Since the very beginning, I've been following 'One Piece' step by step. The stories go on and with each new episode or chapter, it seems as if one question is answered another hundred rise up to take its place. After all these years, one mystery remains unsolved: who is the mother of Luffy? Why should a pirate's identity be any better than that of a marine, or pure goodness like Nami's? Her father is a pirate, so maybe she could follow in his footsteps, right? To date, the creator has refused on this topic to give any specific details. All fans have are speculations and theories into which they can read whatever they will.--Is she a pirate, a marine, or something else altogether? Woven together with intricate plotting and characters, 'One Piece' keeps us eagerly looking forward to the next adventure. And if we've learned anything from history it's that waiting will be more than worthwhile!
