One of the exciting dynamics in One Piece is good/evil. Navy vs. Pirates; Navy is a government organization that wields the iron rod of world domination, which portrays the general public as the "goods guys." The navy's vast range network of employing sea war world's secret task force, aka CP9, to extend their dominance in the world. In contrast, the pirates are the freedom fighters.
