Zero

Zero (ゼロ) was the leader of Six Arms, Eight Fingers' security department. He was killed by Sebas.

Appearance
Zero was a giant, bald man with half of his face and body covered with tattoos of various beasts. There is a panther on his legs, a falcon on his back, a rhino on his arms, a buffalo on his chest, and a lion on his head. Everything about him is large. The outlines of his muscular figure can be seen through his clothes. The cold glint in his eyes belongs to that of a seasoned warrior.

Personality
Zero was a strategic thinker who's always composed, examining any situation calmly. Given his experience, he was observant enough to recognize that the hole made by Sebas on the iron door of the brothel was made by a fist, not a magical item.

Zero was very arrogant and confident in his strength and skills to the point of stating that he is the strongest in the Kingdom and will make Gazef and Brain kneel before him someday.

Background
At some point in the past, Zero met Davernoch and recruited him into joining Six Arms of Eight Fingers. In return for joining the criminal organization and to use his magical powers under his direction, he helps fulfill the undead's request. This was by having Zero introduced the undead to someone who was willing to teach it magic, and paid it appropriately.

The Men in the Kingdom Arc
and The Men in the Kingdom II Arc Zero, along with the executives of Eight Fingers, meet in an undisclosed location to discuss various issues affecting the organization. Zero offers to assist Hilma with his resources but was turned down. However, one of the executives, Cocco Doll, requested for his security services in order to reinforce his hold over his declining slave trade division.

After learning that the brothel had been seized and that Succulent and Cocco Doll were captured by the authorities, he orders Six Arms to bail Succulent out, as well as gather information on those who were responsible for the attack on the organization and punish them in return.

When Sebas Tian is told to come to a warehouse alone due to Tuare's kidnapping, four of the Six Arms were there waiting for him. They engaged Sebas in combat but failed to even scratch him, resulting in them all being finished off effortlessly by Sebas. The other two members were waiting elsewhere and encounter Brain Unglaus, Climb, and Lockmeier. Succulent had disguised himself as Tuare in an attempt to get them to lower their guard down but fails and is next defeated by Climb and Lockmeier. Zero and Brain engage in a fierce battle but are interrupted by Sebas. Not believing that Sebas could kill four of the Six Arms by himself, Zero puts his duel with Brain on hold and attacks Sebas with his strongest attack. It, however, does nothing to the butler and Zero dies from a powerful heel dropkick.

Mass for the Dead Arc
After Eight Fingers collapse, Zero found himself without a job and switched his talents as a worker. At a bar he was approached by his old colleague Hilma who invited him to work at E-Rantel her using her new position at the Pharmacist's Guild. Zero not wanting to be indebt to her refused and continued resume his criminal ways. Uninterested in starting his new career as just a worker, Zero intended to build a new organization with his comrades in Six Arms. In public he acted as an outstanding worker to build trust but behind the scenes he worked to build a new syndicate with him acting as the head. His nascent criminal empire started slow but was gaining momentum however he and his comrades lost and their noble backers as the Kingdom was cracking down on all illegal activities as part of their concessions to the new Tripartite Alliance. Though this set Six Arms back, it opened a new opportunity to head to E-Rantel as it was becoming the new center of the world. It was there Zero intended to make a comeback and prove to the world he was the strongest in the three nations. Later in order to destabilize the Tripartite Alliance, Zero made a deal with Zurrernorn to complete their Death Spiral ritual. The criminal kept his comrades in Six Arms out of the loop of the plan but they followed his direction and worked with him to guard the site of the ritual thinking it was just a normal job. He was the only member to escape when Blue Roses and their allies attacked.

Blue Roses was assigned to capture the fugitive, But later he was found to be at a venue of the summit of the Tripartite Alliance having accepted an offer from Emperor Jircniv Rune Farlord El Nix to join the Baharuth Empire and hence giving Zero immunity for his crimes. As part of a demonstration the participated in a mock battle against Gazef Stronoff and Soi. He was defeated by Gazef in the battle. Due to him gaining amnesty for himself and by extension his comrades, the surviving members of Six Arms were freed. They acted as a unit to train and lead a group of workers to fight against a horde of Chaos Beasts that were heading towards E-Rantel. Zero was ordered by the emperor to lead the monsters into the Quarry where the imperial knights would box the Chaos Beasts and eliminate them. Zero followed his orders to the letter but when the reinforcements came he expected them to join in the fray. They did not and Zero suspected something was off. He then called his comrades to get off the quarry floor. That action saved their lives as the quarry floor was broken apart by a mechanism activated by the knights, causing the workers and Chaos Beasts to fall into the Melting Pot. The trap dissolved everyone that fell into the pit killing them. Zero friends who survived the trap watched in horror at the lengths of which the Bloody Emperor would use to achieve victory. On the contrary Zero praised the action as the best method worthy of a leader.

Quotes

 * (To Hilma): "Why not hire me? Do you think the mooks on your payroll can protect anything?"
 * (To Cocco Doll): "Gotten ourselves into big trouble, haven't we? Have no fear. My strongest subordinates will protect your assets."
 * (To Six Arms): "This is too big to be a mere joke. I need to apologize to Cocco Doll. I lent him Succulent of Six Arms, but to think this place was taken down so easily, and on the day I sent him over...What a joke."
 * (To Edström): "There's no need to go to such lengths. Even a man like him has his uses. I'll just ask the Count to release him...that'll cost a pretty penny, though. Go make a list of what the Count likes."
 * (To Davernoch): "Don't be foolish. If we obtain it, the other divisions will be even more suspicious of us. People are already suspecting that we were behind all of this. If we find the guest list somewhere, give it to Cocco Doll several days later and apologize. Besides, the list ought to be in an unbreakable code, so you won't be able to use it anyway."
 * (To Six Arms about Sebas Tian): "First, we pay the bail on Succulent and the others who were arrested and gather information. Once that is done arrange for people who know how to torture. We will show the invader hell. He will greatly regret his foolishness!"
 * (To Climb about Renner): "...Indeed, kid. You're that whore's slave, aren't you? Hmph! To think there'd be ants crawling in here. Just leave a bit of bait out and you're everywhere. It pisses me off."
 * (To Brain Unglaus): "Hahaha! Your desires do run deep. You're talking money before begging me for your life. You can't take it with you, you know."
 * (To Brain): "You've got a mouth on you, Unglaus. A lot of people talk better than they fight; are you one of them? Or did you get cocky because you beat Succulent? Then here's a sincere apology for making you so full of yourself despite only beating the weakest member of Six Arms."
 * (To Brain about Climb and Renner): "Unglaus, I will make you the foundation of my reputation as the strongest warrior. I'll use your tombstone to show everyone the fate of anyone stupid enough to challenge Six Arms! As for the whore's slave, I'll pretty his head up and mail it back to her."
 * (To Brain): "I will punch straight through you from the front. I'll shatter that move you're so proud of and attain victory. First I'll defeat Brain Unglaus, and then someday I will have Gazef Stronoff kneel at my feet. That way, I'll be the strongest man in the Kingdom."
 * (To Sebas Tian): "...Nonsense, utter nonsense, enough of your bullshit. They might not be a match for me, but they're still warriors whom I gifted with the title of Six Arms. How could you have made it here unscathed?!"
 * (To Sebas): "It, it can't be! How do you expect me to believe that!?!"
 * (To Brain): "...Brain Unglaus. I'll fight you later. I'm going to show this man the power of Six Arms!"
 * (To Brain and then Sebas): "Bullshit!...Old man! You'll pay with your life for that nonsense you spouted!"
 * (Zero's last words to Sebas): "Wh-What are you....?"
