Redrum Island

Redrum Island is an autumn island in East Blue. The island is known for the all year-round autumn forests, as well as the birthplace of Tendokyo Thirteen and the crew's co-founder Johannah O' Malley.

Geography
Redrum Island is a large, high island formerly of volcanic origin. Its former volcano stands in one of the major peaks of the island, named Shokkai-dake. The extinct volcano collapsed due to erosion and later on, geological processes gave way to the building of Shokkai-dake, which has a height of 2057 meters (6748 feet).

However, Chibi-yama is the tallest mountain on the island at 3078 meters (10210 feet), as well as its most important. It was built upon by volcanic activity and later on by sedimentation. This two peaks, along with the other major peaks form the Seven Great Mountains of Redrum Island.

Redrum Island's famed all-year long autumn broadleaf forests occupy 90 percent of the landscape, the other 10 percent is occupied by grasslands, beaches and artificial landscape.

Past
Redrum Island was settled by different people from East and South Blue. These people are extremely tall humans. The island's famed red and orange leaf maple forest led the citizens to call the island as "Redrum Island". The former Tendokyo king Tatewaki Heisei I occupied the island and in exchange of the kingdom's protection of it.

Post-War Arc
Redrum Island was formerly an escape island for all the criminals who escaped Impel Down during its first mass breakout. These people did not accept Buggy's invitation of joining the Buggy Pirates. The natives of Redrum Island accepted these convicts to live with them. This includes Muscat O' Malley, a former level 3 prisoner, along with his partner Carmenere Bryce, also a level 3 prisoner.

The Rise of Olivierre
Muscat decided to live with Carmenere and the relationship bore a son, named Olivierre O' Malley, more poularly known as Olbert. Olbert became a pirate which sailed the Grand Line and his actions rose to a bounty of B 160,000,000. However, he and his crew's infamy was stopped in the New World when they were defeated by a new Marine admiral. He was imprisoned in Level 5 of Impel Down and later was freed by the Revolutionaries which in turn destroyed the great prison after everybody was fleed.

Early One Fate
Jonathan has grieved for the death of his father and decided to leave Tendokyo upon the advice of his father's close friend. He set for Redrum Island using a giant lift his father has made. In Redrum Island, he searched alone for a home to stay. Nobody has accepted him until a young girl went to him to say that he can visit her house.

Jonathan accepted it and went to the girl's house. The girl formally introduces herself as Johannah O' Malley. Later, Olbert came back home and saw Jonathan. Olbert called Johannah and asked what is the boy's name. Jonathan introduces himself. Olbert accepted him and gave him food to the hungry-looking Jonathan. Olbert later adopted Jonathan as his son.

First challenge
Ten years later, Albuquerque arrived in Redrum Island in search for the island's hidden wealth. He destroyed the city market since nobody wanted to answer where the treasure is. It is until Jonathan and Johannah came out of their house to go to the trouble area. There Jonathan confronted Albuquerque and started fighting. He later defeated him and allowed Johannah to butt in to defeat the rest of his crew.

The civilians of the island rejoiced to the victory of the two over the invaders and was invited by the mayor to become a guard of the island. However, Johannah replied about their dream of being pirates and asked for a ship they can use. The mayor replied that there is one ship formerly used by the Redrum Raiders in their days in sea invasions.

Jonathan and Johannah sailed away with the ship.

Government
Redrum Island has two large cities, occupying around 5 percent of the island. Redrum City was the larger one and is ruled by Cinco. The other city is Sapporo, which is ruled by Bombay. These two cities are independent and therefore not under any larger political division except for Tendokyo Kingdom, who formerly ocupied the island.

Culture
Redrum Island's culture reflects much to the culture before Modern Japan. The citizens have simple attitude and simple way of living.
