Donquixote Pirates

The Donquixote Pirates are a group that feature in One Piece.

History

The Donquixote Pirates (Japanese: ドンキホーテ海賊団, Hepburn: Donkihōte Kaizoku-dan) were a notorious group of pirates that came to form under the leadership of Donquixote Doflamingo. Donquixote Doflamingo along with his brother Donquixote Rosinante were originally World Nobles within the World Government. However, they lost their statuses when their father decided to abandon his title and instead wished for his family to live modestly amongst commoners. They came to suffer from poverty and after revealing their former noble status they faced persecution. Two years of suffering made Doflamingo awaken his Haoshoku Haki, gaining loyalty from four young knowledgeable people named Vergo, Trebol, Diamante and Pica. They had granted him the Ito Ito no Mi Devil Fruit alongside an ornate flintlock where they acknowledged him as their king. Doflamingo later used the pistol to kill his father under the belief that this would allow him to return to his former status as a noble. He intended to return to Mary Geoise bringing his father's head as a tribute. However, they revealed that any noble who left the holy land were barred from returning and thus Doflamingo was denied his request. Instead, he escaped from the Holy Land with knowledge of its national treasure to blackmail the Celestial Dragons for his lost rights. As he was no longer allowed to return to Mary Geoise for his father's irreversible choice, Doflamingo was forced to become a pirate while his younger brother, Rosinante, disappeared to become a Marine. Doflamingo swore to destroy the very world that his former fellow Celestial Dragons lord over. When Doflamingo returned to North Blue after escaping Mary Geoise, his four friends swore their loyalty to Doflamingo and said that no one would stand against Doflamingo, the future Pirate King, as he stood on a pile of wreckage, and they bowed before him. Whatever displeased Doflamingo was swiftly and utterly destroyed by the four loyal friends, whether it was someone who offended him or a town with poorly paved streets. This left a swath of destruction and corpses in their wake, and the crew became infamous in North Blue.

They then gathered a crew, with Doflamingo being the captain, while Rosinante later on became the second Corazon after Vergo retired from the position and left to join the marines as a spy for Doflamingo. Conversely, Rosinante wished to stop Doflamingo's madness, and secretly joined the Marines to spy on him. Around 16 years ago, with the exception of Monet, Sugar, and Violet, all the other officers had already joined Doflamingo's crew. Giolla found a newborn Dellinger, a half-fish-man who was abandoned at birth, and thus adopted him and raised him to be part of the crew. At this point, besides other regular pirating activities, they dealt in trade of Devil Fruits. The crew had as much as 100 people attempting to join, only to leave in tears after two days from the extreme regimen. Anyone ranked 'officer or higher' were considered to be Doflamingo's family, as he lost his mother at age 8 and killed his father two years later. Eleven years ago, Doflamingo killed Rosinante, after his younger brother had taken a young new recruit, Trafalgar Law, away from the crew to find a cure for the Amber Lead Syndrome, which also aroused the suspicion that Marines had stopped attacking the crew since Rosinante's departure. Rosinante's treachery was later confirmed by Vergo. This incident left the Heart seat, and the title Corazon, vacant. Law, who came to admire Rosinante for all the care they shared during this six month journey, swore revenge on Doflamingo for this murder, despite Doflamingo seeing Law as a brother and even reserving the title and seat Corazon for him. In the same year of Rosinante's death and Law's defection, shortly after the event, Doflamingo came across the sisters Monet and Sugar, both of whom were living in a terrible environment. He rescued them from the painful lifestyles, and gave them their respective Devil Fruits one year later. The two sisters decided to lay down their lives for the very man who rescued them from a hellish place and gave them power, swearing undying loyalty to Doflamingo. Prior to the crew's departure into the Grand Line, they were approached by the Bellamy Pirates, who swore their allegiance to the crew, and were permitted to use its Jolly Roger.

Overview

In appearance, the Donquixote Pirates were a crew of pirates that operated in the world. Many of its members possessed superhuman traits some of which stemmed from the use of Devil Fruits. The crew's jolly roger was a smiley being crossed out with this symbol also being used by several of Doflamingo's affiliates.

Originally, they roamed the seas on-board their ship but later came to rule the kingdom of Dressrosa as their governing body, with their captain as the king.
