Son of Saint Roswald; brother of Saint Shalria.
Arc-by-arc updates
Reverie flashback (Ch. 1084)
- Captures and chains Shirahoshi as a pet, threatening her; praised by his father Roswald (“Well done, Charlos!”) (pp. 10–11).
- Orders his slave Kuma to kill Myosgard; struck down by Sai’s “Dragon Nail” — “The murder of a Celestial Dragon!!” The on-page depiction of the “attempted murder of St. Charlos” later referenced Ch. 1054 (pp. 13–15). (
last_appearanceHOLD Ch. 908 — flashback.)
Reverie flashback (Ch. 1083) — flashback-shown
- Seen in the Mary Geoise courtyard with his father Saint Roswald; still covets Shirahoshi — “She will be mine” (p. 14). Cross-link Saint Charlos Covets Shirahoshi The Mermaid At The Reverie.
Reverie aftermath — attempted murder (Ch. 1054) — reported
- Navy HQ debates whether “the attempted murder of St. Charlos” can be considered solved; “the Holy Knights have intervened” (p. 17). See Holy Knights.
Reverie (Ch. 908) — shown
- Carried into Pangaea Castle injured (“St. Charlos has been injured!! He requires immediate medical assistance!!”); his father Saint Roswald rushes to him (pp. 5–6).
Reverie — chains Shirahoshi, struck down by Mjosgard (Ch. 907)
- Captures and chains Shirahoshi as a “pet mermaid” at Pangaea Castle, ordering CP0 to “kill them” when the royals resist (pp. 9-14). Struck down by his fellow World Noble Saint Myosgard (pp. 14-15).
Reverie (Ch. 906)
- At a Celestial Dragon’s dwelling in Marijoa during the Reverie, he spots Shirahoshi through a window and covets her — “A very big one… a mermaid” (p. 5). A danger seed for the Mermaid Princess. Cross-link Saint Charlos Covets Shirahoshi The Mermaid At The Reverie.
Sabaody Archipelago — carried off unconscious (Ch. 503)
Sabaody Archipelago — the auction house & the punch (Ch. 502)
- First named on-page (page 3, “Saint Charlos!” / “A Celestial Dragon…”; restated page 10) — arrives at the Grove 1 Human Auctioning House with his (unnamed-this-chapter) father and sister, demanding “I want a mermaid” while picking his nose (pp. 2-3).
- Outbids the Straw Hats’ 200 million with 500 million for Camie (page 8); the hall falls “SILENCE” the instant he bids. Camie is sold to him outright (pp. 8-10).
- Calls a free fish-man slave a “bargain”; when Hatchan is outed as a fish-man, a World Noble shoots him and Charlos shoots him repeatedly (pp. 14-17, “I killed the fish-man! Mwa ha ha ha!”). See Fish-Men, Slavery.
- Punched in the face by Luffy (pages 18–19, “POW!! …UGHHH!!!”) — the first commoner to strike a World Noble on-page (“the punch heard round the world”). Pays into Harming A Celestial Dragon Summons An Admiral and A Straw Hat Draws On A Celestial Dragon.
Sabaody Archipelago — the parade through Grove 24 (Ch. 499)
- Parades through the lawless lands of Grove 24 riding a chained, collared human as a mount and wearing a resin air-bubble helmet over his head (pp. 10-11). Demands everyone kneel; grumbles that “Shalria and Father left me behind” (p. 10) — his sister Saint Shalria and father Saint Roswald are off-page.
- Total impunity demonstrated: tramples a wounded commoner, claims a bride-to-be (“Marie”) as “wife number 13” while ordering wives one-through-five “returned to the rabble,” and shoots her fiancé for protesting (pp. 12-13). See Celestial Dragons, Slavery.
- Fires on a passing, oblivious Zoro and believes he killed him; Zoro draws his blade in response before Jewelry Bonney (disguised as a child) stops him and “averts a disaster” (pp. 14-16). The crowd spells out the stakes — harming a World Noble summons a Navy Admiral. See A Straw Hat Draws On A Celestial Dragon, Harming A Celestial Dragon Summons An Admiral.
- Establishes the World Nobles’ total legal impunity and pre-loads Luffy’s coming clash with the caste. Pays into Hachis Warning Dont Defy The World Nobles.
Notes
- Son of the World-Noble Saint Roswald and brother of Saint Shalria; the family is later canonized as
