It is later revealed that Big Mom intended to give the Fish-Fish Fruit to Charlotte Katakuri before Kaido stole it.^{[ch. 1160][ch. 1165]}

Kaido's a believer in might makes right and has subjugated several pirates by breaking their wills. He's rather unstable and prone to changing his mind as he both wants a death as glorious as Whitebeard, but also wants a worthy enemy as he has spent a long time without any opponent that matched his power, along with often shifting from open cruelty and mocking to respect towards his adversaries. Kaido was on the verge of being executed several times and has a fondness for attempting suicide as a hobby, but he always ends up unscathed due to his great resilience, being known in the world as "The Strongest Creature" (最強の生物, Saikyō no Seibutsu).

At one point, Kaido and King were held on Punk Hazard. Previously, he faced Kozuki Oden, who was the only person capable of deeply injuring him, leaving Kaido with a massive and permanent scar on his chest after nearly killing him. He was allied for years with Kurozumi Orochi to rule the Wano Country together upon disposing of Kozuki Oden, until Kaido betrayed him and announced his daughter Yamato would be the country's new shogun, which his child vehemently opposed. Kaido had a bounty of 4,611,100,000, being the highest active bounty of any current pirate.^[2] Kaido is also capable of using the advanced application for all types of Haki. After a long grueling fight with Luffy and his allies, Kaido was defeated by an awakened Luffy and his allies, whom he saw as the next coming of Joy Boy, falling into a volcano with Big Mom prior to its eruption.

Buggy

Buggy (バギー, Bagī) is a clown-themed pirate with a preference for fighting with knives, a love of cannons, and a prominent red nose. While a junior member of the Roger Pirates, he gets hold of a devil fruit and a treasure map, intending to sell the fruit and search for the treasure, but Shanks accidentally causes him to swallow the fruit and drop the map into the sea, earning Buggy's resentment.^{[ch. 19, 434]} Having consumed the Paramecia-type Chop-Chop Fruit (バラバラの実, Bara Bara no Mi), Buggy can separate his body into levitating parts and control them independently as long as they remain close, and at least one of his feet is on the ground. This ability also makes him immune to cutting attacks which will only separate him into parts.^{[ch. 526f.][13]} Following the Roger Pirates' dissolution, Buggy becomes captain of the Buggy Pirates and achieves limited notoriety as "Buggy the Clown" (道化のバギー, Dōke no Bagī).^[ch. 9] Eventually his involvement in the first mass breakout of Impel Down, and the Paramount War, earns him a sizable following of escapees and worldwide infamy as "The Genius Jester" (千両道化, Senryō Dōke), and a seat among the Seven Warlords of the Sea.^{[ch. 549, 700]}

In the anime series, Buggy the Clown's voice actor is Shigeru Chiba.^[3] In the 4Kids dub, he is voiced by David Wills.^[4] In the Funimation dub, his voice is supplied by Mike McFarland.^[5] In the live-action series, he is portrayed by Jeff Ward.

Oda said that Buggy is his favorite antagonist, because of all of them he is the easiest to draw.^[19] Buggy has received much praise and criticism. Carl Kimlinger of Anime News Network said that Luffy's fight with Buggy "sets the series' precedent for battles that are simultaneously tense and hilarious".^[20] Jacob Hope Chapman of the same site said that seeing Buggy during the Jaya Arc was "entertaining".^[21] Bryce Coulter of Mania Entertainment praised Chibi Buggy's Adventure as one of the best arcs, and Buggy for his "slap-stick humour" and "Voltron-esque combining sequence".^[22] He was "disappointed" that Buggy, Smoker, and the Strawhats did not have a conflict at sea.^[23] On Luffy and Buggy's alliance in Impel Down, Chris Beveridge said, "the two do make an amusing pairing as their flight through the first level goes on". He went on to say, "he never really cared for Buggy", but the Impel Down arc turned him into an "engaging character".^[24] He said that he believes that Buggy is being set up as a regular character because he was "afraid he might lose him".^[25] Pedro Cortes of Japanator said, "Buggy is always good for a laugh, so his bit was a welcomed respite from the oppressive marines beating down Luffy and the Whitebeard pirates."^[26]

Crocodile

"Sir" Crocodile (サー・クロコダイル, Sā Kurokodairu) is a pirate with the ability of the Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit (スナスナの実, Suna Suna no Mi), allowing him to generate and control sand,^[ch. 170] absorb moisture with his right hand,^[ch. 201] and, as long as he is not wet, turn his body into sand.^[ch. 199] He wears a large golden alloy hook in place of a left hand,^[ch. 160] which contains a potent poison and a dagger underneath.^[ch. 204] Initially a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea,^[ch. 113] his title is revoked by Tashigi when it is discovered that he, under the code name of "Mr. 0" (ミスター・ゼロ, Misutā Zero),^{[ch. 127, 211]} headed the criminal organization known as Baroque Works as president and attempted a coup of Alabasta. He was subsequently arrested after he was defeated by Luffy.^[ch. 113]

Sometime after the mass-prison break at Impel Down, Crocodile later founded the Cross Guild along with Mihawk and becomes one of its chief officers.^[ch. 1058]

In the original Japanese series, he is voiced by Ryūzaburō Ōtomo.^[27] In the 4Kids adaptation, Crocodile is voiced by David Brimmer.^[28] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by John Swasey.^[16] In the live-action series, Crocodile is portrayed by Joe Manganiello.^[29]

Dracule Mihawk

Dracule Mihawk (ジュラキュール・ミホーク, Jurakyūru Mihōku), also called "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk (鷹の目のミホーク, Taka no Me no Mihōku), is a pirate who is one of the former Seven Warlords of the Sea and the strongest swordsman in the One Piece universe.^{[ch. 50, 52, 69]} His primary weapon is a Grosse Messer that Mihawk calls Yoru. He also often carries around a dagger that he conceals in a crucifix pendant. His personal ship is called the Hitsugibune, an all-black boat that resembles a coffin and has candles lit on the edges that burn with green fire.^{[ch. 50, ?]} The Hitsugibune's mast is notable for the fact that it is shaped like Yoru.

Physically, in the manga, anime, and live-action, Mihawk is a tall man with pale skin and black hair (generally has distinctive side burns and a beard), a muscular build, and a generally deadpan expression. His most distinctive physical trait are his yellow-and-black eyes, which are the source of his nickname "Hawk-Eye" Mihawk. Mihawk commonly wears a white shirt and a black coat and hat with red as a secondary coloring.

Mihawk is a loner and solitary in his nature. He has a deadpan and reserved demeanor that fully matches his general expression. Unlike many pirates in the world of One Piece, Mihawk does not have a crew and usually travels and lives alone. Mihawk is very self-confident in his abilities and his status as the world's greatest swordsman, but he is always eager to test his abilities against new opponents and has an equal level of appreciation for the skills and work ethics of others for his own and is not arrogant. For example, Mihawk is one of the few people to actually respect Luffy's abilities and ambitions and sees him as a capable and brave warrior instead of a foolhardy boy/young man many of Luffy's enemies mistakenly believe him to be.

Due to his dream of becoming the world's greatest swordsman, Zoro aims to one day defeat Mihawk in a duel. Zoro first challenged Mihawk to a duel to the death when the latter was hunting the pirate captain Don Krieg at Baratie and lost, though Mihawk deemed that despite not being a worthy opponent for him at that point, Zoro would be able to grow into a worthy competitor given the time and allowed him to live. Mihawk even trained Zoro during the series' two year time jump due to a combination of reasons: he was humored by the concept of training a man who sought to one day kill him and take his title and he respected Zoro's dedication to his craft and his skill and for putting aside his pride so that he could help Luffy and his friends by continuing to hone his skills as a combatant. After the Warlord system is abolished Mihawk created the Cross Guild with Crocodile which he still operates at the present time in the show.^[ch. 1058]

Takeshi Aono provided his voice in the anime until 2010,^[30] after which he was replaced by Hirohiko Kakegawa.^[31] In the 4Kids English adaptation, he is voiced by Wayne Grayson.^[32] In the Funimation English adaptation, his voice is supplied by John Gremillion.^[5]

Dracule Mihawk is portrayed by Steven John Ward as an adult and by Theo Le Ray during his younger days in the live-action adaptation of One Piece.
