Nicknamed the Missionary, Gambia serves as staff officer of the Barto Club and shares his captain's worship of the Straw Hats. He first surfaced as a gladiator chasing the Mera Mera no Mi at the Corrida Colosseum.
Gambia is lean, missing his upper front teeth, with pale hair piled into a beehive and framed by sideburns. Jaguar-spot markings run across his upper arms and a cross is inked on his chest. He keeps a goggled headband on his head and sunglasses over his eyes, and dresses in a dark vest, mid-thigh shorts, knee-high boots, and elbow pads, with a set of nunchaku jammed into his waistband.
Easygoing and upbeat, Gambia is rarely seen without a wide grin, and he openly admires notorious criminals, branding the big names as "cool guys." He adores the Straw Hats just as Bartolomeo does, and can match his captain's nerve, even helping torch the flag of the Emperor Shanks. He also dotes on the elderly woman the crew calls Granny, ringing her over the Den Den Mushi for guidance that, charming as it is, almost never proves useful in a crisis.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

When I first decided to commit to watching One Piece seriously, I knew I was embarking on one of anime's longest and most beloved series. With over 100...
Strong enough to carry a 67,000,000 bounty, Gambia is presumed a capable fighter, though his skill with the nunchaku he carries remains untested on screen. His sole real clash went badly: at the Corrida Colosseum he walked in on Vice Admiral Maynard, who was undercover and briefing his comrades. To keep his cover, Maynard knocked Gambia out and dumped him in the garbage, but Bartolomeo later tracked the Marine down and beat him in retaliation.
After Doflamingo fell and the Straw Hat Grand Fleet formed, Gambia rode with the Barto Club as they ferried Luffy's group toward Zou, the navigator-less crew leaning uselessly on Granny's advice. Later, while peddling Straw Hat merchandise on an island, he and Bartolomeo boldly burned Shanks' banner. That act eventually drew the Red Hair Pirates to them during the Elbaph Arc, where Bartolomeo proved his loyalty by drinking supposed poison meant for Luffy, only for Yasopp to blow up their ship anyway, leaving the crew's fate uncertain.
