## Characters

- Monkey D. Luffy - the main character and captain of the _Straw Hat Pirates_. He is also known as 'Straw Hat Luffy'. He ate a _Devil Fruit_ called the "Gomu-Gomu No Mi" when he was 7 years old, giving him the ability to stretch like rubber. His Straw hat was given to him by _Shanks_. His older brothers are _Ace_ and _Sabo_.
- Roronoa Zoro - a former pirate hunter. He was the greatest warrior in his dojo, next to _Kuina_, the his teacher's daughter. They then make a promise to one another that one of them will be the greatest swordsman. The very next day Kuina dies. Zoro takes her sword so he can fulfill their dream.
- Sanji - A martial artist and cook that falls in love with almost every girl he sees. His dream is to find 'The All Blue', a sea where ingredients from all over the world can be found, and as a cook he reveres his hands greatly.
- Nami - A thief who stole from pirates and a member of the _Arlong_ pirates. She is the navigator of the _Straw Hat Pirates_ now.
- Usopp - A sniper, coward and liar. _Luffy_ officially made him the crew's sniper after he had perfect aim on his first try at shooting a cannon, destroying an island in one blow.
- Tony Tony Chopper - A blue-nosed reindeer who ate a fruit which gave him the ability to become partly human. He is the doctor of the _Straw Hats_ crew, and has a habit of "hiding behind objects" in a way where he is completely visible.
- Nico Robin - A former member of the crime organization _Baroque Works_, joins the crew after being saved by _Luffy_.  She ate the _Hana-Hana no mi_ (Flower-Flower fruit) which lets her create replications of her body parts on any surface she wants, including living organisms.
- Franky - A cyborg and a ship breaker. His body runs on Cola, although using other drinks results in a shift in personality like when he was given tea and became more wise.
- Brook- A living skeleton who used to be a part of _Gol D. Roger's_ crew. Brook ate the Yomi-Yomi no mi (Revive-Revive fruit) which allowed him a second life after his death as a skeleton.

### Romance Dawn (The start of adventure)

Once upon a time, "The King of Pirates", _Gol. D. Roger_ attained all things the world had to offer. As he was being executed by the Marines, he gave a speech regarding his treasure, which he left on an island in the Grand Line called the "One Piece". Many pirates wish to claim the ¨One Piece¨. This has caused what is called "The Great Pirate Era". Then, a boy living in Foosha Village, _Monkey. D. Luffy_, made friends with "_Red-Haired" Shanks_. _Shanks_ is a powerful pirate, given the title of _Yonko_ (Four Emperors, consisting of four of the strongest pirates) staying in the town. One day, _Luffy_ ate a _Devil Fruit_ that _Shanks_´ crew had stolen from a Marine ship, called the "_Gomu-Gomu no Mi_" (Gum Gum/Rubber Rubber fruit), giving him the ability to stretch like rubber, in exchange for taking away his ability to swim. At one point _Luffy_ had gotten angry at some bandits for insulting _Shanks_ and attacked them. The leader of the bandits was going to kill _Luffy_, but _Shanks_ helped save him by defeating the bandits. This angered _Higuma_ (the leader of the bandits) so he threw _Luffy_ into the sea. _Luffy_ was nearly eaten by a _Sea King_, a sea monster similar to a Sea Serpent, but _Shanks_ helped him, losing his arm in the process. When _Shanks_ left Foosha Village, he gave Luffy his straw hat. In exchange, _Luffy_ had promised _Shanks_ to become the _King of the Pirates_ and deliver him his straw hat.

### East Blue Saga

After 10 years of training, _Luffy_ leaves his home, _Foosha Village_, to begin his journey to become the _king of pirates_. But soon, his boat got stuck in a whirlpool, and he jumped inside a barrel to survive. He eventually ends up at _Alvida´s_ base where he meets _Koby_. _Koby_ is a chore boy on _Alvida´s_ crew. _Koby's_ dream is to be a _marine_, but unfortunately, he is forced to stay on _Alvida's_ crew in exchange for his life. _Luffy_ ends up telling _Koby_ that he would do anything to achieve his dream, and _Koby_ is inspired. This gives _Koby_ enough courage to stand up to _Alvida_ with _Luffy_. _Luffy_ ends up defeating _Alvida_ and sails to _Shell Town_ with him because it is the nearest _Marine_ base.

#### Shell Town (part of East Blue saga)

In Shell Town, Luffy meets _Roronoa Zoro_, the legendary pirate hunter, who is tied to a post in a naval base. _Zoro_ has been tied up for the crime of killing _Helmeppo´s_ (The local captain´s son) dog because they were about to attack a little girl. _Helmeppo_ promises _Zoro_ if he can go after he is tied to the post for 30 days without food or water. However, _Luffy_ overhears _Helmeppo_ telling his Marine bodyguards that they´ll execute _Zoro_ tomorrow and break his promise. _Luffy_ becomes enraged over this and punches _Helmeppo_, who runs to go tell his father, Captain _Axe-Hand Morgan_ to get him to beat _Luffy_ up, but Captain _Morgan_ is too busy raising a statue of himself on top of the base. Luffy accidentally breaks the statue, and Captain _Morgan_ orders his guards to kill _Luffy._ _Luffy_ grabs _Helmeppo_ to find out where _Zoro´s_ swords are located and _Koby_ starts untying _Zoro_ from the post; which gets him shot in the armpit by Captain _Morgan_. _Zoro_ and _Luffy_ join up to defeat Captain _Morgan_. All the Marines are happy because Captain _Morgan_ was a tyrant. Koby asks Luffy if they can always be friends even though he´s joining the Marines, and _Luffy_ promises to always be friends with _Koby_. _Luffy_ ends up getting _Zoro_ to join his crew, and they set sail.

#### Baratie

Luffy and Usopp are testing out the new cannons on their ship by firing at an island. Usopp destroys the island first try and Luffy makes him their sniper. They are then jumped by a bounty hunter named Yosaku because the island they destroyed was where he was resting. However Yosaku sees Zoro and stops attacking and calls him 'Big Bro', a title of friendship between them. Yosaku then explains his predicament that his bounty hunting partner is sick with a mysterious disease.
