The Mystery of Kuma’s Identity Regarding Luffy in One Piece

The suspicion surrounding Kuma regarding Luffy’s true identity grows stronger, especially as tensions mount at Sabaody Archipelago, where Luffy confronts a Celestial Dragon. This situation sheds light on Kuma’s actions at Sabaody as he protects Luffy and his crew members, including the Thousand Sunny ship. Kuma believes that Luffy is indeed Nika, which drives his decisions and actions thereafter.

This chapter also emphasizes that Kuma knows Luffy is the son of Monkey D. Dragon, hinting that there are deeper reasons behind Kuma’s protective instincts towards Luffy. While his relationship with Dragon and the Revolutionary Army may have influenced his actions, many believe that Luffy’s resemblance to Nika is the primary reason for his decisions.

Exploring Kuma’s role in the story reveals new mysteries, particularly regarding the figure of Nika. The connection between the pirate Buccaneer and Nika is especially intriguing. With the recent revelations about Kuma’s links to Luffy and Nika, he is emerging as a central character in the Egghead arc and throughout the entire One Piece saga.
