The world of One Piece is filled with characters who set out to the sea to accomplish their goals. In fact, the majority of the pirates in the world are neither good or bad. Most of them, even the likes of Luffy, are no heroes and are thus selfish to some extent.
However, there are a few characters whose selfishness and desire to hold others in their grip distinguishes them from the rest. These characters, mostly villains, use whatever means necessary to accomplish their goals — and use people as their pawns to earn the glory they crave.
