Character Bio

Monkey D. Luffy is the main character of Eiichiro Oda's anime and manga series, One Piece. The character and story theme were originally used in Oda's one-shot manga, Romance Dawn. Luffy is the Captain of the Strawhate Pirates, and from the beginning of the story, aims to become the Pirate King.

He tends to follow the stereotypical Shounen style main character: an overactive appitite, goofy, courageous, and with the potential to become very strong. Though as the series starts off, Luffy is already very strong, and as such, has no need to trying using his Devil's Fruit abilities in a new way until much later on.

Easily identified by his straw hat with a red band around it, a red vest(a hoody in at least one movie), and rolled up shorts, he also has a scar under his eye, given to him by Higuma the Bear when he was 8 years old. This scene is not depited in the anime.

Devil's Fruit Abilities

Luffy's abilities stem from his consumption of the Gomu Gomu no mi, one of the many types of Devil's Fruit.

This initial ability gave Luffy the ability to stretch his body in various ways, which allowed him to use various attacks by increasing the speed, and thereby the force, of his hits. It also gave him the defensive attribute of being resistant to gunfire and cannonfire, all of which will bounce off of him. Despite this, he is still vulnerable to attacks which involve slicing and stabbing.

As with all Devil's fruit abilities, Luffy lost his ability to swim, and becomes a hammer in the water.

Notable attacks

Gomu Gomu no Pistol: A single shot punch preformed by stretching his arm backwards, and allowing it to bounce forward quickly.

Gomu Gomu no Bazooka: A two handed impact peformed by stretching both arms backwards, and allowing them to bounce forward quickly.
