Monkey D. Luffy

Monkey D. Luffy (モンキー･D･ルフィ) is a pirate and the main protagonist of One Piece. He is the son of the Revolutionary Army's commander; Dragon, grandson of the famed Marine, Garp, and the foster brother of the late "Fire Fist Portgas D. Ace." His goal is to find One Piece, the legendary treasure left behind by the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger. As the founder and captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, he is the first member that makes up the crew as well as one of its top three fighters. Luffy is currently one of eleven rookie pirates who have been referred to as "The Eleven Supernovas," having a bounty of 300,000,000. He has the second highest bounty in The Eleven Supernovas and has gathered up a reputation, even among the Yonkou, the Shichibukai, and the Marines, committing actions that were deemed dangerous by the World Government. Starting with the incident of Enies Lobby, Luffy has continuously committed crimes against the World Government. This, in addition to his heritage has caused Luffy to be labeled as a "dangerous future element."

Appearance
Luffy is renowned for wearing his trademark Straw Hat (from which he gets his nickname "Straw Hat Luffy") which was lent to him when he was young by the legendary pirate captain, "Red-Haired Shanks." His outfit somewhat mimics Shanks' own outfit in that he wears short pants (although his are much shorter than Shanks') along with sandals and a vest. Luffy has a scar underneath his eye (he got it in Chapter 1) and short black hair. He appears to be somewhat scrawny, however underneath his shirt he has a surprisingly well built physique.

Luffy, for the most part, has the same outfit over most of the series, as opposed to the rest of the crew. Luffy may wear a different outfit to suit the climate of an island (like a hooded parka Drum Island or desert robes in Arabasta), but will switch back to his trademark vest and shorts after the adventures on that island are over.

Though Luffy prominently wears a red vest and blue shorts, he will wear his usual outfit in different colors. For example, in Enies Lobby he wears black shorts because they had pockets in which he could carry meat, on the Thriller Bark Island he wears an orange vest and red shorts, and on the Sabaody Archipelago he wears a blue vest and dark blue shorts. During the break in at Impel Down Luffy has been shown wearing a light blue vest with red shorts and after the fight between Magellan and Luffy, Inazuma gave to him a yellow vest. He does, however, no matter where he is, wear his Straw Hat through absolutely everything, though at the start, the hat was prone to getting knocked off his head easily, forcing Luffy to either put it aside or have someone hold onto it during battles, he has since gotten a string strap for it, allowing the hat to hang from his neck during fights.

During his return to Marineford to give a silent prayer, Luffy was shown with 4 characters written on his right arm spelling 3D 2Y, with the 3D crossed out to symbolise that the Straw Hat Pirates should meet up in 2 years (2Y) rather than the 3 days (3D) intended after fleeing from Sabaody Archipelago. The writing was removed sometime after Jinbei left for Fishman Island and before Luffy and Rayleigh got to Rusukaina Island, and because bleach wiki is being a meanie - Sarah wants to screw Ichigo HARD. Oh and my balls are itchy.
