Demaro Black


 * Not to be confused with the real captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Monkey D. Luffy

The Fake Luffy is the captain of the Impostor Straw Hat Pirates, appearing 2 years after the War at Marineford.

Appearance
Fake Luffy appears to be a large and fat middle aged man, attempting to resemble Luffy with the trademark scar with three stitches on his face, the Straw Hat, and clothes. He also has an X-shaped scar on his stomach and another scar on his left shoulder. All in all he looks virtually nothing like the real Luffy (except perhaps when using the Gomu Gomu no Fuusen technique). He is almost always smiling, even after being wounded.

Personality
Fake Luffy is an extremely ruthless and egotistical man who is disguised as Luffy and uses his name and reputation to do as he pleases, with seemingly no opposition. Unlike the real Luffy, who places little importance to a person's background, his fake counterpart revels at Luffy's relation as the Revolutionary Dragon's son, and justifies his actions by openly bragging about it. He angers easily when things don't go as planned, and is more than willing to gun down anyone who upsets him. He has no qualm with hurting innocent people, apologizing sarcastically after accidentally shooting bystanders he mistook for his enemies. However, his arrogance seems to judge his better judgement, having failed to recognize the real members of the Straw Hat Crew upon first encounter. Fake Luffy has shown to be bit of a coward, as he shoved Fake Nami away when she was getting eaten by a large plant and begging for her captain's help.

Powers and Abilities
So far he has been seen with a flintlock pistol but hasn't shown any real proficiency with it, instead just shooting it indiscriminately. He seems to have some degree of endurance as he took attacks from both Usopp's pop greens and Nami's thunderbolts and was still able to get up and walk away, albeit in bad shape. His greatest ability is perhaps manipulation, fooling people into believing that he is the real Luffy despite having no real resemblance to him. This allows him to recruit even powerful pirates with high bounties.

History
Fake Luffy is first seen in a bar in the Sabaody Archipelago, looking for new recruits for his crew along with Fake Nami, Fake Sogeking, and Fake Franky. After shooting and dismissing a potential recruit for having a low bounty, he invited Nami to join, apparently not recognizing her as a member of the real Straw Hats. When she refused, he and his crew angerly advanced on her, only to be attacked by carnivorous plants which were later revealed to be created by Usopp's new Pop Greens. Fake Luffy and his crew were then struck by a massive thunderbolt created by Nami as she and Usopp left the bar. Although wounded, Fake Luffy was able to get up and ordered his men to find their attackers.

Fake Luffy is later seen sarcastically apologizing to a couple after shooting them, having mistaken them for Usopp and Nami. He then shoots the man in cold blood for objecting. Suddenly, he gets knocked down by a passerby carrying a large backpack. As the passerby apologizes and moves on, Fake Luffy shoots to his feet and yells to the man to stop. It is then revealed that the passerby is none other than the real Monkey D. Luffy.

Trivia

 * On an interesting note, both the fake Luffy and the real Luffy have an X shaped scar on their fronts, despite the fact Luffy only gained that scar during the 2 year time skip.
 * He has a unique laugh: "Dohaha".
