Monkey D. Dragon

Monkey D. Dragon, commonly known as the "World's Worst Criminal", is the infamous Supreme Commander of the Revolutionary Army who has been attempting to overthrow the World Government.

He is the father of Monkey D. Luffy and the son of Monkey D. Garp.

Few people know that he is one of the husbands of Luna Ordeis and one of the fathers of Adam Ordeis.

## Appearance

Dragon is a tall middle-aged man with spiky black hair with a widow's peak and a tattoo on the left side of his face, which is colored dark red in the anime and bright red in the manga.

He has a bit of stubble on his chin.

He is usually dressed in a long green cloak, underneath which he wears the orange garb of a revolutionary.

He is most often seen sporting a grin.

Only on rare occasions, such as at Roger's execution, has Dragon not been seen smiling.

22 years before the start of the series, at Gol D. Roger's execution, Dragon did not have his tattoo or his stubble on his face.

After the timeskip, Dragon's hair has grown slightly longer - reaching down his back past his shoulders.

## Personality

As the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Dragon is dedicated to dismantling the World Government and its corrupt nobility system that allows its World Nobles to oppress lower-class citizens as they please.

He considers the corrupt nobility in his homeland of the Goa Kingdom to be the same problem on a smaller scale and was enraged when their self-serving actions caused an innocent noble boy like Sabo to denounce them.

When he rescued Sabo the next day from being attacked by a World Noble's ship, Dragon was shown with a powerful glare of anger on his face.

Dragon is typically seen with a serious, business-minded disposition and takes care to stay highly informed about the happenings of the world and educate his subordinates about relevant objects and events in current affairs.

Dragon is quick to caution his subordinates against celebrating small victories, reminding them of the war they are in and of the World Government's great power.

However, he has been shown smiling when reflecting on the changing course of the world, particularly his son Luffy's role in it as a pirate.

Dragon is extremely secretive about his personal life and history, as he did not tell anyone in the Revolutionary Army that he was Garp's son or Luffy's father, and once shut down an attempt by Ivankov to ask if he had family out in the world.

When the news of his family ties came out following the Summit War of Marineford, Dragon noted that it would help his subordinates to see him as a human for once.

Dragon has shown himself to be an empathetic person, particularly to those who are oppressed by the World Government's system.

He checked to see if a young Sabo was all right after seeing him be thrown to the ground, and did not hesitate to take his denouncement of the Goa Kingdom's nobles extremely seriously.

He cares greatly for the plights of people who are oppressed by the World Government and their member islands, and seeks them out to invite them to join his fight for freedom.

He also cares about the members and associates of his army, as shown when he asked Koala if Nico Robin was doing well. When he was under the impression that Portgas D. Ace was Dragon's son, Emporio Ivankov expected that Dragon would go to Marineford to save Ace.

## Powers, Skills & Abilities

As Supreme Commander of the Revolutionary Army, Dragon has the greatest authority over a powerful, globally active paramilitary that has risen to become a prominent threat to the expansive, centuries-old World Government in only a few years.

Dragon's actions have given him the distinction of being the "World's Worst Criminal," yet he has managed to lead a largely secure existence despite the world's greatest powers being after him.

While his individual combat abilities are mostly unknown, he is able to command extremely powerful army officials like his chief-of-staff Sabo and the five commanders, who have all been shown battling and defeating notable pirates and Marines in the Grand Line.

Dragon himself was able to grab Smoker's jitte when the Marine captain was preparing to use it on Luffy, quickly stopping him in his tracks, and despite Dragon's great criminal status, Smoker was not seen making the effort to try and apprehend him.

Additionally, Ivankov noted that Luffy's inhuman will to live in Impel Down made sense for a son of Dragon, indicating that Dragon has a similar level of tenacity.

While at the Goa Kingdom and Loguetown, strong blasts of wind have occurred in close proximity to Dragon which have helped him accomplish his objectives in both places.

It remains unconfirmed if Dragon was directly responsible for these wind blasts or if he has a power enabling him to create them.

Additionally, Dragon was somehow able to reach Sabo's ship as it was sinking far off the coast of Dawn Island and grab him right before he sank without drawing attention from any onlookers.
