Biography

Tashigi (Japanese: たしぎ, Hepburn: Tashigi)

Later in the day, Tashigi sent Shigure to Ipponmatsu's arms shop for cleaning. While retrieving it, she ran into Zoro again and became interested in his sword on seeing Ipponmatsu furiously trying to haggle for it. Excitedly, she identified it as the Great-Grade Wado Ichimonji. Then, still unaware of Zoro's identity, she tried to befriend him, sharing her dream of recovering all the world's Famous Blades from 'undeserving' criminal hands. During their interaction, Tashigi found and identified the Sandai Kitetsu among the shop's cheapest blades. While she was confused by this, Zoro inferred—and Ipponmatsu confirmed—that the sword was cursed, with a notorious history of ruin and death for prior owners. Intrigued, Zoro challenged the curse with his own luck and successfully tossed the Kitetsu without injury, overawing both Tashigi and Ipponmatsu. Soon after, Tashigi regrouped with Smoker and was alerted to a disturbance at Gold Roger's execution scaffold: a grand melee between the Buggy Pirates and the Straw Hat Pirates, with Buggy moments away from beheading Monkey D. Luffy. Though unconcerned about Luffy's fate, the two Marines were shocked to find Zoro involved and that he had become a pirate himself; their shock was compounded when a freak lightning strike destroyed the scaffold, allowing Luffy a last-second escape. While Smoker descended on the Buggy Pirates, a furious Tashigi cut off the Straw Hats' escape route, accused Zoro of deliberately misleading her, and attacked him with intent to confiscate the Wado Ichimonji. Though deeply driven—to the point of dismissing Luffy and Sanji as they continued the escape—Tashigi was promptly defeated and disarmed. Initially terrified, she grew outraged on realizing that Zoro would not physically cut her, thinking he was condescending to her for being a woman. Zoro was provoked by this further resemblance to Kuina, and they descended into a childish argument until a sudden gale separated them. Ultimately, all of the Straw Hats escaped Loguetown, and Tashigi, still deeply humiliated, was the first to join Smoker's quest to pursue them out to the Grand Line.
