What role does Dorry play in the Little Garden, Egghead, and Elbaph Arcs?
During the Little Garden Arc, Dorry is tricked by Mr. 3 into thinking he has fatally wounded his friend, Brogy. It's later revealed that Dorry's weapon was too blunt to inflict a deadly injury. Concurrently, Sanji finds an Eternal Pose to Arabasta in Mr. 3's wax house, enabling the Straw Hats to leave the garden. The narrative also suggests that a human, likely Arnote, previously escaped Little Garden before their log reset.

Appearance
Dorry is a well-built giant with a long beard. He generally dresses in a viking attire with a helmet that goes over his eyes. He is so large that Luffy can fit in the palm of his hand. He is 160 years old, which means that he is a giant in the prime of his life.[3]
Dorry is a good-natured giant, though his pride can sometimes cloud him from making the best judgement calls. He firmly believes in the customs from his homeland and follows them with great honor, even doing so while severely wounded.
Due to his pride, he rushed into the conclusion that Luffy was responsible for the bomb in his drink, seeing that he and Vivi were the only ones around (to his knowledge, at least).
Like many characters in One Piece, Dorry has a unique laugh, starting his with "Gegya" (i.e. Gegyagyagyagya!).
Relationships
Brogy
Dorry is Brogy'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.
Monkey D. Luffy
Dorry instantly struck up a friendship with Luffy as well, after Luffy was eaten by a dinosaur and Dorry saved him. They had a relationship as strong as that of two old friends. Luffy took great delight in learning of his daily battles with Brogy, and the ever-present mutual respect the two giants had for one another. Their relationship was briefly soured when Dorry suffered an internal explosion after drinking alcohol that was given to him. Knowing Brogy would never sabotage their duel and seeing no other potential culprits, Dorry presumes the Straw Hats responsible. He and Luffy come to blows, as Luffy realizes he has to calm the giant warrior down. After observing Luffy's dedication to keeping him out of an unfair duel, Dorry realizes the Straw Hats are innocent and reconciles with the young captain. Despite this, he still goes off to fight Brogy in his condition, much to Luffy's protests. When the battle is further sabotaged by Mr. 3, Luffy makes a point to punish the Baroque Works agent severely for ruining the integrity of the giant's duel.
Two years later in Egghead, Dorry and Brogy came to Egghead to help Luffy against the Marines. They are also aware that Luffy is Nika.
Shanks
Dorry and Brogy are close friends with Shanks as he called the Emperor as "brother". Dorry and Brogy agreed to aid Shanks against the Kid Pirates.
Abilities and Powers
Initially, Dorry 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, Dorry's bounty jumped to 1,800,000,000.[8]
As a demonstration of his strength, he fought on a par with Brogy 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.[9] 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.[10]
As a Giant, Dorry has immense physical strength. Together with Brogy, Dorry was able to injure and fight off twomembers of the Five Elders.
Dorry is also capable of easily killing the dinosaurs of Little Garden, prey he hunts daily.[11] Together with Brogy 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.[12]
Dorry also survived a barrel of liquor that exploded inside his stomach, and still managed to fight Luffy. The latter also, when Dorry intended to fight him and Vivi ran away, stated that it would have made no sense to run away in front of an opponent like him.[13] Dorry's defeat by Luffy's hand is in fact partly to be attributed to the serious conditions in which the giant was living, as well as the fact that the latter had underestimated the pirate.[14] Later, despite all the injuries he suffered, also managed to immobilize Luffy himself[15] and fight with Brogy, eventually being defeated by the latter only because of Galdino, who with his powers had benefited his rival.[16]
Swordsmanship
Dorry is a powerful swordsman, having enough strength and skill to fight equivalently with Broggy. With a sword, he can launch a flying slash attack alongside Brogy that is powerful enough to kill the Island Eater and also sink the Victoria Punk.
Dorry fights with a shield and a long sword. His previous sword was called the Terry Sword, but after a hundred years of battle, the blade lost its sharpness and eventually broke. Dorry later replaced it with a new sword.
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 this sword and Brogy's axe shattered.[12] In the VIZ manga and Funimation subs, this is called Hakoku Sovereignty, while it keeps its name in the Funimation dub.
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.[17] 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"): Dorry and Brogy 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.[18] 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.
Skilja (隔,Sukīruda?, literally meaning "Separate"): While parrying a attack, Dorry and Brogy use their shields to strike the enemy back.[18] "Skilja" means "separate" in many Scandinavian languages. In the VIZ manga, this is called Skilja Split.
History
Past
Dorry was one of the two leaders of the Giant Warrior Pirates alongside Brogy.[19] Their crew was one of the fiercest in the world, as the crew was composed of Giants.
His life as a pirate ended when he entered a contest of honor with his fellow captain Brogy over the size of the fish the two caught. It was revealed in a flashback that a little girl had asked which one had been bigger. Brogy and Dorry went to the isolated island of Little Garden to settle the feud with a duel, and have been doing so for the past 100 years.[20]
Arabasta Saga
Little Garden Arc
When the Straw Hat Pirates came to the island, Dorry hung out with Luffy, Vivi, and Karoo. When he was drinking rum that was given to him, an explosion occurred inside his stomach. He believe the bomb was placed there by the Straw Hats and began to attack Luffy.[21] However, Luffy was able to subdue the giant and he accepted the Straw Hats were not responsible for the sabotage.[22] The volcano erupted and he was barely able to stand, yet, he trudged forward to battle Brogy despite his new bomb induced injuries, but not before trapping Luffy under the skeleton of a giant Sea King, in order to prevent him from interfering. With a little extra sabotage of Mr. 3, Dorry lost the duel.[23]
Presumed dead at first, Dorry regained consciousness sometime after the battle with Mr. 3 and he and Brogy embraced, both glad to be alive. Dorry believed he survived the blow as their weapons have grown old and too weak to cause serious harm.[24] Dorry and Brogy then gave the Straw Hats a special farewell by blasting them through a legendary giant fish that blocked their way.[25]
Water 7 Saga
Miss Goldenweek's "Operation: Meet Baroque Works"
After he saw Miss Goldenweek and her allies depart from Little Garden, Dorry continued his fight with Brogy.[26]
Fish-Man Island Saga
From the Decks of the World
Dorry continued to duel with Brogy on Little Garden two years later, with no end in sight. Newspapers are seen flying in the background, suggesting that they have read about the Straw Hats' return.[27]
Final Saga
Egghead Arc
Dorry is seen on Elbaph with Brogy, having put their duel on hold, where Shanks asked the two of them for help with fighting Eustass Kid.[28] Upon Shanks's command, he and Brogy would later sink all the Kid Pirates and 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.[29]
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.[30] 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.[31]
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.[32] 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.[33]
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. Upon realization that they had to make their escape from Egghead, Dorry blew his Viking horn, signaling this message to his crew. 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.[34]
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.[35] As they ran, Warcury's flames begun to catch up to Dorry and Brogy, Luffy in his Gear 5th form attempted to attack Warcury again, leading him to hurt his hand once more.[36] In the end, they decided that further attacks weren't worth it, and favored simply running.[37] 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.[38]
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.[39] 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.[40] Their celebrations on the assistance from the machine were quickly dashed as Saturn suddenly leaped aboard their ship, latching onto the front.[41]
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.[42] 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.[43] 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.[44]
Elbaph Arc
Two days later, upon waking up from passing out drunk during the party, Dorry and the others discovered that Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji and Chopper along with Sunny were nowhere to be seen.[45] Sometime following that, Dorry and Brogy received a newspaper reporting that they had attacked Egghead with Luffy, increasing their bounties to 1,800,000,000 Belly. The pair were worried, as they had not intended to make a comeback, but accepted it nevertheless.[46] Not long after, the crew arrived back at Elbpah, where they spotted and greeted Colon, before proceeding up a rainbow by means of a Painter. While floating on the rainbow up to Elbaph's sun world, the crew ran into Hajrudin and Stansen, whom they greeted. After sailing into the village, they greeted the missing Straw Hats as well, who had arrived to the village just earlier by other means.[47]
After touching down on the village coast, Dorry and Brogy worked with Hajrudin to prepare a large celebration for the Straw Hats while the Straw Hats visited Jaguar D. Saul at the Walrus School.[48] Following their return, the party began.[49] As the party went on, the crew became more and more drunk whilst other events transpired around Elbaph, including Loki being freed, and the God's Knights attempting a plan to kidnap the children. When a branch of the Adam Tree that they were on caught on fire (as a result of Loki being released by Zoro and Luffy), the group was collectively shocked to see a massive Draugr rise from the forest and strike down the fire-fighting Svarr sent to stop it.[50]
Working quickly, Dorry and Brogy sobered up and gathered their crew as Ghost and Niddhoggr MMA rose to attack the village. As the villagers began to flee, the pair arrived in the Great Eirik, which was prepared to be used as a Svarr, and struck down the MMA using Hakoku. As they prepared to take the fight to the rest of the MMA, they were surprised to see Scopper Gaban, who had arrived to assist.[51] The battle continued through the forest as more and more MMA made their presence known. Dorry deduced that the Draugr MMA were akin to soldiers, while Brogy recognized many of the MMA as things children would be afraid of. As a result, they were able to easily defeat a Loki MMA, due to the children who imagined it not knowing how strong Loki truly was. As they continued to sail through the skies, they came across the sleepwalking children and firefighters, who were actively trying to put out the flames the children were about to walk into. Fortunately, the fire was put out just in time, leading to cheers from Dorry, Brogy, and their crew.[52] Afterward, the pair returned to fighting MMA, easily defeating multiple of them.[53]
Translation and Dub Issues
The giants' names from the manga.
The Giants' names from the Red Data book.
So far, Oda has provided two versions of his name: Dorry was seen in the manga and later Dorey appeared in the data books.
Due to certain reasons, the entire Little Garden Arc was completely skipped in the 4Kids English dub. This created a plot hole as Dorry and Brogy's appearance not only introduced the concept of giants to the entire story, but it was relevant in certain later events concerning Oimo and Kashii.
Also, Dorry was also mistranslated as Dorry the Green Giant, when in fact he is the Blue. This stems from the fact that the kanji used for the word "Blue" (青) can also be taken to mean "Green", depending on the context.
In One Piece Color Walk 2, Dorry's height was given as 1190 cm.[54] This is most likely incorrect, as Oda later stated in an SBS that the minimum height for a giant is 12 meters.[55]
Dorry's favorite foods are beer and plesiosaur meat.[2]
Dorry was likely named after former professional wrestler Dory Funk Jr., with Dorry's Terry Sword possibly referencing Dory's brother and fellow wrestler, Terry Funk.
