The Roger Pirates are known to be the greatest and most accomplished crewto ever sail the seas of theOne Pieceworld in recent history. Led by the legendary pirate, Gol D. Roger, the Roger Pirates turned the world upside down by completing the circumnavigation of the whole globe and finding the Final Island, Laugh Tale.
While fans know quite a bit about the Roger Pirates, especially their members, Oda has yet to give them a detailed look at the crew. This is because the Roger Pirates have only briefly appeared in the story so far. Hopefully, that will change later down the line. For now, Oda has given fans some juicy information about the Roger Pirates, as all their roles are finally revealed.
Oda Reveals The Structure And Roles Of The Roger Pirates
One PieceVolume 112 dropped recently, and with it, Oda also dropped the latest SBS. In the SBS, Oda wasasked about Scopper Gaban, who everyone knows is a former Roger Pirate, and what his role in the crew was. Oda confirms to the fans that Gaban was actually the navigator of the crew, and he’s the one who took them to Laugh Tale, and saw to it that Roger becomes the Pirate King. However, at the same time, Oda also gave the fans a good look at the roles of all the other members of the Roger Pirates. Here’s what Oda had to say:
QUESTION: WHAT WAS GABAN’S ROLE IN THE ROGER PIRATES?
EIICHIRO ODA: I GAVE A GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE ROGER PIRATES BACK IN VOLUME 96’S SBS. BUT I’LL NOW INTRODUCE THE MAIN MEMBERS AND THEIR ROLES.
The Roger Pirates Were More Elaborate Than The Straw Hat Pirates
Fans were utterly shocked at seeinghow elaborate the Roger Pirates werewhen compared to the Straw Hat Pirates. For one, fans found out that Roger has people on the ship who other crews wouldn’t even think of. Roger had an intelligence officer on his crew, which would’ve been great for him if he wanted to stay one step ahead of his rivals. At the same time, he also had a tactical officer, which comes as a shock to quite a few fans. An Informant is usually not needed on the crew, but Roger had one anyway, and the most shocking of all, Roger also had an interrogator, which makes his crew much cooler than most.
Will Fans See More Roger Pirates In The Story?
Fans will definitelysee more of the Roger PiratesinOne Piece. There are many characters connected to them, and they will most likely see more of the crew in the Elbaf flashback of Loki, and also through the flashbacks of Shanks and Buggy later down the line. The Laugh Tale arc could also give fans a better insight into the Roger Pirates later down the line.
