Appearance

Half fish-man and half human, Sapi sports a shaved head from which a small blue fin protrudes at the back. His skin is tanned and his frame looks fairly muscular. A broad grin is rarely absent from his face, and he wears a dark yellow shirt striped horizontally.

Personality

That wide grin reflects his pride at having landed such a prize catch, and he plainly takes pleasure in both fishing and running his stall.

Abilities

Because only half his blood is fish-man, Sapi likely lacks the full superhuman strength and underwater breathing his fully fish-man kin possess. Even so, he is a capable angler, having hooked a sizable fish seldom seen in East Blue waters. While Sanji wandered the marketplace, Sapi welcomed him to his stand and identified the huge fish as a blue-finned elephant tuna, boasting that he had reeled in the South Blue rarity himself. He offered to carve off a portion, but Sanji bought the whole fish instead, which Sapi happily wrapped up. In the anime he instead announces and commentates the Loguetown cooking contest, where his name was first given as Ness before later being corrected.
