Luffy befriends Shanks

Luffy befriends Shanks, intending to become a crew member. After Luffy inadvertently eats the Gum-Gum Fruit, he trains to improve himself. During his early adlthood, he leaves his hometown to search for the "One Piece" and to form a pirate crew of his own, called the "Straw Hat Pirates". In the beginning of the series, Luffy meets a swordsman named Roronoa Zoro, the navigator and thief Nami, the cowardly marksman and inventor Usopp, and the first-class chef Sanji. He also encounters and defeats pirates in the East Blue, such as Buggy the Clown, Captain Kuro, Commodore Don Krieg, and Arlong. These actions cause him to be placed on the Marines' most wanted list with a bounty of 30 million in the fictional currency named berries. After entering the Grand Line, Luffy accepts an offer to return the princess of Alabasta, Nefertari Vivi, safely into her homeland to stop a rebellion, incited by a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Sir Crocodile. Along the way, Luffy defeats the ruthless king Wapol while in Drum Island and finds a reindeer doctor named Tony Tony Chopper. In Alabasta, Luffy defeats Crocodile and the civil war ends, causing the World Government to raise Luffy's bounty to 100 million berries. Following his epic battle with Crocodile, Luffy allows Crocodile's former second-in-command and archaeologist Nico Robin to join his crew.
