4 One Piece Characters Luffy Forgave (And 4 He Never Will)

While Luffy may seem like the indulgent type in One piecesome characters have gone too far even for him.

The Straw Hat has a tendency to absolve former enemies of their crimes, as long as they make amends. He has done it repeatedly throughout One piece. However, his forgiveness can only be extended to a certain point. Most of the villains in the series are simply too cruel to be forgiven.

Be it a fleet admiral or the strongest creature in the world, Luffy will never forgive them for their actions.

Note: This article reflects the personal views of the author.


The One Piece characters that Luffy made ended up forgiving

4) Nefertari Vivi

When Nefertari Vivi was first introduced in the Reverse Mountain arc, she was an undercover agent for Baroque Works. She tried to kill Laboon for her whale meat, but was eventually stopped by Luffy.

During the Whiskey Peak arc, it was revealed that she was the princess of Alabasta. The Straw Hats ended up saving her from the Baroque Work agents who were sent to eliminate her.

After a pretty rocky start, Luffy and Vivi ended up getting along. That said, he showed her some tough love when he forced her to admit that she needed help against Crocodile.

After the Desert King’s defeat, Luffy was very disappointed when Vivi was left behind.


3) Hat-chan

Hatchan was a former member of the Arlong Pirates, who gave Nami a very difficult childhood. Despite being arrested, the octopus fish managed to escape. However, he was later captured by the Flying Fish Raiders.

After the Straw Hat Pirates accidentally rescued Hatchan, Luffy could barely stand the fishman. However, the two would soon become friends during the Sabaody Archipelago Saga.

When Hatchan was shot by a World Noble, Luffy didn’t hesitate to punch the latter in the face. Despite the consequences of his actions, the Straw Hat always protects his friends. This is a defining aspect of One piece Serie.


2) Usopp

Along with the Going Merry ship, Usopp made his One piece debut in the Syrup Village arc. He is one of the first characters to join the Straw Hats.

Unfortunately, the Going Merry ship was beginning to break down due to the events of Skypiea.

During the Water 7 arc, Luffy and Usopp discussed the status of Going Merry. The ship was damaged beyond repair, but Usopp did not want to get rid of it. With emotions running high, Luffy ended up fighting his friend.

Usopp would not be able to rejoin the crew until after the Enies Lobby arc. After a tearful apology for everything he did, he was immediately accepted into the crew.


1) Bellamy

Bellamy was really mean to Luffy during Jaya’s arc. He mocked Luffy for having dreams and even punched him, despite the Straw Hat not fighting back.

Towards the end of the arc, Luffy finally took out Bellamy with a single punch. It’s hard to believe that they would ever get along.

After the One Piece timeskip, Luffy and Bellamy met again in Dressrosa. By now, Bellamy had earned Luffy’s respect and vowed never to laugh at him again. In return, the Straw Hat saved his life from Doflamingo.

Bellamy even kept a vivre card to control Luffy.


One Piece Characters Luffy Will Not Spare Under Any Circumstances

4) Donquixote Doflamingo

There is a darkness below Donquixote Doflamingo. The colorful One piece The villain not only enslaved the citizens of Dressrosa, but also turned most of them into toys. Luffy was completely infuriated by Heavenly Yaksha’s actions.

Doflamingo even got hold of the Mera Mera no Mi, a devil fruit that once belonged to Ace. Luffy had to enter a tournament to get it back.

Luffy finally defeated Doflamingo after he activated Gear Fourth, his strongest form in One piece. The Straw Hat also kept his promise to Rebecca to save her kingdom from the mad tyrant.


3) Kaido

Kaido is an absolute monster, even for One piece standards. He turned Wano Country into a desolate wasteland. Many citizens were forced to work as slaves, while others ended up starving.

When Luffy arrived and befriended a girl named Tama, he was touched by her generosity. When she found out that Kaido had attacked her, Luffy immediately went to fight him.

This was not the first time that Kaido angered Luffy, as he sent Jack to destroy the Mink Tribe on Zou. The Straw Hat would never side with such a cruel dictator.

Kaido is beyond redemption right now in One piece. For that reason, Luffy refused to join the Beasts Pirates when he was imprisoned in Udon.


2) Marshall D. Teach

Marshall D. Teach, also known as Blackbeard, is arguably the Straw Hat’s greatest rival. Both pirate captains want to get hold of the One Piece treasure. However, that’s not why Luffy can’t tolerate Blackbeard’s presence.

Just before the One piece time skip, Blackbeard managed to capture Ace and send him to the Marine forces. Luffy’s sworn brother would later be executed at Marineford, despite Luffy’s efforts to save him.

What Blackbeard did cannot be forgiven, even if he played an indirect role. Luffy cared deeply for Ace, but Blackbeard sent the latter to his doom.


1) Sakazuki

Formerly known by his alias Admiral Akainu, Sakazuki is a vicious man with a deep hatred of pirates. During the Marineford arc, he successfully killed Ace when the latter attempted to protect his sworn brother from Luffy. Sakazuki also gave the Straw Hat a permanent scar afterward.

Luffy has no reason to forgive Sakazuki for what he did. No tragic background will be enough to justify his actions. One piece fans can expect these two to have an epic encounter in the future.

It will be a very emotional battle when they finally meet.
