List of One Piece characters

The One Piece manga and anime series features an extensive cast of characters created by Eiichiro Oda. The series takes place in a fictional universe where vast numbers of pirates, soldiers, revolutionaries, and other adventurers fight each other, using various superhuman and supernatural abilities. The series' storyline follows the adventures of a group of pirates as they search for the series titular treasure.

The main character of the series is Monkey D. Luffy, a young pirate who wishes to succeed Gol D. Roger, the deceased King of the Pirates, by finding his treasure, the "One Piece". During the course of series, Luffy gathers himself a crew of misfits, named the Straw Hat Pirates, so far including the three swords wielding Roronoa Zoro, the master thief and expert navigator Nami, the cowardly marksman and inventor Usopp, the gourmet cook and martial-artist Sanji, the anthropomorphic reindeer and doctor Tony Tony Chopper, the archaeologist Nico Robin, the cyborg shipwright Franky, and the living skeleton musician Brook. Together they sail the seas in pursuit of their dreams, encountering other pirates, bounty hunters, criminal organizations, revolutionaries, secret agents and soldiers of the World Government, and various other friends and foes.

Creation and conception
When drawing One Piece, Eiichiro Oda was heavily influenced by the manga Dragon Ball and had the series in mind when designing his characters. Several characters have been stated to be based on actual people, such as Blackbeard (Marshall D. Teach) and Whitebeard (Edward Newgate) being based on the actual pirate Blackbeard (Edward Teach). Some other notable examples includes Roronoa Zoro (François l'Olonnais), Sanji & Zeff (Red Legs Greaves), Jewelry Bonney (Anne Bonny), Scratchmen Apoo (Chui Apoo), Eustass Kidd (William Kidd and Eustace the Monk), X. Drake (Sir Francis Drake), Lafitte (Jean Lafitte), Bartholomew Kuma (Bartholomew Roberts), Captain Morgan (Henry Morgan), Alvida (Awilda), Basil Hawkins (Basil Ringrose and John Hawkins) and Bellamy (Samuel Bellamy).

The Straw Hat Pirates
The protagonists of the One Piece series are part of the Straw Hat Pirates, a crew of pirates founded and captained by Monkey D. Luffy. Starting out with Luffy alone the crew's number grows throughout the series as Luffy keeps recruiting new members. The name of their first ship is "Going Merry" (ゴーイング・メリー号), however due to severe damage, the Straw Hat Pirates got a new ship called "Thousand Sunny" (サウザンドサニー号).

Monkey D. Luffy
Monkey D. Luffy (モンキー・D・ルフィ), nicknamed "Straw Hat" Luffy (麦わらのルフィ), is the 17 year-old captain of The Straw Hat Pirates and the main protagonist of the One Piece series. At first, Luffy does not appear to be very intelligent; his apparent lack of intelligence is the source of his brave attitude towards life. Luffy can easily be amazed by the simplest things.If Luffy finds something he doesn't understand, even if someone explained in detail, he calls it a "mystery thing". He is, however, a genius when it comes to fighting. When Luffy's friends' lives are threatened, Luffy goes into an unimaginably, dangerous rage. At the beginning of the series, he accidentally eats a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Gum-Gum Fruit (ゴムゴムの実), causing his body to gain the properties of highly stretchable rubber. These properties are a result of Oda's desire for the fighting style to be silly, so that no matter how tense a situation gets, the reader can relax without becoming stressed out.

Luffy later learns "Gear Second" (ギア2 (セカンド)), a technique which increases his blood flow and speed instantly to attack. However, "Gear Second" hacks away Luffy's life force dramatically, increasing a chance of having a much shorter life because he is starving his body, though Luffy rebutles, saying that it doesn't matter as long he saves his friends. After Gear Second wears off, Luffy can recover quickly through replenishing of his nutrient storage.

Later on, Luffy learns how to go beyond "Gear Second" and into "Gear Third" (ギア3 (サード)). Luffy increases the size of his limbs by biting into his thumb and inflating it hard, transfer the air through his entire body, requiring the torso to act as an interface for his various limbs. Used with his already-strong physiology, this apparently gives his arm more mass and a larger area to attack with far greater strength, but he sacrifices mobility for this strength, as his limbs are now so large that Luffy has extreme trouble moving. To deactivate "Gear Third", Luffy leaves the form by exhaling heavily, which can cause him to be propelled backwards. The deactivation of "Gear Third" brings about shrinking, which is a negative side-effect due to the massive expansion undergone prior to release. The amount of time Luffy spends in his shrunken form is roughly equivalent to the amount of time spent in "Gear Third" mode.

After his life is saved by Shanks when he is seven years old, Luffy decides to achieve the tantamount goals of finding the series' titular treasure and succeeding Gol D. Roger as King of the Pirates. Ten years later, wearing Shanks' straw hat, he sets out to sea to gather a crew and sail the Grand Line, where the One Piece is supposedly hidden. It also seems that Luffy is capable using King Ambition (覇王色の覇気), although he is unaware of this ability. Portgas D. Ace is Luffy's older brother through adoption. Luffy ranked first in all three Shōnen Jump character popularity polls. Luffy's current bounty is 300,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Mayumi Tanaka in the Japanese version of the anime.. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Bella Hudson for 4Kids, and by Colleen Clinkenbeard for Funimation.

Roronoa Zoro
Roronoa Zoro (ロロノア・ゾロ), named after François l'Olonnais, nicknamed "Pirate Hunter" Zoro (海賊狩りのゾロ), is a 19 year old, skilled swordsman who uses up to three swords at once, clutching the third in his mouth. To fulfill a promise he made to childhood friend and rival, "Kuina", he wants to become the world's greatest swordsman by defeating Dracule Mihawk. Before joining Luffy, he made a living by bounty hunting. He joins Luffy's crew in exchange for his aid in escaping execution. He makes it clear that he would turn on his captain if he ever stepped between him and his dream, although during the "Thriller Bark arc" he says that he can't fulfill his dream if he did not help his captain fulfill his. His enormous physical strength is enough to lift a building, as well as inhumanly heavy weights on a regular basis. During a fight with Baroque Works Officer Agent Mr. 1 (Daz Bonez), he learns how to cut through solid steel. He can employ an "Asura" technique which gives him three faces and six arms, thus totaling nine swords. In addition, Zoro can expand the muscle mass of his arms, as well as emulate some of his sword attacks using his bare hands. He is extremely poor at understanding geographical directions and gets lost very easily. He also sleeps a great deal and loves to drink. Zoro's current bounty is 120,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Kazuya Nakai (as an adult) and Megumi Urawa (as a child) in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Marc Diraison (as an adult) and Andrew Rannells (as a child) for 4Kids, and by Christopher R. Sabat (as an adult) and Brina Palencia (as a child) for Funimation.

Zoro ranked second in all three Shōnen Jump character popularity polls. Furthermore, in a 2007 poll by Oricon, Zoro was voted as the 4th most desired character to receive a spinoff. DVD Talk praises Zoro's "hilarious" three-sword fighting style as a great example of the show's sense of humor. Holly Ellingwood from Activeanime praised Zoro's fight against Luffy as one of the best moments from the 10th DVD from the series released by Viz Media, praising the action scenes. Sabat's work with Zoro has resulted in him being a nominated of the category "Best Voice Actor (English)" in the Society for the Promotion of Japanese Animation (SPJA) Awards from 2008. Carl Kimlinger from Anime News Network commented on Sabat's work with Zoro as a "standout", noting that Zoro and Sabat are "well-matched. Kimlinger also found that his along with Sanji's flashbacks from the anime "really do jerk tears, even if they are less than gracefully executed".

Nami
Nami (ナミ), nicknamed "Cat Burglar" Nami (泥棒猫のナミ), is the crew's 18-year-old navigator and thief. She has the ability to recognize and analyze even the slightest changes in the weather up to the point of sheer intuition. She is also an excellent pickpocket. Her dream is to draw a complete map of the world. Throughout the series, Nami fights using a three-sectioned bo staff. Usopp later provides her with a version of this weapon capable of controlling weather, called the Clima-Takt (天候棒). Even later, Usopp augments the Clima-Takt with dials, making it more powerful. Nami's current bounty is 16,000,000 Berries. She is voiced by Akemi Okamura in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, she is voiced by Kerry Williams for 4Kids,, and by Luci Christian for Funimation.

Nami ranked in the Top 10 of all three Shōnen Jump character popularity polls. Her backstory has been found to be a "touching story" as it "unfolds with a lot of emotion" by Mania Entertainment writer, Jarred Pine. Pine also mentioned Nami was his favorite character from the series, and satisfied with how the manga showed her past. While reviewing the 8th DVD from Viz Media, Activeanime mentioned Nami is one of the best characters from the series as "She’s got guts, smarts, and can heft a mean punch when needed". Like Pined, Activeanime liked Nami's background and added that his "itty bitty heart went out to her". In the SPJA 2008, Nami was nominated in the category "Best Female Character".

When a reader asked Oda who Nami is in love with, Oda answered that there will not likely be any romance among the Straw Hat Pirates. Oda explained that he does not portray romance in One Piece as the series is a shōnen comic, and the young boys who read the comic are not interested in romance.

Usopp
Usopp (ウソップ), nicknamed "Sogeking" (狙撃の王様), is the crew's 17-year old marksman. His name comes from Uso, which means liar in Japanese, and Aesop, the author of The Boy Who Cried Wolf. He is a liar, talented inventor, as well as a skilled painter and sculptor. His primary weapon is a slingshot, which he uses to fire various kinds of ammunition, ranging from rotten eggs and shuriken to hot sauce, and both flaming and exploding projectiles. Later, he creates himself a large, dial-powered slingshot he calls Kabuto (カブト), with which he is able to outrange even guns. Usopp's father, Yasopp, left his family to become a pirate when Usopp was still very young. Some time after this, Usopp's mother, Banchina (バンキーナ), fell ill. Usopp started telling lies, stating that his father had returned and would be taking them with him. His mother eventually died, but Usopp, in his sadness, continued to lie. Despite all this, he does not blame his father for leaving him, but takes pride in his heritage. He is inspired by Luffy, Zoro and Nami and decides to go out to sea, following his dream of becoming a "brave warrior of the sea". His weakness as a fighter weighs heavily upon him and when after the crew is defeated and almost destroyed by Admiral Aokiji of the Marines, Luffy decides to replace the badly damaged Going Merry, the Straw Hats' first ship, which is given to them by Usopp's friend "Kaya", a girl from his village that he used to cheer up with his lies, Usopp goes so far as to temporarily leave the crew. Usopp's current bounty is 30,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Kappei Yamaguchi in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Jason Anthony Griffith for 4Kids, and by Sonny Strait for Funimation.

Usopp ranked in the Top 10 of all three Shōnen Jump character popularity polls. In a 2007 Oricon poll, Usopp was voted the 10th most wanted character to receive a spin off amongst all respondents, and the 5th most popular amongst males. In a review of Funimation Entertainment's second DVD release for Mania Entertainment, Bryce Coulter notes that Usopp "brings lots of comic relief to the series", but also comments that he "can be down right annoying at times."

Sanji
Sanji (サンジ), nicknamed "Black Leg" Sanji (黒脚のサンジ), is the crew's 19-year-old chef. He knows how it feels to starve from first hand experience, so he will never refuse someone a meal. He has a strong sense of chivalry, because of which, he will never harm a woman, even if he dies. Sanji also seems to keep this code regardless of a woman's appearance. His dream is to find the "All Blue" (オールブルー), a legendary sea, containing every kind of fish in the world. Sanji is also a very skilled fighter who uses only kicks. He said that this is because a chef's hands are his most prized possessions and should not be risked in battle.His fighting style resembles the capoeira. Sanji also has the ability to employ a fire based kick, called "Diable Jamble" (ディアブルジャンブ) in which he sets his leg on fire by spinning around rapidly, this causes his attacks to be much more powerful, Sanji first used this technique at Enies Lobby. Sanji's current bounty is 77,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Hiroaki Hirata (as an adult) and Ikue Otani (child) in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by David Moo (as an adult) and Veronica Taylor (as a child) for 4Kids, and by Eric Vale (as an adult) and Christine Auten (as a child) for Funimation.

Tony Tony Chopper
Tony Tony Chopper (トニートニー・チョッパー), nicknamed "Cotton Candy Lover" Chopper (わたあめ大好きのチョッパー), is the crew's 15-year-old doctor. He is a blue-nosed reindeer who gained human properties by eating the zoan Devil Fruit called the Human-Human Fruit (ヒトヒトの実). The fruit-granted ability allows him to change between three forms. His first and original form is that of a reindeer. In his second form, he has the proportions of a human child, while retaining his antlers, hooves, and fur. In his third form, he looks like a brawny man with fur. In addition to his normal transformations, Chopper developed a drug he calls Rumble Ball (ランブル・ボール), which allows him to assume four additional forms for the duration of three minutes. These forms focus on certain aspects of his body to improve his physical abilities. These are broken down into "points" in the original version (renamed "boost" in the English manga and the 4Kids dub) called: guard, horn, jumping, and arm point with the original three becoming walk, brain, and heavy point. If Chopper uses a second Rumble Ball within six hours, he cannot control his transformations. If he uses a third Rumble Ball within six hours of the first, he transforms into a monstrous version of himself and loses all self-control called "Monster Point". He also has the ability to understand other animals' speech, because he is an animal himself. What he is not capable of, however, is hiding his feelings. Chopper's current bounty is 50 Berries. He is voiced by Ikue Ōtani in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Lisa Ortiz for 4Kids, and by Brina Palencia for Funimation.

When creating Chopper, Oda stated that he wanted a mascot who is both cute and fearless. An IGN review of the manga praised Chopper's character as one of the best in the series and said that he was able to be both touching and funny. Chopper ranked in the Top 5 of both Shōnen Jump character popularity polls since the character's introduction. Oda said that the message he wanted to illustrate in regards to Chopper's family situation is that a person who is not blood-related to another person can still be considered as a member of one's family.

Nico Robin
Nico Robin (ニコ・ロビン), nicknamed "Devil Child" (悪魔の子) by the World Government is the crew's 28-year-old archaeologist. Growing up alone on the island Ohara (オハラ), home of the world's largest and oldest library, she became an archaeologist at the age of eight and learned how to decipher the writings on the ancient stones called Poneglyph (歴史の本文), which are scattered around the world. After the World Government destroyed Ohara for housing archaeologists along with her returning mother, Nico Olvia (ニコ･オルビア), researching these stones, Robin spent twenty years on the run, cooperating with various pirates and other outlaws and became a member of Baroque Works nicknamed as "Ms. All-Sunday" (ミス・オールサンデー) at the time, being briefly an antagonist to the Straw Hat Pirates before joining them. Like the scholars of Ohara before her, it is her dream to find and decipher the Rio Poneglyph (真の歴史の本文), which is said to tell the world's lost history. Her devotion to history and its preservation goes so far that she will even risk her life to protect ancient artifacts and buildings. She ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Flower-Flower Fruit (ハナハナの実), allowing her to create copies of any of her body parts on any surface that she can see. However, if her replicated parts are hurt, she feels the pain on her actual body. Robin's current bounty is 80,000,000 Berries. She is voiced by Yuriko Yamaguchi (as an adult) and Anzu Nagai (as a child) in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, she is voiced by Veronica Taylor for 4Kids and by Stephanie Young for Funimation.

Franky
Franky (フランキー), nicknamed "Cyborg" Franky (サイボーグ フランキー), is the crew's 34 year old shipwright. After his pirate parents abandoned him at age ten, he became an apprentice of the master shipwright "Tom" along with "Iceburg". When Tom was taken away as a criminal by the government for building Gol D. Roger's ship, the "Oro Jackson", Franky tried to stop them. In the attempt, he was severely injured and, in order to survive, had to exchange parts of his body with replacements made of scrap metal, turning himself into a cola-powered cyborg. Franky, thus, gained an artificial body which grants him super-human strength. Its front is heavily armored and insensitive to most attacks, while his back, where he could not reach, remains vulnerable. His body is equipped with a wide variety of weapons, including several guns and an extendable right arm. His stomach contains a refrigerator compartment that can hold up to three bottles of cola to fuel him and his attacks. His personality is also affected by the type of beverage that is stored in his refrigerator compartment. He can use up large amounts of cola in an instant to launch powerful bursts of air from his arms, one such move is called the Coup de Vent. After word of his death had spread, he cast off his original name, Cutty Flam (カティ・フラム), and became the underground boss Franky. His dream is to build a ship, to become its shipwright, and sail it to the end of the world. To that end, he builds the Straw Hats Pirates' second ship, the brigantine-rigged sloop-of-war Thousand Sunny, and joins the crew. Franky tends to act tough most of the time like saying his catch phrase "SUPER!!" However, Franky can get emotional very easy and start to cry, but then denies it. Franky's current bounty is 44,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Kazuki Yao (as an adult) and Junko Noda (as a child) in Japanese. In the English dub, he is voiced by Patrick Seitz (as an adult) and Greg Ayres (as a child) for Funimation.

Brook
Brook (ブルック), nicknamed "Dead Bones" Brook (デッドボーンズブルック) (formerly "Humming" Brook (鼻唄のブルック)), is the crew's 88-year old musician. He is a skeleton, resurrected by the Revive-Revive Fruit (ヨミヨミの実), a paramecia Devil Fruit, which grants its eater a second life. He is an excellent musician, who claims being able to play any instrument, and a skilled fencer, who uses a shikomizue, a Japanese cane sword, in battle. His lightweight skeleton body allows him to jump extraordinarily high and to run across water. His gentlemanly impression stands in stark contrast to his incredibly bad manners: He bluntly requests to see women's panties, helps himself to people's food, and belches out loud on the dinner table. When Brook's former crew, the "Rumbar Pirates", entered the Grand Line, they left their pet whale "Laboon" behind at Reverse Mountain, promising to return after sailing around the world. Fifty years later, Brook, being the only survivor, considers it his duty to fulfill his former crew's promise. Brook's current bounty is 33,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Chō in the Japanese version of the anime. He does not yet have an English voice, as the English dub has yet to reach that far into the series.

The idea of a skeleton musician was first conceived by Oda in the year 2000.

The World Nobles (世界貴族), also known as the Celestial Dragons (天竜人), are the descendants of the twenty kings who established what is now known as the World Government, and are able to buy people, including pirates, who have been captured and put into slavery and their actions are overlooked by the World Government.

Marine
The Marine is a military force under the command of the World Government. The uniforms of its soldiers, who are referred to as "marines" in adaptations using "Marine", as well as the Marine's ships and installations prominently display the word "Marine" in all-upper-case roman letters, often alongside a depiction of a sea gull.

Sengoku
Fleet Admiral Sengoku (センゴク), nicknamed Sengoku the "Buddha" (仏のセンゴク), Sengoku the "Strategist" (戦国ストラテジスト), and "Saint" (聖人), commands the Marine.

As the commanding officer of the entire Marine force, Sengoku has absolute power over every action the Marines do, including summoning a Buster Call. The only ones that are above him and command him are Kong, the Commander in Chief, and the Five Elder Stars. Sengoku apparently ate a paramecia Devil Fruit that allows him to turn into something similar to a gigantic Daibutsu, which is probably the reason for his nickname. The color of his body (and uniform) seems to change to a dark color, making him appear to be ominously shadowed at all times. In this form his body has different proportions, his torso and arms are much larger compared to the rest of his body. This ability gives him a massive power boost to his already impressive strength. Even without his Devil Fruit powers, it is implied that Sengoku also has superhuman strength. He is voiced by Takkou Ishimori. In the English dub, he is voiced by Ed Blaylock for Funimation.

Akainu practices Absolute Justice, an extremely ruthless interpretation of the greater good, such as destroying an entire ship full of escaping civilians in the off chance that one criminal might be hiding amongst them.) He is also notable for wearing a cap low over his eyes, obscuring his facial features for all of his early appearances. Akainu was the one responsible for Ace's death. He is voiced by Fumihiko Tachiki in the Japanese version of the anime. In the flashback from 20 years before the current story, he was voiced by Michio Nakao.

Vice Admiral Onigumo (オニグモ) is one of the five Vice Admirals who lead the Buster Call on Enies Lobby.

In the English dubs, she is voiced by Priscilla Everett for 4Kids and by Monica Rial for Funimation.

When a reader asked Oda why Tashigi looked similar to Kuina, Oda answered that the similarity is "just a coincidence" and that there is no relation and backstory between the characters.

Coby
Master Chief Petty Officer Coby (コビー) works together with Helmeppo under Vice Admiral Garp. He was also a former chore boy of Alvida's old crew. When he first appeared, Coby was a small, timid, coward. However, thanks to Luffy, he had the courage to leave the crew and fulfill his dream of joining the Marines. Since joining the Marines, he befriends Helmeppo and goes under the tutelage of Garp. Because of training, Coby has learned Rokushiki and can use "Soru". Recently, he has awakened the power of Haki. He is voiced by Mika Doi in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Kayzie Rogers for 4Kids and by Leah Clark for Funimation.

Helmeppo
Chief Petty Officer Helmeppo (ヘルメッポ) was Morgan's bratty son. He is now a Marine Chief Petty Officer under the command of Garp along with Coby. Helmeppo was a coward who hid behind his father's wealth and power. Helmeppo loved his father and thought his father loved him back. However, Morgan only thinks of Helmeppo as a worthless son. After Morgan was arrested, Helmeppo lost access to all the luxurious life that he once held, and so he reluctantly became a Marine. Since then, Helmeppo went under the tutelage of Garp with Coby. Thanks to Garp, Helmeppo now has very decent fighting abilities as he wields dual kukri as his weapon of choice. He is voiced by Kōichi Nagano in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Sean Schemmel for 4Kids and by Mike McFarland for Funimation.

Fullbody
Seaman Recruit Fullbody (フルボディ), nicknamed "Double Ironfist" Fullbody (両鉄拳のフルボディ), is a Marine Seaman Recruit serving under Captain Hina along with his friend, Jango. Fullbody was once a successful and arrogant Marine Lieutenant who loved entertaining women and considered himself to be a lady's man. However, after a series of unlucky events after meeting the Sanji and the Straw Hats, he has somewhat changed. Since then, Fullbody befriended former pirate Jango. Because he admired Jango's dancing skills, and the fact that Jango helped him fight off a pirate crew, he defended him in court after he was captured, at the cost of his own rank. Later, the two of them become followers and attracted to Hina, however Hina does not return their affection. Fullbody is an adept fighter, using a boxing-like fighting style, while wielding iron knuckle dusters as weapons. He is voiced by Hideo Ishikawa in Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Tom Wayland for 4Kids and by John Burgmeier for Funimation.

Jango
Seaman Recruit Jango (ジャンゴ) used to be the first mate of the Black Cat Pirates, but thanks to Fullbody, Jango is now a Marine Seaman Recruit. Jango is currently good friends with him as they participated in a dance competition together and cooperated to defeat invading pirates. Also, Fullbody helped save Jango from his death sentence. Jango and Fullbody are both romantically attracted to their commanding officer, Captain Hina, but she rebuffs their advances. Jango's weapon of choice are chakrams he uses slashing and hypnosis. Jango's former bounty was 9,000,000 Berries, before he became a marine. He is voiced by Kazuki Yao in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Oliver Wyman for 4Kids and by Kenny Green for Funimation.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea
The Seven Warlords of the Sea (王下七武海) are extremely powerful pirates who have allied themselves with the World Government. They hand over a fraction of their loot to the Government. Other pirates consider the Seven Warlords to be "government dogs". For their allegiance, the World Government pardons these pirates for their crimes and removes their bounties. The Seven Warlords are loosely based on the privateers of Europe, government endorsed pirates considered heroes in their homeland and pillagers in others.

Dracule Mihawk
Dracule Mihawk (ジュラキュール・ミホーク), nicknamed "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk (鷹の目のミホーク), is one of The Seven Warlords of the Sea and the strongest swordsman in the world. He is a pale skinned man who travels in a small boat that is shaped like a coffin. In battle he either wields a knife that he carries as a pendant around his neck or—if he fights a worthy opponent—a claymore, with a black, single edged, curved blade known as the world's strongest sword. He is able to mimic any ability he sees with his eyes granting him the nickname "Hawk-Eye", it is unknown whether a devil fruit is related or not. He is also able a slice objects at a distance like Zoro can, which is called the world's strongest slash. Both weapons bear a resemblance to the Christian cross, a resemblance that was removed in the 4Kids dub by shortening their crossguards. Recently, he appeared at the war in order to help the marines, but he stood down when Shanks arrived. His animal theme is the hawk. He is voiced by Takeshi Aono in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Wayne Grayson for 4Kids and by John Gremillion for Funimation.

Don Quixote Doflamingo
Don Quixote Doflamingo (ドンキホーテ・ドフラミンゴ), nicknamed "Scum of the Sea" (海のクズ), is one of The Seven Warlords of the Sea. His names are a reference to the Miguel de Cervantes' novel Don Quixote and his animal theme, the flamingo, represented by the large coat of pink feathers that he wears. Doflamingo is one of the most carefree characters in One Piece. He seems to have a penchant for dramatic phrasing, as well as a habit of exaggerated posing when giving declarations. He also has an odd habit of sitting on unconventional things, like on the back of chairs, on tables, barrels and, even a pile of bodies in the middle of a war zone. Doflamingo likes to toy around with his opponents and victims in a somewhat sadistic and cruel way. He has the ability to control others using movements with his fingers similar to that of a puppeteer, although no Devil Fruit has been linked officially to this ability as of yet. He believes that the Great Pirate Era is nearing its end and a new age is about to begin. He owns a large auction house at the Sabaody Archipelago, where human and people of other species are sold as slaves. After the war between the pirates and marines ended, he seemingly killed Gecko Moria and said to him that he had orders coming from someone higher up than the marines. Doflamingo also presumably killed Bellamy after he found about Bellamy's humiliating defeat by Luffy. Doflamingo's former bounty is 340,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Hideyuki Tanaka in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Robert McCollum for Funimation.

Gecko Moria
Gecko Moria (ゲッコー･モリア) is the leader of the island-sized ship Thriller Bark and one of The Seven Warlords of the Sea. The Shadow-Shadow Fruit (カゲカゲの実) grants him the ability to control his shadow, allowing it to act completely independent from his body, and to control the shadows of others. Because his last crew was entirely annihilated in the "New World", he created a completely obedient, immortal army of zombies by implanting stolen shadows into corpses. Moria was apparently killed by Warlord Doflamingo in the aftermath of the Battle of Marineford. His animal theme is the gecko. Moria's former bounty is 320,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Katsuhisa Hōki in the Japanese version of the anime.

Hundreds of zombies make up the crew of Thriller Bark. Absalom (アブサロム), nickamed "Graveyard" Absalom (墓場のアブサロム), is a man augmented by Hogback with various animal parts, who ate a paramecia Devil Fruit, called the Clear-Clear Fruit (スケスケの実), that allows him to turn himself and anything he touches invisible. Perona (ペローナ), nicknamed "Ghost Princess" (ゴーストプリンセス), is a woman who ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Hollow-Hollow Fruit (ホロホロの実), allowing her to create various ghosts that can either explode upon command or cause severe depression in an opponent. Hogback (ホグバック) is a medical genius who patches up corpses for Moria's stolen shadows. Using Luffy's shadow, Moria revived the body of Oars (オーズ), nicknamed "Continent Puller" (大陸パラー), who is an extremely huge giant who ruled a country of brigands during his lifetime five hundred years before his resurrection. Using Brook's shadow, Moria revived Ryuma (龍馬) who is a samurai from the Wano Country in the New World who slayed a dragon during his lifetime. Using Zoro's shadow, Moria revived Jigoro (ジゴロウ), nicknamed Jigoro "of the Wind" (風のジゴロウ), who is a samurai who single handedly killed seven-thousand pirates to save his own family. Using Sanji's shadow, Moria revived a penguin, dog corpse named Inuppe (犬ッペ). Moria used a shadow to revive Victoria Cindry (ビクトリア･シンドリー), who was once famous stage actress whom Hogback was in love with, now has plate throwing fighting abilities. Kumacy (クマシー) is a stuffed bear zombie with strength surpassing real bears. Taralan (タララン) is a large zombie of the combination between a monkey and a spider with spider web combat abilities.

Bartholomew Kuma
Bartholomew Kuma (バーソロミュー・くま), nicknamed "Tyrant" (暴君), is one of The Seven Warlords of the Sea. He is based on the real life pirate Bartholomew Roberts. A self-declared pacifist, Kuma is frequently seen carrying a Bible. He has a reputation to be the only Warlord truly obedient to the World Government, although recent events suggest that he is not really obedient to the World Government and may be helping the Revolutionaries. He ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Paw-Paw Fruit (ニキュニキュの実) and thus gained the ability to repel anything he touches with his palms, including physical objects such as people or air as well as abstract things such as pain and fatigue. The fruit also gave him the ability to teleport himself and other people, which he usually does after asking them where they would like to go. Kuma is the model for the Pacifista (パシフィスタ), a class of experimental cyborgs, created by Dr. "Vegapunk". Their bodies are made of a substance harder than steel and from their mouths they can shoot blasts so powerful that they melt even metal. The other pacifista look just like Kuma, sharing his abnormally large stature, but lack the Warlord's Devil Fruit ability. Instead, Vegapunk gave them the ability to shoot laser beams from the palms of their hands.He was the one responsible for separating the entire Straw Hat crew onto different islands. His animal theme is the bear, Kuma is Japanese for "bear". Kuma's former bounty is 296,000,000 Berries. He and his copies are voiced by Hideyuki Hori in the Japanese version of the anime.

Boa Hancock
The "Snake Princess" (蛇姫) Boa Hancock (ボア・ハンコック), or "Pirate Empress" (「海賊女帝」), is a woman of extraordinary beauty, the sole female member of The Seven Warlords of the Sea, leader of the all-female Kuja (九蛇) Tribe, and ruler of Amazon Lily (アマゾン・リリー), an island populated solely by women. She believes that because she is so beautiful, anything bad that she does will be forgiven by everyone, and because of that she is not afraid to hurt pirates, Marines, and even her own people. During their childhood, she and her two sisters were sold as slaves to the Celestial Dragons, who forced them to eat Devil Fruits. She and her sisters still bear the brand of the Celestial Dragons on their backs. To conceal their shameful past from their kinswomen the sisters concocted a story about having defeated a gorgon, claiming that their strange abilities were the result of the Gorgon's Curse and that they have cursed eyes on their backs that would turn anyone who sees them into stone. Hancock consumed the paramecia Love-Love Fruit (メロメロの実) which gave her the ability to turn anyone charmed by her into stone. Unlike the women of the Kuja Tribe who only have Ambition, Hancock has King Ambition. Eventually, she falls in love with Luffy because of his selflessness and helps him infiltrate into the prison Impel Down to rescue his brother Ace. Hancock also participated in the war, and she has drawn suspicion from some of the marine officials due to her secretly helping Luffy. Hancock also decreed that Luffy should recover on Amazon Lily to hide from the World Government. Her animal theme is the snake. Hancock's former bounty is 80,000,000 Berries. She is voiced by Kotono Mitsuishi in the Japanese version of the anime.

Her younger sisters both ate a model of the Snake-Snake Fruit (ヘビヘビの実) which are both zoan type. The middle sister, Boa Sandersonia (ボア・サンダーソニア), ate the anaconda model. The youngest sister, Boa Marigold (ボア・マリーゴールド) ate the cobra model. These fruits' abilities allow them to turn into a snake or a snake-human hybrid of their respective models.

Cipher Pol Number 9
Cipher Pol Number 9 (サイファーポールナンバーナイン), abbreviated as CP9 (シーピーナイン), is the secret, ninth unit of the World Government's intelligence agency Cipher Pol. Specializing in assassination, they utilize a weapon-themed martial art called Rokushiki (六式) which has six different super-human powers called "Rebirth", "Geppo", "Rankyaku", "Shigan", "Soru", and "Tekkai". The group was formerly led by Spandine (スパンダイン) who led the investigation in Ohara and was responsible for summoning the Buster Call.

Spandam
Spandam (スパンダム) is the boss of the CP9, and son of the former boss, Spandine. Like his father, he lacks the fighting abilities of his subordinates. Spandam cares only about himself and is obsessed with rising up through the ranks of the World Government. Spandam is very clumsy (he tends to spill coffee on himself during moments of excitement), and short tempered with special sensitivity towards his name. He often reveals malice when gloating over his prisoners. He is voiced by Masaya Onosaka. In the English dub, he is voiced by Kent Williams for Funimation.

Funk Freed (ファンクフリード), is the name of a sword Spandam uses which has the power of a zoan Devil Fruit called the Elephant-Elephant Fruit (ゾウゾウの実), gives him the ability to transform into an elephant or an elephant-sword hybrid.

Rob Lucci
Rob Lucci (ロブ･ルッチ) is the strongest member of the CP9. Lucci is a man known for ruthlessly and mercilessly enforcing the justice of the World Government. Lucci was first seen as one of the five foremen of Galley-La Company's Dock One at Water 7. However, it was revealed that he is a member of the CP9 operating undercover, in order to obtain the Pluton blueprints from Iceburg. While undercover, Lucci never spoke, preferring to instead talk through his pet pigeon, Hattori, using ventriloquism. Lucci comes off as a cold and collected CP9 agent, almost never displaying any emotions. He seems to derive amusement and gratification from inflicting physical and emotional pain on others, making him a typical sadist. Despite all this apparent lack of morality, Lucci has displayed some, if very little, sympathy for those he dubs innocent. He ate a zoan Devil Fruit called the Cat-Cat Fruit, Model: Leopard (ネコネコの実 モデル：豹 レオパルド), which allows him to transform into a leopard or leopard-human hybrid. Lucci is also the only Rokushiki fighter to use the seventh power, "Rokuohgun" ("Six King Pistol" in the English manga) He is voiced by Tomokazu Seki, in the English dub, he is voiced by Jason Liebrecht for Funimation.

Hattori (ハットリ) is Rob Lucci's pet pidgeon. Hattori was always around him (except while Lucci was fighting). Why Hattori was with Lucci was unknown considering the man's reputation as a heartless mass-murderer, though Lucci has had him since he was a child. He is voiced by Tomokazu Seki in the Japanese version.

Kaku
Kaku (カク), nicknamed "Mountain Wind" (山風), is a member of the CP9. He is first seen as one of the five foremen of Galley-La Company's Dock One at Water 7. It was Kaku that inspected the "Going Merry" and informed The Straw Hat Pirates that it was broken beyond repair. Later on, it is revealed that Kaku is a member of CP9 operating undercover in order to obtain the Pluton blueprints from Iceburg. During the course of the story, he eats a zoan Devil Fruit Ox-Ox Fruit, Model: Giraffe (ウシウシの実 モデル: ジラフ), which grants him the ability to transform into a giraffe or a giraffe-human hybrid. Kaku is also a skilled swordsman using the art of "Four Swords Style" by using his dual katana swords and both legs by using the one of the Rokushiki powers, "Rankyaku". Despite his role as a villain, Kaku is surprisingly honest, even to his enemies, though he doesn't seem to take insults well, but has great sportsmanship in combat. Kaku has a habit of speaking very maturely, despite only being a young adult. He is voiced by Ryōtarō Okiayu in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Jerry Jewell for Funimation.

Jabra
Jabra (ジャブラ) is a member of the CP9. Prior to the events at Enies Lobby, Jabra was sent on a mission beforehand along with Kumadori and Fukuro, to go undercover and assassinate some Revolutionaries. Jabra is extremely competitive, and was outraged that both Lucci and Kaku are stronger than him, especially because Kaku had been weaker when they had last parted ways. Jabra is also very short-tempered, but surprisingly he is the most rational member of the CP9. When in battle, Jabra uses deceptive and underhanded tactics. He also ate a zoan Devil Fruit called the Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Wolf (イヌイヌの実 モデル：狼 ウルフ) which gives him the power to change into a wolf or wolf-human hybrid. Also in combat, Jabra uses a fighting style called "Tekkai Kenpo" ("Iron Body Kung Fu" in the English manga), and is the only Rokushiki fighter capable of moving while using "Tekkai". He is voice by Masaya Takatsuka in the Japanese version.

Blueno
Blueno (ブルーノ) is a member of the CP9. When first introduced, he is seen as a bartender in Water 7 and seems to be the most friendly with Franky and Pauly, talking with them about life and their current activities. He soon shows his true nature when he reveals that he was an undercover CP9 member to obtain Pluton blueprints from Iceburg. While the entire undercover CP9 unit gives the first expression of emotionless justice-devoted killing machines, Blueno is the only one to maintain such a façade. While the other CP9 members are shown taking pleasure in fighting, toying with their opponents and so on, Blueno remains calm and collected nearly all the time. Blueno ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Door-Door Fruit (ドアドアの実), which allows him to create doors of any size through anything he touches. If Blueno creates doors through solid matter, it gives him passage through the object no matter how thick or how strong it is. Blueno can also create doors out of thin air that lead into a pocket dimension of sorts, that is apparently within the air itself, and warp to any desired location. He is voiced by Seiji Sasaki in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Bob Carter for Funimation.

Kumadori
Kumadori (クマドリ) is a member of the CP9. Before the events at Enies Lobby, Kumadori was sent on a mission with Jabra and Fukuro, to go undercover and assassinate some Revolutionaries. Kumadori seems to honor the samurai honor code very heavily as he comically attempts to take his own life (however, he instinctively uses "Tekkai" every time) after dishonoring himself. As he accepts the blame for nearly anything, even faults of others, this happens quite often in his appearances. Kumadori strongly resembles a kabuki actor. He is a very loud character, and often punctuates his sentences with a loud, dramatic, "YOYOI!!" Kumadori has a strange way of speaking, and tends to repeat or draw out syllables and words in the manner of kabuki actors. He also has a penchant for spouting haikus, even during battles and at other inappropriate times. Overall he is the most eccentric character in the CP9. Kumadori's specialty in fighting is using the Rokushiki power, "Rebirth". Unlike the other CP9 members, Kumadori can use his Rebirth power to control and manipulate his hair to grab or attack his enemies. In battle, Kumadori also uses a khakkhara that emits fire. He is voiced by Hiroaki Yoshida in the Japanese version.

Fukuro
Fukuro (フクロウ), nicknamed, Fukuro "The Silent" (音無しのフクロウ) and "Lover of Rumors" (噂好き), is a member of the CP9. Prior to the events at Enies Lobby, Fukuro, along with Jabra and Kumadori, was sent on a mission to go undercover and assassinate some Revolutionaries. Fukuro is an oddly-shaped man with a zipper across his mouth, which has to be open in order for him to speak. Despite having the ability to "zip it", his biggest personality quirk is having a big mouth (both figuratively and literally). Fukuro also has the strange habit of saying "CHAPAPA" after almost every sentence. He also often blurts things out inconsiderately, despite one of his ironic nicknames, "The Silent", which may refer to his theme of an owl, a predatory bird who attacks silently at night. Fukuro is a Rokushiki fighter like the other CP9 members, except he seems to excel at the Rokushiki powers, "Soru" and "Shigan". Fukuro can combine his Soru and Shigan powers to create his own variation of techniques. He is voiced by Kumiko Watanabe in the Japanese version.

Kalifa
Kalifa (カリファ) is the only female member of the CP9. When first seen, Kalifa was Iceburg's secretary who violently kicked anyone that mocked her. She is known for her trademark phrase "That's sexual harassment". In reality, Kalifa is quite sly and crafty, as she enjoys embarrassing her superior, Spandam by accusing him of harassing her, again with her trademark phrase. Despite her initial impression of being completely serious and professional, she was easily flustered during her fight against Nami. She is also rather vain, considering herself so beautiful and sexy that she doesn't need to make her skin smooth with her Devil Fruit power. Although, she is somewhat calm and collected. During the course of the story, Kalifa eats a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Bubble-Bubble Fruit (アワアワの実), which allows her to create cleansing soap and bubbles that are capable of not only to clean off dirt, but can also clean off power making her enemies weak. In the process of cleaning off power, Kalifa's victims are left in a clean, shiny, and slippery state that is extremely smooth. She is voiced by Naomi Shindo in the Japanese version.

Impel Down Personnel
Impel Down (インペルダウン) is one of three main locations of the World Government (alongside with Marineford and Enies Lobby), and is known as the world's greatest prison. Impel Down possess a system of levels where the prisoners are sent depending on their crimes; the most dangerous and insanely powerful criminals are sent to Level 6, and the less dangerous to Levels 1-5.

Magellan
Magellan (マゼラン) is the Chief Warden of Impel Down. Magellan ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Venom-Venom Fruit (ドクドクの実) that allows him to generate and manipulate poison such as breathing simple and minor toxic gas to put subordinates in place, blowing tear gas-bubbles to stun the opponents, or create an extremely fatal liquid poison. Because of the fruit's powers, Magellan is immune to all types of poison. The poison also gives his food flavor. The ends of Magellan's horns that are detachable, and can be worn like gloves over his fingers for slashing. Magellan's biggest quirk is that, although his Devil Fruit power gives him immunity from actually being poisoned, it doesn't spare him from diarrhea caused from eating poisoned food. As a result, he spends approximately ten hours each day in the bathroom relieving himself and eight hours sleeping. Though he only performs roughly four hours of duty per day as Chief Warden of Impel Down, he still takes his role quite seriously and does not tolerate the prisoners' bad behavior, as he has permission to execute any one of them he sees fit. Magellan also takes great pride in keeping Impel Down's reputation of being impenetrable and inescapable. Magellan seems to find it amusing whenever someone he doesn't particularly like gets poisoned or suffocated by his powers. He is voiced by Mitsuaki Hoshino in the Japanese version.

Hannyabal
Hannyabal (ハンニャバル) is the Vice Warden of Impel Down. Hannyabal has a habit of saying he owns everything and then having to apologize afterwards for getting ahead of himself. He does this because he is an ambitious person. He also seems to be prone to freudian slips, which often give insight to his previously mentioned, ambitious qualities and his somewhat dark brand of humor. Hannyabal usually tries to show off how tough he really is to the prisoners, which is the reason he is admired amongst the guards. Hannyabal cares more about his own position than the security and welfare of the prison, however he seems only willing to let prisoners escape if they are relatively harmless and show genuine concern when powerful prisoners try to escape. Despite his seemingly lack of seriousness most of the time, due to his desire to get Magellan fired, Hannyabal may get serious when the situation gets to the extreme, especially if he risks getting fired too. His weapon of choice is a kessui (a double bladed naginata). If Hannybal spins it wildly, it create flames to deter any opponent. He is voiced by Tetsuo Goto in the Japanese version.

Sadie
Sadie (セイディ) is one out of the two Chief Guards of Impel Down. Sadie is a sadistic person who enjoys bringing pain and torture to others, including Marine allies, and can't seem to get enough of their screams, getting sexually excited hearing them. She also seems to have extreme pride in the virtually perfect defenses of Impel Down, and refuses the assistance of the Marines. She also tends to add an "mmmmm--!?" in the middle of her sentences. Sadie greatly resembles a dominatrix in design and personality. In battle, Sadie uses a thin, torturing whip. She is voiced by Yuka Koyama in the Japanese version.

Saldeath
Saldeath (サルデス) is one out of the two Chief Guards of Impel Down. Saldeath is not nearly as brutal as the other workers of Impel Down, telling his captives that they should be thankful they were captured by him. Nevertheless, he takes the position bestowed upon him in Impel Down very seriously. He is easily annoyed when Luffy constantly mistakes him for a monkey. Saldeath wields a trident. He is voiced by Kazuya Nakai in the Japanese version.

The Four Emperors
The Four Emperors (四皇) are the most powerful pirates in the New World. They form a precarious Balance of Power with The Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Marine Headquarters that keeps the world at peace. The group consists of "Shanks", "Whitebeard", "Kaido", and "Big Mom".

The Red-Haired Pirates
The Red-Haired Pirates (赤髪海賊団) are a strong crew ruling over the New World, led by Captain Shanks. This crew is responsible for influencing both Monkey D. Luffy and Usopp. The name of their ship is "Red Force" (レッド・フォース号)

Shanks
Captain Shanks (シャンクス), nicknamed "Red-Haired" Shanks (「赤髪のシャンクス」), is the captain of the Red-Haired Pirates and one of the Four Emperors. Shanks is one of the most laid back characters in the world of One Piece, preferring to take his time as he and his crew travels around the world rather than rushing from one place to another. Shanks isn't cruel like many other pirate captains, nor does he rule over his crew with fear to gain respect. His friendly nature means he won't purposely seek to harm others. Shanks doesn't seem to mind what happens to himself; he'll take others throwing food and drink or spitting on him without fighting back and laugh with his crew at his own misfortunes. However he would never forgive anyone for attacking a friend. Shanks is a former member of the Roger Pirates, where he had a rivalry with Buggy. At the beginning of the series, Shanks loses his left arm while saving 7-year-old Luffy's life, and afterwards entrusts the boy with his favorite straw hat. Shanks is a skilled swordsman. Before he lost his arm, he used to have frequent duels with Dracule Mihawk. He also has King Ambition, which allows him to render beings of weak determination in his proximity unconscious. Shanks recently appeared during the Battle of Marineford, with the purpose of bringing it to an end. Oda states that Shanks is the One Piece character that most resembles himself, because of his fun-loving, partying nature. He is voiced by Shūichi Ikeda in Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Tom Souhrada for 4Kids, and by Brandon Potter for Funimation.

Ben Beckman
Ben Beckman (ベン・ベックマン) is the first mate of the Red-Haired Pirates. Beckman appears to be a lot less fun-loving than the other members of the crew and a lot more relaxed, acting as the level headed member. At times he seems amazed at the actions of Shanks, such as panicking when Luffy was taken, or getting even more drunk when he had already drunk a lot before hand when Mihawk brought news of Luffy's coming. He is first to speak out amongst the crew when they appear. He is also the first to ask questions on situations, such as whether the World Government would try to stop them seeing Whitebeard. Beckman carries a flintlock rifle with him, but he uses it more as a club of some sort than firing it. Beckman appears to have some sort of unknown special power that can be used in conjunction with the gun. He is voiced by Aruno Tahara in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Sean Hennigan for Funimation.

Yasopp
Yasopp (ヤソップ) is the sharpshooter of the Red-Haired Pirates, and the father of Usopp and husband of Banchina. He shares many personality traits with his son, including being able to encourage the rest of his crew to join in with his fun. He is very proud of his son Usopp, to the point where he would often talk over and over again about his son to Luffy (which led Luffy to recognize Usopp on sight from Yasopp's stories alone). During his time in Luffy's village Yasopp felt close to Luffy, who was the same age as Usopp, because he was separated from his son Usopp. Yasopp is portrayed as a virtually unequaled sharpshooter, capable of shooting the antennas off an ant at 100 feet without harming the rest of it. Being a sniper, Yasopp carries guns around with him almost all the time. He is mostly seen carrying a musket, likely from personal preference. He is voiced by Michitaka Kobayashi in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Jason Anthony Griffith for 4Kids, and by Scott Freeman for Funimation.

Lucky Roux
Lucky Roux (ラッキー・ルウ) is a member of the Red-Haired Pirates. Lucky appears to be a very fun loving pirate who is often seen hanging around Yasopp. He is the first person to actually kill someone in One Piece and sets the stage for the series; a pirate's life is a dangerous one. Lucky also has a very large appetite as he is seen swallowing a whole barrel of sake by himself. He is almost always shown with a large grin even during the war, holding a large rack of meat in at least one hand. Reports of Lucky being the fastest man in the world has been passed off as a myth and hasn't been confirmed to this date. So far, Lucky has been seen using a flintlock as his weapon of choice. He is voiced by Jin Domon in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by David Brimmer for 4Kids, and by John Burgmeier for Funimation.

Rockstar
Rockstar (ロックスター), nicknamed "Rookie" (ルーキー), is a member of the Red-Haired Pirates. Before joining the Red-Haired Pirates, he claimed to have been once a famous and big-time pirate of a different pirate crew. Rockstar is a confident member of Shanks' crew who seems to have a lot of pride. When he was insulted by Whitebeard's men, he wanted to fight them because they had damaged his honor. He also tried to use the strength of his captain to back up the importance of a letter he delivered to Whitebeard. He seems very loyal to his captain, sticking up for him in front of Whitebeard. So far, Rockstar's fighting abilities have not been seen yet. Rockstar's current bounty is 94,000,000 Berries. He was voiced by Daisuke Gōri in Japanese version, but with the passing of Gōri, his new voice actor has yet to be named. In the English dub, he is voiced by Andrew Chandler for Funimation.

The Whitebeard Pirates
The Whitebeard Pirates (白ひげ海賊団) are the strongest pirate crew in the world. They are led by Captain Whitebeard, also known as by his real name, Captain Edward Newgate, who was the only person to have ever tied with Gol D. Roger in a fight. The Whitebeard Pirates are divided into sixteen divisions of one hundred men, each led by a high ranking Whitebeard Pirate. Following the death of Whitebeard, their fate is as of yet unknown. The name of their ship is "Moby Dick" (モビーディック号)

Whitebeard
Captain Whitebeard (白ひげ), his real name is Edward Newgate (エドワード・ニューゲート), is the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, one of the Four Emperors, and regarded as the world's strongest pirate. Whitebeard is a very large human with a large white mustache in the shape of an upward bound crescent moon. He is usually seen attached to medical equipment and surrounded by nurses. Fighting with a bisento as his weapon, he was the only man who was able to match Gol D. Roger in combat and is the one closest to obtaining his treasure, "One Piece." Whitebeard ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Tremor-Tremor Fruit (グラグラの実), which allows him to create shock waves powerful enough to cause earthquakes, tsunamis and even split an island in two. He also has King Ambition. Fleet Admiral Sengoku even claims that Whitebeard's powers could destroy the world. He considers all his crewmen as his sons and will protect them with all his might if they are threatened. Whitebeard believes it is impossible to live in the world without humanity and justice. However, in the "Battle of Marineford", Whitebeard is killed at the hands of the Blackbeard Pirates. He is voiced by Kinryu Arimoto in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dub, he is voiced by R. Bruce Elliott for Funimation.

Marco
Marco (マルコ), nicknamed "Phoenix" Marco (不死鳥のマルコ), is the first division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, who, following Whitebeard's death, are now under his command. Marco appears to be a patient and calm, mild-mannered man. He also appears to be somewhat playful, pretending to be hurt from attack with obvious sarcasm, though he can also quickly become serious. Marco clearly cares for his crew because he warned them to stay back to avoid his Ambition. Marco also ate an unnamed mythical-creature zoan Devil Fruit that allows him to transform into a phoenix or phoenix-human hybrid. He is voiced by Masakazu Morita in the Japanese version.

Portgas D. Ace
Portgas D. Ace (ポートガス・D・エース), nicknamed "Fire Fist" Ace (火拳のエース), is the second division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, and he is Luffy's adopted older brother. Though it is implied at first that he is the son of Monkey D. Dragon, but he is actually the son of Gol D. Roger and Portgas D. Rouge (ポートガス・D・ルージュ). Rejecting his biological male parent, he only recognizes Whitebeard as his father and took the surname of his mother, because he owes her a great debt. To conceal his existence from the World Government, Rouge carried him for twenty months before giving birth. Afterwards, she died from exhaustion. Ace ate a logia Devil Fruit called the Flame-Flame Fruit (メラメラの実) which allows him to manipulate, create, and transform into fire. He is also able to have Ambition (覇気). Ace habitually falls asleep in the middle of meals or conversations, a trait also seen with Luffy and Garp. His back bears the mark of Whitebeard–a skull with a white mustache superimposed over a manji. The manji was changed to crossbones in the anime and in later chapters of the manga.Ace was a also the former captain of the "Spade Pirates". At the Battle of Marineford, Ace's fire was no match for Admiral Akainu's magma powers. Ace eventually sacrifices his life to protect Luffy, much to Luffy's horror. Ace ranked in the Top 10 of both Shōnen Jump character popularity polls since the character's introduction. He is voiced by Toshio Furukawa in the Japanese version of the anime.

He appears to be quite unrelenting to his enemies as he had no qualms in attempting to strike an almost-downed enemy a second time immediately after a first hit. He is very loyal to Whitebeard and his crew. Jozu ate an unnamed, unknown class Devil Fruit that gives him the ability to greatly increase his offensive and defensive powers. Jozu's already strong physical attacks and defenses are enhanced by the density of his diamond body. His incredible durability was witnessed at the Battle of Marineford, where Jozu was able to withstand Dracule Mihawk's "strongest slash in the world". He is voiced by Takashi Nagasako in the Japanese version.

Thatch
Thatch (サッチ) was the fourth division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates. Thatch was one of the first to try befriending Ace when he had arrived on the ship. Ace responded cynically, and questioned why he is not being held with shackles while on board of the Moby Dick, Thatch merely gave an amused look, as though he believes that was unnecessary. Thatch later found the Dark-Dark Fruit, the Devil Fruit that Blackbeard was after for a long time. This Devil Fruit was the very reason that Blackbeard joined the Whitebeard Pirates, so he killed Thatch and ran off with it, leaving his former commander, Ace, to hunt him down for revenge. All that is known about Thatch's fighting abilities, was that he was a swordsman.

Vista
Vista (ビスタ), nicknamed "Flower Sword" (花剣), is the fifth division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates. Like all division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates, Vista seems to be very loyal to Whitebeard. He also seems to be modest. Vista is a tall man with a curly mustache and a top hat that resembles a stereotypical villain. Vista is a swordsman that dual-wields katana swords. He seems to be a swordsman of world renown, shown by the fact that Dracule Mihawk commented that only a fool would not know Vista's name. Vista lives up to his reputation, and was capable of matching Mihawk in sword combat. Vista is also capable of using Ambition.

Luffy, Emporio Ivankov, Buggy and Galdino became too allies of Whitebeard.

But unlike the other people with the Spirit of D., he has a stern and serious demeanor, however in all of his appearances thus far, except at Gol D. Roger's execution, he is seen with a smug grin on his face. Dragon speaks as though he is a mystic of sorts and apparently doesn't like to speak of, or be asked about, his past. He also has a strange habit of always looking towards the East Blue when in the wind. Dragon is the World Government's greatest enemy and is the most wanted man in the world. It is also strongly hinted that Dragon was behind the events at Logue Town, such as causing a lightning bolt, the sudden, severe rain, and blowing strong winds.

For that reason, he was pursued by Ace who eventually confronts him. After defeating Ace and turning him in to the World Government, he was appointed the replacement for Crocodile as a Warlord. After appearing at Impel Down, Blackbeard reveals that the only reason he wanted the Warlord title was so he could gain the government's trust, pass through the Gates of Justice, and infiltrate Impel Down; having done that, he claims he no longer needs it.

He is also quite shy, as he acts scared when people realize who he is and continues hiding while the rest of the crew fights Whitebeard. In fact, Wolf was the only person there who did not fight in that war. Wolf is the largest giant in the world, but his combat abilities are unknown.

True to his moniker, he is also always been seen chugging on a large gourd of sake upon his introduction and has a drunk appearance from it. He seems to wear the gourd on his back. Vasco's fighting abilities are completely unknown.

Catalina Devon (カタリーナ・デボン), nicknamed "Crescent Moon Hunter" (若月狩り), is the only female member of the Blackbeard Pirates and was originally one of the legendary criminals who was given a life sentence in Level 6 of Impel Down. She was eventually freed from prison by the Blackbeard Pirates, and since then became a member of their crew. Devon appears to be an older woman, possibly in her 40s to 50s, but with her hair in a set of girlish pigtails. Not much is known about her personality as to date. Although, when the marines recognized her for the first time she mentioned that she "liked them too" which suggests that she is a somewhat sarcastic person.

He also seems some nostalgic about things, and has a tendency to say "meow" at the end of his sentences. Pizarro's fighting abilities have not yet been seen, but there are spiral shaped objects are attached to his arms, and could be the resemblance of drills. Whether or not these are part of a Devil Fruit power or not, remains unknown.

Nefertari Cobra
Nefertari Cobra (ネフェルタリ・コブラ) is the King of Alabasta and Vivi's father. Cobra is very wise and fair, and cares deeply for his kingdom and people even though they rebelled against him. He is compassionate toward his subjects, but does not go too far in doing so, as when Koza demands that he use Dance Powder, he explains that other countries need rain. He can be humble and self-sacrificing as a king, bowing before the Straw Hat Pirates in the bath for helping his daughter, justifying it by saying that without his clothes, he does not have his status as a king, and is doing it as a father. Cobra is charitable, paying to support the citizens of Koza's village out of the Royal Family's living expenses. He is voiced by Iemasa Kayumi in the Japanese version.

Vivi's closet friend is her spot-billed duck Karoo who she rides through Alabasta. She is a weak fighter but cannot bear to abandon anyone even if it means her own death and as long as there is a chance of saving everyone from a dangerous situation, she is willing to risk countless lives to do it.

He acts very unique as he does sometimes exactly what he is told, like giving his hand, or doing exactly something opposite like drinking all his water although Vivi tells him to conserve his water in the desert. He is voiced by Hiroaki Hirata in Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Michael Haigney for 4Kids, and by Monica Rial for Funimation.

Igaram

He was known as a Frontier Agent, under the codename of "Mr. 8" (ミスター・エイト), of Baroque Works before being exposed.

Pell appears to have a soft side, gently conversing with Vivi as a child when she asked about his role as a guardian. He also seemed to have shown his strong loyalty to Alabasta, as he selflessly sacrificed him life to save the country from the exploding time bomb Crocodile had set. However, Pell survived the explosion. He ate a zoan Devil Fruit called the Bird-Bird Fruit, Model: Falcon (トリトリの実 モデル：隼 ファルコン), and thus can transform into a falcon or falcon-human hybrid. Also in combat, Pell uses machine guns. He is voiced by Kenji Nojima in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Marc Diraison for 4Kids, and by Kevin M. Connolly for Funimation.

Natural born leader, he was the leader of the Sand Sand Clan when he was a kid, and later took the head of the rebel army. Courageous, (as a kid, he did not hesitate to attack a bandit who was threatening Vivi), he always tries to protect his friends, his village or his country when he thinks they are in danger. Koza is also a decent fighter, as he is a swordsman who uses a jian sword in combat. He is voiced by Takeshi Kusao in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Jonathan Todd Ross for 4Kids, and by Todd Haberkorn for Funimation.

Toto
Toto (トト) is Koza's father, and Aswa's husband. Originally, Toto was deeply afraid of Cobra, due to the great distance between his and the king's social statuses. He was usually afraid that Cobra would enact some great punishment of sorts if ever he or his son, Koza, would step out of place. However after getting to know Cobra and his daughter, Vivi, personally, Toto came to admire Cobra. The two had become good friends and ever since then Toto had great faith in Cobra. He is voiced by Masaaki Tsukada in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Sean Schemmel for 4Kids, and by Jerry Russell for Funimation.

In the English dub, she was voiced by Maeghan Albach for Funimation.

Terracotta
Terracotta (テラコッタ) is the Royal Head Chef, and wife of Igaram. Terracotta looks almost identical to Igaram which prompts some characters to accuse her of being Igaram in drag.

In the English dubs, she is voiced by David Wills for 4Kids, and by Antimere Robinson for Funimation.

The Buggy Pirates
The Buggy Pirates (バギー海賊団) are a band of pirates, led by Captain Buggy. While the Buggy Pirates have an average number of crewmates, Buggy managed to recruit some of the Impel Down breakout convicts from Level 2 to form an even bigger crew. The name of their ship is "Big Top" (ビッグトップ号)

Buggy
Captain Buggy (バギー), nicknamed Buggy "the Clown" (道化のバギー), is the ruthless captain of the circus-themed Buggy Pirates, who is known for his love of cannons. He is particularly sensitive when it comes to his big, red, round nose and when insulted, will even resort to killing his own men. Nevertheless, he is beloved by his crew. Years before the series' present, while a member of the "Roger Pirates", he brought a Devil Fruit and a treasure map into his possession. He intended to sell the fruit and to search for the treasure, but Shanks (his former friend) accidentally caused Buggy to swallow the fruit and drop the map into the sea. Buggy holds a grudge against Shanks ever since. The fruit he swallowed was a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Chop-Chop Fruit (バラバラの実). Having eaten it, it allows him to separate his body into parts and to control these parts independently of each other as long as they remain in his proximity; and, as long as at least one of his feet is on the ground, he can levitate the other parts. This ability also makes him immune to cutting attacks; any such attack will only separate him into parts. Later in the series, he is captured and put into Impel Down, the undersea prison, and breaks out with the help of Luffy and the other prisoners. He also has a compact cannonball that it seems he shoots out of his shoe called the Muggy Ball. Buggy's current bounty is 15,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Shigeru Chiba in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by David Wills for 4Kids, and by Mike McFarland for Funimation. Oda said that Buggy is his favorite antagonist, because of all of the antagonists Buggy is the easiest for him to draw.

Mohji
Mohji (モージ), nicknamed "Beast Tamer" (猛獣使い), is the first mate of the Buggy Pirates. He is a pet tamer, usually accompanied by his pet lion Richie. Mohji is quite pompous and at times silly. He has also displays a strong rivalry with Cabaji. He tends to treat Richie better than most other people and adores the big lion. He even took it offensively when Richie was used as a shield by Cabaji. Mohji has the ability to control any animal he wishes, or so he says. He has yet to prove it in the series outside of his pet, Richie. Mohji usually opts to use him in battle rather than fight himself. He uses a whip in battle. He is voiced by Shigenori Soya in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Tom Souhrada for 4Kids, and by Chuck Huber for Funimation.

Richie
Richie (リチー) is Mohji's pet lion. Despite his size and fierce look he mostly acts like a kitten and has his goofy moments when he is doing nothing. He also is not very bright and occasionally thinks about nothing but food. However, if Mohji commands him to do so, Richie can use his immense strength to kill his enemies. He is voiced by Tetsu Inada in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Mike McFarland for Funimation.

Cabaji
Cabaji (カバジ), nicknamed Cabaji "the Acrobat" (曲芸のカバジ), is the second mate of the Buggy Pirates. Cabaji is always serious, mysterious, and elegant. He appears concerned somewhat for Buggy, along with Mohji. He is usually by Buggy's side, unlike Mohji, who is ordered to do other things. Cabaji doesn't seem to care for Mohji's pet lion, Richie, at all, even using him as a shield. Cabaji fights with a combination of swordplay and acrobatics (mostly on a unicycle) to fight his enemies. Cabaji also uses carnival tricks for attacks as well. He is voiced by Endou Moriya in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Wayne Grayson for 4Kids, and by Greg Ayres for Funimation.

Alvida
Alvida (アルビダ), nicknamed "Iron Club" Alvida (金棒のアルビダ), is the former captain of the Alvida Pirates. Alvida joins the Buggy Pirates in search of Luffy after they both are defeated by him. She pursues Luffy with the purpose of making him "her man," for he was the first man to defeat her. Alvida sees herself as the most beautiful lady in all of the seas; if someone disagrees, she will smash the offender with her spiked club. Though obese at the beginning of the series, she ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Smooth-Smooth Fruit (スベスベの実), which makes her thin and allows attacks to easily slip off of her. Alvida's weapon of choice is an iron spiked club (hence the nickname). She is named after the Scandinavian pirate Awilda. Alvida's current bounty is 5,000,000 Berries. She is voiced by Yoko Matsuoka in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, she is voiced by Kayzie Rogers and Caren Manuel for 4Kids, and by Laurie Steele for Funimation.

Other Major Characters
The characters listed below have no connection to any origination what so ever. Therefore, they act on their own.

Crocodile
Crocodile (クロコダイル), nicknamed "Sir" Crocodile (サー･クロコダイル), is a former a member of The Seven Warlords of the Sea and, unbeknown to the World Government, the boss of the criminal organization Baroque Works under the codename of "Mr. 0" (ミスター・ゼロ), and his former partner was Nico Robin, who was under the codename of "Ms. All-Sunday". Crocodile lacks almost any code of honor and does not see the point in offering those who are about to die a chance of dying honorably. Although he has referred to many of his opponents' struggles as worthless in the past, he hasn't referred to his opponents' struggles, since he first fought Luffy. Crocodile has shown to be extremely cynical and cold-hearted. He displays complete disregard of the romantic pirate lifestyle, stating that all the things the King of the Pirates once had mean nothing to him. He places more importance in military power. Crocodile believes that only ignorant fools declare their grandiose dreams. Several times, he refers to trust and faith in others as idiotic. He has stated that he has done away with countless people like that. He goes so far as to mock those who fight for others, making their defeats to him all the more harsh. He also, by his own admission, admits that he is not rational at times. After the Straw Hat Pirates thwarted Crocodile's plans to overthrow the Alabasta Kingdom with Baroque Works, he was stripped of his Warlord status and sent to the government prison Impel Down in Level 6.– He ate a logia Devil Fruit called the Sand-Sand Fruit (スナスナの実), which allows him to manipulate sand, absorb moisture with his right hand, and as long as he is not wet, he can turn his body into sand. Crocodile also has a large golden alloy hook in place of a left hand, that contains a potent poison and a dagger underneath. Crocodile's current bounty is 81,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Ryūzaburō Ōtomo in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Michael Alston Baley for 4Kids, and by John Swasey for Funimation.

Jimbei
Jimbei (ジンベエ), nicknamed "First Son of the Sea" (海の最初の息子), is a yakuza-esque whale shark fishman, and a former member of The Seven Warlords of the Sea. Jimbei is a proud fishman with great pride and honor. Despite being proud, Jimbei appears to put his priorities and principles over his honor, and is not above retreating from an otherwise unfinished battle (even being shamed or openly mocked by an opponent) if it meant for the sake of the greater good. While he is a fishman with great emotional control, he is empathetic, and understanding of the pains of others, such as being brought to tears when Luffy broke down emotionally in front of him after he had awoken from the Battle of Marineford. In exchange for the World Government granting him Warlord-status, Jimbei disbanded his pirate crew, the "Sunny Pirates" (who were formerly led by "Fisher Tiger" until he died), part of which became the Arlong Pirates. Though the World Government knows him as a pirate-hating pirate, he has a weakness for Whitebeard and his men, due to Whitebeard's declaration that Fishman Island is his territory and thus under his protection, which scares off slave traders and pirates and brought peace to the area. For refusing to raise a hand against Whitebeard, Jimbei was thrown into the world's greatest prison, Impel Down in Level 6, until he agrees to go to war against Whitebeard. However, he remained adamant and eventually resigned his position. Jimbei is a master of "Fishman Karate". His strikes are so strong, that he does not even need to make physical contact with an enemy as the very air will blow them away. Jimbei also displays being able to manipulate water as if it were a tangible cloth through Fishman Karate. Among fishmen, Jimbei has shown the unique ability to communicate with fish, even at a long distance. Jimbei's current bounty is 250,000,000 Berries. He was voiced by Daisuke Gōri in the Japanese version for two episodes until his death in 2010, after which he is replaced by Katsuhisa Hōki.

Gol D. Roger
Gol D. Roger (ゴール・D・ロジャー), sometimes known as Gold Roger (ゴールド・ロジャー), at the time of The Straw Hat Pirates' journey, is the man referred to as King of the Pirates (海賊王), and was captain of the "Roger Pirates". Suffering from an incurable disease, he decided to make a complete voyage through the Grand Line with his crew. Afterward, he disbanded the crew and turned himself over to the World Government, who announced that they captured him. At his execution, twenty-two years before the beginning of the series, he stated that he left all of his treasures in one piece, and that it is up for the taking. This spawned the "The Great Pirate Era", with various pirates looking to become the King of the Pirates, by finding the treasure referred to as the "One Piece". He is able to listen to "the voice of all things", allowing him to read the Poneglyphs. He is the father of Portgas D. Ace. He is voiced by Chikao Ōtsuka in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Greg Carey for 4Kids, and by Sean Hennigan for Funimation

Silvers Rayleigh
Silvers Rayleigh (シルバーズ・レイリー), nicknamed Dark King (冥王) (formerly, "King of the Pirates' Right Hand" (海賊王の右腕)) is the former first mate of the "Roger Pirates". Rayleigh is light hearted, casual and fun loving, much like his captain Gol D. Roger was supposed to have been. In the past he was shown to have been intolerable to the antics of the younger members arguing, and took the position of crew disciplinarian very seriously. Despite once being enemies with the Whitebeard Pirates, Rayleigh seems to have great respect for their captain, like Roger, and shed a tear for Whitebeard's passing. He has settled down on the Sabaody Archipelago, where he works as a coating mechanic. Rayleigh has King Ambition (覇王色の覇気), a so far unexplained ability that can, among other things, make weak people pass out. He can aim it at multiple targets in his vicinity. It also allows him to render users of logia Devil Fruit users vulnerable to physical attack. Rayleigh has shown the ability to use a sword. Although, he does comment he is out of practice. Rayleigh admits that the former Roger Pirates know of what happened during the Blank Century. He has been friends with Hachi for twenty years, ever since he was saved by him, when he was cast away at sea. Currently, he is training Luffy on how to master his Haki power. He is voiced by Keiichi Sonobe in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Bradford Hutson for Funimation.

Crocus
Crocus (クロッカス) was a former member and doctor of the "Roger Pirates". Crocus is a wise and caring man and has a strange habit to take his time when it comes to answer questions. Fifty years before the current storyline, Crocus met the "Rumbar Pirates" as they entered the Grand Line through Reverse Mountain from the West Blue. Crocus promised to take care of their pet whale "Laboon" while they journeyed the Grand Line. However despite the Rumbar Pirates' promise to come back after two to three years, Crocus didn't meet them again at the promised time and waited much longer. Twenty-four years later, Crocus met the Roger Pirates who came into the Grand Line through Reverse Mountain. Learning that their captain, Gol D. Roger, was suffering from an incurable disease, Crocus was asked by the pirates to join them as their doctor in order to help stabilize Roger's health as they journeyed the Grand Line. Wanting to find out what had happened to the Rumbar Pirates, Crocus accepted their offer and joined them. After Roger was executed, Crocus returned to Laboon and his home in the entrance to the Grand Line. Crocus is a very tough and powerful fighter. He uses harpoons as his weapon of choice, and is even strong enough to kill Sea Kings. He is voiced by Goro Naya in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Jerry Russell for Funimation.

Bon Clay
Bentham (ベンサム), codenamed and more commonly referred to as "Mr. 2 Bon Clay" (Mr. 2 ボン・クレー), is a transvestite (オカマ), who is skilled at "Ballet Kenpo", and also ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Clone-Clone Fruit (マネマネの実), which gives him the ability to transform into an exact copy of anyone whose face he once touched with his right hand (he is able to change back with his left hand). Bon Clay has a flamboyant attitude which includes singing and dancing. As opposed to the ideas of his fellow agents, Bon Clay values friendship highly, as evidenced by his selfless sacrifice to allow the Straw Hat Pirates to escape Alabasta. As a former Officer Agent of Baroque Works, Bon Clay was the only agent without a female partner, because as a transvestite, he fills both roles by himself. Likewise, his codename is a composite of a male Baroque Works agent's number, "Mr. 2", and a female agent's holiday, "Bon Clay", which is the end of the Bon Festival. After the Alabasta Revolution To Save Luffy and his crew, Bon Clay was captured and arrested by Captain Hina of the Marines, and was put into Impel Down on Level 3. He eventually became Luffy's ally and sacrifices himself to let Luffy escape Impel Down. It is unknown if Bon Clay was killed by Chief Warden Magellan or not. Bon Clay's current bounty is 32,000,000 Berries. He is voiced by Kazuki Yao in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Kevin Kolack for 4Kids, and by Barry Yandell for Funimation.

Galdino
Galdino (ギャルディーノ) is a former Officer Agent of Baroque Works and was under the codename of "Mr. 3" (ミスター・スリー), alongside his former partner "Ms. Golden Week". Crocodile only allowed Galdino to hold his position in the organization as Mr. 3 because of his cunning intelligence and that Mr. 4 was too mentally slow. Otherwise, he would be lower ranked. After being sent to Impel Down on Level 2, he escaped with the assistance of Buggy, whom he shared a kindred bond with, and Luffy, an alliance that, while weak, proves itself on some occasions. In Impel Down, he proves his overall lack of fighting spirit many times. He acts like a coward and backs up Buggy's escape plan over Luffy's much more dangerous rescue mission. When Magellan reaches the fleeing group during their escape, Galdino shows a moment of bravery, but admits he could only hold it together for a brief moment. He takes part at the Battle of Marineford alongside the other Impel Down escapees. Galdino ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Wax-Wax Fruit (ドルドルの実), a Devil Fruit which allows him to tap infinite amounts of a special candle wax from his body. He can manipulate this wax to form any shape he desires, control its motion in both liquid and hardened states, and harden it to become as strong as steel. He usually crafts artistic weapons with such wax, which, when used at its maximum peak, was strong enough to take down a pirate with a bounty of 42,000,000. He can also manipulate a small amount of fire. He is shown to be close friends with Bon Clay He is voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voice by Tom Souhrada for 4Kids, and by Duncan Brannan for Funimation.

Hatchan
Hatchan (はっちゃん), better known as his nickname, Hachi, is an octopus fishman and first introduced as the first mate of the Arlong Pirates. Like all fishmen, he has ten times the strength of a human, can breath underwater, and swim very fast. Being half octopus, he can spit large quantities of black ink or use his suction pads to stick to walls. Additionally, he fights using the "Six Swords Style", holding one in each arm-tentacle. After Arlong and his crew were defeated and captured by the marines, Hachi escapes and opens a floating takoyaki restaurant. He becomes close friends with Camie and constantly rescues her from Sea Kings and slave traders.

Daz Bonez was a bounty hunter from the West Blue. Daz Bonez is stern, emotionless and confident. He is dead-serious at all times and does not tolerate weakness or frivolity. Daz Bonez also seems to have some views, such as the notion that having friendships makes one weak. On the inverse side, he also does not seem to care for grudges either. He ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Dice-Dice Fruit (スパスパの実) which allows his body to become bladed steel. He was defeated by Zoro and sent to [[#Impel Down|Impel Down on Level 4 after the Alabasta Revolution. He assists Crocodile and, unintentionally, Monkey D.

Camie and Pappagu also have the most unfortunate luck of getting eaten by Sea Kings almost every time. Camie also has the unfortunate luck of getting captured almost every time, though it is likely, because she is so naive and gullible. She is voiced by Haruna Ikezawa in the Japanese version.

Pappagu
Pappagu (パッパグ) is Camie's pet starfish and master. Pappagu is the creator of the "Criminal" fashion line and is mentoring Camie to be a famous fashion designer.

The members were promised high positions in the ideal nation Crocodile planned to create on the Alabastan soil. However, Crocodile's ultimate goal was to turn that nation into the world's strongest military power by obtaining the ancient weapon Pluton, which is hidden somewhere in the country. The organization was led by thirteen male agents, who use the code names Mr. 0 through Mr. 13, and their female partners, who used code names taken from weekdays or holidays. The agents Mr. 0 through Mr. 5 and their partners were called Officer Agents and commanded the 200 lower ranking members called Billions. The agents Mr. 6 through Mr. 13 and their partners were called Frontier Agents.

Her personality is that of one laid back to the point of fault. She, for instance, is perfectly fine with having a picnic during an ongoing battle. Another example of this was when she sat a few feet away from a cup of tea, and apparently was too lazy to walk over to it and pick it up herself. In battle, Ms. Golden Week uses a paint palette and paint brush. If the paint Ms. Golden Week uses touches anybody, then their emotions and behavior are changed, depending what color paint touches them. She is voiced by Akiko Nakagawa in the Japanese version.

He seems incapable of thinking for himself at all and often just did what his partner told him to do. He laughs freely, but speaks rarely and very slowly, usually taking most of a scene to articulate a short sentence. Mr. 4 is very physically strong, and able to wield a baseball bat that weighs four tons with no effort, but extremely slow in nature.

Ms. Merry Christmas talks very fast, often only pronouncing the first syllable of the word in a high-pitched, child-like voice. She takes a cynical view towards those like Luffy who wish to become the King of the Pirates, and quite happily informed Usopp and Chopper that Luffy was dead, and that the world would be better off without dreamers like him. Ms. Merry Christmas ate a zoan Devil Fruit called the Mole-Mole Fruit (モグモグの実) that gave her the ability to transform into a mole or mole-human hybrid.

Galdino described him as an "over-ambitious fool who did not realize his limits and misused his Devil Fruit powers". However, Mr. 5 is very serious, strict, loyal, and takes his job very seriously. Mr. 5 ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the "Bomb-Bomb Fruit" (ボムボムの実) which allows him to turn any part of his body into a bomb without harming himself, and it renders all explosive based attacks useless against him.

She also dislikes being ignored, especially when she is attacking. Ms. Valentine ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Kilo-Kilo Fruit (キロキロの実) which allows her to change her mass to anything between one and ten-thousand kilograms (pounds in the 4Kids dub).

Skypiea
Skypiea (スカイピア) is a land located in the sky above the Grand Line. So far, three island have been confirmed in Skypiea, which are "Angel Island", "Shandora", "Bilka" (which has been destroyed by Eneru), and "Weatheria". The people are unique in that they have small wings on their backs. The daily life of sky people revolves around the use of "Dials", which normally aren't available in the Blue Sea. As opposed to the "Berry" of the rest of the world, it uses "Extol" as currency.

Angel Island
Angel Island (エンジェル島) is the original part of Skypiea. The people of Angel Island are mostly a non-aggressive race who live peacefully. They use "Dials" for everyday use such as cooking. They greet each other by saying "Heso" (which is Japanese for bellybutton) often while putting their hand against their head and sticking two fingers up.

Gan Fall
Gan Fall (ガン・フォール), nicknamed "Sky Knight" (空の騎士), is the current "God" of Skypiea. Gan Fall is an old but noble man with a big heart who will help even a stranger if they are in danger. He thinks not for himself but for the whole of Skypiea. His approach to situations is one of a diplomatic response rather than a warriors act and was against the centuries old war with the Shandorians. Gan Fall assumed the role of "God" after Eneru was defeated. Gan Fall's weapon of choice appears to be a lance. He is voiced by Jouji Yanami in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by John Swasey for Funimation.

Pierre (ピエール) is a large, pink pet bird, who belonged to Gan Fall. Pierre is an odd, but friendly bird. He is also served as transport for Gan Fall.

In the English dub, he is voiced by Jim Johnson for Funimation.

Amazon
Amazon (アマゾン) is the elderly gatekeeper of Skypiea. She lets people in even if they can't pay her exorbitant toll, but purposely fails to tell those that don't pay about the consequences for entering the city. Amazon mostly seems to care about nothing. Her calm demeanor remained even when she found herself flooded with people fleeing to the Blue Sea in a panic resulting from Eneru destroying Skypiea. She is voiced by Keiko Yamamoto in the Japanese version. In the English dub, she is voiced by Juli Erickson for Funimation.

Pagaya
Pagaya (パガヤ) is Conis's father and a brilliant inventor from Skypiea. Pagaya has a habit of apologizing for everything, even things that he isn't even responsible for.

In the English dub, he is voiced by Grant James for Funimation.

Conis
Conis (コニス) is Pagaya's daughter and citizen of Skypiea. Conis is head strong, hopeful, and cares deeply for the well being of others. She becomes more and more courageous, speaking her mind and not being afraid of her people's "God" Eneru as they struggle to fight him. The major reason why Conis was able to do so was because of her sense of justice and morality, her heart breaking loss of her father, and the love for her people. She is voiced by Rieko Takahashi in the Japanese version. In the English dub, she is voiced by Laura Bailey for Funimation.

Suu (スー) is a "cloud fox" and pet of Conis. Conis named her Suu, because it is the only sound Suu makes. Suu can only communicate through gestures, mimics, and charades. She is voiced by Akemi Okamura in the Japanese version. In the English dub, she is voiced by Majken Bullard for Funimation.

Bilkans
Bilka (ビルカ) used to be an island in Skypiea far to the southeast from Angel Island. Eneru was born and raised on Bilka, but after eating the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, he destroyed his homeland and came to Angel Island with his followers. Through it was his original home, Eneru did not show any sign of love towards it, as he destroyed it without any hesitation.

Eneru
Eneru (エネル), is the former "God" of Skypiea. Though "God" is traditionally only the title for the island's ruler, Eneru takes it literally, forcing the population to worship and serve him. Eneru ate a logia Devil Fruit called the Rumble-Rumble Fruit (ゴロゴロの実), which gives him the ability to manipulate, generate, and transform into electricity. Additionally, he is able to use Mantra (マントラ), an ability that somehow allows one to predict a being's movement and to sense any conscious being's position within a certain range. Used in conjunction, these abilities extend his hearing over the entire country and allow him to immediately punish those who speak up against him. Eneru believes that he is a divine and immortal being, with the authority to do, take or destroy whatever he pleases and is capable of doing anything. As the result, he appears fearless, childish, arrogant and apathetic. His lifestyle is relaxed and hedonistic. Eneru's overly long earlobes reach down to his chest, similar to some depictions of Buddha, and like the god of thunder and lightning, Raijin, he wears a ring of drums, showing a tomoe on the drumhead, on his back. He is voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Wayne Grayson for 4Kids, and by J. Michael Tatum for Funimation.

Eneru is the leader of his own personal army. They consist of, aside from Eneru himself, the Skypiea Priests (神官), who are Ohm, Satori, Gedatsu, and Shura, and the fifty Enforcers (神兵), led by the Enforcer Commander Yama. The unnamed enforcers, additionally, tend to make goat-like noises, and use "Axe Dials" in battle.

Ohm
Ohm (オーム), nicknamed "Sky Breeder" (スカイブリーダー), is one of the Skypiea Priests, and runs the "Ordeal of Iron" (鉄の試練) which has a survival rate of zero percent.

Ohm is a swordsman who fights using a sword with an "Eisen Dial" inside the pommel, that makes the blade of the sword able to shapeshift. Ohm also has the ability to use "Mantra". He is voiced by Eiji Takemoto in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Scottie Ray for 4Kids, and by Troy Baker for Funimation.

Holy (ホーリー) is a huge, pale yellow dog that Ohm taught to fight and stand on two feet. Ohm often tends to ride him around while traveling and fighting.

Satori
Satori (サトリ), nicknamed Satori "of the Forest" (「森のサトリ」), is one of the Skypiea Priests, and runs the "Ordeal of Spheres" (玉の試練) which has a survival rate of ten percent. Satori is hardly ever serious. He tends to laugh a lot and toy with his enemies. However, he is very afraid of dying. In battle, Satori uses two "Impact Dials" tied around each of his hands, concealed under his gloves, which can absorb the force of an attack and release it back at the attacker at any time, consecutively. Satori also has the ability of "Mantra". He is voiced by Yasuhiro Takato in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Jimmy Zoppi for 4Kids, and by Chris Cason for Funimation.

Gedatsu
Gedatsu (ゲダツ), nicknamed "Sky Punk" (空パンク), is one of the Skypiea Priests, and runs the "Ordeal of Swamp" (沼の試練) which has a survival rate of fifty percent. Gedatsu is one of the oddest characters in the series, as he has many strange habits, none of which he is aware of. He needs to be corrected in every single instance, whereupon he will frown and cry, "So careless!" Despite his strange habits, he is still very serious and ruthless. Gedatsu uses two "Milky Dials" strapped to each of his wrists, allowing him to create dense, swamp-like clouds, and also has two Milky Dials on each of the bottom of his shoes, allowing him to fly. "Jet Dials" are also attached to his elbows, giving him very fast and powerful punches. Gedatsu also has the ability of "Mantra". He is voiced by Masaya Takatsuka in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Bob Carter for Funimation.

Shura
Shura (シュラ), nicknamed "Sky Rider" (スカイライダー), is one of the Skypiea Priests, and runs the "Ordeal of String" (紐の試練) which has a survival rate of three percent.

He is voiced by Shinichirou Ohta in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Dan Green for 4Kids, and by Kent Williams for Funimation.

Yama
Yama (ヤマ) is the Enforcer Commander of the fifty Enforcers. Yama is fanatically loyal to Eneru, going so far as to reprimand Shura, Ohm, and Gedatsu for fighting in his presence. He displays quite an amount of brutality in battle. His ruthless fighting style shows his lack of respect for the world around him, destroying the landscape around him while in battle. He has the interesting habit of saying the sound "meh" often. Despite his massive build, Yama is very acrobatic, agile, and fast. His comparatively tiny limbs are very strong as well. Yama wields a "Ten-Fold Axe" which is a sash with ten "Axe Dials" that can severely cut up an opponent. He is voiced by Hidenari Ugaki in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Andrew Chandler for Funimation.

Shandora
Shandora (シャンディア) actually used to be located on an island on the Blue Sea called "Jaya", until the Knockup Stream shot it and part of Jaya up to Skypiea. The Shandorians soon found themselves enemies of the Skypieans and entered their deadiest conflict in centuries for their homeland, a war they initially lost. Thanks to the Straw Hat Pirates, the Shandorians are now allies and friends with the native Skypieans.

Wyper
Wyper (ワイパー), nicknamed "Berserker" (戦鬼), is the leader of the Shandorian warriors and a direct descendant of "Calgara". Wyper is first shown to be an extremely violent and irrational man. He does not easily trust outsiders and is quick to fight anyone without a second thought. Despite this however, Wyper has a deep love for his people and their homeland. He also has a deep respect for his ancestor's best friend, "Montblanc Noland", to whom he feels obligated to because of Noland's deeds, friendship to Calgara, and unfortunate fate. While he means well, his determination sometimes tends to blind him, causing Wiper to become more violent and push himself beyond his physical limits. Wyper wields a bazooka which he calls the "Burn Bazooka", because it has a "Flavor Dial" and a "Flame Dial" inside, which the Flavor Dial can launch exploding gas, then the Flame Dial sets alight. Wyper also has a "Reject Dial" tied to his right palm, which is ten times stronger and more life threatening than an "Impact Dial". He is voiced by Masaki Aizawa and Reiko Kiuchi (child) in the Japanese version. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Mike Pollock for 4Kids, and by J. Paul Slavens (adult) and Leah Clark (child) for Funimation.

Kamakiri
Kamakiri (カマキリ) is one of the Shandorian warriors. Kamakiri seems to be one of Wyper's most trusted fighters, and is also good friends with Laki and Aisa, acting much kinder than the other warriors. Unlike his leader Wyper, he always retains a calm demeanor. Kamakiri's has two different weapons he uses in combat. One of Kamakiri's weapons is a spear, and the other is a "Burn Blade", which is a simple stick handle with a "Breath Dial" attached to the tip of the stick. The Dial stores flammable gas, which, when ignited, creates a flame blade. He is voiced by Keisuke in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Scott Freeman (adult) and Mary Morgan (child) for Funimation.

Laki
Laki (ラキ) is one of the Shandorian warriors, and cousin of Aisa. Laki is a brave, kind hearted Shandorian woman who likes to make others happy. According to Wyper however, she worries over smaller goals (such as Aisa's bag of Vearth) when she should be focused on the bigger goals (such as winning back their homeland so they would never have to fight for just one bag of Vearth ever again). Laki's weapon of choice is a rifle, however Laki does not use any Dials. She is voiced by Michie Tomizawa in the Japanese version. In the English dub, she is voiced by Lydia Mackay for Funimation.

Braham
Braham (ブラハム) is one of the Shandorian warriors. Braham appears as a merciless warrior, even killing an Enforcer who surrendered to him. He is very confident in his skills, as he sometimes underestimates his opponents, proclaiming his superiority, and that usually leads to his defeats. Despite his overconfidence, he is almost always serious and hardly ever changes his facial expression. In battle, Braham uses dual pistols with a "Flash Dial" installed in each gun, so the opponents can not see the bullets that are fired, so he calls them "Flash Pistols". He is voiced by Kenji Nomura in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Charles Baker (adult) and Kate Oxley (child) for Funimation.

Genbo
Genbo (ゲンボウ) is one of the Shandorian warriors. Genbo is not very talkative, and tends to take fights very seriously. He also has somewhat of a short temper, and seems to have mighty attitude. Genbo's weapon of choice is a bazooka-like cannon that fires iron cannonballs (iron does not actually exist in Skypiea, therefore he must have got his weapon from the Blue Sea somehow). Genbo does not use any Dials. He is voiced by Osamu Ryoutani in the Japanese version. In the English dub, he is voiced by Brad Jackson (adult) and Adrian Cook (child) for Funimation.

Aisa
Aisa (アイサ) is a small, brave, Shandorian girl, and cousin of Laki, but she is not one of the Shandorian warriors. Aisa is a bit of a tomboy. She hates it when people die and will try anything to stop it, even rushing into danger without any plans for what to do. She wants to be a strong fighter like everyone else but is afraid of Wyper, though she warms up to him eventually. Even though Aisa does not have any fighting skills, she does possess the "Mantra" ability. She is voiced by Masami Suzuki in the Japanese version. In the English dub, she is voiced by Cherami Leigh for Funimation.

The Arlong Pirates believe they are above humans. The name of their ship is "Shark Superb" (シャーク・スパーブ号)

Arlong
Captain Arlong (アーロン), nicknamed "Saw-Tooth" Arlong (ノコギリのアーロン), is a sawshark fishman and captain of the Arlong Pirates. Arlong is a racist, considering humans to be inferior to fishmen, though there are humans he considers to be exceptions. He values money very highly and is proud of the fact that he would rather die than to break a promise involving money. However, he proves willing to subvert the spirit of a promise so long as he follows its letter. Arlong is also rather easy to anger and goes berserk. Because Arlong is a fishman, he possesses amazing physical strength, and can breathe on land and underwater. His powerful shark-like jaws are capable of rending metal, stone, and flesh alike and have rapidly re-growing teeth. Arlong also uses a kiribachi as his weapon of choice. Arlong's last bounty was 20,000,000 Berries before he and his crew were captured by the marines. He is voiced by Jūrōta Kosugi in the Japanese version of the anime.

He loved to have an audience to witness his feats. Bellamy was ruthless, as he killed people over unimportant matters. Also, he seemed to laugh at other people's misfortune. Bellamy ate a paramecia Devil Fruit called the Spring-Spring Fruit (バネバネの実) that allowed him to turn his legs into springs to bounce off surfaces to gain extraordinary heights and velocity for his attacks. Bellamy was presumably killed by Don Quixote Doflamingo after Doflamingo was disgusted by Bellamy's defeat from Luffy. Bellamy's last bounty was 55,000,000 Berries before he was killed.

Sarquiss, like the rest of the crew, strongly believes in the coming of the New Era, and laughs at anyone who mentions their dreams. He also falsely believes that a bounty serves as a rating of a person's fighting level, making him believe that he is a more powerful fighter than he truly is. He is also very stubborn.

He does this by becoming butler to Kaya, Usopp's childhood friend. He considers his crew as nothing but pawns to carry out his plans and, if he so pleases, to die for him. In general, Kuro is a genius of the highest caliber whose plans have never failed in the past. Kuro fights using a pair of gloves, equipped with very long straight, single edged blades. Wearing these, he adopted his signature habit of adjusting his constantly slipping glasses by using only the palm of his hand to avoid cutting his face. Anime News Network praised the character as being "both unspeakably cool and utterly vile". Kuro's former bounty was 16,000,000 Berries before the marines thought he was dead. He is voiced by Kōichi Hashimoto in the Japanese version of the anime. In the English dubs, he is voiced by Gary Mack for 4Kids, and by Kent Williams for Funimation.

Many characters are also featured on trading cards from the One Piece Collectible Card Game and other products ranging from calendars to bath salts.

Reception
Allen Divers of Anime News Network comments that the male character designs of the One Piece manga are "often quite varied and unique", while the female ones become "a bit repetitive". They further note that, as the characters are "defined by what they seek", there is little room "for actual development", but they also point out that the series is driven by its battles in which the main characters each take their "turn in the spotlight". Todd Douglass, Jr. of DVD talk simply states that the series' characters have a lot of charm.

In a review of The Desert Princess and the Pirates: Adventures in Alabasta, Carl Kimlinger of ANN describes the visual style of One Piece as "unconventional" with "grotesquely exaggerated expressions, simple eyes, big mouths and bigger teeth", "supremely ugly supporting characters and skinny, gangly-limbed main cast" and comments that "it's all amazingly distinctive, utterly appropriate, and surprisingly cool—in a goofy kind of way." In the same review, Kimlinger notes that "Funimation's English dub is light-years better than the 4Kids debacle", "unusually accurate, professional, and largely enjoyable, which is far, far more than can be said of the previous dub", but notes that Funimation's version of "Crocodile loses his sepulchral charisma" and that "the original's fine dance on the edge of mawkish sentimentality is disrupted often enough by less-than-stellar acting". They also state that "Colleen Clinkenbeard's Luffy is more a generic spunky kid than a personality in his own right, really coming to life only during the action scenes during which she does a fine job of being darned cool."

In another review of The Desert Princess and the Pirates: Adventures in Alabasta, Dustin Somner of Blu-ray.com comments that the Japanese and Funimation voice-acting is "fairly good, but not exceptional" and sometimes "overly zany".

In a review of the second DVD release of 4Kids Entertainment's dub, Todd Douglass, Jr. notes "the daunting cast of characters, both good and bad", which "vary from cool and collected to rampaging psychopaths" as "one of the appealing factors" of the anime. In the same review, Douglass said that "Some of the voices were pretty irritating ... with a lot of high-pitches and over exaggerated speech."

Brigitte Schönhense of Splashcomics comments that the "brilliant" ("genial") flashbacks into the characters' pasts make them so "likeable and lovable" (German: "sympathisch und liebenswert") and that they are the manga's real strength.

Mania Entertainment writer Jarred Pine comments that Oda's characters are "whacky" and that his "bizarre" character designs create "wonderful characterizations and personalities". He notes the "well illustrated" facial expressions and says that "it's the whacky characterizations and designs that makes One Piece its own".

In a review of Funimation Entertainment's second DVD release for Mania Entertainment, Bryce Coulter comments that "One Piece's bizarre character designs will keep your attention as they can be very random and often memorable. Not the prettiest, but it will definitely capture your attention."
