| 18 | ->''"Pirates usually don't attack the government or Navy on their own. But there ''is'' a force that is trying to directly challenge the World Government. That's the Revolutionary Army. The man who is leading them is Dragon."'' |
| 19 | -->--'''Nico Robin, Chapter 432''' |
| 20 | |
| 21 | The Revolutionary Army is a mysterious and rebellious military organization that directly opposes the current established World Government, with the intention of overthrowing the World Nobles, the descendants of the founders of the organization. Led by Monkey D. Dragon, whose past and goals are unknown, the Revolutionary Army is an eclectic group of misfits, who prefer to act covertly as they seem to lack the military power to wage an open war against the World Government. However, they are shown to be benevolent. Despite being introduced as early as the Loguetown arc, their plans, members and ways of operating are mostly shrouded in mystery for the majority of the story. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | The Reverie arc sheds some light on the goals of the Revolutionaries -- specifically that they don't want to destroy the Marines or World Government itself, but rather the World Nobles that control said World Government and enslave whomever they wish. Not only that, Dragon plans to use the Reverie to declare war on the Celestial Dragons. |
| 24 | ---- |
| 25 | [[foldercontrol]] |
| 26 | [[folder:In General]] |
| 27 | * BadassArmy: The Revolutionary Army is powerful enough to stand up to the World Government, with their leader considered one of the most dangerous men on the planet. The majority of the Commanders have evaded capture by the Marines and assassination by CP-0; those members of the Revolutionary Army known to have been captured by the World Government and imprisoned in Impel Down (Ivankov, Inazuma, [[spoiler: and Morley]]) use that opportunity to engineer the biggest mass breakout of prisoners in its history ''and escape themselves''; one of their members, Kuma, serves as one of the Seven Warlords for years and infiltrated the deepest levels of the Marines, making direct contact with Dr. Vegapunk himself; and their second-in-command Sabo successfully steals the Flame-Flame Fruit from the Warlord Donquixote Doflamingo (in the process overpowering Jesus Burgess, a Captain of Blackbeard's and one of the pirates who killed [[WorldsStrongestMan Whitebeard]]), then uses it to [[YouShallNotPass keep a Marine Admiral away]] from Luffy, all by himself. |
| 28 | * ChekhovsGunman: Like many things in the first half of the series, they're a relatively minor detail who become critical players after the TimeSkip. |
| 29 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: Morley, Belo Betty, Lindbergh, and Karasu are introduced saving helpless civilians who have been attacked by pirates. However, rather than save the civilians by fighting the pirates directly, the commanders instead empower and support the civilians so that they could fight against the pirates themselves by boosting the civilians' strength and morale via Betty's rallying Devil Fruit powers as well as disarming and disabling the pirates of their weapons. After the battle is won, the commanders give the civilians the credit for defeating the pirates as well as contact information to get in touch with the Revolutionary Army should the need ever arise again since they won't abandon weaklings who want to rise up. Furthermore, helping the civilians of the Lulusia Kingdom wasn't even obligatory. The four commanders were just on their way to the meeting at the Kamabakka Kingdom. |
| 30 | * {{Foil}}: To pirates, as noted by Robin; although both pirates and revolutionaries are considered enemies of the World Government, pirates generally do not aim to disrupt the balance of the world whereas revolutionaries actively try to disrupt the status quo. Most importantly, the Revolutionary Army helps citizens who suffer from oppression. |
| 31 | * GogglesDoNothing: The closest they have to a standard piece of equipment is a pair of goggles tied around a hat. |
| 32 | * HeroOfAnotherStory: Arguably the most straightforward example in the series, since they are not pirates and only fight to liberate people oppressed or enslaved by the current world order. They even have a relative protagonist figure in Sabo. |
| 33 | * InTheHood: They often wear hooded cloaks during missions. |
| 34 | * LaResistance: Of course, they're revolutionaries trying to take down the World Government. |
| 35 | * TheParagon: A number of the revolutionaries hold the philosophy to only help people so that they can be able to help themselves. |
| 36 | ** During Luffy's painful treatment from Magellan's poisons, Ivankov makes it clear to a pleading Mr. 2 that he's no miracle worker. He's just someone who helps people focus their will to live with his hormone Devil Fruit powers. He explains upfront that miracles only happen to those who never give up. |
| 37 | ** Chapter 904 shows that the four commanders prefer letting the citizens fight their own battles, using their abilities solely to support them. |
| 38 | * RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The army is mostly composed of people screwed over by their local governments or by the World Government itself ''and'' crazy enough to fight back. Lampshaded once: |
| 39 | -->'''Koala:''' We're gathering those weird people again?! |
| 40 | * TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: The success of the army's ideals being spread around the world? Mostly owed to good-old-fashioned warfare. [[TheRevolutionWillNotBeVilified Then again, against the corrupt World Government, it's not exactly a hard choice.]] Dragon personally sees the distinctions between rulers that should be overthrown with violence and those doing a decent job in a corrupt system but he knows the nuances will be lost in the midst of revolutions and anti-nobles sentiment. |
| 41 | * {{Steampunk}}: Seems to be the overall theme of their dress. |
| 42 | * TrainingThePeacefulVillagers: A unique trait of the Revolutionaries compared to the Straw Hats, other pirates, or the Marines is how they inspire oppressed people to take up weapons themselves, sometimes only offering indirect support by destroying their opponent's weapons rather than fighting directly. This seems to be both tactical and strategic -- the Revolutionaries are presumably outnumbered by the mighty World Government and so must oppose the Celestial Dragons by recruiting as many followers as possible while minimizing the risk of they themselves being apprehended. Also, by actively encouraging people across the world to take matters into their own hands, the nations of One Piece gradually become less reliant on the Marines and less subservient to the World Government. |
| 43 | ** Eastern Army Commander Belo Betty has a Devil Fruit dedicated to this trope -- the Pump-Pump Fruit. |
| 44 | * TrashTheSet: [[spoiler:In the opening of Whole Cake Island arc, the Blackbeard Pirates ransack their base in Baltigo, forcing the core members to move to the Kamabakka Kingdom.]] |
| 45 | * UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: Judging by Morgans' report, the top echelon of the Revolutionary Army (minus Dragon, Ivankov, and Belo Betty) were captured/killed by the Admirals engaging them, as the shocked faces of the readers suggest. In Chapter 1054, after the Onigashima War, it's revealed that the commanders escaped the admirals unscathed; what everyone was shocked about was Sabo apparently killing Cobra.]] |

| 60 | |
| 61 | Monkey D. Dragon "The Revolutionary" is the son of Monkey D. Garp and the father of Monkey D. Luffy. A very mysterious man, very few know about his relation to them due to him being the supreme commander of the Revolutionaries -- who directly oppose the World Government -- and being the world's most wanted man. The World Government fears his ideas will spread chaos in the world, and he has apparently already spread them amongst many nations... mostly through war.\ |
| 62 | |
| 63 | Dragon's bounty remains unknown, but because he's the most wanted person alive, it's presumably among the highest, if not ''the'' highest, currently active. |
| 64 | ---- |
| 65 | |
| 66 | |
| 67 | * BeingGoodSucks: As the most wanted criminal in history due to leading his Revolutionary Army, he knows all too well that any of his loved ones are sure to be killed, so he’s left Luffy in the care of Garp, presumably since his birth. Ivankov notices that he had a habit of facing the east whenever the wind blows, implying that he misses Luffy. [[spoiler: Kuma also picked up on Dragon secretly visiting the Goa kingdom while watching over Luffy, albeit from a safe distance. Dragon promptly tells Kuma to drop the subject, while making it perfectly clear that he wouldn’t hesitate to give his life for Luffy in case the World Government found out about their blood ties.]] |
| 68 | * BigDamnHeroes: Interestingly, he does these very subtly, like that whole business back in Loguetown ([[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane it's unclear]] if the lightning storm hitting Buggy when he was about to execute Luffy was him, but appearing behind Smoker to stop him capturing Luffy definitely was). Ten years before the main story began, his intervention in the burning of Gray Terminal lead to far fewer deaths than there would've been. [[spoiler: He also saved Sabo's life when his ship was blown up by a World Noble, when everyone was sure that he died]]. |
| 69 | * BigGood: After the fall of Whitebeard, Dragon and Shanks are the closest things the series has to one, although in Dragon's case, his exact agenda has yet to be revealed. If nothing else, his army is involved in helping innocent civilians rebel against the horrific World Nobles, so it can at least be assumed that he's given the order to do so. |
| 70 | * CombatPragmatist: Not himself, but rather part of his plan for attacking the World Government. [[spoiler:Dragon has the Revolutionaries destroy the Holy Land's food reserves at the Reverie, and then has his forces destroy any supply ships heading for the Holy Land. The Holy Land is sitting on top of a giant cliff where nothing can be grown, and as such the Celestial Dragons living there will slowly starve. Since attacking Mariejois outright would practically be suicide, Dragon's best bet is to lay seige to Mariejois by starving out the opposition]]. |
| 71 | * ConnectedAllAlong: Dragon [[spoiler:was friends with Professor Clover before the his death in the destruction of Ohara. Dragon is also friends with Doctor Vegapunk, despite their different ideologies]]. |
| 72 | * DaddyHadAGoodReasonForAbandoningYou: He's the [[NotoriousParent most wanted man in the world]], and as such left Luffy in the care of his father Garp. Given Dragon's belief in freedom and his approval of Luffy choosing his own path in life, it's implied (and confirmed) that Dragon abandoned Luffy because he didn't want to force his son into becoming a revolutionary, [[GiveHimANormalLife but to keep him safe]] from [[ItsNotYouItsMyEnemies all his enemies.]] Given what the World Government [[ThePurge did]] to those ''assumed'' were Roger’s lover and child, this was a good decision on his part. |
| 73 | * DefectorFromDecadence: [[spoiler:[[FromCamouflageToCriminal Dragon used to serve as a Marine]], but left because he saw no justice there due to how corrupt the World Government was, instead using the knowledge of weapon-handling and tactics he learned under their flag to enact his own brand of justice in the world]]. |
| 74 | * {{Determinator}}: One of the things that convinces Ivankov that Luffy is telling the truth about his parentage is Luffy having "just displayed a will to live that defies common sense", implying that Luffy inherited his infamous determination from Dragon. |
| 75 | * DisappearedDad: He's been absent from Luffy's life at least since he was 7 and presumably since his birth, to the point Luffy only learns that he has a father when he's 17. However, since Luffy has been completely unaware of him, he never had any issue with it. |
| 76 | * DramaticWind: Seems to be his motif, and possibly his [[BlowYouAway actual power]], though the story hasn't been very clear on that yet. |
| 77 | * TheDreaded: The mere mention of his name makes people temble in fear. When Sengoku mentions his relation to Luffy in Marineford, even Whitebeard's crew seem afraid of him. |
| 78 | * EveryoneHasStandards: |
| 79 | ** When a child says he hates being a noble, you know you've gone too far when he found a near-conscious Sabo. |
| 80 | ** [[spoiler:When the newspapers say that Sabo murdered King Cobra, Dragon is [[TranquilFury left fuming and claims that if Sabo really is the culprit, he will have to answer for it, no matter the reason]]. This shows that, while Dragon might despise the World Government and most nobles, he doesn't harbor the same animosity towards rulers that genuinely care about their people, such as Cobra.]] |
| 81 | * FaceOfAThug: He's an intimidating figure with a disfiguring facial tattoo who is (almost) always drawn to look extremely sinister when he appears on-panel, but he and his Revolutionaries are a force of good who oppose the corrupted World Government. |
| 82 | * FacialMarkings: His most noticeable feature is a vertical tattoo going from his forehead down across his left eye all the way to his chin. Kuma's flashback indicates he got it at some point between 22-14 years before the start of the story's present, but its significance is unknown. |
| 83 | * {{Fauxshadow}}: In the first opening of the anime, Dragon is shown during a line-up of Luffy's foes, indicating that he would be a future antagonist. In retrospect, Toei was jumping to conclusions since this never comes to pass. |
| 84 | * InformedAttribute: Is said to be the most dangerous man alive, but suffers from a lack of screen time. Thus, any impact his revolution has is mostly informed. [[spoiler:Until the Revolutionaries make an appearance in the story while the Straw Hats mess things up in Dressrosa]]. |
| 85 | * LoveIsAWeakness: A surprisingly positive example. He does indeed love his son, but knows fully well that his love for Luffy would be his undoing if the Government ever found out about him, given he would throw away everything if it means saving his life. As such, he gave Luffy to be raised by Garp and made sure to check up on him on occasion, but made sure their relation was never revealed. Subverted after the Paramount War, where he sees Luffy has become strong enough to defend himself and makes no effort to hide their ties to each other. |
| 86 | * LukeIAmYourFather: While meeting at Water 7, Garp reveals to Luffy that his father is Monkey D. Dragon, the leader of the revolutionaries. |
| 87 | * LikeFatherLikeSon: While Luffy often draws comparisons to Gol D. Roger, Ivankov believes the willpower, boundless determination, and likely the inhuman strength that Luffy is known for all come from Dragon. Although Dragon generally acts much colder and more serious than Luffy, and his ever-present smile seems more like a satisfied smirk than his father and son's goofy grins. They're both also anti-oppression and have taken down several despots and tyrannical governments while helping rulers who do care for their people. |
| 88 | * LikeFatherUnlikeSon: Not only does he contrast with Luffy through the former's stoic strategies and the latter's excitable [[LeeroyJenkins recklessness]], but Dragon serves as a foil to his father Garp. While they are both dedicated to a greater cause, Garp is a CloudCuckoolander who [[DidntThinkThisThrough doesn't think about the potential outcomes of his actions]] forces his expectations on his grandson through [[AbusiveParents abusive]], though well-intentioned, [[InsaneTrollLogic backward parenting methods]], giving Luffy a HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood from his TrainingFromHell to become a marine, but resulting in [[TheDreaded Luffy becoming incredibly afraid of him]] and became a pirate to get away from him and make his own choices; Dragon, [[ParentalAbandonment despite being absent for nearly his son's entire life]] is supportive of Luffy's decision to become a pirate and [[SoProudOfYou proud of his son for making his own choices and living his life freely]], and knows full well how he and Luffy's actions are changing the world, with Luffy, due to having no relationship with his dad prior, being indifferent about Dragon at best. |
| 89 | ** The difference between Dragon and Garp is more prominently seen on how they view their home, the East Blue; while Garp is prideful of the sea, claiming that the East Blue is a place of peace (despite it being referred to by many as the ''weakest'' of the four seas), Dragon is more aware of the atrocities committed under the surface by the nobles and how they treat those beneath them, being genuinely shocked and saddened when Sabo flat out states that he '''hates''' being born a noble because of their callousness and cruelty. |
| 90 | * MistakenForRelated: |
| 91 | ** Ivankov is shocked from Luffy admitting he’s Dragon’s son and even more shocked since he’s revealed that Ace is his older brother (thus Dragon’s firstborn son) and promptly enacts his escape from Impel Down in order to rescue Ace from his impending execution, all the while pondering why the Marines would risk declaring war on both Whitebeard and Dragon. It wasn’t until they’re halfway to Marineford did Luffy admit that Ace is not Dragon’s son but Gol D. Roger’s. |
| 92 | ** When Sengoku reveals Ace’s true parentage to the whole world, Koby and Helmeppo confide in each other since they were already aware of Garp revealing that Dragon is Luffy’s father, so they automatically assumed he was Ace’s father as well. |
| 93 | * TheMostWanted: He's called "the most wanted criminal in the world", as he and his group openly defy [[TheEmpire the World Government]] and have converted several countries to their cause, making him the single most dangerous person to the World Government. |
| 94 | * MysteriousParent: Dragon is one of the series' most enigmatic characters, appearing very sporadically through the series and being mentioned by many characters, but for most of the story little to zero is revealed about him and he barely affects the plot. |
| 95 | * MysteriousMiddleInitial: The D in his name, shared with his son and father, is part of the Will of D, a mysterious legacy that somehow connects them all to the World Government and the Celestial Dragons. |
| 96 | * NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Although he's benevolent, his name is "Dragon" and not reassuring at all. |
| 97 | * NoHistoricalFiguresWereHarmed: Subtle, but he takes inspiration from real-life revolutionary leader UsefulNotes/FidelCastro. This is best demonstrated by his ship the Wind Granma, which is named after the ship Castro used to kickstart the Cuban Revolution. Additionally, the shirt he wears in [[spoiler:Vegapunk's flashback]] is very similar to the olive drab uniform that Castro typically wore. |
| 98 | * NotAGame: He tells a subordinate not to enjoy the victory of a won battle, saying that it's [[WarIsHell war]]. |
| 99 | * NotoriousParent: He's the father of Luffy and is known as "the most wanted criminal in the world", because he's the head of the [[LaResistance Revolutionary Army]] whose influence is slowly growing across the whole world. |
| 100 | * NotSoStoic: While generally a PerpetualFrowner, Dragon displays visible emotion at various points such as when he's shocked at Sabo admitting [[DespairEventHorizon he's ashamed of being born a noble]], or when he's visibly shaken after [[spoiler:the newspapers falsely report Sabo killing King Cobra of Alabasta]]. At the end of the day, he's still a human being. |
| 101 | * OpenMindedParent: The fact that when Luffy declares he will be King of the Pirates in Loguetown, he shows approval of his son's decision to to be a pirate. This contrasts very heavily with his own father who regularly beats Luffy for even mentioning becoming a pirate, and even tried to enforce the idea of being a Marine into him. He even makes comments [[SoProudOfYou and shows pride over his son's actions]]. |
| 102 | * PapaWolf: |
| 103 | ** In Loguetown, he saved Luffy from getting arrested by Smoker in the nick of time. Plus, when Luffy was in Impel Down and telling Ivankov about Ace being his brother, Ivankov nearly flipped out and wondered how stupid the Marines were to be pissing off not just [[AFatherToHisMen Whitebeard]] but Dragon as well.[[note]]This was before Luffy told him that Ace wasn't biologically related to Dragon[[/note]] This implies angering the man directly is not a wise action and one would be wise to avoid it. |
| 104 | ** Once Sengoku reveals to the whole world that Dragon is Luffy’s father, practically everyone is terrified of this reveal. The dub gives us this line- |
| 105 | -->'''Galdino''': Makes you think twice about who you punch!\ |
| 106 | '''Buggy''': Why didn’t anyone tell me that’s his dad?! |
| 107 | ** [[spoiler:He was horrified by Sabo expressing his shame of being born a noble and felt disgusted towards the Goa Kingdom for driving a child to say such things. Then it turns out that he’s the one who rescued Sabo from the brink of death due to a World Noble’s [[DisproportionateRetribution petty fury]]. The DeathGlare he gives from this entire event spells he is '''pissed''' with what has happened to a kid he’s just met not too long ago. He then informally adopts Sabo and makes him the Chief of Staff to the Revolutionary Army.]] |
| 108 | ** [[spoiler:In a flashback, he indirectly reveals to Kuma that his abandonment of Luffy stems from knowing that [[SinsOfOurFathers if anything happened to him]], [[TakeMeInstead Dragon would have sacrificed his life to save him]]. And judging by Kuma's reaction to hearing this, he ''meant'' it. This was after Kuma picked up on Dragon secretly watching over Luffy from afar, meaning he never truly abandoned his son, and he knew he had to keep a safe distance for his sake. If there’s one thing for certain out of this whole event, [[OutlivingOnesOffspring Dragon will NOT allow himself to outlive Luffy.]]]] |
| 109 | * {{Pacifist}}: [[spoiler:Dragon ''used'' to be a pacifist, content to protest the excesses of the World Government nonviolently, until the tragedy of Ohara caused him to hit a long-term variant of RageBreakingPoint and he formed the Revolutionary Army in response.]] |
| 110 | * ParentalAbandonment: |
| 111 | ** His son, Luffy, isn't even aware he has a dad until Garp reveals to him during the Water 7-Enies lobby Arc. Being a revolutionary dedicated to the overthrowing of the World Government, forces him to cuts off his ties with his family so that they're not targeted. Iva notes that, when at his main base, Dragon would always stare towards the direction of East Blue, which would imply he's homesick. Iva also theorizes the news of Ace's execution would not only bring Whitebeard's attention, but Dragon as well, [[spoiler:though he turns out to be mistaken on Dragon's relation to Ace]]. |
| 112 | ** [[spoiler: While he was never a part of Luffy’s life, at the same time he never truly abandoned him, as he would occasionally watch over Luffy from a distance.]] |
| 113 | * ParentsAsPeople: He's the head of the Revolutionary Army and the most wanted criminal in the entire world by the time he has a child. While he does love Luffy deeply, he was forced to abandon him due to knowing fully well that raising him would put him in crossfire. |
| 114 | * PerpetualFrowner: In contrast to most D carriers, including his own father and his son, Dragon is almost always serious and rarely sports a smile. |
| 115 | * ProperlyParanoid: [[spoiler:Kuma's flashback shows that he was curious about Dragon's relationship to Luffy after observing them visiting the Goa kingdom and Dragon keeping an eye on him from a distance. When he questioned Dragon about it, Dragon indirectly confirmed their relationship, but with a warning that Kuma should ''never'' talk about it ever again, otherwise he'd as good as sign Dragon's death warrant himself if the World Government ever found out he had a son. Given the same flashback showed that Kuma was coerced into a DealWithTheDevil with Saint Saturn to give up his humanity in exchange for securing a cure for his daughter Bonney, a fate that was the exact opposite of all he'd spent his life fighting for, it's clear that Dragon's extremely hands-off approach with involving himself in Luffy's life was the correct decision]]. |
| 116 | * RageBreakingPoint: Up until [[spoiler:The Buster Call on Ohara]], Dragon used peaceful methods to challenge the World Government, but the act was so repulsive to him, he came to believe that any headway in making change could only be achieved with a force to meet the WG's own. |
| 117 | * RankScalesWithAsskicking: While his abilities are never shown, it's heavily implied he's the strongest among the revolutionaries. Ivankov, who's no pushover himself, mentions that pissing Dragon off is just as bad an idea as challenging [[WorldsStrongestMan Whitebeard]]. He's also indicated by Iva to use Conqueror's Haki, just like his son and father. |
| 118 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Dragon is a stern, yet fair leader of the Revolutionary Army and accepts anyone willing to fight against the Government regardless of their background. [[spoiler:He took time to listen to a ten-year-old Sabo about the boys' shame of his noble heritage and later allowed him to join the Revolutionaries when he said he didn't want to go back to his parents. Once he learns of Sabo having seemingly killed King Cobra, Dragon calms his fellow commanders stating they cannot panic and gives Sabo the benefit of the doubt since they have no proof of knowing if the article is false. After Kuma decides to leave the Revolutionary Army to take care of Bonney after she inherits the same illness as her mother Ginny, Dragon consents to Kuma's request and reassures him he will contact doctors they know to try to find a cure for his daughter.]] |
| 119 | * RebelLeader: Dragon is the leader of the Revolutionaries seeking to dismantle the World Government. |
| 120 | * RedBaron: He's known as ''"The Revolutionary"'' for being the leader of the Revolutionary Army. |
| 121 | * ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: [[spoiler:Surprisingly, Dragon actually used to be a {{Pacifist}}, and used peaceful methods to oppose the World Government's ways. The destruction of Ohara and besmirchment of their names afterwards however, was [[ThisIsUnforgivable a step too far for him]], and he [[ThisMeansWar abandoned all pretences of non-violent opposition]] after realising that the World Government would never be stopped by anything less]]. |
| 122 | * SinsOfOurFathers: Don Chinjao claims that if he had known that Dragon was Garp's son, he would've made sure Luffy would've never been born. This is also implied to be the reason why Luffy was left in Garp's care -- considering how Ace turned out when he learned he was Gold Roger's son while still at a relatively young age, Luffy was lucky to not know the identity of his father until he was old enough not to care. |
| 123 | * SoProudOfYou: While Luffy never speaks to him, Dragon seems to hold high expectations for Luffy and supports his son's actions. Given that said actions have proven to be a massive continuous thorn in the World Government side that only gets worse with every insane deed that Luffy's involved in, it's implied he'd proud of his son's rebellious, freedom-loving nature that makes him fight tyranny for the sake of the oppressed, albeit [[ImNotAHeroIm in his own way]] as a pirate. |
| 124 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: Subverted, as the resemblance clearly skipped a generation. While Ivankov comments that Luffy reminds him of Dragon (due to his determination and willpower), there's not much physical resemblance. Luffy (after seeing Dragon's picture for the first time) even comments that Dragon looks nothing like him. Luffy's permanent frown and hair style during his Gear Fourth forms do make him look a bit more like Dragon, with Snakeman being the closest one in appearance. However, in an SBS, Oda reveals that a grown-up Luffy would resemble Garp far more than his father. |
| 125 | * TakeMeInstead: [[spoiler: In a flashback, Kuma asks him over his mysterious visit to the Goa kingdom and brings up a young boy he watched from a distance. Dragon tells him to drop the subject and makes it clear that he’s willing to die in place of Luffy if their blood relation is discovered by the World Goverment.]] |
| 126 | * TattooedCrook: Half of his face is tattooed, which only accentuates him being the most wanted man by the World Government. |
| 127 | * WackyParentSeriousChild: Zigzagged. Dragon is very serious, while his son Luffy and his father Garp are goofy and cheerful. |
| 128 | * WhenHeSmiles: PlayedWith, in that his smile is usually in the form of a satisfied grin. |
| 129 | * YouCantGoHomeAgain: His comrade Ivankov notes that Dragon has a habit of always facing in the same direction when stepping out for air on their main base, implying he feels homesick for the East Blue, especially towards Luffy. |

| 144 | The Chief of Staff of the Revolutionary Army, second only to Dragon himself. Luffy and Ace's childhood friend and sworn "brother". His weapon of choice is a long pipe, and was the first of them to set out on their dream of becoming great pirates. He was believed to have been killed by the World Nobles, but is later revealed to have survived and has been taken in by Dragon, having lost his memory in the process and didn't remember his past until he hears the news of Ace's death. During his time with the revolutionaries, he TookALevelInBadass, leading him to ultimately rising to the rank of Chief of Staff, ''Dragon's second-in-command''. And this is before he ultimately finds and eats the Flame-Flame Fruit (''Mera Mera no Mi''), inheriting Ace's power and will.\ |
| 145 | |
| 146 | He has a bounty of 602,000,000 Berries. |
| 147 | ---- |
| 148 | * AbusiveParents: His parents never cared about him at all, they only considered him a tool to continue the family wealth and legacy. The fact that nothing he ever did was good enough for them leads him to live out in the wilderness by himself and later with Dadan. |
| 149 | * ActorAllusion: His Vivre Card entry mentions that Sabo's favorite food is ramen, a reference to Creator/JunkoTakeuchi's role as ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', who voices Sabo in Luffy's flashback when they were children. |
| 150 | * AmnesiacHero: Being on a ship shot with an explosive caused him to lose his memory, whereas everyone in Goa Kingdom including Luffy and Ace thought that he died. |
| 151 | * AngstComa: When presented with the news of Ace's death, he regained his memories and then suddenly cries due to the mental overload and the fact that Ace just died. The shock is enough to send him into a coma for 3 days. |
| 152 | * TheArtfulDodger: On a trope perspective, Sabo doesn't want anything to do with his family and is perfectly fine with fending for himself. In fact, he was so reluctant to have their ways forced upon him that his parents adopted an agreeable twit who is every bit as resplendent as they are. On a ''literal'' perspective, everything about his high-class Victorian noble look, reluctance to do away with his tired rags, and his preference for using a pipe as a weapon screams "Literature/OliverTwist", because he gives off the vibe of a back-alley thug, yet he's gone beyond that and risen to become the NumberTwo of the ''Revolutionary Army''. His time in the Goa Kingdom also saw him becoming a very competent street enforcer as a mere child who could hold his own against fully-grown adults! |
| 153 | * BadassAdorable: Even as a kid it's implied that he kicked asses of many grown men. Even more after TimeSkip: One instance shows him having the ability to contend & stalemate, and later defeat ''Jesus Burgess'' (who considers himself the "strongest" fighter under Blackbeard) of all in the Corrida Colosseum tournament after taking over Luffy's disguise. He also uses a ''steel pipe'' to break a sword and his ''bare hands'' to break bazookas, and showcases an extremely proficient use of Haki (Armament, at least) in combat. And for good measure, he worfed a Giant Vice-Admiral like it was nothing and soon after holds his own against [[spoiler:Admiral Fujitora]]. |
| 154 | * BadassLongcoat: He's got such a snappy one for a small kid. As an adult it gets even more badass. |
| 155 | * BeautyEqualsGoodness: Sabo himself looked cute and attractive compared to the {{Gonk}} looking spoiled brats that are the nobles' kids. Neither of his two neglectful parents are particularly attractive either, both appearing rather plain (and also with low individual resemblance to their son). |
| 156 | * BerserkButton: Don't bring up how he wasn't able to join the battle at Marineford and try to save Ace. Jesus Burgess learned this the hard way. |
| 157 | * BigBrotherInstinct: His concern for Luffy as a big brother was more apparent than Ace's prior to his death. After that, Ace more or less took over the role, and became even more protective of Luffy than Sabo ever was. Years after his supposed "death", Sabo proclaims that no matter where he would be in the world, if Luffy were to ever ask for his help, Sabo would do everything in his power to aid him. Sabo has not just taken up Ace's mantle as the user of the Flame-Flame Fruit, but also the mantle of the protector of their mutual younger brother -- to the point that he's arguably become even ''more'' protective than ever before, which says a lot. |
| 158 | ** Case in point: Koala manages to infiltrate the castle after Luffy has defeated Bellamy for the second time and is about to reenter the fight with Doflamingo. She contacts Sabo for help, knowing that she isn't strong enough to interfere with the upcoming battle. Sabo, all the way back at the Colosseum, initially dismisses her request as he believes she's strong enough to finish the job -- only to state that he'll be right there the very ''moment'' after Koala mentions that Luffy might be in danger. |
| 159 | * BigDamnHeroes: With Ace, he saved Luffy from getting beaten further by Bluejam's subordinate. Later when Burgess is [[spoiler:going to kill an exhausted, post-Gear Fourth Luffy]], Sabo promptly arrives and [[DynamicEntry kicks Burgess in the face.]] |
| 160 | * BloodKnight: His reaction to seeing Burgess' raw strength is simply "Nice". |
| 161 | * BreakoutCharacter: The fifth most popular character in the roster, making him the most popular of the Revolutionary Army and the second most popular non-Straw Hat character in the series, behind Trafalgar Law. |
| 162 | * BreakTheCutie: His realisation that the nobles don't care about what they're about to do really got to him. It comes to a climax when he declares he's ashamed to be a noble at all, which really disturbs Dragon. |
| 163 | * BurnScarsBurningPowers: Sabo gained a burn scar around his left eye as a child after surviving an explosion. Over a decade later he gains the power to control fire using the Flame-Flame Fruit, which had previously been Ace's Devil Fruit before his death. |
| 164 | * ChildishToothGap: As a child, he had a missing front tooth and was quite the rambunctious type. |
| 165 | * CuteBruiser: Seems to be pretty good at fighting. Grew up to be ''really'' good at fighting. |
| 166 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: Was raised into a twisted society of Nobles. Forced to leave Luffy and Ace to protect them from his abusive family. When he tried to set sail away from his island, a World Noble fired a shot from his ship at him for a petty reason. Thankfully, he was rescued by Dragon, but had amnesia about his past, including his brotherhood with Ace and Luffy. And the moment he gained back his memories was ''after'' he saw the news of Ace's death. |
| 167 | * DeclarationOfProtection: In his farewell letter, he asks Ace to protect Luffy. Ace does, eventually to the cost of his own life. Years later, Sabo tells Fujitora that no matter where he was in the world, if Luffy were to ask for his aid, he'd be at his side in an instant. It then flashes to panel showing his reaction to Ace's death and the look of pain on his face as he remembers his loss. He lost Ace, and he'll never know whether or not his brother could have been saved if he had been there. He won't take that risk again and lose Luffy as well. |
| 168 | * DefectorFromDecadence: His parents were the typical noble bastards, but he knew that the nobility were selfish, arrogant and pompous. Not to mention they are more than capable of committing unforgivably evil acts. So he ran away to the Gray Terminal and lived with Ace, and later Luffy. It's the last straw for him when the nobles planned to burn Gray Terminal and its residents to the ground because a World Noble is visiting their kingdom, and after he survived the ordeal, he departed to become a pirate the next day. Then he was blasted down by the World Noble's ship. Fortunately he survived and was rescued by Revolutionaries, but nobody else knows that. |
| 169 | * DidntSeeThatComing: To the audience, Doflamingo, and even the heroes, his reappearance was very unexpected. Makes you wonder what else the Revolutionaries are capable of. |
| 170 | * ElementalPunch: His SignatureMove, Hiken (Fire Fist), inherited from his late brother, of course. |
| 171 | * EmpoweredBadassNormal: He was strong enough to block an attack from Burgess and break the Corrida Colosseum arena ''before'' he ate the Flame-Flame Fruit. |
| 172 | * FacePalmOfDoom: He administers one to Vice Admiral Bastille and Jesus Burgess on separate occasions. |
| 173 | * FireForgedFriends: Him, Ace, and Luffy are all very close, and he and Ace grew close to Luffy after they saved his life. |
| 174 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: |
| 175 | ** In a very literal case, when Luffy and Ace are shown declaring themselves SwornBrothers in a {{Flashback}} via drinking sake together, the shadow cast by Sabo's cup is visible. In a similar moment after the TimeSkip, the cover story arc ends with showing Ace's grave has three sake cups laid out, hinting at Sabo's survival. |
| 176 | ** In his last words, Whitebeard muses “I’m sure someone will appear to carry on Ace’s will, someday”. During the Dressrosa arc, Sabo has eaten the [[PlayingWithFire Flame-Flame Fruit]] after it has come back to circulation following Ace’s death. |
| 177 | * {{Frameup}}: [[spoiler:The press falsely accuses Sabo of murdering [[TheGoodKing Nefeltari Cobra]] of Alabasta. Although in a rare twist, Sabo's king slayer label actually ''helps'' the revolutionary movement, as it only inspires people to take up action against their own rulers. Sabo, for his part, doesn't have a problem with being blamed for his murder either if that's what it takes to embolden the people. The truth is that Imu [[HeKnowsTooMuch had Cobra killed]], and that Sabo, who was in the area by chance, made a valiant but futile attempt to save him]]. |
| 178 | * GildedCage: He describes his childhood as looking nice thanks to the wealth and cleanly image, but everything about his environment is suffocating; his parents are abusive monsters, he has no ability to travel and see the rest of the kingdom, and everyone else in his class is a sociopath that wouldn't think twice to burn people below them alive. It's no wonder he's only happy when he's with his sworn brothers. It's so bad that, even after [[LaserGuidedAmnesia losing his memory]], he instinctively loathes the idea of returning to the home he can't remember. |
| 179 | * GogglesDoNothing: He wears them on the band of his hat and is likely to have never used them. |
| 180 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: Though it came from a serious burn wound, his scar is relatively neat and only lightly pinked, and due to not damaging his eye, his looks are largely unaffected by it. |
| 181 | * GroundPunch: His Dragon Claw Palm: Dragon's Breath technique can shatter entire stone platforms, as seen in Corrida Colosseum. |
| 182 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Sabo has blonde hair, the TokenGoodTeammate of the nobles in Goa Kingdom, and a nicer big brother to Luffy during their childhood. |
| 183 | * HeroicBSOD: Reading an article about Ace's death not only restored his memories but also sent him into an intense depression similar to the one Luffy suffered over Ace's death. |
| 184 | * HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: During his time with Luffy and Ace, he met Garp and thus earned the rather... ''dubious'' honor of being his third grandson. It didn't take long for him to become every bit as terrified of Garp as Luffy and Ace were, thanks to this trope. |
| 185 | * HowDoIShotWeb: Downplayed. Sabo has a little trouble getting used to using the newly-acquired Flame-Flame Fruit, such as turning it off, but he seems to get the hang of it quickly. |
| 186 | * {{Irony}}: As a child, he almost died from an explosion caused by a World Noble shooting his ship. As an adult, he eats the Flame-Flame Fruit, becoming immune to fire. |
| 187 | * KiManipulation: As an adult, he can use at least Armament Haki. |
| 188 | * KnightTemplarBigBrother: Sabo will do anything for Luffy, if the sheer destruction he caused was any indication. |
| 189 | * LateArrivalSpoiler: ''And how''. Sabo's image was all over the latest One Piece merchandise mere weeks after being revealed alive. And being the user of the Flame-Flame Fruit means he also spoils Ace's death. |
| 190 | * TheLawOfDiminishingDefensiveEffort: Sabo comments that it's hard to remember that he no longer needs to dodge every single attack after eating the Flame-Flame Fruit. |
| 191 | * LikeFatherUnlikeSon: His parents are both heartless nobles who are regularly abusive and dismissive of those beneath their status. Sabo meanwhile is kind, virtuous and stands up for the oppressed. |
| 192 | * MatchstickWeapon: Sabo can imbue his pipe staffs with fire. |
| 193 | * MundaneUtility: The cover of Chapter 799, at the end of the Dressrosa arc, shows Sabo using his powerful hand grip (as evidenced in his Dragon's Claw technique) to crack some really hard walnuts for squirrels. |
| 194 | * MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Or rather class, not only was he the only known good noble in Goa, but the fact that he was '''ashamed''' that he was born as one since the rest of them are seen as selfish assholes. |
| 195 | * MythicalMotifs: [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Dragons]]. He has many dragon-themed attacks, he likens his hands to dragon claws, and after he eats Flame-Flame Fruit, he also gains the corresponding powers. Coincidentally, he's technically TheDragon to the leader of the revolution, the man named Dragon. Ironically, he hates Celestial Dragons in particular (and obnoxious nobles in general). |
| 196 | * NervesOfSteel: [[spoiler: At the Reverie, Sabo went head to head with Imu and the transformed versions of the Five Elders, even if only for a few minutes. As shown at the Egghead Arc, just one of the Five Elders, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn has an aura intimidating enough to rattle fighters like Luffy or Kizaru or cause a regular man's head to explode.]] |
| 197 | * NeverFoundTheBody: Only [[DeadHatShot his hat]] is seen among the wreckage after his ship was blasted. Which thus lends some credibility to how he ends up alive in Dressrosa, and as a member of the Revolutionaries. |
| 198 | * NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler:{{Subverted|Trope}}. In chapter 1060, Sabo contacts the Revolutionary Army in an attempt to inform them about what happened to him at the Reverie. Unfortunately, the Marines manage to trace the call back to Lulusia Kingdom as Imu annihilates the island. However, it's implied through the Five Elders that Sabo supposedly being on the island at the time was just a coincidence, meaning he was in no way responsible for its annihilation. Chapter 1086 reveals that Imu had planned on destroying the kingdom anyway, about a month in advance, as a test of the [[WeaponOfMassDestruction Mother Flame's]] destructive capabilities.]] |
| 199 | * NiceGuy: Sabo is a nice fella; even Luffy stated that he was a nicer brother than Ace during their youth. |
| 200 | * NumberTwo: Apparently he is this to Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionaries. He was raised to become second-in-command [[AFatherToHisMen and treated just like a son.]] |
| 201 | * OnlySaneMan: He certainly feels this way after discovering that all of the nobles are fine with the burning of Gray Terminal. He was also this with Luffy and Ace, as he was the most rational of the three (considering his upbringing). |
| 202 | * PersonOfMassDestruction: If he wasn't one before by destroying the entire ring in the Corrida Colosseum, he's certainly one after having eaten the Flame-Flame Fruit. The anime puts this trait more into focus, as [[spoiler: when he clashes with Fujitora, he causes an enormous conflagration that incinerates an entire city block by combining his newfound fire powers with a simple kick, also causing the Marine onlookers to flee for dear life.]] |
| 203 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: Being a 10-year-old boy who can beat up grown men and giant animals was certainly impressive. He is still this in the current timeline: as a 22-year-old, he is fairly unspectacular in height for the ''One Piece'' world (6'1 and a half) and has a thin frame comparable to Luffy. And yet, he's ''damn'' strong and completely overwhelmed a high ranking member of an ''Emperor's'' crew. He can even keep up with a Marine Admiral. |
| 204 | * PipePain: Is fond of using pipes. In a special shot on the front of a chapter of his adult self with Luffy and Ace, he also wields one. In Corrida Colosseum, while disguised as "Lucy", he also wields the pipe. After ditching the disguise, he still carries the pipe. At this point it's probably safe to consider it his main weapon. Other sources and media even mainly depict his usage of it very akin to a bou-staff. |
| 205 | * PlayingWithFire: In the midst of the chaos he created after destroying the Corrida Colosseum arena, Sabo eats the Flame-Flame Fruit, gaining its powers and symbolically inheriting Ace's will. He wastes no time in using Ace's SignatureMove as an homage to his late brother. Since he has just eaten the Devil Fruit, Sabo has troubles controlling its huge power. |
| 206 | * PosthumousCharacter: Sabo appears in Luffy's flashback, at the end of which he's blown up by a World Noble. Subverted when it's revealed that he's survived. |
| 207 | * PragmaticHero: Downplayed. While Sabo [[spoiler:didn't actually kill King Cobra, he admits to Dragon and Ivankov that he isn't exactly upset with how things turned out, at least as far as how it incited the people to rise up. King Cobra was a good man who didn't deserve to die, but his alleged murder at Sabo's hands is still good PR for the Revolution. That said, it's clear that Sabo sincerely regrets that he couldn't save Cobra, and wishes he'd been able to get out his version of events sooner. But in the time between him being forced to lie low from injuries and his resurfacing in Lulusia, the story of him killing Cobra was already widespread, so [[SureLetsGoWithThat he ended up going with that version of events]] despite internally wanting to save the king's good name]]. |
| 208 | * RedBaron: After eating the Flame-Flame fruit and gaining fire power, Sabo becomes known as "Flame Emperor". |
| 209 | * RememberedTooLate: He only regained his memories after Ace died. In fact, it was reading an article about Ace's death that triggered his memories to return. The shock was enough to reduce him to InelegantBlubbering. |
| 210 | * RememberTheNewGuy: For someone so incredibly important to Luffy it's conspicuous that his name is never actually mentioned until after Ace's death. The only other reference to him involves the crossed out S in Ace's shoulder tattoo, which was later revealed to be a tribute to Sabo. Might be justified; Sabo says that Luffy probably didn't want to tell anyone about his own bad past, and in particular, Sabo's supposed death. |
| 211 | * TheReveal: |
| 212 | ** Chapter 731 all but outright reveals that he is alive and a member of the Revolutionary Army. And Chapter 744 makes it official. |
| 213 | ** In Chapter 794, he reveals what happened to him right after Ace died, and why he never tried to contact Ace or Luffy afterward. That reason being [[spoiler:LaserGuidedAmnesia from the attack that nearly killed him]]. |
| 214 | * RichKidTurnedSocialActivist: Sabo is the son of a noble family of the Goa Kingdom. However after getting along with Luffy and Ace as kids to the point they become foster brothers, getting disowned by his family and replaced by Stelly as a result of said relationship and seeing the terrible conditions the poor people live in, Sabo thinks the entire world is rotten and needs to be changed. Dragon takes Sabo under his wing and he's now the vice-commander of the Revolutionary Army. |
| 215 | * RudelyHangingUp: A running gag with him. He says what he needs to say and then hangs up the phone in the face of his fellow Revolutionary, usually to their anger. |
| 216 | * ScarsAreForever: Most of his scar from his run in with that World Noble remain on his face 12 years after the event. |
| 217 | * SharpDressedMan: Sports a BadassLongcoat, hat, and neckerchief. His fashion sense (even when he was a child) stands in contrast to Luffy and Ace's more casual attire, and highlights his nobler beginnings. |
| 218 | * SpannerInTheWorks: |
| 219 | ** His appearance in the Dressrosa arc allows him and Luffy to switch places at the tournament, so Luffy can go save Law without worrying about the Flame-Flame Fruit falling into the wrong hands. He especially counts considering that he was perhaps the ''only'' person Luffy would ever allow without argument to gain the power of the Flame-Flame Fruit outside of his own crew -- and Sabo wouldn't have been in the ''country'' had it not been for the tournament in the first place, as following Ace's death he made it a point to seek that Fruit. |
| 220 | ** [[spoiler:Learning about [[ShadowDictator Imu's]] existence and who really controls The World Government during The Reverie and outright managing to escape being assassinated ''twice'' (once by Imu and the Five Elders and once during the annihilation of Lulusia, although the latter has nothing to do with Sabo being there as implied in Chapter 1060 and confirmed in Chapter 1086) in order to tell what he learned to [[BigGood Dragon]] easily makes him one of the biggest problems the ruling power among The World Government has ''ever had'', not to mention one of their worst case scenarios considering Sabo's role among The Revolutionary Army.]] |
| 221 | * StrongFamilyResemblance: Sabo obviously looks more like his mother, as he’s inherited his blonde hair, black eyes and fair skin from her. |
| 222 | * SuperiorSuccessor: Along with taking to the Flame-Flame Fruit with [[InstantExpert relative ease]], Sabo fights on par with a Marine Admiral, which Ace has always struggled to do. |
| 223 | * SureLetsGoWithThat: [[spoiler: Originally he tried to explain to the people of Lulucia that he wasn't Cobra's killer, but after seeing how the FrameUp motivated them, among other nations to stand against their own rulers, he decided to just roll with it]]. |
| 224 | * SwornBrothers: He's sworn brothers with Luffy and Ace. None of them were related of course, but they were very close and even made a ceremony of drinking sake and became brothers. Sabo admits in his farewell letter that their bond as brothers is his greatest treasure, and what we are shown of his reaction to Ace's death cannot express the sheer ''pain'' it caused him as he cries out in grief. Especially as this was the event that triggered the regaining of his lost memories. |
| 225 | * TakingUpTheMantle: He enters the Colosseum tournament to win and eat the Flame-Flame Fruit partially in homage to Ace. He succeeds and gains Ace's abilities, thus becoming his direct successor. |
| 226 | * TokenGoodTeammate: As a kid, Sabo was only good noble in the Goa Kingdom. |
| 227 | * TragicKeepsake: In a strange variation, his flame powers he received through the Flame-Flame Fruit because they were originally his brother's (Ace) powers before his death. |
| 228 | * UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: He is seemingly obliterated by Imu while hiding out at the Kingdom of Lulusia, but revealed later to have survived, having made the announcement from a location separate from the kingdom itself.]] |
| 229 | * TheUpperCrass: Son of a noble family in Goa Kingdom, but he prefers playing around with his commoner friends Luffy and Ace in the streets and the woods. |
| 230 | * VitriolicBestBuds: His friendship with Koala swings into this territory a bit due to his stubbornness getting on her nerves, which in turn earns him an earful of complaints. Still, they seem to get along well most of the time. |
| 231 | * WalkingSpoiler: Especially once you know he's actually alive. And that he was introduced right after Ace's death. |
| 232 | * WhiteSheep: Sabo is the only one in his family who isn’t an evil, spoiled aristocrat. While his own parents and stepbrother only care about themselves and their reputation, Sabo is kind and cares about others. |
| 233 | * WorfEffect: While he is undoubtedly a powerful fighter, [[spoiler: and despite launching a surprise attack, he ends up failing to injure the Five Elders or Imu, and gets critically wounded in turn and needing Cobra to buy him time just to escape.]] |
| 234 | * YankTheDogsChain: He tried to escape the decadent noble life and become a pirate, only to be shot down by a World Noble ship. It's later subverted -- he actually survived the explosion and ends up with Dragon's Revolutionaries. |
| 235 | * YouShallNotPass: Proves his badass credentials when he ''singlehandedly'' prevents the Marines on Dressrosa from catching up to Luffy and the other pirates going after Doflamingo. Among said Marines include two Vice-Admirals (one of whom he's already [[CurbStompBattle curbstomped]]) and [[spoiler:Admiral Fujitora]]. |

| 252 | |
| 253 | The G Army Commander of the Revolutionary Army, which focuses on the Grand Line; and the former ruler of Kamabakka Kingdom. Emporio Ivankov, or Iva for short, is a transvestite known as a "Miracle Worker" for saving the lives of several people. However, because he's also an officer of the Revolutionaries trying to overthrow the World Government, he was captured and put into the world's worst prison, Impel Down. Ivankov's power comes from eating the Horm-Horm Fruit (''Horu Horu no Mi''), which allows him to inject hormones into the human body. These hormones can cause sex changes, increased adrenaline, bodily growth, and other things, which in his words make him an "engineer of the human body". This is the reason that he was able to heal many people from the brink of death. However, he claims he's not a "Miracle Worker," and merely allowed people with the "[[{{Determinator}} Will to Live]]" to go on. He can't help those who don't have the drive to help themselves. He is also a master of ''Newkama Kenpo''.\ |
| 254 | |
| 255 | Iva is flamboyant, like Mr. 2 Bon Clay, and has a habit of [[OhCrapFakeout panicking, then saying the opposite of what he said earlier]]. He is very proud of being a transvestite and of the people he ruled over in a hidden level of Impel Down, even expressing his ideals about it, and doesn't care if anyone disagrees with his views. In fact, he has made enemies of people who are furious at how spreading his view has affected them personally, but doesn't seem to care about that either, and deals with them in his own, [[GenderBender unique]] way. |
| 256 | ---- |
| 257 | * AgentPeacock: ''The'' most flamboyant character in the story and one of the most badass. He fought with Bartholomew Kuma evenly and curb-stomps people with a ''wink''. |
| 258 | * AttractiveBentGender: While [[{{Gonk}} damn weird-looking]] as a man, his female form is both attractive and well endowed. [[StupidSexyFlanders You know it's true]]. |
| 259 | * BeamSpam: Can't think of another way to describe his ultimate attack, Galaxy Wink. |
| 260 | * BerserkButton: He hates it when people forget his face, on the completely logical grounds that it's damn hard. [[{{Gonk}} No matter how hard you try...]] |
| 261 | * BigHeadMode: Thanks to hormones. With it, he can unleash the dreaded "HELL WINK", a super-size version of his Death Wink. |
| 262 | * {{Biomanipulation}}: The Horm-Horm Fruit lets him create and inject hormones with a wide variety of ([[ArtisticLicenseBiology medically improbably]]) effects. |
| 263 | * CampyCombat: The greatest okama of them all and he uses his Devil Fruit, the Horm-Horm Fruit, to change himself into a woman to fight. His move "DEATH WINK" also has him wink his mascaraed eye with long eyelashes to send a powerful blast of air pressure. |
| 264 | * CastFromLifespan: His Emporio Healing Hormone can force the body to induce healing, but at the cost of draining away the life expectancy of the body because it uses up its ability to regenerate much faster. He warned Luffy that healing him to overcome Magellan's poisoning would come at the price of ten years, and was later forced to expunge some of his own lifespan to survive a poisoning inflicted on him by Magellan as well. He did not administer this treatment to Inazuma, however, on the grounds that Inazuma was a highly valuable member (one of their teachers for the children among their ranks) of the Revolutionary Army and it would be a grave sin to steal away his lifespan when he is desperately needed for their cause. |
| 265 | * CharacterCatchPhrase: "HEEHAW!" |
| 266 | * CharlesAtlasSuperpower: The guy sent Kuma groggy with a dropkick. He was also ''the only'' one to actually wound Magellan in a confrontation during the Impel Down arc, [[spoiler:and after meeting Sanji, he kicked his ass in ''less than a panel'']]. Also, having this is pretty much a [[RequiredSecondaryPowers required secondary power]] when he can quintuple the size of his already massive head. |
| 267 | * CloudCuckoolander: Even Bon Clay, the CampGay extremely eccentric ballerina, thinks Ivankov is nuts. |
| 268 | * CoolAndUnusualPunishment: This guy uses ''sex change'' as a punishment for those that come after him. He already used it once on a famous ruler, and then when the guy's son, Bellert, came after him, he did the same thing to him... now her. Bellert was [[NakedPeopleAreFunny topless at the time]] [[CrossesTheLineTwice and the pants that fit as a man fell off the slender body of a woman.]] |
| 269 | * CriticalStatusBuff: His Tension Hormones are an adrenaline rush on tap, designed to pump the body full of enough oomph to ignore pain and fatigue, but they [[HeroicRROD cannot belay the effects of wear and tear forever.]] |
| 270 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Ivankov acts and looks like a total weirdo who rarely acts serious, yet he ''is'' a commander of the Revolutionary Army. Best shown during the Marineford war he fights on par against Kuma, who was fully modified into a Pacifista without much trouble. He would later go on to defeat Sanji, one of the Straw Hats best fighters without breaking a sweat. |
| 271 | * DangerousForbiddenTechnique: The Healing Hormone. It compromises the body's lifespan and doesn't ensure one's survival, leaving them desperately clinging to life and burning off so much body mass in the process that they come out of the ordeal heavily emaciated. The healing process it gives is also agonizing slow and [[BodyHorror forces the inside of one's body to tear itself apart and rebuild time and time again until it has grown strong enough to overcome its ailment]], while the recipient has to be restrained to avoid writhing in agony and preventing their bodies from healing correctly... and it is ''[[ScreamDiscretionShot unbelievably]]'' painful. |
| 272 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler:Kuma's backstory reveals Ivankov was a slave of the World Nobles and was forced to play their hunting game. Around this time he would also befriended Kuma and Ginny.]] |
| 273 | * {{Determinator}}: Is very determined, by virtue of coming back after getting poisoned by Magellan, and can bring out this quality in others; specifically, his "Healing Hormones" allow a terminally ill patient to survive by drawing on their willpower, even if it is a rather slim chance. |
| 274 | * EveryoneHasStandards: He invokes this. He explains to Bon Clay that he and his Newkama aren't good people who would help someone just because they need it. However, when Luffy, who was at death's door, begged him to help ''Bon Clay'', Ivankov says refusing to treat them both would be inhuman. |
| 275 | * EyeBeams: Technically his "DEATH WINK", although it's not a 'beam', but a [[BlowYouAway blast of air pressure]]. |
| 276 | * {{Expy}}: Ivankov was partly based on [[Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow Dr. Frank N Furter]]. |
| 277 | * FingerpokeOfDoom: As previously mentioned, his main form of offense is the "DEATH WINK!" |
| 278 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: When Ivankov confronts Kuma during the Paramount war, he questions why Kuma is serving the government and the deal he made about the Pacifista program proclaiming he knows Kuma and how much he hates the government. [[spoiler:While this claim hints at Kuma's connection to being a revolutionary, it actually was because of the two having been slaves at the hands of the World Nobles in their youth and Ivankov knowing how much Kuma suffered because of them.]] |
| 279 | * FunnyAfro: Which is so epic he ''carries people around by hiding them in it''. |
| 280 | * GagLips: One of his attacks (anime only) involves propelling himself towards his opponent lips-first in order to slam them. |
| 281 | * GenderBender: His Devil Fruit powers grant him the ability to switch a body from male to female hormones and vice-versa. For those that piss him off, it's a punishment, and for those that seem unable to get in touch with how they envision their true inner selves due to the barrier of genders, he's there to help them finally cross that bridge. Level 5.5's collection of Okama is dotted with several transgender individuals thanks to him (notably, there is a stark lack of women in Impel Down save for Level 5.5 -- perhaps some men got a little ''too'' lonely for the company of females and took it to the ultimate extreme?). He even spontaneously gender-flipped an Impel Down guard into female purely based on the ''suspicion'' that they wanted to be female, who then ''thanked'' him for it. Evidently, Invankov's been doing this long enough to get a good read on people and become a strong judge of character. |
| 282 | * AGodIAmNot: Claims that despite his reputation as a miracle worker, he's not some divine being who can save everyone. All he ever did for people he's healed and countries on the brink of collapse was give them a chance to help themselves, and if they lack a strong enough will, then too bad. |
| 283 | * GoodIsNotSoft: A pretty affable dude who is firmly against [[PeoplesRepublicOfTyranny The World Government]] as a member of The Revolutionary Army and one of Luffy's most powerful and essential allies during Marineford, but he's ruthlessly pragmatic (he has a very firm "will not help those who cannot help themselves" mentality), his {{Biomanipulation}} abilities have some pretty nasty side effects and is surprisingly callous about the fate of those he inflicts his CoolAndUnusualPunishment to. He ''does'' point out that he's [[AvertedTrope not]] [[ChronicHeroSyndrome someone who would help someone just because they need it.]], in fact. |
| 284 | * {{Gonk}}: The male form. |
| 285 | * GratuitousEnglish: He calls the Newkama his "Candy Boys" and uses English for his attack "Death Wink" and all its variants. |
| 286 | * InkSuitActor: While the [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed resemblance to]] [[Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow Tim Curry]] is uncanny, he is actually based on Norio Imamura, a guy in Mayumi Tanaka's dance troupe. Ivankov's name comes from the occassion when Oda first met Imamura, he thought his face looked like a boulder, and thought his name was ''[[PunnyName Iwa]]''[[PunnyName mura]]. ("Iwa" means "boulder"). When Imamura found out the character was based on him, he immediately auditioned for the voice role of Ivankov and got it, though he was unable to stay with in as within a couple months, Imamura [[RoleEndingMisdemeanor got arrested]] for breaking Japan's strict obscenity laws (he posted a non-explicit photo on his personal blog showing off some body art) and had to be replaced. The new voice actor is almost indistinguishable from the old one, but the unfortunate circumstances remained in place. |
| 287 | * InsistentTerminology: He is ''not'' the king of the Okama -- he is the ''queen''. As in DragQueen [[DontExplainTheJoke get it?]] |
| 288 | * LargeAndInCharge: Formerly the ruler of Kamabakka Kingdom and ruler of "New Kama Paradise", he's at least twice as tall as an average person and has a giant head, which he can enlarge even further for maximum intimidation. |
| 289 | * MadeOfDiamond: He flew lips-first into Akainu's magma fist and yet survived. He handwaved it by claiming that he wore a thick makeup. He does, however, collapse from the heat and smoke. |
| 290 | * TheNicknamer: Calls very few people by their name, often focusing on an aspect of somebody or part of their name and adding "Boy" or "Girl" to the end of it. He calls his followers "Candy Boys", Luffy "Straw Hat Boy", and in Burning Blood refers to Koala as "Koala Girl" in pre-fight banter. Does not apply to Kuma, Dragon, Jimbei, or other people Ivankov apparently sees as equals or superiors. Humorously, it does apply to Crocodile. |
| 291 | * NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: He was based partly on a real life drag queen Oda knows, who was also his original voice actor in the anime. |
| 292 | * QueerPeopleAreFunny: Invoked and exploited. Ivankov ''knows'' people don't take him seriously because of his over-the-top antics (which are all PlayedForLaughs) and his flamboyant personality and appearance, which he always exploits to take his opponents by surprise. |
| 293 | * RankScalesWithAsskicking: Don't let Iva's body or weird habits fool you, this Revolutionary Commander is as deadly as they come and is not shy about getting his hands dirty. |
| 294 | * RedBaron: Aside from the aforementioned "Okama King" moniker, he's also known as the "Miracle Person" |
| 295 | %%* RefugeInAudacity: ''His entire existence.'' ZCE |
| 296 | * RunningGag: Ivankov appears to suffering, and then it turns out he is {{Not}} suffering. |
| 297 | * SecretKeeper: He knows a very scandalous secret about Crocodile involved back when they first meet (when Crocodile was a rookie) and this knowledge alone is enough to kowtow Crocodile into compliance with the just the threat of revealing said secret, with the former Warlord's smug attitude when he met Luffy in Impel Down melt and turn into ''dread'' at seeing Ivankov again. |
| 298 | * SelfDuplication: His "Galaxy Wink" technique, combined with ConfusionFu, where he splits into copies of himself and they all wink the target into submission. |
| 299 | * ShockwaveClap: Basically how Death Wink works, only replace hands with thick eyelashes. |
| 300 | * StockingFiller: Fishnet stockings are valued by male, female, and other Newkama alike. Ivankov is no exception. |
| 301 | * StupidSexyFlanders: You saw that picture up there, right? Damn, that's... it's not ugly, but kind of disturbing to some people. [[http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ldg7etFJTz1qbgt3lo6_250.png Now, this is what he looks like as a woman.]] |
| 302 | * SwissArmySuperpower: With the power to [[{{Biomanipulation}} create and control hormones]], Iva has a lot of applications; he can change your sex, cause [[SizeShifter rapid body growth]] like making your head super large, accelerate your immune system, and grant adrenaline spikes. |
| 303 | * {{Transvestite}}: And damn proud of it. They don't call him the Queen of Okama for nothin'! |
| 304 | * {{Troll}}: Most notably when he briefly allows Magellan to assume his attacks worked on him, and later when he flirts with Sanji in his female form right before switching back. |
| 305 | * UncannyValleyMakeup: Applied so thick as to provide a significant deterrent to ''stone melting acid'' and, later, '''stone melting lava'''. |
| 306 | * VerbalTic: He has a tendency to put "buru" at the end of a sentence (like many other catchphrases in the series, it has no actual meaning other than a distinct way of talking). He pronounces "watashi" (I, me, myself) and "anata" (you -very polite-) with a v(vatashi and vanata), and changes words with "w" sounds for "v" sounds instead. |
| 307 | * WartsAndAll: Bon Clay had a tough time believing Ivankov was the miraculous person he thought he was after seeing the guy's eccentricity (and this is compared with ''Bon Clay'', so that's '''really''' saying something), only changing his mind when Ivankov deflected a [[FingerPokeOfDoom cannonball with a wink]] and turned the guy who fired it [[GenderBender into a woman]]. A lesser version of this happens a little later, when Ivankov dismisses Bon Clay's claims that he is a miracle worker and a god among Okama, saying that in the stories Bon Clay mentioned, he didn't miraculously heal people, he only brought out their [[{{Determinator}} inner will to live]]. |
| 308 | * WolverineClaws: He can use his hormones to extend his nails into talons, sharp enough to slice solid concrete. |

| 319 | |
| 320 | The Captain of the Western Forces in the Revolutionary Army. She is a giant and an okama who wields a trident. She has eaten the Push-Push Fruit (''Oshi Oshi no Mi'') which lets her manipulate the earth like clay. Notably, Morley appears to be the first giant in story canon to have eaten a Devil Fruit. |
| 321 | |
| 322 | She has a bounty of 293,000,000 Berries. |
| 323 | ---- |
| 324 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: Inverted – one of Morley's running gags is thinking that an enemy is trying to hit on her and being grossed out at the concept. |
| 325 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: Don't let Morley's goofy appearance mislead you; she is ''very'' competent at her job. She was even able to go toe-to-toe with Admiral Ryokugyu during the Reverie[[note]]Although Ryokugyu had to significantly hold back given the situation, that still is an impressive accomplishment no matter how you cut it[[/note]]. |
| 326 | * ChekhovsGunman: It's mentioned way back in the Impel Down Arc that a Devil Fruit user with the power to tunnel helped create the secret Level 5.5 where Emporio Ivankov and an army of Revolutionary soldiers as well as okama gather. Morley is an okama with the power to move earth around freely, and Oda confirms she's the same person. |
| 327 | * DishingOutDirt: Through the use of the Push-Push Fruit, she has been shown to manipulate earth to move it as if it were clay. |
| 328 | * EarlyBirdCameo: The silhouette of her face can be seen in Chapter 801 and Episode 746, although it looks different from her finalized design. [[spoiler:Prior to that, she's mentioned in Chapter 538, though not by name (word of Oda is that Ivankov didn't know it was her), as the person who created the space that would become Level 5.5 of Impel Down.]] |
| 329 | * GogglesDoNothing: She has goggles around her bowler hat. |
| 330 | * {{Gonk}}: Morley is not exactly conventionally attractive, to put it mildly. For starters she has very big lips and very puffy cheeks, on top of being obese. |
| 331 | * LargeAndInCharge: Comes with being a giant and a high ranking commander of the Revolutionaries. |
| 332 | * TheTease: Despite the [[{{Gonk}} obvious]], Morley constantly flirts with any man she comes across, including her enemies during combat. |
| 333 | * TunnelKing: A [[RareFemaleExample Tunnel Queen]] in this case. Due to her power, Morley can easily move through the ground. Her first appearance has him literally emerge from the surface. Moreover in Chapter 905, it's implied Morley is moving inside of the Red Line, having been seen by King Stelly of Goa Kingdom. [[spoiler:SBS Volume 91 reveals that she once used this power to create the space that would become level 5.5 of Impel Down, and to escape from the prison in the process.]] |

| 349 | |
| 350 | She has a bounty of 457,000,000 berries. |

| 354 | * GogglesDoNothing: She wears a pair of goggles around her hat, but she already has shades. |
| 355 | * InspirationalInsult: She constantly insults people whose spirit are broken, but the fact that once they get a hold of themselves and manage to stand up, she makes a complete turnaround and compliments them suggests that her insults are only a way to motivate her audience. |
| 356 | * JeanneDArchetype: Downplayed. She encourages people, but doesn't demonstrate any fighting skills. However, as a commander of the Revolutionary Army, it's implied she has great fighting skills. |
| 357 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Big time. She spends her introduction referring to rank and file civilians as weak trash, before inspiring them with her Devil Fruit powers to rise up and fight back against Pinkbeard. When they succeed, she not only immediately gives them his unconscious body to turn in for the sizeable, 52 million bounty on his head (which they're in desperate need of, given that the Celestial Dragons tax them to the point of poverty), but also gives them a note with a direct contact line should they ever need the help of the Revolutionary Army again. |

| 362 | * RousingSpeech: Her Devil Fruit gives her super-powered speeches, that cause the listeners, even average civilians, to bulk up and become courageous enough to fight against pirates. Morley comments that it is linked to her waving her flag. |
| 363 | * ShoutOut: Her topless appearance, flag carrying and waving, rallying based abilities, and being a revolutionary make her one big shout out to the central figure in the painting ''Art/LibertyLeadingThePeople'' known as [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marianne Marianne]]. In the painting, Marianne the main figure leading the people is a topless woman holding the flag of the French Revolution who personifies the concept and Goddess of Liberty. |

| 402 | |
| 403 | He has a bounty of 400,000,000 Berries. |
| 404 | ---- |
| 405 | * AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: Downplayed. Since he has a speaking role at the end of the Dressrosa Arc, his name is revealed in the Anime before his actual and proper manga debut during the Reverie Arc. |
| 406 | * AnimalMotif: Crows. His name is a homonym for the Japanese word for "crow", he wears a plague doctor's mask that looks like a crow's beak as well as a feathered coat, and can turn into a murder of crows. |
| 407 | * AshesToAshes: Karasu wields a soot logia, allowing him to manipulate both soot as well as create crows, which are commonly associated with it. |
| 408 | * BadassCape: Wears a large feathered one that can also turn into his crows thanks to his Devil Fruit. |
| 409 | * BerserkButton: When people can't understand what Karasu is saying, he flips out. Unfortunately, he doesn't realize it's his fault for not using his mask speaker. |
| 410 | * CoolMask: Appropriate for his crow theme, he wears a plague doctor's mask which resembles a beak. |
| 411 | * CreepyGood: He's a pale, bald man with a dark cloak that can turn into crows, and his gaze is so frightening it scares some of Pinkbeard's pirates. Despite all these traits that make him appear like a villain, he's a revolutionary who helps the people and opposes the corrupted World Government. |
| 412 | * DarkIsNotEvil: Wears a black cloak that can generate a flock of crows, but he's a heroic character. |
| 413 | * EarlyBirdCameo: Almost literally. Appears at the end of the Dressrosa arc where Sabo rides on his crows to leave Dressrosa. There's also a very subtle hint of his powers when a crow delivers the newspaper to a revolutionary after the events of Marineford instead of the usual seagull. |
| 414 | * NoShirtLongJacket: Karasu only wears a big black feathery mantle, leaving his chest exposed. |
| 415 | * TheQuietOne: Subverted for laughs. Unlike the other commanders, Karasu appears to be quiet and stoic, making him even more creepy, and kills the pirates without uttering a word. However, it turns out he forgets that he can't be heard through the mask and needs to switch his speaker on. |
| 416 | * StevenUlyssesPerhero: When written in kanji, his name means "crow" in Japanese and he has eaten a Soot Logia that allows him to mimic the appearance of a murder of crows. However, his name is written in katakana, making it more a PunnyName with obvious meaning. |

| 424 | %%[[caption-width-right:250:some caption text]] |
| 425 | A girl with a big appetite who was fellow slaves with Kuma and Ivankov. She and Kuma managed to escape together and live peacefully in the Sorbet Kingdom. Later, after the Sorbet Kingdom's former king decided that the southern half of the Kingdom was no longer a part of the Sorbet Kingdom, meaning that the northern half could do whatever they wanted there, she rebelled alongside Kuma and was imprisoned. After Dragon and Ivankov rescued them, Kuma and Ginny joined the Freedom Fighters as they reformed into the Revolutionary Army, where Ginny eventually became their East Army commander before Belo Betty held the position. %%She was also Bonney’s mother, and died shortly after giving birth to her from a strange disease. |
| 426 | ---- |
| 427 | * BadassNormal: She doesn't have any crazy Devil Fruit or superhuman feats like Kuma and Ivankov, but she's still a respected Revolutionary who fights alongside Dragon himself. |
| 428 | * BigEater: She's introduced munching on a chicken leg. And once she and Kuma are free, the first thing she does is eat a massive meal, being moved to TearsOfJoy at feeling full for the first time in her life. [[spoiler: Her daughter Bonney shares this trait with her]]. |
| 429 | * BodyHorror: [[spoiler:She contracts a disease that crystalizes the victim's body with time, particularly while exposed to sunlight. It's not shown what her face looked like in her dying moments, but what little is shown of her arms and legs isn't a pretty sight.]] |
| 430 | * ChildhoodFriendRomance: She and Kuma would develop mutual feelings for each other as adults, and the only reason they never married was because of [[ItsNotYouItsMyEnemies Kuma's hangups regarding what happened to his parents]]. |
| 431 | * CoolBigSis: Being four years older than he was, she helped Kuma work to earn money, and defended him whenever he got bullied. |
| 432 | * TheCracker: Ginny was already a skilled thief and wiretapper who could easily transmit her own messages by the time Kuma met her. [[spoiler:Her leaking info on the native hunting game on God Valley got the attention of the Rocks and Roger pirates, and directly led to the God Valley incident.]] |
| 433 | * DudeMagnet: One of Ginny's defining characteristic is that she attracted lots of men after she became an adult. The villagers, the two friends whom she and Kuma have known as a kids, and even members of the Revolutionary Army were attracted to her. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, the World Nobles noted her beauty and kidnapped her to become the wife of one. Despite this, she only ever loved Kuma until the day she died]]. |
| 434 | * DyingDeclarationOfLove: [[spoiler:Her final words to Kuma are that she loves him and has always loved him. Sadly, Kuma never hears them, because he is busy transporting to where she is]]. |
| 435 | * GoodParents: [[spoiler:After she was freed from her captivity as a SexSlave due to her illness, she used what little time she had left to bring a baby Bonney to safety in the Sorbet Kingdom. This included traveling during the day, despite knowing it would only hasten her death]]. |
| 436 | * TheLostLenore: [[spoiler:She was the love of Bartholomew Kuma's life, but the two never became a couple due to Kuma's trauma over what happened to his parents. Then, she was kidnapped by a Celestial Dragon to become his slave wife, separating them for two years. Tragically, she was only freed when she contracted a lethal disease, which she succumbed to shortly after returning to the Sorbet Kingdom with her daughter. Kuma would then build a shrine in Ginny's honor and raise her daughter, Bonney, as his own in her memory.]] |
| 437 | * LoveInterest: She was Kuma's LoveInterest. In their twenties, she asked him to marry her because she knew he loved her back, but Kuma couldn't accept her proposal because his parents and he himself were enslaved because of his father's Buccaneer blood, and he feared them suffering the same fate had they started a family together. |
| 438 | * MissingMom: [[spoiler:She died when Bonney was only just a baby. Bonney only really knows about Ginny because of Kuma's stories and by peering into his memories herself.]] |
| 439 | * PietaPlagiarism: [[spoiler:Kuma holds her corpse in his hands similar to the Pieta, but his size means that he is holding her in his palms]]. |
| 440 | * PosthumousCharacter: [[spoiler:She's been dead for several years prior to being introduced, enough time for her daughter to have grown up and Kuma to have lost his will after becoming a cyborg.]] |
| 441 | * RememberTheNewGuy: She's introduced as being close enough to Iva to openly call herself his little sister, and was Kuma's love interest, [[spoiler:was responsible for the God Valley Incident that acted as cover for two of its core members to escape certain death]], but is never mentioned or referred to by anybody in the present day. [[spoiler:She was kidnapped and succumbed to a disease around the time Dragon saved Gray Terminal and Sabo.]] |
| 442 | * SexSlave: [[spoiler:He eventual fate is to be forced into a "marriage" with an unnamed Celestial Dragon. The fact that she had a baby with him indicates that he was physical with her at least once.]] |
| 443 | * SheIsAllGrownUp: She went from a rough-and-tumble tomboy as a child to a roguish beauty as an adult. [[spoiler: [[SoBeautifulItsACurse In a dark twist,]] her looks drew the attention of a World Noble, who kidnapped her and forced her to become one of his wives.]] |
| 444 | * SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Ginny has been in love with Kuma for a long time for his selflessness and kind heart. Even though he was too scared to marry her and their time in the Revolutionary Army, Ginny never lost her feelings for him [[spoiler:which makes her death all the more tragic as they [[UnresolvedSexualTension never resolved]] their feelings for each other and she didn't even get to see Kuma again before she succumbed to "Sapphire Scales".]] |
| 445 | * SmallRoleBigImpact: Ginny is never mentioned or shown as a major part of the Revolutionary Army, and is introduced in a flashback, but within two chapters of that, it's revealed that [[spoiler:''she caused the God Valley Incident'', which invoked pretty much every player in the world ending in a chaotic melee, and continues to have huge ramifications around the world by the present day, all whilst just being an ordinary slave with good wiretapping skills]]. |
| 446 | * ThereIsNoCure: [[spoiler:Her "Sapphire Scales" disease that she contracted while being the [[SexSlave "Wife"]] of the unnamed Celestial Dragon is incurable and claims her life]]. |
| 447 | * TooInjuredToSave: [[spoiler:Or rather too sick to save. She dies literally ''seconds'' before Kuma arrives, and even if he did it's unclear if his powers would even work on what she has]]. |
| 448 | * UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: PlayedWith. [[spoiler:She definitely intended to cause enough chaos on God Valley so she and the other slaves could nab the Devil Fruit prizes unnoticed, but she also unwittingly caused the God Valley incident that had huge, lasting ramifications on the world]]. |
| 449 | * ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: Although technically not in a romantic relationship with Kuma, she’s very protective of him, in part due to his SamaritanSyndrome making him too selfless for his own good. In addition to attacking anyone she perceived as taking advantage of his kindness, she tried to break him out of prison after he attacked slavers attempting to kidnap people in the southern half of the Sorbet Kingdom. |
| 450 | * YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:After being infected by the "Sapphire Scales" sickness, Ginny was thrown away like trash by the World Nobles and left to die, just barely able to make it to the Sorbert Kingdom to save her daughter Bonney.]] |

| 464 | |
| 465 | Inazuma is a Revolutionary officer and Ivankov's deputy commander of the G Army. He has eaten the Snip-Snip Fruit (''Choki Choki no Mi''), which allows him to turn his hands into large scissors that can cut solid objects like paper and even manipulate them like strips of paper, all while maintaining their other properties. Thanks to Ivankov's Devil Fruit Powers, he sometimes appears as a woman. |
| 466 | ---- |
| 467 | * AttractiveBentGender: Like his boss, he becomes very attractive in his female form. Though he is one of the few Okamas who are not {{Gonk}} in their male forms, so the difference is not that striking. |
| 468 | * CoolShades: He's always seen wearing a pair of shades that have one orange lens and one blue lens (though when a woman he pushes them up to his forehead). |
| 469 | * CulturedBadass: He is almost always carrying a wineglass, making him look classy and is one of the strongest members of the Revolutionary Army. |
| 470 | * GoodScarsEvilScars: Has a lightning bolt-shaped scar going down his forehead and right eye. |
| 471 | * PunnyName: "Inazuma" is Japanese for "lightning bolt", reflecting the shape of the scar on his face. |
| 472 | * SatelliteCharacter: As his main role is being Ivankov's sidekick and rarely has moments on its own. |
| 473 | * ShearMenace: The scissors' razor is [[AbsurdlySharpBlade so sharp]] that they can cut through virtually anything as if they were paper. Those cut by the scissors will also ''take on the properties of paper'' while retaining their general weight and hardness. |
| 474 | * TheStoic: As a guy, Inazuma is cool, calm, and professional, serving as a StraightMan to his boss (and the rest of the Okama as well.) As a woman, Inazuma averts this by being more openly amicable and warm. |
| 475 | * StraightGay: Among the only (if not ''the'' only) okama who doesn't act campy. |
| 476 | * WineIsClassy: Never seen without a glass in hand. |

| 542 | |
| 543 | The Fish-man Karate assistant instructor and an officer of the Revolutionary Army alongside Sabo, whom she is well-acquainted with. She was originally introduced in a flashback as a little slave girl who was liberated by Fisher Tiger and taken home by the Sun Pirates twelve years ago. After the unfair and prejudicial treatment her hometown and the Marines gave the Fish-men in return for her rescue that led to Fisher Tiger dying and refusing life-saving treatment with human blood transfusion, she later joined the Revolutionaries to set a better example, and became fast friends with another Fish-man, Hack, learning Fish-man Karate from him as his pupil. |
| 544 | ---- |
| 545 | * ActionGirl: First time we see her all grown up, she sits on some mooks she just beat up and it is revealed that she's a substitute Fish-man Karate teacher of the revolutionaries. Continuing her strong bond with the Fish-men, she learned it from fellow Revolutionary Hack when she was old enough to fight. |
| 546 | * AdaptationDyeJob: {{Zigzagged|Trope}}. In the manga, Koala had orange hair, but it was changed to brown when she was a child. By the next time she is seen as an adult, it is now orange. |
| 547 | * AngerBornOfWorry: When [[spoiler:Sabo shows up at Kamabakka after seemingly perishing in the destruction of Lulusia, Koala angrily launches a flurry of kicks at him... before hugging him and telling him how worried she was]]. |
| 548 | * BadassAdorable: She's every bit as cute as an adult as she was as a child, but a lot more powerful; she's skilled in Fish-man Karate, and her reintroduction shows her casually sitting on a large thug she just beat up. |
| 549 | * BadassNormal: She's just a young human woman who is ''really'' good at karate. |
| 550 | * BrokenBird: When the Sun Pirates free her, Koala is so traumatized by her life as a slave to the World Nobles that she keeps smiling and keeps herself constantly busy cleaning the ship to avoid being punished. She is so broken that ''even [[FantasticRacism Arlong]]'' is disgusted by that. Thankfully, Fisher Tiger tells Koala she's finally free and she cries all the tears she had suppressed when she was a slave. |
| 551 | * TheBusCameBack: First introduced as a child in a flashback in the Fish-Man Island arc, then reintroduced in the present as a young woman, in the Dressrosa arc. |
| 552 | * CharacterDevelopment: As a former slave child, Koala [[StepfordSmiler forced]] herself to be happy as to not be killed by the World Noble. Upon entering the Sun Pirates, she was finally allowed to express her emotions in anyway she wanted. By the time she reached adulthood, Koala has transformed into a kind, if hot-tempered, young woman who is trying to take down the corrupt World Government. |
| 553 | * DarkAndTroubledPast: She was a slave for some part of her life. And when she was returned to her family alive and well, her hometown let the Marines attack Fisher Tiger. If she knows the truth about that incident -- which she probably does -- it was almost certainly what propelled her to join the Revolutionary Army. |
| 554 | * FieryRedhead: Zigzagged. Thanks to AdaptationDyeJob, Koala goes through having (and not having) orange hair and while she's a definite NiceGirl, she also has a temper especially when dealing with Sabo's recklessness. |
| 555 | * {{Foil}}: To Nami. First, both are adopted into a group of Fish-men, but while Nami is enslaved, Koala is freed from her slave status. Second, when Koala became a Sun Pirate it was only temporary and she was allowed to cry, Arlong intended to enslave Nami forever and when she entered into his crew, she was forced to never cry. They both ended up with a permanent mark that replaced a former mark of enslavement and was a result of their affiliation with Fish-men pirates -- in Koala's case she was branded to replace a slave mark while Nami removed her Arlong tattoo with her own design. Also, while Koala had a pseudo father-daughter relationship with Tiger, Nami absolutely loathed Arlong, who also murdered her adoptive mother. |
| 556 | * GogglesDoNothing: Koala wears a pair on top of her hat. |
| 557 | * HappinessInSlavery: Subverted. She wasn't happy at all to be a slave, but had to fake happiness in order to hide her fear and sadness (see StepfordSmiler below). Because she's been a slave for a seemingly long time, she kept this facade even after being freed, not knowing how to live any other way. She slowly but surely got over it, though. |
| 558 | * MarkOfShame: Koala initially has on her back the slave mark of the Celestial Dragon but Tiger rebrands her just like the Sun Pirates. |
| 559 | * MoralityChain: To Macro and Arlong. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to actually make either of them good. |
| 560 | * MoralityPet: To [[ByronicHero Fisher]] [[KnightTemplar Tiger]]. Her innocence was enough to convince him that there may hope for positive relations between Fish-men and humans. A belief he finally announced on his deathbed. |
| 561 | * NiceGirl: She's a real sweetheart, including to the Sun Pirates. After she worked through some of her issues as a former slave, she was still a kind child that even Arlong couldn't harm. |
| 562 | * PerpetualSmiler: She's hardly ever seen without a smile on her face. It used to be forced because of her trauma as a slave, but it later became genuine. |
| 563 | * PintSizedPowerhouse: She's one of the shortest human characters in the series -- standing at only 160 cm (5'3) -- but she's known to be proficient in Fish-man Karate and was shown sitting on top of a very large thug she had presumably knocked out when introduced. Thanks to AdaptationExpansion, we get to see her in action in the anime and in video games like ''One Piece: Burning Blood''. |
| 564 | * RaisedByDudes: Downplayed. For a short time in her young life she was taken in and cared for by the Sun Pirates, who were all men. |
| 565 | * SheCleansUpNicely: She went from looking like [[http://images.wikia.com/onepiece/images/2/22/Koala.png a ragged servant]] to an [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/240px-koalalook_2791.png adorable and well-groomed girl]] during her time with the Sun Pirates, and then to a [[http://images.wikia.com/onepiece/images/3/3d/Koala_Anime_Infobox.png total cutie]] as an adult. |
| 566 | * SheIsAllGrownUp: She's filled out rather well when she shows up in the present. |
| 567 | * SlaveBrand: Like all other slaves of the Worlds Nobles, she bears the same mark. She later had the mark of the Sun Pirates branded over it. |
| 568 | * StepfordSmiler: Because she was a slave, she was scared of being killed by the World Nobles so she kept on a happy face to keep them from doing so. Tiger was able to help her stop doing it. Present day Koala still keeps her smile, but now it seems she does because she wants to. |
| 569 | * TagalongKid: To the Sun Pirates; she was a rescued slave who they decided to return to her island of origin, and they deeply cared about her. |
| 570 | * TearsOfJoy: After keeping tears in for who knows how long, Fisher Tiger told her that it is OK to cry, that they will not hurt anyone, and vowed to return her home. Cue Koala bursting into tears of joy. |
| 571 | * TokenHuman: When traveling with the Sun Pirates, Koala was the sole human until they reached her home. |
| 572 | * TookALevelInBadass: Who would have expected this meek little girl to have mastered Fish-man Karate? |
| 573 | * {{Tsundere}}: She has a temper and can lash out at Sabo, but quickly breaks down in tears whenever she learns he's ok, such as when he regained his memories [[spoiler:and returned alive after what happened to the Lulusia Kingdom]]. |
| 574 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Seems to have this type of friendship with Sabo, as she's introduced comforting him while he mourns Ace and seems fairly close to him... and later tugs on his face and yells at him angrily for his recklessness. |
| 575 | * WildHair: As a child, her hair was wild and spiky when she was first freed from slavery. Later, the Sun Pirates helped her clean up her appearance. |
