- Inga Zarashi (因果晒し （いんがざらし）, Bleaching Karma): After transforming to his gigantic, muscular size, Urouge punches his target multiple times with immense force. This was first seen used against a Pacifista. This is called Karmic Punishment in the Viz Manga and Karma Exposure in the FUNimation subs.
- Urouge Vs. Killer , interrupted by X. Drake
- Urouge, X. Drake, Basil Hawkins and Scratchmen Apoo vs. Kizaru and a Pacifista
- Urouge's crew, Fallen Monk Pirates, is the first pirate crew who came from an unnamed Sky Island to be introduced in the series and to be included as one of the top rookies.
- Urouge's name comes from the real life 16th century Turkish pirate, Oruc, one of the Barbarossa brothers.
- Urouge has the lowest bounty of the Supernovas. However, his number of "108" is seen as a mystical number in Eastern religion (similar to Zoro's 108 Pound Cannon attack), in particular the Japanese Buddhist belief that all men must resist 108 temptations before achieving Nirvana.
- In the 4th Japanese Fan Poll, Urouge is ranked as the 24th most popular character in One Piece.

Appearance
A huge pirate, Urouge is abundant in both height and width. He also dresses in similar robes to the Enforcers underneath the khaki robes he wears (which is also worn by the rest of his crew), which includes the white full-bodied garment with severed sleeves, that exposes tattoos patterned like flames on both biceps. Like Basil Hawkins, Urouge also wears black gloves and also possesses a rather large red bead necklace. As for his facial features, Urouge's face somewhat resembles a smiling totem mask as he's always seen grinning, even when he is unhappy, however as of Chapter 594 he is not seen grinning for the first time. Apart from his smile, he also has what appears to be a stitched-up scar vertically descending over, and falling short just above his left eye; and on his chin he has a prominent and very dark (jet-black, in fact) scruffy beard, that extends upwards to the sides of his jaw and then converges with his equally-dark side-burns. As for his hairstyle, he seems to sport the short and clean-cut sort generally sported by monks. He also wears a pair of earrings.Relationships

Urouge also has an ability that increases the proportions of his body to a gargantuan size. This ability also appears to increase his muscle mass, to the point where he was able to exceed Kuma's body size. Whether this ability comes from a Devil's Fruit or not is unknown.
Attacks
History
Sabaody Archipelago Arc
 |
| Urouge "terrified" after reading the news about the execution of Fire Fist Ace. |
Urouge was next seen being told by his crew that a World Noble was coming their way. Though he refers to the nobles as "nasty little things," he consents along with the other pirates and civilians to lower themselves to their knees to avoid any trouble. He has shown respect for Zoro for standing up and almost trying to kill a tenryuubito, while he himself preferred to "sit it off". He also pondered the strength of the Straw Hat Captain, to have such an incredible person as Zoro with such a high bounty serve under him.
When reading of Ace's planned execution, he did not lose his eternal smile, however, he seemed disturbed.
When the news of Luffy attacking a Tenryuubito spread out, he called the Straw Hats "troublesome," but seemed impressed by their actions.
Later, he was seen fighting one of the Pacifistas and, after getting beaten up, he asked if he could be allowed to pass by Marine HQ peacefully. However, he was then knocked over to where Basil Hawkins and Kizaru were fighting and, after X. Drake joined the fight, he began his counter-attack and invoked some sort of "doping" technique that exponentially enlarges his size, roughly matching Kuma's.
He manages to attack it successfully and throw it into a building, he is however wounded by a beam from its hand. Later, when he watches Drake fight him, he is careless and doesn't notice Kizaru standing behind him. Kizaru then proceeds to kick him through several buildings at once.
After Kizaru's additional defeat of Hawkins, Apoo and Drake, he is seen bloodied, lying on the ground.
Marineford Arc
He was seen watching Ace's execution televised at Sabaody, meaning that he managed to escape capture by the Marines.Post-War Arc
 |
| Urouge at the New World. |
During the aftermath, he is seen again commenting about Blackbeard.
After the war at Marineford, he and his crew go to the New World. They follow their Log Pose to an island that is emitting lightning from it and shooting it into the sky. Urouge said that it was the next island on their route, but there was no way to dock there. A small boat approached his boat, and an old man appeared and offered the Fallen Monk Pirates some umbrellas.
