World Nobles... Slaves... Human shops... Against the "purity" of these "upper classes", the villains of the world look positively humane in comparison. It's because the world's in the hands of scum like them that it's all screwed to hell... I mean, we're not the nicest of guys, but at least we're honest about it.
~ Eustass Kid, commenting on the Celestial Dragons.
The Celestial Dragons are the Gods who created this world. To put it simply, the ones living here are the kings of the lower world. So its only natural for a God like him to get everything he wants.
~ Rob Lucci justifying the World Nobles actions.

The World Nobles, also commonly known as the Celestial Dragons, are the overarching antagonists of the One Piece franchise. As the descendants of the founders of the World Government, they are the highest social class in the world and act as the living embodiment of the corruption and hypocrisy the Government poses.

Because of their untouchable status and wealth, they are effectively above any and all laws that governs the world, allowing them to commit egregious crimes in broad daylight without fear of retribution. Due to this, they are among the most feared and hated groups in the known world, ironically even more so than pirates. They are the natural sworn enemies of those who hold D. in their names.

History[]

They are the descendants of the founders of the World Government, the organization that rules the One Piece world (which displays increasingly blatant corruption as the series progresses, the Celestial Dragons being the most telling example). They are all obscenely rich aristocrats who live in the Holy Land Marie Geois, where the headquarters of the World Government and the Marine HQ are located, and who all ironically has the epithet "Saint" before their name.

The Celestial Dragons are allowed to do absolutely anything they want without punishment. They can even get away with murder and slavery, making it so that they are not fully abolished for their use. No one can insult them without going to jail for 20 years and no one can even oppose them without getting targeted by one of the Three Marine Admirals, three of the most powerful characters of the entire series.

They indulged in the life of polygamy, regularly stealing married people's wives and making them their pets. In one instance, they executed the husband in broad daylight as they rode on humans like horses. Anyone who is at viewing distance must bow their heads if not risk the guaranteed possibility of imprisonment or worse. They must also not be touched by 'obscene' hands and are never seen walking with their own legs, even if the distance is short, always having a human or two to be their mobility devices.

They are all extremely obnoxious, scornful, rotten to the core, and corrupt people able to shoot anyone who crosses their ways, talks back, or even looks at them without enough deference; they can take anyone who pleases them as their slaves and send back to their "peasant" lives when they have no further need of them; they can spend ludicrous amounts of money to satisfy their whims and they all wear bubbles around their heads to avoid breathing the same air as "lowly commoners".

Although commoners bow in the presence of a Celestial Dragon, this is only out of fear and not out of respect or admiration, for the commoners feel nothing but absolute hatred and contempt for the Celestial Dragons because of their arrogance and cruelty towards humanity. However, they dare not attack for fear of becoming targets of an Admiral. As for the Celestial Dragons, they take this fear for granted and think that they are worth more than everyone else because of the long-past deeds of their distant ancestors. As such they make pretty extreme examples of eugenism and the stereotype of "Old Money".

Whenever any Celestial Dragons renounced their statuses and reduced themselves back to ordinary "humans", the rest would brand the renegade family as traitors. They will never return the family of traitors back as one of them told Homing to never call them again, and called him a "filthy human". Celestial Dragons also has no intentions of allowing those to become one of them such as King Sterry or York.

Most Celestial Dragons are obsessed with slave trades or their entitlement to "Heavenly Tributes". They make their slaves suffer through many unspeakable forms of torture and abuse, relishing in their agony and anguish as they did so to the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock for 4 long years when she was age 12 to 16 (which was her reason of her hatred towards men and the Government). They could even feed them devil fruits as a sick form of entertainment, showing their ostentatious lifestyle further.

Their brand on their slaves believe they are considered to be "properties" and "lesser human". When their slaves had successfully escaped from their so-called "masters", the Celestial Dragon will not tolerate until their slaves are found and brought back to their "owners" when send out Marines to find them.

Although the general population does not go against the Celestial Dragons out of fear of the Admirals, there are a small handful of people who are more than willing to ignore the Admirals and attack anyway;Monkey D. Luffy mercilessly punched a Celestial Dragon with all his strength in a room full of witnesses for shooting and mocking one of his friends, Fisher Tiger invaded Mary Geoise alone and freed countless slaves, Monkey D. Dragon is the leader of the Revolutionary Army who wants to change the world by overthrowing all of the Celestial Dragons to end their inhumane tyranny, as well as Rocks D. Xebec. If those who struck the Celestial Dragons escaped, the Celestial Dragons will shown their fury towards either the Marines or the Government agents for failing to capture their offends which they considered to be unacceptable.

200 years ago, the Celestial Dragon were attacked by the Iron Giant (a robot created 900 years).

40 years ago, at God's Valley, many of the Celestial Dragons and their slaves were attacked by the infamous and notorious pirate crew known as the Rocks Pirates led by Rocks D. Xebec and his subordinates which includes the likes of a young Charlotte Linlin, Kaido, Shiki and Edward Newgate. They were ultimately saved by the combined efforts of the future Pirate King Gol D Roger and Marine Hero Monkey D Garp.

The admirals and CP-0 are the direct subordinates of the Celestial Dragons. Although there are many members of the World Government who blindly follow them, even among them there are those who hate and despise them strongly;Sengoku explained that Garp hates and despises the Celestial Dragons (who he called them as scumbugs), just like his son and grandson, and has no real loyalty or respect for them. The only reason Garp never agreed to be promoted to Admiral was because he didn't want to become the Celestial Dragons' direct subordinate. Another example of this is Fujitora. Although he is technically a direct subordinate of the Celestial Dragons due to him being an Admiral, he also hates them for their cruelty and is not truly loyal to them as he intend to call down a meteor disregarding the World Nobles' safety and willingly allowed the Revolutionary Army to flee along with countless freed slaves by destroying all of their slave collars, much to the Celestial Dragons' fury towards Issho.

The Celestial Dragons considers those who holds D. in their names as their nature enemies as they are terrified of the D. family. They will do whatever means to eliminate every people with the surname D. even it meant mass extermination.

One month ago before Big Mom and Kaido's defeats, the Celestial Dragons were attacked by Sabo and the 3 Revolutionary Army Commanders (who destroyed the World Nobles' symbol and their food storage as well the severals of the Celestial Dragons' slaves were liberated). They summoned many of their forces including Admirals Ryokugyu and Fujitora. However, they've failed to capture any of the Revolutionary commanders (including Chief-in-Staff Sabo) as well Kuma was temporarily freed (until he came back to Mary Geoise for unknown reasons). Fujitora shown defiance towards the Celestial Dragons when he allows their slaves and the Revolutionary escaped, much as their displease. According to Emporio Ivankov, the Celestial Dragons will be poverty and starve now that their symbol and food storage are destroyed, making the World Government's military power to severely weakened. Their remnant food left are cake. However, their remnant food storage are destroyed due to Bartholomew Kuma's invasion. Kume later punched Jaygarcia Saturn. Luffy punched Saturn rapidly for what he did to his friends, as well sending the Elder flying towards the buildings.

Later on, the Celestial Dragons were cheering for Figarland Garling when executing Donquixote Mjosgard for protecting Shirahoshi and allowed Sabo, Leo and Sai escaped.

The Celestial Dragons ordered Fleet Admiral Sakazuki to eliminate Kuma since they cannot control him anymore. But when Kuma got away by using his powers, the Celestial Dragons shown their intolerance towards Akainu for failing them and insulted him of calling himself a Fleet Admiral for nothing, only for Sakazuki ignored their annoyances.

Trivia[]

  • The World Nobles greatly fear "the Will of D" who are their sworn enemies. Though the various things such as the Void Century, the One Piece and the kingdom that the Five Elders refuse to be known heavily imply that those with the initial "D." are descendants of the royal family of the kingdom that was destroyed by 20 Kingdoms that founded the Celestial Dragons. The "D." being tied to royalty was revealed to be partially true with the existence of Nefertari D. Lily as the Nefertari line was apart of the original 20 kingdoms, but refused to be part of the world nobles, however multiple" D.s" don't have blood ties to the Nefertari line making the the possibility of them being members of the "D." being tied to the destroyed kingdom is unknown.
  • Those of Admiral rank in the Marines become direct subordinates of the Celestial Dragons. In the Wano Country Arc, it was revealed that Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp voluntarily refused to become an Admiral due to him being a D. who personally dislike the Celestial Dragons, and Garp's popularity and accomplishments is the the only reason why the Celestial Dragons cannot remove him from his position.
