One of the points that makes the famous manga/anime series One Piece attractive is the way “holy” Oda built the pirate world with countless colors and mysteries that always make fans curious. . And when it comes to the pirate world of One Piece, it would probably be a big mistake not to mention the extremely diverse and interesting races that have appeared in this series.
In fact, we have encountered many different races such as Giants, Fish-Man, Mink… However, there is one race that also contains many mysteries that make fans extremely curious, which is the God race. Today, let’s take a look at 4 races that are considered related to it.
The Skypieans
The Skypieans are the people who inhabit Angel Island and the other islands of Skypiea. The people here carry small wings on their backs facing up very nicely, like angels. They live together peacefully, greeting each other by saying “Heso” and using Dials – which are not found in the Blue Sea as an essential for everyday life.
Despite being peaceful inhabitants, the inhabitants of this heavenly island have been at war for hundreds of years with the Shandians because they are considered intruders.
The Shandians
In fact, the Shandia race did not come from an island in the sky. They were a tribe that came from the moon, but then lived in the Jaya region. Until one day, their territory surged upward and eventually merged with the territory on the sky island.
In appearance, this Shandia race has similarities with Native Americans. The Shandians decorate their bodies with various tattoos and feathers. Their wings resemble the Skypieans in shape and point upwards, but with more feathers, longer, and more defined shapes.
It can be said that the Shandians are good warriors, always fighting fiercely and loyal to the tribe. That is why, even though 400 years have passed, they have never given up their desire to regain their homeland from the Skypieans.
The Birkan clan
The Birkan are another race of gods known to have originated from the moon, in addition to Shandia. And they are also known to be one of the races that helped create Automata. After all the resources on the moon were exhausted, they left Automata and left with the Shandorians.
Physically, they resemble the inhabitants of the sky islands and the Shandia region, with a pair of wings on their backs. The only difference is that the wings of the Birkan race are downward facing. Although some are shaped like normal humans, this race still has some unique points.
The Birkan race is known to be the cause of the war on Sky Island with the leader being Enel. He ruled the sky island for a long time before being defeated by Luffy.
Lunarians
The Lunarian race is the newest god race introduced recently. They do not live on the sky island, but on the territory of the Red Line which is currently the territory of the World Government and where Mary Geoise is. The Lunarian race also has a pair of wings on its back. However, the wingspan of the Lunarian race is larger than the other three races and is black in color.
The Lunarian race is also known to be very adept at controlling fire. Besides they have a supple body and can survive in all natural conditions. However, for whatever reason, nearly all of the known Lunarian races are extinct. And King (or Arbel) is the last of this race.
It is known that this is also the race that Yonko Big Mom aspires to possess, Big Mom once invited King to join her pirate crew but was refused.
