In the immense universe of One Piece , where every corner of the Grand Line holds secrets and adventures, one question always lingers in fans' minds: who is Luffy's father? This question, like a treasure hidden beneath the waves, sparks theories and discussions among followers of Eiichiro Oda's masterpiece.

Although the focus is usually on Monkey D. Luffy, the charismatic captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, curiosity about his family origins, especially regarding his father, never ceases to arise.

Who is Monkey D. Luffy in One Piece?

Monkey D. Luffy is the protagonist of the acclaimed manga and anime series One Piece , created by Eiichiro Oda. Although born in the East Blue, Luffy grew up in the quiet Foosha Village, where he was raised by his grandfather, Monkey D. Garp , a legendary Marine Vice Admiral known as "Garp the Fist," and the villagers.

Luffy is known for his unwavering determination to become the Pirate King. Inspired by his childhood idol, Red-Haired Shanks , who saved his life and gave him his iconic straw hat, Luffy embarked on a journey to find the legendary treasure, One Piece , hidden somewhere in the Grand Line.

Despite the significant figures who shaped his life, one question remained unanswered for a long time: who is Luffy's father?

Luffy's father's identity revealed

Monkey D. Dragon , known as Dragon the Revolutionary , is Luffy's father. Dragon is the leader of the Revolutionary Army, a secret and powerful organization dedicated to fighting the World Government and combating corruption. His revolutionary activities have made him one of the most wanted men in the world.

Therefore, Dragon chose to keep his distance from Luffy to protect him. As the son of the leader of such a dangerous organization, Luffy would be an ideal target for the World Government . By distancing himself, Dragon tried to prevent Luffy from suffering the consequences of his actions.

Dragon is also the son of Monkey D. Garp , famous for his strength and impressive record as a Marine, as well as his connection to Gol D. Roger , the former Pirate King. However, Luffy learned about Dragon from Garp during the Water 7 , after a brief encounter in Loguetown , where Dragon saved Luffy from Smoker.

Therefore, the relationship between Luffy and Dragon is still a mystery in One Piece , leaving fans eager to know how this connection will impact future events.
