Samehana

Black Shark

East Blue, Loguetown
@j8cob @Hillan @Renny @Uno @Ira @CannedBread

It didn’t take long for Samehana to catch sight of a mobilization of Marines to follow. In the interests of attempting to go unseen, she followed alongside the company of Marines from the rooftops. Whatever they were here for, they definitely meant business. What could be so important that the World Government would need this much manpower? It was especially odd since, sirens aside, there wasn’t much disturbance besides the sudden appearance of the Navy.

Eventually, the squad stopped and began to take position surrounding a cafe. Intrigued, Samehana tried to make out the figures she could see from her position. The ones at the forefront were a big ol’ Fishman, who she almost felt that she might have recognized from back home, and a young-looking kid wearing a bright red coat. ”Well, what do we have here? The Navy’s arresting kids now?” Samehana thought, whistling as she took a cross-legged sitting position on the roof across from the cafe for the sake of a more leisurely viewing experience. Couldn’t hurt to see what would happen, right? It sure would be nice if the crew had some Den Den Mushi on hand, or else it’d be a lot easier to just let the other two know what was going on.

Then again, Sancho and Church were probably in the midst of looking for her anyway. Maybe they were gonna try and get outta Loguetown before things got too crazy. Probably a bit late for that, though.

Zepp Kisaragi

En Route to Conomi Islands
@Hillan @Pacifista

Zepp sighed and shook his head, ever-present smirk never leaving his face for a moment. “I’d rather not think about all the beli I could be making off these punks’ bounties, thank you very much.” he retorted, scoffing at the “game” that Johnny took to playing. Navy wages weren’t the worst, but some of the bounties made Zeppelli a little jealous of the random bounty hunters that roamed the world. Sure, maybe nabbing a real bad mammajamma might land you a sweet promotion if you’re lucky, but Zepp was pretty content where he was. Who woulda thought being a Marine could be so annoying?

Zepp raised an eyebrow at the Captain’s hybrid order/suggestion. “I mean…. I could try blowing on the sails, but I’m afraid that won’t do much good.” he joked. Frankly, there wasn’t too much he could do about the ship’s approach. But…. “Tell you what. It’s probably a bad idea, and frankly, I don’t like it myself, but if we can get a cannonball fired at or at least over Lieutenant Gorilla’s ship, I guess I can give him a hand.” he suggested. If he could just meld onto the surface of some ammunition, he could get there in decent time, and with minimal effort on his part. The hard part would come when he actually got to the allied vessel.

Samehana

Black Shark

”Fwaaaahhh~. That was refreshing.” the voluptuous Fishwoman sighed as she landed feet-first on the Loguetown dock. She had decides to spend some time swimming as a nice little warmup workout. So far, things had been quiet in town and there weren’t too many around these parts that wanted to challenge her to much of, well, anything. As a result, Samehana was beginning to get a little bored. On the bright side, they cooked all kinds of things here! One would think that the Golden Fleece Pirates’ chef would be taking notes or something, but instead she enjoyed the local eateries without a care in the world. Besides, Sancho and Church only complained after having seafood for weeks straight during their voyages.

Still glistening from the seawater, Samehana attracted a fair bit of attention from those who watched the Fishwoman launch out of the water like some kind of super-dolphin, as well as those she passed by as she walked through the town. This wasn’t anything new to Samehana, as she had long been made aware that she stood out amongst most people. What she was most interested in at the moment was the sound of sirens that blared through the town. Huh. Wonder what that’s all about?” she thought, watching as the townsfolk all hurried off. Maybe someone ratted Sancho out? It didn’t make sense that there would be such a commotion over “Church, the Litterer”, that much seemed obvious. And it certainly wouldn’t have been for her. Maybe some real dangerous pirates came into Loguetown and started causing trouble? The very thought of such a prospect made the Fishwoman grin ear to ear, her razor sharp teeth shining in tandem with the twinkle in her eyes.

Just as she was getting geared up to try and find this mysterious band of miscreants, she frowned. Sancho and Church might nag her if she made too much trouble. ”Eh, it’ll be fine if I just try and scope ‘em out, right? Just try not to fight ‘em and everything’ll be A-OK! After all, if they get their asses kicked by some Marines, they might not be any fun anyway.” Samehana mused, finally setting off to any areas where she could find any “weirdos” or signs of some action that she could watch from a distance.

Zepp Kisaragi

“That Gorilla’s as loud as he is huge.” Zepp remarked once Captain Freyja had ended her call. And he was just beginning to enjoy the sun. Straightening his standard issue Marine cap, Zepp watched Freyja stand up out of the corner of his eye (not that most people could tell, considering he always looked like he was asleep) he leaned on the railing. People often remarked that Zepp was a lazy guy, but the Captain was a total sad sack. Real goddamn bummer, she was.

“I see you couldn’t be more excited.” Zepp teased, brushing off the sleeves of his white track jacket and his jean legs. From what he’d managed to listen in on past the hot-blooded roars of Lt. Anaru, it appeared that they were going to assist the other division in repelling an invasion by the “Sunny Massacre Pirates”. They certainly sounded like a fun bunch, didn’t they? Frankly, Zepp wasn’t too interested in dealing with a group of bizarrely-titled outlaws, and instead set his mind to pondering where he’d like to take a nap. If they were lucky, “King Kong” would take care of ‘em before they even got to the island.

Zepp took a moment to scan the deck for Johnny, the young Ensign. Between just Freyja and Zepp, there was enough apathy to go around. But ol’ Johnny boy probably had enough pep in his step for the both of ‘em. Perhaps he was a bit more gung-ho about that sort of thing? Eh. Whatever.

”Zepp”

As a member of Cipher Pol
(Eyes always appear closed and he usually doesn’t wear a mask)

{Name}
Mumyoumaru
Zeppelli “Zepp” Kisaragi

{Height/Weight}
6’2”/

{Age}
Thirty-two

{Personality}
Mumyoumaru is a calm, cold and collected individual. Dedicated to his ideal of “Shadow Justice”, Mumyoumaru likes to carry things out swiftly and quietly, in order to allow the commonfolk to remain ignorant of the persistent war being waged between the World Government and the pirates/Revolutionary Army. All things considered, however, Mumyoumaru is rather polite, keeping a professional tone even to those whom he sees as enemies to “peace”. Surprisingly enough, he has a soft spot for things that would be considered “cute”.
Those who have had the pleasure of meeting Zapp find him to be a very friendly individual who happens to be quite easy to talk to. On the other hand, he’s also known to be rather lazy and unreliable, often being found goofing off somewhere away from his post. There are times, however, when he seems to give off a “scary” vibe, particularly when it comes to interacting with pirates and revolutionaries. No matter what, he always has a smirk on his face, which can often clash with the words he’s saying. Has a soft spot for things one would consider “cute”.

{Home Island/Sea}
Wano Country
Shimotsuki Village, East Blue

{History}
Not much is known about Mumyoumaru before he became a member of Cipher Pol, and many have only heard of him within the higher ranks of the World Government. Rumour has it that he’d been doing assassinations for the World Government before even joining Cipher Pol.
Growing up in Shimotsuki Village, Zepp lived a fairly carefree life. In fact, young Zepp might have followed in his father’s footsteps as a fisherman if it weren’t for a fateful encounter with the Marines. One day, while out at sea with his father on the family’s fishing boat, a freak storm whipped up and wrecked their ship. By that point, they were already far from land, and the rough waters made it impossible to swim back. Convinced that he and his father would die that day, a ray of hope came in the form of a naval ship, apparently sent out to try and assist those caught out in the storm. It was thanks to the brave Marines on that ship that both Zepp and his father survived that day, and Zepp promptly came to the conclusion that he wanted to be a “cool hero guy” like the Marines from that day.

As such, for the first (and some say the last) time, Zepp was hard at work to meet the qualifications to join the Navy. While he was certainly a promising recruit as far as his mental acumen and physical ability, it was quickly proven that his personality was a bit too lax for a Marine. So much so, that every time he was promoted, it was met with a fair share of ire. However, none could deny that Zepp is incredibly competent in moments where he actually bothers to do his job. As a result, he’s managed to land himself the position of Lieutenant Commander at the least.

{Fruit}
Surface-Surface Fruit: A Paramecia type fruit that allows Zepp to become a 2D “shadow” on a surface. Usable for such purposes as slipping between impossibly tight spaces, hiding on thrown objects and a variety of other uses. Adding to the power’s utility is Zepp’s ability to make parts of his body three-dimensional while still attached to a surface. Zepp’s figure appears as a shadow on surfaces, so use of the power in infiltrations needs to be done with care. Furthermore, causing damage to the part of a surface that Zepp is on also causes damage to Zepp.

{Abilities/Race Traits}
Being a ninja from Wano Country, Mumyoumaru is skilled at Ninpo, stealth and the art of disguise. This, combined with his expertise in Rokushiki techniques (with Shigan, Soru and Kami-E being particularly high level) and the use of his devil fruit makes him a deadly individual. On top of all of that, Mumyoumaru is also a contortionist, capable of twisting his highly flexible body into a variety of positions.
While Zepp is considered to be fairly lazy, he’s also known for being pretty quick and uncannily good at performing reconnaissance. While he tends to avoid engaging enemies directly, he appears to be more than capable of handling himself in a fight. Also, an absolute wizard on the harmonica.

{Fighting style}
Rather than focusing on big, powerful attacks, Mumyoumaru instead chooses to focus on precision strikes to an enemy’s vital points. When not tossing shuriken or fighting with a pair of short blades, he often defaults to using Shigan, a technique which he’s mastered to the point he’s also capable of using it at long range. Using the disorienting movement from rapid use of Soru and creative use of the Surface-Surface fruit, Mumyoumaru is incredibly good at working his way into an opponent’s blind spots even in direct combat.
Zepp can be described as a defensive fighter, tending to react to opponents’ attacks by countering or grappling an opponent and restricting their range of movement. Frankly, Zepp would rather just dodge until the opponent exhausts their own energy or someone else comes to beat them up.

@LokiLeo789 I figured that'd be the case, but maybe things changed in the 50 years post-series that this RP takes place.

Samehana, the Black Shark

Samehana

Back on Fishman Island

One Month Post-Loguetown

{Height/Weight}
5’11”/”You’ve got some nerve asking that”

{Age}
Twenty-eight

{Personality}
As a generally level-headed and often playful individual, Samehana can come off as being more approachable than her appearance might suggest. Samehana has a habit of being a little flirtatious, though at the same time she’s also quite snarky, especially with her crewmates. The one thing she gets the most excited about is facing opponents who can test her skills, a fact that sometimes causes her to drag out fights longer than needed for maximum satisfaction. Those who seem to have the potential to become stronger intrigue her in particular, and she’ll often make note of them in the hopes of future encounters.

{Home Island/Sea}
Fishman Island

{History}
From a young age, Samehana knew she wanted to become a martial artist. As a little fishgirl, she often watched as her father’s students at the Fishman Dojo trained vigorously in the art of combat. She idolized both her father and her older brother, Samejin, and it wasn’t long before she begged her father to train her in Fishman Karate as well. While her father, Samemoku, was hesitant at first, Samehana was persistent. Before long, she had broken through her father’s wall of denial and began training at the dojo. Both Samejin and Samemoku were impressed by how quickly Samehana caught on to the finer points of Fishman Karate, to the point that they labeled her a prodigy. While Samehana trained happily, she quickly surpassed her brother who had been training for years up until she took up Fishman Karate.

Samemoku began to regret his choice somewhat once Samehana had begun to blossom into womanhood. Her shapely figure and pretty face attracted no small amount of suitors and would-be students who wanted to win her favour. It took the elder fishman quite a bit of willpower not to stop her from training in order to shelter her from those who would come to take her hand in marriage. At the time, it took Samehana a while to catch on, but she eventually turned it into an opportunity for competition. In fact, before setting off from Fishman Island, she had a sort of “contest” running where whoever could best her in combat would be worthy of her hand. Of course, she never lost.

With Samejin in line to eventually be the next head of the Fishman Dojo, Samehana didn’t have much reason to stick around other than perhaps settling into complacency. Instead, Samehana decided that she would explore the world outside of Fishman Island, hopefully encountering greater fighters than those she fought in her homeland.

{Fruit}
N/A

{Abilities/Race Traits}
As a Fish(wo)man, Samehana possesses immense physical prowess. Though, Samehana is considered monstrous even among Fishmen. Combined with her mastery of both Kenbunshoku and Busoshoku Haki, Samehana is a formidable fighter. It is her proficiency in Busoshoku Haki that earned her the title “The Black Shark”, due to her ability to harden her entire body with Haki. Also of note is her cooking ability, which is literally only in the area of seafood. Everything else she makes turns out awful.

{Fighting style}
Samehana happens to be a high-level master of Fishman Karate, which she often combines with moves she’s picked up from various martial artists she’s encountered during her travels. Samehana typically tries hard not to kill her opponents if it isn’t necessary, a luxury she can afford on account of her immense speed and power.
