Luffy using a Den Den Mushi

Called a Transponder Snail Phone in the English dub. These are the odd "phone snails" that are used throughout the series. They come in a variety of colors and shapes and have multiple functions. The snails act as a number of devices including: rotary phones, fax machines, and cellular wrist watch devices. It's unknown how the Den Den Mushi are able to communicate with one another over such great distances. When they are used, the snails speak in sync with the caller's voice, as well as sometimes imitating the facial expressions of the caller.

According to Eiichiro Oda, Den Den Mushi have the ability to communicate with one another using radio (thought) waves, an ability harnessed by people attaching buttons and receivers to them so they can transmit voice messages between specific snails. Thus, a Den Den Mushi is not harmed if its receiver is damaged or destroyed. Due to Humans breeding them for usage, the Den Den Mushi spieces has a whole recieves a large benfit in return. When not in use, the Den Den Mushi are usually inert, either sleeping or in a dazed state. Other types of Den Den Mushi include:[1]

Sea Kings are mythical sea creatures in the anime and manga One Piece, which are generally much larger than normal sea creatures. They are found in great numbers along the Calm Belt around the Grand Line, although in rare occasions they can be found in other places throughout the world. In the English manga they are referred to as "Neptunians".

Sea Kings make trade and travel difficult for anyone trying to cross the water where they are found. Cases have arisen where some islands in the Grand Line close to the edge of the Calm belt have ended up getting almost completely cut off from the rest of the world. In Water 7 and its surrounding islands, this led to the eventual creation of the Sea Train as a means to travel safely to and from each of its surrounding islands.

Sea Kings are serpent-like in appearance however they vary form one Sea King to another in exact appearance along with their size. Only the strongest of ships or captains can take on a Sea King. Most other creatures in the ocean fear the Sea King and confrontation with one by all but a few humans is unadvisable. Many characters such as Franky see the act of killing one a sign of strength and achievement.

It is revealed that Sea-stone can be used to mask the presence of a ship, allowing it to travel through calm belt.

The Sea King that ate Shanks' arm is known as The Lord of the Coast.

[edit] South Blue

[edit] Blue-Finned elephant Tuna

(Titanic Tuna in the English dub): A fish that comes from the South Blue and has elephant-like features and is roughly two-and-a-half metres long. It is known as 'the jewel of the sea' and is supposed to be a miracle ingredient for cooking. It is not found in the East Blue. In the manga Sanji buys one in Lougetown. In the Anime, Sanji wins such a beast in a "cook-off" against four other chefs.

[edit] West Blue

[edit] Island Whales

The largest whale species in the One Piece world. They come from the West Blue. They normally swim together with other Island Whales in pods (just like real life whales) but may adopt another family (E.g. Laboon adopted a pirate ship as his pod) and swim with them.

[edit] Little Garden

[edit] Dinosaurs

Apparently, due to the unpredictable weather patterns of the Grand Line, dinosaurs were able to survive and live on the island of Little Garden, which is hot and humid enough for the dinosaurs to live in.

[edit] Kestia

A type of tick that inhabits hot, humid jungles and carries bacteria in its bite. Once bitten an infection forms and after 5 days the infection begins to spread, causing the victim to experience intense pain. During this time, the victim’s temperature rises up to 40°c causing Myocarditis, Ateritis and Encephalitis. After the full 5 days of infection, the patient apparently dies. It takes 10 days after treatment to recover from the diease. While the Straw Hat Pirates were on Little Garden, Nami is bitten by a Kestia causing her to become sick. Kestia was supposed to have become extinct 100 years ago, but it survived on Little Garden because of its prehistoric setting. In the 4Kids dub the whole of Little Garden was removed, but oddly kept the part about the Kestia or "Stingy-Dingy Bug".

[edit] Giant Goldfish

Giant Goldfish is an enormous fish that haunts the sea around of Little Garden. It's known as "Island Eater" and its feces is so big that is known as "Nothing Island". This is another of Usopp's lies becoming true. This fish ate Going Merry, when Straw Hats were leaving Little Garden, but was killed by Dorry & Broggy, with their strongest attack, Hakoku, saving their friends' lives.

[edit] Drum Island

[edit] Hiking Bear

A giant white bear from Drum Island known as a mountain climber. The usual manner in dealing with one is just to bow to it as a respectable mountain climber and leave it be. In the English dub, Zoro describes them as "Bipolar Bears."

[edit] Lapahn

Big, white, carnivorous snow rabbits from Drum Island. They are the most vicious species of animal on Drum Island. Their name is a reference to the French word for rabbit - 'lapin.'

[edit] Reindeer

Tony Tony Chopper himself is one. They are described as usually having red noses(like rudolf).

[edit] White Walky

More commonly known as "Hairy Hippos," these are as their second name implies, a species of hippopotamus covered in long fur. These have adapted to the environment of Drum Island to the point that they have become lethargic in nature. Though they appear to be short, the legs of the White Walky are actually rather long when not tucked under its fur, allowing it to move faster than it could were its legs tucked in. However, having them tucked in gives it remarkable ability for climbing vertical slopes. Wapol was able to scale the tallest peak of the Drum Rockies to get to his castle with ease by riding on the back of his pet White Walky, Robson.

Called a Kung-Fu Jugon in the English dub. A type of Dugong living in Alabasta that is famous for their martial arts skills and strength. Their code of honor states that once they are defeated, a dugong must become the follower of the one who defeated them. Their code extends to any 'disciples' their master may have with him as well. Currently, their master is Luffy as he unwittingly defeated them all.

[edit] Desert Strawberry

A poisonous spider indiginous to deserts that bears a strong resemblance to a strawberry. Some desert travellers will come across this spider and, if they're hungry enough, will eat it, mistaking it for an actual strawberry. Upon eating it, the traveller will then become poisoned and then die within a few hours. Upon death the body will then release further toxins poisoning anyone around them. The corpses of a suspected victims of the Desert Strawberrys poison are approached with extreme cautions.
