* NotSoAboveItAll: He had every intention of avoiding Shanks after Marineford, due to having both attacked Luffy and wasted good alcohol while doing so, two of Shanks' major [[BerserkButton Berserk Buttons]]. He's left fuming when Shanks shows up anyway at the end of the Marineford, making avoidance impossible.



* BringIt: He essentially does the same thing Mihawk did to Zoro, although in a much crueler and sadistic fashion. After sparing the Straw Hats after the attack on the Human Auction House, he leaves behind a message: "Don't leave me hanging", which Luffy realizes is a challenge for them to get strong enough to challenge him, since he could have easily killed the crew, and has now made painfully aware just how much more difficult the New World is going to be.

* PeoplePuppets: His String-String fruit allows him to control others like marionettes. He showed it, despite not being anywhere ''near'' the Auction House, by controlling the Auction's guards to fight beyond the point of exhaustion, and even the assembled Straw Hats and Supernovas until Rayleigh intervened.

In the ''This Bites!'' universe, however, Luffy knocked Shiki's swords away with his sea prism stone-infused pipe before defeating him, so ''this'' Shiki is still alive and has been imprisoned in Impel Down.

** During the Omatsuri saga, he uses the pommel of his prized sword to DopeSlap Shanks, to help him jog his memory.
** He's completely taken aback when it's revealed that Buggy is revealed to be affiliated with Shanks.
** During the Whitebeard War, even he apparently couldn't resist the urge to see if Buggy's nose was real or fake...but slicing it with his sword.

** The Straw Hat Pirates, ''especially'' Luffy and Nami.

When he wakes up after his defeat, he even starts planning his revenge on Luffy before getting knocked out by Hancock. Later on, the very fact that Luffy is about to outdo the last remaining achievement to Shiki's name on a far grander scale is enough to make him scream in incoherent rage. It's safe to say he might actually hate Luffy ''more'' than he does Roger.



* {{Bookends}}: His story began with his defeat at the hands of Gold Roger, which eventually led to him being captured by the Marines and incarcerated into Impel Down. Fittingly, ''Strong World'' ends with him being defeated by Roger's successor, Monkey D. Luffy, and then captured by Hancock and re-incarcerated back into Impel Down.

* RageBreakingPoint: Played with as he is the ''source'' for the Straw Hat Pirates after kidnapping Nami twice, forcing them to fight against mutant beasts for a straight week and wiping the floor with them. By then, they are not only wishing for his defeat but also his ''death''. Played straight when Shiki sees his 20-year plan crumble by the hands of two Rookie crews from the East Blue and goes all out to destroy them.

* BerserkButton: Downplayed overall, but a good way to send her into a TranquilFury is to insult or disparage her love for Conis and Pagaya.
* CanonMarchesOn: Is said to have set off with the Roger Pirates 20 years before the story takes place, when Conis was 4 years old.

[[folder:The Revolutionary Army]]
!! The Revolutionary Army

An anti-World Government organization, devoted to bringing the World Government down. The Straw Hats first draw their attention with the SBS broadcast, and by Enies Lobby, Cross has made contact with them and has agreed to become allies.
----

* FullCircleRevolution: One reason why Cross rejects joining them outright; knowing how the Celestial Dragons originally overthrew their government to become the ruling party of the world and ended up corrupt due to generations of keeping themselves in power, he can easily see how the Revolutionaries could follow the same path. Dragon has foreseen this and has taken precautions, but accepts Cross's viewpoint.
--> '''Cross:''' After all, at the end of the day, 'revolution' means to go around in a circle.
* OffscreenTeleportation: However they got Cross from Water 7 to Baltigo and back in the space of a couple of hours.
* PublicSecretMessage: In Chapter 23, Cross utilizes the SBS to send a coded message to Sabo, phrased so that nobody other than his brothers and the Revolutionaries could discern its recipient, to tell him about his brothers.
* SideBet: There was a big enough betting pool about Dragon's family that when Garp spills the beans over the SBS, Koala wins enough for a lobster vacation in Pucci ''after'' donating half her winnings to the cause.

!!Monkey D. Dragon, a.k.a. "Dragon the Revolutionary"
The enigmatic leader of the Revolutionaries and the Most Wanted Man in the World, as well as Luffy's biological father.
----

* TheDreaded: As the World's Most Wanted Man he certainly is this to his enemies, and even to prospective allies. Best summed up by Cross in the Post-Enies Lobby arc.
--> '''Cross''': "Dragon is scary."
* LikeFatherLikeSon: Dragon to a T. He [[SignatureLaugh laughs]] like his son, grins like his son, and even refuses Cross's spoilers like his son. In his words, "Where would the fun be in that?"
* LikeFatherUnlikeSon: Inversely, he bears little resemblance to his own father, the boisterous Vice Admiral Garp.
* PapaWolf: His reaction to seeing the horror's Lily Carnation inflicted on both Luffy and the Straw hat Pirates on Omatsuri Island, definitely qualifies him as this.
-->'''Dragon''': ''(in his thoughts)'' I know you won't lose, Luffy...but if you don't kill that monster for this, ''then I will.''
* ParentalSubstitute: Dragon for Sabo.
* SeenItAll: Dragon hardly bats an eye when Cross tells him his origins. To him, once you've seen all six of the seas, nothing surprises you anymore...except, perhaps, for Garp's stupidity.
* SoProudOfYou: When Luffy and his crew shoot down the flag at Enies Lobby, effectively declaring war on the World Government.

!!Koala
The Revolutionary Army's Fishman Karate assistant instructor and their contact with the New World Masons, and the only human member of the Sun Pirates.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: While she is very strong in canon (even though she hasn't fought much onscreen/paper), this story establishes her as having both Observation and Armament Haki, and was able to deliver a fight to Vice Admiral Strawberry that was for him ''at best'' a CurbStompCushion.
* AndIMustScream: Her fate as a child slave was definitely this.
* AndThisIsFor: Gets this on Vice Admiral Strawberry after subjecting him to a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.
* BerserkButton: When Cross calls her 'cuddly,' she spends twenty chapters wanting to punch him in the face for it before actually doing so. But almost another twenty chapters later when they meet again and Koala brings it up, Cross forces her to drop the subject by predicting (correctly) that the first thing she did upon meeting Hachi again was to hug him.
** A ''far'' bigger one, as it turns out, is Vice Admiral Strawberry. The second she sees him, she goes from not participating in the Dead End Race to flat out telling Dragon that she doesn't really care what happens afterward or even if he sends her to Karasu (the Revolutionaries' head of discipline), she is going to pound Strawberry flat.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Lays a ''major'' one on Vice Admiral Strawberry for everything that happened with Fisher Tiger's death (Strawberry gave her parents the option of either her being MadeASlave again or them selling out Fisher Tiger).
* ThatManIsDead: Not Koala herself, but she flatly tells Chew and Kuroobi that she was friends with "A white-smelting fishman and a ray fishman who were also named Kuroobi and Chew." And that those two died along with Fisher Tiger.
** Subverted in the final chapter of the "Sabaody Revolution", where she sees their sincere remorse and is willing to consider renewing ties--''if'' they continue down their path to redemption.
* TheDreaded: Is almost certainly this to Strawberry, that is, if he survived the aforementioned beat-down.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: Kuroobi and Chew are this to her thanks to the Arlong Pirates' actions.

!!Sabo
Luffy and Ace's adoptive brother and the Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, he lost his memory as a boy but had it kick-started thanks to Cross not long before Enies Lobby. Though he hasn't seen them for a decade, Sabo remains fiercely protective of his two less sensible brothers.
----
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Since we're given everyone reacting to the SBS, Sabo appears earlier than in canon.
* AmnesiacHero: Sabo has no memory of his past like in canon and does not regain it until Cross sparks his memory with the SBS, specifically during the battle against Lily Carnation.
* BloodBrothers: With Ace and Luffy.
* ShipTease: One-sided on his part, at least. He apparently once tried to put up mistletoe on Koala's favorite route to the sparring arena around Christmas - unfortunately for him, she caught him.

!!Lindbergh
Commander of the Revolutionary Army's Southern Army. He also happens to be both an inventor and a cat Mink.
----
* BerserkButton: He's this to his fellow Commander, Bello Betty. Namely, because he enjoys making her blood pressure rise until she tackles him.
* PantheraAwesome: He's a cat Mink

!!Belo Betty
Commander of the Revolutionary Army's Eastern Army. Her Pump-Pump Fruit allows her to awaken the potential to fight in any individual.
----
* GreenEyedMonster: She is jealous that Cross can inspire so many to fight despite being a base human, using only his words to change the world. The fact her powers let her do the same but have never worked on the same scale leaves her envious of him, and implicitly sad that he can outdo her so much.
* PersonalityPowers: She is a member of the Revolutionary Army, who encourage people to help themselves. Her Devil Fruit lets her physically empower people to fight: helping people help themselves.

[[folder:Portgas D. Ace]]
!! Portgas D. "Fire Fist" Ace

Second Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, biological son of Gol D. Roger, and Luffy's adopted elder brother.
----

* BadassInDistress: He and his allies still get captured by Teach courtesy of [[SpannerInTheWorks Aokiji's]] unplanned intervention, and they were kept drugged to the gills and imprisoned in a refrigerated cell by the Marines for four months, then transferred to Impel Down's Eternal Hell before the war.
* BigBrotherInstinct: Like in canon, Ace is protective of his sworn brothers.
** When Cross lets him know that Sabo is alive, Ace almost roasts him, thinking that he is a lying conman trying to get his only surviving brother killed. He only believes him after Cross swears it while under the full overpowering weight of Ace's Conqueror's Haki.
** During the same broadcast, he nearly killed the transponder snail and his two companions with a combination of his Haki and Devil Fruit abilities a hundred meters away from where they were listening to the broadcast... while wearing a Sea Stone bracelet to help damper his Devil Fruit. Ace has to then be stopped by his allies from hunting down Omatsuri Island and saving Luffy. Why? Because if he saved Luffy, it would be the same as losing faith in his little brother, something that even Luffy would never forgive him for. The pillar of flames he sends up to cheer Luffy on is described as biblical.
* DespairEventHorizon: Upon waking out of his Marine-induced coma, and realizes what fate is in store for him. He recalls Cross's warnings and words about what his pride and pursuit would cost him and put Luffy through and breaks down crying.
* JawDrop: Has an epic one when the SBS announces that Luffy has to beat DJ Octavio, the ruler of all octopi, in a surfing contest.
* KnightTemplarBigBrother: He will burn ''anyone'' he thinks is trying to take advantage of Luffy. Punching Luffy in the face is fine, though; he knows how aggravating Luffy can be.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop:
** Because of the state of his imprisonment, Ace hasn't been keeping up with Luffy's adventures at all since Enies Lobby, necessitating Jimbei to fill him in. Hilariously, that means when Luffy does show up at Marineford, he's the only one who doesn't take his brother's crazy entrance in stride, [[DullSurprise as everyone else has long since gotten used to the Straw Hats' insanity]].
** He was the only one blind to the fact that Whitebeard considered him his heir apparent and successor as captain of their crew once the old man died. Even ''[[IdiotHero Luffy]]'' knew, and he barely knows Whitebeard.
* PlayingWithFire: Courtesy of the Flame-Flame Fruit, he is fire itself.
* SinsOfOurFathers: Deconstructed. On top of Ace's own distaste for his father (which he made ''adamantly'' clear on the SBS at the start of his execution), it's not illegal to be related to an outlaw, even one as infamous as Gold Roger. When Sengoku flat-out admits to the world that they don't care about any of the actual, legitimate crimes Ace committed and are instead executing him because he's Roger's son, it backfires ''massively''. The staff at Impel Down are furious because on that basis, neither Ace's imprisonment nor his execution is legal, while Cross points out that the World Government is essentially throwing away thousands of lives and deliberately destabilizing the state of the world over a grudge against a man that has been ''dead'' for over '''''twenty years'''''. In light of that, everyone except the most fanatic of Marines can't help but admit that the idea of holding Roger's crimes against Ace seems ridiculous.
* SpitTake: Does this when the Straw Hats announce their assault on Enies Lobby.
* TearsOfJoy: When Cross convinces him Sabo's alive. He pulls himself together quickly.
* VitriolicBestBuds: With Isuka, after she saves him and reveals she's a deep-cover Mason.

[[folder:The Four Emperors]]
The four most powerful pirates alive who rule the New World, the second half of the Grand Line.

!!"Red-Haired" Shanks - Bounty: ฿4,048,900,000

Youngest of the Emperors and the one with the least apparent manpower, a hard-drinking partygoer who lost his left arm many years ago to save Monkey D. Luffy’s life. None of the above has diminished how powerful he is.
----
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: By observing the telltale mouth position of a cigar smoker from his Transponder Snail and the mention of "an impressive Devil Fruit" and "wielding twin swords", he deduces the mystery guest to be Shiki, which immediately alarms him.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: He may appear to be a hard-drinking partygoer, and he is. But never forget that he's one of the four most powerful pirates in the whole world and he's ''earned'' his title, intending to teach Shiki that the hard way if he beats the Straw Hats.
--> '''Shanks:''' We'll see if the Golden Lion has bitten off more than he can chew by challenging [=the Straw Hat Pirates=]. And if he hasn't? ''(Delivers a burst of Conqueror's Haki)'' '''Then he'll wish that he had.'''
* BigDamnHeroes: He, Rayleigh, and Mihawk were potentially going to go to the East Blue to fight Shiki and his forces if the Straw Hats lost during Strong World.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Compared to the monstrous Kaido, the tyrannical Big Mom, and the venerable Whitebeard, Shanks is a drunkard who doesn't look like he should be standing on par with them and the World Government or even respected in the same breath, and yet he is. And he knows it, considering what he told Lucky Roux a few years back:
--> 'Every second someone like me is the worst nightmare of the World Government, the Elder Bastards die a little bit more inside'.
* TheGadfly: The Christmas special has Shanks sending out drink bottles to a variety of people who are, at the very least, rivals if not outright enemies. Kaidou is getting sake, Big Mom is getting soda, Whitebeard is getting rum, Mihawk is getting wine, Garp is getting whiskey, and the Five Elder Stars... are getting ''nitroglycerin''.
--> '''Raleigh:''' ...excuse me?\\
'''Shanks:''' Well, it's not Christmas without a good gag-gift, is it?\\
'''Rayleigh:''' [[BlankStare *flat stare*]]\\
'''Shanks:''' For the last time, Old Man, I'm 100% positive that I'm not a D!\\
'''Rayleigh:''' Psh. Could have fooled me.
* LessEmbarrassingTerm: What his crew calls a "party," the World Government calls a "rampage."
* OhCrap: During the afore-mentioned AwesomenessByAnalysis when he realizes just who the Straw Hats' guest is:
--> '''Shanks:''' BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THIS ISN'T ONE OF THOSE TIMES!...Damn it damn it damn i—!
--> '''Yasopp:''' How bad, Shanks?!
--> '''Shanks:''' 'Raging bastard who gave Roger ''and'' Garp the fights of their lives' bad! The only cigar-smoking asshole I remember to wield both an impressive Devil Fruit and a matched pair of Graded Swords—!
--> '''Benn:''' Shiki the Golden Lion?! Luffy, how could you possibly be that unluck—?
* PapaWolf: While he's usually content to leave Luffy alone on his journey, he won't hesitate to jump in every once in a while if he thinks his protégé needs it. Part of his motivation for his rampage/party during the Enies Lobby incident was to draw away some heat from the Straw Hats (which succeeded, as it sufficiently distracted every Marine that was on that side of the Red Line). And when Shiki appears on the SBS, the very moment Shanks realizes who he is and his probable intentions, he doesn't hesitate to punch in the Den Den Mushi number as fast as he can so he can threaten the bastard.
* SoProudOfYou: Has high standards for Luffy and celebrates whenever Luffy exceeds them during his escapades on the SBS. Enies Lobby, in particular, made him so proud that in the subsequent party (which the WG called a "rampage") that the Red Hair Pirates had to both celebrate Luffy's newest accomplishment and to distract every Marine in the New World lasted ''two straight days'', long after the Straw Hats had finished leveling the island.
* SpitTake: Upon hearing that the Straw Hats are planning to [[RapePillageAndBurn invade an island and burn it to the ground]], he is visibly stunned. At least, until it turns out that said island was Enies Lobby. Then, he decided it was time to rampage/throw a party due to them setting a "new threshold for insanity."
* TearsOfJoy: In the aftermath of Omatsuri Island, he is relieved that Luffy was able to stop the Baron and save his crew. He even calls into the SBS to recap the crew due to their amnesia of the event, albeit with his voice disguised.

!!Edward "Whitebeard" Newgate - Bounty: ฿5,046,000,000

Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates and the strongest man in the world, he was once renowned as the only pirate equal to the late Pirate King. His old age and failing health do very little to reduce his threat level.
----
* BerserkButton: Halvar - a Devil Dog Suomi sniper - tries to shoot through Whitebeard in order to target Squard (the true target was Whitebeard, but completely focusing on and targeting Squard wouldn't set off his Haki). This has the very unfortunate (for Halvar) side effect of getting Whitebeard's attention focused on him.
->"H-how didn't you notice him sooner!?" Squard blustered.\\
"Because they were using an old sniper's trick: they weren't aiming for me, they were aiming for you. Trying to use you to kill me. Which…"\\
Whitebeard straightened, seemingly none the worse for wear and obviously furious.\\
"'''Was a ''mistake'''''."
* CoolOldGuy: Even in his old age, he holds the titles of Emperor and WorldsStrongestMan for a very good reason.
* LastSecondChance: Right before the War truly begins, he says this.
--> One chance, Sengoku. I'll give you ''one'' chance - give me back my idiot son, and I'll just ''cripple'' your island, not ''sink'' it.
* MrExposition: When Cross muses to himself at the absurdity of the Davy Back Fights, Whitebeard calls in to the SBS to explain the origin and purpose of the games and how even the Four Emperors use them to build up their crews without bloodshed.
* PapaWolf: He calls his crew his sons and they call him "Pops" in return. His one ironclad rule is that nobody harms someone under his command. And if someone violates that rule? That someone just painted a bullseye on their back that the strongest man in the world and his massive crew are now relentlessly targeting.
** This extends to those who are not on his crew, such as Luffy due to OneDegreeOfSeparation as Ace's little brother. During the broadcast from Omatsuri Island he becomes tempted to try and sink the island from his place in the New World when the snipers start hunting down the Straw Hats.
* SignatureLaugh: ''"Gurararara!"'
* TranquilFury
* WorldsStrongestMan: And don't anyone forget it.
* YouGotGuts: When he talks with Luffy over the SBS, and the latter says that he's going to be Pirate King, not Whitebeard, Whitebeard laughs and admits that the fact he's willing to say that straight to him means he may indeed have what it takes.

!!Kaido "of the Beasts" - Bounty: ฿4,611,100,000
[[InsistentTerminology Governor-General]] (not "Captain") of the Beast Pirates, one of the strongest, toughest, and most feared men in the New World. He rules over the region of Onigashima as his home base in Wano Country. His ultimate goal is finding the Ancient Weapons and One Piece in order to start the Final War with the World Government. He has also consumed a Mythical-Zoan Devil Fruit that allows him to turn into a blue-scaled Eastern Dragon.

----
* TheJuggernaut: He's this, and even Cross admits it when he, Conis, Soundbite, Robin, and Su are working to take out Oars's corpse before Moria can animate it, which had been reinforced heavily by Hogback.
--> '''Robin:''' [[NotSoStoic He was going to fight Kaido... with]] ''[[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever this?]]''
--> '''Cross:''' Other way around. He needed ''[[TheJuggernaut this]]'' to fight ''Kaido.''
* TheGhost: Has yet to directly appear in-story, even over the SBS. He was listening to the broadcast of Luffy punching Saint Charloss, as evidenced by Whitebeard talking to him during that time, but Kaido hangs up on him without appearing or saying anything.
* VillainRespect: According to Sheepshead, the Straw Hats and Barto Club impressed him enough to send Sheepshead and Ginrummy to Skelter Bite to offer them a position in his crew (which they promptly decline).

!!Charlotte "Big Mom" Linlin - Bounty: ฿4,388,000,000
Captain of the Big Mom Pirates, wielder of the Soul-Soul Fruit, and the sole female Emperor. She rules over the Totland Archipelago with her countless children. Her dream is to build a paradise where all races can be happy...[[WellIntentionedExtremist by any means necessary]].
----
* AbusiveParents: She has marked Lola for death for rejecting her ArrangedMarriage. She also sent [[SinisterSentientSun Prometheus]] to [[KillItWithFire completely immolate]] her daughter Macarron when she tried to escape the Big Mom Pirates' influence.
* FromBadToWorse: For the World Government, during the attack on Enies Lobby: "Pirate Prince" Cavendish hijacked a ship heading for Totland right as Big Mom got a craving for what was on said ship, goading her into a rampage.
* SkywardScream:
** Upon hearing that Lola was inside the Florian Triangle, she unleashed a furious roar that immobilized the whole of Totland.
** She does it again during Strong World when she sees that Luffy is Roger reincarnated.
* VillainRespect: Like Kaido, she's impressed enough by the Straw Hats and Barto Club to send Pekoms and Baron Tamago to offer them a position in her crew. Ostensibly, anyway.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Whitebeard Pirates]]
!!The Whitebeard Pirates

The most powerful pirate crew in the entire world, who work under Edward "Whitebeard" Newgate, and are referred to as some of his sons and daughters, counting the many other allied pirate crews who work alongside him.

* BadassCrew: They literally ''provide the page image'' for the trope.
* CombatMedic: Whitebeard's team of nurses (Tate, Iris, Hannah, Mila, Shion, Camellia, and Sayuri) are pirates themselves, and are seen fighting in the war after they snuck aboard.
* DieLaughing: When Akainu tries to turn Whitebeard's allies against him by telling them that Whitebeard was planning to sell out his allied crews in exchange for his own, the pirate he chose as a target tells him that Cross warned them about this and the seawalls, and dies laughing that the Marines never had a chance of winning.
* HappilyAdopted: They view themselves as this to Whitebeard, and the feeling is mutual.
* ItHasBeenAnHonor: After the War of the Best is announced and the Division Commanders learn that Whitebeard himself was planning to die so that his crew and allies could escape, they decide as one that Cross is as good as a brother to them for letting them make sure nothing was left unsaid with their father.
** After Akainu destroys the Moby Dick, the ship's Klabautermann manifests and speaks to Whitebeard one last time to tell him this before she's killed.
* ItsPersonal: Marco is... not that fond of Kizaru, after he learned about how he was planning to slap seastone handcuffs on him.
-->"You know, any other day I'd love to make this a bit, but today, I'm more than a little pissed, in no small part at you specifically. So do me a favor by cutting the crap and ''dying'', monkey."
* StayInTheKitchen: Whitebeard himself is somewhat like Sanji in this regard, but he won't stop the likes of Whitey Bay or his nurses from participating in battle (though he did try to keep the latter at Sphinx, he didn't stop them after learning they snuck aboard).
* UndyingLoyalty: To each other.

[[/folder]]

[[folder:The Seven Warlords of the Sea]]

A select group of outlaws granted diplomatic immunity in exchange for a measure of service to the World Government. Though other pirates belittle them as 'Government dogs,' they are collectively a viable counterbalance to the World Government and the Four Emperors.
!!Sir Crocodile
The former leader of Baroque Works, and ArchEnemy of Nefertari Vivi. Following his defeat in Alabasta, he was stripped of his rank and ultimately replaced by Marshall D. Teach, AKA "Blackbeard."
----
* AncestralWeapon: His Sand-Sand Fruit isn't one for him specifically, but it ''is'' one of the Devil Fruits traditionally held by the six Alabastan Royal Guardians. Heck, it's how he gained his "Sir" title before his true colors became known.
** He was also pursuing knowledge of Pluton, which is also one of these.
* KeystoneArmy: As Cross explains to Nami and Zoro, Crocodile's arrogance led him to build Baroque Works around himself. By defeating him, the entire operation would grind to a halt.
* PetTheDog: During the Holiday Special, not only did Crocodile let the Christmas Truce between the royals and rebels go unhindered, but he also got Robin a present. A book from Ohara he had to pay a small fortune to Joker for, all for the sake of the season.
* SandBlaster: His Sand-Sand Fruit grants him this as his primary power. Secondary powers include a TouchOfDeath.
* TakingYouWithMe: When the Government found out that Vivi had been working with the Straw Hats and questioned Crocodile, he gave up everything that he knew on her, intent on dragging Vivi down with him. This information directly led to Vivi getting a bounty, forcing her to flee Alabasta with the Straw Hats.
* WorthyOpponent: After hearing about all the things Luffy has pulled off over the SBS, he's pleased by this, admitting that he didn't lose to some "nobody" after all.

!!"Pirate Empress" Boa Hancock
Empress of Amazon Lily and captain of the Kuja Pirates.
----
* {{Fangirl}}: For the Straw Hats, thanks to Cross's SBS broadcasts on slavery.
* HeelRealization: After hearing Cross’s comments on how pointless it is to spread hate for the sake of hate itself over the SBS, she realizes to her horror that she and her sisters have taken on more than a few of the aspects of the World Nobles.
* NoodleIncident: When Luffy arrives on the isle of Amazon Lily at the end of the Sabaody Revolution arc, instead of the relatively warm reception he was expecting due to the bonds Cross had forged with Hancock by way of the [=SBS=] and Sandersonia, he's greeted by angry Kuja warriors who accuse him of having attempted to assassinate Hancock. Turns out she fainted then was drugged by Stussy as part of an assassination attempt.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: The World Government has taken notice of Hancock's sudden change in behavior ever since the SBS began, such as letting Bartolomeo escape, and capturing Shiki when before she always gave the World Government the cold shoulder. Suspecting she might secretly be supportive of the Straw Hats, especially after they ransacked the slave trade at Sabaody, they send CP-Aigis 0 agent Stussy to try and assassinate her to avoid the worst-case scenario of a Warlord teaming up with the Straw Hat Pirates.
* SignatureLaugh: ''"Snahahaha!"''
* TookALevelInKindness: Cross's speech about hate for hate's sake being pointless is what causes her to spare Marguerite after she correctly reasons that their powers come from Devil Fruits.
* TraumaButton: Downplayed, but Marejois is this for her. She's just able to hide it very well.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: The World Government, knowing her past history as a slave, make plans to assassinate her before she could attempt to team up with the Straw Hats. After Luffy's intervention saves her, she's invited to the battle against Whitebeard, with Elder Nyon heavily suspecting they're using it as a cover to try again during the chaos of the war. Her fears prove to be correct; during Ace and Luffy's retreat, CP Aegis-0 go after Hancock directly after formally stripping her of her title as a Warlord.

!!Dracule "Hawkeye" Mihawk
The greatest swordsman in the world, an ominous and no-nonsense man who often wanders in search of alleviating his constant boredom. Zoro's dream is to defeat him in a duel and claim his title.
----
* BigDamnHeroes: It's implied in Strong World that he, Shanks, and Rayleigh were going to fight Shiki and his forces together if the Straw Hats lost.
* SlasherSmile: He sports an absolutely ''savage'' one after Buggy decides to cut loose. The resulting clash causes the battlefield around them to explode.
* OddFriendship:
** During the events of Enies Lobby, he goes to find Whitebeard to ensure he doesn't also go on a rampage, thus necessitating him having to get involved. He not only succeeds but finds a new drinking partner.
** Likewise, the one he has with Shanks as in canon.
* SinkOrSwimMentor: He hasn't even officially become Zoro's mentor yet and already shows shades of this. After Zoro manages to (partially) cut in half a marine battleship during the Enies Lobby arc, he's disappointed to learn that Zoro cut something he wasn't supposed to (the sea and the sky) and only praises him once he hears Zoro's own disappointment over it.
* VillainRespect: On top of his canonical respect for Zoro and Luffy, it seems he has come to respect all of the Straw Hats and their combat abilities. When Zoro lands on Kuraigana Island, he sees that Mihawk has deliberately set up Visual Transponder Snails all around the island so the Humandrills can learn and imitate the crew's fighting techniques.

!!"Heavenly Demon" Donquixote Doflamingo
The king of Dressrosa and captain of the Donquixote Pirates, a perpetually grinning man with a bottomless thirst for power, glory, cruelty, and destruction.
----
* BringIt: He essentially does the same thing Mihawk did to Zoro, although in a much crueler and sadistic fashion. After sparing the Straw Hats after the attack on the Human Auction House, he leaves behind a message: "Don't leave me hanging", which Luffy realizes is a challenge for them to get strong enough to challenge him, since he could have easily killed the crew, and has now made painfully aware just how much more difficult the New World is going to be.
* EvilLaugh: ''"Fufufufufu!"''
* FateWorseThanDeath: He tells the members of his Famiglia currently with him in Chapter 69 that with the slave market all but finished, he will need to focus on [=SMILEs=] and fill the void of slaves with ''Dressrosa's Toys'', dooming god-knows how many innocent people to Sugar's power and having their lives and memories wiped from everyone in the world.
* HeadsOrTails: In the same conversation, he mentions his decision over what to do with the Straw Hats in the Auction House practically amounted to this. Heads, he would have ordered the attack on them. Tails, he leaves them alone. It came up tails. His crew members who are present are shocked at this.
* TheHyena: The SBS amuses him greatly, even after Cross publicly disrespects him during one broadcast. When Saint Charloss does a live interview during the Sabaody Archipelago arc, Doflamingo is driven to [[LaughThemselvesSick literal tears because he's laughing so hard]].
* {{Jerkass}}: The nice thing he does for Christmas? Slightly better gruel for the Colosseum gladiators.
* KickTheDog: Once he decides to try and take a shot at Luffy, he gleefully says to his face that he wants to break the Straw Hat captain the same way he broke Cross's will to live. It takes all of Luffy's willpower to avoid taking the bait and attacking him in fury; it's only after noticing Cross himself is suffering a panic attack just by proximity that Luffy calms down and settles for driving him off with a specialized plastique bomb with one of Billy's supercharged feathers in it. Furious, Doflamingo tries to retaliate by readying an attack that would have cut off one of Luffy's legs, only to be stopped by Boa Hancock.
* PeoplePuppets: His String-String fruit allows him to control others like marionettes. He showed it, despite not being anywhere ''near'' the Auction House, by controlling the Auction's guards to fight beyond the point of exhaustion, and even the assembled Straw Hats and Supernovas until Rayleigh intervened.
** He even does this to Cross at one point, sending him into a HeroicBSOD by stringing him up using his Devil Fruit powers and pumping Cross with Conqueror's Haki, traumatizing Cross badly enough that he can't even ''think'' until Rayleigh snaps him out of it.
* ShutUpHannibal: On the receiving end when he tries calling into the SBS, on account of Cross hanging up on him. Cross makes a point of never letting the guy get a word in edgewise because of his tendency to twist whatever he gets involved with.
* TheDreaded: He has slowly become this to Cross after the latter was temporarily turned into his puppet. Just hearing his voice is enough to send Cross into a panic attack.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: One of his strings finds its way into Whitebeard's hands. Mistakes have been made indeed.
* VillainRespect: He greatly enjoys the SBS, stating that even though they’re upstarts, the Straw Hats are keeping the world too amusing for him to dislike them.
-->'''Upon hearing that Soundbite has awakened his Devil Fruit''': ''FORGET THE ERA OF ROGER, AND FORGET THE ERA OF SMILES ITSELF! THE ONLY THING I WANT TO SEE IN THIS WORLD IS THE SHEER MADNESS THAT WILL ARISE FROM THE ERA OF THE STRAW HAT PIRATES! FUFFUFFUFFUFFUFFUUU!''
** He owes Cross a debt for letting him finally speak on the SBS during Marineford Misery.
* XanatosGambit: He set up a trap for the Straw Hats at Sabaody first by baiting the World Noble Charloss into a confrontation with some of their allies, forcing Cross to bail them out by guest-starring him on the SBS, which fortunately Charloss turns out to be a fan of. Unfortunately, the world-wide broadcast of the World Noble's complete disregard for anyone below them serves to be the final straw for the Five Elder Stars, who now fully expect a direct attack against a World Noble is not far off and dispatch a practical Buster Call's worth of Marines and Admiral Kizaru on standby to demolish them the moment it happens. Doflamingo then has his band kidnap Keimi at the same time the rest of the gang is tied up dealing with the World Noble, and leaving one of his crew members to deal with them at the Human Auction House once they take the bait, setting up the possibility of Luffy punching Charloss like in canon. Whatever he has planned, he sees two possible outcomes: Either the Straw Hats end up completely slaughtered, and the world falls to pieces at losing some of their greatest heroes, or the Straw Hats survive by the skin of their teeth and go on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge, tearing the world apart just to get to him. Either way, the world will be turned completely upside-down, just the way he wants it.

!!"The Tyrant" Bartholomew Kuma
A high-ranking member of the Revolutionary Army. In the past, he built a reputation of cruelty beyond measure. In the present, he is a powerful cyborg that serves the Government with ostensible loyalty.
----
* ArmorPiercingQuestion: After he gives Cross a ForYourOwnGood speech in Chapter 70, he gives one of these that leaves Cross speechless.
-->'''Kuma:''' Do you believe, fully and completely, that all of you as you are can survive a war between the most powerful forces in the world, and then proceed to the Emperors’ domain and successfully claim Roger’s throne?
* BlowYouAway: Kuma's powers allow him to push the air at incredible speeds to attack (or to send himself flying) and compress it into a bomb for his Ursa Shock attack.
* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: By the time he arrives in Thriller Bark, his conversion into the first Pacifista is already well underway, but he still keeps his conscience for now.
* ForYourOwnGood: He appears before Cross alone in Chapter 70, tells him extremely bluntly that the Straw Hats will get scattered across the world by lampshading this trope, that they ''lucked'' out at Enies simply due to its lax security and only having [=CP9=] as a challenger, whereas the other two main Marine strongholds are far better guarded and that Marineford itself is preparing itself for the inevitable arrival of the Whitebeard Pirates, surmises that whatever plan Cross will have in a misguided attempt to save Ace will result in at least one fatality and that it would all be on Cross's head for even suggesting such a plan of action. He ends it with the ArmorPiercingQuestion above, leaving Cross speechless and finishes with telling him to prepare the crew for their separation at sunset.
* ImplacableMan: As per canon, Cross fears the guy due to his skills and toughness. His only strategy against him? "Put our heads between our legs and kiss our asses goodbye."
* PowerPalms: The Paw-Paw Fruit gives him the power to repel, deflect, or otherwise 'push' anything that they touch. In this story, they allowed him to push out the sedative that was applied to Moria and into both Luffy and Cross to capture them. He then transfers both their combined pain into Zoro and Nami to test their resolve in sacrificing themselves for their crewmates. Cross also informs the crew that he can push himself or others any distance he wants with them.
* SpannerInTheWorks: He was responsible for waking up Moria despite the heavy sedative, causing him to [[VillainousBSOD go ballistic]] and [[PowerBornOfMadness Awaken his Devil Fruit.]]
* XanatosGambit: Kuma's choice of training ground for Cross is different from the other Straw Hats to give Luffy an advantage no matter the outcome. Cross paints a massive bullseye on Luffy's back and Kuma isn't certain they can survive that much attention in the New World. So Kuma sent Cross to the Seventh Hell, Serpent, a training ground he wasn't sure Cross could survive. Either Cross exceeds his expectations and proves he can survive the chaos he's bred in the world, or he would die and Luffy would have far less of a burden on his road to the One Piece without the SBS to draw the world's ire.

!!"Knight of the Sea" Jinbe
A whale shark fishman and captain of the Sun Pirates, a crew of fishman partially composed of former slaves of the World Nobles. Stern and ruthlessly powerful, but ultimately kind and just.
----
* TheDreaded: All former Sun Pirates fear his wrath. Cases in point:
** Arlong tolerated Nezumi since he could contact Jinbe at any time and his Empire would cease to exist.
** Chew and Kuroobi must remain loyal employees in Takoyaki 8 or else he will re-incarcerate them.
** The Macro Pirates [[FateWorseThanDeath prefer death over facing him]].
** The Sun Pirates are not the only ones Jinbe absolutely terrifies. Cross's reaction to Jinbe pulling his RightBehindMe moment? Sheer raw hot white terror at the notion of angering the Fishman due to the fact that even with all the levels of badass the Straw Hats have taken in advance, Cross is absolutely sure Jimbei is still powerful enough to casually beat the whole crew in a CurbStompBattle.
** And later on while on Level 6 in Impel Down itself the implied threat that he could free himself from his bonds at any moment proceeds to not only silence Shiki's SmugSnake bravado real quick but every other prisoner in Level 6 shuts their mouth and heckling out of sheer fear in record time. It only lasts a few seconds, but still.
* ImpliedDeathThreat: After hearing Cross's claim that Hody Jones was responsible for Queen Otohime's death, Jinbe demands to hear Cross's evidence while he considers just how high Cross's ''bounty'' is.
* PunctuatedForEmphasis: While trying to meditate in Impel Down, Jinbe demands that Shiki be quiet before he goes over and shuts him up. When he boasts that Jinbe can't do anything for being chained as well, Jinbe jerks enough to wrench part of his restraints free and repeats himself.
-->'''Jinbe:''' ''Be. Quiet.'' I'm trying to meditate.
* RightBehindMe: Was in the water beside the Sunny listening in on Cross while he was berating Chew and Kuroobi and only reacted and came aboard once Cross inadvertently reveals Hody Jones was Queen Otohime's murderer.
* TearsOfJoy: After hearing a fishman girl, after listening to the SBS, ask if "hate for hate's sake" was stupid. He agrees with her with these in his eyes.
* ThisCannotBe: Reacts this way to the "Hody Jones killed Otohime" revelation. It takes a careful explanation from Cross and his friends, along with Megalo's confession as a witness to the crime, to finally make him realize that what happened was true.

!!"Umbral Allfather" Gecko Moria
Master of Thriller Bark and the wielder of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit, a New World veteran who fled the sea after losing his crew to the Emperor Kaido. Following his defeat in Thriller Bark, he was stripped of his rank and ultimately replaced by his former subordinate, "Hellbeast Princess" Perona.
----
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: In canon, Gecko Moria's losing a previous crew to Kaido is mentioned only in passing and with very few details, especially from the perspective of the Straw Hats. Here, the impact of that horrible fate is given much more emphasis on how it shaped and continues to shape Moria's psychology, and the crew get a much clearer understanding of what happened to Moria.
* AdaptationalBadass: Moria was a pretty powerful fighter in canon, even after having gotten fat and lazy, but ''this'' Moria is far worse. For starters, he Awakens his Devil Fruit, and basically makes his canon self look weak as a kitten.
* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: Similar to how canon!Moria was able to use ''Shadow's Asgard'' to grow into a gargantuan, bloated version of himself, Moria uses his post-Awakening Shadow-Shadow Fruit powers to transform into a giant version of himself easily the same size as Oars.
* CastingAShadow: His Shadow-Shadow Fruit allows him to shape and manipulate shadows, including creating zombie slaves by implanting human shadows into corpses, and creating a shadowy doppelganger ("Doppelman") as an indestructible, super-fast, shapeshifting minion, with whom he can also trade places in an instant. After Awakening it, he gains even more manipulatory abilities, including creating illusions, producing multiple Doppelmen, and creating ''draugr'', which are zombies that use the shadows of inanimate objects and so, whilst more DumbMuscle than "ordinary" zombies, are also far more savage and destructive.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: His beloved crew were brutally killed by Kaido, a rival pirate who outclassed Moria and his friends so vastly that they never stood a chance--Moria only survived because Kaido decided to maim him and then let him live ForTheLulz. For years, he's festered on the memories of that terrible day, sanity slowly degrading until all he's been left with is the memory of the sheer horror of that day; he doesn't even remember who his crew ''were'' anymore, only that they all died horribly.
* EnlightenmentSuperpowers: After he wakes up, he finds out that while he was asleep, the Straw Hats snuck onto Thriller Bark, decimated his army and subordinates, and ruined all of his work from the last decade. He promptly Awakens his Devil Fruit. Cue MassOhCrap.
* EvilLaugh: ''"Kishishishi!"''
* FreudianExcuse: Invoked and Deconstructed. Whilst the Straw Hats are horrified and even [[SympathyForTheDevil kind of sympathetic]] when they learn that not only was Moria the only survivor of his crew when Kaido massacred them, but his mind has so warped by the horror of what he underwent that he can no longer even remember his crew by anything other than their last words and how they looked when he found them dead, they also call Moria out that [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse his reaction to his trauma is far beyond the excuse he uses to justify it]].
* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: Noted by the crew and lampshaded by Luffy during the end of their fight. It isn't just his strength that has degraded over the years -- Moria himself has completely lost sight of why he's even sailing anymore. Losing his beloved crew to Kaido and failing for years to mourn them and move on from their deaths properly have left him little more than a husk whose mind has warped the worst memory of his life into a nightmare straight out of hell, and driven towards achieving one aim (revenge on Kaido), as if it will end the emotional torture he's been enduring for so long, not unlike what happened to Baron Omatsuri. Even the Straw Hats come to pity him when they realize what's happened to him over the years. When Luffy calls him a "shadow" of his former self, what defeats the IncrediblyLamePun is the fact that it is ''painfully'' true.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: A variant, rather: Nicknamed by the Adaptation. Canon!Moria is the only Warlord whose epithet has yet to be revealed. Here, he's given the title of "Umbral Allfather", referencing Odin the Allfather; fitting into his Norse mythology theming Post-Awakening.
* NeverFoundTheBody: In the aftermath of Thriller Bark, despite being beaten within an inch of his life, there's not a trace of Moria left on the island. There has been no indication yet of whether HesJustHiding or it's a case of DeathByAdaptation.
* OneWingedAngel: As in the canon, Moria uses his Shadow-Shadow Fruit to try and manipulate himself into a more powerful form. Whereas canon!Moria took on the form of a gargantuan, green-skinned and bloated version of himself called ''Shadow's Asgard'', here Moria attempts to warp himself into the shape of a monstrous dragon named ''Nidhogg'', in imitation of Kaido's own draconic alternate form. [[TransformationHorror Emphasis on]] '''[[TransformationHorror attempts]]'''.
* PowerBornOfMadness: Two-fold:
** Firstly, it's Moria's SanitySlippage that causes him to Awaken his Devil Fruit, gaining access to its increased arsenal of abilities.
** Secondly, as Soundbite points out, Moria is actually using ''way'' more power than somebody newly Awakened to their Devil Fruit's full potential should be able to, eventually deducing that Moria has gone so crazy he's able to temporarily push himself past his limits... though that state won't last for long.
* RealityEnsues: Invoked in-universe; Moria's SanitySlippage was able to help him push past the strain and fatigue of using his newly Awakened Devil Fruit to a high level initially, but the body can only be pushed so far for so long. Sure enough, even Moria's craziness-induced obliviousness to pain and fatigue ultimately fails to keep him fighting.
** Additionally, the fact Moria is absolutely out of his ''mind'' with rage, despair and terror means he wastes a lot of his new power acting in a crazy manner, instead of using precisely controlled force to annihilate the Straw Hats.
* ReligiousAndMythologicalThemeNaming: After his Devil Fruit Awakens, Moria's attacks are named and/or shaped after figures in Norse Mythology. His new zombies, filled with the shadows of inert objects, are ''draugr'', the Draugr!Oars is called a ''Jotun,'' and Moria himself transforms into ''[[OneWingedAngel Nidhogg]]'' towards the end of the battle.
* SoleSurvivor: Moria's traumatic backstory involves being this after Kaido massacred his crew for laughs.
* TookALevelInBadass: Moria manages to Awaken his Devil Fruit through sheer mental trauma, which results in a drastic in-universe upgrade to his powers.
* TransformationHorror: Moria tries to turn himself into a dragon with "Nidhogg," feeding his shadow other shadows and then reshaping itself, thus him, with Shadow Revolution. The emphasis is on "tried." The sounds Moria's body makes when undergoing the transformation are nauseating. When Cross gets a peek at Moria, he nearly vomits on the spot noting that the result can't be called human ''or'' dragon. Chopper himself is horrified at the amount of physical trauma the Warlord put himself through.
* TraumaticSuperpowerAwakening: The reason why Moria Awakens his Devil Fruit here when he didn't in canon; canon!Moria was awake and aware all throughout the Straw Hats' initial attack on Thriller Bark, so he (wrongfully) felt in-control during the whole situation. Here, Moria wakes up from an ordinary sleep to find his crew essentially annihilated, which is not only a huge shock in its own right, but also extremely reminiscent of Moria's greatest tragedy. This pushes him over the edge in a single massive rush of fear, despair and rage, and the resultant madness allows him to Awaken.
* {{Trigger}}: In-universe, awakening to find his entire "crew" of zombie slaves ''and'' his few loyal living henchmen have been all wiped out is so much like when Kaido massacred his original crew that it forcibly draws Moria's memories back to that original massacre, causing him to '''snap'''.
* VillainousBreakdown: At first, it looks like he's going down this route when he wakes up. [[OhCrap Then he Awakens his Devil Fruit]] and goes LaughingMad. The following fight shows that Moria has gone genuinely insane and too overcome with rage to fight properly, which is about the only thing allowing the crew any leeway in the battle.
* VillainousBSOD: He wakes up from an artificially enhanced slumber (courtesy of Kuma) to find that the zombie army he has spent years building has been decimated, and the "Ultimate Zombie" superweapon he had pinned all of his hopes and dreams on for finally avenging himself against Kaido has been completely destroyed, to the point that not even Dr. Hogback has a hope of reconstructing it. These would be traumatic enough, but Moria also instinctively likens this situation to when he lost his original crew, with the two traumas correlating enough that he ''completely and utterly'' '''loses his ''mind''!'''
* WeakButSkilled: While he's stated to be the weakest of the Seven Warlords in a direct battle, and has lost a lot of his former strength from his prime (he was once capable of fighting ''Kaido''), he's stated to have tactical skills rivaling those of Crocodile. But after his Devil Fruit Awakens, he's suddenly a '''lot''' more dangerous.

!!"Blackbeard" Marshall D. Teach
Wielder of the Dark-Dark Fruit and traitor of the Whitebeard Pirates. Teach plans to rise as a Warlord of the Seas in a path to become King of the Pirates.
----
* CatchAndReturn: Played with. His "Darkness" allows him to trap anything near him and be able to send it back out when he wants to (or as long as his concentration isn't interrupted). He used this to capture everyone during the Banaro Island fight with Ace when Aokiji used his Ice Age and to hold Magellan's deadly toxic attacks after beating him to kill the World Pirates with them.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Teach explains to Aokiji that he's no stranger to pain. He compares the pain of nearly freezing to death with being burned alive, flayed by razor wire, and shot with a Colt .96 sniper rifle.
* {{Determinator}}: No matter how much pain Teach has to go through, he swears he can and ''will'' take it all for the sake of his dream. He proves it after surviving Aokiji's ice, keeping his frozen crew and prisoners in his darkness which aggravated the cold in him.
* TheDreaded: Of all the foes Cross knows the Straw Hats will end up fighting, he's openly ''terrified'' of Blackbeard and all that he can do.
* EvilLaugh: ''"Zehahahaha!"''
* {{Fingore}}: According to Aokiji, his ship's doctor had to reattach ''twelve'' of Teach's digits due to severe frostbite.
* IOweYouMyLife: Teach would have lost and died to Ace and his alliance had Aokiji's Ice Age not intervened. He considers the admiral his friend for life now, despite Aokiji's blatant disgust at the idea.

!!"Hellbeast Princess" Perona

[[/folder]]

[[folder:Serra]]
!!Serra

An OriginalCharacter, Conis's mother, and a former member of the Roger Pirates before their disbanding. She left Skypiea when Conis was much younger to sail the Blue Sea, inspiring her daughter Conis many years later to do the same with a different crew.
----

* BerserkButton: Downplayed overall, but a good way to send her into a TranquilFury is to insult or disparage her love for Conis and Pagaya.
* CanonMarchesOn: Is said to have set off with the Roger Pirates 20 years before the story takes place, when Conis was 4 years old. The year after her introduction, the One Piece Vivre Card databooks established Conis as 19 pre-timeskip. Two years after that, we learned that Roger visited Skypiea a year before he does in ''This Bites!'' The authors edited and retconned the backstory to accommodate this, instead having her set off with Roger while she was still engaged to Pagaya, return to the White-White Sea four years later, and leave again a few years later for her own journey.
* CuteBruiser: Like Conis, her strength effectively quadrupled when she left the White Sea thanks to all the extra oxygen at sea level.
* TheGhost: She has yet to appear in the main storyline, save in the "Crossing the Rainbow Mist" special.
* LikeMotherLikeDaughter: Conis is similar to her in many ways, judging by her reaction when the two met in the "Crossing the Rainbow Mists" chapter.
* OddFriendship: Develops this with Vivi's mother, Nefertari Titi.
* ParasolOfPain: Instead of guns like Conis, her WeaponOfChoice (from what we know) seems to be a parasol/umbrella.
* ShoutOut: Presumably named after Serra, the [[TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering Planeswalker]] famous for creating a realm filled with angels.
* VillainRespect: Shiki respects her on the way she fought alongside the Roger Pirates.

[[folder:Squard and Whitey Bay]]
!! "Ice Witch" Whitey Bay and "Whirlpool Spider" Squard

Two of Whitebeard's subordinate captains, who decide to help Ace after Cross convinces him to enlist aid in going after Blackbeard. They are captured alongside Ace when Aokiji freezes the battlefield and accidentally gives Teach an opening to bring them into the Darkness of the Dark-Dark Fruit.
----

* AnIcePerson: After she's freed from Level Six, Whitey Bay kills Madame Hiruno to gain the Cold-Cold Fruit, in order to ensure she won't be beaten by "her own element" a second time.
* BadassInDistress: They're captured by Blackbeard and then thrown into Impel Down alongside Ace.
* PowerIncontinence: Whitey has decent control over her new powers for someone who has just eaten her fruit, but that's not saying much. She frequently sticks her hands on her face with impromptu freezing and tends to use her powers far more freely than she should during moments where she shouldn't need to use them at all. At one point Crocodile even snaps at her being so wasteful with them.
* SinsOfTheFather: Squard has this attitude - which Ace takes great offense to. By the time of the Summit War, however, he seems to have started working through it.

[[folder:Supernovas]]
!!Supernovas

A term used for any rookie pirate whose bounty has exceeded ฿100,000,000. The current generation has produced an unprecedented thirteen Supernovas. (Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, and Nami are in their respective folders under "Straw Hat Pirates")
----

!!Eustass "Captain" Kid - Bounty: ฿400,000,000
An infamous punk-styled man from the South Blue.
----

* AxCrazy: He achieved his bounty through sheer brutality, racking up a massive body count.
* ButtMonkey: Despite having the second-highest bounty of the Supernovas and his AxCrazy personality, the other Supernovas and their crews don't fear him, nor do they show him much respect. They even give him the AndZoidberg treatment when they're feeling cheeky. Though it may be ''because'' of his high standing, the better to show that they don't consider him more than an equal if that.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Kid is a complete {{Jerkass}} with very few redeeming qualities, but he harshly disagrees with Shiki's speech in the Strong World arc; more specifically, the notion that the weak should bow to the strong simply because they are strong. While Kid does agree with the idea of MightMakesRight, he believes the strong have to ''earn'' the respect of allies and enemies, and that those who demand respect without earning it only want mindless sheep.
* GoryDiscretionShot: InUniverse example. During the Supernovas' assault on the marine blockade separating them from Sabaody, he and his crew get particularly...''creative'' with their attacks on the hostile privateers, forcing Cross and Soundbite to blur their actions during the broadcast. For reference, whatever they were doing was apparently illegal to show in at least 153 of the nations that were part of the World Government at the start of the story. At one point, Cross had to go offscreen to vomit because he was so horrified and disgusted by what he saw.
* {{Hypocrite}}: He insults Merry and other child members on the principle that 'little girls' shouldn't be part of a pirate crew, despite having a child on ''his'' crew. He justifies it by saying that Adelle is supposed to stay out of the action and he only keeps her around because of her engineering skills and her BadassNormal brother.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: For a given measure of "hero" anyway: His crew, instead of the Straw Hats, were the ones involved in ''Anime/DeadEndAdventure''.
* MagnetismManipulation: The power of his Devil Fruit.
* MightMakesRight: Genuinely believes this, but also played with in that he doesn't think the weak should just roll over and take it either. In his eyes, ''everything'' gained through strength is earned. Spoils, allies, and enemies alike.
* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: Cross gives him this treatment thanks to his {{Jerkass}} attitude during Skelter Bite. Especially when setting up the BarBrawl.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Again with the term "hero" used lightly: if it wasn't for him and his crew attacking Blackarm Island and reaffirming the head instructor's hatred of pirates, the New World Masons could've gotten another executive.
* NoodleImplements: He did ''something'' involving a potato peeler and a corkscrew that jumped his bounty to ฿110,000,000 shortly before the Straw Hats left Little Garden.
* NoodleIncident: He was involved in the [[Anime/DeadEndAdventure Dead End Adventure]] and has [[AscendedExtra Biera & the Bascùd siblings Shuraiya and Adelle]] as part of his crew.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: On one side, he doesn't like the idea of working alongside Cross or other pirate crews, but does so thanks to Cross's plan on how easy and profitable robbing slavers can be. On the other side, Cross considers him a literal monster and would like nothing more than to see him dead but [[CantKillYouStillNeedYou realizes even a violent jerk like him can still be useful if properly directed and motivated.]] He even acknowledges that he sees Kid the same way the World Government sees Akainu: Someone they would like nothing more than to put away for their rampant destructiveness, but also someone with strength too important to get rid of.
* VillainRespect: Has nothing but respect for Luffy and his crew, calling the Straw Hat Pirates the gold standard of their generation.

!!Capone "Gang" Bege - Bounty: ฿277,000,000
A Mafia boss turned pirate from the West Blue. He consumed the Castle-Castle Fruit, which gives him the ability to turn his body into a living fortress.
----

* RefugeInAudacity: After finding out Nami attempted to pickpocket him, [[YouGotGuts he compliments her moxie]] and invites her inside himself to see the Fort Lumose horde and his other trophies, confident that stealing anything will be impossible. When Nami says that that sounds like a challenge, he confirms that it was.
* SignatureLaugh: ''"Gehgehgehgeh!"''
* VillainRespect:
** Thanks to the SBS of the invasion of Enies Lobby inspiring him to rob the in-universe version of Fort Knox and getting away with a quarter of the Marine's liquid assets, he admits that he owes a debt to the Straw Hat Pirates.
** He later tips his hat to Nami who, against all odds, managed to steal a single Beri from him while inside his body.

!!"Red Flag" X Drake - Bounty: ฿266,000,000
A stoic "former" Marine Rear Admiral empowered by an ancient Zoan fruit that turns him into an Allosaurus. Beyond that, not much is known about this powerful pirate.
----

* EnemyMine: He allied with Basil Hawkins to fight Gecko Moria.
* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: His Ancient Zoan Fruit power allows him to turn into an Allosaurus (though Cross misidentifies it as a tyrannosaurus, which admittedly is an easy mistake to make), which he uses to stand equally with Funkfreed and Urouge in the bar brawl.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: After getting fed up with allying with the Straw Hats from suffering the wrong end of a Curb Stomp from Kizaru, he vehemently declares he's done helping them, and is looking fit to tear them a new one, until he's met with a mass DeathGlare from the Straw Hat crew, who have just learned that Ace has been captured and set to be executed. Realizing they were in the same murderous mood they were in when they faced Shiki, he just quietly walks away.
* SideBet: Won one amongst his fellow Supernovas in that Cross and Apoo's rivalry over the SBS was all an act since as a former Marine, he figured that Vegapunk's creations couldn't be hacked that easily.
* VillainRespect: When the Straw Hats are broadcasting their performance of ''Bink's Brew'', Drake grumbles to himself that they're just more pirates... who are making it very hard for him ''not'' to respect them.

!!"The Glutton" Jewelry Bonney - ฿235,000,000
A mysterious woman with an unnamed Devil Fruit ability to change the age of anyone she touches. Also known as a BigEater.
----

* BigEater: It's all in her epithet, and Cross explicitly says that her appetite rivals Luffy's.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: After taking over said Marine base, it should be repeated, she uses a Transponder Snail to ''mock an already-enraged Sengoku.''
* EnemyMine: She raids a Marine Base alongside Trafalgar Law. They then play Jenga using Marines in place of sticks.
* EvilGloating: After taking over a Marine Base, she calls Sengoku on one of its snails ''just'' to rub it in his face. And, as shown by the following quote she was also planning on doing the same to Admiral Akainu, had he not been already deployed by the Five Elder Stars to hunt down Bartolomeo.
-->''"I've wanted to tell that golden bastard [Sengoku] to fuck off for ye-e-eaaars, hahaha! The only way that could have been better, the only way, would have been if that damn volcanic mutt had been there too, because then my year would be utterly made!"''
* KickChick: If her fighting during the BarBrawl on Skelter Bite is any indication, and she's able to use it to match Franky's boxing.
* SignatureLaugh: ''"Zazazaza!"''

!!"Mad Monk" Urouge - Bounty: ฿186,000,000
A fallen monk from a Sky Island, possibly Bilka, who still holds to his former teachings despite turning pirate.
----

* AnimalCompanion: Confides in Nami and Conis that, having been inspired by the Straw Hats, he's been looking for one of these to add to his crew, but hasn't found one that can keep up with him yet.
* TheBigGuy: He is the largest Supernova.
* {{Manchild}}: Nami and Conis meet him in Skelter Bite and realize much to their exasperation that he is an overgrown kid.
* NoodleIncident: What he ''did'' at Kyuka Island managed to give shivers to the ''entire Navy''.
* NunTooHoly: For a supposed fallen monk, whatever he got up to at Kyuka Island gave the Marines the shivers and Vivi a {{Nosebleed}}. [[note]]In Oda's actual SBS, when he listed the hobbies of the Worst Generation, one of Urouge's was lovemaking.[[/note]]

!!"Massacre Soldier" Killer - Bounty: ฿100,000,000
Eustass Kid's level-headed first mate. Outside the Straw Hats, he is the only Supernova to serve under another Supernova and to not show any signs of having a Devil Fruit.
----
* BladeBelowTheShoulder: Has two arm-scythes as his WeaponOfChoice.
* ChairmanOfTheBrawl: He is the recipient of a chair across the face courtesy of Cross to begin the Supernova BarBrawl. Naturally, during said brawl, he guns for the third mate's hide.
* NotSoDifferent: Has a moment like this with Gin in Skelter Bite.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: A preemptive one during "Strong World," when he contemplates the inevitable meeting of his captain and Cross and "the fallout that would come of it" and lets out a miserable groan of "Oh, ''God help me''…"

!!"The Magician" Basil Hawkins - Bounty: ฿288,000,000
A stoic man from West Blue who ate the Straw-Straw Fruit and wields what seems to be real magic.
----
* EnemyMine: He allied with Drake to fight Gecko Moria.
* HeroOfAnotherStory: He was involved in the events of [[Anime/TheCursedHolySword Asuka Island]] and managed to obtain [[EvilWeapon Shichiseiken]] itself as a "crew member."
* NotSoStoic: His reaction to the Gaon Cannon.
* TarotTroubles: Every scene up to Skelter Bite has involved him doing a tarot reading and a few after as well.

[[folder:Shiki]]
!! Shiki "The Golden Lion" - Bounty: Unknown

Captain of the Golden Lion Pirates and one of Gol D. Roger's contemporaries/rivals. He once amassed a large navy with the purpose of world domination. His dreams were dashed as he ended up defeated by Roger, captured by Sengoku and Garp, and sent to Impel Down. Two years after the Great Pirate era began, he cut off his legs to escape the jail and spent the next 20 years planning his ultimate revenge.
----

* AnArmAndALeg: Severed both his legs to break out of Impel Down and [[ArtificialLimbs replaced them with his two Graded Swords, Oto and Kogarashi]].
** Then, during his final clash with Luffy and Bartolomeo, he tears his swords from his legs to wield them with his hands once again.
* ArchEnemy:
** Gold Roger. All of Shiki's actions during ''Strong World'', including the very plan he had been crafting together for the last twenty years, is driven by his lingering grudge against the Pirate King. During his final battle with Luffy, he even starts ranting about how he can't lose to Roger ''again''.
** The Straw Hat Pirates, ''especially'' Luffy and Nami. The latter for her constant betrayals and outwitting him time and again, and the former for his many, ''many'' similarities to Roger (Shiki even started hallucinating Luffy as Roger towards the end of their final fight, helped by the actual Roger's voice taunting him through Soundbite). When he wakes up after his defeat, he even starts planning his revenge on Luffy before getting knocked out by Hancock.
* BeyondTheImpossible: However the hell he managed to get a box containing a Visual Transponder Snail delivered to Level 6 of Impel Down and bolted to the floor so it couldn't be removed.
* CigarChomper: Always seen with one in his mouth.
* CriticalResearchFailure: InUniverse example. He recruited Bartolomeo as the 51st division commander in his army, ostensibly on reputation alone. (Un)fortunately, Bartolomeo is ''also'' from East Blue, still has friends, family, and territory there, and is thus completely unwilling to aid Shiki in his plan. Instead, he uses the invitation as an opportunity to infiltrate Shiki's operation to both aid the Straw Hats and feed information back to the New World Masons. When Bartolomeo inevitably reveals himself to Shiki in the climax of the arc, he makes sure to rub that little tidbit into the bastard's face.
* DehumanizingInsult: When he appears at the end of Chapter 56, he calls both Nami and Billy his '''property''' and demands the Straw Hats give them back. Naturally, their reaction is ''[[BerserkButton murderous rage]]''.
* DishingOutDirt: His Lion's Threat attacks involve breaking pieces of the ground, suspending them in the air, and lobbing them at his targets. His Earth's Bind variation involves crushing the pieces to rain debris on the target, sucking in said debris and targets in a vortex, and finally [[BuriedAlive compacting the crushed ground into a single pillar that traps and suffocates the enemy]].
* EvilGloating: First shows up at Marineford to grandstand before Sengoku and Garp before going after the Straw Hats.
** Later on, he delivers Visual Transponder Snails to nearly every island in the world (or at least a great deal of them) so that he can make everyone watch him destroying the East Blue and defeating the Straw Hat Pirates. It backfires.
* FantasticRacism: Hates everything about the East Blue, from being Roger's birthplace (as he stopped his plans of world domination) to his place of execution (Shiki considers it an insult for Roger to executed in a peaceful area like Loguetown), hence why he wants to annihilate it before he conquers the world. It's also a big reason why he deliberately targeted the Straw Hats -- he can't stand the fact that the most famous pirate crew in the world originated from the object of his hatred.
* HistoryRepeats: Over twenty years ago, his plans for world domination were ruined at the hands of a man from East Blue: the Pirate King Gold Roger. ''Strong World'' sees it happen again, with Roger's fated successor, Monkey D. Luffy, and this time, the entire world gets to see it.
* HopelessBossFight: He [[CurbstompBattle utterly defeats the Straw Hats]] with his [[SpecialAttack Lion's Threat:]] [[DishingOutDirt Earth's]] [[BuriedAlive Bind]] when he recaptures Nami.
* HonorBeforeReason: The only reason why he doesn't use Haki against Luffy and Barto in their final battle. He missed his chance to use it against them when he first met them and then again during the HopelessBossFight above. To end up using it in the middle of the battle when he's losing is conceding, in his mind, that the two Rookies from "the weakest sea" are too strong for him to defeat, which goes against everything he stands for.
* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: Tellingly, Luffy utterly ignores him in Level Six.
** Gairam also mocks him by pointing out that Shiki' sole remaining achievement, breaking out of Impel Down has been outdone by Luffy a thousand times over. Shiki is reduced to screaming in rage.
* LaughablyEvil: Despite all the despicable things he does, he sometimes comes off as eccentric, ranging from his dance routines to random moments of senility (shown with Perona and Scarlet).
* ManBehindTheMan: He was responsible for giving the Amigo Pirates [[SuperSerum Booster IQ]] and was the reason why Largo risked everything to fight the Straw Hats in Little East Blue.
* ManipulativeBastard: Shows up on the Sunny and befriends the crew, only to later kidnap Nami for her navigational skills and steal the Snail Transceiver to get better use of it.
* MaskOfSanity: According to Silvers Rayleigh, Shiki went insane when Roger died by a hand that wasn't his. He's just been able to hide it over the last twenty years, aided by him going completely underground during that time. Going LaughingMad while the entire world is watching isn't Shiki snapping so much as his mask coming off for everyone to see.
* MassOhCrap: He's the cause of it when anyone realizes that ''he's'' the guest the Straw Hats are with and from no less than one of the Yonko (Shanks), two Legendary Marines (Tsuru and Garp), and the Fleet Admiral himself (Sengoku).
* MightMakesRight: Deconstructed in the opinion of Eustass Kid while listening to his publicized MotiveRant. While he agrees that the strong survive and have the right to rule, that does ''not'' mean that the weak should just roll over and serve the strong like Shiki does; allies and enemies are earned, not given.
* NoodleIncident: He mentions the last time he used his Lion's Threat: Earth Bind attack was against one of Big Mom's children, though he didn't give a name.
* PowerFloats: His Float-Float Fruit gives him the power to make any non-living object float in the air, no matter how large or heavy it is.
* PlayingWithSyringes: With Dr. Indigo's assistance, he builds an army of genetically enhanced mutant animals to be used as superweapons against the World Government and the world itself at large.
* RageBreakingPoint: Played with as he is the ''source'' for the Straw Hat Pirates after kidnapping Nami twice, forcing them to fight against mutant beasts for a straight week and wiping the floor with them. By then, they are not only wishing for his defeat but also his ''death''. Played straight when Shiki sees his 20-year plan crumble by the hands of two Rookie crews from the East Blue and goes all out to destroy them.
* RedRightHand: Aside from his twin sword ArtificialLimbs, he has a steering wheel lodged in his head which came from his fight with Roger.
* SadisticChoice: During the final half of the battle, Shiki forms four lions of different elements from the floating islands and lobs them directly at the Thousand Sunny, forcing Luffy to decide whether to continue fighting Shiki or save his crew. Fortunately for him, the crew is strong enough to stop the lions, freeing Luffy to continue the fight.
* {{Seppuku}}: In an author's note at the end of the first chapter after the ''Strong World'' arc, the Cross-Brain states that they believe Shiki hasn't reappeared in the anime since his movie because he finally lost all will to live after being beaten by yet another East Blue denizen and so he killed himself with his own swords off-screen. In the ''This Bites!'' universe, however, Luffy knocked Shiki's swords away with his sea prism stone-infused pipe before defeating him, so ''this'' Shiki is still alive and has been imprisoned in Impel Down. With notes that he not only can but ''will'' return in the future...
* TakeOverTheWorld: His goal 22 years ago until he fought and lost to Roger. In the present, he still intends to do this, only after [[KillEmAll wiping the East Blue clean of everything]] first.
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: To Roger. Shiki has never gotten over his defeat at Roger's hands, or even the fact that Roger was killed by someone that wasn't him; all of which is the driving force of ''Strong World''.
* VillainousBreakdown: During the climax of ''Strong World'', after the Straw Hats destroy his palace and defeat his army, rendering everything he's worked towards for the last twenty years pointless. It reaches its absolute apex, however, when Luffy is about to attack him with ''Giant Thor Axe'' and he realizes that he's about to lose to a man from the East Blue ''again''.
* YankTheDogsChain: His reason for freeing the captured villagers and allowing them to return home? So he can kill everyone in the village in one single strike with his animal bioweapons to serve as a public demonstration of force to the world.

[[folder:Shakuyaku and Silvers Rayleigh]]
!! Shakuyaku and "Dark King" Silvers Rayleigh - Bounties: Unknown

A pair of retired pirates who live on the Sabaody Archipelago, with Shakuyaku's past as a pirate being unclear, and Rayleigh being the former NumberTwo of Gold Roger, the first Pirate King.
----

* BigDamnHeroes: Rayleigh was apparently getting ready to do this during Strong World, along with Mihawk and Shanks, if the Straw Hats lost to Shiki.
** Slightly subverted in Chapter 69 when he cuts Doflamingo's strings that were controlling everyone in the Auction House to prevent any more damage, although some had already been done.
** Played straight the next chapter when he finally stops Kizaru when he intends to kill everyone that is opposing him.
* LetsGetDangerous: Apparently, the only reason Rayleigh fought Kizaru to a stalemate in canon was because Kizaru was just trying to capture the Straw Hats (and here, the Supernovas). When Kizaru decides he's going to ''kill them'', Rayleigh doesn't hold back and chucks Kizaru all the way to the Five Star Elders' chambers in Mariejois.
* RetiredBadass: Both of them haven't been active pirates in the last 20 years or so, but this doesn't seem to pose a problem for them.

[[folder:Buggy The Clown]]
!! Buggy "the Clown" – Bounty: ฿15,000,000
Wielder of the Chop-Chop Fruit and one of the first adversaries of the Straw Hats, who they met even before the story's beginning. Laughable, looking like a joke, and seemingly harmless due to his bounty, his exterior hides a great many secrets.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: Canon Buggy is a weakling who never lived up to his full potential because he was too lazy to train himself. ''This'' Buggy is a Warlord-class combatant with mastery over Observation (and probably Armament) Haki who deliberately stayed low in East Blue as a 'small-time pirate' because he was flat-out sick of the insanity of the Grand Line after his time on Roger's crew and wanted as much peace and quiet you could get as a pirate without actually retiring. It's strongly implied that this was the real reason he rejected Shanks' offer after Roger died; he knew Shanks had every intention of going back and wanted no part of it.
* AlmightyJanitor: You know how Oda once said that if Buggy bothered to put in the effort, he could easily be on the same level as Shanks? Well, during Marineford, we get to see that ''firsthand''. After his past as a Roger Pirate is exposed to the entire battlefield via Sengoku and Garp, Buggy '''''snaps''''' and goes on a rampage, tearing through marine soldiers like tissue paper and going toe-to-toe with ''Dracule '''freakin'''' Mihawk''.
* AnAxeToGrind: While he's normally a KnifeNut, he makes do with an axe appropriated from a Blugori while in Impel Down.
* BerserkButton: Hypersensitive about his large red nose. Even mishearing that you said something about his nose will have him try to kill you.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Beneath that LaughablyEvil DirtyCoward veneer is an ex-apprentice to the strongest pirate crew to have ever lived. After he decides to cut loose, it's safe to say that no one will ever consider Buggy a joke again.
* CoverBlowingSuperpower: It's revealed in Chapter 76 (Impel Downfall Part 2) that Buggy has Observation Haki. Luffy and Mr. 3, keenly watching Buggy, notice he's moving just slightly before an attack is launched. Buggy explains to 3 that he doesn't want to draw the attention of stronger pirates itching for a fight if he reveals he's above his "weight class".
* DirtyCoward: He acts like this all the time to hide his true strength. In reality, he's only scared of a select few people and is more terrified of having his past revealed and dealing with the subsequent headache it would cause.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: As much as he hates Luffy and the Straw Hats, even he wouldn't wish them getting caught and consumed by Lily Carnation, and tries to get ahold of the SBS to warn them.
** A more positive (and silly) version: Even hating the other side won't stop him from happily singing along to a round of Binks' Brew with them.
* FatalFlaw: His ego and subsequent temper. Buggy spent ''twenty years'' shacking it up in East Blue, pretending to be a weakling, no-name pirate, with a vow to never return to the Grand Line, all so he could have something resembling a normal life again – only to break that promise because he wasn't able to let go of his grudge against Luffy after being beaten by him. Every terrible thing that's happened to him since then, including being incarcerated in Impel Down and having his past as a Roger Pirate exposed, can be traced back to his decision to chase after Luffy, regardless of the consequences.
* {{Foil}}: To Arlong. Both of them are Grand Line Pirates that were slumming it in East Blue, but other than that, they couldn't be more different. Arlong acted tough, but in truth was a DirtyCoward who ran off to the weakest sea to live out his ambitions because he knew he couldn't hack it with the big boys of the Grand Line. Buggy acts like a DirtyCoward, but in reality is one of the strongest pirates on the planet and could easily make it as one of the top dogs of Paradise and even the New World, but willingly chose not to due to being sick of the insanity there, desiring a life of (relative) peace and quiet.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: There are several hints to Buggy's true power level throughout the story. Along with the CoverBlowingSuperpower and the InsistentTerminology, Buggy is one of the only people left standing when Bullet unleashes his Conqueror's Haki in Level 6 during the Impel Downfall arc. More than that, he's the only one Bullet acknowledges besides Luffy, even speaking with the man on even keel. And perhaps the earliest hint of all is when Buggy reveals he once encountered Lily Carnation with one of his previous crews, a crew that he was the SoleSurvivor of – if ''anyone'' could survive and escape that monster, it would certainly be someone with New World-grade strength, and Buggy's ''real'' strength level more than fits the bill.
* HopeSpot: During the Battle of Marineford, he kept acting like a weak coward, hinging on the small, desperate hope that his past as a Roger Pirate wouldn't be exposed. Then Garp recognized him, and it was all downhill from there.
* IAmNotLeftHanded: Buggy didn't spend his time roaming the weakest sea because he was a weakling. He did it because he'd spent his entire youth in the DeathWorld that was the Grand Line and just wanted peace. Moving to the East Blue was like taking early retirement for him. When he finally stops pretending he's a wimp, he shows everybody what being the weakest member of the strongest crew really means.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: Downplayed. While he still enjoys being a pirate, Buggy's core reason for being in East Blue in the fic was the end result of being basically thoroughly ''sick'' of the madness that came with being part of the Roger Pirates and the Grand Line, and ultimately decided that he wanted to leave and be the type of pirate who didn't have to constantly look over his shoulder for the newest ludicrous way in which the New World could kill him. Needless to say, being dragged back into the mess by the exposure of his past [[RageBreakingPoint pushes him over the edge.]]
* ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne: After Luffy wins his surfing contest against Shogun Octavio live on the SBS, he and Alvida express their thoughts at how ridiculous it all was. The Slim-Slim woman makes subtle jabs at the clown over how ridiculous it was a freak lightning storm saved Luffy from his execution in Loguetown, how losing a few freckles make a difference in perceiving beauty, and how a no-name clown-themed pirate from the East Blue managed to survive in the Grand Line for so long. Buggy is immediately peeved at what she called him.
* InsistentTerminology: During the Impel Downfall arc onward, the narrative insists on calling him a "small-time pirate", with quotes. It's both {{foreshadowing}} and reinforcing the fact that Buggy, in truth, is very much ''not'' a "small-time pirate".
* LetsGetDangerous: After being pushed to his RageBreakingPoint during Marineford and being exposed as part of Roger's crew, Buggy decides to show everybody just why he was a Roger Pirate. The result is enough that Mihawk, who barely paid attention to him in canon, is actually ''interested'' in him.
* MrExposition: Tells Luffy that after Cross revealed the interior of Impel Down to everyone, the jailers decided the facility was due for an... ''[[NiceJobBreakingItHero upgrade]]''.
* NoMoreHoldingBackSpeech: After he's revealed to be one of the Roger Pirates to the entirety of Marineford, he decides that if he's going to be hunted by everyone... he might as well give it his all.
-->"Fame... ''Respect...'' Is that… what you think comes with Roger's name? Do you think I didn't know what would happen if I flashed my captain's name? I knew ''exactly'' what would happen, which is ''exactly'' why I've never done it. I sailed almost this entire world, from the clouds in the sky to the ocean floor, across the deadliest seas and against opponents the most powerful anyone could imagine. And when it was over, I decided that ''[[ScrewThisImOuttaHere I didn't want to be a part of it anymore]].'' I reaped the fruits of the strongest sea, and I chose to use them to ensure that I would never have to return to a life of paranoia, where every puff of smoke, every ripple on the water was a reason to keep your guard up, lest it kill you in a new, creative and ''utterly ludicrous'' way. I laid low and sandbagged as a small-time pirate for over twenty years – TWENTY. YEARS. – because I ''earned'' it, surviving the utter madhouse that was Roger's crew. I just wanted to live the rest of my life in PEACE and SANITY. ''WAS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK''!? …well. Apparently, it was. I never planned on this getting out. I never truly wanted to come back. Back to this sea, to this life, to ''this insanity again…'' But since I have no choice anymore… ''if this is what you '''really''' want''… THEN SO BE IT! LET'S! ''GET!'' '''''FLASHY'''''!\\

"You wanted a Roger Pirate, Sengoku? Well, congratulations: '''''you've got one.'''''"
* NoSell: Any damage involving blades is automatically negated due to his Chop-Chop's power.
* OnlySaneMan: It gradually becomes clear that Buggy was this among the Roger Pirates. Whereas everyone else seems to have fond memories of their time together (including Buggy himself), Buggy's memories are marred by the sheer insanity and paranoia he had to endure during their voyages. When they disbanded, he decided he wanted some peace and quiet, planked his ass in East Blue and never looked back.
* StuffBlowingUp: His specialty, especially when he was part of the Roger Pirates. He was the one responsible for the "prodigious firepower" the ''Oro Jackson'' boasted; said ammunition was so potent that '''Whitebeard''' still has scars from the attacks.
* TemptingFate: He decides to deliberately invoke this and UpToEleven just to piss off Luffy. Not only does that cause him and the others to be discovered by Impel Down's staff, but it also ends with Impel Down being invaded by the World Pirates, screwing ''everyone'' over. One can't really blame Saldeath for declaring a KillOnSight order on him.
* TookALevelInBadass: Seems to be gearing up for this. However, it's revealed during Marineford that it's not so much "Took" a Level In Badass as [[WillfullyWeak "Finally Revealed Actual Level In Badass."]] Considering he has no issues matching the likes of Dracule Mihawk, he's probably stronger than even Luffy at this point, and unquestionably one of the strongest pirates in the world.
* WorthyOpponent: To Dracule Mihawk during Marineford, who is openly grinning and calling him 'interesting' as they clash.

[[folder:Byojack World]]
Brother of the infamous pirate Byrrndi World and acting captain of the World Pirates, he broke into Impel Down with the help of an unknown patron to rescue his brother.
----
* BadassBoast: "No matter what happens, no matter how much this hellish prison throws at me, I won't stop. Not until I save my brother! Or my name isn't Byojack World!"
* CanonImmigrant: Originally from the OVA 3D2Y, here he's getting involved in the Impel Down arc.
* CoolOldGuy: He's an old man and has always been a midget in height and frail in stature. He has negligible strength and stamina. And he's still the captain of a formidable crew ''and'' is determined to literally go to hell and back to rescue his brother.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Even though he and the World Pirates succeed in breaking Byrrndi out, they are quickly wiped out by Blackbeard by unleashing deadly toxins he kept in his Darkness after his fight with Magellan.

[[folder:Minor Crews]]
!!Bleeding Heart Bounty Hunters

A group of compassionate but foolishly stubborn bounty hunters who have an apparent inability to believe that they’re wrong, they distrust the Government and pirates alike.
----
* CondescendingCompassion: They're very compassionate towards Vivi's "circumstances" and waste no time assuring her of rescue. She's having none of it and ''mauls'' their captain.
* CurbStompBattle: On the receiving end from Wyvern, Cross's future self.
* HumanCannonball: Their signature weapon is firing their crew members onto enemy ships.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Due to them not trusting the World Government, as well as believing that all pirates are scum, they think that because Vivi's bounty is fake and she's too nice to ally with pirates, she's been brainwashed and kidnapped by the Straw Hats.

!!Amigo Pirates

A pirate crew the Straw Hats encounter on Little East Blue, searching for Boss Kabuto. Their captain is Largo, whose brother Corto serves as vice-captain.
----

* BadBoss: Largo shoots a {{Mook}} who asks not to fight the [[TheDreaded Straw Hat Pirates]].
* CurbStompBattle: On the receiving end from Cross, Soundbite, Lassoo, and Funkfreed, who defeat them with tactics, luck, and [[RefugeInAudacity sheer audacity]].
* DontWakeTheSleeper: Largo is willing to shoot anyone who interrupts his siesta.
* GratuitousSpanish: Largo and Corto pepper their speech with Spanish.
* InescapableNet: Largo's Net-Net Fruit allows him to create nets out of any substance that he ingests, from mucus to iron to roses to fire. Cross calls it a knock-off of the Munch-Munch Fruit.
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Largo makes ''strumming a guitar'' menacing.
* OhCrap: The reaction of Corto and the fodder when they realize they've docked next to the ''Thousand Sunny''.
* TooDumbToLive: Largo, the captain, elects to pick a fight with the Straw Hats, who openly attacked Enies Lobby and got away with it, ''after'' Cross gave his vice-captain and crew a chance to walk away without conflict.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: Thanks to the "[[SuperSerum gift]]" that Indigo gave them, they thought they could beat the Straw Hats. They lose to Cross and his partners.
* UnwittingPawn: Used as such by Shiki and Indigo. They thought they were being considered to be Shiki's 51st Division, with a SuperSerum given to them as a sign of brotherhood, when in actuality all they were doing was acting as Indigo's guinea pigs for his new iteration of BIQ.
