The Ancient Kingdom existed long ago in the world of One Piece and fans know that this powerful kingdom was incredibly advanced, composed of the brightest of minds and the strongest of people. Joyboy, who fans somewhat know in the story now, was a part of this kingdom and was likely at the helm of it as well.

There were many powerful races that were a part of the Ancient Kingdom that fans have come to see over the years in One Piece. While fans have not seen a glimpse of the kingdom itself, its many allies have already been revealed.

8 Humans

Notable Character: Monkey D. Luffy

Humans are one of the many races in the One Piece world and it goes without saying that some humans were allied with the Ancient Kingdom. There are many powerful humans that exist in the pirating world right now and the likes of Luffy, Roger, and many others all fall under this race.

They have stood the test of time and fans should absolutely expect them to be a part of the Ancient Kingdom as well.

7 Fishmen

Notable Character: Jinbe

FishMan Island Arc in One Piece

The Fishmen are confirmed to be allies of the Ancient Kingdom, given that they had connections with Joyboy. The former mermaid princess was also a very close friend of Joyboy and he also made a promise to them that he would bring them to live life under the sun using the giant Noah.

Of course, Joyboy failed his promise to the Fishmankind, however, this promise will eventually be fulfilled.

6 Giants

Notable Character: Dorry and Brogy

Giants are the strongest known race to exist in the world of One Piece and they are certainly allies of the Ancient Kingdom as well. Many secrets about the world of One Piece lie on the island of the Giants. Fans have always seen giants on the right side of history as they have been allies of not just Luffy but also Shanks.

The secrets regarding the fourth Poneglyph are also linked to the giants and fans will see all of them being explored soon in the story, which means that they are part of the Ancient Kingdom as well.

5 Sky Island Races

Notable Character: Wyper

The winged races of the One Piece world are also known to be allies of the Ancient Kingdom and this is especially true for the likes of the Shandians. They were protecting a Poneglyph and fans already know that Shandora fought against the 20 Kingdoms in a war nearly 900 years ago.

They lost the war, however, the City of Gold was able to survive and, at the same time, their Poneglyph was also preserved. Fans also know that the Skypieans, another winged race, also pray to the Sun God, meaning that they were also allies.

4 Minks

Notable Character: Carrot

Carrot One Piece

The Minks are a race of humanoid animals that exist in the One Piece world and they have always been allied to the Kozuki, who themselves are allied to the Ancient Kingdom. This means that the Mink race has always been loyal to the people of the Ancient Kingdom.

They are an incredibly powerful bunch with the ability to use electro from a very young age. In fact, even a child Mink can defeat a full-grown human adult with rather ease.

3 Dwarves

Notable Character: Mansherry

Dwarves were only introduced in One Piece during the Dressrosa arc and it was then revealed that they were an important part of the history of the world of One Piece.

They were definitely allied with the Ancient Kingdom, given that the previous king Donquixote was incredibly cruel to them. The dwarves are allies of the current Joyboy, Luffy, as well and one should expect them to have been relevant in the previous Great War too.

2 Lunarians

Notable Character: King

The Lunarians were known as the Gods of the world nearly 400 years ago. They likely flourished during the Void Century too and given that they believe in Nika and his return, they most likely were allied with the Ancient Kingdom as well.

Alber, who is the last known trueborn Lunarian that the fans know of, wanted Joyboy to come and save the world, which all but confirms that their race were allies of the Ancient Kingdom.

1 Buccaneers

Notable Character: Kuma

The Buccaneer race was recently revealed in One Piece and this race appears to be somewhat of a mix between a human and a giant. Of course, this isn't a race created by the interbreeding of these two races. In fact, it is a race that exists on its own but these people are believed to have the blood of the giant.

This means that the Buccaneers have incredible strength as well as resilience and durability, all the while having a smaller stature when compared to the Giants. They are heavily connected to Nika and know all of his secrets. This is a clear indication that they were allies of the Ancient Kingdom long ago in the past.
