Ganzo is a traveling oden chef, the grandfather of Tobio, and a childhood friend to the legendary gold pirate Woonan. He serves as a supporting character in One Piece: The Movie.

Abilities and Powers[]
Ganzo is believed to be a skilled chef, as he is an oden chef.
History[]
One Piece: The Movie[]
Ganzo "sacrifices" his life for Woonan.
When they were young, Ganzo and Woonan had an argument about how important gold really is. Ganzo believed that gold could not bring happiness. During the fight, they fell over the cliff they were on, hanging onto Woonan's pirate flag. Knowing how important the flag was to Woonan and that Woonan could not hang on for much longer, Ganzo let go so that the flag would not get ruined and so Woonan could climb up. Fortunately, Ganzo was rescued by a passing ship and woke up days after the accident to find that Woonan had already left to become a pirate. They never saw each other again.
When Ganzo, Tobio, and the Straw Hats finally found Woonan's crypt several years later, it was empty except for Woonan's skeleton, flag, and a dying message. Ganzo was surprised to find that Woonan had realized what Ganzo told him was true, and thought of their friendship as his most valuable treasure, rather than the actual gold itself.

Trivia[]
- His name is an alternate reading of a set of kanji normally read as Iwakura (岩蔵?), an extant Japanese surname most famously associated with Meiji Japan's diplomatic mission to the West.
- This is the first character name in all of One Piece—canonical or otherwise—to be rendered purely in kanji, rather than katakana or hiragana.
