Giants

Giants (巨人 Kyojin) are a race from the island of Elbaf and are based on Vikings in both design and beliefs. They believe they must die in battle, that duels are sacred battles between the strong to determine who wins the favour of the Gods of Elbaf. Upon returning to Elbaf after a victoious battle, they are treated as heroes. Not all giants are typically like this, for example Jaguar D. Saul stated that although he was a giant he did not come from Elbaf nor did he share what he called the same 'Barbaric' beliefs. All giants can live for up to three times longer then human beings. They are a strong and almost unstoppable race, the average human cannot stand up to them making them both ideal guards and deadly warriors.

Examples of people from this race include: Dorry, Brogy, Oimo, Kaashii and Jaguar D. Saul. They are not to be confused with humans affected by Giantism such as the Franky Family's Mighty Destroyers. To a giant, those humans with Giantism are no more then "oversized ants."
