Appearance
Summary
Kashii is a giant who wears viking attire, has long dark hair and a big semi-bearded chin. He sports orange suspenders, which hold up an orange and black kilt with yellow buttons on it; otherwise, his torso and arms are bare, exposing well-toned muscles. He has big black boots that go up his shins, as well as an orange helmet with a tan brim and two small tan striped around the middle. The top of the helmet has light blue frills reminiscent of a mohawk, supported by a tan protrusion along the center, and two small horns are on the sides. He is usually seen with his axe.

Personality
Summary
Kashii proved to be very fond of his captains, to the point of being willing to work at Enies Lobby for a hundred years, in order to obtain their release from Impel Down. When he discovered the World Government's deception, he became angry and rebelled.
Relationships
Friends
Oimo
Oimo is a fellow giant comrade who Kashii appears to always be together with. They've been together over a 100 years since their time as members of the Giant Warrior Pirates and guarding the entrance of Enies Lobby. They both share a strong loyalty to their former pirate crew and they both expressed extreme anger over how the World Government tricked them.
Brogy And Dorry
Kashii deeply respects his two former captains, Brogy and Dorry. He displayed concern over his captains ever since they started their duel under Ebalf Tradition, and after 50 years he went out with Oimo to seek them. This loyalty was used against him by the World Government where they tricked him and Oimo into believing Brogy and Dorry were captured and enter an agreement that they would protect Enies Lobby for a 100 years in exchange for their captains' safe return. When Usopp informed Oimo of the World Government's deception, Kashii has shown relief over how his two captains were actually still safe fighting their duel.
Sogeking
Along with Oimo, Kashii has shown both respect and gratitude towards Usopp after learning the truth about his two captain from him. He personally assisted the sniper in his quest to save Nico Robin by letting Usopp ride his shoulder and have him catch up with the rest of the Straw Hats in front of the Tower of Justice in Enies Lobby. While assisting in the repairs of Water 7, he invited Usopp to join him and Oimo to return to Elbaph. Despite Usopp declining the offer, he wasn't bothered by the decision and believe that they will reunite until the day the Straw Hats visit Ebalf.
Enemies
World Government
As a member of the Giant Warrior Pirates, Kashii is an enemy to both the World Government and the Navy. However, when the Navy captured him and Oimo, the World Government tricked them into believing they were holding their captains, Dorry and Brogy, prisoner, and that they would be released after he and Oimo guard the entrance of Enies Lobby for a 100 years. While Kashii appeared to be rather casual to the Navy during his time as a Gatekeeper, this immediately changed to deep resentment after learning of their deception from Usopp.
Abilities And Powers
Summary
As a giant, Kashii possesses superhuman strength and resistance. As a demonstration of his strength, he together with Oimo were able to successfully protect the doors of Enies Lobby for fifty years. Together with Oimo, he also managed to defeat the Kairiki Destroyers, the three strongest members of the Franky Family after Franky himself, in an instant. Even after receiving numerous injuries from the joint efforts of the Galley-La foremen, Franky Family, Sodom and Gomorrah, Kashii still had enough strength to sow panic at Enies Lobby together with Oimo, defeating numerous marines. He also survived after taking full cannon shots from a marine battleship.
Weapons
He wields a large broad axe though how skilled he is with it is not known.
History
Past
Life As A Pirate
109 years ago, Kashii was already a member of the Giant Warrior Pirates. He was present when Yuki asked Dorry and Brogy which one of their catches were bigger 102 years ago. After they challenged one another to a duel, Kashii left Little Garden with the rest of the pirates. Around 40 years after Dorry and Brogy started their duel, Kashii was seen at Elbaph on the day before the Winter Solstice Festival. During a conversation with other giants, Kashii wondered how the duel between Dorry and Brogy could take so long. He then asked Charlotte Linlin if she and her friends were ready for the event. When Jarul and Jorul appeared there, Kashii asked them where they were going.
The World Governments Lie
About fifty years ago, thinking it strange that neither one of their bosses had returned yet, Kashii, along with Oimo, left Elbaph to return to Little Garden and find out what had become of their bosses. Along the way, they were captured by Marines, and were interrogated about their crew and purpose. They were then told that Dorry and Brogy had been captured and were imprisoned in the government's great prison. The World Government made a deal with them that if they worked for them for 100 years, they would set their bosses free and allow all four of them to return home together. Oimo and Kashii agreed, and became the guardians of Enies Lobby's front gates. For fifty years, they guarded the gates successfully. Twenty-two years before the start of the series, Oimo and Kashii heard the news that the Pirate King Gol D. Roger had been executed. Kashii believed that there would be more pirates in the future, but Oimo was confident that they would not attack Enies Lobby.
Water 7 Saga
Enies Lobby Arc
After fifty years of service, they fight against the Franky Family, Straw Hat Pirates, and Galley-La Company foremen as soon as the three groups invaded the island. Due to it being nighttime, the giants are asleep when Luffy makes it through, but are awakened by a Marine shortly afterwards, at Spandam's command. They emerge to fight the majority of the Franky Family once they reach the Main Gate, and have no difficulty in deterring their efforts, bringing most of them down quickly. The tide soon turns against them, however, when the foremen, Zambai, Kiwi, and Mozu come to the gate riding Sodom and Gomorrah. Kiwi and Mozu use their Hull Dismantler Slash to destroy Kashii's shoes, knocking him off-balance, and Paulie uses Timber Hitch Tug while Zambai blasts him in the face with a bazooka, knocking him down and against the gatehouse. Tilestone and Lulu use Tree Nail Lock to immobilize Kashii, and Zambai, standing on the giant's face, tricks Oimo into smashing his partner's face with his club, knocking him out. Kashii is unconscious while Oimo tells Usopp (still disguised as Sogeking) their story, and Usopp reveals that Dorry and Brogy were still fighting, and that the World Government had lied to them. Angered at being deceived for fifty years, Oimo and Kashii switched sides and swore vengeance upon the World Government that had kept them in the dark for so long. This was first revealed to the Houbantai, who had just managed to overwhelm the three Galley-La foremen, when they approached from the front gate and began attacking them. The two giants rampaged through the island, bringing the foremen with them, and arrived at the courthouse just in time to save the Franky Family from being overwhelmed by the Marines when Yokozuna was knocked out by one of the Just Eleven Jurymen. They took his place in guarding the door to the inner courthouse, keeping the Marines out, but not before flinging Sogeking up to the rooftop to rejoin the Straw Hats. While Oimo and Kashii proved very effective in guarding the courthouse, they eventually reached their limit, and were brought down when the Marines and Agents swarmed them. They were tied up along with the invaders in the courthouse (grinning constantly while they are bound, for some reason), but before any further actions could be taken against them, Spandam broadcasted to the entire island that he had accidentally triggered the Buster Call. All of the Marines and Agents flee to escape Enies Lobby, leaving the invaders and giants tied up at the courthouse. Soon afterwards, they are freed thanks to Paulie, who had tied himself up with his own ropes. Oimo and Kashii carry Sodom and Gomorrah while the Franky Family and Galley-La Foremen ride on the King Bulls. The giants encounter no difficulty as they head towards the front of the island, where the Puffing Tom waits. Upon reaching the sea train, however, they find themselves facing three Marine battleships, onto which the Marines and Agents stationed in Enies Lobby are boarding. The cannons and rifles on board aimed at them, they can do nothing but hold their ground until the battleships finally fire, hitting them with enough force to blow away the front gate and seemingly killing them. However, shortly after Luffy defeats Rob Lucci of the CP9, it is revealed that thanks to Paulie's ropes, they all managed to escape death by hanging on the side of the island. With nobody guarding the front gate anymore, they clamber back to the island and board the Puffing Tom. Upon hearing that the Straw Hats have escaped, they set out from Enies Lobby themselves, for a smooth voyage back to Water 7.
Postenies Lobby Arc
Oimo and Kashii are next seen helping to repair Water 7 from the effects of Aqua Laguna, Usopp alongside them. The two decide that they cannot go to Little Garden if their bosses are still fighting, so they decide to stay on Water 7 for a while to help rebuild it, and then go back to Elbaph. They invite Usopp to join them, and he considers the offer, but ultimately declines in order to rejoin the Straw Hat Pirates. The giants also attend the Straw Hats' barbecue party after Luffy awakens, and after the Straw Hats' departure from Water 7, they express their anticipation of the crew visiting Elbaph someday.
Thriller Bark Saga
Where They Are Now
In the aftermath of the events at Water 7, Kashii is seen leaving for Elbaph with Oimo. At one time after leaving Water 7, they had traveled to Little Garden to see their captains, Dorry and Brogy, with the intention to stop their duel temporarily so that Dorry and Brogy could travel to Elbaph to get new weapons.
Final Saga
Egghead Arc
After returning to Elbaph, Oimo and Kashii were reunited with Dorry and Brogy. The giants were in the bar with Shanks and the Red Hair Pirates when the Kid Pirates began attacking the Emperor's subordinate crews near Elbaph. Oimo and Kashii watched as their captains sank the Victoria Punk. Afterwards, the Giant Warrior Pirates sailed to Egghead in order to pick up the Straw Hats. They reached the island after the Buster Call had begun, so they attacked the Marines' ships. The giants made landfall and spread out across the island, continuing to destroy the ships. Later on, Oimo and Kashii would take notice of Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro's attempted attack on Jewelry Bonney and her allies. After Nusjuro injured Sanji, the two giants jumped to his defense, holding the Elder back from injuring him further as Bonney turned into giant and attacked Nusjuro. Nusjuro managed to free himself and attacked Bonney, Oimo, and Kashii. Nusjuro then created a shockwave which knocked out Kashii. After the clash, Oimo and Kashii were ordered by Dorry and Brogy to set sail from Egghead with the Giant Warrior Pirates, but the crew was ambushed by some Vice Admirals, during which Kashii was directly defeated by Doll. The crew however managed to safely set sail and were later joined by Dorry, Brogy and Luffy, but they were later once again attacked this time by Marcus Mars but were saved by a combined attack by Luffy, Bonney, Franky and Sanji, until the next Elder, Topman Warcury, tried to sink the ship but was stopped and punched back by Emet, who was emerging from the water, shocking everyone present. The crew couldn't catch a break though, as their ship became the target of Jaygarcia Saturn, who latched onto the ship intending to kill Luffy and Bonney, though he was repelled by both. The crew, with the Straw Hats, Bonney, Kuma, Lilith and the Thousand Sunny, were finally able to leave Egghead after the remaining Elders were forcibly sent back by a massively powerful Haki burst released by Emet, with their destination set to finally be Elbaph. Later the Giants and the Straw Hats were having a feast to their successful escape from Egghead.
Elbaph Arc
After the feast, everyone noticed that six of the Straw Hats (Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji and Chopper) were missing, but after everyone failed to find them, Franky called off the search. The Giants then listened to Robin reading from the newspapers about the Egghead Incident and were astonished to know that both Dorry and Brogy's bounties were reactivated and raised substantially, as well as the Giant crew and the Straw Hats being framed as the instigators of the Egghead Incident and Luffy the murderer of Vegapunk. When Dorry and Brogy shared their impression with Luffy's new status as one of the Four Emperors, they expressed pride at the fact that Hajrudin had sworn loyalty to Luffy, as he was also the son of the king of Elbaph. They then further explained the troubled history of Hajrudin and his half-brother, Loki, to the Straw Hats and what the reason was he was chastised by the entirety or Elbaph. Both Oimo and Kashi later felt nostalgy when they saw Robin having a new haircut being done by Brook so that Saul would recognize her, as they and the crew then reached the shores of Elbaph where they were greeted by Colon before they used a "painter" to create a rainbow which took all of them directly to the home village of Dorry and Brogy. Oimo and Kashii later joined their fellow giants in a toast to the Straw Hats defeating Kaidou and Big Mom and declare their fellowship and loyalty to Luffy, just before they all were surprised to see Elder Jarul appearing at the feast. Later on, Oimo and Kashii were telling Usopp about the legend of the "Mountain Eater" and "Ya-San", a former pirate who had been living on Elbaph for the past 20 years. As they saw both Usopp's shock and surprise about this pirate's story, they further revealed that he used to be "The Left Hand of the Pirate King" who was on equal terms with both Gol D. Roger and Silvers Rayleigh, before revealing him to be Scopper Gaban, shocking Usopp entirely. Sometime later, the feast was forced into an early end as Elbaph came under attack by the God's Knights, a division of the World Government. Using their strange abilities, the God's Knights assaulted the Walrus School, before taking nine of the children hostage, and making them sleepwalk away using arrows. In addition, a fire had been started by Loki, forcing Elbaph's fire department to intervene. However, before they could make it, one of the God's Knights' constructs, known as "MMA", emerged from the forest and struck down their svarr, shocking Kashii. With little choice other than to defend their home, the Giant Warrior Pirates embarked their ship once more. Before departing, they converted it into a svarr, allowing it to fly. Afterwards, they set off intent on stopping the new threat. The crew fought tons of MMA as they made their way over the forests of Elbaph, killing many of them as they came. While on the way, they spotted nine children from the Walrus School, sleepwalking directly into a fire. Miraculously, a huge amount of water hit the flames just in time, saving the children. As a result, the crew cheered for Elbaph's local firefighters, unaware that Jinbe of the Straw Hats had been the one to assist. Afterward, the crew set back off, fighting more MMA in the nearby forest. However, the continued battle and never-ending MMAs made victory exceptionally difficult to achieve, which was made worse by the mounting damage to the ship. As they went to leave, the crew found themselves under siege by the one enemy they were incapable of fighting : mothers. Due to the MMAs being created from what the hostage children feared most, giant MMA versions of the Giant Warrior Pirates' mothers and wives appeared to fight as well. Kashii was terrified and unable to do anything as the ship crashed into the forest. Fortunately, he and the rest of the crew remained fairly unharmed, and set out with the new goal of stopping the God's Knights directly, as well as saving their children. After a bit of running, the crew was able to reach the children, finding them to still be mostly unharmed. Before they could act, "Gunko" (in reality, Imu possessing her body) floated into the air, and proceeded to unleash a massive burst of Supreme King Haki, knocking out a few of them. Despite the minor setback, they persisted, and Brogy proceeded to grab Imu before they could inflict further damage. However, Imu was far more powerful than they had assumed, and used a strange ability to forcibly convert Dorry, Brogy, and a few of their crewmates into Demons, to Kashii's horror. They then, on Imu's orders, proceeded toward Jarul's location, in order to kill him, and announce themselves as the new kings of Elbaph. Kashii begged his captains to stop their advance, citing how they had all looked up to Jarul for as long as they could remember. Brogy agreed, but countered by mentioning that Jarul's old age had apparently made him weak, to which Dorry added that they would lead the island from a position of strength, bringing on a new age of war. Kashii was in disbelief at his two captains delusional new mindset, and demanded to know what had happened to them. Before he could continue, he was interrupted by Thormann, who warned him not to get too close. Sure enough, Tallman's vicinity allowed for the demonization process to "flip" him as well, forcing Kashii and his remaining crewmates to flee as Dorry and Brogy attempted to attack them.
