[anchor=commodore]COMMODORE
while the many of the responsibilities pertaining to a commodore are not much different from that of the captain, they are seen as having much more experience and capabilities. at the same time, their words and validation holds more ground within the marines. this is where marines show if they have what it takes to become that of an admiral class. commodores may command two ships if the situation requires it.

standing as one of the strongest marines out there, vice admirals are feared due to their strength. wielding proficiency in one haki and one rokushiki, they are rounded fighters that can adapt to any situation. like before, they are also required to wear formal suit and marine coat on base. vice admirals can be seen with a fleet of five ships under their command.

[anchor=admiral]ADMIRAL
the shoguns of the modern day. admirals are special due to that there are only three positions available at all times. they are both respected and feared throughout the world as their name alone can send relief or panic into the hearts of men. they are the greatest military powers that are allowed to use buster call at any given time.
