The One Piece manga 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 abilities. The majority of the characters are human, but the cast also includes dwarfs, giants, mermen and mermaids, fish-men, [a] sky people, and minks, [b] among many others. Many of the characters possess abilities gained by eating "Devil Fruits". The series' storyline follows the adventures of a group of pirates as they search for the mythical "One Piece" treasure.
Monkey D. Luffy is the series' main protagonist, a young pirate who wishes to succeed Gold Roger, the deceased King of the Pirates, by finding his treasure, the "One Piece". Throughout the series, Luffy gathers himself a diverse crew named the Straw Hat Pirates, including: the three-sword-wielding combatant Roronoa Zoro (sometimes referred to as Roronoa Zolo in the English manga); the thief and navigator Nami; the cowardly marksman and inventor Usopp; the amorous cook and martial artist Sanji; the anthropomorphic reindeer and doctor Tony Tony Chopper; the archaeologist Nico Robin; the cyborg shipwright Franky; the living skeleton musician Brook; and the fish-man helmsman Jimbei.

The protagonists of the One Piece series are all the members of the Straw Hat Pirates (麦わらの一味, Mugiwara no Ichimi), a crew of ten pirates captained by Monkey D. Luffy. The crew's number increases throughout the series, as Luffy recruits new members. Once Usopp joins the Straw Hat Pirates, they gain their own ship, the Going Merry, which is later destroyed and replaced by a larger and more powerful vessel, the Thousand Sunny created by their shipwright Franky.
Two years later, the Straw Hats gain a new fleet, called the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, consisting of 5,640 pirates from seven different crews; Luffy objects to the idea of being a fleet commander and organizes his new army in a way that they may act independently, but when one crew is in trouble, the others must do what they can to help them. By the end of the Wano Country Arc, the Straw Hat Pirates are recognized as an Emperor-led crew with Luffy being recognized as the leader of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet[ch. 903] and the other nine members as its Senior Officers[ch. 1058] after the defeat of Kaido and Big Mom.
Monkey D. Luffy (モンキー・D・ルフィ, Monkī Dī Rufi) is the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates and the main protagonist of the One Piece series. At age seven, he admires and tries to join the pirates of the "Red Haired" Shanks. Ridiculed and rejected, he inadvertently eats their treasure, the Paramecia-type Gum-Gum Fruit (ゴムゴムの実, Gomu Gomu no Mi), which gives him rubbery attributes. His reckless efforts ultimately lead him into grave peril causing Shanks to lose an arm while rescuing him. After this, Luffy gives up on joining Shanks, resolving instead to start a crew of his own and become King of the Pirates.[ch. 1] Displeased by Shanks spoiling his grandson, Garp takes Luffy to be raised by Curly Dadan and her mountain bandits, who he strong-arms into taking him in. During Luffy's time there, he becomes a sworn brother with Ace, Garp's other ward, and Sabo, a local runaway noble.[ch. 582–589]Ten years later and still wearing Shanks' treasured straw hat, Luffy forms and commands his own pirate crew called the Straw Hat Pirates and sets sail for the Grand Line, quickly gaining infamy as "Straw Hat" Luffy (麦わらのルフィ, Mugiwara no Rufi).[ch. 2, 7, 96, 98] Eventually, after his strength proves insufficient to save Ace from execution, he spends two years on a secluded island, learning the use of the three colors of Haki as well as his rubber ability's fourth Gear from Silvers Rayleigh, before heading to the New World.[ch. 590–602] Due to his infamy, he is one of the pirates who are known as "The Worst Generation". After the defeat of Kaido and Big Mom, he is subsequently named one of the newest members of the Four Emperors. Luffy is also capable of using the advanced application for all types of Haki. During his fight with Kaido, his devil fruit power awakened, revealing its true nature as the Mythical Zoan-type, Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika.
Roronoa Zoro (ロロノア・ゾロ, Roronoa Zoro) is a swordsman who uses up to three swords simultaneously, holding one in each hand and a third in his mouth.[ch. 3, 5, 28] To fulfill a promise to Kuina, his deceased childhood friend and rival, he aims to defeat "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk and become the world's greatest swordsman.[ch. 5, 50] Traveling the seas in search of Mihawk and making a living as a bounty hunter, he becomes infamously known as "Pirate Hunter" Zoro (海賊狩りのゾロ, Kaizoku-Gari no Zoro).
Eventually, he comes into conflict with Helmeppo, the spoiled son of a navy officer. To prevent the harm of innocent civilians, Zoro allows himself to be incarcerated temporarily, while Helmeppo plots to have him killed. Zoro is saved from execution by Luffy in exchange for becoming his first crewman. At that point, Zoro makes it clear that he would turn on his captain if he ever stepped between him and his dream.[ch. 2–6] However, Zoro grows fond of his crew and after several defeats in their defense, his priorities change and he convinces Mihawk to take him on as a student.[ch. 51f., 485, 597] Zoro is capable of utilizing all three types of Haki and is capable of using the advanced application for both Haoshoku and Busoshoku Haki. He is known for his awful sense of direction and constantly gets lost when traveling.
Nami (ナミ), adopted and raised by navy seaman turned tangerine farmer Belle-Mère, in her childhood witnessed her mother being murdered by the infamous Arlong, whose pirate gang occupies their island and extracts tribute from the population. Striking a deal with him, Nami, still a child, but already an accomplished cartographer who dreams of drawing a complete map of the world, joins the pirates, hoping to buy freedom for her village eventually. Growing up as a pirate-hating pirate drawing maps for Arlong and stealing treasure from other pirates, Nami becomes an excellent burglar, pickpocket, and navigator with an exceptional ability to forecast weather.[ch. 77, 95, 130] After Arlong betrays her, and he and his gang are defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates, Nami joins them in pursuit of her dream and acquires infamy herself as "Cat Burglar" Nami (泥棒猫のナミ, Dorobō Neko no Nami).[ch. 94f., 435]
Zeus (ゼウス, Zeusu) is a cloud Homie who Big Mom created.[ch. 843] He was defeated by the Straw Hat Pirates in Whole Cake Island,[ch. 890] and after it he partnered up with Nami, residing inside Nami's Sorcery Clima-Tact.[ch. 903] Zeus is voiced by Yū Mizushima in the original Japanese version and by Kevin D. Thelwell in the Funimation dub.
Usopp (ウソップ, Usoppu) was abandoned during his early childhood by his father, Yasopp, who left to join the Red-Haired Pirates. As his mother, Bachina, falls ill, Usopp starts telling tall tales, expressing his hope that his father will return and take them out to sea. He regularly goes to the mansion at the top of the hill where he lives, to visit Kaya. Even after his mother dies, Usopp does not blame his father for leaving. Despite his cowardly disposition, he strives to become a great pirate.[ch. 25, 41] Usopp is recognizable for his long nose, a reference to the fact that he tends to lie a lot. He is a gifted inventor, painter, and sculptor.[ch. 42, 106, 190] In combat, he relies primarily on slingshots to fire various kinds of ammunition with great precision in coordination with a set of lies and other weapons giving him a unique fighting style named "The Usopp Arsenal".[ch. 332] To help the Straw Hats rescue Nico Robin, he achieves notoriety under his alter-ego "Sogeking, the King of Snipers" (狙撃の王様そげキング, Sogeki no Ō-sama Sogekingu), a hero sniper wearing a golden mask and cape. Eventually, after helping the Straw Hats liberate Dressrosa from Donquixote Doflamingo's rule, he becomes infamous as "God" Usopp (ゴッド ウソップ, Goddo Usoppu).[ch. 435]
Sanji (サンジ, Sanji), born as Vinsmoke Sanji (ヴィンスモーク・サンジ, Vinsumōku Sanji), was a prince of Germa Kingdom. He is routinely ridiculed by his genetically enhanced siblings and is locked away by his father Judge for being a disgrace. With help from his sister Reiju, he escapes and flees Germa, a floating kingdom composed of several ships, after it enters the East Blue and his father permits it. While serving as an apprentice cook on a passenger ship, nine-year-old Sanji stands up to a boarding party of pirates led by the infamous "Red Foot" Zeff. During the encounter, Sanji is swept into the sea by a massive wave. Zeff jumps in after him because of their common dream of finding the All Blue (オールブルー, Ōru Burū), a legendary area where the East, West, North, and South Blue seas meet, containing every kind of fish in the world. While castaways together, the pirate saves Sanji's life yet again by giving him all of their food. After their eventual rescue, Sanji stays with Zeff for several years and helps him build a floating restaurant, the Baratie (バラティエ). Zeff in turn makes him a first-rate cook and teaches him his kick-based fighting style.[ch. 56–59] Mirroring Zeff, Sanji will never refuse a starving person a meal, and he uses only his legs when fighting to protect the hands he needs for cooking.[ch. 48, 370] He has a weakness for women and makes it a principle never to harm one, even if it means his death.[ch. 403]
Eventually, he becomes infamous as "Black Leg" Sanji (黒脚のサンジ, Kuro Ashi no Sanji).[ch. 435] While training for a period of two years in Emporio Ivankov's Kamabakka Queendom (カマバッカ王国, Kamabakka Ōkoku), he develops the Sky Walk (空中歩行, Sukai Wōku), a variant of the Six Powers (六式, Rokushiki) technique Moonwalk (月歩, Geppo), which allows him to essentially run through air.[ch. 635] Sanji receives his own Raid Suit from his family that grants him the ability to turn invisible[ch. 903], though he later destroys it out of fear of losing his humanity.[ch. 1031]
Sanji's standard appearance is wearing a well-fitting black suit with a skinny black tie. His hair always covers one of his eyes and he is usually smoking a cigarette.
Tony Tony Chopper (トニートニー・チョッパー, Tonī Tonī Choppā) is an anthropomorphic reindeer and doctor. The power of the Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit (ヒトヒトの実, Hito Hito no Mi) provides him with the ability to transform into a full-sized reindeer or a reindeer-human hybrid.[ch. 140] A self-developed drug he calls Rumble Ball (ランブル・ボール, Ranburu Bōru) enables him to perform even more transformations for three minutes.[ch. 149] With help from Caesar Clown, Chopper can last in his transformations for about 30 minutes.[ch. 1014] Rejected by his herd because of his blue nose and eating the Devil Fruit, Chopper is rescued by Drum Island's quack doctor Doctor Hiriluk. While developing a potion to create cherry blossoms when in contact with snow, Chopper is heartbroken when Hiriluk falls ill with a deadly disease. After Hiriluk's death, Doctor Kureha takes him in as his mentor. After the Straw Hats arrive at Drum Island and take Chopper with them, Kureha uses Hiriluk's potion to turn the snowy sky into cherry blossoms, fulfilling Hiriluk's life mission. When complimented, Chopper acts flustered and sometimes yells at the person who complimented him to stop trying to make him happy.[ch. 140] A running gag within the series is when other characters mistake him as a Tanuki, and he angrily corrects them, pointing out that he is a Tonakai (Japanese for "Reindeer").
When creating Chopper, Oda wanted a mascot who is both cute and feeble. [23] 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. [24] With Chopper's backstory, Oda wanted to illustrate that one need not be blood-related to be considered family. [25]
Nico Robin (ニコ・ロビン, Niko Robin) raised in Ohara (オハラ), home of the world's oldest and largest library. Robin becomes an archaeologist at the age of eight.[ch. 218,391f.] At some point she gains the power of the Paramecia-type Flower-Flower Fruit (ハナハナの実, Hana Hana no Mi), which allows her to have temporary copies of parts of her body, including her eyes and ears, which spring up on surfaces near her.[ch. 170] [26] Behind her teachers' backs, she acquires from them the outlawed knowledge of how to translate the ancient stones called Poneglyphs (歴史の本文, Pōnegurifu; alt. Poneglyphs), which are scattered around the world. She comes to share their goal of finding the elusive Real Ponegliff (真の歴史の本文, Rio Pōnegurifu), which is said to tell the world's lost history referred to as the 100-Year Void (空白の100年, Kūhaku no Hyaku-nen; Void Century).[ch. 218] However, the World Government finds out about these efforts and sends a battlefleet to stop them. Only Robin escapes the devastating attack that claims the lives of the island's entire population, including that of her mother.[ch. 218, 395] Called "Devil Child" (悪魔の子, Akuma no Ko), traumatized, and with a bounty on her head, Robin lives a life on the run, unable to trust anyone.[ch. 218] To survive, she cooperates with various pirates and other outlaws. She eventually joins Sir Crocodile's Baroque Works group, using the codename "Ms. All-Sunday" (ミス・オールサンデー, Misu Ōrusandē)[ch. 398] and becomes their vice-president.[ch. 218] After Baroque Works falls apart, with nowhere else to go, she tags along with the Straw Hat Pirates [ch. 218] and grows so fond of them that she gives herself up to the Government to save them. After they discover her real reason for leaving, the Straw Hat Pirates declare open war against the Government to get her back. She realizes that she has finally found people who will never betray her and joins the crew.[ch. 398] Two years later, Robin further hones her Devil Fruit powers to the point she can create a full-bodied duplicate of herself.
Franky (フランキー, Furankī), born as Cutty Flam (カティ・フラム, Kati Furamu), is the son of pirate parents who abandoned him at age nine. Cutty Flam was taken in as an apprentice by shipwright Tom, who built Pirate King Gol D Roger's ship, the Oro Jackson, and also secretly holds the plans for a devastating ancient weapon; he eventually adopts the nickname Franky.[ch. 344, 354, 427] Franky's recklessness eventually provides an opportunity for World Government agents seeking these plans.[ch. 356] Attempting to rescue his master, Franky suffers severe injuries and only survives by rebuilding parts of his body using pieces of scrap metal, turning himself into a cola-powered cyborg with strength.[ch. 336, 339, 352, 357f.] After gaining notoriety as "Cyborg" Franky (サイボーグ フランキー, Saibōgu Furankī), and to fulfill his dream of sailing a ship he built around the world, he constructs the Thousand Sunny, a brigantine-rigged sloop-of-war, for the Straw Hat Pirates and joins the crew.[ch. 435–437]
Brook (ブルック, Burukku) was already a pirate before the time of Roger. Brook first enters the Grand Line as a member of the music-themed Rumbar Pirates. Leaving his pet, the infant whale Laboon, at Reverse Mountain, he promises to return after sailing around the world.[ch. 487] After losing his captain "Calico" Yorki (キャラコのヨーキ, Kyarako no Yōki), Brook took over the crew as the new captain. Some time later, he is annihilated, but the power of the Paramecia-type Revive-Revive Fruit (ヨミヨミの実, Yomi Yomi no Mi) allows him to resurrect as a skeleton.[ch. 443] [27] Fifty years later, Brook's goal is still to fulfill his late crew's promise, and to that end he joins the Straw Hat Pirates.[ch. 459] He is an excellent musician, who says that he can play any instrument, although he is usually seen playing the violin.[ch. 486] Brook can even influence people with his music to the point of making them fall asleep.[ch. 454] While separated from the other Straw Hats, and incognito as "Soul King" Brook, he gains world fame, filling concert halls with fans.[ch. 600] He is also a skilled fencer who uses a shikomizue (a Japanese cane sword) in battle.[ch. 454] His reduced weight allows him to jump extraordinarily high and to run across water.[ch. 443, 493] Eventually, Brook learns how to use his Devil Fruit ability to leave his skeleton body and explore his surroundings as a disembodied soul.[ch. 629]
The idea of a skeleton musician was first conceived by Oda in 2000, about the time of Laboon's introduction and more than half a decade before the first appearance of Brook. [28]
Jimbei (ジンベエ, Jinbē), known by the epithet of "First Son of the Sea" Jinbe (侠のジンベエ, Kaikyō no Jinbē; lit. "Knight of the Sea" Jinbe), is a yakuza-esque whale shark-type fish-man.[ch. 528] A master of Fish-Man Karate (魚人空手, Gyojin Karate) and Fish-Man Jujutsu (魚人柔術, Gyojin Jūjutsu), he is capable of manipulating water as if it were a tangible cloth.[ch. 546] Jimbei can communicate with fish, an ability more usually associated with merfolk, allowing him to enlist the help of whale sharks.[ch. 547–549] After growing up in a rough part of Fish-Man Island, Jimbei first joins the island's royal army and later the Sun Pirates; he becomes captain following the death of Fisher Tiger.[ch. 624] In exchange for the World Government granting him Warlord-status and amnesty to the Sun Pirates, Jimbei disbands the crew.[ch. 69] He resigns from the position to side against the Government during its war with the Whitebeard Pirates, the protectors of Fish-Man Island, and is subsequently imprisoned in Impel Down.[ch. 557] He is then freed by Luffy during his mission to rescue Ace.
Two years later, Jimbei enlists the help of the Straw Hat Pirates to prevent the New Fish-Man Pirates' coup d'état against Fish-Man Island's royal family. He initially turns down an invitation from Luffy to join his crew, having already aligned with the Big Mom Pirates after the death of Whitebeard.[ch. 649] However, after cutting ties with Big Mom, he joins the Straw Hat Pirates as the crew's helmsman.[ch. 863][ch. 976]

Originally known as the "Eleven Supernovas" (11人の超新星, Jūichinin no Chōshinsei), it is a group of rookie pirates whose bounties exceed over 100,000,000 berries, having reached the Sabaody Archipelago simultaneously. The group's members are: Monkey D. Luffy and his crewmate Roronoa Zoro; Trafalgar Law; Capone Bege; X. Drake; Jewelry Bonney; Basil Hawkins; Eustass Kid and his crewmate Killer; Scratchmen Apoo; and Urouge.[ch. 498] Regarded as "problem children", these pirates, along with Blackbeard, eventually became known as the "Worst Generation" (最悪の世代, Saiaku no Sedai) by the World Government as they gained more notoriety for their crimes and, sometimes, their willingness to challenge the status quo.[ch. 664] [33]
Basil Hawkins (バジル・ホーキンス, Bajiru Hōkinsu), nicknamed "Magician" (魔術師 Majutsushi), is the captain of the Hawkins Pirates. He ate the Straw-Straw Fruit (ワラワラの実, Wara Wara no Mi), a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to create and manipulate straw. He can cover himself in straw and make scarecrow-like straw avatars to aid his offense. [27] He also has a habit of reading tarot cards to find out what is going to happen and the percentage probability that what he predicts will happen.
After the two year timeskip, he tried to form an alliance with Scratchmen Apoo and Eustass Kid. After Kaido appeared in front of them, he ended up joining the Animal Kingdom Pirates as Kaido's subordinate, betraying Kid along with Apoo, and becoming one of the crew's Shinuchi.
Capone "Gang" Bege (カポネ・“ギャング”・ベッジ, Kapone "Gyangu" Bejji) is a mafia don-turned-pirate. He has the power of the Castle-Castle Fruit (シロシロの実, Shiro Shiro no Mi), a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to create and maintain a dimensional fortress inside his body, being able to put people inside after being reduced when approaching the entrances of his body, or transforming into a great castle that serves as a fortress.[ch. 812]
During the two year time skip, Bege became one of the Big Mom Pirates' combatants until the moment when he formed an alliance with Luffy and Caesar Clown to finish off Big Mom. Bege is married to Big Mom's 22nd daughter Charlotte Chiffon (シャーロット・シフォンShārotto Shifon) and they are both the parents of Capone Pez (カポネ・ペッツ, Kapone Pettsu).
Capone Bege is voiced by Naoki Tatsuta in the original Japanese version and by Kyle Hebert in the Funimation dub.
The Fire Tank Pirates (ファイアタンク海賊団, Faia Tanku Kaizokudan) are Capone Bege's pirate crew.
Eustass "Captain" Kid (ユースタス・キャプテン・キッド, Yūsutasu "Kyaputen" Kiddo) is the captain of the Kid Pirates. Among his crew is his childhood friend Killer. Kid ate the Magnet-Magnet Fruit (ジキジキの実, Jiki Jiki no Mi), a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to attract and control metal objects with magnetism.[vol. 99:SBS] He is also capable of utilizing all three types of Haki. During the time skip, he lost his arm after an encounter with Shanks, depending on a metal pieces arm created by his ability. After trying to form an alliance with Scratchmen Apoo and Basil Hawkins, he ended up being betrayed by them and captured by Kaido, having to later ally himself with Luffy and Law in their plan to defeat him. After the events at Wano, Kid's whereabouts are currently unknown after another failed attempt to assault Shanks.
Eustass Kid is voiced by Daisuke Namikawa in the original Japanese version and by Justin Cook in the Funimation dub.
Killer (キラー, Kirā), nicknamed "Murder Machine" (殺戮武人, Satsuriku Bujin; lit. "Massacre Soldier") is the combatant of the Kid Pirates and Eustass Kid's childhood friend. He usually fights using two blades, and stands out for wearing a mask on his face.
After he and Kid were captured by Kaido, Killer was forced to eat a dud SMILE fruit, leaving him permanently smiling. In Wano, he ended up working for Kaido's ally Kurozumi Orochi as a street assassin known as Kamazo the Manslayer (人斬り鎌ぞう, Hito Kiri Kamazō). To get revenge on Kaido, he and the Kid Pirates ended up joining Luffy and Law's alliance.
Killer is voiced by Kenji Hamada in the original Japanese version and by Leo Fabian in the Funimation dub.
Jewelry Bonney (ジュエリー・ボニー, Juerī Bonī) is one of twelve pirates collectively known as the Worst Generation and the only female of the group. She is nicknamed "Glutton" (大喰らい, Ō-Gurai; lit. "Big Eater") because of her gigantic appetite which, however, does not affect her sinuous figure.[ch. 498] She has eaten the Age-Age Fruit that allows her to change her own age (which she uses to disguise herself) as well as others, making her opponents either too young or too old to fight her; despite her appearance, she is a 12-year old child. She is the captain of the Bonney Pirates, mostly consisting of fishermen acquainted with her.[ch. 499] Born to Revolutionary Ginny and a World Noble, she was raised by Bartholomew Kuma from childhood, making her princess of the Sorbet Kingdom during Kuma's reign.[ch. 1100]
After the Paramount War, she and her crew were defeated and captured by the Blackbeard Pirates, and she was subsequently arrested by the Navy fleet led by Sakazuki. Somehow, she managed to escape, showing herself wandering the streets incognito after the two year timeskip. During the World Meeting, she infiltrated Marijoa to rescue Bartholomew Kuma, eventually catching up to the Straw Hats at Egghead for similar matters.
Jewelry Bonney is voiced by Reiko Kiuchi and later by Reiko Takagi in the original Japanese version. In the Funimation dub, she is voiced by Laura Wetsel.
Scratchmen Apoo (スクラッチメン・アプー, Sukuratchimen Apū), also known as "Roar of the Sea" (海鳴り, Umi Nari), is the captain of the On-Air Pirates (オンエア海賊団, On Ea Kaizokudan), and a member of the longarm tribe. He has the power of the Tone-Tone Fruit (オトオトの実, Oto Oto no Mi), a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that gives him the ability to transform the parts of his body into various instruments and generate music and great vibrations with them, however, sound does not affect people if they do not hear it.
After the two year timeskip, he tried to form an alliance with Basil Hawkins and Eustass Kid. However, he was affiliated with Kaido to ambush them with Apoo being actually a subordinate of the Animal Kingdom Pirates as their informant, ending up with Hawkins joining Kaido and Apoo, and Kid being captured.
Scratchmen Apoo is voiced by Mitsuaki Madono in the original Japanese version. In the Funimation dub, he is voiced by Brad Venable in episodes 392-629 and One Piece: Stampede and by Brent Mukai starting in Episode 736.
The "Surgeon of Death" (死の外科医, Shi no Gekai), Trafalgar D. Water Law (トラファルガー・D・ワーテル・ロー, Torafarugā Dī Wāteru Rō), originates from the North Blue.[ch. 498, 508, 578, 763] Having eaten the Paramecia-type Op-Op Fruit (オペオペの実, Ope Ope no Mi), Law can, after generating a blue spherical area around himself, cut and teleport objects as well as perform body swaps within said blue area.[ch. 661] [27] He is the captain of the Heart Pirates. Originally from the White Town, Flevance, he escaped with White Lead Disease and became a member of the Donquixote Pirates. There he met Donquixote Rosinante, the brother of Doflamingo, and together they went on an adventure to find a cure for Law. Ultimately they found the Devil Fruit, but before they escaped, Rosinante was killed by Doflamingo, leaving Law to seek out revenge. Law makes a name for himself and following the Paramount War, Law joins the Seven Warlords of the Sea.[ch. 659, 673] Though he enters into an alliance with Luffy and the Straw Hats to take down Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, Law is actually hunting down Donquixote Doflamingo. [34] Law's whereabouts are unknown after a devastating defeat by the Blackbeard Pirates, though he survived by Bepo's interference.
Trafalgar Law is voiced by Hiroshi Kamiya in the original Japanese version [35] and by Matthew Mercer in the Funimation dub.
The Heart Pirates (ハートの海賊団, Hāto no Kaizokudan), consisting of twenty-one members, is the pirate crew led by Trafalgar Law.
Urouge (ウルージ, Urūji), nicknamed the "Mad Monk" (怪僧, Kaisō), is the high priest of the Mad Monk Pirates.[ch. 498] He is originally from some Sky Island. Urouge ate a currently unnamed Devil Fruit that allows him to increase his muscle mass, expanding his muscles and enlarged body size.[ch. 508]
Urougue is voiced by Taiten Kusunoki in the original Japanese version and by Major Attaway in the Funimation dub.
"Red Flag" (赤旗, Akahata)X. Drake (・ドレーク, Diesu Dorēku; pronounced as "Diez Drake") is the captain of the Drake Pirates. He has the power of the Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Model: Allosaurus (リュウリュウの実 モデル アロサウルス, Ryū Ryū no Mi Moderu Arosaurusu), a Zoan-type Devil Fruit that gives him the ability to transform into an Allosaurus or an Allosaurus-human hybrid.[ch. 929] He is a former Navy rear admiral who became a pirate, but secretly continued to work for the Navy as captain of the "SWORD" division.[ch. 956] Under this identity, Drake managed to join the Animal Kingdom Pirates as Kaido's subordinate, becoming one of their Shinuchi as part of the Tobi Roppo.[ch. 929] Drake is ousted once his treachery is uncovered and he joins Luffy's alliance to take down Kaido.[ch. 990]
X. Drake is voiced by Eiji Takemoto in the original Japanese version and by D. C. Douglas in the Funimation dub.

The most powerful pirates in the New World are referred to as the Four Emperors (四皇, Yonkō). Initially the group consists of Shanks, Whitebeard, Kaido, and Big Mom, forming a precarious balance of power with The Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Navy Headquarters that keeps the world at peace until Blackbeard's capture of Ace. This leads to a war between the Whitebeard Pirates and the World Government, and results in Whitebeard's death.[ch. 432, 483, 576, 581] Two years later, Blackbeard is considered to have assumed Whitebeard's position.[ch. 650] Following the events of the Onigashima war, where Big Mom and Kaido were defeated, Monkey D. Luffy and Buggy were considered the new members to replace them. [36]

The Animal Kingdom Pirates (百獣海賊団, Hyakujū Kaizokudan; lit. Beasts Pirates) are the crew led by Kaido, one of the Four Emperors. Most members possess powers of the SMILE Devil Fruits created by Caesar Clown, being able to obtain the abilities of a specific animal, but having only partially a part of the animal.
Kaido (カイドウ, Kaidō), also known as "Kaido, The King of the Beasts" (百獣のカイドウ, Hyakujū no Kaidō; lit. "Kaido of the Beasts"), is the 23 ft. Supreme Commander (総督, Sōtoku; Governor-General) of the Animal Kingdom Pirates, a former member of the Four Emperors, and also a former member of the Rocks Pirates as an apprentince. Kaido consumed the Fish-Fish Fruit: Model Azure Dragon which enables him to transform into an Azure Dragon or an Azure Dragon-human hybrid. Kaido's a believer in might makes right and has subjugated several pirates by breaking their wills. He's rather unstable and prone to changing his mind as he both wants a death as glorious as Whitebeard, but also wants a worthy enemy as he has spent a long time without any opponent that matched his power, along with often shifting from open cruelty and mocking to respect towards his adversaries. Kaido was on the verge of being executed several times and has a fondness for attempting suicide as a hobby, but he always ends up unscathed due to his great resilience, being known in the world as "The Strongest Creature" (最強の生物, Saikyō no Seibutsu). At one point, Kaido and King were held on Punk Hazard. Previously, he faced Kozuki Oden, who was the only person capable of deeply injuring him, leaving Kaido with a massive and permanent scar on his chest after nearly killing him. He was allied for years with Kurozumi Orochi to rule the Wano Country together upon disposing of Kozuki Oden, until Kaido betrayed him and announced his daughter Yamato would be the country's new shogun, which she vehemently opposed. Kaido had the highest active bounty of any current pirate, a bounty of 4,611,100,000. [37] Kaido is also capable of using the advanced application for all types of Haki. After a long grueling fight with Luffy and his allies, Kaido was defeated by an awakened Luffy and his allies, whom he saw as the next coming of Joy Boy, falling into a volcano with Big Mom prior to its eruption. It is unknown if they survived or not.
Kaido is voiced by Tesshō Genda in the original Japanese version and by David Sobolov in the Funimation dub.
The three men who act as Kaido's right hand are the Lead Performers (大看板, Ōkanban; All-Stars), the crew's executive officers, also known as the Disasters/Calamities.
The Tobi Roppo (飛び六胞, Tobi Roppō) are the six elite Shinuchi and the crew's first grade officers who serve directly under the Lead Performers. Like the Lead Performers, the members can transform into ancient creatures through their Ancient Zoan Devil Fruits.
The Shinuchi (真打ち, Shin'uchi) are the second-grade officers of the Animal Kingdom Pirates, with most of them being elite Gifters. They are in charge of the lower-ranking Gifters, Pleasures, and Waiters.
Known Shinuchi include:
The Gifters (与えられた者達, Gifutāzu) are the elite soldiers of the Animal Kingdom Pirates.
Known Gifters include:
The Armored Division (装甲部隊, Sōkō Butai) is a group of Shinuchis and Gifters who work for Sasaki and ate SMILE Fruits that are based on animals who are hard-skinned animals or hard-shelled animals. Many of its members defect after being tamed by Kurozumi Tama's Devil Fruit ability.
The Marys (メアリーズ, Mearīzu) are the surveillance crew of the Animal Kingdom Pirates. They consist of humans and cyborg animals who wear paper masks and transmit their information to Kaido.
The Numbers (ナンバーズ, Nanbāzu) are a group of artificial animalistic giants who were created by Punk Hazard and serve the Animal Kingdom Pirates. They are also known to be messy drinkers which annoys Queen.
The Pleasures (笑う者達, Purejāzu) are mid-level foot soldiers who ate dud SMILE Fruits and can only feel joy. Many of them defects after Tony Tony Chopper saves them from the Ice Oni virus that Queen created.
The Waiters (待つ者達, Weitāzu) are low-level foot soldiers who lack SMILE powers. Many of them defect after Tony Tony Chopper saves them from the Ice Oni virus that Queen created.
There are also some ninjas and samurai who serve the Animal Kingdom Pirates following the apparent death of Kurozumi Orochi. The ninjas made up a group called the Orochi Oniwabanshu when they worked for Orochi, while the samurai made up a group called the Mimawarigumi, Wano's samurai police force.
Other members of the crew include:

The Blackbeard Pirates (黒ひげ海賊団, Kurohige Kaizokudan) are a powerful pirate crew led by Blackbeard. While originally having five members, the Blackbeard Pirates' membership was later expanded with a number of prisoners from Impel Down and Aokiji himself.
Marshall D. Teach (マーシャル・D・ティーチ, Māsharu Dī Tīchi), better known as Blackbeard (黒ひげ, Kurohige), is the captain, later commodore (admiral in the Japanese version), of the Blackbeard Pirates and the son of Rocks D. Xebec. As a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, he killed his crewmate Thatch to get hold of the Devil Fruit he has sought for several decades, the Dark-Dark Fruit (ヤミヤミの実, Yami Yami no Mi). It grants him the ability to create and control black holes, which are represented as flowing darkness, as well as the ability to disable the Devil Fruit powers of others, as long as he is touching the person.[ch. 440]
For betraying Whitebeard's crew and the murder of his crewmate, he is pursued by Ace who eventually confronts him.[ch. 159, 440f.] After defeating Ace and turning him in to the World Government, he is appointed Crocodile's replacement as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, a position he promptly abuses to expand his crew with prisoners from Impel Down and resigns once he is finished.
After killing Whitebeard with the help of his new crew, Blackbeard somehow adds his former captain's Devil Fruit ability to his own and manages to take Whitebeard's place as one of the Four Emperors.[ch. 486, 576f., 650]
The character is based on and named after the historical pirate Edward "Blackbeard" Teach.[ch. 474] In the Japanese anime television series, his voice actor is Akio Ōtsuka. [38] In its Funimation English adaptation, his voice was supplied by Cole Brown until his death in November 2016, being replaced by Chris Rager.
The Ten Titanic Captains (10人の巨漢船長, Jū-nin no Kyokan Senchō) are the top officers of the Blackbeard Pirates who are second only to Blackbeard by command and are listed in order of who commands each ship in order of appearance.

The Big Mom Pirates (ビッグ・マム海賊団, Biggu Mamu Kaizokudan) are the crew led by the member of the Four Emperors, Charlotte Linlin. Each of its members are named after foods and are themed after different fairy tales. Some of them are minsters of different things at the different islands of Totto Land.
The Sun Pirates and the Firetank Pirates are former subordinates of the crew.
Charlotte Linlin (シャーロット・リンリン, Shārotto Rinrin), better known as Big Mom (ビッグ・マム, Biggu Mamu), is the 28 ft. captain of the Big Mom Pirates, the matriarch of the large Charlotte Family (シャーロット家, Shārotto-ke) and the queen of Totto Land, where she rules with her 46 sons and 39 daughters.
In her childhood, she was abandoned by her parents for being too big and was raised by Mother Carmel (マザー・カルメル, Mazā Karumeru), a nun who inspired her to create a kingdom and a family in which all the races of the world live together. At some point, Big Mom earned the ire of the giants after her eating disorder for semla during a fast before the Winter Solstice led to her rampage throughout Elbaph, which injured many giants. She has repeatedly tried to reconcile with the giants, but to no avail. It is because of this that she has been unable to get some giants to live in her established archipelago Totto Land where all races would co-exist with each other. Big Mom even contacted Caesar Clown to make her some artificial giants.
Big Mom's children include twenty-two single children, eleven sets of twins, six sets of triplets, two sets of quadruplets, one set of quintuplets, and one set of decuplets. None of her children are safe from her wrath. Her daughter Charlotte Praline is a member of the Sun Pirates, while Charlotte Chiffon is a member of the Firetank Pirates.
Big Mom is also the only female member of the Four Emperors, and a former member of the Rocks Pirates. She currently has the second-highest bounty of any pirate after Kaido, with a bounty of 4,388,000,000. [37]
Big Mom possesses the power of the Soul-Soul Fruit, which previously belonged to Carmel, with which she can give life to objects or make animals act like humans by giving them a fragment of a person's soul transforming them into Homies. [26] Big Mom is capable of utilizing all three types of Haki and is capable of using the advanced application for both and Haoshoku and Busoshoku Haki.
During the fight in Wano Country, Big Mom was defeated by Eustace Kid and Trafalgar D. Law and fell into a volcano. It is unknown if she survived or not.
Big Mom is Toshiko Fujita in Episode 571 of the original Japanese version and by Mami Koyama in later episodes starting in Episode 786 of the original Japanese version. In the Funimation dub, she is voiced by Pam Dougherty.
The Sweet Generals (スイート将星, Suīto Shōsei; Sweet Commanders) are the highest-ranking officers of the Big Mom Pirates. They were originally 4 Sweet Generals, but after one of them was defeated in past and demoted, they are known as the Sweet 3 Generals (スイート3将星, Suīto San Shōsei; Three Sweet Commanders).
Officer positions are filled by the majority of Linlin's sons and daughters.
The crew Combatants include:
Big Mom can create Homies with her Devil Fruit by infusing objects with soul fragments. The Vivre Card created by Big Mom can be used to control the Homies.
The three objects close to her who have a fragment of her own soul are:
Big Mom later created two more Homies with a fragment of her own soul who were loyal to her:
The following are other Homies created by Big Mom:
The following are the rest of the members of the Big Mom Pirates:

Buggy's Band of Pirates (バギー海賊団, Bagī Kaizokudan) is a circus-themed group of pirates led by Buggy the Clown, one of the Seven Warlords after the 2-year timeskip. Following Buggy's escape from Impel Down, the Buggy Pirates are joined by some of his fellow escapees.[ch. 593] With the collapse of the Warlords system, all former Warlords become wanted once again, but when the Marine attack on Buggy commences, by pure coincidence, Sir Crocodile and Dracule Mihawk arrive, making the Marines and Buggy's crew think the two other ex-Warlords are in Buggy's command. Crocodile and Mihawk ultimately agree to let Buggy take the public face of their new organization, Cross Guild (クロス・ギルド, Kurosu Girudo), as its president and figurehead while the other two are the actual heads. Cross Guild has quickly become so powerful, they now offer their own bounties against the Marines.[ch. 1056, 1058] [41] [42]
Buggy (バギー, Bagī) is a clown-themed pirate with a preference for fighting with knives, a love of cannons, and a prominent red nose. While a junior member of the Roger Pirates, he gets hold of a devil fruit and a treasure map, intending to sell the fruit and search for the treasure, but Shanks accidentally causes him to swallow the fruit and drop the map into the sea, earning Buggy's resentment.[ch. 19, 434] Having consumed the Paramecia-type Chop-Chop Fruit (バラバラの実, Bara Bara no Mi), Buggy can separate his body into levitating parts and control them independently as long as they remain close, and at least one of his feet is on the ground. This ability also makes him immune to cutting attacks which will only separate him into parts.[ch. 526f.] [27] Following the Roger Pirates' dissolution, Buggy becomes captain of the Buggy Pirates and achieves limited notoriety as "Buggy the Clown" (道化のバギー, Dōke no Bagī).[ch. 9] Eventually his involvement in the first mass breakout of Impel Down, and the Paramount War, earns him a sizable following of escapees and worldwide infamy as "The Genius Jester" (千両道化, Senryō Dōke), and a seat among the Seven Warlords of the Sea.[ch. 549, 700]
In the anime series, his voice actor is Shigeru Chiba. [1] In the 4Kids dub, he is voiced by David Wills. [43] In the Funimation dub, his voice is supplied by Mike McFarland. [3]
Oda said that Buggy is his favorite antagonist, because of all of them he is the easiest to draw. [44] Buggy has received much praise and criticism. Carl Kimlinger of Anime News Network said that Luffy's fight with Buggy "sets the series' precedent for battles that are simultaneously tense and hilarious". [45] Jacob Hope Chapman of the same site said that seeing Buggy during the Jaya Arc was "entertaining". [46] Bryce Coulter of Mania Entertainment praised Chibi Buggy's Adventure as one of the best arcs, and Buggy for his "slap-stick humour" and "Voltron-esque combining sequence". [47] He was "disappointed" that Buggy, Smoker, and the Strawhats did not have a conflict at sea. [48] On Luffy and Buggy's alliance in Impel Down, Chris Beveridge said, "the two do make an amusing pairing as their flight through the first level goes on". He went on to say, "he never really cared for Buggy", but the Impel Down arc turned him into an "engaging character". [49] He said that he believes that Buggy is being set up as a regular character because he was "afraid he might lose him". [50] Pedro Cortes of Japanator said, "Buggy is always good for a laugh, so his bit was a welcomed respite from the oppressive marines beating down Luffy and the Whitebeard pirates." [51]

"Sir" Crocodile (サー・クロコダイル, Sā Kurokodairu) is a pirate with the ability of the Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit (スナスナの実, Suna Suna no Mi), allowing him to generate and control sand,[ch. 170] absorb moisture with his right hand,[ch. 201] and, as long as he is not wet, turn his body into sand.[ch. 199] He wears a large golden alloy hook in place of a left hand,[ch. 160] which contains a potent poison and a dagger underneath.[ch. 204] Initially a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea,[ch. 113] his title is revoked by Tashigi when it is discovered that he, under the code name of "Mr. 0" (ミスター・ゼロ, Misutā Zero),[ch. 127, 211] head the criminal organization known as Baroque Works as president, attempted a coup of Alabasta. He was subsequently arrested after he was defeated by Luffy.[ch. 113]
Sometime after the mass-prison break at Impel Down, Crocodile later found the Cross Guild along with Mihawk and becomes one of its chief officers.[ch. 1058]
In the original Japanese series, he is voiced by Ryūzaburō Ōtomo. [52] In the 4Kids adaptation, Crocodile is voiced by David Brimmer. [53] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by John Swasey. [40] In the live-action series, Crocodile is portrayed by Joe Manganiello. [54]
Dracule Mihawk (ジュラキュール・ミホーク, Jurakyūru Mihōku), also called "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk (鷹の目のミホーク, Taka no Me no Mihōku), is a pirate who is one of the former Seven Warlords of the Sea and the strongest swordsman in the One Piece universe.[ch. 50, 52, 69] His primary weapon is a Grosse Messer that Mihawk calls Yoru. He also often carries around a dagger that he conceals in a crucifix pendant. His personal ship is called the Hitsugibune, an all-black boat that resembles a coffin and has candles lit on the edges that burn with green fire.[ch. 50, ?] The Hitsugibune's mast is notable for the fact that it is shaped like Yoru.
Physically, in the manga, anime, and live action, Mihawk is a tall man with pale skin and black hair (generally has distinctive side burns and a beard), a muscular build, and a generally deadpan expression. His most distinctive physical trait are his yellow-and-black eyes, which are the source of his nickname "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk. Mihawk commonly wears a white shirt and a black coat and hat with red as a secondary coloring.
Mihawk is a loner and solitary in his nature. He has a deadpan and reserved demeanor that fully matches his general expression. Unlike many pirates in the world of One Piece, Mihawk does not have a crew and usually travels and lives alone. Mihawk is very self-confident in his abilities and his status as the world's greatest swordsman, but he is always eager to test his abilities against new opponents and has an equal level of appreciation for the skills and work ethics of others for his own and is not arrogant. For example, Mihawk is one of the few people to actually respect Luffy's abilities and ambitions and sees him as a capable and brave warrior instead of a foolhardy boy/young man many of Luffy's enemies mistakenly believe him to be.
Due to his dream of becoming the world's greatest swordsman, Zoro aims to one day defeat Mihawk in a duel. Zoro first challenged Mihawk to a duel to the death when the latter was hunting the pirate captain Don Krieg at Baratie and lost, though Mihawk deemed that despite not being a worthy opponent for him at that point, Zoro would be able to grow into a worthy competitor given the time and allowed him to live. Mihawk even trained Zoro during the series' two year time jump due to a combination of reasons: he was humored by the concept of training a man who sought to one day kill him and take his title and he respected Zoro's dedication to his craft and his skill and for putting aside his pride so that he could help Luffy and his friends by continuing to hone his skills as a combatant. After the Warlord system is abolished Mihawk created the Cross Guild with Crocodile which he still operates at the present time in the show.[ch. 1058]
Takeshi Aono provided his voice in the anime until 2010, [9] after which he was replaced by Hirohiko Kakegawa. [55] In the 4Kids English adaptation, he is voiced by Wayne Grayson. [56] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by John Gremillion. [3]
Dracule Mihawk is portrayed by Steven John Ward as an adult and by Theo Le Ray during his younger days in the live-action adaptation of One Piece.
Daz Bonez (ダズ・ボーネス, Dazu Bōnesu), code named Mr. 1 (ミスター・ワン, Misutā Wan), was the highest-ranking male Officer Agent of Baroque Works whose body possesses the qualities of bladed steel thanks to the powers of the Dice-Dice Fruit, and his partner was Ms. Doublefinger.[ch. 190] Following the organization's dissolution and arrest, he was sent to Level 5 of Impel Down.[ch. 533] Daz Bonez would later escape and join up with Buggy's crew.
Daz Bones is voiced by Tetsu Inada in the original Japanese version and by Scottie Ray and Brett Weaver in the 4Kids and Funimation dub respectively.
Galdino (ギャルディーノ, Gyarudīno), better known under his Baroque Works code name "Mr. 3" (ミスター・スリー, Misutā Surī) and an Officer Agent of the organization, is a sculptor with the ability of the Paramecia-type Wax-Wax Fruit (ドルドルの実, Doru Doru no Mi), which allows him to generate and control candle wax.[ch. 120, 532] Following the dissolution of the organization, he was captured and taken to Impel Down, where he joined Buggy to escape, then participated in the Marineford War, and subsequently joined Buggy's crew.
He is voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama in the original Japanese version of the franchise. In the English versions of the series, he is voiced by Tom Souhrada in the 4Kids dub [53] and by Duncan Brannan in the Funimation dub. [57]
Alvida (アルビダ, Arubida) is introduced as the fat captain of the Alvida Pirates until she was defeated by Luffy. When she later resurfaced and sided with Buggy following the dissolving of her pirate crew, Alvida gained the powers of the Slip-Slip Fruit which makes her slippery as she also claimed that all her body fat slipped off her.[ch. 50, 98]
Alvida is voiced by Yōko Matsuoka in the original Japanese version except in Grand Battle! Rush, where she was voiced by Yuko Tachibana. In the 4Kids and Funimation dubs, she is voiced by Kathleen Delaney and Laurie Steele respectively.

The Red-Haired Pirates (赤髪海賊団, Akagami Kaizokudan) are led by "Red-Haired" Shanks. Members in the crew include:
"Red-Haired" Shanks (赤髪のシャンクス, Akagami no Shankusu) is a pirate and the captain of the Red Haired Pirate crew.[ch. 434] When he was an infant, he was found in a treasure chest by the Roger Pirates at God Valley and the crew took him in. A young Shanks was an apprentice of the late Pirate King Gol D. Roger and notably served as an apprentice with fellow pirate Buggy the Clown. As an adult, Shanks formed his own crew of pirates called the Red-Haired Pirates, which were named after his distinctive crimson-colored hair.[ch. 19, 434, 506] He is a mentor and hero to Luffy, having known Luffy since the latter was a young child. When Luffy was seven, Shanks saved his life from a sea serpent-type Sea King which cost Shanks his left arm and caused that Sea King to become frightened of him. When the Red Haired Pirates left Luffy's hometown of Foosha Village, Shanks gave the boy his straw hat that had in turn been passed down to him from Gol D. Roger and instructed Luffy to return the hat to him when he had become a great pirate. Shanks eventually becomes one of the Four Pirate Emperors.[ch. 1, 432] Shanks currently has a bounty of 4,048,900,000. [37]
Shanks is one of the most powerful characters in the series. While Shanks' combat feats are more limited in comparison to other characters in One Piece, he has been shown and stated to be quite a dangerous combatant, with him defeating effortlessly characters like Eustass Kid, Admiral Akainu and Blackbeard flat-out refusing to face him, and him being a rival to Dracule Mihawk in their youths. Shanks is able to use all three forms of Haki: Haoshoku/Conqueror, Busoshoku/Armament, and Kenbunshoku/Observation and is one of three known characters in the series to be able to use the advanced forms of all three types of haki, with the other two being Luffy and Kaido. Notably, Shanks used Conqueror's Haki during Wano to make Marine Admiral Greenbull feel immense pain and retreat from battle despite Shanks being miles away from Greenbull's location. He has used Armament Haki to make his sword easily withstand a blow from Admiral Akainu, who has magma manipulation abilities and is capable of punching someone with fists of pure magma. He has used Observation Haki to both pinpoint the location from an opponent from miles away numerous times, notably in Wano and Elbaph, and has minor precognitive abilities through the usage of his Observation Haki. Shanks also possesses limited pyrokinetic abilities as he is capable of setting the blade of his sword Gryphon alight with fire and using it to fight his enemies. Shanks' Haki is visually represented as red and black lightning-like energy and is even powerful enough to impact material items as when he used Conqueror's Haki to weaken Whitebeard's crew, their ship started to damage in his presence.
Shanks would later be revealed to have been a Celestial Dragon by birth, specifically being the son Figarland Garling and younger twin brother of Figarland Shamrock as revealed during the events at Elbaph.
In the original Japanese series, his voice actor is Shūichi Ikeda. [1] In the 4Kids English adaptation, he is voiced by Tom Souhrada. [43] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice actor is Brandon Potter. [3] In the Netflix adaptation he is portrayed by Peter Gadiot.
Ben Beckman (ベン・ベックマン, Ben Bekkuman) is the first mate of the Red-Haired Pirates.[ch. 1]
Ben Beckman is voiced by Kazuyuki Sogabe in Episode 4 of the original Japanese anime, Kenichi Ono in Grand Battle! Rush!, and by Aruno Tahara starting in Episode 151. In the 4Kids dub, he is voiced by Andrew Paull. In the Funimation dub, he is voiced by Shean Hennigan.

The Whitebeard Pirates (白ひげ海賊団, Shirohige Kaizokudan) are a group led by Whitebeard and sixteen division commanders, each in charge of one hundred men. [58]
Former member Marshall D. Teach leaves and starts his own crew after murdering Thatch.[ch. 440] Kozuki Oden was part of this group once when he led the second division as its original commander.

Edward Newgate (エドワード・ニューゲート, Edowādo Nyūgēto), better known as Whitebeard (白ひげ, Shirohige), is the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates and one of the Four Emperors who comes from the island of Sphinx.[ch. 432, 474] He is a large and burly old man who fights with a naginata as his weapon and uses the ability of the Paramecia-type Tremor-Tremor Fruit (グラグラの実, Gura Gura no Mi) to create shock waves powerful enough to cause earthquakes and tsunamis.[ch. 434, 552] Whitebeard was capable of utilizing all three types of Haki and was capable of using the advanced application for both and Haoshoku and Busoshoku Haki. Whitebeard is regarded as the world's strongest man and the only one to have matched Gol D. Roger in combat back when Whitebeard was a member of the Rocks Pirates.[ch. 233f.] He considers all of his crewmen as his sons and protects them with all his might.[ch. 434] After his crew member Portgas D. Ace is sentenced to death when he was captured by Blackbeard (who Ace was after for murdering Thatch), Whitebeard declares war on the Marines and attacks their stronghold with his fleet. Eventually after being badly wounded in the war and revealing that he saw One Piece while not claiming it, Whitebeard is killed by the Blackbeard Pirates just before he proclaimed that the One Piece is real and that it indeed exists. After Whitebeard's death, Blackbeard uses an unknown method to steal his Devil Fruit power.[ch. 576] At the time of his death, Whitebeard held a bounty of 5,046,000,000, the second-highest bounty ever for a pirate after Roger. [37]

Roger (ゴール・D・ロジャー, Gorū Dī Rojā) and Portgas D. RougePortgas D. Rouge (ポートガス・D・ルージュ, Pōtogasu Dī Rūju).[ch. 525, 550] Having eaten the Logia-type Flare-Flare Fruit/Flame-Flame Fruit (メラメラの実, Mera Mera no Mi), Ace is capable of manipulating, creating, and transforming into fire.[ch. 159] Ace was capable of using utilizing all three types of Haki.[ch. 587] Eventually, after being saved from execution, he shields Luffy from Akainu's magma attack at the cost of his own life.[ch. 574] He is buried on an unnamed island in the New World alongside his captain Whitebeard.[ch. 590]
He is voiced by Toshio Furukawa, while he is voiced by Daisuke Sakaguchi as a child. [11] In the 4Kids English adaptation, his names are changed to Portgaz D. Trace and "Heat Fist" Trace, and he is voiced by Jesse Hooker. [61] In the Funimation English adaptation, his name is spelled Portgas D. Ace, and his voice is supplied by Travis Willingham. [60]

The Seven Warlords of the Sea (七武海, Shichibukai), the full title being The Royal Seven Warlords of the Sea (王下七武海, Ōka Shichibukai), was a group of seven powerful pirates sanctioned by the World Government who hand over a fraction of their loot to the Government. The Government's idea is to use powerful pirates to fight all the lesser ones. Other pirates consider the Warlords to be "government dogs".[ch. 69] In exchange for their allegiance, the World Government pardons these pirates for their crimes and removes bounties from their heads.[ch. 342] The Seven Warlords are loosely based on the European privateers, government-endorsed pirates considered heroes in their homeland and pillagers in others.[ch. 260]
At the beginning of the series, the group's members are Dracule Mihawk, Sir Crocodile, Donquixote Doflamingo, Bartholomew Kuma, Gecko Moria, Boa Hancock, and Jimbei.[ch. 69, 113, 234, 455, 516] [62] In the past, another membrer was Hanafuda (ハナフダ), also known as the "King of Lizards", who after being defeated by Portgas D. Ace, his position was removed and taken by Kuma, and time later after his expulsion being killed by rival pirates.[vol. 111:SBS]
Following the exposure of Baroque Works, Crocodile is replaced by Blackbeard, who soon leaves the group, along with Jimbei, who resigns to side with Whitebeard against the World Government, and Moria, who is discarded by the World Government and narrowly escapes an assassination attempt.[ch. 474, 557, 576, 581, 595] [62]
The three open spots are eventually filled during the timeskip by Trafalgar Law, Buggy the Clown,[ch. 700] and Edward Weevil.[ch. 802] [62] After Law and Doflamingo's actions in Dressrosa are exposed, they both are removed by the World Government.
Later during the Reverie, under the direction of Nefeltari Cobra and Riku Dold III, the member nations vote to abolish the Warlords and the remaining members are stripped of their positions and are being hunted down by the Navy with the intent to capture them with the exception of Kuma.[ch. 956]

The Donquixote Pirates (ドンキホーテ海賊団, Donkihōte Kaizoku-dan), or Donquixote Family (ドンキホーテファミリー, Donkihōte Famirī), are a powerful pirate crew led by Donquixote Doflamingo.[ch. 762] It is split into three divisions, each led by one of the top three officers: the Trébol Army, Diamante Army and Pica Army.[ch. 732] Bellamy was a member of the crew, and Caesar Clown and Disco are also their subordinates.
Donquixote Doflamingo (ドンキホーテ・ドフラミンゴ, Donkihōte Dofuramingo) is the captain of the Donquixote Pirates, the usurper king of the island Dressrosa, and formerly one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.[ch. 234, 682, 728] The String-String Fruit (イトイトの実, Ito Ito no Mi) grants him the ability to control others using movements with his fingers resembling a puppeteer's. It also enables him to control sharp thin strings from his fingertips that can cut people, create clones of himself, and attach to the clouds in the sky to allow him to fly.[ch. 231] He is also capable of utilizing all three types of Haki. He is also a former Celestial Dragon after his father, Donquixote Homing, decided to abandon that life to become a normal human. However, they were chased by the people, tortured, and eventually Doflamingo killed his father. He brought the head of his father back to Mariejois in hopes of receiving his Celestial title back again. He was denied and later became a pirate.
He believes that the "Great Pirate Era" is nearing its end and a new age is about to begin.[ch. 303] He is a broker under the alias of "Joker", and owns a large auction house at the Sabaody Archipelago, where humans and other species are sold as slaves.[ch. 504] Eventually after the Straw Hat Pirates and Dressrosa's citizens reveal his treacherous deeds, Doflamingo is defeated by Luffy and his title is revoked leading to the arrest of him and his pirate crew.
He is voiced by Hideyuki Tanaka. [59] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by Robert McCollum. [60]
Edward Weevil (エドワード・ウィーブル, Edowādo Wīburu), also called "Whitebeard Jr." (白ひげ, Jr. Shirohige Junia), is the self-proclaimed son of Whitebeard and was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He is not very intelligent, and thus constantly manipulated by his mother Buckingham Stussy. Influenced by his mother, Weevil believe that he is the rightful heir of Whitebeard's fortune, not the members of his father's crew, and to claim Whitebeard's treasure that Buckin promised him, he fought and destroyed fifteen pirate crews that served under Whitebeard.[ch. 802]
Edward Weevil is voiced by Kōzō Shioya in the original Japanese version and by Brook Chalmers in the Funimation dub.

The Kuja Pirates (九蛇海賊団, Kuja Kaizokudan) are a crew formed by members of the Kuja Tribe, and captained by their empress, Boa Hancock. They are a crew formed by the strongest fighters of the Kuja, including Hancok's two younger sisters who possess the Zoan-type abilities of the Snake-Snake Fruit (ヘビヘビの実, Hebi Hebi no Mi) branch.[ch. 519]
Boa Hancock (ボア・ハンコック, Boa Hankokku) is a member of the all-female Kuja Tribe from the island of Amazon Lily.[ch. 515f.] Sold to the Celestial Dragons during childhood, she and her sisters are force-fed devil fruits and branded as slaves.[ch. 521] Eventually freed by Fisher Tiger, the three return to their people. Hancock becomes ruler and is referred to by her subjects as "Snake Princess" (蛇姫, Hebihime).[ch. 516, 521] Leading the Kuja Pirates, she quickly gains infamy as the "Pirate Empress" (海賊女帝, Kaizoku Jotei) and is offered membership in the Seven Warlords of the Sea.[ch. 516, 522] Despite resenting the World Government for her past enslavement, which she keeps a secret even from her kinswomen, Hancock accepts the position to protect her people. But when called upon to participate in the Government's war against the Whitebeard Pirates, she initially refuses and only reconsiders after falling in love with Luffy, who enlists her help to infiltrate Impel Down.[ch. 516f., 520–522] Hancock is capable of utilizing all three types of Haki,[ch. 519]
The ability of the Paramecia-type Love-Love Fruit (メロメロの実, Mero Mero no Mi) allows her to turn anyone charmed by her into stone and back again.[ch. 516, 521] [26]
After the most recent Reverie, the Seven Warlords were disbanded, making her an enemy of the World Government again.
In the Japanese anime television series, her voice actress is Kotono Mitsuishi. [63] In the Funimation English adaptation, her voice is supplied by Lydia Mackay.
Salome (サロメ, Sarome) is Boa Hancock's pet snake who supports her in battle.
Boa Sandersonia (ボア・サンダーソニア, Boa Sandāsonia) is the middle sister whose Snake-Snake Fruit: Model Anaconda (ヘビヘビの実:模範キングコブラ, Hebi Hebi no Mi: Moderu Anakonda) enables her to transform into an anaconda or anaconda-human hybrid.
Boa Sandersonia is voiced by Chiwa Saitō in the original Japanese version and by Lindsay Seidel in the Funimation dub.
Boa Marigold (ボア・マリーゴールド, Boa Marīgōrudo) is the youngest sister whose Snake-Snake Fruit: Model King Cobra (スネーク・スネーク・フルーツ:モデル・キング・コブラ, Hebi Hebi no Mi: Moderu Kingu Kobura) enables her to turn into a king cobra or king cobra-human hybrid.
Boa Marigold is voiced by Kimiko Saitō in the original Japanese version and by Julie Mayfield in the Funimation dub.
The Sun Pirates (タイヨウの海賊団, Taiyō no Kaizokudan) are a band of pirates consisting of fish-men and mermen that was originally led by Fisher Tiger and later by Jimbei. They attack any pirate ship they see, but no matter who is on it, they never kill directly.[ch. 622] Their Sun insignia was created to cover up the mark of the Celestial Dragon's slave, "Hoof of the Soaring Dragon", since Tiger Fisher bore the mark from being a slave. During his escape from Marijoa and the World Nobles, he freed other slaves, including mermen, fish-men, and Boa Hancock and her two sisters. After he escaped, Fisher Tiger, Arlong, Jimbei, and Macro adopted the Sun insignia as founding members of the Sun Pirates, having grown up together as sworn brothers from the Fish-Man District.[ch. 621] The Sun insignia was designed to completely cover the Hoof branding, so the World Government was unable to claim the slaves due to mass confusion over whether they were Sun Pirates or not.[ch. 620] The members of the Arlong Pirates and Macro Pirates were also members of the crew.[ch. 622]
The Sun Pirates temporarily shelter a human child, Koala, who escaped from Marijoa during Tiger's liberation,[ch. 622] and eventually return her to her parents on Foolshout Island, where a Marine ambush led by Rear Admiral Strawberry results in Tiger's death.[ch. 623] With Arlong imprisoned, Jimbei took over the Sun Pirates until he joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea; as part of Jimbei's conditions for accepting the role, which he believes will bring Queen Otohime's dream closer to reality, Arlong is released, and the Sun Pirates dissolve.[ch. 624]
The known members of the Sun Pirates are:

The crew of the island-sized ship Thriller Bark (スリラーバーク, Surirā Bāku), captained by Gecko Moria, consists mostly of zombies, numbering in the hundreds, created from corpses.
Gecko Moria (ゲッコー・モリア, Gekkō Moria; a play on kōmori ( 蝙蝠 )) is the captain of the island-sized ship Thriller Bark, leader of Thriller Bark's Mysterious Four, and a former member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.[ch. 448] The Shadow-Shadow Fruit (カゲカゲの実, Kage Kage no Mi) grants him the ability to control his shadow, allowing it to act completely independent from his body, and to control others' shadows.[ch. 455, 463] After his entire crew that made up the Gecko Pirates is annihilated by Kaido, he creates a completely obedient, immortal army of zombies by implanting stolen shadows into corpses.[ch. 457, 481]
Gecko fought Luffy again at Marineford, where he unleashed some Marine zombies on him.[ch. 558] He was struck down by Jinbe.[ch. 559]
After the Summit War of Marineford, Gecko's Warlord title is revoked.[ch. 581] He escapes into the New World region before Donquixote Doflamingo and the Pacifistas can kill him.[ch. 595]
Two years later, Gecko Moria later attacked the Blackbeard Pirates on Hachinosu while looking for Absalom.[ch. 925] He was defeated and imprisoned by Blackbeard when he wouldn't side with him as Catarina Devon revealed that they killed Absalom.[ch. 1080] He was later freed by Perona.[ch. 1126]

After Gecko Moria's defeat, Perona takes shelter in Dracule Mihawk's castle, where she begrudgingly helps and cooperates with Roronoa Zoro in his training during the timeskip.[ch. 597] Upon parting ways with Mihawk, Perona later traveled to Hachinosu upon finding out that Gecko is still alive.[ch. 1080].

The Rocks Pirates (ロックス海賊団, Rokkusu Kaizokudan) were a powerful crew that dominated the seas forty years before the current events of the series; their strength, alongside their reckless and amoral actions led to them being considered a terrorist organization. At one point, they visited Elbaph and had an encounter with Loki when they wanted to see King Harald.

A violent and malevolent man with incredible strength, Xebec desires to be "King of the World", gaining undying infamy after kidnapping five kings and killing an unnamed Admiral at a Reverie 56 years before the Holy Knights attacked Elbaph; the uproar he caused helped Harald to escape. He then hijacked a ship bound for Mariejoa laden with tribute and destroyed the Gates of Justice while fleeing; his deeds and Davy Back Fights led to him recruiting many prominent, fearsome pirates, and after four years, he raided Fullalead to serve as his base.[ch. 1155] As a child, Loki idolized Xebec and approached him on Elbaph, seeking to join his crew, only for Xebec to severely injure the boy giant to discourage him from ever joining.[ch. 1145] Xebec's threat grew to a point where the World Government was willing to accept Elbaph on the condition Harald kills him.[ch. 1157] Rocks and Harald later fought to a draw and Rocks gave up on recruiting Harald.[ch. 1158] When the Rocks Pirates arrived at God Valley to save Shakuyaku, Xebec told his crew not to claim any treasures or Devil Fruits until after the rescue mission is done.[ch. 1160]

The World Government (世界政府, Sekai Seifu) is a global regime that rules over the world of One Piece and is affiliated with over 170 nations from around the world[ch. 398] led publicly by the Five Elders, but is secretly led by Imu. Eight centuries after its foundation by a group of twenty kings known as the First 20 (最初の20人, Sekai Seifu),[ch. 497] their descendants, the Celestial Dragons, live luxurious lives and abuse their power.[ch. 498] The World Government is portrayed in the series as a corrupt, oppressive entity if not an outright authoritarian oligarchy, specifically its implementation of Absolute Justice (絶対的正義, Zettai-Teki Seigi), its censorship and suppression of academia and history like the 100-Year Void (空白の100年, Kūhaku no Hyaku-nen; Void Century) and the Bloodline Elements (血統因子, Kettō Inshi; Lineage Factor) for example, the depravity and cruelty of the aforementioned Celestial Dragons and their abuse of power, and its fabrication of the Empty Throne (虚の玉座, Kara no Gyokuza) which is said that not a single person from any of the nineteen families of Celestial Dragons can rule the world.[ch. 396][ch. 763][ch. 907][ch. 908] Its capital is the holy land of Marijoa (マリージョア, Marījoa; Mary Geoise) where its headquarters is Pangaea Castle (パンゲア城, Pangea-jō), the top leaders of the Government such as Imu, the Five Elders, the Holy Knights' highest-ranking officers like their supreme commander Garling, and the commander-in-chief Kong reside and govern, is the jurisdiction of the aforementioned Holy Knights,[ch. 1054] is the home of the Celestial Dragons, and the royals of nations that are members of the Government assemble in Pangaea Castle to host the Reverie (世界会議, Reverī; Levely).[ch. 906] The Government also has complete control over other branches, subsidiaries, and agencies specifically military forces such as the Holy Knights, Navy, and Seven Warlords of the Sea and agencies like Cipher Pol to enforce its reign and policies. Its greatest enemies are pirates and revolutionaries. The latter of which directly opposes the World Government and are led by the infamous Dragon.
Imu (イム) is the true highest authority of the World Government, making them the shadow leader of the world who occupies the Empty Throne of Pangaea Castle at Mary Geoise. Their existence is kept secret from the world and much within the Government that if anyone witnesses their existence, they are assassinated.[ch. 908][ch. 1085] Imu is shown to have great cruelty and apathy for example when they destroy the kingdom of Lulusia solely because they want to test the weapon's capabilities and it happens to be the nearest country.[ch. 1086] They are rather childish, speaking in third person calling themselves "Mu", and seems to hold a really intense hatred towards those who bear the "Will of D". Imu seems to have eaten an unidentified Mythical Zoan which they are able to assume the form of an enormous demon capable of consuming fire, as well as make it resemble a sharp-pointed, arrowhead-shaped appendage or a tentacle used for piercing, strong enough to mortally wound someone, which they use to try to kill King Cobra after suddenly interrupting his meeting with the Five Elders and finding out the Alabastan royal family were part of the D clan all along.
Imu later dispatched the Holy Knights to Elbaph in order to get it under the World Government's banner. They later possess Gunko in order to check in on the Holy Knights' status after Shepherd Sommers' defeat. Needing the strength of the giants now since Mary Geoise is under attack, Imu has the remaining Holy Knights demonstrate the power of a god. Imu then demonstrates their A Kuwaru ability which turns some of the Giant Warrior Pirates into demons and sends them to target Jarul and conquer Elbaph.

The Navy [e] (海軍, Kaigun; Marines), translated as the "Marines" in FUNimation's English dub, [f] are a maritime force under the command of the World Government. Currently the position of fleet admiral, who is the leader of the organization, is occupied by Akainu. The greatest forces are the three admirals, who are currently Kizaru, Fujitora, and Ryokugyu. The corrupted Captain Ax-Hand Morgan (father of Helmeppo) was the first high-ranking officer of the Navy depicted in the series until he was stripped of his status when he was defeated by Luffy.
The Fleet Admiral is the highest rank in the Navy. Aside from Kong, the following are known fleet admirals:
Sakazuki (サカズキ), better known as Admiral Akainu (赤犬; lit. "Red Dog"), is a ruthless naval officer with the ability of the Logia-type Mag-Mag Fruit (マグマグの実, Magu Magu no Mi), which allows him to control, create, or transform into magma.[ch. 397, 573, 610] Akainu is a firm believer in "Absolute Justice," going as far as eliminating an entire population should an enemy be hidden there. This was first shown when The Navy eradicated Nico Robin's island of Ohara. Akainu destroyed a refugee evacuation ship simply due to the possibility of even one scholar sneaking on board; his logic was that if even one of the scholars of Ohara had escaped with it, the mission would've been a failure, much to the dismay of Aokiji, who called him a fool for overdoing things.[ch. 397] After Sengoku retires, Akainu wins the position of fleet admiral in a duel against Aokiji.[ch. 650] His appearance is modeled after Bunta Sugawara.[ch. 558]
He is voiced at first by Michio Nakao in the earlier parts of the original Japanese version and later by Fumihiko Tachiki in the later parts of the original Japanese version. [81] [82] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by Andrew Love. [83]
"Sengoku the Buddha" (仏のセンゴク, Hotoke no Sengoku; Sengoku also being the name of a period in Japanese history) is a naval officer and contemporary of Roger who eventually rises to the rank of fleet admiral.[ch. 234, 434] The ability of the Mystical Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit: Model Buddha (ヒトヒトの実 モデル:大仏, Hito Hito no Mi, Moderu: Daibutsu) allows Sengoku to transform into a daibutsu or a daibutsu-human hybrid.[ch. 585] Sengoku is capable of utilizing all three types of Haki. Following the Paramount War, he retires from the service and, against his recommendation to promote Aokiji, is succeeded by Akainu.[ch. 650] Although retired from active duty, Sengoku continues to serve in the navy as an inspector general. Two years after the war, he is shown to have mellowed rather considerably due to his lack of responsibilities. It is also revealed that he previously cared for the young Donquixote Rosinante after his brother Donquixote Doflamingo murdered their father, Donquixote Homing. He came to care for Rosinante like a son and was devastated by his death while he was working undercover as a member of the Donquixote Pirates. After Doflamingo's defeat by Luffy, Sengoku learns the truth about the circumstances of Rosinante's death from Trafalgar Law who Rosinante had given his life to protect. Although Law is a pirate, Sengoku allows him to escape because of his connection to Rosinante.
In the Japanese anime television series, he is initially voiced by Takkō Ishimori, later by Tōru Ōkawa. [38] In the Funimation English adaptation, he is initially voiced by Ed Blaylock and later by Philip Weber. [60]
The Admirals are the second highest rank in the Navy. The following are admirals in the Navy:
Borsalino (ボルサリーノ, Borusarīno), better known as Admiral Kizaru (黄猿; lit. "Yellow Monkey"), is an easygoing navy officer with the power of the Logia-type Glint-Glint Fruit (ピカピカの実, Pika Pika no Mi), which allows him to generate, control, or become light as well as fire destructive beams.[ch. 507, 511] Despite his unusually calm and laidback demeanor often leading to absent-mindedness (asking pirates for Sentomaru's direction), he is a highly competent and unforgiving fighter.[ch. 507] He is depicted as being conflicted in his missions, befriending Vegapunk whom he had been ordered to arrest for 26 years; his killing of Vegapunk would traumatize him to the point he uncharacteristically lashed out at Sakazuki and caused him to sincerely apologize.[ch. 1124]
The character's appearance is modeled after Kunie Tanaka.[ch. 558] Originally voiced by Unshō Ishizuka until 2018, he was replaced after death by Ryōtarō Okiayu. [84] [85] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by Ray Hurd. [86]
Issho (イッショウ), better known as Admiral Fujitora (藤虎; lit. "Purple Tiger"), is one of the Navy admirals who joined during the timeskip. He has the ability to control gravity through the powers of the Press-Press Fruit, being able to make the environment heavier or lighter. Having blinded himself due to the trauma of numerous atrocities prior to his Navy career, he uses Color of Observation Haki to feel what is around him.[ch. 799]
He wanted to end the Seven Warlords of the Sea system, which is why in Dressrosa he had a conflict against Donquixote Doflamingo and Trafalgar Law, where he later had to team up with the latter and the Straw Hat Pirates to stop Doflamingo's corruption. Despite orders to arrest him, a fight with Luffy made him gain immense respect for the pirate, willfully permitting the Straw Hats' escape to Sengoku's chagrin.[ch. 799]
His character appearance is modeled after Shintaro Katsu. In the original Japanese version of the anime, he is voiced by Ikuya Sawaki. In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by Charles C. Campbell.
Aramaki (アラマキ), better known as Admiral Ryokugyū (緑牛; lit. "Green Bull"), is the second of the two admirals appointed to their rank during the two-year timeskip, next to Fujitora. He ate the Forest-Forest Fruit, a Devil Fruit power that allows him to generate, control, or become plant life like a forest, trees, and flowers, as well as manipulation of all plant life [ch. 1054], whether on a small or massive scale, with vegetation growing wherever he treads. Inter alia, Ryokugyu can summon roots to impale people and objects and then drain them of their moisture and nutrients,[ch. 1053] which has allowed him to go three years without eating anything the conventional way.[ch. 905] While easygoing much like former Admiral Aokiji, Ryokugyu appears to be a supporter of Akainu's brand of Absolute Justice, but he is more prone to destroying those who do not side with his brand of "justice", especially when it comes to the World Government authority, unlike Sakazuki [ch. 1054]. So, thus the is venturing to Wano to try to bring down Luffy to get his superior's approval.[ch. 1053] Ryokugyu's appearance seems modeled after Japanese actor Yoshio Harada.
Ryokugyu is voiced by Jun'ichi Suwabe [g] in the Japanese version of the anime. In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by Matthew David Rudd.
The Vice-Admirals are the third highest rank in the Navy.
Monkey D. Garp (モンキー・D・ガープ, Monkī Dī Gāpu), nicknamed Garp the "Fist" (ゲンコツのガープ, Genkotsu no Gāpu) and "Hero of the Navy" (海軍の英雄, Kaigun no Eiyū), is a vice-admiral, Monkey D. Dragon's father and Luffy's grandfather.[ch. 432] He is famous for cornering Gold Roger [ch. 431] and considered a hero of the Navy.[ch. 432] After Roger's execution, he took care of Roger's son Ace and raised him like his own grandson.[ch. 551] He has superhuman strength, enough to lift and throw cannonballs like baseball pitches.[ch. 438] Garp takes both Koby and Helmeppo under his wing.
At the end of the war with Whitebeard, Garp retires from the front line and decides to train the next generation of navy personnel. He is imprisoned on Fullalead by Blackbeard after saving Koby on the island.
Garp is capable of utilizing all three types of Haki. and is capable of using the advanced application for both Haoshoku and Busoshoku Haki.[ch. 1080]
He is voiced by Hiroshi Naka in the Japanese version of the anime. [52] In the English version of the series, he is voiced by Brian Mathis in the Funimation dub. [87]
In the live-action series, Garp is portrayed by Vincent Regan. [88] Unlike the manga, Garp's fleet arrives after Luffy defeated Arlong. After a brief spar, Garp lets Luffy leave and tells his crew to focus on arresting the Arlong Pirates first.
"White Chase" Smoker (白猟のスモーカー, Hakuryō no Sumōkā) is a naval officer and cigar enthusiast, keeping plenty of cigars strapped to the left side of his jacket while smoking two lit ones.[ch. 98] Smoker possesses power of the Logia-type Smoke-Smoke Fruit (モクモクの実, Moku Moku no Mi) allows him to manipulate, create, and transform into smoke.[ch. 100] His weapon is a jutte tipped with sea-prism stone. Upon seeing Luffy smile before miraculously surviving his execution in Loguetown, Smoker came to believe that he is a potential threat, since his attitude during his near demise, mirrored that of Gold Roger when he was executed, Smoker became more confused when Dragon stopped him from killing Luffy. Befuddled by these events, Smoker followed Luffy to the Grand Line and became obsessed with capturing him, to a near stalker like level, which only intensifies upon discovering Luffy is Dragon's son during the Paramount War. Smoker is a mentor of Tashigi since the Straw Hats arrived at Loguetown.
Two years after the Paramount War, he is promoted to the rank of vice-admiral.[ch. 169] Smoker unwillingly allied with the Straw Hats and the Heart Pirates on Punk Hazard due to Trafalgar Law's interference, assisting in the defeat of Caesar Clown.[ch. 655]

Due to an invasion of Zou by the Animal Kingdom Pirates led by Jack, Dogstorm lost half a leg, while Cat Viper lost half an arm. When the Straw Hat Pirates and the Heart Pirates arrived in Zou, they formed an alliance with them and the Kozuki Clan to travel to Wano and end Kaido's tyranny.

Wano Country (ワノ国, Wano Kuni) is a nation in the New World unaffiliated with the World Government. It has its own warriors, the samurai, who are swordsmen so strong that not even the Navy goes near them. It was first mentioned by Hogback as Ryuma was from this particular country. Yakuza families have also formed the day when Kaido helped the Kurozumi Family overthrow the Kozuki Family. Roronoa Zoro is a descendant of Wano Country immigrants to the East Blue.
In Punk Hazard, the Straw Hat Pirates met two residents of Wano, Kin'emon and his "son" Momonosuke, who temporarily accompanied them on their journey. Later, they discover that Momonosuke is actually the son of Kozuki Oden, and part of the royal family of Wano, and Kin'emon is actually his father's retainer.
Kozuki Oden (光月おでん, Kōzuki Oden), in addition to having been the daimyo of Kuri and son of the country's former shogun Kozuki Sukiyaki, was also a legendary, immensely powerful and skilled swordsman and samurai who developed his own variation of Nitoryu. Oden was specialized in the style of two swords, his legendary dual wielding swordsmanship allowing him to permanently scar a transformed Kaido.
Additionally, he was the leader of a group of legendary and powerful samurai known as the Nine Red Scabbards, with all of them serving as his retainers and most trusted allies. As daimyo of Kuri, Oden had a large amount of power and influence over the region before his death. Oden became a famous pirate for several years by joining the Whitebeard Pirates and later the Roger Pirates. Oden was regarded as being a tremendously powerful pirate with a great level of influence in both crews, helping the latter decipher Poneglyphs in exchange for accompanying their travels on the Grand Line.
In life, Oden is one of the strongest characters in the One Piece world. He was capable of utilizing all three types of Haki, including the advanced application for both Haoshoku and Busoshoku Haki, has the ability to hear the "Voice of All Things" (Like Roger), and wields two legendary swords: Ame no Habakiri, the sword said to be able to cut "heaven" itself, and Enma, the sword said to be able to cut to the "bottom of hell". With those in hand, he is able to clash with the likes of Whitebeard and Kaido. Due to his fearsome strength and affiliation with the Whitebeard Pirates and the Roger Pirates, Oden received a bounty (the amount of which is unknown). When he was defeated by Kaido, Kurozumi Orochi took over Wano Country with Kaido's help and they sentenced Oden to be boiled alive. After he spared his retainers from his fate, Oden was shot in the head by Kaido and died smiling.
In the anime series, Oden is voiced by Hiroya Ishimaru in the Japanese version and by Robbie Daymond in the Crunchyroll dub.
Kozuki Momonosuke (光月モモの助, Kōzuki Momonosuke) is Oden and Toki's son and Hiyori's big brother. He and some retainers were sent ahead in time by Kozuki Toki, where he wound end up eating an artificial version of the Fish-Fish Fruit: Model Azure Dragon that Dr. Vegapunk once created. He ended up being aged up twenty years by Shinobu during the war in Onigashima. Momonosuke became the Shogun after Kaido's defeat.
Kozuki Momonosuke is voiced by Ai Orikasa as a boy in the original Japanese version, Hiro Shimono as an adult in the original Japanese version, and by Corinne Sudberg in the Crunchyroll dub.
The Kozuki Family (光月家, Kōzuki-ke) was originally the ruling family of Wano Country until the Kurozumi Family overthrew them with help from Kaido. Following the defeats of Kurozumi Orochi, Kaido, and Big Mon, the Kozuki Family regained their rule over Wano Country.
Kozuki Oden has different retainers. They together form the group known as the "Akazaya Nine" (赤鞘九人男, Akazaya Kunin Otoko; lit. "Nine Red Scabbards"), a group of powerful samurai who serve Oden and the Kozuki family:
The Kurozumi Family (黒炭家, Kurozumi-ke) are one of the six ruling families of Wano Country. After falling out of power following a failed coup, they allied with Kaido who helped procure their shogunate.
Wano Country was under the control of Kurozumi Orochi (黒炭オロチ, Kurozumi Orochi), the head of the Kurozumi family, who has the ability to become a Yamata no Orochi or a Yamata no Orochi-human hybrid thanks to the powers of the Snake-Snake Fruit: Model Yamata no Orochi. One of the main antagonists of the Wano Country arc, Orochi was a power-hungry tyrant who did not care about the country or its citizens, as he oppressed the citizens for twenty years to the point where he fed starving villagers malfunctioning SMILE Fruits and robbing them of negative emotions, while Wano Country devolved into despondency. He was later betrayed by Kaido to further his goals. He survived Kaido's attack and was later killed by Denjiro. He was succeeded by Momonosuke who became the rightful Shogun of Wano after Kaido's defeat.
Kurozumi Orochi is voiced by Hiroshi Iwasaki in the original Japanese version and by Keith Silverstein in the Crunchyroll dub.
Kurozumi Higurashi (黒炭ひぐらし, Kurozumi Higurashi) is a member of the Kurozumi Family. She ate the Clone-Clone Fruit that enables her to assume the form of anyone. Kurozumi Higurashi was later killed by Kaido when she interfered in his duel with Kozuki Oden with her Devil Fruit being eaten some time after her death by Bentham.
Kurozumi Higurashi is voiced by Hiroko Emori in the original Japanese version.
Kurozumi Tama (黒炭玉, Kurozumi Tama) is a girl from Wano Country's Kuri region, member of the Kurozumi family, and an aspiring kunoichi who knew Portgas D. Ace and allies with the Straw Hat Pirates against the forces of Kaido and Big Mom. Having eaten the Millet-Millet Fruit, Tama can produce dango from her cheeks which have the power to control animals and anyone who has eaten the SMILE fruits for about a month. This ability came in handy when it came to fighting the Animal Kingdom Pirates. Following the death of Kurozumi Orochi and the defeat of Kaido and Big Mom, she tells Monkey D. Luffy that she will join the Straw Hat Pirates after she grows up and become a kunoichi. Tama is the only survivor of the Kurozumi family as her surname and ancestry was never mentioned or known to other characters with the former briefly alluded to in a flashback to her parents' demise. Oda confirmed this in the 105th volume of the manga.
Kurozumi Tama is voiced by Megumi Han in the original Japanese version and by Sarah Wiedenheft in the Crunchyroll dub.
Kurozumi Kanjuro (黒炭カン十郎, Kanjūrō) is a samurai, a retainer, and member of the Kurozumi family who has the ability to give life to the drawings thanks to the powers of the Brush-Brush Fruit. He was in reality a spy for his relative Kurozumi Orochi, having pledged loyalty to Oden in order to unsuccessfully die in his execution and later interfering with the Scabbards' activities. Kanjuro was lethally wounded by Kine'mon and died from his wounds.
Kurozumi Kanjuro is voiced by Takumi Yamazaki in the original Japanese version and by Ben Bryant in the Funimation dub.
There are several yakuza groups that operate in Wano Country.
Five yakuza leaders were captured by Kurozumi Orochi before being freed by Luffy. The known leaders of the yakuza are:
The Kyoshiro Family (狂死郎一家, Kyōshirō Ikka) is a yakuza group that is led by Denjirou under his Kyoshiro alias. Besides Denjirou, the other members of the Kyoshiro Family are:
Yamato (ヤマト), also known as "Ogre Princess" (鬼姫, Onihime),[ch. 1024] is Kaido's daughter.[ch. 984] Having witnessed Kozuki Oden's death, Yamato proclaimed to inherit his will of freeing Wano from Kaido's tyranny, destroying her relationship with her father.[ch. 985] Imprisoned by Kaido for her rebellious acts, she read Oden's logbook with the help of three Wano samurai and eventually befriends a visiting Ace.[ch. 999] Yamato idolizes Oden to the point of adopting male pronouns to be more like him,[ch. 983][ch. 1024] and comically proclaiming to be Oden himself, much to the chagrin of others, like saying Momonosuke (Oden's son) is her son.[ch. 988,989] Yamato consumed the Dog-Dog Fruit: Model Okuchi no Makami, enabling him to become the titular mythological Japanese wolf deity which can produce cold and ice attacks.[ch. 1020] [26] Yamato teams up with the Straw Hats to defeat Kaido, ultimately freeing her from Kaido's control. She refuses to accept an offer to join the Straw Hats, opting to complete a journey around Wano to ensure its safety beforehand; she befriends and recruits Ulti and Page One after defeating Who's-Who.[ch. 1146]
Yamato is voiced by Saori Hayami in the original Japanese version. In the Crunchyroll dub, she is voiced by Michelle Rojas.
Egghead (エッグヘッド, Egguheddo) is a Winter Island where Dr. Vegapunk resides and works. He developed the island into a futuristic island and has a tropical setting due to Dr. Vegapunk's Island A.C. unit. Egghead's factory level is called the Fabriophase, and contains a futuristic city and the Labophase laboratory. Egghead was later ravaged by a Buster Call during the Marines' invasion.
Dr.Vegapunk (ベガパンク, Begapanku) is a scientist who is immersed in his work. While originally the director of MADS (which also consisted of Buckingham Stussy, Caesar Clown, Queen, and Vinsmoke Judge) before the group was arrested, Vegapunk was brought into the Marines as its head scientist.
Some of Vegapunk's achievements when working for the Marines have included but are not limited to using seastones on the hulls of ships to keep the Sea Kings away, researching the Lineage Factor, creating artificial lifeforms, doing gigantification research, figuring out how to make an inanimate object "eat" a Devil Fruit, doing cyborg modifications to people, working on warping technology, and a Den Den Mushi that can broadcast anything across the world.
Vegapunk originally had an enlarged head the size of a giant as a side effect of eating the Brain-Brain Fruit which enabled him to absorb and store a lot of information that he has learned. He would later split his brain and place them into his Punk Records. Vegapunk later created some satellites who assist in his research like the Seraphim Project.
At some point in the past, he had an encounter with Professor Clou D. Clover and learned about the people who had D in their name. Four years later, Vegapunk was saddened when Clover was killed in the destruction of Ohara. Around the time Egghead was constructed, he became good friends with Borsalino, Bartholomew Kuma, his adoptive daughter Jewelry Bonney and Sentomaru. Vegapunk gradually turned Kuma into a mindless cyborg in exchange for Bonney's medical treatment. Unbeknownst to the World Government, he had tampered with this experiment for the duo's benefit.
Vegapunk was first seen on Egghead when the Straw Hat Pirates briefly visited the island. It was through him that they learned the true name of Monkey D. Luffy's Devil Fruit. When the Navy attacked Egghead to assassinate him after York's betrayal, Borsalino killed him in spite of his personal feelings and he died in Sanji's arms. This led to the worldwide broadcast of a pre-recorded video revealing Vegapunk's research on the Void Century.
There is also a functional clone of Vegapunk being brought to Elbaph as part of a meticulous contingency plan.
Dr. Vegapunk is voiced by Yoshito Yasuhara in episode 610 in the original Japanese version and Yōhei Tadano in later episodes of the original Japanese version. In the Crunchyroll dub, he is voiced by Kent Williams.
Dr. Vegapunk's satellites are artificial creations that represent aspects of his personality.
Joshu (ジョシュ, Joshu) is Dr. Vegapunk's pet cat who walks on its hind legs and works as his laboratory assistant.
Joshu is voiced by Hinako Takahashi in the original Japanese version.
Sentomaru (戦桃丸, Sentōmaru) is a large man with a sumo wrestler-like build who is in command of the Marine's Science Unit and the bodyguard of Dr. Vegapunk ever since he was saved by him in his youth. In addition, he is shown to have control over the Pacifista units. Following the time skip, Sentomaru became a full-fledged Marine officer.
During the "Egghead Arc", Sentomaru helped out the Straw Hat Pirates in their mission to rescue Vegapunk from York out of loyalty to Vegapunk. He was briefly captured by the Marines. After the Straw Hat Pirates escape from Egghead, Sentomaru escapes from Marines custody and leaves Egghead on a rowboat with supplies while shedding tears.
Sentomaru is voiced by Kazue Ikura in the original Japanese version and by Greg Ayres in the Funimation dub.
Stussy (ステューシー, Sutyūshī) is an elegant woman who is a clone of Buckingham Stussy developed by MADS who is employed as a spy by Dr. Vegapunk.[ch. 1072] She remained loyal to Vegapunk and has been working as a deep undercover agent of the World Government for 27 years, infiltrating CP0 and becoming one of its masked agents.[ch. 871] Stussy also posed and operated as an emperor of the Underworld under the nickname of the "Queen of the Pleasure District" (歓楽街の女王, Kanraku-gai no Joō).[ch. 860] It was also revealed that Stussy ate an unidentified Bat-Bat Fruit model that enables her to turn into a bat or a bat-human hybrid with blood-sucking abilities.[ch. 1072]
Stussy is voiced by Mami Kingetsu in the original Japanese version and by Anastasia Muñoz in the Funimation dub.
The Seraphim (セラフィム, Serafimu) are Pacifistas that Dr. Vegapunk had developed for the Navy. Each of them is a cyborg clone of a known member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea who resemble their child appearances, are spliced with King's Lunarian Lineage Factor that grants them Lunarian abilities, and have the Green Blood which enables them to copy the powers of a Devil Fruit. When CP0 infiltrated Egghead, they took control of the Seraphim to target their creator and his satellites. Though York later took over them after capturing Vegapunk and the CP0 agents.
There were also some unnamed Seraphim that are Seraphim clones of Sir Crocodile, Gecko Moria, and Donquixote Doflamingo.
Emet (エメト, Emeto) the Iron Giant (鉄の巨人, Tetsu no Kyojin) is a legendary gigantic robot that was created 900 years ago before running out of power and being rendered inert on Egghead. During Luffy's fight with the Marines and the Five Elders, Emet reactivates upon hearing Luffy's Drums of Liberation and helps battle the Marines.
The following are known inhabitants of Egghead with some of them being created by Dr. Vegapunk and his Satellites:
Elbaph (エルバフ, Erubafu) is a mountainous island that is inhabited by giants and has a colossal tree called Treasure Tree Adam that dwarfs all of Elbaph. The lower regions are snow-coated mountains and has been classified as the "Underworld". The upper regions are on the tree and has been classified as the "Sun World". The highest level is classified as the "Astral World". Travel to either of the levels requires the use of an artificial rainbow done by a tool called a Painter (also called a Sunstone). It is ruled under the Warland Kingdom, with its leader currently vacant after Harald's death.
Besides the Giant Warrior Pirates, the New Giant Warrior Pirates, and John Giant, the following reside in Elbaph.
Harald (ハラルド, Hararudo) is the former King of Elbaph and the father of Loki and Hajrudin. A childhood friend of Dorry and Brogy, he is a spoilt and extremely violent man whose strength and iron-fist rule led to him becoming a feared figure around the world. However, a chance meeting with foreign giant Ida (with whom he sired Hajrudin) motivated him to turn over a new leaf, becoming a honorable person and prioritizing the country's development on education and diplomacy. Due to his responsibilities, he neglected his sons' needs, leading to Loki's constant abuse by his family, though Hajrudin was not affected. He later removed his horns due to his ancestors, Ancient Giants, having a penchant for violence. He is killed by his soldiers under mysterious circumstances, which was blamed on Loki.
Loki (ロキ, Roki) is a very large giant with a demonic-looking appearance who is the son of King Harald, the Prince of Elbaph, and the half-brother of Hajrudin.
Born to Harald and Estrid, he was thrown into the Underworld by his mother due to his demonic eyes, only to climb his way back to the palace by himself. After Estrid's death from a sickness, having never recovered from her trauma, he was blamed by the public for any grievances on Elbaph, be it natural disasters or deaths of any cause. Despite Harald's love, his non-presence and further abuse by family led to Loki growing into a lonely and violent yet fundamentally misunderstood individual. He is abused and ostracized by Hajrudin and the other children due to his apparent threat and reckless acts, though his strength allows him to defeat and bully Hajrudin for his illegitimacy. He was a dedicated fan of Rocks D. Xebec, having first met him as an infant, until he was beat to near-death for requesting to join the Rocks Pirates.
Despite his wicked appearance and actions, he was willing to take the blame for Harald's death, sabotaging an unknown actor in the process. At one point in his life, Loki was to have an arranged marriage with Charlotte Lola, spitefully arranged by Elbaph elders and Big Mom due to the latter and Loki's poor reputation in Elbaph. After Charlotte Lola fled the scene, Big Mom tried to use Charlotte Chiffon as a substitute which only made things worse between Big Mom and the giants. He managed to gain the ire of the Figarland siblings, with Shanks trapping him in the Underworld and Shamrock assaulting him for refusing orders to join the God's Knights. He was found by Monkey D. Luffy in the Underworld, bartering a deal for his freedom in exchange for news about Shanks, only to be interrupted by the intervention of the New Giant Warrior Pirates and the God's Knights.
Jaguar D. Saul (ハグワール・D・サウロ, Haguwāru Dī Sauro) is a giant and former Vice Admiral who arrived on Ohara after he deserted the Marines. When the Buster Call was unleashed on Ohara, Jaguar risked his life to keep Nico Robin safe only to be frozen by Kuzan.
He later escapes upon surviving the attack thanks to Ohara's fires, meets Dr. Vegapunk, and helps him gain access to Elbaph's library in Elbaph's Sun World, becoming a history professor.
Jaguar D. Saul is voiced by Takeshi Kusao in the original Japanese version. In Funimation dub, he was voiced by Cole Brown in the earlier episodes and by Mark Stoddart in Movie 8 and the later episode starting at 1042.
Colon (コロン, Koron) is a young half-giant with pink hair who is the son of the giant Ripley and the human Scopper Gaban. Colon is voiced by Arisa Sekine in the original Japanese version.
Ripley (リプリー, Ripurī) is a warrior and biology teacher at the Walrus School who is Colon's mother and Scopper Gaban's wife.
Road of the New Giant Warrior Pirates established a terrarium called the Land of Gods in Bigstein Castle somewhere in Elbaph's Underworld, which he ran as the Sun King and filled it with humans and giant animals.

Not much is known about his activities, background, history, or power. He is the World Government's greatest enemy, and is the most dangerous and most wanted man in the world. Dragon's family ties were revealed to the world, following the end of the Battle of Marineford.

After he and Ace befriend Luffy, the three of them exchange cups of sake and become "brothers" (similar to the initiation ritual in yakuza organizations). Sabo's ship is destroyed by a Celestial Dragon. Though he is thought to have been killed in the attack, Sabo survived and was rescued by Monkey D. Dragon, though he suffers from amnesia. Under Dragon, he joins the Revolutionary Army and ascends the ranks. After hearing of Ace's death, Sabo's grief causes his memory to return. Although remaining loyal to the Revolutionary Army, Sabo becomes determined to obtain Ace's Devil Fruit, the Flame-Flame Fruit, to inherit Ace's will. He later finds it as the prize of a tournament on Dressrosa, where he reunites with Luffy and takes his place by using Luffy's alias "Lucy".[ch. 744] After winning the tournament, Sabo eats the Flame-Flame Fruit and battles Admiral Fujitora and Jesus Burgess in an effort to protect Luffy. He was later framed for the murder of Nefeltari Cobra after witnessing the existence of Imu.

He later became the King of the Sorbet Kingdom, raising Jewelry Bonney, Ginny's daughter, from childhood.[ch. 1098] The power of the Paramecia-type Paw-Paw Fruit (ニキュニキュの実, Nikyu Nikyu no Mi) allows his palms to repel anything, from physical objects such as people or air to abstracts such as pain and fatigue.[ch. 484f.] [27] He can use this ability to safely transport himself or others over long distances.[ch. 514] Kuma is the model for the Pacifista (パシフィスタ, Pashifisuta), a class of experimental cyborgs created by Dr. Vegapunk for the Government. Their bodies are made of a substance harder than steel, and they can shoot powerful blasts from their mouths that can melt metal.[ch. 485] The other Pacifista look just like Kuma, sharing his towering, bear-like stature, but lack the Paw-Paw Fruit's ability. Instead, they are able to shoot laser beams from their palms.[ch. 508f.] At some point during his gradual conversion into the human weapon "PX-0", Kuma's personality is erased, leaving him a programmable fighting machine under the Government's control until becoming a slave-to-rent for the World Nobles as punishment for aiding Luffy.[ch. 559f.] However, parts of his personality gradually returned as he unexpectedly ran across the Grand Line to Egghead to save Bonney, enough to recognize her and attack Jaygarcia Saturn; he became a companion of the Straw Hat Pirates on their escape, arriving on Elbaph with them.

Allen Divers of Anime News Network comments that the male character designs of One Piece are "often quite varied and unique", while the female ones become "a bit repetitive". He also notes that, as the characters are "defined by what they seek", there is little room "for actual development". [133] Todd Douglass Jr. of DVD Talk simply states that the series' characters have a lot of "charm". [134] His colleague Carl Kimlinger 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". He also 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". He laments 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". He also states 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." [135]
Dustin Somner of Blu-ray.com comments that the Japanese and Funimation voice-acting is "fairly good, but not exceptional" and sometimes "overly zany". [136] Todd Douglass Jr. of DVD Talk notes "the daunting cast of characters, both good and bad" as "one of the appealing factors" of the anime, but also comments that "Some of the voices [of the 4Kids dub] were pretty irritating ... with a lot of high-pitches and over exaggerated speech." [137] Brigitte Schönhense of Splashcomics comments that the "brilliant" (German : 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. [138] [139] 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". [140] His colleague 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." [141]
