I was watching One Piece when I remembered that there was a guy Sanji saved
back in the Baratie arc. Then I looked up his name, and it was Gin.

I remember that when Krieg launched the poison attack, Gin gave his mask to
Luffy, essentially sacrificing himself in the process.

They said he took a lethal amount of poison, yet we don't know if he died
after the events. We only know that he and his crew (including Pandaman)
sailed away on a ship that wasn't the ideal size, and Gin said to Luffy that
he's going to meet him again.

Did he die? I'm quite far in the story, and he hasn't returned thus far.
Challenging Luffy also wouldn't be a very sane idea if he knew he was going to
be dead in couple of hours, and there's virtually no chance they meet again in
that time.

Death of a character in the Baratie arc


Gin hasn't been mentioned or referenced in the story since he left, so his
fate his unknown at the moment, and only speculation can be used.

On the one hand, he did breathe in a supposedly lethal amount of poisonous
gases, and may not have much longer left to live, as he noted himself. But on
the other hand, several characters in the series have been shown to survive
supposedly lethal injuries, albeit sometimes thanks to outside help. Pell
survived the explosion from Crocodile's bomb in the Alabasta arc, and Luffy
survived Magellan's poisons thanks to Ivankov's treatments and his own
willpower.

Until Gin reappears in person, is mentioned by another character, or Oda
clarifies the situation in an SBS, Gin's fate will remain ambiguous.
