Line 6:
=== "Red-Haired" Shanks ===
[[File:Shanks_9070.png|frame]]
Line 33 ⟶ 32:
* [[Generation Xerox]]: Luffy is becoming more and more like him, rather than Roger, although Shanks notices the similarities in the two's personalities. However, Luffy is more passive while Roger {{spoiler|had a violent temper in battle that led (indirectly) to the deaths of both his [[Friendly Enemy]] Whitebeard and his own son}}.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: The scars across his eye? [[Big Bad|Blackbeard]] gave Shanks those scars before Shanks lost his arm and before Blackbeard gained his Devil Fruit powers.
* [[Handicapped Badass]]: He has only one arm, but can defeat an army of men who each have two.
* [[Implausible Fencing Powers]]: When you're known to be Mihawk's former sparring partner and said spars are said to have shaken the Grand Line...
** When he and Whitebeard crossed blades, they cut the sky in half. ''The sky!''
Line 79:
=== Kaido ===
[[File:Kaidophoto_2421.jpg|frame]]
Kaido is the third of the Four Emperors to be mentioned. Very little is known about him, except that Gekko Moriah fought him sometime in the past, lost, and had his crew killed. In the present time, Kaido tried to make a grab for power while Whitebeard was focused on fighting at the Marines' headquarters, {{spoiler|but Shanks prevented him from doing so. With Shanks showing up at Marineford, it is unknown what exactly went down between the two}}.
{{spoiler|Lost one of his favorite islands to "Red Flag" X. Drake of the Eleven Supernovas, but there's no word on how he reacted to it}}.
* [[Draconic Demon]]: Kaido's Devil Fruit allows him to transform from an already gargantuan human to a truly titanic Eastern dragon with control over fire, lightning, and wind.
* [[Evil Overlord]]: Kaido seems to have dozens of underlings, allies, and islands under his control.
* [[Evil Versus Evil]]: Kaido vs. Moriah, though it's implied Moriah wasn't so bad back then.
Line 103 ⟶ 101:
** {{spoiler|Also important to know others say he just wanted to wipe out Whitebeard when he was distracted on getting to Marineford}}.
▲=== Charlotte Linlin -- "Big Mam". ===
[[File:481px-Big_Mom_portrait_2020.png|frame]]
Line 124 ⟶ 120:
* {{spoiler|[[I'm a Humanitarian]]}}: See [[Bad Boss]].
* [[Large and In Charge]]
* [[Mook Maker]]: {{spoiler|Her Devil Fruit can give anything a soul, turning it into an [[Animate Inanimate Object]] (which she calls her "homies"). While she can use this on things like trees, rocks, and houses, she can also use it on meteorological phenomena (like clouds or rainbows) or intangible things like fire. She's even done so with her hat!}}
* [[Nice Hat]]: Her pink pirate hat, which {{spoiler|she has brought to life with her Devil Fruit power; it's name is "Napoleon".}}
* [[Nightmare Face]]: Especially on her [[Wanted Poster]]; one has to wonder if whoever the photographer was survived taking it.
* [[Slasher Smile]]
* [[The Smurfette Principle]]: The only one of the Four Emperors to be female.
* [[Sweet Tooth]]: {{spoiler|Now that Whitebeard is dead, she's taken over protecting Fishman Island in exchange for lots and lots of candy. If you don't give enough candy to her, [[Disproportionate Retribution|well...]]}}
* [[Villainous Glutton]]: When you {{spoiler|eat your own henchmen and destroy islands for not giving you candy}}, you're pretty much this.
* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: {{spoiler|The power of the ''Soru Soru no Mi'' has no effect on a foe who does not fear death. While most of her subjects are easy prey to it, hardened pirates like the Straw Hats can easily shrug it off.}}
* [[Worthy Opponent]]: {{spoiler|When Luffy stands up to her in defense of Fishman Island missing their scheduled payment of candy, she decides to pursue him instead, despite being fairly sure that he's just taking the blame to spare them. The fact that he's willing to do so at all impresses her.}}
* [[You Don't Look Like You]]: [http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120101192607/onepiece/images/9/9b/BigMomGP.jpg Big Mom's silhouette]{{Dead link}} from Garp's explanation of the Emperors looks incredibly different from what we've seen of her final design.
== {{spoiler|Marshall D. Teach -- "Blackbeard"}} ==
Line 138 ⟶ 136:
-----
=== Edward Newgate -- "Whitebeard" ===
[[File:Whitebeard_4142.png|frame]]
Line 156 ⟶ 153:
* [[A Father to His Men]]: Every pirate in his crew is considered his son, and they consider each other brothers. Strangely enough there doesn't seem to be any daughters/sisters...
** At least one of his captains, Haruta, seems to be a tomboysh girl. And since this habit extends to his allies as well, there are definitely "daughters" like [[Action Girl|White Bay]].
* [[Affectionate Nickname]]: He was called "Pops" or "Old Man" (Specifically, ''Oyaji'', an informal variation of "father") by his crew.
* [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy]]: In his first few appearances in the series, Whitebeard comes off as seeming to think that any decision he makes is the correct one regardless of potential consequences, even brushing off warnings from fellow Emperor Shanks. However, this later turns out to be a [[Jerkass Facade]], as Whitebeard demonstrates that he isn't nearly as full of himself as he would like you to believe. Most likely he wanted to make sure he had a reputation for being fearsome and unreasonable to help keep the islands under his protection safe.
* '''''[[Badass]]''''': Indisputably the most [[Badass]] character in the series.
** [[Badass Boast]]: '''"''I. AM. WHITEBEARD''!"''' Let's face it, it's all he needs.
** [[Badass Crew]]: You wouldn't be a member of this guy's crew unless you were pretty badass yourself.
** [[Badass Grandpa]]: ''72'' years old, but still capable of tearing an Admiral several new assholes.
** [[Badass Longcoat]]: Almost as [[Badass]] as his moustache.
Line 169 ⟶ 168:
* [[Call Back]]: A Devil Fruit with the power to make tsunamis was first mentioned by Morgan in the very first explanation of Devil Fruits we ever got in-series.
* [[Captain Color Beard]]: Obviously.
* [[Cool Old Guy]]: At 72 years old, he was more like the ''coolest'' old guy in the series!
* [[Cooldown Hug]]: After his ally, Squad, stabbed him and accused him of selling out his allies thanks to the Marines [[Batman Gambit|leaking false information to him]], Whitebeard gives him one, reassures him he would never abandon a single one of them, then charges into the fray to kick major ass.
* [[Covered with Scars]]: Whitebeard is covered with scars on every part of his body. Except his back: He never showed it to an enemy once.
* {{spoiler|[[Death by Irony]]}}: {{spoiler|All he wanted was a family, and one of his "sons" kills him. Admittedly he had already basically disowned the guy, but the point still stands}}.
* [[Determinator]]
* [[The Dreaded]]: Simply bellowing his name was all it took to send ''most'' of the Marines at Marineford running for cover.
* {{spoiler|[[Died Standing Up]]}}: {{spoiler|To further prove how badass he is}}.
* {{spoiler|[[Dying Moment of Awesome]]}}: {{spoiler|His final action, after spending the previous several chapters being stabbed, shot, bombarded, and having ''half his face melted off by lava'', was to fight Blackbeard one-on-one and [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|own him so thoroughly]] that the ''entire Blackbeard Pirates crew'' had to jump in before he stomped their captain like a bug. And even though all of that finally killed him... it still [[Died Standing Up|wasn't enough to make him fall]]}}.
Line 199 ⟶ 200:
** [[Asskicking Equals Authority]]: ''Definitely'' the strongest person alive. {{spoiler|Not anymore, though. Alive, that is.}}
** [[Charles Atlas Superpower]]: The most extreme example so far.
** [[Foe-Tossing Charge]]: He's the ''One Piece'' world's response to [[The Lord of the Rings|Sauron]], it seems.
** [[Genius Bruiser]]: Turns out Whitebeard's no slouch on [[The Chessmaster|chess playing]]. He saw half of Sengoku's moves during the Marineford Arc coming; had he not, the Whitebeard Pirates and allies would have been finished far earlier than expected. It could also be said that both Sengoku and Whitebeard consider the other their [[Worthy Opponent]] in strategy.
** [[Ki Attacks]]: A confirmed Haki user.
Line 209 ⟶ 210:
** [[Superpower Lottery]]: [[Word of God]] is that the powers of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, a Paramecia-class, are '''no less''' than those of a ''Logia''. Even excluding that, the man is downright impressive.
** [[Super Toughness]]: For this man, [[There Is No Kill Like Overkill]] is the minimum amount of force required to even make him ''flinch''. Sword to the gut? That tickles. Several more? Tch. Cannon to the face? A pebble. ''{{spoiler|Half his fucking face melted off!}}''? Minor annoyance.
** [[World's Strongest Man]]: Literally referred to as such, and he more than lives up to it. Although, he may have once competed for that title with Gol D. Roger himself.
* [[Odd Friendship]]: {{spoiler| He was once one of the Rock Pirates, a group that included Big Mom and Kaidou. It seems odd that he'd associate with such violent criminals, although "friend" might be the wrong word to use, as that crew didn't get along very well anyway.}}
* [[Only a Flesh Wound]]: Refers to his stab wound by Squad, after the latter tries to pull a [[Redemption Equals Death]], as "a little scratch", and {{spoiler|having nearly half of his head burnt clean off by Akainu merely gets him to speak one sentence in [[Tranquil Fury]] mode: "I'm just getting started"}}.
* [[Papa Wolf]]: Never kill or threaten to kill a member of his crew, unless you want a war you have a high probability of losing.
Line 217 ⟶ 219:
** {{spoiler|Technically, there were a few wounds on his back... where the swords went ''clean through'' his front! ''Said swords had been stuck in there for the past ten or so issues''. [[Annoying Arrows]] are nothing compared to Annoying ''Swords''}}.
* [[Rated "M" for Manly]]: [[Up to Eleven]]
* [[The Rival]]: Used to be this to Gol D. Roger himself.
* [[Red Baron]]: He's either "Whitebeard" or "Pops", never "Edward Newgate".
* {{spoiler|[[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]}}: {{spoiler|After Ace's death.}}
