User blog:YowAnime/Yonko's inspiration

Have you ever wondered where did Eichiiro Oda seek inspiration for the Emperors of the Sea? Another interesting topic to tackle and this might help you to appreciate the legendary works of Eiichiro Oda.

Aside from billion bellies of bounty, one thing that caught my interest in the Yonko’s is their image and distinct characteristics. From the good guys (Shanks and Whitebeard) to the down to evil dudes (Big Mom, Kaido, and Blackbeard) it is no wonder that their characters portrayed are full of rich historical and literary backgrounds. Observing their names, image, and many inclinations could help us to define them individually including their protected islands and territories would enable us to understand perhaps identify what will happen in the series. In this context, we will try to appreciate their origin and literary allusion based on some factual historical works.
