I'm sorry, but I honestly HATE the marines. Thank you for your time.
Mod
Yeah, but I hate the guys who killed Ace.
Mod
Yeah, it would be better if the Ice-Guy was the Fleet Admiral. I like him.
Mod
Well, if you watch the movie, Film Z, you could get a little bit of what he's been doing.
Mod
I watch movies at random 'cause I can't find all of them.

The Marines are the World Government's military sea force, tasked with law enforcement, international security and military operations when needed.
They are present in all the seas around the world, as evidenced by their branch offices. The focus of the plurality of their assets is on the far more dangerous Grand Line, as their main headquarters, Marineford, is located there.
In the aftermath of the Battle of Marineford, the headquarters has since been relocated to the New World.
~ DUTY ~
The duty of the Marines is to maintain a law and order throughout the world and impose the will and might of the World Government. They are therefore considered the key strategic development force in the World Government and are expected to obey its orders at will. Sometimes these orders are questionable, however they are expected to carry them out regardless of opinion. Amongst their duties is awarding bounty hunters the bounties on the heads of a criminal. They tolerate bounty hunters as a method of making their job easier but are known to go out bounty hunting themselves. Apprehended criminals who are brought in alive are handed over to be made an example of, the Marines are left to ensuring the exportation of these criminals to prison and/or to their execution.
