Woop Slap

Woop Slap is the mayor from Luffy's hometown.

Personality
Although he often criticizes Luffy's choice to become a pirate and his growing infamy, he seems to actually care for his well-being, such as when he pleaded for Higuma to spare Luffy's life when he was a young boy. His criticism of the most infamous member of the village, seems to come more from the fact Woop Slap is an authority figure himself, thus he finds Luffy and by extension, his father, waging war on the World Government as absurd. He even believed that Luffy is better than the choice of his nakama who became infamous with him, referring to them as "freaks".

Relationships
He seems to talk to Makino often about Luffy as she appears to be the only one in the village willing to listen to him. He is familiar with Garp and his family (including Dragon), stating how he thinks all 3 generations of Garp's family are crazy. He also questions if Dadan knows about the Enies Lobby incident.

History
He was the first person to stick up for Luffy during his tussle with Higuma.
