Has Luffy ever killed anyone?


In _One Piece_ , there is a lot of blood and fights as we saw on the death of

> Ace.

However, did Luffy ever actually kill any person?




No, he never killed anyone. The reason why he never kills anyone is that he is
leaving them another chance to achieve their dreams. This was also stated by
Oda in [SBS vol. 4](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/SBS_Volume_4):

> D: How come Luffy never kills his enemies? Throughout "One Piece" manga so

> O: Hmm! That's a very good question. First, I have to announce that Morgan

> them a 2nd chance to fight for their dreams.
