Dragon[]
Dragons (
The powers and abilities of a dragon are so strong that not only can it destroy a single town (under the control of D.R. and Cyrano with the use of a Dragon Horn) and bring terror to the public, but killing one made the samurai Ryuma a legend, and stories about him are still passed down after generations. The dragon Ryuma faced was voiced by Kazuya Nakai in Monsters: 103 Mercies Dragon Damnation.
Dragons were first mentioned by Hogback in the One Piece storyline during the Thriller Bark Arc, where he revealed to Zoro the story of Ryuma and his legendary slaying of a dragon long ago which the latter took in with much skepticism.
Dr. Vegapunk was revealed to have created his own artificial dragons to guard Punk Hazard, which appear like Western dragons. He had tried thirteen times to create his own dragons, but each one failed except for Dragon Number Thirteen and Dragon Number Twenty-One. The Straw Hats encountered these two, both of which were incredibly strong, and one possessing great speed as well. However, both were eventually killed by Kin'emon and the Straw Hats.
There are also wingless Eastern dragons introduced during the Punk Hazard Arc. Kaidou is revealed to have eaten the Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu that allows him to become one, specifically the Azure Dragon. His dragon form is also perfectly capable of simulating flight via "Flame Clouds". However, his fierce personality and destructive abilities are more similar to that of the Western dragons, being capable of breathing fire and destroying large areas. Momonosuke also ate Vegapunk's failed Artificial Devil Fruit, which was meant to duplicate Kaidou's Devil Fruit, allowing him to turn into a small pink Chinese dragon.
There are also two anime exclusive dragon species, the Sennenryu and the Seahorse Dragon.

Its stomach is its most tender part and is particularly sensitive to a blade; opening it up successfully requires a perfectly straight singular cut that cannot be even a millimeter off. The slightest hesitation or waver will trigger its defense mechanism, causing it to pop like a balloon and explode all of its delicious flesh into useless scraps.
