Background / History
The Roger Pirates are a legendary crew led by Gol D. Roger 1. Known as one of the New World's three great overlords alongside figures like Golden Lion and Whitebeard, the crew possesses immense overall strength and dominance 5 7. The core members include Captain Gol D. Roger, First Mate Silvers Rayleigh, Scopper Gaban, and powerful fighters such as Douglas Bullet, alongside interns and apprentices like Shanks, Buggy, and later Adolf K. Shirakawa 1 3. The crew maintains a unique code where they must pay for anything they purchase and cannot use force against civilians 12.
Throughout their journey, the Roger Pirates frequently clash with Marine forces led by Vice Admiral Garp and Sengoku, as well as rival pirate fleets like those of Golden Lion Shiki 10 56.
