El manga One Piece cuenta con un extenso elenco de personajes creados por Eiichiro Oda . La serie se desarrolla en un universo ficticio donde un gran número de piratas, soldados, revolucionarios y otros aventureros luchan entre sí, utilizando varias habilidades sobrehumanas . La mayoría de los personajes son humanos, pero el elenco también incluye enanos , gigantes , tritones y sirenas , hombres-pez , [a] gente del cielo y visones, [b] y muchos otros. Muchos de los personajes poseen habilidades obtenidas al comer "frutas del diablo". La trama de la serie sigue las aventuras de un grupo de piratas en su búsqueda del mítico tesoro "One Piece".
Monkey D. Luffy es el protagonista principal de la serie, un joven pirata que desea suceder a Gold Roger, el fallecido Rey de los Piratas, encontrando su tesoro, el "One Piece". A lo largo de la serie, Luffy reúne una diversa tripulación llamada los Piratas del Sombrero de Paja, que incluye: el combatiente con tres espadas Roronoa Zoro (a veces llamado Roronoa Zolo en el manga en inglés); la ladrona y navegante Nami; el cobarde tirador e inventor Usopp; el amoroso cocinero y artista marcial Sanji; el reno antropomórfico y médico Tony Tony Chopper; el arqueólogo Nico Robin; el carpintero de barcos cyborg Franky; el músico esqueleto viviente Brook; y el timonel hombre-pez Jimbei. Juntos navegan por los mares en busca de sus sueños, encontrando otros piratas, cazarrecompensas, organizaciones criminales, revolucionarios, agentes secretos y soldados del corrupto Gobierno Mundial, y varios otros amigos y enemigos.
Se ha afirmado que varios personajes están basados en piratas y marineros reales, como: Eustass Kid ( Eustace the Monk y William Kidd ), X. Drake ( Sir Francis Drake ), Basil Hawkins ( Basil Ringrose y John Hawkins ), Capone Bege ( Al Capone y William Le Sauvage), Jewelry Bonney ( Anne Bonny ), Urouge ( Aruj y Oruç Reis ), Alvida ( Awilda ), Bartolomeo ( Bartholomew Roberts ), Bellamy ( Samuel Bellamy ), Barbanegra ( Edward Teach ), Cavendish ( Thomas Cavendish ), Big Mom ( Charlotte Badger ), Gold Roger ( Olivier Levasseur ), Lafitte ( Jean Lafitte ), Roronoa Zoro ( François l'Olonnais ), Silvers Rayleigh ( Sir Walter Raleigh ), Thatch ( Edward Thatch ), Yorki ( Calico Jack ), Zeff y Sanji ( Greaves "Red Legs" ), Trafalgar Law ( Edward Low ), Barbarossa ( Hayreddin Barbarossa ) y Scratchmen Apoo ( Chui A-poo ). [cap. 508] El travesti Emporio Ivankov está basado en el Dr. Frank N. Furter y Norio Imamura . Norio le había pedido a Oda que dibujara más personajes okama (homosexuales) y se convirtió en el primer actor de doblaje de Ivankov. [cap. 570]
Oda había creado a Helmeppo antes de crear al Capitán Morgan, el padre de Helmeppo. Oda originalmente nombró a Morgan por "Chop", siendo el título completo del personaje "Capitán Naval Chop" o "Marinero Chop". "Marinero" en japonés es suihei (水兵) , y "Suihei Chop" es una técnica de lucha utilizada por Giant Baba , un luchador japonés. Creó varias versiones de Morgan antes de decidirse por el diseño final. Después de que un editor le dijera que Morgan, en palabras de Oda, "lucía patético", cambió el diseño a su estilo final. [vol. 1:p. 144 (en)]
Los protagonistas de la serie One Piece son todos los miembros de los Piratas del Sombrero de Paja (麦わらの一味, Mugiwara no Ichimi ) , una tripulación de diez piratas capitaneada por Monkey D. Luffy. El número de la tripulación aumenta a lo largo de la serie, a medida que Luffy recluta nuevos miembros. Una vez que Usopp se une a los Piratas del Sombrero de Paja, obtienen su propio barco, el Going Merry , que luego es destruido y reemplazado por un navío más grande y poderoso, el Thousand Sunny creado por su carpintero Franky. Dos años después, los de Sombrero de Paja obtienen una nueva flota, llamada la Gran Flota de Sombrero de Paja, que consta de 5.640 piratas de siete tripulaciones diferentes; Luffy se opone a la idea de ser un comandante de flota y organiza su nuevo ejército de manera que puedan actuar de forma independiente, pero cuando una tripulación está en problemas, los demás deben hacer lo que puedan para ayudarlos. Al final del Arco del País de Wano, los Piratas del Sombrero de Paja son reconocidos como una tripulación liderada por el Emperador y Luffy también es reconocido como el líder de la Gran Flota de Sombrero de Paja [cap. 903] y los otros nueve miembros como sus Oficiales Superiores [cap. 1058] después de la derrota de Kaido y Big Mom .

Ridiculizado y rechazado, inadvertidamente come su tesoro, la fruta Goma-Goma de tipo Paramecia (ゴムゴムの実, Gomu Gomu no Mi ) , que le da atributos gomosos. Sus esfuerzos imprudentes finalmente lo llevan a un grave peligro haciendo que Shanks pierda un brazo mientras lo rescata. Después de esto , Luffy renuncia a unirse a Shanks, resolviendo en cambio comenzar una tripulación propia y convertirse en el Rey de los Piratas. 1] Disgustado por el modo en que Shanks mima a su nieto, Garp lleva a Luffy a donde Curly Dadan y sus bandidos de la montaña lo crien, a quienes obliga a que lo acojan. Durante el tiempo que Luffy pasa allí, se convierte en hermano jurado de Ace, el otro pupilo de Garp, y Sabo, un noble fugitivo local. [cap. 582–589]
Diez años después y todavía con el preciado sombrero de paja de Shanks, Luffy forma y comanda su propia tripulación pirata llamada Los Piratas del Sombrero de Paja y zarpa hacia Grand Line , ganando rápidamente infamia como Luffy "Sombrero de Paja" (麦わらのルフィ, Mugiwara no Rufi ) .

[cap. 590–602] Debido a su infamia, es uno de los piratas conocidos como "La Peor Generación". Después de la derrota de Kaido y Big Mom, posteriormente es nombrado uno de los miembros más nuevos de los Cuatro Emperadores.

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]
Buggy (バギー, Bagī) is a 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.] 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.[40] 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.[41] 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".[42] Jacob Hope Chapman of the same site said that seeing Buggy during the Jaya Arc was "entertaining".[43] 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".[44] He was "disappointed" that Buggy, Smoker, and the Strawhats did not have a conflict at sea.[45] 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".[46] He said that he believes that Buggy is being set up as a regular character because he was "afraid he might lose him".[47] 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."[48]
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] heads the criminal organization known as Baroque Works as president and is arrested after he was defeated by Luffy.[ch. 113]
Sometime after the mass-prison breakt at Impel Down, Sir 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.[49] In the 4Kids adaptation, Crocodile is voiced by David Brimmer.[50] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by John Swasey.[39]
Crocodile is played by Joe Manganiello in the live-action adaptation of One Piece.
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 a 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]

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 King, a kind of sea serpent-like creature which cost Shanks his left arm. 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.[33]
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 Elbaf, 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.

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 autocratic 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. 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 a yet-to-be-identified Mythical Zoan which they are able to assume the form of an enormous, beast-like, yet humanoid creature 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.
The Five Elders (五老星, Gorōsei) are a council of older men who are the official highest authorities of the World Government, making them the leaders of the world,[ch. 233] and the highest-ranking Celestial Dragons[ch. 907] with each of them being in charge of a political field in the Government. They all gather at the Hall of Power (権力の間, Kenryoku no Ma, Room of Authority) of Pangaea Castle where they meet with those who have been granted an audience. The Elders are greatly concerned about protecting the unbalanced world from the influence of piracy and preserving the World Government's public image, even goes as far as covering up its tyrannical nature and reputation from the general public. They and the rest of the World Government even pay no mind to the atrocities against countries affiliated with them committed by two of the Seven Warlords of the Sea Crocodile and Donflamingo. While they are publicly the heads of the World Government, in reality, however, the only person they secretly answer to is Imu with extreme loyalty.[ch. 907]
They all ate Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits which allow them to transform into enormous, monstrous creatures which they all appear in their fruits' Awakened abilities and are based East Asian mythology and folklore.
During the events of the Egghead Incident, all Elders had to go to Egghead to stop a pre-recorded broadcast that activated after Dr. Vegapunk's death by the hands of Admiral Kizaru in the Marines' invasion while having to contend with the Straw Hat Pirates and the Giant Warrior Pirates.

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. 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.[56][57] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by Andrew Love.[58]

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.

"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] The character's appearance is modeled after Kunie Tanaka.[ch. 558]
He is initially voiced by Unshō Ishizuka, later by Ryōtarō Okiayu.[59][60] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by Ray Hurd.[61]

He has the ability to control gravity through the powers of the Press-Press Fruit, being able to make the environment heavier or lighter. He is blind, so he uses Color of Observation Haki to feel what is around him.
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 the fact that the next day he had orders to arrest Luffy, his vision of justice forced him to help him escape. Fujitora's 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 he is venturing to Wano to try to bring down Luffy to get his superior's approval.[ch. 1053]

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.
Two years after the Paramount War, he is promoted to the rank of vice-admiral.[ch. 169]

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 there. Yakuza families have also formed the day when Kaido helped the Kurozumi Family overthrow the Kozuki Family.
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, just like the legendary Samurai Miyamoto Musashi, and his legendary dual wielding swordsmanship allowed him to give the Mythical Zoan enhanced nigh-indestructible Kaido, a massive and deep permanent scar.
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 on the Roger Pirates. Oden was regarded as being a tremendously powerful pirate with a great level of influence in both crews.
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.

He is voiced by Tōru Furuya as an adult and as a child by Junko Takeuchi, however following Tōru's extramarital affair, he was voiced by Miyu Irino from episode 1116 onwards.[72] In the Funimation English adaptation, his adult voice is supplied by Vic Mignogna in the dub of One Piece Film: Gold and Episode of Sabo and by Johnny Yong Bosch in all other appearances, while his child voice is supplied by Morgan Garrett.

The "Tyrant" (暴君, Bōkun) Bartholomew Kuma (バーソロミュー・くま, Bāsoromyū Kuma, kuma (熊) meaning bear), is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea; the only one with a reputation for complete obedience to the World Government, when in fact he is an officer of the Revolutionary Army.[ch. 234, 473f., 603] 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.] 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.]

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".[74] Todd Douglass Jr. of DVD Talk simply states that the series' characters have a lot of "charm".[75] 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."[76]
Dustin Somner of Blu-ray.com comments that the Japanese and Funimation voice-acting is "fairly good, but not exceptional" and sometimes "overly zany".[77] 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."[78] 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.[79][80] 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".[81] 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."[82]
