One Piece : Top 10 saddest death | AnimeKing

One Piece is one of the greatest anime ever made, featuring some of the saddest animated deaths, such as Fisher Tiger, Ace, and more.

One Piece is, undoubtedly, one of the greatest anime ever written. With the way Oda has crafted the story so far, one can’t help but appreciate that it includes everything—from a grand adventure to over-the-top fights, and of course, some emotionally scarring deaths. Oda may not like killing villains, but he certainly enjoys drawing emotional deaths, especially those that become pivotal to the plot moving forward.

As such, One Piece includes a lot of tear-jerking deaths. Here are the ten most emotional One Piece deaths that absolutely smashed our hearts into a million pieces.

10 Scarlett’s Death

Scarlett was the first daughter of Dressrosa’s King Riku. After falling in love with Kyros, she moved to a place outside the kingdom where she led a happy life until the Donquixote family entered the fray. Using Sugar’s power, Scarlett’s husband was turned into a toy, causing her to lose all memories of him, even forgetting that she ever fell in love.

After being on the run from Diamante for two days, she went to buy bread for her starving daughter, Rebecca, and was shot through the chest. Her last moments were spent in the arms of Kyros’ toy form. Scarlett didn’t even recognize the man in whose arms she was dying, and painfully for Kyros, he couldn’t even feel her warmth leaving her body as she took her last breath.

9 Bell-Mère’s Death

A former Marine officer, Bell-mère was the adoptive mother of Nojiko and Nami. She lived in Cocoyashi Village with her two daughters, right until the day of her death. When Arlong came and demanded money in exchange for the right to live, Bell-mère faced a heartbreaking decision: she could either pay for herself or her two daughters.

She also had the option of lying about living alone, as Arlong hadn’t seen the two girls yet. However, Bell-mère, putting on a brave front, declared that she was paying for her daughters’ lives, and so she was shot right in the head. She couldn’t bear the thought of not calling herself the mother of Nojiko and Nami. With a proud smile, she said, “I love you” to the girls right before her death.

8 Fisher Tiger’s Death

One of the most heroic figures in the world of One Piece, Fisher Tiger was a former slave who escaped from the clutches of the Celestial Dragons and freed many other slaves, including humans. Even though he wanted to trust humans, he was betrayed even after safely delivering Koala, a human slave, to her home.

The Marines shot him several times, and the only way to save him was by transfusing human blood. In an act of prejudice, Tiger refused the blood, not because he was an evil person, but because he couldn’t help but feel betrayed even while doing good. Despite this, during his last moments, Fisher Tiger placed his bet on the upcoming generation of humans, realizing that change would eventually come.

7 Donquixote Rosinante’s Death

A former Celestial Dragon and the son of Donquixote Homing, Rosinante was the complete opposite of his evil brother. After his father’s death at Doffy’s hands, Rosinante was found by Sengoku, who took him in the Marines. As a double agent, he continuously supplied the Marines with information about his brother until the day he met Law.

To save Law from the Amber Lead Syndrome, he risked his life time and again, defying the world to ensure the child lived. This was primarily because Law was already scarred by a horrific past, and Rosinante couldn’t bear to see him suffer more. By betraying his brother and even the Marines, Rosinante fed the Ope Ope no Mi to Law and paid the ultimate price by dying at his brother’s hands.

6 Pedro’s Death

Pedro was a Jaguar-mink and one of Nekomamushi’s guardians. He accompanied the Straw Hats on their journey to retrieve Sanji from Whole Cake Island and steal Big Mom’s Road Poneglyph. After successfully completing the mission, Pedro sacrificed his life to ensure the Straw Hats could escape from Whole Cake Island. To free the Sunny from the candy, he blew himself up.

Since he was young, Pedro had been told that the ‘Dawn of the World’ would eventually come. Placing all his faith in Luffy, he knew that allowing him to leave Whole Cake Island was crucial, as he believed Luffy was the man who would bring about that Dawn.

5 Dr. Hiriluk’s Death

Hiriluk was once a thief who suffered from a chronic illness, which was miraculously cured by the Sakura blossoms. From that moment on, he devoted his life to curing others of their ailments. To Hiriluk, Chopper was like a son who needed protection. Similarly, Chopper cared deeply for him and even brought him a mushroom he believed would cure all diseases. Unbeknownst to Chopper, the mushroom was poisoned, but Hiriluk ate it knowing it was tainted.

Later, Hiriluk took his own life by drinking a failed medicine and went out in a massive explosion. In essence, he never truly died because he was never forgotten. His dream of seeing Drum Island freed also came to fruition years later.

4 Rumbar Pirates’ Demise

The Rumbar Pirates were a crew that sailed the seas about 50 years before the beginning of One Piece. Before entering the Grand Line, they promised Laboon that they would return to him at any cost. Unfortunately, the Grand Line proved to be cruel, and half of the crew perished due to an incurable disease.

The remaining members roamed the Florian Triangle for years until they were attacked with poisonous weapons. One by one, they succumbed to their injuries, but not before performing one last time for Laboon, whom they would never see again. Brook, who had eaten the Revive-Revive Fruit, recorded this final performance on a tone dial and promised to keep his word by delivering it to Laboon after his resurrection.

3 Going Merry’s Death

The Going Merry was the first ship of the Straw Hat Pirates, gifted to them by Kaya. After numerous adventures aboard the Going Merry, the ship eventually had to be replaced as repairs were no longer possible.

At Water 7, the ship was finally abandoned. However, the ship’s spirit manifested itself and sailed one last time to save the Straw Hats from Enies Lobby. After accomplishing this final act, Luffy set the ship on fire with a heavy heart, and the entire crew paid their respects to her for everything she had done for them.

2 Edward Newgate’s Death

Also known as the Strongest Man in the World, Edward Newgate waged war on the Navy to rescue his son, Portgas D. Ace. Despite Ace being the son of his rival, Gol D. Roger, Whitebeard considered him and everyone else in his crew as his sons. Whitebeard managed to free Ace with Luffy’s help; however, Ace ended up sacrificing himself to protect his brother. Newgate then challenged the Marines on his own, creating an opportunity for his children to escape.

After defeating Akainu, Whitebeard was shot hundreds of times by the Blackbeard Pirates. Moments before he died, just like Roger, he declared that the One Piece was, indeed, real. The greatest pirate ever passed away standing proud.

1Portgas D. Ace’s Death

The biological son of Gol D. Roger, Ace was a man whose mere existence was considered a crime. As a result, he harbored doubts about whether he should have been born at all. After joining the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace finally found a place where he belonged. However, in an attempt to bring Blackbeard to justice, he was handed over to the Marines.

During his execution, Whitebeard assembled his entire crew and allies to rescue him. Ace’s brother, Luffy, also arrived to save his life, and for the first time, Ace felt he was truly loved. Ironically, Ace ended up saving Luffy by sacrificing his own life.

He passed away in his brother’s arms, thanking Luffy for loving someone like him, who carried the blood of a demon. Without any regrets, Ace died just as he wished.
