History

Gannot fought Franky repeatedly for control of the Water 7 underworld. He later found out that the vessels which had sunk the Judicial Ships at Tom's execution were Franky's handiwork, and eager to add new ones to his hoard, he set off after the shipwright toward Dressrosa. Once there, the Straw Hats spotted his bounty; Robin worried he was chasing Pluton, but he proved to want only the Battle Frankies. When Franky refused to build him one, Gannot tried to force the issue, was swiftly beaten by the crew, and was turned over to Margin so they could claim his bounty.
