El Drago (エルドラゴ, Eru Dorago) is the main antagonist in the first One Piece movie.[1]

Contents

[edit] Appearance

El Drago is a dark skinned, red haired man that resembles a cat or lion in appearance (as noted by Luffy). Because of his extensive love of gold, he wears shoulder pad armor made of gold, with a white shirt underneath.

[edit] Abilities and powers

El Drago has eaten the Goe Goe no Mi, granting him the power to create a wave of sound that can cause explosive destruction when he yells.

He also wears golden armor to defend himself, and nails made of gold that allows him to stab his opponents.

[edit] History

He comes to Gold Island to look for Woonan's gold and claim it for his own. In the process, he kidnaps Tobio. He is defeated when Luffy bounces his sound blast back at him and then sends him flying with a Gomu Gomu no Bazooka.

[edit] Trivia

  • El Drago's name is probably a reference on the English privateer Francis Drake, who was also known by the Spaniards as El Draco (from the old Spanish meaning "the Dragon").
  • His name is also similar to El Dorado, the city of gold from South American legends.
  • El Drago is mentioned again in the second One Piece movie when Bear King's lackeys are speaking with him. They refer to El Drago as their last boss.[2]
