God's Guards

The White Berets (ホワイトベレー, Howaito Berē) is a police force in Skypiea whose captain is McKinley.

They wear a characteristic uniform that consists of light-purple T-shirts, blue with white cloud-shaped spots wide trousers, and white berets with "WB" letters on them. They perform their duties of tracking down criminals and labeling them with "decrees" of their being criminals, so as to establish a universal punishment. They act under direct orders from the Priests. They have no real extra human skills like the priests of the Upper Yard. They are the most lenient, gentle and understanding out of all the guardians in Skypiea. White Berets act strangely sometimes: they crawl without a reason, and saying the traditional skypiean "Heso" they put hands to heads in a characteristic way.

White Berets were all originally members of the Enforcers in service to Gan Fall. Appearing to betray the Enforcers, they pledged allegiance to Enel. They believed that by remaining on the island and trying to prevent anyone from God's anger, they could protect the citizens. But in the end this plan turned to be a miserable failure.

When they discovered Enel planned to destroy all of Skypiea, they turned against him and helped the people from Angel Island to get into safety.

Amongst the laws they enforce are:


 * Attacking/threatening a White Beret
 * Not paying the toll to Skypiea
 * Sleeping on the open beach loudly (sound pollution)
 * Protection of endangered animal/fish species (killing/catching/eating it is a crime, hurting it is not)
