Chiryaku Ten'nen Maru[]
The Chiryaku Ten'nen Maru was a ship used by Mr. 3 and Miss Goldenweek. It is largely personalized after Mr. 3, which he used to travel to Arabasta and escape from Mr. 2 (who was ordered to kill him). The ship had sails with blue and white stripes, a number 3 figurehead and was powered by the Doru Doru no Mi powers.
The Holly Home Run (ホーリーホームラン号, Hōrī Hōmuran-gō?) was a ship used by Mr. 4 and Miss Merry Christmas.[16]
Its name references both of their themes, combining baseball's home run with the the Christmas-associated holly plant.
The Pop Rock Candy (ポップロックキャンディ号, Poppu Rokku Kyandi-gō?) was a ship used by Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine.[17]
Its name references Pop Rocks, a brand of candy famous for simulating "explosions" with carbon dioxide gas-bubbles (and infamous for persisting rumors that it can create actual, fatal explosions if consumed with soft drinks).
The Full was a large purple and yellow ship that used Dance Powder to make artificial rain. It had a crocodile figurehead and a tall smokestack in the forecastle deck (which had the Baroque Works jolly roger in its base).
The Billions traveled in multiple ships with various designs, however, all of them had the Baroque Works name and/or jolly roger in their sails.
In the ending of Movie 2, Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine were seen using a relatively small boat with a white sail and no Baroque Works insignia. It's unknown if the same boat was also used by the pair to travel to Whisky Peak or Little Garden.

About sixteen years ago, Crocodile went to the Arabasta Kingdom in search for information on the Ancient Weapon Pluton, as part of his Operation Utopia plan.[18][19] As part of his plan to take over the kingdom and acquire the information, he started Baroque Works as a way to accumulate powerful individuals, resources and manpower, as well as recruiting Nico Robin for her knowledge in history and deciphering the Poneglyphs.[20]
Part of his plan also included starting a civil war in Arabasta, by framing king Nefertari Cobra for the use of Dance Powder, making several areas in the kingdom barren in order to sustain the capital Alubarna.[21]
With the king reputation in danger, the kingdom's princess Nefertari Vivi and the captain of the Royal Guards, Igaram, went undercover to infiltrate the organization and expose the real culprit.[22]
In order to sustain their town of of the organization's Bounty Hunters, Whisky Peak, two Frontier Agents (Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday) targeted the island whale at Reverse Mountain, Laboon, but failed due to the involvement of the Straw Hat Pirates.[23]
As part of the organization way to acquire funds, the town of Whisky Peak, located near the beginning of the Grand Line, was inhabited by Bounty Hunters whose goal was to capture novice pirates for their bounties. When the Straw Hats landed on the island, being led there by Mr. 9 and Miss Wednesday, they were targeted by the hunters and Roronoa Zoro defeated all the 100 hunters on the island.[24] During the battle, two Officer Agents (Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine) arrived and expose Vivi and Igaram as spies, prompting the two to enlist the Straw Hats in their plan to stop the organization plan.[25]
While on vacation, two Officer Agents (Mr. 3 and Miss Goldenweek), receive a new assignment,[26] sending them to Little Garden to collect the Bounties of Dorry and Brogy. While there, they meet up with Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine who are in pursuit of the Straw Hats and Vivi, and the four decide to work together to fulfill their missions.[27] They mange to capture their targets using Mr. 3 Doru Doru no Mi but the Straw Hats managed to fight back and free Vivi and the Giants, and defeating the four agents.[28] Meanwhile, Sanji came across Mr. 3's base, and managed to keep the crew advancements hidden, and acquire an Eternal Pose to Arabasta, while unbeknown to him, caused Crocodile to send out another agent to the field.[29]
On their way to Arabasta Kingdom to stop Baroque Works plans, the Straw Hats encountered Mr. 2 Bon Kurei, unaware of each others identity, and learn about his ability, allowing them to prepare for their fight against the organization.[30][31][32] With the civil war in Arabasta about to begin, Crocodile summons his Officer Agents to give out the final orders to initiate his Operation Utopia,[33] however, due to the involvement of the Straw Hats Pirates his plans are foiled and the organization is disbanded, with the majority of its members arrested.[34]
After the defeat of Baroque Works, the few remaining Officer Agents concoct a plan to release their partners and while they managed to free most of them and build a new home, Crocodile and Mr. 1 decided to stay behind, soon to be joined with Mr. 2 and Mr. 3 before being transferred to Impel Down.[35]
In Impel Down, while tring to save his brother Portgas D. Ace, Luffy encounter Bentham, Galdino and Crocodile, and plan a mass breakout of the prison,[36] with Daz Bonez rejoining Crocodile along the way.[37] As part of the escape plan, Bentham decide to stay behind to secure his friends escape.[38]
Upon arriving to the battle ground the members of the escape team went their separate ways, with Galdino sneaking onto the execution platform in hope of avenging his comrade Mr. 2, fulfilling what he be believed to be his final wish in helping Luffy save his brother.[39]
With the major changes in the world, Crocodile made moves to restart his military utopia, and sought out Dracule Mihawk to join forces, as well as heading towards Karai Bari Island to take back the loan he gave to Buggy to start his mercenary enterprise, however with the later lack of funds, a deal was made and the criminal organization Cross Guild was formed with Buggy as the figure head, gaining the title of Emperor of the Sea and Crocodile and Mihawk as his lieutenants, despite being the de facto leaders. Galdino, who since the escape from Impel Down followed Buggy, stated to be excited to work under Crocodile once again.[40]
Cross Guild's Jolly Roger include the Baroque Works jolly roger, with Buggy's jolly roger replacing the generic skull.
Crocodile, sang Mr. 0
Seperti biasa di One Piece, pimpinan organisasi adalah yang terkuat.
Meski bounty Crocodile dibekukan di 81 juta Belly, angka yang tergolong sangat kecil, kekuatan Buah Suna Suna-nya membuat ia bisa mengalahkan musuh apapun hanya dengan sekali sentuh.
Meski tak diperlihatkan memiliki Haki, Crocodile ini bahkan beraksi dengan cukup oke di Marineford kemudian. Di sana ia bahkan sempat adu kekuatan dengan Doflamingo.
Itulah peringkat 10 anggota Baroque Works terkuat. Gimana menurut kamu?

Paula, sang Miss Doublefinger
Sebagai partner untuk Mr. 1, Paula adalah salah satu perempuan terkuat di Baroque Works.
Ini terutama ia tunjukkan saat melawan Nami. Dari segi kekuatan fisik, Paula punya banyak cara untuk menyakiti musuhnya.
Karena itu, unik juga dia justru bisa dikalahkan oleh trik-trik Nami. Saat Nami masih belum terbiasa menggunakan Clima Tact pula.
Mr. 4 ini sangat kuat. Begitu kuatnya, bahkan, hingga kalau dari segi power dia sebenarnya melampaui Mr. 3.
Kelemahan Mr. 4 adalah kecerdasannya yang kurang. Tapi saat dia dibimbing oleh Miss Merry Christmas, kelemahan ini teratasi.
Misi Miss Goldenweek Bertemu Baroque
Inspirations and Influences[]
According to Eiichiro Oda, Baroque Works was in fact named for the "Baroque" movement that flourished across 18th-century European arts. This style, often emphasizing extravagant and intricate details above all, was seen as a natural parallel to the various agents' flamboyant fashion senses (with Mr. 8 and Mr. 7, in particular, sporting hairstyles strongly resembling the powdered wigs popular to the era).[41]
Masalah Terjemahan dan Dubbing
Semua terjemahan bahasa Inggris profesional—4Kids, Viz, dan Funimation—mengubah gelar "Miss" agen wanita menjadi Ms. yang lebih modern. Selain itu, semua meromanisasi bagian "Bon Kurei" dari nama sandi Mr. 2 menjadi Bon Clay, mungkin salah mengartikannya sebagai nama sebenarnya alih-alih referensi hari raya.
Uniknya, anime 4Kids selanjutnya mengubah sebagian besar nama sandi hari libur untuk mengecilkan hubungannya dengan budaya Jepang: "All-Sunday" menjadi Sunday saja, "Doublefinger" menjadi New Year's Eve, "Goldenweek" menjadi April Fools Day, dan "Merry Christmas" menjadi Groundhog Day.

Organization and Ranks[]
Baroque Works' hierarchy, as explained by Nefertari Vivi.
As head of Baroque Works, Crocodile adopted the alias of Mr. 0, and similarly titled his main partner (and effective chief-of-staff) Nico Robin Miss All-Sunday.[7] This naming scheme was extended through the syndicate's agents (エージェント, Ējento?), roughly two dozen subordinates prominent and powerful enough to receive direct orders from Crocodile:
Agents were organized into twelve male-female teams (excepting Mr. 2 Bon Kurei, an okama effectively allowed to serve as his own partner), usually with emphasis on joining complementary skills. These teams were further divided along two subcategories:
The bulk of Baroque Works' membership, however, consisted of unremarkable foot-soldiers assigned as the agents' subordinates: 200 Billions (ビリオンズ, Birionzu?) for the Officer Agents, and 1,800 Millions (ミリオンズ, Mirionzu?) for the Frontier Agents.[7] These were give more eclectic codenames (Miss Catherina, Mr. Love, etc.) and treated more disposably, though their work could sometimes approach the agents' in complexity and importance.[8][9]
Members could be promoted to higher categories and ranks in the wake of major accomplishments and/or a (preferably fatal) vacancy. This encouraged greater efforts from many—particularly the Billions, who were considered direct candidates for agenthood—but also many internal hostilities, sometimes escalating to outright murder.[10]
In addition to conventional personnel, Baroque Works also employed a number of animals in specialized roles:
[Click here to see the legend of the symbols used][Hide the legend]
Baroque Works was one of the most significant threats the Straw Hats faced as a whole in Paradise (and the second largest, surpassed only by the forces of Enies Lobby). Though ultimately defeated, it was well-organized and effective enough to manufacture a full-scale civil war in one of the Twenty Kingdoms, and nearly unearthed Pluton—a superweapon so elusive that even the World Government's most ambitious intelligence agency had resigned itself to searching only for diagrams.
In enabling this, even the syndicate's common foot-soldiers were cunning and well-trained—if not particularly combat-worthy against the Straw Hats—on the whole. The agents were many times stronger, with the Officer Agents in particular containing eight separate Devil Fruit users; of particular note were Mr. 1 and Mr. 2 Bon Kurei, who nearly killed Roronoa Zoro and Sanji in single combat several times over.
As the agents' field commander, Miss All-Sunday was deadlier still, possessing a Devil Fruit power that could spy on, incapacitate, and assassinate virtually anyone from any distance. In addition, she was—and is—one of the last living individuals able to read Poneglyphs, effectively giving the syndicate closer access to Pluton and other ancient superweapons than any other group in the world.
Finally, the syndicate's leader Crocodile ranked among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, with total mastery of one of the world's most powerful Devil Fruits and the experience of a New World veteran. Notably, he was the first individual to not only defeat Monkey D. Luffy in single combat but do so in multiple battles (a feat matched only by Kaidou of the Four Emperors).
The organization used many different ships to transport their personnel; the Officer Agents, especially, were known to use personalized ships.
The Baroque Gustave (バロックギュスターブ号, Barokku Gyusutābu-gō?) was a ship belonging to Crocodile.[14]
Its name is likely derived from Gustave, a notorious man-eating Nile crocodile from Burundi reported to have killed and eaten over 300 people.
The Kill Sassoon (キルサスーン号, Kiru Sasūn-gō?) was a ship that was used by Mr. 1 and Miss Doublefinger.[15]
Its name is possibly meant as a portmanteau of kill and assassin, referencing the duo's pride in being professional killers.
The Swanda Express was Mr. 2's personalized ship, which was themed after a swan. Some of the ship's features included: pink sails, hand operated paddle wheels, and a swan figurehead.
Drophy, sang Ms. Merry Christmas
Dengan Mogu Mogu no Mi, Ms. Merry Christmas bisa jadi ancaman.
Ia dapat masuk ke tanah, lalu menyerang targetnya mendadak, dan masuk ke tanah lagi saat hendak diserang.
Teknik itu mungkin tidak berguna jika musuhnya jauh lebih kuat dari dia. Namun menghadapi petarung level standar, Ms. Merry Christmas pun tak mudah ditaklukkan.
Yang bikin Ms. Merry Christmas semakin mengancam sebenarnya adalah bila ia memberi instruksi pada Mr. 4. Kekuatan dahsyat Mr. 4 pun jadi lebih efektif bila ia membimbing partnernya itu.
Baroque Works Nama Romanisasi: Barokku Wākusu Nama Resmi Inggris: Baroque Works
Baroque Works[2] adalah sindikat kriminal yang dibentuk oleh Panglima Perang Crocodile untuk mengacaukan dan menaklukkan Kerajaan Alabasta (dan, sebagai tambahan, memperoleh senjata super kuno Pluton). Untuk tujuan ini, mereka melakukan banyak tindakan spionase, sabotase, dan pembunuhan selama bertahun-tahun, yang akhirnya memanipulasi Alabasta ke dalam perang saudara.[4][5]
Sementara sindikat sebagian besar menggunakan pemburu bayaran dan tentara bayaran biasa (termotivasi[3] dengan setengah kebenaran bahwa mereka sedang membangun negara baru yang "ideal"), anggota elitnya berisi pejuang dan mata-mata yang sangat terampil. Meskipun mengalami banyak kemunduran, tujuan akhirnya adalah Operasi Utopia[6] hampir berhasil dalam setiap tujuan, dan hanya terhenti tipis oleh usaha gabungan dari Putri Nefertari Vivi, Bajak Laut Topi Jerami, dan satu unit Marinir yang dipimpin oleh Kapten Smoker.
Setelah kegagalan Operasi Utopia, sindikat itu terbongkar dan dibubarkan, dengan Crocodile dan sebagian besar bawahannya—banyak yang dikalahkan secara pribadi oleh Topi Jerami—ditangkap oleh Marinir. Namun, di tahun-tahun berikutnya, banyak dari mereka yang melarikan diri dan terus memengaruhi dunia peristiwa.
Karena tindakan dan peran mereka, mereka secara kolektif adalah antagonis utama dari Alabasta Saga, dengan anggota yang berbeda menjadi fokus dari setiap alur ceritanya (tidak termasuk Arc Pulau Drum). Beberapa mantan anggota juga berperan sebagai protagonis dari Miss Goldenweek's "Operation: Meet Baroque Works" alur cerita, dan karakter pendukung dalam Arc Impel Down dan Arc Marineford.
Meskipun bukan kru bajak laut sesungguhnya (bahkan, banyak anggotanya secara terbuka meremehkan bajak laut), organisasi tersebut mengidentifikasi dirinya dengan Jolly Roger yang khas, yang dibedakan dengan rapier sebagai pengganti tulang bersilang dan latar belakang sayap ungu muda. Simbol ini sering kali dipajang di kapal dan perlengkapan organisasi; beberapa anggota berpangkat rendah bahkan membawanya di pakaian dan/atau tato.
Pada puncaknya, sindikat ini beranggotakan lebih dari 2.000 orang, dengan operasi yang mencakup wilayah Paradise di Grand Line hingga East Blue.[2] Crocodile sangat menegakkan kerahasiaan, dengan sebagian besar (mungkin semua) anggota diberi nama sandi dan sering dilarang berinteraksi dengan personel berpangkat tinggi; identitasnya sendiri dijaga kerahasiaannya setinggi mungkin, dan setiap potensi ancaman segera ditandai untuk dieksekusi.
Sehari-harinya, sebagian besar anggota ditugaskan untuk menggalang dana, khususnya melalui pekerjaan pemburu bayaran. Mereka yang berada di Alabasta terkadang melakukan tugas sabotase yang lebih langsung, misalnya penyelundupan dan penggunaan Dance Powder (sumber kekeringan yang terkenal), merusak kota-kota yang dilanda kekeringan, dan menyebarkan kebohongan untuk menimbulkan kekacauan dan permusuhan di antara warga. Bila memungkinkan, Raja Nefertari Cobra dan para loyalisnya dijebak atas perbuatan ini, yang secara bertahap meletakkan dasar bagi perang saudara penuh.
Nico Robin, sang Ms. All Sunday
Semasa dia bergabung dengan Baroque Works, level kekuatan Robin sudah tinggi.
Dengan Hana Hana no Mi, Robin bisa dalam sekejap melumpuhkan petarung tangguh dengan mematahkan punggung mereka.
Meski begitu, Robin punya kelemahan melawan musuh yang terlalu besar atau musuh Logia. Kelemahan itu membuat Robin tak bisa mengatasi Crocodile dengan mudah.
Setelah dia gabung Topi Jerami pun level Robin kira-kira seperti itu. Ia bisa mematahkan punggung sekelompok musuh sekaligus, tapi jika musuhnya sudah level terlalu besar atau terlalu kuat, Robin minimal hanya bisa membantu dan membiarkan Topi Jerami lain mengurus mereka.
