Most fans of A piece Believe Luffydreams of becoming the Pirate King, but it’s not true, and Movie One Piece: RED confirm it. While Luffy’s immediate goal is to find the One Piece treasure and be recognized as the new Pirate King, the manga recently revealed that this is just a vehicle for something else that remains secret, but One Piece Film : RED just revealed a huge hint about what Luffy’s real dream is
Right from the very first chapter of One Piece, Luffy announced his intention to become the Pirate King, a title that belongs to only one person, Gol D. Roger. To that end, Luffy must explore the Grand Line, collect Road Poneglyphs, and find Laugh Tale’s last hidden island, which holds Roger’s legendary treasure, One Piece. Luffy does not care about the fame or power that comes with the title of Pirate King, but cares about the freedom it brings: “the most free person is the Pirate King”. However, in chapter #1060 of One Piece, Eiichiro Oda shocked his readers by revealing that becoming the Pirate King was not Luffy’s real dream. His real goal remains a secret he only shares with Shanks, Sabo, Ace, and his Straw Hat friends, but it’s something so ridiculous that it’s hilarious and difficult believe.
One Piece Film: RED suggests Luffy’s dream is to create a new era
One Piece Film: RED, the most recent wildly successful film in the series, may have revealed a big clue about Luffy’s dream, or at least it could point fans in the right direction. In the film, Luffy comes into conflict with his childhood friend Uta, the adopted daughter of Shanks, who grew up hating pirates due to a terrible incident in the past. Uta doesn’t understand why Luffy would rather be a pirate like her father Shanks than live happily and peacefully with her, and asks him what is so important about his dreams. he can’t give it up. Luffy’s answer, though brief, is that he wants to “create a new era”, similar to what Uta wants to achieve, in a different way, with her Devil Fruit powers.
While this may not seem like much to go on, it is actually a really important clue. Because Luffy’s secret dream causes hilarity to most people who hear about it, it can be something as completely outrageous as “sharing a meal with everyone in the world”. Instead, wanting to “create a new era” means that Luffy’s goal is to bring real, solid change to the world and its structures. Maybe Luffy wants to abolish the tyrannical World Government so everyone can feel as free as he is. Political change doesn’t seem to be what Captain Straw Hats have in mind, but Luffy has proven to be much smarter than most people appreciate, so this option cannot be ruled out.
One Piece Film: RED Revealing Luffy’s Dream Is Bigger Than Anyone Ever Thought
Freedom, and the title of Pirate King, then, is not Luffy’s ultimate goal but something he needs to achieve in order to achieve his true goal. Whatever Luffyreal dreams will become, Movie One Piece: RED suggests that it will not be something ridiculous or inconsistent but a real, massive change of the status quo that will usher in a new era for the world.
