At first Lego feared Commander Governor, who menaced him with the threat of a court martial should he disobey. By the end, however, he finds his nerve, standing up to Governor and openly refusing to recognize him as a commanding officer.

History

Lego was dispatched to arrest the performer Randolph during one of his plays. When the Straw Hat Pirates shielded Randolph's troupe so they could finish the performance, Lego reported to Governor that Monkey D. Luffy, a pirate worth a 100,000,000 bounty, was leading the defense. Governor brushed the report aside at first, then later faulted Lego for not warning him sooner. As Lego tried to push back against the false accusations, Governor demanded proof and threatened him with court martial. Fed up, Lego shot back that he would expose Governor's corruption to the higher authorities, prompting an enraged Governor to hurl him into a wall. Once the Straw Hats wrecked Governor's fleet, the soldiers fled aboard lifeboats, and Lego is last seen in one with four fellow Marines, deserting Governor while remarking that the man has no business being a Marine Commander.

The credits list him as Captain Lego, but the title Taicho is not an actual Marine rank. The label more likely marks him as a squad or unit leader, since the term can denote a small division. His uniform lacks the cloak worn by commissioned officers, suggesting he is instead an enlisted figure of some standing within the infantry, roughly comparable to a squad leader or chief petty officer.
