The E.O. Captain (EO社大尉 EO-sha taii), real name unknown, was a prominent mercenary belonging to the Extra Order mercenary group. He was an ex-soldier who fought in battle in Liberia.
Appearance[]
The Captain was an adult Caucasian man of South African nationality. He had pale skin, a tall and muscular build, long blond hair tied into a ponytail in the back, and thin facial hair. He wore dark circular sunglasses and had a scar/stitch on the skin around his left eye. He wore a camouflaged military jacket and pants and used an AKS-74U rifle for a weapon.
Personality[]
He had a sadistic personality and had no problem with killing an excessive number of people to get the job done, remarking that it was a boring time in Liberia since most of the people whom he murdered were children and old men. He also considered himself to be a person looking for a good battle.
History[]
As shown on his cigarette lighter, the Captain fought in various places in Africa from 1981 to 1992, including in Liberia.[1]
Black Lagoon[]
After Hotel Moscow hired the Lagoon Company to steal an Asahi Industries disk with information pertaining to the development of nuclear weapons, one of the managers for Asahi, Kageyama, hired the Captain and his men to prevent the disk from going directly to Balalaika in Roanapur. Accordingly, the Captain and many soldiers went to the Yellow Flag and immediately started killing the bar patrons in an attempt to kill the Lagoon crew. Thanks to Balalaika warning Dutch about the E.O. soldiers, the Lagoon crew were prepared and able to take cover, and Revy and Dutch managed to shoot several soldiers and push them back, successfully fleeing the bar but having to temporarily leave Roanapur.[2]
After the chaos, the Captain exited the bar and one of his men, Storm, informed him that of their own troops, 16 were dead and 8 were wounded, telling the Captain that they underestimated the enemy as mere thugs. In response, the Captain sadistically stated that they finally had an enemy worth fighting instead of non-combatants in Liberia. When Balalaika directed Dutch to go to Palawan Island to deliver the disk, Kageyama utilized Extra Order's services once more to chase the Lagoon Company, even paying for the E.O. helicopter's missiles. At night, the Captain and his mate Mayer entered the helicopter in a carrier ship and flew off to track down the Lagoon crew.[1] In the daytime, the E.O. helicopter found them and instead of immediately killing them, the Captain toyed with the Lagoon crew since he wanted to prolong the battle. In minutes, Dutch's PT boat got trapped in a channel near Palawan Island. Excited to see the pirates' next move, the Captain decided to wait them out, and in the meantime Rock formulated a plan to play chicken with the Captain using a sunken ship in the channel as a ramp.
Soon, the PT boat sped to the channel's mouth toward the sunken ship. In response, the Captain accepted their game of chicken and fired two missiles, which Rock diverted away from the boat using a flare gun. As the two sides closed in to each other, the Captain ordered Mayer to destroy the boat with a single shot after they passed the ramp. To the Captain's misfortune, Dutch fired a torpedo when his boat flew off the ramp, and the torpedo successfully barged through the helicopter's windshield, directly hitting the Captain in the face and destroying the helicopter in a huge explosion.[3]
