This is about the fishman named Hack. For the human, see Hack (Human).

Hundredth Dan Hack is a fishman member of the Revolutionary Army. He went to Dressrosa to investigate the arms trafficking there and competed at the Corrida Colosseum for the Mera Mera no Mi.

Appearance

Hack after being turned into a toy.

Hack is a fishman, with spotted skin, scales under his eyelids, sharp teeth, and gills on the sides of his neck. The fishman has a muscular stature, with long light blue flowing hair and a thick blue moustache.

Similar to Kuroobi, he wears an open gi with a black belt.

When transformed into a toy, he appears to be shaped like a dog.

Personality

Hack seems to be a calm and proud person, and follows a dream where a path of friendship may be formed by fighting. For that reason, he will continue fighting. He finds fighting battles to be honorable and thus, dislikes those who show a lack of respect toward a fight such as Bartolomeo. He is very honorable and dislikes attacking an opponent from the back, but he will do it if said opponent is not worthy of his respect, as he did to Bartolomeo, who was urinating on the side of the fighting ring and was, in Hack's opinion, not taking the battle seriously.

Relationships

Jinbe

He is a dear friend of Jinbe, and also shares the same dream - to have a friendship between humans and fishmen. However, the way differs between the two, as Hack stated that he wants it "by fists".

Revolutionary Army

Koala

He seems to be working closely with Koala. He intended to get into contact with her after losing the Corrida Colosseum tournament but was unable to after he was turned into a toy by Sugar and forced to work.

Sabo

He also works closely with Sabo.

Abilities and Powers

As a fishman, he is at least ten times stronger than an average human, and twice that in the water. However, as he is taking part in the Corrida Colosseum fights, a location in the New World, as well as from the demonstration of a high-level Fishman Karate attack, it is implied that Hack's much stronger than that.

He was able to stop an assault from a large gladiator by grabbing his opponent's spiked club, with the man commenting that he was unable to move his weapon in Hack's grip.

Fishman Karate

Hack is an instructor in Fishman Karate, in comparison to Koala's status as substitute instructor. He uses Fishman Karate to attack his opponents with great strength.

Fishman Jujutsu

Hack is a Fishman Jujutsu martial artist, although he has not been seen using any techniques.

History

Past

At an unknown time in the past, he became friends with Jinbe of the Royal Shichibukai . He also became a member of the Revolutionary Army.

Dressrosa Arc

Hack, Sabo, and Koala arrived at Dressrosa in order to put a stop to a weapons trade that the Donquixote Family managed.

Hack entered the Corrida Colosseum to compete for the Mera Mera no Mi. For the battle royale, he was placed in Block B.

After Block B's battle royale had started, one of the fighters taunted Hack for being a fishman, asking why a "freak" like him had entered a human tournament. Eyes closed, the fishman mused over how pitiful the man's statements were, remarking that they are nothing but the words of a puppet, and that if he wants to talk, he should at least do it with his fists. Enraged, Hack's opponent rushes forward and attacks him with a giant spiked club, which the fishman catches with one hand. As the man wonders why he can't move, Hack defeats him with Fishman Karate, sending him flying away. Hack then announces his desire to continue pursuing his dream of forming friendships through fighting, in the same spirit as his friend Jinbe.

Hack attacks Bartolomeo's back before being defeated.

As he continued to defeat opponent after opponent with his Fishman Karate, Hack gained popularity from both the crowd and Gatz, who heartily cheered him on. When Bartolomeo began to pee over the side of the arena in front of the entire audience, Hack approached him, angrily commenting how there are people who were trying to fight seriously, and that he had no choice but to attack the Super Rookie from behind. As the crowd cheered him on, Hack unleashed his attack, only for it to be blocked by Bartolomeo's Bari Bari no Mi ability, which crushed the fishman's hand, severely injuring him. As the spectators and Gatz gape in confusion over what had just happened, Hack writhed in pain on the arena's floor, with the ferocious Bartolomeo leering over him. Continuing what he had started, the vicious Super Rookie then finished Hack off with a brutal kick to the face.

Sometime later, he was supposed to receive treatment for his injuries but instead, he was thrown in an underground dungeon filled with broken toys along with some of the disqualified participants. Hack commented that it was safe to assume that they won't be receiving medical treatment at all.

After Ricky is revealed to be the former king of Dressrosa, Riku Dold III, Hack was seen secretly speaking with Koala by means of a Den Den Mushi.

Hack was later seen in the underground trade port, having been transformed into a toy dog and forced to work. While moving crates, he complained bitterly that Koala was waiting for his report.

When Sugar lost consciousness, Hack transformed back into his original form. He was then informed by Koala that Sabo was making his way to the basement.

After Sabo and Koala arrived at the underground trade port through the surface, Hack was seen standing alongside them.
