Template:Character Cannon is the proprietor of the Bomb Shop on Windfall Island in The Wind Waker.

If Link visits Cannon's shop early in the game, he acts rude and disrespectful towards the young hero, claiming to be the last maker of bombs in the world and refusing to sell them to those he disapproves of.[1][2] As a result, he sells his products at ludicrous prices, with the lowest being 10,000 Rupees for 10 bombs.

Later on, during their quest to obtain Nayru's Pearl, Tetra's pirates pay a visit to Cannon, tying him up and gagging him in order to steal his bombs, which they plan to use to break into Jabun's cave. However, Link manages to sneak onto their ship and take the bombs for himself with Niko's help. After being robbed by the pirates, Cannon goes back to running his shop, whilst adopting a kinder and more generous personality as well as more affordable prices on his merchandise.[3]

Trivia

  • Bomb-Master Cannon bears a resemblance, at least in terms of hairstyle, to Barnes, the bombseller from Twilight Princess.
  • Chudley's attitude change from Twilight Princess is similar to that of Bomb-Master Cannon's: they're both rude and snooty when they charge high prices for their items, but become nice and friendly once they reduce their prices.
  • Despite claiming to be the only person left in the bomb industry, Beedle's Shop Ship carries bombs later in the game. However, this is only because the Pirates sold Beedle some of the bombs they had stolen.
