Luffy (Iñaki Godoy), a young adventurer who sets sail to find Gold Roger’s (Michael Dorman) missing treasure, the One Piece. If Monkey finds the legendary treasure, he will become “The King of the Pirates.” Monkey needs help achieving this dream, so he forms a crew known as the Straw Hats. Monkey’s gang includes Mackenyu as Roronoa Zoro, Emily Rudd as Nami, Jacob Romero as Usopp, and Taz Skylar as Sanji.
