Key Takeaways
- The One Piece is a mysterious object, sought after by pirates like Luffy, but not all are interested in its power.
- Dracule Mihawk, focused on being the strongest swordsman, sees the One Piece as both more effort and yet less worthy of effort compared to maintaining his title.
- Enel and Hody Jones, despite their strength and desire to accumulate power, have little interest in the One Piece, each pursuing different goals.
As I delve into these formidable characters from the One Piece universe, I can’t help but marvel at their diverse backgrounds and motivations. Hody Jones, for instance, seems to be a man blinded by ambition, unschooled by life’s harsh realities. Unlike Arlong, he lacks personal experiences with humans, which might explain his unwillingness to compromise or even use them as pawns. Instead, he’s ready to wage war against humanity, an audacious goal that seems to have overshadowed any semblance of reason or strategy.
In the world of “One Piece,” the enigmatic One Piece is a powerful item that has sparked pirate adventures for countless years. Previously owned by Gol D. Roger, the infamous “King of the Pirates,” it’s associated with the title he held. Interestingly, Roger wished for someone else to find it after him, and his final words about it at his execution inspired a new wave of aspiring pirates. Monkey D. Luffy is one such pirate pursuing the One Piece as a personal ambition, but others, both friends and foes, are motivated by the potential power hidden within it. Remarkably, some antagonistic characters seem content without this legendary treasure.
5 Dracule Mihawk
The World’s Strongest Swordsman
Dracule Mihawk, renowned as a living legend, primarily focuses on finding or cultivating a contender capable of seizing the title of the World’s Strongest Swordsman from him. Despite easily overpowering Roronoa Zoro during their initial encounter, he recognized potential in the young pirate and decided to mentor him. Most adversaries find Mihawk an extremely challenging foe. His sword strikes are potent enough to wipe out entire pirate crews, and very few have demonstrated the capacity to keep pace with his strength when he fights in earnest.
Although Mihawk boasts numerous achievements, he appears reluctant or unwilling to seriously pursue the One Piece. It’s possible that he perceives the effort involved as excessively great, even compared to the effort required for earning his title. This might be due to the fact that seeking the One Piece demands more than just physical power and skill; it requires a multitude of other factors as well. Notably, Mihawk has spent most of his career without a pirate crew, suggesting he may have shown little interest in developing a team with the abilities necessary for reaching the One Piece.
As Mihawk assumed a share of leadership within Cross Guild, it was actually Buggy, the sham head, who proposed the quest for the One Piece. Whether Mihawk will readily accommodate his subordinates’ wishes is uncertain, but for now, he maintains an air of disinterest towards this notion.
4 Enel
The Former “God” of Skypiea
The inhabitant of this floating island displays an insatiable thirst for power. He ruthlessly devastates his own island, Birka, and subsequently seizes control over Skypiea by force, proclaiming himself as its ruler. Enel, moreover, accumulated a significant following within his self-created group known as God’s Army. He proved to be an exceptionally tough adversary, bested only when Monkey D. Luffy, a sea-faring pirate with the ability to counteract his Devil Fruit powers, arrived on the scene.
Although he possesses considerable power, it appears that Enel shows little inclination towards acquiring the One Piece or any associated power. This indifference towards external matters suggests a certain level of detachment. Instead, his focus is on finding the Fairy Vearth, a mythical Birkan land believed to be the moon. After defeating an extraterrestrial pirate gang and making friends with the automated inhabitants there, Enel seems quite content with being the ruler of the moon at present.
3 Hody Jones
Captain of the New Fish-Man Pirates
This formidable shark-human character, Hody Jones, aspired for global dominance among his fellow shark-humans. This ambition was fueled by the prejudiced views Arlong shared with him and his comrades during childhood, though Hody himself had no direct encounters with humans or their bigotry. Unlike Arlong, Hody was ready to inflict harm on other shark-humans who obstructed his path, a stark contrast to Arlong’s more lenient approach.
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but observe that Hody’s actions and convictions hint at a lack of exposure to the broader world. He seemed to harbor an audacious ambition: eradicating humanity, a feat that would undoubtedly encounter numerous obstacles. Yet, unfazed by these challenges, he persisted, driven by his convictions.
2 Magellan
Impel Down’s Vice Warden
The primary warden here appears to be allied with the World Government, who, in their dealings with One Piece, have a rather intricate bond. While specifics about the nature of the treasure remain obscure, given how they handled Pirate Roger, it seems plausible that the government are cautious about it due to not wanting another pirate to discover something they don’t want another pirate to uncover, symbolically speaking.
Instead of being preoccupied with pirates or criminals as a whole, Magellan appears to be primarily concerned with Impel Down, the prison he once governed. His interest in these individuals seems limited to their incarceration status. When it comes to apprehending these offenders, Magellan typically defers to the Marines. In fact, he seemed comfortable discussing matters even with Donquixote Doflamingo upon the pirate’s imprisonment. While Magellan may potentially clash with a hypothetical Pirate King if they crossed paths, such conflicts would likely fall under the purview of other government officials.
1 Crocodile
The Founder and True Leader of the Cross Guild
Originally, Crocodile harbored ambitions to be the Pirate King himself. But those dreams were squashed swiftly when Emperor Whitebeard handed him a crushing defeat. Since that moment, he shifted his focus on acquiring power elsewhere, aiming to control Alabasta and projecting an image as a hero. By the time the Straw Hat Pirates crossed paths with him, he had abandoned his quest for the One Piece. His scheme to take over Alabasta was thwarted by the Straw Hat Pirates, leading Crocodile to be imprisoned.
Following their alliance to flee Impel Down, Crocodile held minimal concern for Luffy’s pirate activities or the One Piece. However, his fascination with power persisted, leading him to establish the Cross Guild – a group that placed bounties on marine captures. Yet, much like Mihawk, Crocodile found himself unintentionally drawn into the hunt for the One Piece due to Buggy’s enthusiasm for this pursuit. As he abandoned this quest years ago, it’s likely that he harbors complex emotions about being forced to re-approach it once more.
