Straw Hat Pirates/Allies

Template:Straw Hat Pirates Infobox Throughout the series, there have been people who either traveled with one or all of the Straw Hat Pirates for a short period of time or aided them in one way or another. Many of these individuals would be considered temporary pirates in a way. Along with those individuals, there have also been various groups that have assisted the Straw Hats in their adventures. These groups have helped the Straw Hats either to reach a certain goal or to defeat a common enemy.

Alliances

Straw Hat-Galley-La-Franky Family Alliance

The Straw Hat-Galley-La-Franky Family Alliance is formed.

An alliance formed on the way to Enies Lobby to rescue Nico Robin and Franky from the World Government, as well as retaliate against CP9 for the assassination attempt on Iceburg. The majority of the help occurred in the courtyard and courthouse in order to help the Straw Hats reach the Tower of Justice and face the CP9 agents, with the Franky Family entrusting the rescue of their leader to the pirates. The allies went their separate ways when the Straw Hats continued their journey with Franky as their new Shipwright, and the Franky Family started working for Iceburg and the Galley-La Company. This alliance is aided by Kokoro, Chimney, Gonbe, Yokozuna, Oimo, Kashi, Iceburg and Usopp under the alias "Sogeking".

Straw Hat-Heart Alliance

The news about the Straw Hat-Heart Alliance are published.

An alliance between the Straw Hat Pirates and the Heart Pirates formed on Punk Hazard by their two captains in order to defeat Kaido, one of the four Yonko of the New World. According to Law, who proposed the alliance, their cooperation would give them a 30% chance to defeat the Yonko. The plan was to destroy Kaido's source of SMILE delivered by Doflamingo, weakening him while letting Doflamingo take on Kaido's anger. However, the events on Dressrosa made Law concerned about Kaido's reaction. This alliance is aided by Kin'emon, Momonosuke, Kanjuro, and an unwilling Caesar Clown, and briefly by the G-5 marines under Vice Admiral Smoker and Captain Tashigi, the kidnapped kids used for Caesar experiments, and Brownbeard on Punk Hazard, and by the Corrida Colosseum fighters including the Straw Hat Grand Fleet members, Elizabello II, Dagama, the Riku Family, the citizens of Dressrosa and Green Bit, a representative of the Revolutionary Army, and Admiral Fujitora on Dressrosa. The alliance eventually would grow to became the "Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance" on Zou.

Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance

The representatives of the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance agree to the terms.

An alliance of the Kozuki Family retainers with the Straw Hat-Heart Alliance formed on Zou in response to Momonosuke's request for the pirates to help him avenge his parents against the Beasts Pirates and the shogun of Wano Country and release Wano from their control. The alliance attack is postponed until the Sanji rescue mission from the Big Mom Pirates is completed. Nekomamushi has shown interest in finding and recruiting Marco and the remaining Whitebeard Pirates. This alliance is aided by the entire Mink Tribe, through its leaders, Zunisha, and the Kozuki Family allies and rebels from Wano.

Sanji Retrieval Team-Fire Tank Alliance

The Sanji Retrieval Team and the Fire Tank Pirates meet.

An alliance formed between the Sanji Retrieval Team and the Fire Tank Pirates. Both groups agreed to work together during Big Mom's Tea Party, the main event of which will be the wedding ceremony between the Germa Kingdom's third prince (and the Straw Hats' cook), Vinsmoke Sanji, and Big Mom's 35th daughter, Charlotte Pudding. While the two groups share a common opposition to Big Mom, they have slightly different goals: The Straw Hats want to prevent Big Mom's planned assassination of Sanji and his family during the event, while Capone Bege, Captain of the Fire Tank Pirates, wants to use the opportunity to take down Big Mom herself. The alliance was offered by Jinbe after hearing of both wedding day conspiracies from Pekoms, who was targeted by the Fire Tank Pirates, and Brook, who was present when Pudding and Big Mom discussed their plans. The plan, according to Bege, is to use Big Mom's Haki infused reaction to Luffy destroying Mother Caramel's photograph, rending her forces unconscious, and tiring Big Mom herself, weakening her enough for Caesar Clown to use KX Launchers to finish her off, while the Straw Hats rescue Sanji's family, before escaping through the Mirror-World to the safety of the crews ships, ending their alliance. The alliance is supported by Jinbe and his Sun Pirates, who are keeping Pekoms from alerting Big Mom; Sanji, who was reunited with the retrieval team shortly before the crews met; Bege's wife and Big Mom's 22nd daughter, Charlotte Chiffon, who no longer considers herself part of the Charlotte Family nor acknowledges her mother as a parent due to the pain and suffering she put her through; an unwilling Caesar Clown, whose heart is in the possession of Bege; and Big Mom Pirates members Charlotte Brûlée and Diesel, who were held captive by the Straw Hats. The Vinsmoke Family later joined the allied forces as the true intentions of the Big Mom Pirates was revealed to them at the Tea Party, and Brûlée was rescued by her brother.

Hatchan also promised as soon as he was feeling better and the Straw Hats ship was coated he would guide them to Fishman Island.

He healed Luffy from the brink of death with his Horu Horu no Mi powers, and then, upon learning that Luffy was the son of Dragon, his leader, he assisted Luffy in breaking free from Impel Down (though it is implied that he only did this to free Ace, since until Luffy told him that they weren't blood related, Ivankov assumed Ace was also Dragon's son). He then protected Luffy during the Battle of Marineford, being the one person as well as Jinbe to fight most by his side. After the war, he boarded a Marine ship along with his Newkama followers and, seeing that Luffy was in good hands with Boa Hancock, left with his people to return to his home.

After the escape, Crocodile made his intention of taking Whitebeard's head clear, upon which he immediately acted on as soon as he arrived in Marineford. During the Battle of Marineford, Crocodile fought on his own side, aligning himself with no one, and Mr. 1 loyally followed suit. During the course of the battle, he fought Luffy's allies, the Whitebeard Pirates, but then helped save Ace and even Luffy himself, claiming that he did it only because he did not want the Marines to have their way. As such, Mr. 1 also helped protect Luffy against Dracule Mihawk. After the battle, Crocodile and Mr. 1 healed their wounds on an island in the Grand Line, deciding to enter the New World.

At the Battle of Marineford, Jinbe, upon renouncing his title as a Shichibukai, was one of the two to most assist Luffy during the battle, along with Emporio Ivankov. After Luffy's mind collapsed from Ace's death, Jinbe swore to protect Luffy at any cost, and was almost killed by Akainu, but was saved and healed by Law. After returning to Amazon Lily with Luffy, he managed to shake Luffy out of his depression by making him realize that he still had something precious to hold on to: his crew. He then joined Luffy, along with Silvers Rayleigh, as they invaded Marineford once more so that Luffy could ring the Ox Bell. After returning from Marineford, Jinbe took a last goodbye and told Luffy he wished to meet him in two years in Fishman Island. Jinbe took off with a whale shark. He is next seen waiting for Luffy at Otohime's grave, where he relates the history of Fisher Tiger and Queen Otohime to the Straw Hats. Jinbe then formulated a plan with them to rescue King Neptune and his family from execution, as well as demonstrate to the populace that humans and Fishmen could work together by fighting alongside the crew against the New Fishman Pirates. Following their victory, Luffy asked Jinbe to join his crew. Although his offer was declined, Jinbe asked that Luffy ask him again the next time they met. He decided to leave his crew and his obligation to the Big Mom Pirates in order to join the Straw Hats, however due to Big Mom's rigged penalty roulette, he took his decision back and decided to outright rebel, stating Luffy is his captain, and he is willing to die for him. He later came to the aid of Luffy and Nami when they were imprisoned by Big Mom, and took out Charlotte Opera who was guarding them. He later helped rescuing Brook from Big Mom, and informed the Sanji Retrieval Team about an ongoing plot that put Pekoms in danger. He later offered the Straw Hats to join forces with Capone Bege, the man behind the plot, in order to achieve their goals. During the meeting he was the one who pointed out that despite past frictions between the two groups, their shared hatred is enough to momentarily work together. Later in front of Big Mom, Jinbe declared that he is leaving her crew to join the Straw Hats and toasted a cup of sake to make it official.

Two years later, Franky returned to see a heavily damaged Kuma guarding the ship. Upon seeing Franky, Kuma left the ship, stating that his mission to protect the Thousand Sunny was completed.

After the fight, he was seen cooperating with the Fishman Island's Ammo Knight, helping to exile Wadatsumi.
Trafalgar D. Water Law	Punk Hazard Arc to Zou Arc	Law offered a formal alliance with the Straw Hats to Luffy, as a means of dethroning the Yonko, Kaido.

When asked by Doflamingo why Law would go through such lengths to believe in Luffy, he claimed that "D." would cause another storm. Later on, Law told Luffy of his past and revealed that his reason for forming an alliance with Luffy was to take down Doflamingo. After reaching the palace, the two confronted Doflamingo together. Luffy protected a wounded Law during the battle, and when Law was taken to safety, he demanded to stay behind to watch the battle between Luffy and Doflamingo.

After he lost the block, Diamante gave him the order to kill Luffy much to his anxiety but he soon discovered Doflamingo had ordered Dellinger to kill him. Betrayed, he went to confront Doflamingo during the Birdcage game and was beaten badly. When Luffy arrived to fight Doflamingo, he spotted a wounded Bellamy and tried to rescue him, claiming that they are friends, but was forced to fight him while he was under Doflamingo's power and later to knock Bellamy out when he gravely regretted his alliance choices. After the battle, he was healed by Law at Luffy's request, and escaped Dressrosa with the Straw Hat Pirates and their allies. After the formation of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet he took a piece of Luffy's Vivre Card but noted that he isn't Luffy's subordinate.

After Sanji was beaten by his brothers, she took care of him personally, before their family left for Whole Cake Chateau and encountered Luffy and Nami on the way. Reiju seemed pleased when she saw her brother's friends, and troubled when Sanji attacked Luffy. Later that day, she investigated Charlotte Pudding, only to be surprised and captured by her. After she was taken to the infirmary, she was informed by Sanji about the Charlotte Family's plans, before explaining about their mother's past. Reiju tried to convince Sanji to leave their family, including herself, to die, and to escape with his friends (whom she refers to as "amazing"), but Sanji refused. While Luffy searched for Sanji inside Whole Cake Chateau, Reiju once again helped Luffy by hiding him from the Big Mom Pirates and informing him that Sanji was aware of Pudding's deception.
