In around chapter 592-596 of _One Piece_ , Buggy the Clown mentioned that
Silver Rayleigh is Luffy's uncle. This implies that Rayleigh's sister should
be Dragon's wife.

Who is Monkey D Dragon's wife/Luffy's mother?

Who is Monkey D Dragon's wife/Luffy's mother?


No mention has yet been made of Luffy's mother at all, the idea of her hasn't
even been brought up. Very few characters have been mentioned to have mothers
at all for some reason.

In Japanese as in many Asian countries, they use the idea of "Uncle" or "Big
brother" differently to in English speaking countries. It just means an older
person you respect, and doesn't imply a blood relation at all. By far most
likely what happened is Buggy called Rayleigh "Uncle Rayleigh" as Rayleigh
used to be his first mate when he was a cabin boy.

So in summary, there is nothing said about Luffy's mother, nor any hints
given, and it's incredibly unlikely that Buggy was saying that Rayleigh is
Luffy's uncle, which doesn't happen in the manga anyway.
