Vice Admiral Stainless[4] is a Marine officer who participated in the Summit War of Marineford. In the anime, his name was said to be Kaizeruhige (カイゼルヒゲ, Kaizeruhige?).[5]
Appearance[]
Stainless is a tall man standing at a similar height to Momonga, who is 8'3 or 251 cm, he is also a well built individual. His most distinctive feature is his handlebar mustache. His hair is black and combed back with a scalp lock, but by the time at the meeting in Mary Geoise, it was more straightly combed.
He dresses in the typical garb of many high-ranking Marines: when discussing about Luffy and later Crocodile's replacement, he wore a purple suit (which was striped during the first meeting, but not during the second), but during Marineford, he changes to a yellow and black striped suit over a dark red shirt with an orange tie. He wears a marine coat hanging from his shoulders like a cape.

Personality[]
As a Marine, Stainless has a strong sense of justice. He does not like Doflamingo and his actions, as the pirate manipulated his associate to attack him, causing both vice admirals to become panicked and confused.
Abilities and Powers[]
As a vice admiral, Stainless is capable of commanding a Buster Call alongside four other vice admirals. He also has command over lower-ranking subordinates. However, he was no match for Crocodile.
Weapons[]
He carries a katana during the battle of Marineford, like most of the vice admirals. His exact level of swordsmanship remains unknown; however, it is presumably quite high, with him being a vice admiral.
Haki[]
It was stated that all vice admirals possess Haki,[6] so Stainless can also use the ability.
History[]
East Blue Saga[]
Loguetown Arc[]
Stainless next to Cancer.
Stainless sat next to Cancer when the Marines were having a meeting in Marineford in regards to Monkey D. Luffy's rise in the East Blue after he defeated Arlong.[1]
Sky Island Saga[]
Jaya Arc[]
Stainless struggling against Doflamingo's puppetry.
Stainless attended a meeting in Mary Geoise to determine a new Warlord of the Sea after Crocodile's dismissal. Vice Admiral Mozambia was then manipulated by Donquixote Doflamingo to attempt to strangle Stainless. He struggled against the officer, not knowing that it was Doflamingo's doing.
He also drew out a sword later on to prevent another officer (who was also manipulated by Doflamingo) from attacking him. The quarrel was stopped by Sengoku's arrival.[2]

When the execution of Portgas D. Ace was announced, Stainless reported to the summoning of the Marines to reinforce Marineford.

Later, Stainless and his fellow vice admirals lined up and ready to fight the Whitebeard Pirates. When the Whitebeard Pirates advanced into the plaza, Stainless ordered his underlings to attack Whitebeard. When Luffy was trying to get to the execution platform, Stainless ordered Marines to stop him. Upon Shanks' arrival and truce was declared, Stainless stood down under Sengoku's orders.

- Kaizeruhige is Japanese for "kaiser mustache", which in turn means "handlebar mustache", which made him the fourth character nicknamed after his facial hair.
