Smoker is a Marine Vice Admiral commanding G-5's Unit 01. His relentless pursuit of Monkey D. Luffy ignited in Loguetown, where Luffy's smile facing execution mirrored Gol D. Roger's defiance, cementing Smoker's obsession to capture him. This drove Smoker to leave Loguetown and chase the Straw Hat Pirates into the Grand Line. He wields the power of the Logia-type Moku Moku no Mi (Smoke-Smoke Fruit) and a Seastone-tipped jitte, effective against Devil Fruit users. Smoker is muscular and tall, constantly smoking two cigars. After the timeskip, his appearance features a scar running from forehead to right eye, longer slicked-back hair with shaved sides, black glasses, and his signature Marine justice coat worn like a cape. During the Pirate Expo on Delta Island in *One Piece: Stampede*, Smoker operates undercover with Tashigi. Investigating Buena Festa, he uncovers Festa's conspiracy with Douglas Bullet and the Marines' planned Buster Call. He clashes with Sanji amidst the chaos, but after learning the Buster Call's true manipulative purpose, acknowledges the Marines were deceived. As the conflict intensifies, Smoker joins an alliance of enemies against Bullet. He coordinates attacks with allies like Sabo, combining their Logia powers to exploit openings created by Trafalgar Law and Crocodile, demonstrating tactical flexibility that overrides strict Marine protocol when confronting greater threats. Following Bullet's defeat, Smoker contacts Marine leadership to cancel the secondary Buster Call, judging it unnecessary once the threat ended, showcasing his independent judgment against bureaucratic excess. Smoker adheres to a personal code of justice, prioritizing civilian and subordinate protection over the Marines' Absolute Justice, evident in his concern for Loguetown residents and refusal of unearned commendations. His moral integrity permits temporary alliances with pirates like the Straw Hats against larger dangers, though he consistently reaffirms his intent to capture them under normal circumstances.
