Is Ace really Luffy's brother?

[Pevee]

that sounds so lame

lol, that was ....er.... to the point i guess.
to me, the theory seems very unlikely, why would dragon give it to luffy instead of the all-powerful ace??

 

[mugen]

true i mean both should have the name
and really we've never heard Garp call ace grandson so it's unknown

 

[Raseru]

Maybe he changed it because he thought it sounded cool and it suited his devil fruit ability. Eh, I voted yes because my gut told me to...

 

[mugen]

we'll know when we see a D. family reunion
which will never happen by the way

 

[jeffhmwong]

Y not?

I think a reunion is possible, not in a good way

however,

I guess they will meet up in battle..

 

[Efreet]

a reunion in the form of a battle is nice

 

[Seiken]

Remember folks, that when Garp meet up with Luffy he said that he left him AND Ace behind at a friend of Garp so he could train them.

If Luffy and Ace grew up together, it would seem like they are indeed brothers.

i agree with you

 

[mugen]

but why different names?

 

[Absolutio]

Maybe they have different fathers?

 

[check0r]

i dont think he is his brother but it can be that he was found from Luffy's father monkey d. Dragon.
who knows i think we will know it someday.

so you're saying that Ace was adopted meaning no, he's not really Luffy's brother

 

[Efreet]

my guess is half-brothers..same mother different father.. Ace's father died killed by Dragon and so was his wife for not being faithful then Dragon hands them over to old Garp who gives them to Whoop Slap(just a guess)

 

[jeffhmwong]

Efreet ....this is manga la...u think Soap Opera meh....

Errmmm....maybe u could be right also.....OP is full of suprises...

 

[NinjAngel]

I think they are actual brothers.

Ace is 3 years older than Luffy, isn't he? He could have known about the issue with Dragon if he was of on Revolutionary activities and the like when Ace was younger, and before Luffy was born. Ace didn't want to get tangled up in the mess, so he changed his name. He also never told Luffy about their father, because by then, Dragon was only known by that--Just "Dragon"--so there was no need to change his name.

If that makes any sense...well...whatever. XD That's just what I think, anyway.

 

[mugen]

yeah but that would not make sense
I mean Ace is a pirate not a marine meaning no need to be ashamed of his name...

 

[sushi]

he is luffy's brother completely..................said it himself the name does not matter since he change it for any reason like not wanting people take him as dragon's son

 

[NinjAngel]

Well, I thought he would have changed his name, anyway. If he was somehow connected to Dragon, then wouldn't the Marines want him all the more?

Well, whatever. Ace + Luffy = Brothers. XD

yeah but what could be the reason for Ace changing his name that would be so great
I mean ...
wait a minute if Ace did change his name how come Luffy didn't say anything about his name when they saw each other last time so that is in fact his name, meaning that they maybe are not brothers or that Portgas might be their mother's name or they might just not be realted.....by blood......

 

[NinjAngel]

Gragh!

I am, officially, confused.

For now, there are just so many holes in whatever theory we come up with. I'm content to just say they are brothers, and wait for Oda to tell us the difference. XD
