- been fighting the Roger pirates alongside Garp since the era of Rocks, most likely the marine rival to Gaban or Rayleigh.
- actually showed up at God Valley unlike Sengoku and Tsuru who are Garp's supposed contemporaries
- aged better than even Shakky, he's estimated to be in his 60s in the modern day yet looks the same as he did 38 years ago. If no Imu-granted immortality then he just has crazy good genetics
- could've held the title of world's strongest swordsman before Mihawk, he's at the very least the Marine's strongest swordsman
- responsible for training the future of the marine, Koby, who is now a world renowned hero
I'm fully expecting Oda to give the deep dive on Bogard's character in a future chapter just like how he's doing with Scopper Gaban. This man is a lurking legend waiting to be uncovered for the final war.
