      such a mysterious fellow haha.

      who would have thought that at the end of the loguetown arc he that shadowy character would have turned out to be luffys dad like 300 episodes later….

      post your speculations on him here

      from his halfassed introduction in LT i always thought it was he who had the wind fruit.and when i saw luffy use a "storm" move i knew they had some tie. im also curious to see what the mark on his face means...could it have something to do with the will of D. and how much does he know? who are the revolutionaries and what separates them from pirates? whats with all these damn animal themes?...so much to learn.

        Robin explained what the revolutionaries do when it was revealed he was Monkey D. Dragon: They attack the government directly. Pirates don't. It's that simple.

        The marking on his face is probably just decorative, but it might mean something… we know very little about Dragon so far, so we'll just have to wait and see.

        As for the animal theme, Dragon is based on Sir Francis Drake, who was called El Dragon in Spain. He was the early Renassiance's most notorious Privateer; the Spanish put a price of 20,000 ducats on his head, which equates to about 10,000,000 Euros in today's money. Back then, cities would be ransomed for that much.

        I called it wrong, so long ago. I guess this needs to be changed.

          Well, I for starters thought Dragon was Luffy's father the second we saw him actually. And I'm sure I am not the only one.

          Damn, that bounty in yen is 1,623,678,436.28.
          Do anyone remeber how much Oda said one beri was? 100yen?

            LOL. yeah it sure seems like 1 berri = 1 yen. I think his estimate of the value of money would most likely come from his own daily experience, just to simplify things. He did write one piece for a mainly japanese audience anyway.

              I can't wait to find out more about him, but I hope Oda handles this well. I'm gonna be seriously disappointed if his big plan's to make anarchy the solution to all of the OP world's problems.

                Heh, I remember all the Dragon topics that used to pop up before we knew he was Luffy's father and all the ridiculous speculations about him it it, like he's Gold Roger.

                I hope Dragon and Luffy cross paths shortly after the Straw Hats reach the New World.

                    yay, maybe he won Gaara for his plans. 😄

                    Stephens Corner?…really?....mangareader.net is the better solution !!!

                    But whatever...who cares about it anyway??

                        Its funny how every few weeks a Dragon topic appears, but no one has anything new to say about him since we have chewed the little info we have about him over and over again until it all looked like Usopp after a fight…..

                        To stay on topic, I hope Dragon will go freaking monsoon power on the WG....................
