ONE PIECE: Taose! Kaizoku Ganzack

Luffy Monkey

モンキー・D・ルフィ

__Height:__ 172 cm __Affiliations:__ ~!Straw Hat Pirates (Captain); Four Emperors!~ __Devil Fruit:__ Gomu Gomu no Mi (Rubber-Rubber Fruit) __Devil Fruit Type:__ Paramecia ~!__True Devil Fruit:__ Hito Hito no Mi Model: Nika (Human-Human Fruit) __True Devil Fruit Type:__ Mythical Zoan!~ __Bounty:__ ~!3,000,000,000 (previously: 1,500,000,000, 500,000,000, 400,000,000, 300,000,000, 100,000,000 and 30,000,000)!~ Luffy is the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates and is best friends with all of them and values them over all else. At first glance, Luffy does not appear to be very intelligent, often seeing things in childish manner and can easily be amazed by the simplest things. However, because he views the world in a straightforward and simple manner, he is occasionally the only person who can see past the events and see what should be done. Luffy seems to have an unstoppable appetite, a characteristic that is common to the Japanese archetype of the (at times simple-minded) young adventurer with a heart of gold; perhaps the hunger more so in Luffy's case due to having an elastic stomach. Luffy is also another one of the several characters given the middle initial "D". Although Luffy is fairly lightheaded and a funny character, he has an unstoppable sense of determination, optimism and commitment and will do anything to stand up for his friends and comrades. Along with that, he has great courage to back it up as well as unbelievable strength. Ever since consuming the devil fruit he was shown to be not worried about his inability to swim, much like his brother. Much of these traits are common among D's. His only display of true fear is towards his grandfather, to the point that he does not fight back and is intimidated at the mere mention of him. Luffy never kills any of the villains, no matter how cold-hearted they are; instead, he frequently sends the villain flying, knocking them out or until the point that they are almost near death, which results in some of the villains searching for revenge, such as [Buggy the Clown](https://anilist.co/character/725) and [Alvida](https://anilist.co/character/4899). Author [Eiichiro Oda](https://anilist.co/staff/96881) explains that it's not a question of morality so much as a matter of punishing the villains for their crimes - he feels that killing the villains lets them off too lightly, whereas he considers letting them live to see their dreams be ruined a far more fitting punishment. Luffy has a dream, and to even have a chance at achieving this dream, he says that he must find the One Piece and become King of the Pirates. He knows that to achieve his goal, he will have to defeat many strong opponents, including the World Government and his childhood hero [Shanks](https://anilist.co/character/727).

Zoro Roronoa

ロロノア・ゾロ

__Height:__ 178 cm (5'10") __Affiliation:__ ~!Straw Hat Pirates (current); Kuraigane Island (former, temporary); Shimotsuki Village (former)!~ __Bounty:__ ~!1,111,000,000 (previously: 60,000,000, 120,000,000 and 320,000,000)!~ Zoro was the first crew member to be recruited by [Luffy](https://anilist.co/character/40/Luffy-Monkey). Zoro is a skilled swordsman who fights with his own unique sword style known as santoryu (three katana fighting style). This is achieved by using one katana in each hand, and another in his mouth. He is also seen fighting with only one or two swords. When in a serious fight he ties his normally, tied on the arm bandana, on his head. Though not a samurai, he appears to maintain a certain degree of bushido, and is frequently mistaken for one. Unlike Luffy and most of the other Straw Hat pirates, Zoro has been known to kill his opponents if he has to, though never in cold blood. Zoro has a stern, serious and distanced personality, however he often reacts in a goofy and exaggerated comic style due to his gruff, impatient attitude. On the ship, he normally either trains with weights or sleeps. The only work he is seen doing regularly is hoisting the anchor using his great strength. He also likes sake, almost to the degree that Luffy likes meat, but like [Nami](https://anilist.co/character/723/Nami), he never gets drunk due to his inhumanly-high endurance and tolerance for alcohol. Another notable trait is his lack of orientation, as Zoro often gets lost, even in small, familiar spaces or when being led by someone. Despite this, he is often the first to sense an enemy or danger, and the first to react. He is often displayed being well aware of dangerous situations and people around him. Zoro often reminds others of the harsh facts, which often shocks some of the other crew members, although they usually decide he is right. Zoro has also stated that he is an atheist, and has never believed in anything except himself. He often comes across as arrogant and overconfident, but only because he knows he's a strong man with great fighting ability. Even so, Zoro knows that he still has a lot of untapped potential, and is constantly seen training and trying to improve his fighting skills. He adheres to a strict sword master's code of honor, and never falsely brags or lies about his abilities, sometimes outright admitting a weakness, even to an enemy. He also never tries to escape from a fight or use trickery to win, believing that doing so is cowardly and scorning anyone who uses such tactics. Zoro is very vigorous, strong-willed, and determined.

Nami

ナミ

__Height:__ 169 cm (5'6½”) __Affiliation:__ Straw Hat Pirates __Position:__ Navigator __Bounty:__ ~!366,000,000 (previously; 16,000,000 and 66,000,000)!~ Nami is the third person to align herself with Straw Hat Pirates, and the fifth to actually join as an official member. Possibly one of the best navigators currently sailing the Grand Line, she has the ability to recognize and analyze even the slightest changes in the weather through sheer intuition, thus saving the ship and the crew from the very unstable Grand Line weather on multiple occasions.
