Imu

Im is the highest known ranking individual in the World Government and the actual holder of the Empty Throne to whom even the Five Elders bow down to. However, Im's existence is a secret to the rest of the world.

Appearance


Im has only been seen silhouetted so far. They possess a humanoid figure with a hand resembling a human's and sharp almond eyes with light-colored irises that have thin circles surrounding the pupils. They wear a crown that has four sharp, incredibly tall spikes on the top and an extremely long robe that flows upon the ground a great distance behind them.

Personality
Little is known about Im's personality. They seem to have a calm and gentle side, as shown when they were handling butterflies in the Room of Flowers. They have a particular interest in Monkey D. Luffy, Marshall D. Teach, Shirahoshi, and Nefertari Vivi. Im keeps wanted posters or photos of all four on their person. Luffy and Blackbeard's posters are cut apart and Shirahoshi's picture has a dagger pinning it to the ground. Vivi's picture is the only one not shown to be damaged.

Abilities and Powers
The full scope of Im's abilities are unknown, but the fact that they sit on the Empty Throne, a seat whose occupant would be associated with sole authority of the entire world, and the fact that the Five Elders, who are publicly considered to be the highest authorities of the World Government bow before them and address them with a great honorific, would indicate that Im has the greatest known authority within the World Government.

Weapons
Im possesses a saber. It has not been seen being used in combat, but it has been used to cut apart several bounty posters.

Reverie Arc


As royals gathered at Mary Geoise for the Reverie, Im went to a chamber deep within Pangaea Castle, where they approached a large straw hat while carrying some bounty posters including Monkey D. Luffy's. They later went to the Room of Flowers, where they cut apart Luffy and Blackbeard's bounty posters while also examining pictures of the princesses Shirahoshi and Nefertari Vivi. When the Reverie began, Im met with the Five Elders while sitting on the Empty Throne. The elders requested that Im reveal the name of the "light" that needed to be extinguished from history.
