Nobles
Nobles are not to be confused with World Nobles as nobles are people restricted to their respective kingdoms while the World Nobles are people who were descendants from the Twenty Kingdoms and live only in Mariejois whose noble status is universal.
A majority of the nobles shown in the series have been portrayed as heartless. In particular, the nobles from Sabaody Archipelago, who were afraid of getting infected after Hatchan was shot and remorseless at the fact he was shot, as well as the Goa Kingdom nobles deciding to have Gray Terminal burned and massarce the people living there who tried to escape to make the kingdom beautiful for the visiting World Noble, Saint Jalmack, in hopes to be given an advancement in their noble status. They also believe that the "commoners" are fools for reasons outside of their control, one key statement where a father told his daughter they were trash and fools because they were not born as nobles, claiming they were stupid for not "choosing to be born noble". All nobles with such an attitude have been shown to be very cowardly, where despite their fearsome reputation they often cower to any threat of physical violence. They also seem to believe people are only interested in money, often bribing or suggesting money as a form of defense and if that does not succeed suggest the consequences that harming them would cause, and will believe the person is insane if they do not accept the money or threat. In other words, they have no idea how the real world works outside their own petty and selfish reasons. Hody Jones even believes that by being a king, one has the right to be selfish. A noble becomes a true noble at age eighteen.

Krul Tepes | 46 comments Sabo was a noble, right? I like him; he's better than the other nobles.

yeah he was :) but there are very few nobles like him, plus he got killed :/


message 4: by Krul (new)

Krul Tepes | 46 comments But there are some rumors going around that Sabo is still alive! He's with the Revolutionaries.

I don't think so, I mean I'd love it if he was still alive, but I just don't think he would be since they're just rumors


message 6: by Krul (new)

Krul Tepes | 46 comments No, they actually showed some clips in the storyline that suggest he could very well be alive.

What clips?


message 8: by Krul (new)

Krul Tepes | 46 comments Back when they were talking about the boys' childhood.

but at the end of those flashbacks they showed him being killed by a Celestial Dragon, it gave them another reason to hate the Celestial Dragons


message 10: by Krul (new)

Krul Tepes | 46 comments Yeah but, further on, we see Dragon and the others looking down on a person who's hurt badly by the Celestial Dragons.

the Revolutionaries left before the Celestial Dragons got there though, they sailed over to the Dojo where Zoro was training to take care of the people that got caught in the Junkyard fire


message 12: by Krul (new)

Krul Tepes | 46 comments That was where Dragon brought someone on board! I think its Sabo.
