Summary[]

Monkey D. Luffy, known as "Straw Hat Luffy", is the main protagonist of the manga and anime, One Piece. He's the son of Monkey D. Dragon, a revolutionary considered “The World's Most Dangerous Criminal”; the grandson of Monkey D. Garp, a powerful Marine Vice-Admiral who had cornered the late Pirate King himself on several occasions; the sworn brother of late "Fire Fist" Portgas D. Ace and Revolutionary chief of staff Sabo; and the foster son of Curly Dadan. He seeks to find One Piece and become the Pirate King; to accomplish this, he founded the Straw Hat Pirates and set out on the high seas at age 17 in search of the elusive treasure, beginning a series of increasingly odd and dangerous adventures. He has eaten the Gomu Gomu no Mi, which turned his body into rubber and gives him stretching powers; he's developed great mastery and creativity with his powers, creating two unique techniques with them: Gear 2nd, which makes him much faster, and Gear 3rd, which allows him to inflate any body parts for a stronger attack. During the time-skip, he has a new technique: Gear 4th, which makes him much stronger and faster than even the other two Gears, but with a considerable cost to it. With the support from Silvers Rayleigh and the desire to reunite with his crew after the Sabaody Island Incident and the Marineford War, he endured vigorous training on the island of Ruskaina where he learned the 3 forms of Haki, and out of the three, he specialized in “Haoshoku Haki”.

His dream of becoming the Pirate King comes from an incident in his youth involving mountain bandits and a sea king that resulted in his idol Shanks losing his left arm. Before leaving Luffy's village the very next day, Shanks gave him his straw hat, telling him to give it back when he's become a great pirate.

Stamina: Immensely High (Has incredibly high endurance and recovery speed. Capable of lasting in brawls for nearly a dozen hours with no rest. During his more serious fights, Luffy has suffered life-threatening injuries that gave him severe internal bleeding and damage to his organs, and he could continue fighting with only moderate lapses. He only stops fighting when it is physically impossible for him to even move. He took several strikes from Rob Lucci that affected all of his organs and left him in a large puddle of his own blood, yet he could stand back up shortly after and withstand the same attack immediately after. After the Marineford War, Luffy suffered from severe physical and mental trauma due to the loss of his brother, his life-threatening injuries, and having to use adrenaline-based drugs more than once to keep fighting, only to merely pass out and go on a rampage several hours later immediately after going through surgery, and being in perfect condition some time after. During his fight with Charlotte Katakuri, Luffy had only slept for a few hours for the last days, and was vomiting blood, barely conscious, and taking a beating, yet could continue fighting quite effectively, which surprised his opponent. He is capable of fighting for over 13 hours despite having suffering severe injuries all over his body and shrugging off a fatal injury that tore off one side of his torso. Able to persevere with highly lethal poison coursing through his veins and with grave wounds, his stamina can be almost completely restored instantly if he eats meat) | Immeasurable (still had stamina even after going faster than time multiple times) | likely Irrelevant.

Range: Tens of kilometers (He should be capable of reaching further distances currently. The range of his Haoshoku and Kenbunshoku Haki Post-Timeskip should at least be comparable, if not larger than this) | Low Multiverse level | High Outerversal.

Standard Equipment:

  • Straw Hat

Intelligence: Average normally, Genius in combat. (Outside of combat, he is a simpleton, but still an effective leader. Developed his own fighting style, assimilating his unique rubber physique with a mobile brawling approach to battle. Has a prodigious aptitude for battle and keenly seizes the developments of fights to his advantage and doesn't waste any movements during battle. Expertly uses his rubber body in creative ways developing his snap-back techniques to enhance the power of many of his attacks, coming up with Gear 2nd, Gear 3rd, and Gear 4th using his stretching capacity to his benefit in battle. Able to mimic techniques just by seeing them and learning about his opponent's weaknesses to capitalize on them. Has extensive battle experience fighting many different kind of adversaries.) | Nigh-Omniscient (only when in a battle).

Weaknesses: Standard Devil Fruit users weaknesses. Excessive usage of Gear 4th renders Luffy unable to use Haki for 10 minutes. Gear 4th greatly increases Luffy's metabolism, making his body burn calories much faster and greatly lowers how long he can remain in combat. Gear 4th Tankman Full Version can only be utilized when Luffy has consumed a sufficient amount of calories | Same as before. However, after improving his Haki in the Wano arc, he doesn't suffer the same drawback when using Gear 4th, being able to activate and deactivate it at will without suffering any notable toll and being capable of using his King Kong Gun without losing too much stamina in the process. | likely None (via Advanced Armament Haki).
