King Harald

Intro Vision and legacy:Champion of Peace: Harald's most significant contribution was his effort to transform Elbaf from a war-torn nation into one of peace and diplomacy. Symbolic Sacrifice: As a descendant of ancient giants, he removed his own horns as a powerful symbol of his rejection of violence and commitment to a peaceful future for Elbaf. Building for the Future: Under his reign, the Owl Library and Walrus School were established, reflecting his dedication to education and a peaceful society. Relationships and family Sons with Conflicting Paths: He was the father of Loki, who allegedly killed him for a Devil Fruit and was exiled, and Hajrudin, Harald's illegitimate son who became a pirate and later joined the Straw Hat Grand Fleet. Tragic Death: Harald was murdered 14 years ago, with Loki being blamed and sentenced to crucifixion. Complex Relationship with Loki: Despite Loki's alleged patricide and hatred for the World Government that Harald collaborated with, evidence suggests Loki actually loved and admired his father, potentially killing him out of a twisted sense of duty to protect Elbaf from the World Government. Immensely Powerful: As an ancient giant, Harald possessed incredible strength and fought fiercely against Loki in his final moments, even having been regarded by Rocks D. Xebec as a powerful figure whom he tried to recruit for his crew. Compassionate and Diplomatic: Harald's dedication to peace and his efforts to promote diplomatic relations highlight his compassionate nature and desire for a better future for Elbaf. Potential for Naivety: Some interpretations suggest Harald might have been naive in his dealings with the World Government, potentially underestimating their manipulative tactics.
