What are Celestial Dragons in One Piece?

In One Piece, the Celestial Dragons, also known as the Tenryuubito, are the highest-ranking nobles in the world, positioned at the very pinnacle of the global power hierarchy. They are descendants of the Twenty Kings who, 800 years ago, founded the World Government after the defeat of the Ancient Kingdom.

Their ancestral lineage grants them an almost god-like status, allowing them to live in untouchable luxury and wield immense political influence.

The Celestial Dragons reside in the holy land of Mary Geoise, located at the top of the Red Line, far removed from the world’s conflicts and hardships. This physical separation from the world mirrors their disdain and disconnect from ordinary people, whom they consider beneath them.

How Many Celestial Dragons are There in One Piece?

Here are some of the most notable Celestial Dragons:

  • Saint Charlos: One of the most infamous Celestial Dragons, known for his arrogance and cruelty. He attempts to enslave individuals like Boa Hancock and Shirahoshi. Charlos is publicly humiliated when Luffy punches him at the Sabaody Archipelago.
  • Saint Rosward: The father of Charlos, who shares his son's cruel attitude toward others. He participates in the slave auction at the Sabaody Archipelago and treats others with disdain.
  • Saint Shalulia: Charlos' sister, equally cruel and disrespectful toward slaves and commoners, exemplifying the ruthless nature of the Celestial Dragons.
  • Donquixote Mjosgard: A rare exception among the Celestial Dragons. After being saved by Queen Otohime, Mjosgard experiences a change of heart and becomes an ally of the Ryugu Kingdom, showing a level of empathy and justice that is uncommon among the Celestial Dragons.
  • Donquixote Homing: The father of Donquixote Doflamingo. Homing renounced his status as a Celestial Dragon in an attempt to live as a commoner. However, this decision led to tragedy for his family, as they were rejected and persecuted by the people, which ultimately fueled Doflamingo's hatred and ambition for power.

These characters highlight the oppressive and corrupt nature of the Celestial Dragons, serving as a representation of the inequality and abuse of power prevalent in the One Piece world.
