Abilities
Firearms are Nanya's specialty. He carries a rifle and handles it with a fair degree of skill. His signature contribution is a coordinated team move called Zako Storm, a three-stage rush carried out with Donai and Honma: Honma opens with a kick, Nanya follows with a shotgun blast, and Donai closes by slashing downward to send out a shockwave resembling a Rankyaku. In Ocean's Dream!, the Naniwa Pirates came upon the Straw Hats mid-ocean. After mentioning that Banzai had told them Mr. 2 Bon Kurei was traveling with the crew, captain Donai threw down a challenge, only to be beaten almost as fast as the fight began.
