One Piece feels like it’s been going on since the dawn of time! And that’s actually a good thing, because it means we get to hang out with a whole bunch of awesome characters for longer.
There are plenty of young guns in One Piece, but you can’t deny that the older characters are some of the strongest badasses around. So, I’ve compiled a list of the top 10 oldest characters who are still alive and kicking.
They have been slaying since day one, taking on tons of battles and adventures along the way, and they bring a level of intensity and grit that you just don’t get from the younger crew.
Let’s check out which characters stood the test of time in the world of One Piece.
10 Jaguar D. Saul
Age – 127 years
Birthday – March 6
Let me tell you about one of the coolest giants in the One-Piece universe. This big guy is all about doing the right thing, even if it means going against the Marines.
Jaguar D. Saul is one of the oldest characters in One Piece at 127 years. After being frozen by Vice Admiral Kuzan during the Buster Call on Ohara, he was originally thought to be dead.
But, surprise, surprise, he actually survived and went into hiding with all the books the scholars had saved from destruction. He is a seasoned veteran who has been around the Grand Line and seen Devil Fruit users in action.
9 Dr. Kureha
Age – 141 years
Birthday – September 8
She’s this super old doctor on Drum Island who’s a bit of a wild card. People call her a “witch,” but I think she’s just misunderstood.
She took Tony Tony Chopper under her wing after his mentor passed away and was also the head of the Isshi-100.
Dr. Kureha is the oldest human in the series at 141 years old. But don’t you dare call her “old” or a “hag” because she will straight-up punch you across the room.
This lady is not your average doctor. She has some pretty unconventional methods, including threatening her patients and having Chopper knock them out for anesthesia.
8 Oimo
Age – 153 years
Birthday – January 6
Oimo is one loyal dude. Did you know he was even willing to give up 100 years of his life to work for the World Government just to save his two captains from imprisonment?
Oimo is a giant from Elbaf who is 153 years old. He is a member of the Giant Warrior Pirates under Dorry and Brogy. He’s always looking out for his friends and allies, and if you mess with them, you’ll definitely feel his wrath.
50 years ago, the Marines captured Oimo and his buddy Kashii and tricked them into serving as guards of Enies Lobby’s main gate.
But when the Enies Lobby Arc went down, Oimo and Kashii had a change of heart and joined forces with the Straw Hat Pirates, Galley-La Company, and Franky Family!
7 Kashii
Age – 156 years
Birthday – April 1
Kashii is a giant Viking warrior with long hair and a gnarly beard. He was there when Dorry and Brogy had started their legendary duel on Little Garden.
Kashii is Oimo’s best buddy. He’s been around for a whopping 156 years and was part of the Giant Warrior Pirates a century ago. He’s a loyal friend and hates it when anyone messes with his crew.
He was stuck guarding Enies Lobby’s main gate for over fifty years after being tricked by the Navy. But when the Straw Hats came along, Kashii and Oimo switched sides and joined forces with Luffy and the gang.
6 Morley
Age – 160 years
Birthday – Unknown
As the commander of the West Army, Morley’s got some serious power in the Revolutionary Army. And she’s not afraid to use it to protect her comrades.
Morley of Fur is a 160-year-old giant. She speaks in a really polite and feminine manner, which is kind of surprising for a giant, but it adds to her charm.
She’s always wondering if people are attracted to her, which is hilarious. But she’s not into unnecessary violence or anything. She’s all about peace and love.
5 Dorry
Age – 160 years
Birthday – October 2
Dorry’s life as a pirate came to an end when he and Brogy got into a contest over the size of the fish they caught. Talk about a prideful dude!
At 160 years old, Dorry is in his prime and can take on any challenge that comes his way. He’s a good-natured giant who follows the customs of his homeland with great honor.
As an ally of the Straw Hat Pirates during the Little Garden Arc, he proved that he’s not afraid to team up with anyone who shares his values.
4 Brogy
Age – 160 years
Birthday – February 1
This red ogre is a true warrior, always sticking to the customs of his homeland and fighting with great honor. Even if he’s injured, he won’t back down from a good fight.
Brogy is 160 years old & he’s one of the two captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates. He’s not just a tough guy, though; he’s got a heart too. When he fought Dorry, he didn’t feel happy about winning because he knew something was off.
I love how Brogy and Dorry are old pals with Shanks, referring to him as “brother.” And when they team up with him against the Kid Pirates, they’re a force to be reckoned with.
3 Hatcha
Age – 188 years
Birthday – October 8
He was part of an experiment on Punk Hazard that tried to make ancient giants again. It failed, but Kaidou took him and the other test subjects to live on Onigashima.
As one of the Numbers, Hatcha is a big humanoid who’s even taller than your average giant, coming in at a whopping 66.8 meters. He is 188 years old and has a pair of horns on his head, just like most of the other Beasts Pirates.
Hatcha now represents the number “eight,” and since he’s so massive, he packs a serious punch with his trusty club. It’s no wonder he’s such a force to be reckoned with.
2 Jarul
Age – 408
Birthday – December 8
Jarul is so massive that his beard looks like a freaking mountain, and he wears a Viking helmet with horns that add to his awesomeness.
He is all about that military life and reminds the young giants on Elbaf that being a warrior is the most important thing.
Jarul used to be one of the captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates, along with his best bud Jorul. He is 408 years old, and although he’s dedicated to the warrior way of life, he is surprisingly open-minded.
Jarul values camaraderie and beliefs above all else. He was devastated when his lifelong comrade Jorul died, and he couldn’t forgive Charlotte Linlin for killing him in a dishonorable way.
1 Zunesha
Age – 1000+
Birthday – December 18
Zunesha is so big that its legs are disproportionately long, allowing it to walk on the sea floor with its upper body sticking out of the water. Legend has it that it was linked to Joy Boy 800 years ago.
Zunesha is the oldest character in One Piece. It’s an elephant that’s been around for over 1000 years. It committed a heinous crime in the past, so now it’s stuck wandering around forever as punishment.
It’s carrying an entire island on its back! Yeah, you heard that right; Zou Island is just chilling up there while Zunesha wanders around the New World like it’s no big deal.
About One Piece

The man who had acquired everything in this world, the Pirate King, is Gol D. Roger. The final words he said at the execution tower were “My treasures? If you want it, I’ll let you have it. Look for it; I left all of it at that place.” These words sent many to the seas, chasing their dreams, headed toward the Grand Line, in search of One Piece. Thus began a new age!
Seeking to be the greatest pirate in the world, young Monkey D. Luffy also heads toward the Grand Line in search of One Piece. His diverse crew is joining him along the way, consisting of a swordsman, marksman, navigator, cook, doctor, archaeologist, and cyborg-shipwright, this will be one memorable adventure.
