Born on May 5, Luffy dreamed of being a pirate since childhood. At
the age of 17, Luffy sets sails from the East Blue Sea to the Grand
Line in search of the legendary treasure, One Piece, to succeed Gol
D. Roger as King of the Pirates. Luffy, captain of the Straw Hat
Pirates, recruits crew members, ghts antagonists, and aids and
befriends the inhabitants of several islands on his journey. Usually
cheerful, he becomes serious when he ghts. Luffy uses his
elasticity to concentrate his power, executing a range of attacks. In
his signature attack, Gum-Gum Pistol, he slingshots punches at
opponents from a distance. Luffy also grows stronger over the

grandson of Monkey D. Garp and son of Monkey D. Dragon,[1] but
was raised by Curly Dadan, his foster mother,[2] meeting Portgas D.
