One Piece : Why is that luffy better than our luffy

On this day, in the Windmill Village bar, Luffy was mooching food and drinks from the Red-Haired Pirates.

He noticed a wooden box next to Lucky Roux and curiously opened it, only to find a fruit inside covered in mysterious patterns.

"This looks pretty tasty," Luffy said, not thinking much as he grabbed it and started eating.

Dracule Mihawk: "That should be a Devil Fruit, right? He's eating it so happily."

Gecko Moria: "Kishishishi! To eat a Devil Fruit so boldly, this kid has some guts!"

Trafalgar Law: "Indeed, it's the first time I've seen someone eat a Devil Fruit without even furrowing their brows."

Capone Bege: "Speaking of which, when I ate the Castle-Castle Fruit, it felt like I was eating crap..."

Scratchmen Apoo: "Ahpopopo!!! I totally agree!"

Roronoa Zoro: "So this is how Luffy got his Devil Fruit..."

Nico Robin: "It's indeed quite absurd..."

Meanwhile, in Mary Geoise...

Room of Authority.

"Shanks!!!" Nusjuro's eyebrows twisted, angrily shouting.

Mars narrowed his eyes, his expression serious. "Damn it!! Did Shanks snatch that Devil Fruit on the spot? Was it a coincidence that this kid ate it, or was it intentional?"

"Whether it's a coincidence or intentional, Im-sama will definitely not allow him to continue growing with his Devil Fruit ability!" Peter reminded.

At this moment, the big screen didn't continue showing the aftermath in the bar but switched to Luffy's daily training.

Seeing this scene, near Marine Headquarters...

Shanks let out a sigh of relief.

It's a good thing they didn't show the scene of him getting hit by with a bottle of alcohol, otherwise, it would have been embarrassing...

And if they showed the Sea King biting off his arm, that hawk-eyed guy would probably mock him to death...

"Not bad, this viewing system is giving me face..." Shanks secretly thought.

[In the days that followed, the Red-Haired Pirates left Windmill Village.]

[Luffy also set his goal to set sail and become the Pirate King!]

[Day after day, Luffy continued to train himself and often challenged Ace, though he always ended up losing badly.]

[Seven years later, Ace set sail!]

[Ten years later, Luffy set sail!]

At this point, the big screen with the white border gradually dimmed...

Basil Hawkins: "Looking at it this way, Straw Hat Luffy's strength wasn't that impressive when he first set sail. In just a few months, he grew to become a Supernova on par with us..."

Urouge: "The training this guy did before setting sail was really mediocre."

Capone Bege: "This Luffy wasted a lot of time, yet he still became a Supernova. And the other Luffy already mastered Armament Haki at the age of 7. How terrifying will his future strength be?"

Trafalgar Law: "No need to worry. According to the pattern of these two screens, it should be time for the growth video of the red border Straw Hat captain."

Gol D. Roger: "Why isn't it playing yet? I'm really looking forward to seeing how that Luffy kid performs over there!"

Shanks: "Dahaha, Captain, our Luffy here is pretty impressive too!"

At this moment, the big screen with the red border gradually brightened.

Soon, the image appeared.

Time passed day by day, and the red Luffy's daily life followed a regular routine.

In the morning, he went into the mountains, and in the evening, he came back.

His training methods were simple and rough!!

For Armament Haki training, he punched the mountains directly!

For Observation Haki training, he would provoke a group of wild beasts, putting himself in the midst of their attacks, relying on Observation Haki to dodge continuously.

One day, he returned earlier than usual.

"Hmm? Little Luffy, haven't you trained yet today?" Bandit Dadan glanced at the clock on the wall, confused.

Luffy looked at Dadan, hesitating to speak.

He had hit a bottleneck in his Armament Haki training and couldn't improve further. But with no one around him who understood Haki, he felt frustrated.

Dadan walked over. "Little Luffy, what's wrong? Even if something's bothering you, speak up! Maybe I can help."

Luffy sighed. "Dadan, do you understand Armament Haki?"

...

Dadan twitched. 'Do I look like I know anything about that?'

"It's nothing, I'll figure it out myself."

Seeing her reaction, Luffy got his answer and stood to leave for his room.

"Wait!" Dadan stopped him as if something came to mind. "There's a group of pirates in town. I heard they're from the Grand Line. If you want to ask about Haki training, maybe you could ask them."

"Pirates?"

Luffy furrowed his brow, not excited but rather suspicious. "Why are pirates in town? Why didn't you mention this when my grandpa was here?"

'If my grandpa were here, he'd wipe out all the pirates with just a single punch!'

Luffy had been around Garp since childhood. Whenever Garp was on missions, Luffy tagged along on the warship, witnessing many cruel pirates firsthand.

Because he'd seen the darker side of the world early on, Luffy understood the importance of strength.

He trained hard from a young age—not for some noble ideal, but so he wouldn't be used by others!

Though he had no desire to become a Marine, his view of pirates wasn't good either.

He looked at Dadan and seriously warned, "Dadan, since there are pirates in town, you should avoid going there too. Pirates are ruthless killers!"

Trafalgar Law: "Pfft! Luffy, as a pirate captain, is it really okay for you to say that...?"

Monkey D. Luffy: "Ah! Tra-guy, look carefully! It was the red Luffy who said that, not me"

Franky: "Suuuperrrr!! That red Luffy over there seems to have a terrible view of pirates! Could he actually become a Marine?"

Nami: "From his tone, it sounds very possible!"

Monkey D. Garp: "Ah! Can this viewing system swap the characters on both sides? I'm willing to trade one grandson for the other!"

Monkey D. Luffy: "Grandpa..."
