History

Fish-Man Island Saga

Fish-Man Island Arc

Kasagoba, Hammond and Hyouzou rode on Sea Beasts to intercept the Straw Hat Pirates outside Fish-Man Island. They gave the crew two choices: join the New Fish-Man Pirates or be crushed before being able to enter the island. After Monkey D. Luffy rejected the invitation, the Straw Hats used the their ship’s Coup de Burst to launch themselves into the island. Kasagoba was surprised by the ship’s unexpected maneuver. After wondering what to do next, they returned to the Fish-Man District to report to their captain, Hody Jones.

Kasagoba, alongside Hammond and Hyouzou, later went to Mermaid Cove in another attempt to capture Luffy, but they were easily repelled. The attack knocked out Hammond and Kasagoba, but Hyouzou was able to block it and remained uninjured. After the Straw Hats left the cove, Hyouzou carried his two unconscious companions away.
