Nami blushed when Luffy got kissed by Reiju because it was an intimate, unexpected act (mouth-to-mouth) performed on her nakama, triggering feelings of possessiveness, slight jealousy, and surprise at the closeness, revealing a deeper affection for Luffy beyond friendship, especially as he was unconscious and vulnerable, and she felt protective, notes a Reddit thread on One Piece and fanfiction.net. While Nami often gets flustered by Luffy's oblivious actions, this instance highlighted her romantic feelings, contrasting with her usual frustration and showing bashfulness from such a personal moment happening to him.
When Luffy and Uta meet again, Uta is happy and she goes and hugs Luffy. Then we get a scene of seeing Nami, not in the background, but very clearly showing some form of jealousy. She has a glare when Uta hugged Luffy and when Uta tells Luffy to quit being a pirate, Nami is the first to argue against it.

"Nami hugged Luffy emotionally." Nami's most iconic moment hugging Luffy happened after **Luffy defeated Arlong** at Arlong Park. She cried and hugged him as a sign of gratitude for freeing her.
Reiju then presses her mouth to Luffy's and sucks all the poison out of him, curing him.
The "D." in One Piece (like in Monkey D. Luffy) is a mysterious inherited initial for a secret lineage, the "Clan of D.," who are considered "Natural Enemies of God" (the Celestial Dragons) and destined to cause significant world changes, often associated with bringing smiles, freedom, and pursuing dreams, though its exact word meaning remains unknown and heavily theorized as Dawn, Dream, Democracy, or Devil.
One of the most significant moments is during the Impel Down arc, when he's poisoned and on the brink of death. To save him, Ivankov uses a hormone-based treatment that stimulates his body's healing processes, but it's stated that it shortens his lifespan by about 10 years.
After reciting his vows, Absalom attempted to seal the marriage by kissing Nami. However, Absalom repeatedly missed Nami's head and, upon angrily demanding to know what was going on, was shocked to learn that Oars had steered the ship into a strange current by moving the rudder.
Luffy is just a kid, he a boy not asexual.
While opinions vary, Portgas D. Ace's death is widely considered the saddest in One Piece, primarily because he died protecting his brother Luffy, fulfilling his desire to be loved, but at the cost of his own life during the Marineford War, devastating Luffy and fans alike. Other frequently mentioned heartbreaking deaths include Belle-mère (sacrificing herself for Nami and Nojiko), Donquixote Rocinante (Corazon, for Law), Whitebeard (a legendary figure falling), and Pedro (a selfless sacrifice).
None of the women have kissed Luffy, but the first to lock lips with him is Reiju when she gave him mouth-to-mouth. In the anime, Marguerite bathed an unconscious Luffy whilst still clothed, in the manga she is naked herself. Rebecca notably allowed Luffy to sleep on her lap after his victory over Doflamingo.
One Piece Episode 666, titled "The End of the Match?! A Surprising Result of Block D" (or similar variations), focuses on the dramatic conclusion of the Dressrosa Colosseum's Block D tournament, revealing Rebecca as the unexpected winner after Cavendish's demonic alter ego, Hakuba, swiftly defeats all other contestants while Cavendish sleeps, and introduces Viola helping Luffy's group infiltrate the palace.
Nami has a crush on Luffy, though he is unaware of it and treats her platonically.
For example, women like Nami, Robin, and Boa Hancock show interest in him, even though Luffy is usually unaware of it. In the case of Boa Hancock, for instance, she is deeply in love with Luffy, but Luffy sees her just as a good friend.
Highest: Jimbe. Ever since this character has brought into OP world there was no 1 moment when he didn't respected luffy. Lowest: Usopp.
sanji and nami hugged each other a lot. Not really hugging (this was the first time since the Baratie), but they've had quite a bit of physical contact this arc. It's definitely an increase. And also much more focused on compared to some earlier moments of physical contact.
Much like the real world, One Piece's prison disproportionately imprisons queer characters, including Ivankov, Bon Clay, and the trans inhabitants of Secret Level 5.5.
When Luffy first used his Gear 5 form, it was against Kaidou of the Beasts Pirates. His hair and clothes turned white while his eyes took on a red glow. In Gear 5, his strength, speed, and durability are all enhanced to nearly limitless levels, but that is only the start of the changes this form brings about.
In the live-action adaptation, he is referred to by Nami as Luffy's first mate. After waking up after his defeat by Mihawk, Zoro makes a promise to Luffy that he will always stand by Luffy's side as he is his captain and he himself is his first mate.
In Thriller Bark, Nami is kidnapped by the zombie Absalom, who tries to force her to marry him. The crew's cook Sanji tries to rescue her, but Absalom incapacitates him and attempts to complete the wedding.
The Suke Suke no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that gives its user the ability to turn themselves and whatever they touch (living or nonliving) invisible, making them a Clear Human (透明人間, Tōmei Ningen?, English: "Invisible Man"). It was initially eaten by Absalom, and after his death, it was transferred to Shiryu.
Instead of living to 80, he'll live to 70. And Gear 2 could kill him if he overused it (we see it affect him in Enies Lobby and Thriller Bark.) However, since the time skip, Luffy has had no problems using Gear 2 whenever he wants without any consequences. Seems like his body adjusted to his fast heart rate.
However, his true dream, revealed in Episode 1088, is something much bigger, which he wants to accomplish after becoming Pirate King. Fans speculate his ultimate dream could involve, throwing a worldwide feast where everyone—pirates, marines, civilians, minks, and more—comes together.
While it was the first time many strong characters in the One Piece world saw Luffy use Haki, he had technically used it unknowingly twice before the Marineford arc: Against the bull Motobaro in Episode 389. Against the Boa Sisters at Amazon Lily in Episode 413.
