I'm always a fan of lees with a special physiology, and Luffy is definitely one of them. I like the idea that his Devil Fruit has made his skin not just incredibly stretchy, it's also given it a rubbery texture and made it... what's the word for something that's smooth but creates a lot of attrition? Kind of like an eraser lol
This means that things like feathers don't work very well, but, on the other hand, you can dig in as much as you like without fear of hurting him, meaning that fingers are probably one of the best tools, but backscratchers and hairbrushes also work, though scrub brushes with soapy water are especially devastating to him. I also feel like tickling him with seastone tools or lickling him with saltwater in your mouth would both be extremely mean things to do to him that would cause his sensitivity to shoot through the roof.
In terms of preference, Luffy is a switch with a ler streak. He enjoys being tickled, but he doesn't get a craving as a lee, only as a ler. He will never get mad at someone for tickling him, and will usually not even try to fight back, letting the laughter spill out freely... but be warned that by tickling him, you've entered a fiendish covenant, and he will get you back. Only Robin gets a free pass for some reason, and Nami is in the habit of punching him if he tries it, so his male crewmates are his go-to targets... meaning Usopp and Chopper, for the most part.
Yep, my man is super ticklish. Let's break him - it! down.
Smiling (4.5-5.5): Luffy's groin is somewhat ticklish - that is, his balls are. But it's not a very rewarding area to tickle because as we know he's so aroace he doesn't even know th emeaning of erection (he probably doesn't, for real).
Giggling (6-7): These areas are a little sensitive, but I'll say that his hips shoot up to a 9+ if you dig in with seastone.
Laughter (7.5-8.5): Most of his body. Yep. Lucky for him, he enjoys it lol The scar even made his chest ticklish, which it wasn't before. His feet are probably the only area that got less ticklish when he ate his fruit. A scrub brush with soapy water works especially well on all of these areas - car wash Luffy, anyone?
Howling (9-10): There are no 10s on his body, but you can get and/or exceed them with the two methods I mentioned above. His bellybutton is very much a weak spot, but his thighs send him into orbit. I don't know why, maybe because we never see him without those shorts?
A sort information for people who wants One Piece t/fanfiction/art.
It's sort of my fault I didn't say it before but I just watched One Piece until season 3 episode 152. So I don't know much characters but I also got a little spoiled by Yt shorts and tik tok. I'll name all characters I know and the short of people I think I could write a fiction over it.
And by arts, I'm not very good in that and I'm still learning to draw even just a person.
