Monkey D. Luffy

darklide · 12-05-2005, 01:20 AM

Hmmm i dont know whether there is a thread about this and if it should be placed here...

Here's what i've been thinking:

The letter D comes often in the manga:
Monkey D. Luffy
Portgas D. Ace
Gold D. Roger
...

And now when i was watching the anime, i watched the episode where luffy fought against aoikoji...

The admiral mentioned about luffy's grand father...and luffy started to sweat...
Im wondering who luffy's granpa is really
and also if everyone in the family is pirate...
So whats ur opinion about this?

**TenshiOni** · 12-05-2005, 01:21 AM

Gold D. Roger is always a predictable favorite.

gizmobear99 · 12-05-2005, 01:45 AM

Acutally, its only Gol D. Roger, or Gold Roger

you are forgetting about blackbeard that his name is marshall d.teach,also dr.kureha said that the "D's will is still alive"

about the "crazy" grandpa that luffy doesn't like to talk or even to think about it,i think is a pirate...i'm not seeing someone of luffy's family as a marine but it would be nice if it was at least one.

i say that the grandpa is a pirate since aokiji said that "i dealt with your grandfather a long time ago" so they must fought :|

Something is bugging me there...
Aokiji said that he dealt with luffy's grand father right?
But aokiji himself doesnt look that old...
So how come?
it would mean that:
1. Luffy's grandpa was pirate till old age
2. He had powers enough to give a marine admiral trouble

simple_be · 12-05-2005, 06:06 AM

well his grandfather is alive since luffy appears to have "afraid" of him

so his grandfather for example can have like 58 years and aokiji have 40 years and they both fought in the past like 10 years ago or something

well at least luffy have a good reason to be afraid of him lol

Raptor · 12-05-2005, 03:00 PM

I still think it's Gold Rogers. Aojiki doesn't look that old but if he's one of the top 3 of the marines he could easily be around 45 or more.

And who can give such trouble to that kind or marines besides the pirate king himself? I dunno but the thing about "dream or destiny" that appeared on ep 45 of the anime and don't remember it on the manga is a foreshadowing about it.

tuggumkee · 12-05-2005, 05:54 PM

Raptor, your sig and avatar gave me the proof. Aokiji was around when nico Robin was, which means he's been around for at least 20 years. Definatly could still be Gol d. Roger, but i personally hope that luffy's grandfather is not gol d. Roger.

darklide · 12-06-2005, 04:18 AM

Nah...dont think think that oda would put gold d roger as luffy's grandpa...
Would ruin the manga IMO...

Shishou · 12-06-2005, 11:16 AM

Its possible it could be Gol D. Roger...

But I don't think so. Cause Luffy seemed like he was mad when his grandfather was mentioned. Plus Luffy holds Gol D. Roger as his idol, and he would refer to him as Grandfather or something...

I think Luffy's grandfather had to have been something very unlike Luffy. Like the man who captured Gol D. Roger or something, lol.

Raptor · 12-06-2005, 11:55 AM

And why not? Almost no one knows anything about Luffy's past much less who his family was. we only know that his brother is Ace and he's a whitebeard fangirl. We knew de deal with Shanks but what else??

And if Gold Rogers was his grandpa probably Luffy doesn't want anyone to know for one reason or the other.

Aizen Sama · 12-06-2005, 02:29 PM

In the original pilot of One Piece (One of them at least, Oda did 2 or 3 I think) Luffy got his straw hat from his grandfather, it shows him in a flashback, he was an old pirate, who I think was quite succesful and famous. The same child Luffy principles applied (Not being able to swim) so its possible that his grand father will be at least similar.

What pilot are you telling?
Could anyone post links if ever there is...

And here is another question:
Why dont Luffy and Ace bear the same family name?

About shanks, i just thought about something...
In the manga and anime, shanks considered Luffy as a real friend though Luffy was a kid...
What about shanks being a friend of Luffy's dad or grandpa?
Or a crewmate?

DrunkenYoshimaster · 12-07-2005, 12:41 AM

^ I guess Ace and Luffy could be just half brothers. Alot of half brothers call eachother brother especially when they come from small families. Plus itd explain Ace's absence in Romance Dawn.

They do. it's "D."

Doesn't seem like it's the case. Shanks seems like a very happy and kind guy so i don't see the problem about befriending Luffy even if he's just a kid.

CABLE · 12-07-2005, 12:46 AM

Robin commented during the Skypia Arc about Rodger and Luffy being related. More than likely he is Luff's g-pa. since one piece is directed towards kids, i don't think oda is looking to make any biggie plot twists.

Shishou · 12-07-2005, 08:54 AM

When did Robin mention that? >.>

The old sky'god': D... I see so they have the same initial, is that why they are so similar?
Robin: Or perhaps the connection between them is another 'lost history'...

Said it earlier :/
