Appearance

A bristly beard in a bluish gray shade frames the lower portion of Gismonda's hidden face. He drapes himself in a flowing white robe that conceals his entire frame, and a strand of pale beads with a single light blue stone at its center hangs at his neck. The mask he wears is colored a deep red and fixed into a furious scowl, topped by stiff, dreadlock-style black hair that lies flat against it.

Personality

In the manner typical of CP0's field agents, Gismonda carries himself with cold professionalism. Completing his assignment takes precedence over every other concern, and he treats his duties with disciplined seriousness.

History

Little of Gismonda's combat ability has ever been put on display, yet Nico Robin notes that the simple fact he wears a mask marks him as one of CP0's highest-ranking enforcers. By that logic he is presumed to be a trained killer schooled in the Six Powers, the martial disciplines shared by the elite Cipher Pol agents.

Alongside Joseph and Guernika, he arrived at Dressrosa to spread word that Donquixote Doflamingo's removal from the Seven Warlords had been a misprint, urging the populace to stay silent until a fresh bulletin was issued. While roaming the island, the trio drew the notice of Robin, Trafalgar Law, Caesar Clown, and Usopp. In the non-canon film Heart of Gold, he was tasked with guarding Myskina Olga and questioning her over the Pure Gold, only to lose her when Mad Treasure attacked, after which he reported his failure to Rob Lucci. He later joined Lucci, Kaku, and Stussy at the Levely to shield Saint Charlos, and once the gathering ended he canvassed departing attendees with a photograph of Princess Nefertari Vivi as CP0 hunted for her and Sabo.
