Gardar, the "Garuda Pirate," is a minor antagonist in the game One Piece Odyssey. A North Blue captain who models his crew on the fictional Germa 66, he ambushes travelers in Arabasta's desert until the Straw Hat Pirates run him down for his bounty.
Gardar is a large man wearing a thin black mustache. His outfit consists of a tank top worn beneath a set of overalls.
Admiration for Germa 66 runs deep in Gardar, enough that he raised an entire crew in their honor. He is also a man without scruples, going after ordinary travelers simply to rob them of their loot.
Gardar drew his inspiration from the Germa 66 featured in Sora, Warrior of the Sea, the in-universe comic, and built a pirate crew in which each member acted out one of the unit's roles. He himself played Garuda and took his epithet from the part, later earning a bounty. He and his crew settled in Bone Bridge Canyon within the Sandy Desert, where they leapt from low cliffs to waylay passersby, though they handled the falls so badly that they would lie sprawled on the ground before striking. When his wanted poster appeared in Spice Bean, the Straw Hats hunted him out and challenged him; his crew announced themselves to be Germa 66, which irritated Sanji, and they were easily beaten and handed to Margin. In the Reunion of Memories story, set in a Memoria reshaped by Crocodile, Gardar joined Baroque Works under the title "Mr. 66" and was put in charge of Nanohana before the Straw Hats defeated him once more.

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...

The transformation everyone knows, the follow-up question nobody would touch. Why we made a smooth R&B track about the golden glow Dragon Ball never talks about....
Gardar, known as the Garuda Pirate, is a minor antagonist from the game One Piece Odyssey. A North Blue captain who models his crew on the fictional Germa 66, he ambushes travelers in Arabasta's desert until the Straw Hat Pirates hunt him down.
Gardar drew inspiration from the Germa 66 featured in the in universe comic Sora, Warrior of the Sea, and built his entire pirate crew around acting out the unit's roles. He himself played the part of Garuda and took his epithet from it.
Gardar and his crew settled in Bone Bridge Canyon within the Sandy Desert of the Arabasta Kingdom, where they ambushed passersby by leaping from low cliffs. They handled the falls so poorly that they often lay sprawled on the ground before striking.
Gardar was defeated after his wanted poster appeared in Spice Bean and the Straw Hat Pirates hunted him down to challenge him. His crew's boast of being Germa 66 irritated Sanji, and they were quickly beaten and handed over to Margin.
In the Reunion of Memories story, set in a Memoria reshaped by Crocodile, Gardar joins Baroque Works under the title Mr. 66 and is put in charge of Nanohana. The Straw Hat Pirates defeat him again in that version of events.
