Squard

Biodata

History

Squard brought his crew to Marineford as part of Whitebeard’s allied fleet. At the start of the battle, he led them into the bay and loudly declared that he would die for “Pops” 26 27.

During the fighting, Akainu approached Squard outside the bay. Squard later charged back into the bay visibly furious 39 40. When he reached the Moby Dick, he told Whitebeard that the allied crews had suffered heavy losses. Despite Jiang Lin’s warning, Squard stabbed Whitebeard in the chest 49 50.

Squard accused Whitebeard of making a secret deal to spare his own crew and Ace at the expense of the allied crews. He also said he hated Gol D. Roger and resented not being told that Ace was Roger’s son; his alleged deal is presented as Squard’s accusation, not an established fact 50. Marco restrained him, while Jiang Lin removed Whitebeard’s injury with the Paw-Paw Fruit and transferred the damage to Squard. Whitebeard then stopped Jiang Lin from attacking him again and embraced Squard as a misguided son 50.
