Appearance

The Tsumegeri Guards wore the armor similar to the regular Arabasta Royal Guards but with the addition of a turban with a duck headband and wings on each sides. They wear what appears to be war paint, with one line that goes down to the nose as their common mark.

Personalities

The Tsumegeri Guards were fiercely loyal for their country and ruler, as they were willing to drink the Hero Water in an attempt to even the odds against Crocodile, knowing full well of the lethal side-effects.

Members

Abilities And Powers

All members are seen carrying a large sword or axe, though it is unknown how skilled they actually are. Having drunk the Hero Water granted them immense strength, allowing them to break their bracelets simply by bracing their muscles. But in exchange, their lifespans were shortened to five minutes.

History

Arabasta Saga

Arabasta Arc

The Tsumegeri Guards appeared in the court yard of Alubarna Palace shortly after Crocodile explained his plan of obtaining Pluton to Cobra, Vivi, and Chaka. They demanded that Crocodile released the king and refused to leave despite Cobra's order not to anger Crocodile and the latter's offer to let them leave in recognition of their spirit. Instead the Tsumegeri Guards unleashed the power of the fatal Hero Water, breaking their bracelets just by bracing their muscles. Stating that they must let Crocodile know the country's pain and anger, they charged at him all at once and even managed to hit him. Yet, Crocodile dissolved into sand and remained unaffected by the attack before leaping to the roof of the palace, refusing to give them an honorable death. It is then that the Hero Water's side effect kicks in, they all collapsed and died.

Legacy

When Crocodile started laughing and mocking the stupidity of their actions, Chaka lost his temper and attacked Crocodile himself.

Translation And Dub Issues

"Tsumegeri" (爪蹴り?) is a portmanteau of the Japanese terms for claw and kicking. In all professional English translations—4Kids, Viz, and Funimation—the unit's name is translated as Kicking Claw Force. In the 4Kids anime, their deaths are rewritten into an implication (by Crocodile) that the "Fatal Fuel" has paralyzed their bodies for life.
