Lvneel King



King of Lyneel: A king of Lyneel in the North Blue 400 years ago. Eiichiro Oda did not give him a name so we refer him as King of Lyneel. He is the greedy king who thinks of nothing but gold.

When Montblanc Norland returned from the Grand Line he shared his adventure with the King and spoke of the city of gold, Shandora. Delighted, the King asked permission from The World Government's Headquarters, Mariejois, to grant him access to the Grand Line. Months later he told Norland to take him to Shandora, and also rejected bringing Norland's crew; instead bringing only his royal guards. This proves to be a big mistake as the guards had no sailing experience. Thus, many lives were lost in the expedition.

However, Norland was determined to bring the King to safety. When they finally arrive at Jaya, Shandora was gone. Furious at thinking that Norland fooled him, the King shot Norland at the back, blaming him for lying without even hearing Norland out. All of them were unaware that there was a Knock-Up Stream one year ago that sent one part of Jaya to the sky.

Back at Lyneel, the King ordered Norland's execution to cover up his embarrassment and announces to everyone that Norland is a liar. To make matters worse, he rejected all testimonies of Norland's crew and instead hired a fake crew member to lie with a priest present, all acting out on the King's orders.
