Who Is Luffy's Right Hand Man. Luffy Zoro and Nami. Garp simply does not believe the life of an old man could ever atone for the actions of his family.
They are the captains right-hand man and if the captain is not at hand on the ship or is otherwise incapacitated the first mate is the next in line to take over the captains job A big example when zoro did this was when the pacifistaOr kuma Is about to capture luffy everyone is asleep besides zoro. Sanji and zoro are and will always be luffys left and right hands. Hand-to-hand combat at close-to-mid range recently advanced Armament Haki including Ryou Haki which attacks from the inside-out which also adds fire Red Hawk and electricity Thor Elephant Gun and Observation Haki advanced future sight observation haki included.
The rest of them are either right hand men chiefs of staff authorities sharing their hierarchy place or just fighters.
Zoro is the combatant and Luffys right wing not the first mate. First Zoro is referred to as first mate by other pirates specifically Urouge and Bartolomeo. Even you already admited Zoro is luffys right hand man LOL. Luffy made his debut in One Piece Chapter 1 as a young boy who acquires the properties of rubber after accidentally eating the supernatural Gum-Gum Fruit one of the so-called Devil Fruits.
