One Piece: 5 Characters That Could've Been Nika
These One Piece characters could have become Nika if not for Luffy.
In fact, One Piece has already killed quite a lot of incredible characters in the Final Saga, even though Oda usually avoids major deaths. This is a clear indication that things are getting more serious and that groundbreaking events are on the cards.
7 Mjosgard
Killed By: Saint Garling Figarland
Donquixote Mjosgard was the leader of the Donquixote Family among the Celestial Dragons. He was first seen during the flashback of Queen Otohime in the Fishman Island arc of One Piece. Although he was rotten to the core at first, he changed his ways after being shown kindness by the Queen.
In the Reverie arc, he defended the Fishmankind after Princess Shirahoshi was attacked by Charlos. However, for defending the merfolk, he was sentenced to death and executed by none other than Saint Garling Figarland. He was crucified and executed in the most cruel manner, and compared to vermin itself.
6 Shaka
Killed By: York
Shaka was one of the satellites of Vegapunk that was introduced to the fans in the Egghead Island arc. Among all the satellites, Shaka was believed to be one of the most intriguing ones, being the logical brain of Vegapunk.
Fans heard quite a lot of lore regarding the One Piece world from him, however, unfortunately, Shaka ended up facing an untimely death. He was shot through the head by York, who betrayed Vegapunk and all his work because she wanted to become a Celestial Dragon.
5 Pythagoras
Killed By: S-Snake
Pythagoras is yet another satellite of Dr. Vegapunk who ended up dying in the Egghead Island arc. Pythagoras represented the wisdom of Vegapunk and was certainly an extremely important cog in the system at Egghead Island.
He was killed by none other than S-Snake, one of the Seraphims on the island. At first, he was attacked from behind, however, he detached his head and managed to survive. Later on, however, he was stepped on by S-Snake, which resulted in his death. Although Vegapunk satellites can be recovered, the damage done to him was so bad that he simply ended up dying.
4 King Cobra
Killed By: Saint Imu Nerona
King Cobra is a character that One Piece fans are very familiar with. He was first introduced during the Arabasta Saga of One Piece and he played a significant role in that part of the story. Ever since then, he was sidelined, however, as soon as the Reverie began, he started gaining more relevance.
One Piece: 5 Proofs That Show Admirals Are Weaker Than Yonko
The Yonko are clearly superior to the admirals in One Piece. Here's proof of that.
At the Reverie, he petitioned for the abolition of the Shichibukai system. He succeeded in doing that and, shortly afterward, he had some questions for the Five Elders as well. It was revealed to the fans that he was a member of the D clan and that Nefatari Lily, his ancestor, was an enemy of the Government. Because he ended up seeing the face of Imu, he was sentenced to death and killed, with his death being blamed on Sabo.
3 Garp (Potential)
Killed By: Kuzan And Blackbeard Pirates
Garp played a very big role in the Final Saga of One Piece. To save Koby from Blackbeard, he led an assault on the Pirate Island and with him were the members of the SWORD section of the Marines. Garp did tremendous damage to these powerful pirates and single-handedly took care of the vast majority of them, until he was injured through underhanded tactics.
Garp still succeeded in his mission of saving Koby and rescuing quite a lot of slaves from the island. However, he had to sacrifice himself to achieve this result. His death has not been confirmed just yet, however, he was stabbed right through the chest and then frozen completely by Kuzan.
2 Clapp And His Wife
Killed By: Celestial Dragons
Clapp was a member of the Buccaneer race and once, the King of the Sorbet Kingdom. He lived a happy life, however, that was only until the birth of Kuma. As soon as Kuma was born, he was taken into captivity and made a slave in the holy land of Marijoa. He spent quite a lot of years as a slave atop the Red Line.
His wife was made a slave as well and she was the first one of the family to pass on. It is unknown how exactly she died, however, women have endured horrific fates in Marijoa under the Celestial Dragons so one can imagine. Clapp himself was shot right through the head after making too much noise when he was telling his son about Nika and his greatness.
1 Ginny (Flashback)
Killed By: Celestial Dragons Through Sapphire Scale Disease
Ginny is the latest character to have died in the final saga of One Piece. She was revealed to have died many years ago in the ongoing flashback. Ginny faced a very horrific fate. She was revealed to have been a slave a long time ago. At the age of nine, she was made a slave and she was kept for around 4 years. 38 years ago, during the God Valley Incident, she managed to escape.
Eventually, she ended up with the Revolutionary Army and, from there onwards, rose in power and importance. She became the East Army Commander of the Revolutionary Army. However, she was made a slave of the celestial dragons once again. She was forcibly married to one of them and was made to bear a child, which fans know now to be Bonney. Ginny was discarded when she contracted a severe illness called the Sapphire Scale Disease. She ended up dying in an attempt to get back to the Sorbet Kingdom.
