Oars
Oars is a giant zombie revived on Thriller Bark as its Special Zombie and ruler of the island's zombies. The creature carries Luffy's shadow and therefore mimics rubber-like movements while pursuing its own goal of becoming Pirate King. Oars rampages through the ship after awakening, destroying structures and clashing with the Straw Hats before Moria directs it against the crew.
Appearance
Oars possesses a massive stitched body covered in visible seams along its limbs and torso. Horns protrude from its head above wild hair, and the giant wears a belt decorated with three skulls along with a hat featuring three skulls. Markings such as SZ-900 and S-900 appear on its arm.123
The giant's enormous frame towers over buildings and allows it to smash through multiple structures during movement. Its reach extends far enough to strike distant targets without stretching, and its size causes the ship to lurch when it shifts position.452
Personality
Oars expresses a personal dream of becoming Pirate King and declares this intention after awakening. The giant also shows strong hunger by immediately demanding meat upon breaking free from its chains.64
Oars obeys Moria as its master and accepts orders to attack the Straw Hats without question. The giant later claims its body cannot be damaged by repeated attacks while continuing to rampage across the battlefield.78
Abilities and powers
History
Oars fully awakens in chapter 457 when its fingers twitch and its expression shifts from dead slackness to awareness. The giant breaks free from heavy iron chains, releases a tremendous scream, and immediately begins moving through the chamber while the Straw Hats remain hidden nearby.1012
After awakening Oars eats large amounts of food inside the hall and states its plan to leave Thriller Bark for the outside world. The giant later emerges from underground in the ruined town, bears the SZ-900 marking, and begins attacking the Straw Hats directly under Moria's orders.61
Oars fully awakens amid observations from the crew positioned at a high vantage point above Thriller Bark. The giant is identified by characters as Luffy's zombie during this emergence and multiple characters react in shock to its appearance and attack.1314
Oars smashes through debris with a powerful strike while a man in a black hat reacts in panic below. The giant states the current situation is perfect as Luffy shouts his Pirate King ambition from its shoulder.15
Relationships
Oars treats the Straw Hats as immediate enemies and attacks figures resembling Luffy without hesitation during its rampage. The giant recalls wanted posters of Franky Nami and Luffy while searching specifically for those targets and smashes through obstacles to reach them. Interactions include Oars striking at Luffy's appearance and enduring combined assaults from multiple crew members who attempt to restrain it with environmental traps.1617
Oars engages in direct combat exchanges with individual Straw Hats such as Franky and Zoro who target its joints and attempt to limit its movement. The giant counters their efforts with swings and roars while the crew coordinates to bind it using chains and environmental features. These encounters highlight Oars' focus on eliminating threats from the crew while they exploit its size and momentum against it.1819
Major battles
Oars clashes with the Straw Hats after Luffy demands to know who its master is. The giant mimics rubber attacks during the fight and withstands strikes from Zoro's Santoryu techniques, Franky's blasts, and salt projectiles aimed at its zombie weakness.720
Oars fights the combined Straw Hats in the ruined courtyard and performs a Butt Stomp that scatters the crew. The giant counters joint attacks from Robin and Usopp, endures Luffy's Frapper punch, and later receives a mortar blast from Franky before lightning strikes it down.212223
Thriller Bark rampage
Oars is randomly steering Thriller Bark and uses Gatling Gun attack destroying General Zombies and ship equipment. The giant quickly escapes the zombies grasp and moves across the deck while rampaging freely through Thriller Bark plaza where multiple general zombies were defeated in a single moment.2425
Oars crashes through the castle wall into the area and delivers a powerful roar from close-up view while its massive form dominates the battlefield. The giant rampages across the bridge area causing structural collapse and becomes stuck by its horns during the rampage yet begins moving despite apparent restraint.2627
