Donquixote Rosinante, also known as Corazon, is a supporting character from One Piece. He was formerly a World Noble descendant of the Donquixote Family, as well as the youngest son of Donquixote Homing and the younger brother of Donquixote Doflamingo.
Following his downfall, he became a Marine Commander who acted as a spy as the top executive of the Donquixote Pirates. He was killed by Doflamingo, 13 years before the beginning of the story.
He was voiced by Kōichi Yamadera and Ryō Hirohashi as a child in the Japanese version, and by Ray Chase and Hayden Daviau as a child in the English dubbed version.
Biography[]
Donquixote Rosinante is Donquixote Doflamingo's younger brother, who Trafalgar Law holds a deep respect for. He died 13 years prior to the Dressrosa arc, and for that Law decided to take revenge on Doflamingo. He ate the Calm-Calm Fruit (Nagi Nagi no Mi — "Nagi" means "silence"), which gives him abilities related to soundproofing.
Personality[]
Corazon was genuinely broken-hearted to hear Law's tragic story and not only felt no ill will after being stabbed by him but also traveled for six months to find the boy a cure for his deadly disease. He also sees his older brother as a horrible monster and sought to take him down. Likewise, Corazon's life goal was to keep his brother's madness in check, but when he met Law, he only felt compassion for someone so tragic. He not only saved Law from his illness, he kept Law from becoming just like his evil brother Doflamingo, with his last breath claiming Law was free from him.
The founding members of the Donquixote Pirates had the impression that he despised children, as whenever one approached the gang, he would violently reject them. However, rather than hating children, he had compassion for them, so tried to prevent them selling their lives for his brother's evil ambitions; when they persist regardless, like Law had, he understood the depth of their desperation, thus tried to help them - typically detached, but became invested in Law's safety, finding himself as the boy's foster father due to affection for him.
While he wasn't able to stop his brother's evil deeds, he inspired Law to take up his goal instead, culminating in the Dressrosa arc thirteen years later and the end of Doflamingo's reign of terror. Even pointing a gun at Doflamingo, he was unable to pull the trigger because he was too kind-hearted.
