Marine Service
Edit
Sixty years ago, a 14 year old Zephyr enlisted in the Marines, desiring to become a hero. He eventually participated in his first battle four years later, in the
G-5 Division
[4]. At age 28, Zephyr realized that the Marines are not always heroes. Six years later, Zephyr had mastered Busoshoku Haki. For this reason, he received the epithet "Black Arm".
Zephyr became an Admiral at age 38, during
Gol D. Roger and
Edward Newgate's golden age. By this time, he had become very popular with his subordinates. He got married, and a year later, his son was born.
Zephyr's happiness was ended prematurely when a pirate murdered his wife and son three years later. Zephyr wanted to resign from the Marines, but he was eventually persuaded to stay as an instructor. He trained many cadets, most of whom would ascend the Marines bureaucracy in both power and status.
Zephyr screams after losing his arm and almost all of his division. Twenty-three years after the death of his loved ones, Zephyr's arm was cut off by a pirate who has a Devil Fruit power, along with his entire division massacred with only Ain and Binz surviving. At age 70, Zephyr received his
mechanical arm from a government scientist and began hunting down pirates with Devil Fruit powers.
Neo MarinesEdit
One year ago, the same pirate who severed Zephyr's arm became a
Shichibukai, prompting the instructor and former Admiral to renounce the Marines in order to create his own group, the
Neo Marines. With his new group they plotted to destroy all pirates.
Sometime after the Neo Marines were formed,
Ain and
Shuzo dueled each other for the position of Z's right hand. Ain became the victor and Z appointed her as his second-in-command
