart.
Remove from Favorites Add to Favorites Animeography. One Piece add Supporting. He is an admirer and fanatical believer of Arlong's ideals. Hody is a racist, overly hypocritical, prideful, brutal and vicious natured fishman who, like many of his kind, hates humans for leaving Fisher Tiger to die when he could have been saved which was not true, as Tiger refused human blood due to being betrayed.
He proves this by attacking humans within his reach. He, like Arlong, believes that fishmen are the supreme race, showing his arrogance by attacking Gyro's crew with his hands cuffed, showing them that they could easily be destroyed even with the handicap. They are particularly deadly when created from the ground the two combatants stand on. Considering his versatility and raw feats, Doflamingo can choose to fight Hody at any distance and win comfortably.
As one of CP9's most powerful agents, it might be expected that Jabra could stand a reasonable chance against Hody. However, his fights against the Straw Hats suggest that he isn't as skilled as his power level suggests. For example, Zoro was able to fend off both him and Kaku simultaneously with Usopp chained to his arm. After the sniper was finally released, Jabra failed to kill him despite landing dozens of punches successfully. Considering his failure to destroy Usopp, Jabra's attacks wouldn't even break Hody's skin.
When it can be helped, Hody prefers to fight devil fruit users near the ocean. When he submerges underwater, he can increase his innate strength and exploit the devil fruit users' natural weaknesses to drowning. However, Aokiji demonstrated an ability to freeze entire oceans through the battle at Marineford. The second Hody dives into cover, he would be stuck in ice that even the Moby Dick would struggle to break. Jesus Burgess' elbow attacks proved formidable enough to devastate entire stands of audiences with a single blast.
He plowed his way to the Dressrosa finals easily, with enough tenacity to shrug off formidable colosseum warriors. However, his fight against Sabo illustrated relatively unimpressive durability and abysmal speed. Given that Luffy struggled to keep up with Hody's final form even while using his haki, Jesus would quickly find himself caught off-guard before being ripped apart by the fish-man's razor-sharp claws and teeth.
Perona's negative hollows were able to strike dread into whoever they passed through. The only exceptions to their abilities were targets with naturally self-defeating and negative personalities such as Usopp. Considering Hody's aggressive disposition, his first inclination would be to attack Perona's ghosts rather than avoid them. After they phased through his body, he would immediately be overcome with his darkest fears and insecurities.
