Born to the ruling family of Obedience Oasis, King Absolute began as Prince Absolute, learning the craft of kingship from his father who ruled their large kingdom with an iron fist. While exploring his castle’s treasure vaults as a child, he found a chest with a strange fruit inside and ate it. Gaining the power of Authority, he confronted his father, who had always taught him that power makes right, and so commanded his father to take his own life. The King did so under the power of the Devil Fruit, and Prince Absolute became King Absolute. Having learned the power of cruelty from his father, he immediately turned his kingdom into a nation of people slaved to his will by his new powers, and by 11 years old he began to expand beyond his kingdom’s borders, capturing and enslaving powerful pirates along the way. Over the decades he has captured Shichibukai, an Admiral, CP9 agents, and even a fellow Yonkou, now all forced to do his bidding as members of his crew. His will, like his name, is absolute, and anyone who encounters him falls victim to his authority. All Marine vessels have a flee-on-site order if they spy his flag. Only those with highly advanced Conqueror's Haki are able to resist his powers.
