!!"The Persian"
A retired hitman who became a gun salesman after losing his arm. He decides to sabotage one of Golgo's jobs. It doesn't go well for him.
----

* AnArmAndALeg: He lost his arm and then gave up being a hitman.
* DeathSeeker: After Golgo shoots him, he expresses relief that Golgo didn't listen to his pleas to spare his life.
* EvilIsPetty: It's implied that the main reason he botched Golgo's job was due to a combination of envy and resentment at the younger man successfully maintaining his status and reputation as a professional assassin while the Persian was forced to quit the game after the loss of his arm.
* GameBreakingInjury: It's heavily implied that he had to retire after his risky and reckless lifestyle finally caught up with him.
-->'''The Persian:''' Yes! ''Yes!'' I was once like you! Once '''much''' like you Mr. Togo! I shot the British for the Germans, and the Germans for the British! I worked for the Arabs, and I worked for the Jews! Until one day chance caught up with ''me'', and I lost my arm!
* {{Gonk}}: He's drawn in a disgusting manner, especially his teeth, which are crooked, jagged, and drawn much larger than those of other characters.
* NoNameGiven: He's only identified as 'the Persian.'
* RetiredMonster: He's definately got a pretty high bodycount if his claims about his past are true.

!!Kirk Rolland, [=AKA=] The Colonel
A rich and repugnant man who has the entire town of Florewood, Mississippi under his control. After a local Vietnam veteran named Abel Barnett returns home from the war, Rolland (who goes by "the Colonel" even though he never served in the military) harasses the boy to the point of suicide for petty and cruel reasons. Unfortunately for Rolland, Barnett had a friend named Sammy Brown who had served in the military with him, spent five years in the same Viet Cong [=POW=] camp as him, and was willing to hire Golgo 13 to avenge him.
----
* ChurchgoingVillain: In this case it's used to highlight the Colonel's complete and utter hypocrisy. One minute he's complaining about the police chief calling him in to the station "on the Lord's day," and the next he's paying off a dirty cop to murder the man who warned him about Golgo 13 coming to assassinate him.
* DirtyCoward: The man insults and bullies a Vietnam veteran and goes out of his way to be a racist jerk, but when he finds out a professional assassin is coming after him, he pulls out all the stops to protect himself.
* EvilIsPetty: The reason he bullied and tormented Abel to the point of suicide? The poor boy dared to mention the name of his hometown in a 'Peace Petition' he signed after having been captured by the Viet Cong, which the Colonel felt was an embarrassment to the town and therefore him.
* IOwnThisTown: He has the entire town of Florewood in his back pocket. He even has the entire police force on his payroll and is able to order them to set up search parties and blockades all just to protect himself.
* KarmicDeath: After driving Barnett to suicide and having multiple people murdered for no other reason than his own racism, Rolland is finally gunned down by Golgo 13.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: '''Good lord.''' The man and his cronies drop racial slurs and insults like other people might use ''punctuation''.
* UngratefulBastard: When Zachary Poole, the black stool pigeon who warns him about Golgo asks for a reward he takes out a few bills, puts them on the table and then...
-->'''Poole:''' Three... three hundred? Well, thank you!
-->'''Rolland:''' It's not for you. [[MakeItLookLikeAnAccident One is for the officer who will throw you down the stairs...]] [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness the other two are for your burial detail.]]
-->'''Chief Sturgis:''' ...yes sir.
* WouldHitAGirl: When he finds out that the woman Sturgis brought in knows where Golgo is he doesn't hesitate to order him to use violence to get her to reveal his location, making it perfectly clear that he'll do the job himself if need be.
-->'''Rolland:'''Well, then you go and get it out of her '''now''', then! Or if you ''don't'' want you job, shall '''I''' do it? By god, you better not be too lazy [[PoliceBrutality to swing a club into a stomach!]]

!!Chief Lester Sturgis
The chief of police in Florewood, Mississippi. He is just as racist as Kirk Rolland, and when he hears about Golgo 13's plans, he immediately orders his police force to do everything in their power to gun Golgo down.
----
* DirtyCop: He functions more as Rolland's personal enforcer than as a lawman, and when his police officers kill a random Japanese guy they thought was Golgo, Sturgis helps to cover it up by planting a gun on the man's body.
* TheDragon: He's Colonel Rolland's right hand man and main enforcer.
* KarmicDeath: Even though Golgo wasn't paid to kill him and he wasn't a threat to Golgo by the end of the story, Golgo still shoots him. Given Sturgis's constant racism and his willingness to kill completely innocent people, though, few would shed any tears at his death.
* WouldHitAGirl: He immediately agrees to Rolland's suggestion of using force to get a black woman he recently arrested to reveal Golgo's location. Luckily, Golgo was a lot closer than he ever anticipated and stops him before he can get the chance.

!!Sandrine Salvi
A member of the Union Corse, which is a Corsican gang. Salvi claims to be the only one who knows the real identify of the mysterious "Dr. Z," a figure who creates new types of drugs which the gang sells. When Golgo is hired to kill Dr. Z, he gets himself picked to be her bodyguard and seduces her before discovering that she herself is Dr. Z... and also that she's completely deranged.
----
* DwindlingParty: Is the last of the hijackers Golgo kills.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He certainly has a fair amount of affection for his girlfriend, who sadly gets thrown overboard before the hijacking.
* HairTriggerTemper: Ironically, in a series where ColdSniper types like Golgo frequently run around and find success, he's got a short fuse and still manages to have the ice-cold nerves necessary for a sniper to succeed.
* TheHeavy: As the hijacking gang's point man, it's up t him to snipe anyone who tries to gets into spitting distance of the ship.
* RunForTheBorder: The gang plans to get into international waters long before the US Coast Guard can get onboard and defuse the crisis.
* SayMyName: Just before he dies, he asks Golgo who the hell he is. Surprisingly, Duke answers him just as he slumps dead.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: Golgo tests his shooting skills by taking his boat into firing range in the middle of a hurricane. Had Golgo not installed bulletproof glass on the boat, he might very well have ended up with a bullet in the head, because the shot was dead-on.

A lesbian assassin hired by the mafia to kill Golgo. She couldn't have chosen a better (or in Golgo's case, worse) time to go up against him because Golgo's down from a case of [[https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/guillain-barre-syndrome/symptoms-causes/syc-20362793 Guillian-Barre syndrome]], and as such, is unable to use a gun or any weapon to defend himself with.
