The Celestial Dragons, descendants of the twenty kings who founded the World Government, hold immense power and influence in the world of One Piece. After their triumph, they chose to remain in Marijoa and became known as the Celestial Dragons, with any evidence of their origins erased. New royal families were elected to govern their respective countries.
Setting them apart from other characters in One Piece, the Celestial Dragons possess numerous privileges. They can commit atrocious crimes without facing any consequences and view others as inferior, often attempting to enslave them. Their entitlement and indulgence are a result of these privileges, making it rare to find a Celestial Dragon with a rational mindset. The exception to this is Donquixote Mjosgard, the only active Celestial Dragon who defies the typical mold.
The Onset Of Change
Mjosgard's transformation from a disrespectful Celestial Dragon to a kind and well-mannered individual took place on Fish-Man Island. Initially, he would insult the island's inhabitants, provoking their anger and leading to potential danger. However, Queen Otohime intervened and risked her own safety to protect Mjosgard from a violent backlash. Despite facing opposition from some residents of Fish-Man Island, Otohime's unwavering determination had a profound effect on Mjosgard. Her compassionate actions left a lasting impact on him, as demonstrated in the Reverie arc.
Repaying Kindness
Charlos' attention was immediately captivated by Shirahoshi, the young mermaid princess from Fish-Man Island, amidst the gathering of royal families in Marijoa. In contrast to the indifference shown by most individuals, Charlos had a sinister motive - he wanted to enslave her. Despite the ongoing Reverie, Charlos was too impatient to delay his plans. Aware of the consequences, King Neptune and his sons were infuriated but refrained from taking action to avoid endangering Otohime's dream and putting Fish-Man Island at risk. However, Shirahoshi's salvation came unexpectedly when Donquixote Mjosgard, a fellow Celestial Dragon, witnessed Charlos' intentions and swiftly intervened by striking him with a club. Grateful for Mjosgard's intervention, Neptune expressed his gratitude, granting Shirahoshi the freedom to explore Marijoa. Unfortunately, Charlos proved to be persistent, joining forces with Bartholomew Kuma in his relentless pursuit to harm Shirahoshi.
The former member of the Shichibukai had been reduced to a mindless servant, obediently following Charlos' every command. Utilizing his formidable strength, Kuma effortlessly restrained Shirahoshi with chains. Once again, Mjosgard appeared on the scene and granted Sai permission to strike Charlos. Despite Kuma's attempt to retaliate against the culprits, he was swiftly halted by Morley. Roswald watched the unfolding events with displeasure, feeling deeply unsettled. In a surprising turn of events, Mjosgard took responsibility for the attack, which did not sit well with his fellow Celestial Dragons.
In Marijoa, following the conclusion of the Reverie, a significant incident unfolded involving Donquixote Mjosgard. Shockingly, it was unveiled that the supreme commander of the Holy Knights, St. Figarland Garling, executed Mjosgard for his defense of the people of Fish-Man Island. Mjosgard was bound to the symbol of the World Government and met his demise. This tragic event serves as a powerful reminder to all Celestial Dragons of the consequences they face should they betray one another or inflict harm upon their own. Adding to the sorrow, Charlos, the assailant, miraculously survived the combined assault. Kizaru confirmed the intentional nature of the attack, leaving Charlos to live another day while Mjosgard lies in death.
The brutal murder of Mjosgard remains unknown, leaving the world unaware of his courageous nature. This incident also raises concerns about the excessive authority held by the Holy Knights. Typically, speaking against a Celestial Dragon would result in execution for an ordinary person, making the permission to kill one an extraordinary occurrence. Additionally, the relationship between Donquixote Doflamingo and Mysogard, who were part of the same family, remains uncertain. Doflamingo is currently imprisoned in Impel Down, without any means of knowing about the situation. If he does discover the truth, it remains to be seen whether he will take action or flee. The answers to these questions and more will be unveiled in due time.
