Figure #18 rounds out this One Piece WT100 wave with one of the World Government’s most unpredictable former Admirals. Kuzan, better known to most fans as Aokiji, gets the Oda-illustrated treatment here, and the result leans hard into his laid-back, guarded posture rather than the ice powers he’s usually associated with.

Arms crossed, glasses on, that curly afro and flat cap combo instantly recognizable even before you clock the trench coat. This is Kuzan in his post-Marineford, wandering-the-world phase, dressed down from his Admiral coat into the greenish traveling outfit he adopted afterward. The pose itself is quiet and defensive, arms folded tight across his chest, which fits a character who’s always felt more like a drifting philosopher than a soldier following orders.

The WT100 series continues to deliver here because the source material isn’t recycled anime stills or generic reference art. Oda drew this pose specifically for his 100th volume milestone, so figures like Kuzan exist in a pose you genuinely can’t find replicated anywhere else in the One Piece figure catalog. The sculptors matched the linework closely too, right down to the slight asymmetry in his afro and the worn texture on his boots.

Six total figures make up this wave, and Kuzan’s inclusion is a nice one for fans who’ve followed his arc from Marine hero to wandering wildcard. If your One Piece shelf skews toward the Marines and former World Government figures, #18 is worth grabbing.
