Profile
A “nation of laborers” in the East Blue, atop the Bridge — a World Government penal-labor colony. The enslaved are criminals from nations that refuse to join the World Government, worked to death building a single colossal bridge intended to connect the islands; the project has been running for 700 years and is still far from completion, with new workers always streaming in to replace the dead. Where Kuma’s scatter dropped Nico Robin, who is chained and ordered to work. See Slavery, Kuma’s Scatter Sends Each Straw Hat To A Place That Forges Them.
