"We are NOT asking him where the treasure is hidden!!! We're not even asking him whether there IS any treasure atau not!! I'm not sure, but... ...everybody set out to sea, risking their lives to cari for it!!! If anda ask this old man anything about it here and now... Then I'll quit being a pirate! I don't want to go on a boring adventure like that!"

•Luffy is simple minded and doesn't seem to be very intellegent, however he is a genius when it comes to fighting

•In battle, Luffy has shown signs of intelligence, high tactical and innovative skills. He can easily adapt to hindering situations

•Luffy is very loyal to his crewmates and other friends, and can lose his temper quickly if they are harmed in anyway. Luffy is willing to do drastic things to avenge and defend those dear to him

•Luffy also believes that all people should be loyal to their nakama, and if Luffy sees anyone betraying their own comrades, he would stand up for the victims (even if they are enemies)

•He also shows respect for things that a person is willing to die for, be it a treasure atau a secret, to the point of even fighting to protect that which the person would throw their lives away over

•Luffy believes that he is at his "coolest" when he is wearing armor

•Luffy apparently has no skill with insulting people, usually taking either a physical aspect atau unique ability and trying to make it degrading, such as calling Eneru "Earlobes" and Zoro "Yontoryuu"

•If Luffy finds something he doesn't understand, even if someone explained in detail, he calls it a "mystery thing"; like calling dance powder a "mystery powder"

•Luffy never kills any of the villains (no matter how cold-hearted they are); instead, he frequently sends the villain flying, knocking them out atau until the point that they are almost near death. Oda explains that it's not a soalan 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 lebih fitting punishment
