Toei Animation took the opportunity to share the video of Luffy's balloon on social media, which generated numerous comments on the platform.
Synopsis:
The story revolves around Monkey D. Luffy, a young man who gained a body made of rubber after eating the magical Gomu Gomu no Mi (Rubber Fruit). Inspired by his childhood idol, the powerful pirate Shanks the Red-Haired, Luffy decided to become a pirate and sail the seas to find the mythical treasure, the One Piece, and proclaim himself the King of the Pirates.
Eiichiro Oda began serializing One Piece in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1997. Since then, his manga has grown in an astonishing way, becoming the resounding phenomenon it is today. As its story has expanded, the work has reached over 1000 chapters and 100 manga volumes published in 25 years. Even being such an extensive series, One Piece has become the best-selling manga in history.
