25. Luffy wants to be King of the Pirates. Brook, one of his crew members, does not know what the Pirate King is. The previous Pirate King, whose name the whole world knows, is just “some rookie whose name I think I heard once or twice” to him.
26. As a rookie, Ace declared he wanted to kill Whitebeard, one of the strongest pirates in the world. Whitebeard found him after he fought for five days, kind of kidnapped him, and just let him keep attempting to murder him until Ace became unfalteringly loyal to him. Ace was also free to leave at any time and face Zero (0) consequences for trying to kill Whitebeard. He became Whitebeard’s Second Division Commander soon after pledging loyalty.
27. Luffy’s dad raised his dead brother. None of them were aware of this fact whilst growing up. I don’t think Luffy himself knows.
28. Luffy once beat a god (kinda) by simply turning his brain off so his dodges couldn’t be predicted.
29. Luffy once fought undercover in a tournament under the name Lucy after having previously declaring that his name was Luffy. Everyone bought it.

32. When he needed a disguise, he simply put a basket over his head.
33. When Luffy was first putting together his pirate crew, he heard of this guy called Zoro the Pirate Hunter. He decided that was going to be his first crewmember.
34. When said pirate refused to join Luffy, Luffy blackmailed him by saying he had to join or Luffy would not save him from his execution. That guy very quickly became his First Mate and has been extremely loyal to him.
35. They once took a giant ocean geyser to a Sky Island. They got down by using an octopus as a hot air balloon.
36. Luffy has a crewmember whose dad left when he was little to become a pirate. Said father is in Luffy’s mentor’s crew. Luffy has met him and thinks he’s cool.
37. Luffy spent ten years learning how to throw a punch. Once he did that, he set off for the seas.
38. Luffy nearly drowned after he set sail. He survived by hiding in a floating barrel that got picked up by a nearby pirate ship.
39. Luffy fought a whale.
40. The aforementioned Buggy climbed the ranks to earn the most powerful pirate rank below Pirate King by bullshitting. Everyone, including the government, bought it hook, line, and sinker.
41. There’s a Super Serious Samurai who was able to save the day by communicating via farts.
42. There’s a sect of furries that get a powerup and magical anime girl transformation under the full moon.
43. The government livestreamed a war. To the whole world.
44. When they cut it off so they could freely do shit that made them look bad, Buggy secretly continued the livestream. But only on him.
45. Luffy’s cook, Sanji, is a popular comic book character.
46. The aforementioned Surgeon of Death once fanboyed about Sanji with a completely deadpan face.
47. Jinbe, a pirate who formerly held a pretty high rank, who was the captain of his own crew, suddenly decided to join Luffy. Luffy never even told his crew that they were friends.
48. Luffy didn’t know who his dad was until several arcs in, when his grandpa found him and decided to tell him. Once he heard his dad’s name, he didn’t even realize that that was the name of the most wanted man in the world. His entire crew was completely baffled.
49. That girl on Luffy’s crew who knows the location of the Death Star? She was on the enemy’s side earlier into the story. At the end of the arc, she suddenly appeared on his ship, said “I’m on your crew now,” and Luffy just went “cool.”
50. Luffy loved his older brother, Ace, to death. Luffy was Ace’s reason for living. Ace tried to kill him for six months when they first met.
51. Luffy managed to break into the max security prison that had previously only had a singular person break out. He went to bail out his brother. 500 prisoners escaped that day.
52. There’s a secret Queer Club the warden has never found.
53. Luffy princess carried The Surgeon of Death for several chapters because he couldn’t figure out how to uncuff him. He had the keys.
54. A few of them were once slowly getting solidified in wax. Instead of being concerned with survival, Zoro chose to strike a cool pose.
55. Luffy’s mentor is in a ton of the openings. He has 20 minutes of screentime.
