Personality[]
Like Dorry, Brogy is a good natured giant, however, his pride can sometimes get the best of him. He is a firm believer of the customs of fighting from his homeland and follows them with much honor. He would follow these even if he were severely wounded. Despite seemingly defeating Dorry after so long, Brogy did not feel any happiness when he sensed something was wrong during their battle that Mr. 3 interfered with.
Brogy has his own unique laugh: "Gaba" (i.e. Gababababababa!).
Relationships[]
Dorry[]
Dorry and Brogy fighting.
Brogy is Dorry's best friend. However because of the argument they had 100 years ago, they were engaged in a life and death battle against each other as per their homeland's customs. Despite this however, they are still the best of friends and deeply respect each other. Dorry and Brogy's competitive relationship with one another is comparable to that of Zoro and Sanji.
Straw Hat Pirates[]
He befriends the Straw Hat Pirates during their stay in Little Garden. He inspires Usopp to want to travel to Elbaph someday.
Two years later, Brogy and Dorry headed to Egghead to help the Straw Hat Pirates. They are also aware that Luffy is Nika.
Shanks[]
Brogy and Dorry are old friends of Shanks as well calling the Emperor as "brother". Brogy and Dorry aid Shanks against the Kid Pirates.
Abilities and Powers[]
Initially, Brogy had a bounty of 
100,000,000 on his head, an indication of his danger. Moreover, like other giants, he possesses superhuman strength and resistance. However, having been one of the two captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates, he was extremely strong even compared to the other individuals of his race and had authority over one of the strongest crews in the world. After the Egghead Incident, Brogy’s bounty jumped to 1,800,000,000.[6]
As a demonstration of his strength, he fought on a par with Dorry for a hundred years and together with the latter he managed to defeat such great creatures that not even the other giants of their crew would have been able to capture.[7] The strength of the two giants is in fact such that Galdino, a member of Baroque Works who is capable of defeating a pirate with a bounty of 42,000,000, said he could in no way defeat them without resorting to deception, even with the help from Miss Golden Week, Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine[8]
Brogy has a strong will and was capable of resisting a powerful blast of Topman Warcury's Supreme King Haki.
Physical Abilities[]
Brogy resorting to unarmed combat.
As a Giant, Brogy has immense physical strength. He is capable of defeating even a Marine Vice-Admiral with relative ease. Together with Dorry, Brogy was able to injure and fight off two members of the Five Elders.
Brogy is capable of easily killing the dinosaurs of Little Garden, prey he hunts daily, even remaining virtually impassive to their bite.[9] Together with Dorry he also managed to pierce the Island Eater, despite the great distance that separated them. Even Luffy, after seeing them perform this feat, stated that the two were monstrously powerful.[10]
Brogy's strength is also such as to allow him to free himself from Galdino's wax, despite being as hard as steel.[11]
Weapons[]
- Further information: Bruiser Axe
In combat, Brogy used a shield and a battle axe. His previous axe was called the Bruiser Axe,[12] but after a hundred years of battle, the blade lost its sharpness and eventually broke. Brogy later replaced it with a new axe. With an axe, he can launch a Flying Slash Attack, powerful enough to kill the Island Eater.
Techniques[]
- Hakoku (覇国, Hakoku?, literally meaning "Warrior Nation"): Putting all of their strength into it, Dorry and Brogy each call upon Elbaph's "warrior code", and slash their weapons at the ocean, creating two compressed air beams (Dorry's is blue, while Brogy's is red) that will slice through anything in their path, even the ocean itself. However, the amount of power needed for this attack proved to be too much for the giants' rusty weapons, so both Dorry's sword and this axe shattered. The only thing they are incapable of piercing is the "bloodstained snake" (血に染まるヘビ, chi ni somaru hebi?).[11] In the Viz Manga and Funimation subs, this is called Hakoku Sovereignty.
- Taiyo Noko (
太陽鋸 , Taiyō Noko?, literally meaning "Sun Saw"): Dorry and Brogy stand on opposite sides of their opponent and strike simultaneously. Dorry uses his sword to slash through their neck while Brogy uses his axe to slash their torso, cutting their enemy in three. This attack was first used against Shepherd Ju Peter in his Sandworm form.[13] The name of the attack is pronounced Taiyōnoko, rather than the standard Taiyō Nokogiri (太陽鋸?), leading it to sound like "Child of the Sun" (太陽の子, Taiyō no Ko?). In the Viz Manga, this is called Sun Saw. - Svalinn (
太陽の盾 , Suvarin?, literally meaning "Sun-Shield"): Brogy and Dorry stand next to each other and use their shields to parry an attack together. This technique was first used against Topman Warcury in his Fengxi form.[14] The technique is named after Svalinn, a legendary shield from Nordic mythology which stands in front of the sun. In the Viz Manga, this is called Svalinn Sun-Shield.
History[]
Past[]
Brogy and Dorry are posed a question.
Brogy, along with Dorry, were once two of the most feared pirates in the world as no one could bring them down. One day on a hunting trip, each had slayed a massive Sea King. Then, while they were celebrating their great catches, a little girl asked them both which Sea King was bigger. They could not agree on which one was bigger, so, as per the rules of Elbaph, they started to duel on Little Garden.
Arabasta Saga[]
Little Garden Arc[]
One hundred years passed, and their Sea Kings' corpses had turned to bones. They continued the battle every time the volcano on the island exploded, the duel always ending in a draw.
One day the Straw Hat Pirates arrived on the island on their way to Arabasta with Vivi. After Luffy and Vivi went to explore, and Sanji and Zoro went to find food, Nami and Usopp were left on the Going Merry to fend for themselves. Meanwhile Brogy was exploring and came across the Going Merry and scared Nami and Usopp half to death.[15] Nami and Usopp thought Brogy was going to eat them, but he just wanted some alcohol, which they gave him. As a dinosaur stumbled upon them, Brogy sliced its head off, frightening Nami and Usopp further, who then played dead, only Brogy thought they had fainted.
He then brought them to his home and started cooking for himself. Usopp and Nami panicked and ran away when he was not looking and ended up being chased by other carnivorous animals. They were saved by Brogy, who in turn provided them a large amount of dinosaur meat, but Usopp and Nami, who were still scared, tried to wait it out until the Log Pose set but soon found out that it would take a whole year for the log to lock onto the next island.
After the volcano exploded, Brogy and Dorry went to fight each other.[16] After yet another tie, the two giants returned to their camps to relax and recuperate. Elsewhere, Dorry was defeated due to the injuries he had suffered from a bomb explosion that was hidden in rum he was consuming.[17] Brogy fought Dorry and defeated him.[18] He rejoiced in victory after years of fighting. Mr. 3 appeared and called out to Brogy that he was the one who helped him to defeat Dorry. Brogy moved to attack Mr. 3 but was suddenly held captive by Mr. 3's wax, which had immobilized Brogy's feet.[19]
Soon, Luffy arrived and battled the Baroque Works agents to free Brogy and the Straw Hat Pirates.[20]
Brogy and Dorry farewell the Straw Hat Pirates.
Later, Brogy learned that Dorry had survived the fatal blow. Dorry believed that their weapons had grown old and weak over the years and were now unable to cause fatal blows.[21] The duo headed to the ocean to bid their new friends, the Straw Hats, farewell. They warned the pirates to continue heading straight, no matter what, as the crew disembarked from the isle. The Island Eater appeared to attack them, but the giants swiftly destroyed it, letting the Straw Hat Pirates keep sailing with their newly obtained Log Pose for Arabasta. The volcano erupted again for them to continue dueling, still not remembering why they do so.[22]
Water 7 Saga[]
Miss Goldenweek's "Operation: Meet Baroque Works"[]
Brogy continued his fight with Dorry after Miss Goldenweek and her comrades left Little Garden.[23]
Fish-Man Island Saga[]
From the Decks of the World[]
Brogy was still dueling it out with Dorry two years later on Little Garden with no end in sight. Newspapers were flying in the background, suggesting that they have read about the Straw Hats' return.[24]
Final Saga[]
Egghead Arc[]
Brogy and Dorry sink the Victoria Punk and Kid Pirates.
Brogy was seen on Elbaph with Dorry, seemingly ending their duel, where Shanks asked the two of them for help with fighting Eustass Kid.[25] On Shanks's command, he and Dorry would later sink all of the Kid Pirates along with their ship with Hakoku and declared to them that if they came and willingly aimed a gun against someone else's land, they should be prepared to suffer the same fate.[26]
Dorry and Brogy arrive on Egghead alongside their crew.
Sometime later, during the Egghead Incident, Dorry and Brogy both made their way to Egghead. Many of the Marines present on the island were left highly confused upon seeing their giant ship. Upon hearing their confusion on the topic of their arrival, Dorry and Brogy both explained that they had arrived to save Luffy, while also attacking many of the Marines.[27] Both captains called out to Oimo and Kashii to lead the assault around the sides of the island, and to sink any Marine ships that they spotted.[28]
Dorry and Brogy save Luffy from Ju Peter.
They later stumbled upon Franky, Atlas, Bonney and Kuma after Brogy smacked Vice Admiral Tosa with his axe. They were unaware that Franky was part of the Straw Hat crew and told him they were looking for the Straw Hat Crew, though dismissed Franky's concerns that they were hostile towards them. They ordered their crew members to bring Franky's group to their ship before proceeding to make their way into the main area of the island after Bonney told them that they would find Luffy, Sanji and Vegapunk there.[29] Dorry and Brogy continued to make their way across Egghead while the Five Elders appeared and confronted Luffy. While facing them, Luffy was devoured whole by Shepherd Ju Peter. Dorry and Brogy witnessed this, and quickly made their way over. They simultaneously decapitated Ju Peter, freeing Luffy, and greeting him for the first time in two years.[30]
Dorry and Brogy knock Warcury away.
Dorry and Brogy had a warm reception with Luffy, both glad to see him after two years. Both were also surprised to see his Gear 5 appearance, remarking that it was identical to a God in Elbaph. Before they could leave, Topman Warcury confronted them, stating that escape was impossible. After disorienting them using a burst of haki, Warcury attempted to slice them using his sharpened tusks, prompting Dorry and Brogy to block with their shields. When questioned by Warcury on why they were bothering to help Luffy, both stated that he was their friend, before bashing Warcury away using their shields. The attempted attacks didn't end, with Saturn shooting orbs of venom at them. Luffy used his own abilities to deflect the orbs back at the Elders, causing a massive explosion. To the shock of Dorry and Brogy, the Elders simply regenerated from the damage, causing them to realize that fighting them would be fruitless.[31]
While they retreated, Ju Peter attempted to suck them in to prevent the three from from escaping. Luffy managed to stop this by kicking a building into the Elder's mouth, but then ran out of energy and de-transformed out of his Gear 5 form. Dorry was shocked that Luffy suddenly became an old man, but Brogy offered to feed him some emergency Hakarl ration from Elbaph, which allowed Luffy to gain back his normal physique. Luffy then attempted to stop Warcury by punching him with Red Roc, after Dorry informed them that he was charging at them, but Luffy only hurt himself in the process due to Warcury's tough hide.[32] As they ran, Warcury's flames begun to catch up to Dorry and Brogy, Brogy warned Luffy that attacking Warcury would not work only form him to strike Warcury in Gear 5th form, leading Luffy to hurt his hand once more.[33] In the end, they decided that further attacks weren't worth it, and favored simply running.[34] To their luck, Warcury and Ju Peter eventually abandoned their pursuit and left to deal with more important matters, allowing the three to escape undeterred.[35]
Luffy, Dorry, and Brogy make it back to their ship.
After running for quite some time, the trio managed to finally arrive at the Giant's ship, leaping on just as it was preparing to depart Egghead. Despite this, their success would be short-lived, as Marcus Mars used his flight abilities to pursue them out onto the sea. Mars fired an energy beam at the ship, and to make matters worse, the water had suddenly taken on rubber-like properties, resulting in the boat being rocked wildly. Fortunately, Luffy became reenergized after eating, and transformed into his Gear 5 form. Dorry and Brogy both began to dance afterward as the Drums of Liberation began to play.[36] Realizing that severity of the situation, the pair stopped dancing, instead issuing orders and moving to put out the fire that Mars had started on the ship. After Brogy issued the order to quickly move away from the coast, both giants were shocked when the Iron Giant suddenly reemerged from the water, striking Warcury.[37] Their celebrations on the assistance from the machine were quickly dashed as Saturn suddenly leaped aboard their ship, latching onto the front.[38]
Dorry and Brogy celebrate victory with their friends.
Dorry and Brogy led their crew in the defense against Saturn, with all of the giants quickly equipping and utilizing their shields. They all stood back and cheered as Luffy and Bonney unleashed a powerful attack on Saturn, launching him back off of the ship.[39] Unfortunately, the onslaught of attacks continued as Peter suddenly leapt off the island, intent on using his large body to destroy the Giant's ship. Suddenly, at the same time, the Iron Giant undid a knot somewhere on its body, resulting in a massive burst of Joy Boy's Haki suddenly being unleashed upon the entire island. Dorry and Brogy were both left completely shocked and confused as the Haki forced most of the Five Elders back to Mary Geoise, knocked out most of the Marines, and made escape a much easier task.[40] In the aftermath, Dorry commented on the Haki possibly being stronger than Shanks'. The two then made the decision to push off of Egghead, now having the chance to flee with all of their enemies down. The pair would later start a party with their crew, Luffy, and Usopp, holding up the former as he weakly begged for them to save it until he recovered.[41]
Elbaph Arc[]
Two days later, upon waking up from passing out drunk during the party, Brogy and the others discovered that Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji and Chopper along with Sunny were nowhere to be seen.[42]

Translation and Dub Issues[]
 |
 |
So far, Oda has provided two versions of his name: Brogy was seen in the manga and later Burogy appeared in the databooks.
They are edited out in the English dub, by 4Kids Entertainment, along with the entire Little Garden story arc. However, in the made-for-U.S. game One Piece: Grand Adventure, Brogy replaced Big Pan in the Davy Back Fight stage, which was renamed to a generic pirate ship.

Trivia[]
- In One Piece Color Walk 2, Brogy's height was given as around 1020 cm.[43] This is most likely incorrect, as Oda later stated in an SBS that the minimum height for a giant is 12 meters.[44]
- Brogy's favorite foods are beer and Triceratops meat.[2]
- Brogy's helmet resembles the Waterloo Helmet, an ornamental helm of Celtic design.
- Similar to Dorry, Brogy could also have been named after a former professional wrestler: Bruiser Brody, with the first part of his ring name being a nod to the Bruiser Axe, Brogy's former weapon.
