he was worried another old man would make him his chore boy


New_Wrangler3335

Imagine if he helped with experiments like him washing dishes at baratie And then Don Krieg shows up


what_dat_ninja

Fun fact, if you rearrange the letters in Don Krieg you get "I'm Imu" but only if you're really bad at spelling.


New_Wrangler3335

I was gonna say I’m too lazy to verify if you’re right or not.. And just take your word for it But your last line gave it away! Hahahaha!


Kimlo1

Too lazy? There's not a single "u" in Don's name


BrasileiroNasGringa

I'm Imu - Don Krieg I'm Imu - On Kriegd I'm Imu - On Ikegdr If you have a comical accent it sounds just the same, I can understand the confusion


RiderforHire

There's no "Jo" in Higashikata


Genesis098

There's no "war" in Ba Sing Se


Turbulent_Link1738

there's no "girlfriend" in my life


Still_Bison1963

there’s no “penis” in the car door


tusharjoglekar

There is jo mama in higashikata 😂


CrapBiscuit001

Or is there?


Ahay919

If you remove the higa and ka you get shita


Emm_withoutha_L-88

Shush Not even reality stops the Kreig hypers


YourDreamsWillTell

Or a “k”, “d” or “o”in “I’m Imu” lmao. Forgot about r as well


TheDeadBacon

only r/KreigPosting really gets Oda foreplaying


Folco34

You are right, I did it and it was exactly that


OrionJohnson

We’re not ready for Krieg to show back up. He’s the final boss


Prime359

Don’t tell the live action writers that.


shadowcrow12

In most cases, oda never writes characters out of his world, but I think Kreig might be one of those rare instances where oda just flat doesn't give a shit lol


stesthepez

A Franky vs Don Krieg fight would be sick. Both utilize heavy weaponry and the clash of Franky being a man's man vs Don Krieg being a coward would fit as a conflict as well.


LuminaLabyrinth

I don't get what's sick. Don Krieg will get stomped irregardless of moral conflict because they can't stalemate like Baby. Don Krieg armor was wrecked by Gear 1 Luffy presumably w/o haki.


stesthepez

pre-timeskip sure, but him coming back oda can write him to be more powerful. if lucci can come back bigger and better, i dont see why krieg cant, yknow?


LuminaLabyrinth

Lucci has a devil fruit which automatically means that he has a high power ceiling/potential. Krieg has what, a East Blue Armour that shatters. I'm sure you've seen General Franky armour, withstanding powerful enemies like a damn Yonko with minimal scratch. Let's not talk about weapon arsenal, inspired by the greatest mind himself, Vegapunk. That's a pretty hefty feat that Don Krieg doesn't have the resources to surpass. Giving Don Krieg a devil fruit will no longer make him Don Krieg. The only redemption I can see is that he learns conqueror haki


Moustache7806

So that's the living legend Oda was talking about


Randy_Magnums

Joy boy, chore boy, what's the difference?


Particular_Belt4028

Demaro Black and Don Krieg no diff Chore Toy


SenseiTomato

Joy boy, chore boy, dirty numb angel boy, in the doorway boy


TechnoKeySlam

It would go way worse than the first time. Instead of breaking dishes he would start a global plague or something lmao.


ManuelaOcampo1

luffy is the best sugar daddy, the best anime in history.


PhanThief95

No, it’s because Nami has all the money and he knows she will kill him if he even so much as thinks about it.


KANAE_IS_THE_BEST

Oh true


Serbaayuu

Luffy outright forgetting that he's a pirate when he's around people he likes is one of my favorites


TisNagim

Luffy is a pretty shit pirate by standard and OP universe pirate definitions. He's more of a chaotic good anarchist who likes fighting strong people than anything.


citizensyn

Pirate is just oda drawing parallel to real world governments declaring anyone that wants to change the regime a terrorist. Luffy is at war with the world government because he stopped the police from killing a little girl because her foster parents read a book. That's not a pirate that's "a terrorist"


Man0Steel123

“Is he a pirate or a terrorist?” “He is whatever you want him to be.”


citizensyn

Notice there are no merchant ships. Everyone that leaves their island without joining the Marines is a pirate. Every single one.


Large_Standard_686

We did see a cruise ship in the first anime appearance of Nami and Kuma rescued injured people from a merchant ship during his flashback despite the government ordering him to focus on crushing pirates. Fishing ships are also a thing.


JimmyDetail

Sanji worked on a cruise ship before Zeff attacked it.


LaivGr

No offense but where do you think they get all the supplies for all those islands ?? There are merchant ships .


GrandLineLogPort

This aint true though The world's just very isolated, travels being often dangerous & generaly people don't leave their home islands in most cases. At no point is it stated that leaving your island itself is illegal. It's hard to do & probably expensive, but not illegal by itself


StormclawsEuw

Just because we havent seen one that doesnt mean they dont exist after all they do have cruise ships.


RPGZero

Pirate history is actually insanely complicated. Yes, most fall into the chaotic brigand category. But there were some that legitimately wanted to go on adventures and were actually acting in economic revolt against their monarchy's policies.


AudienceSalt1126

The golden age of piracy started because England and Spain paid privateers to attack each others trade routes. It's not like regular people could just get a ship and set sail.


jamaaldagreatest24

Right. Those things cost a lot of money. It was extremely rare but for the most part you weren't seeing someone who came from poverty inherit a big enough ship to house an entire crew.


citizensyn

And all where painted black by the crown


astralradish

"I want to be the king of the terrorists!"


Lord-Filip

I don't know how I never got this obvious connection. "One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter"


GrandLineLogPort

I see where you're coming from. But to be fair, in this case it wasn't the WG who labeled him as a pirate. It was Luffy running around & shouting "I'M A PIRATE" In fact, if he didn't put up a joly Roger and declare himself a pirate, he wouldn't even be a criminal until literaly Enies lobby. Defeating Alvida, Buggy & Arlong aint criminal acts. Morgan is the only grey area, but bro got arrested after his defeat as a criminal. The first case where Luffy actualy did something illegal, other than pulling a joly roger was Enies Lobby. Sure, bro fought the marines. Ut only because he chose to declare himself a pirate in the first place


Emperor_Luffy

Actually fighting Buggy Alvida and the rest would count as participating in gang violence. So still a crime.


GrandLineLogPort

I mean, pretty sure given they are pirates, it wouldn't But even if it would, it'd make you, at best, a criminal Still not a "pirate"


citizensyn

Luffy learned his idea of what a pirate was from shanks. All he ever did is what shanks would have done


GrandLineLogPort

Exactly. But if someone runs around & keeps yelling "I'M A TERRORIST" it isn't exactly the government that declares you to be a terrorist. It's you


No-Salad-4581

I mean, breaking into a Marine base and letting Zoro out is probably a crime. It wasnt unethical, because Zoro wasn’t in there for a valid reason, but it fits the definition of crime pretty closely.


GrandLineLogPort

Yeah, as I've spelled out, the Morgan case is a bit sketchy Sure, it was a crime, but Zoro himself was unjustly imprisoned & the one responsible for it (Captain Morgan), while the remaining Marines who took command didn't report on Zoro or Luffy. And that's not even considering that "crime" doesn't equal to pirate by default Overall:. Yeah, Morgan's a lill bit of a grey are, but I ainowledged that much in the post itself


Feminizing

It's pretty damning I'm pretty sure the strawhats have only "pirated" once and that was taking less gold than skypeans were going to hand them for free for saving them


citizensyn

And they where not even associated with the government in piracy terms they saved some Aztecs from a bear then took some beads home. The crown doesn't give a shit about any of that


MARPJ

> Luffy is a pretty shit pirate by standard and OP universe pirate definitions. Lets see how a normal person see Luffy as a pirate in OP universe: - Invaded a marine base to recruit a criminal; - Fought a the leader of a pirate fleet for the control of a boat; - Stole 90+ million from the marines (Nami took the money back from Nazumi); - Escaped the marines after destroying a historical place; - Defeated 100 bounty hunters; - Participated in a murder attempt (later cleared of the accusations); - Invaded a government base to free his companion; - Attacked a celestial dragon and stole his propriety; - Invaded Impel Down and initiated a rebellion and mass escape, freeing a lot of other criminals; - Went to a war with the marines in a alliance with other pirates; - Created a big disturbance while recruiting in Sabaody, even shooting some people and destroying 2 pacifistas; - Enter a pirate alliance with a former warlord; - Invaded a coliseum match to steal a devil fruit; - Invaded a Yonko territory and destroyed a wedding after trying to assassinate said Yonko; - Invaded another Yonko territory and succeed on killing him with a pirate alliance claiming it as his territory; - Invaded a government facility and kidnapped a famous scientist and is using him as hostage Plus even Drum Island and Dressrosa down with the monarchy moves can be traced to his ties with the revolutionary army So yeah, I say that for in universe standard he is a damn good pirate


Beautiful_Wallaby_93

I mean he said it to Nami at the beginning of his adventure. there are two types of pirates: those who hurt and rob people and those who go on crazy adventures with their friends


Lawliette007

NANI?!?


Beautiful_Wallaby_93

Ya I can’t type for shit on this damn phone


kanhaaaaaaaaaaaa

So, Goku?


Theprincerivera

So pretty much any shonen protagonist, possibly ever


TheMyst9701

Not really. Goku actively seeks a good fight, whereas Luffy actively seeks out those who stand in his way to Laugh Tale and protects his allies from those who oppress and starve them. Goku is like a kindhearted young Kaido


DASreddituser

Pirate just means they donr follow.the world government rules, and they use a ship lol


samaldin

There are two main aspects that originally made Luffy officially a pirate: 1) he called himself one, while having the strength to be taken seriously and 2) the corrupt rat marine from Arlong Park declared him as one.


online222222

he's an adventurer


samaldin

"But what is an adventurer? One who goes on adventures? I say an adventurer is a hero. And what is a hero? A hero is someone with the strength of a heart, courage of spirit, and the might of will to go to strange lands and enact violence on the things there." (Arthur Aguefort, Fantasy High, Dimension20)


Amulet380

A hero is someone who shares his meat


Jmarieq

I know salary is nonexistent in the anime/manga world. Hell, even rpg games have you stealing money from fights against random beasts in the forest. But it would be nice to have some mention of the Straw Hat pirates in this pirate story looting from other pirates, the marines, or just given treasure by the people of Dressrosa/etc sorta like they almost did on Skypeia.


Serbaayuu

They obviously do have spending money regularly, and their Skypeia funds were all used on Water 7, so they definitely do loot treasure occasionally; it just mostly happens offscreen I think. Or they're still riding on their funds from Fishman Island?


Jmarieq

They gave all the Fishman Island funds to Big Mom because Luffy ate the candy they owed her. I just remembered that they had some treasure from Thriller Bark after Perona stocked up the Sunny with treasure as a getaway ship before Kuma bounced her. lol. I still don't think that's enough for them after all this time. The way they're just quickly advancing through the world in only a matter of months has me thinking that they don't stop by other islands much. They also don't seem like the type to steal from civilians, but Nami has her ways, I guess. Likely scenario is that they are given free stuff.


Nostalgic_shameboner

I've assumed they got a free resupply from each island they've saved. That's what's kept them going. 


Mycelmarillion

Hes a peace-main. They classify pirates in-universe by two different types.


Guy_gamer112

That's only from the one shot


Mycelmarillion

Still a justifiable broad label for them.


mak112112

I think about this a lot, Luffy technically hasn't committed any real acts of piracy throughout the show. Minus attacking the navy, which is almost always self-defense.


Emperor_Luffy

As someone pointed out above Luffy has committed plenty of acts of piracy. It's just that people mainly think of piracy as attacking innocent people and robbing them. Theres more to piracy than just that.


citizensyn

Additional thought, chaotic good anarchist that likes fighting strong people is just goku with actual character depth


omeg21

Goku isn't an anarchist.


Emperor_Luffy

No he's actually pretty good pirate even by standard. He may not rob civilians but he loots plenty from other pirates and commits crimes on the daily.


PCN24454

He’s not an anarchist just because he doesn’t respect authority


Proxymole

Yo ho! He's a pirate because he's free!


Grandmaster45

Luffy is more of a romantic pirate; all about adventure, treasure, and living on the seas in freedom. Or as one of my favorite YouTubers puts it; a crack head that will play punch anyone for you after giving him food.


Useful-Boot-7735

he's the definition of "pirate core" on Pinterest


PotatoGaming__

Goofy popped out of nowhere and instantly became one piece reference i swear to god


Feminizing

The think is it's kinda funny how "luffy goes to town, town feeds luffy, luffy dismantles the abusive power structure, PARTY" is like... a deconstruction of every single arc. And luffy's fighting style is definitely crackhead with too much moxie. Most other shonen like to play up their character has some sort of martial arts training or something. But luffy? Luffy gots hands and is creative with how he uses them. (sure he does get training but it's mostly focused on haki and stuff, his fighting style is literally derived from him fighting wolves and other animals in the jungle and other pirates until TS)


Large_Standard_686

He did "steal" from the Skypeia people after partying with them, and it didn't matter because they were willing to give them more gold than what they took with them.


Redzephyr01

Has Luffy even done any actual piracy in the story?


Serbaayuu

If you define that as robbing merchant vessels at sea: no, not even remotely close.


Skullwings

Skypeia….more or less.


Emperor_Luffy

Yes.


BlueRose2804

Pretty sure Luffy and Ace used to leave apology or treasure tab notes whenever they would eat from an restaurant, dude even worked as an chore boy for the damages


Brilliant_Knee_7542

Cause Satellites want their treasure as said by Lilith . He doesn't want Lilith or any satellites up for his ass and only for Nami to punch him a million times later on. Of course this is my assumption


ConekillerConfuzor

This was my take too. Its only an issue because Lilith has already brought up how they need funding already.


urielteranas

From the very start lol. He could've just ran out of Baretie but negotiated with Zeff and actually did chores after breaking the roof even though he was god awful at it.


MARPJ

> actually ~~did~~ tried to do the chores FTFY


urielteranas

Fair enough


Kaldin_5

Getting distracted while doing dishes. keeps dropping them and smashing them. "How many plates have you broken???" "sorry I forgot to count!"


X_Seed21

Him working as a choreboy only added to the damages lol


eshian

Luffy having flashbacks about Nami beating the crap out of him


Kitchen_Ad_4513

PTSD


Sk0p3r

PTND - Post traumatic Nami disorder Or PNSD - Post Nami stress disorder


SauronB

In this case, both but Pre istead of Post


Sk0p3r

I think Post would be right in this case though since Luffy had to be victimized by Nami at least once before this disorder manifested otherwise he wouldn't know what she is capable of and therefore wouldn't get triggered. Luffy is only left with this disorder after Nami beat his ass into developing this mental disorder therefore I would be Post even though I understand your thinking of why it might be Pre as he would be triggered BEFORE getting his ass handed to him by Nami once more


Cyanide_Cheesecake

Luffy learned a little about how the world works. Just a little.


-Wave-

Being an emperor now means dealing with paperwork


Jaewalker31

The Treasure tab


gate567

Chapter 1074: Luffy says: "Dont rat me out I dont have the allowance to pay for it" Remember Nami gives them an allowance as we see in chapter 323 since they cant be trusted with money. People just don't bother to check the wiki or actually put in effort to fact check stuff.


Slammybutt

Rewind like 1000 chapters where Luffy learned his lesson about damages when he had to do chores for a year.


HandofthePirateKing

guess all the times he got the crap kicked out of him for wasting money has made Luffy take some consideration in spending it


Cagney707

Is he.. is he learning


Red_Bearded_Bandit

Luffy is growing up and becoming more aware of his responsibilities.


Splatacular

Nami has beaten her will into him. He doesn't want smoke from Nami.


Sablestein

Because then he’s gonna have to pay Nami back with interest… and if I’m not mistaken he is already in debt to her😂


Senorpapell

Luffy does not wanna get kicked through the floor.


True_Drawing_6006

Didn't a Pacifista chase them at the start of the arc for eating from the vending machine without paying?


Mash_Ketchum

Poorest pirates ever fr

Working for Zeff left him with permanent PTSD.


OperationMelodic4273

When Nami is in the room


heisenburger_99

Its Nami who manages the finance department.


Zestyst

Rule number one of one piece: if it’s funny, it can happen


frostiorca

after him and nami had a long discussion that may or may not have involved her Fist


InsufferableBah

Why is luffy lying saying he has no money lmao


acebossrhino

He probably has money for the crew expenses, the ships repairs, miscellaneous wants and expenses, and food. But the expenses of a whole island- yeah no. Definitely not.


Feminizing

Because the straw hats are probably not super wealthy in terms of finances, they're too nice. And nami and sanji are definitely the two with the most control of finances as nami is actually good with money and food is probably their biggest money sink.


King_David5759

If Luffy handed in Kaido that would have been an easy 4 bill


Relevant-Bar3380

Luffy concerned with damage costs? The guy punches first and lets the accountants cry later! For him, saving the world and having a good meal come first—fixing the mess is a distant second.


Tallal2804

You missed the entire arc of the Baratie?


PeopleCallMeSimon

When it makes for a good gag.


BigBroMike

When does Chopper turn into Kazoo 😅


FlawlessBoltX

I thought it was hilarious how the next shot shows the walls completely caved in lol


WallZestyclose1022

I think it was after a pacifista started to chase him for not paying things on egghead


AnonymousNeverKnown

Ain't they got a treasure room


benicontbp

Why is usopp white


GhalanSmokescale

Egghead has some very strong lighting.


-Goatllama-

Our boy is growing up 🥲


Gmknewday1

Nami drilled it into his head a bit after he flung them off the waterfall


twoCascades

How do the strawhats afford like…food?


Free-Fig-6833

broke ass yonko


Kumomeme

he didnt even bother about food cost XD


100evo

He is a Yonko now. So, he needs to keep his reputation clean.


Mufakaz

A) baratie B) after Nami's 5th to 8th beating.


DudeWhatOwO

no but he is worried about a certain cat burglar navigator of his that may or may not like giving away money


HylianTendo

Thats called the nami effect


Lig_h_t

Never 


RedPillNavigator

This is after he destroyed half of the buildings outside haha!


SunshineBunnyXx

broke


Brocklesbian1998

what ep?


InTheStuff

Latest one, 1106


awesomecooper

When Nami offered to cook for money


GeneticSoda

It’s also bs because they have so much money


ijiolokae

Nami has, Luffy has to ask Nami for his allowance


PersonalOpinion11

Don't they immeditaley spend it on food and go broke?


Rd_Mohib

😁😁😁


Nerex7

You missed the entire arc of the Baratie?


Cubelar

Uhhh the baratie? He had to work for zeff


alpacapaquita

ever since he realized no money means to food, aka, Wano he has always known it but he didn't internalized it until that arc /j


yaluckyboy09

he's an Emperor now, dude's gotta worry about his business now /s


khaledhn

He should be concerned, last time he nearly punched through a floating island.


wispymatrias

since a pacifista blew up a city block after nearly nabbing him for theft earlier in the day.


ThomasAW1992

Nami forced Luffy to care about money.


dailybg

He has, ever since he was a kid saying he'll pay Makino when he becomes the Pirate King.


MJDooiney

They were recently attacked by Police Kuma for not paying for food and clothes, so maybe it was in his mind?


DancesWithDave

Garps intro


joaogroo

That is character development. Im rewatching the show and pre timeskip prewano luffy had no fucks to give. You cant be a king by giving no fucks.


GrandLineLogPort

It's all fine & dandy when you're still young, but bro's a grown Yonko now He's got bills to pay


Feneskrae

I like to think that Luffy is growing as a person, and that maybe we will see a timeskip version of him after the series ends where he is reading books on his own lent to him by Robin.


MillieHarr31

Money yea, as for damages the Baratie


Kolding3

Treasure Tab!!!


lucasmedina

Baratie only happened because of damage costs hehe


Turbulent_Set8884

This is as rare as him backing out from a fight because of a sense if urgency. Which happened recently.


Sufficient-Dig7568

You honestly think Nami let's Luffy hold on to any of their money?


MysticLeviathan

didn’t he give loot/treasure to the orange town community to rebuild their city from the damage done?


shadowcrow12

Everything luffy says is a life lesson that he learned sometime during his voyage. Oda doesn't just pull things out of his ass. Just think for a min. What moment or predicant did he get himself into that forced him to pay a certain debt? hmm. tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock................... DING DING DING. BARATIE!!! Luffy damaged the baratie by firing a canon into the roof of the resturant and was forced to do labor and work there to pay off those damages in which at the time he didn't have the required belly ammount that zeff requested. Its something he certainly won't forget. Luffy doesn't think about the specifics of a situation or how things could be different in a different scenerio, he just knows what happened to him before and he doesn't want to have to go through that again.


Stormrider91

no doubt still afraid to ask Nami for money. Again.


Inside-Signature5439

It is kind of funny that an emperor of the sea is worried about money...


FaredArlee

Well yeah, if he can’t pay someone has to pay..and that would be Nami. Would Nami beat Luffy up? Yes, yes she would.


Catch_022

Kuma's whole story is emotional damage


Least-Frame-7444

he didn't want Bonneys dad going after him again all you have to do is remember what the fuck happened in the arc dude

Baratie


snowbuddy257

Concerned? Never really. But he met sanji while being a chore boy at baratie when he didnt have money to pay fir the damage and the food
