Sentoumaru

Personality

Sentomaru is a complex character whose personality is defined by his unwavering loyalty, strong sense of duty, and surprising contradictions. He presents a stoic and somewhat enigmatic exterior, claiming to have "the tightest mouth," yet readily volunteers information when it suits him. This seemingly contradictory behavior hints at a deeper personality, one that values self-assuredness and competence but also possesses a dry wit and unexpected moments of vulnerability. His loyalty to the Marines is strong, yet his deep debt to Vegapunk ultimately leads him to betray the World Government, showcasing a complex moral compass. Despite his imposing size and strength, Sentomaru displays a surprising level of perceptiveness, quickly assessing opponents' abilities and strategies. He respects worthy adversaries, showing disdain for those he deems weak or unworthy. His relationship with Kizaru, a mixture of respect and exasperation, further highlights his nuanced personality. While he initially views pirates as adversaries, his actions in the Egghead Arc demonstrate a willingness to cooperate with the Straw Hats for the greater good, highlighting a capacity for pragmatism and loyalty beyond his initial affiliations. His past, marked by hardship and eventual acceptance into Vegapunk's care, shapes his present actions. His unwavering dedication to protecting Vegapunk, even at the cost of his own standing within the Marines, underscores his profound sense of gratitude and loyalty. This loyalty, coupled with his strong sense of justice and duty, makes Sentomaru a compelling and multifaceted character.
