Fishman
Fishmen are one of two species that dominate the seas (the other being the Merfolk). As slaves they sell for 1000000 beli, In terms of leadership, none are mentioned, however Fisher Tiger, Jinbei and Arlong were said to have the highest respect amongst their people.
Biology
Arlong, a member of the Fishman race.
Appearance-wise, they are more “fish-like” than merfolk, looking like a cross between a man and a fish of the ocean such as an octopus, manta ray, or sawfish; however, they still have legs. They have their gills near their necks which only work when they are in water. On land they can breathe with their lungs like humans do. They are ten times as strong as normal humans from birth, and this difference is magnified underwater, where a human’s power is cut in half (while Fishmen are completely unhindered, and perhaps even strengthened).
Even though Fishmen are part fish, they are still mammals and give birth to live young.
As was revealed during the Davy Back Fight arc with Big Pan Fishmen can also breed with Giants, producing a hybrid who has biological abilities of a Fishmen and a huge body of a Giant (but still smaller than a full one, as related by Robin), they are known as Wotan. Although never shown it’s clear that Fishmen and humans can also breed the same way Merfolk and humans can breed.
Inter-species Relationships
Their view of life under the sea is dominated by their views that they should rule over all other fish in the sea. Despite this view, usually they get along well with the Merfolk who share the opposite view on life, however it is not unknown for Fishmen to take advantage of the Merfolk’s nature. Because of their strength, they appear in One Piece on a regular basis.
A stereotypical Fishman considers humans an inferior, weaker species. However, this does not apply to all Fishmen: for example, the puffer fish shipwright Tom cared and looked after two human children (Iceburg and Franky) and even protected them from the actions of Spandam and CP5, and even the Shichibukai, Jinbei, considers the Whitebeard Pirate, Portgas D. Ace an equal and holds the Whitebeard Pirates as a group in high regard because of Whitebeard protecting Fishman Island.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, human relationship to the Fishmen was defined with their definition of both them and merpeople as “fish” instead of “men”. This lead to centuries of discrimination as the Fishmen fought to prove their worth to the world. Only two hundred years ago did the World Government began to bridge the gap, making an alliance with Fishman Island to remove the problems between the two sides. While attempting to fix the problem, centuries of bad relations remained: many humans continued to see Fishmen as freaks or, in the case around Sabaody Archipelago, slaves for the Tenryuubito. On the opposite end, certain sects of Fishmen attempted to create their own societies where they dominated over the humans, such as Arlong Park in East Blue.
Overall Strength
Fishmen are claimed to be one of the strongest races in the world. Their strength is equal only by the giants of the world. They also have the ability to fight as well on land as well as in the sea. Making them one of the most dangerous races out there.

Merfolk are shown in the world of One Piece as one of the two major races that inhabit the Sea, the other being the Fishmen, and seemed to be ruled by an individual know for now only as the mermaid Princess. Merfolk are the prize catch as slaves with young females selling at a staggering 70,000,000 making them highly sought after by kidnapping teams. Parted females sell for only 10,000,000
Like the mermaids and mermen of folklore, their upper half is that of a human while the lower half is that of a fish. As demonstrated recently by Kokoro, mermaids may walk on land as when they are thirty years old, their tails split into two. Like the Fishmen, they are based on the different fish of the Sea; for example, Kokoro is an Icefish Mermaid.
Inter-species Relationships
Unlike the Fishmen, the Merfolk are peaceful, and prefer their race to remain a secret. They often are rumored to aid drowning sailors, plucking them from the sea and taking them to safety.
Mermaids and Mermen are friends to the fishes of the sea, fun loving and usually get along with most people, including Fishmen (even though Fishmen can often take advantage of the Merfolk’s good nature).
Like Fishmen, Merfolk face dramatic discrimination in certain areas due to past history between them and humans. While the World Government has attempted to bridge the gap, they are still considered valuable in areas where slavery is still legal in this world. A captured female mermaid under 30 (when their tail splits and they can walk on land) that is sold in auction in the Sabaody Archipelago can go for a starting price of 70,000,000 Beli. The wealthy who buy one usually keep them as a trophy.
Mermaid/mermen don’t exchange blood and its said wont have a relationship with humans due to the refusal in the past by humans to give blood to Sun Pirates captain Fisher Tiger. Do to this while the two species get along its less likely any half breeds with humans are seen.
Overall Strength
They appear much weaker then the Fishmen, however it is difficult to tell their strength considering only two so far have made an appearance. Merfolk are also the fastest swimmers in sea.

Skypieans are the people who come from Skypiea and live on Angel Island and other islands in the sky. The skypieans are mostly a non-aggressive race who live peacefully on the Sky Islands. They use dials for everyday use such as cooking. They have wings similar to the ones found on the backs of the Shandians. They greet each other by saying ‘Heso’ (which is Japanese for bellybutton) often while putting their hand against their head and sticking two fingers up.
First Appearance: Chapter 238; Episode 153
They follow the Leadership of their ruling governor (which they call ‘God’). They rarely question the actions of their ruling cast, even when faced with the fearsome Eneru. To the Skypieans, the ground from the Blue Seas below (which they refer to as ‘Vearth’) is sacred as plants do not grow without it in Skypiea. Because of their devotion towards their ruling cast and their value of Vearth, long ago their ancestors entered a war with the Shandian over their homeland, one which lasted 400 years.
Appearance
They train their hair to grow like the antenna of an insect from a young age, using sticks in their hair to support the end. Their wing style is very different from Bilkans, styled closer to the Shandians wings. Their wings tend to have shorter feathers that are slightly less in number than a Shandians, often these feathers are thicker and more rounded. They are so close that at times the wings appear to be identical.
History
The Immigration to the Blue Star
An ancient drawing of the three former races of the moon: Birkan, Shandorian and Skypiean. Skypieans originate from the moon, along with the Birkans and Shandorians leaving behind their friends the Spaceys. When resources on the moon were used up they, along with the Shandorians and Bilkan, moved to the Blue Seas. At some point the three races separated and became what they are today.
Song of the Holy Land
Skypiea was “blessed” when the homeland of the Shandians, descendants of the Shandorians, was blasted up into the sky. Their God immediately claimed the land as his home and a bloody war began between the two races.

Giant
Giants are a race of beings that vastly overshadow the other known races of the One Piece world in size. The most commonly known are those from the island of Elbaf. As slaves they sell for 50,000,000 for males and #10,000,000 for females.
Being giants, they are literally Giant humans in appearance. They are so large that when they cry, their tears can cause large areas on the ground to be covered with them. They are based on Vikings in both design and beliefs. But not all of them seem to be Viking themed, which is peculiar to ones from Elbaf. Jaguar D. Saul told Nico Robin not to mistake him for the brutes of Elbaf. Also marine vice-admiral John Giant seems to be non-Elbaf giant.
They are not to be confused with large-sized humans such as the Franky Family’s Mighty Destroyers or Bartholomew Kuma. To a giant, these large humans are no more than “oversized ants.” Large sized humans at their tallest reach knee-height of a giant, a normal human only reaches as high as the ankle in comparison.
Inter-species Relationships
Giants seem to get along fine with other races, though generally many humans think twice about upsetting them. Normally they seem very casual, light-headed and friendly towards just about everyone despite their size. Though a different race they are still regarded as “Men” by humans, noting there is a respectful acceptance between them and humans.
Giants can also interbreed with Fishmen, which produces a Wotan. Though Wotan’s are huge by human standards, they are still not as big as an actual giant.
Overall Strength
They are a strong and almost unstoppable race, the average human cannot stand up to them making them both ideal guards and deadly warriors. In fact, many giants are servants of the World Government and the Marines, enforcing the latter as one of the Three Great Powers.
Throughout the storyline, characters regularly are aware of just what the strength of giants is:
Mr. 3 had to devise a plan in order to take down Brogy and Dorry. While he took down Dorry by a explosion in his stomach (Brogy had finished him off), the giant had survived because of the giants endurance.
At Enies Lobby the sight of seeing the giants Oimo and Kaashii made the Franky Family commented on how using giants was “unfair”.
Saul had lifted up and smashed a number of the large Buster Call fleet ships during the destruction of Ohara. He had also taken several hits of cannon fire. He has been noted to have more strength than an average giant.
When the allies of the Straw Hats appeared to have been wiped out by the Buster Call fleet, whose cannons are able to wipe out whole island with their cannon blasts, it was revealed that Oimo and Kaashii had taken the brunt of the attack yet been largely unaffected.
During the Sabaody Archipelago arc, the kidnapping group the Coffee Monkeys reported that the only reason why they captured their giant was because he was asleep.
Oars’ strength was said to be enough to move continents, and his fearsome reputation was one of the attractions for Moria that lead his desire to gain the corpse of both him and his descendant Oars Jr. to use to become Pirate King.
The Marines have an entire squad consisting of Giants. This is giants were place in charge of guarding Ace’s execution platform. When they were ordered to prepare themselves, the pirates advancing took warned each other that “the big-boys are advancing”. They also have many other Giants as high-ranking officers.
However while they are incredibly strong their size is also their biggest disadvantage; the larger giants such as Oars and Oars Jr. are so big that they make for easy targets during battles.

Half Giant
Half Giant is a mixed race of Giant and one other race of creature out there. Although weaker in strength then their parents their lower level cost and racial bonuses still make them a big force to be face in battle. Although at no point have they said any other half giants other than the Wotan race (half giant/half Fishmen) it is strongly believed many half giants are throughout the world and even believed that Whitebeard himself do to his massive size is a Half Giant.
Inter-species Relationships
Like the Half Mermen/ Fishmen, The half giant is not respected, they are looked on as weaker than other giants and they have to work hard to prove there place in the world. The other races still fear them as they may not be as strong as their parents but they still can make you hurt big time.
Overall Strength
Weaker than their Giant Parents but what they lose in strength they make up in skill. They being a mixed race may also gain bonuses from their other parent race.
• PS Score – 4 (the average between this score and the other parent race score)

Since they outnumber most other races, usually are amongst the most technologically advanced and organized of the races, human beings remain the dominate race in the world.
Most islands are inhabited by humans, even in the Grand Line, where most of the stronger races such as the Fishmen and Giants are found. As slaves, regular humans sell for just 500,000
Differences between humans varies greatly, islands not allied with the World Government form a number of tribes including (but not exclusive to) the Dwarves, Longarm Tribe and Snake Neck Tribe. Other tribes are expected to exist as Ape-like humans including Masira, Shoujou and the Coffee Monkeys have also appeared; Masira himself claimed openly to be human and not ape although was not insulted when called a “monkey”. As of Thriller Bark, humans with demonic features also appear int he storyline.
Inter-species Relationships
The weakness of the humans in the One Piece world often makes other Races such as the Fishmen come to think lowly of them. Often this reaches to the point where they inflict heavy racism onto Humans themselves, although not all Fishmen typically think this. Often this is met by humans with returned racism towards the Fishmen, sometimes leading to bloodshed. Part of the problem is that Humans tend to think of Fishmen and the Mermen as nothing more than fish, dismissing them as “men” thus alienating any chances of them being viewed as equals with humans.
Amongst the humans themselves, there is an apparent problem with the non-World Government allied tribes. Their freakish appearances (such as having long arms or legs) are often a lure for kidnapping crews at Sabaody Archipelago, who sell them as slaves because their selling rate is much higher than a regular human. These tribes and races caught up in slavery are often sold for a higher price then “normal” humans.
Overall Strength
Most of the inhabitants of the One Piece world are Humans and are one of the weakest races on the planet. While the average human is as weak as in Real Life, with enough training they are able to train themselves to be able to do incredible stunts such as using Super-Human Strength and incredible abilities. Humans are more likely to consider the usage of Devil Fruits than any other creature in the world, and are the leaders in Devil Fruit research.

Kuja (Amazon)
Kuja (九蛇, Kuja?) are a tribe of all female fighters found on the island of Amazon Lily. Apparently, until they found Luffy on their island, they had never seen a man before.
Appearance
The Kuja Tribe
The Kuja wear revealing clothing with white capes and often have strange hairstyles. Several of them are seen carrying a large snake wrapped around them; when the Kuja threaten Luffy, it is revealed that they use the snakes as bows.
About
The Kuja tribe consists entirely of women. The majority of them are therefore unfamiliar with men, particularly their anatomy. It is stated that the women who leave Amazon Lily sometimes return pregnant. Oddly, they always give birth to females. The women are raised in the ways of the warrior and are often burly and strong, but there are the odd beauties amongst them. The Kuja are a race who consider strength as beauty and there is no room for the greedy and foolish to enter (an odd irony considering their current leader). Despite being a warrior race, the Kuja cultivates a surprisingly peaceful existence within Amazon Lily, and only engages in battle amongst themselves in arranged competitions held in the local arena for the general public’s entertainment. They seem to have little knowledge about Devil Fruit powers, despite the fact that Boa Hancock and her two sisters have Devil Fruit powers themselves (Margueritte actually believes that Luffy can’t swim because men are “useless”). Taking advantage of this, Hancock lied to the rest of the tribe, telling them her and her sisters’ powers were from slaughtering a Gorgon in battle, instead of them being fed Devil Fruits during their enslavement by the hands of the Tenryuubito.
Just as they have limited knowledge on men, likewise the rest of the world seems to know little about them. Momonga’s men give one of the many examples of the Kuja pirates rumors, stating they turn people to stone. However, this rumor applies only to Boa Hancock. They may lack information on Devil Fruits, but in exchange, most Kuja warriors, if not all, seems to be knowledgeable and fairly proficient in the use of Haki; which is something that is usually exclusive to none but the most powerful warriors so far seen in the series, such as Shanks, Luffy, and Rayleigh.
The Kuja have always lived in peaceful isolation due to their natural advantage of living in an island in the Calm Belt, protected from the rest of the world by the Sea Kings who surround them. However, this isolation has slowly eroded away as advancements in Sea stone technology has allowed the government to make new ships that can pass through the Calm Belt with no Sea King interference. The only means of protection remaining is the alliance held by their empress as a member of the Shichibukai, which both protects the Kuja from Marine attack but unfortunately classifies all, both at sea and at home, as pirates. The Kuja and their leader must comply with the government’s terms or risk the attack and destruction of everyone on the island, a peace barely hanging by a thread in a rapidly changing world.
Apparently, for the empresses of the tribe, they can contract a disease known as “love sickness”, which is when the empress grows infatuated with a man, but keeps that love suppressed, which leads to death
