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?

question
one-piece
Has Luffy ever killed anyone?


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):

Luffy kills the primary antagonist in the film _One Piece: Baron Omatsuri and
the Secret Island_ which is _One Piece Movie 6_. This film, however, is one of
the several non-canon films such as the more recent _Heart of Gold_ and
_Gold_. It is very dark and surreal for _One Piece_. That is even if you
ignore the good guy who looks like Hitler.

An interesting comment on Reddit mentions that he is actually the one who
finally "kills" the Going Merry. That is a little different than what you mean
because the Going Merry itself is not really alive (though it has a spirit)
and it is already dying.

He could have accidentally killed someone when hitting and pushing large
numbers of people. Although it is more likely with Zoro who makes slashing
wounds, whereas Luffy's attacks leave bruises.

Luffy has never killed anyone according to me, but if he killed the primary
antagonist in movie six, maybe he did. Oda did state he doesn't kill anyone
though, so maybe he knocked him out. So there's a strong chance he didn't kill
that guy from movie six.

I normally see him knock his enemies out though, but it's true that Rob Lucci
needed surgery after their fight in volume 44.

Not really.

However,

When thinking logically about that question I concluded, that even if he
doesn't intend to kill, there is no way he can avoid it. Just think about how
fast he moves and how much of an impact his attacks do have. It is hard to
believe that none of the numerous low-level enemies has ever suffered fatal
injuries by that brute forces. Think of all the ships, walls and other hard
stuff he is able to shatter with his bare hands. Not to mention countless
enemies that are pushed from great heights - or off a ship. If you go
overboard at high sea, you will most likely die after a few hours, even if
you're not a Devil Fruit user.

So even if you take into account that - like in most anime - people tend to be
a lot tougher than in reality and the "physical laws" of Luffy's world may be
more generous towards the inhabitants, the answer has to be: Yes! Albeit it
may not have been his intention, Luffy most certainly has killed a lot of
people. Most of them are Marines, I assume. Just because he uses blunt force
and no weapons, he is no less deadly. A car is blunt too. But if it hits you
at 50mph...

I'm a little late to this post but, He killed multiple guards at impel down
when he threw them into the pool of blood on Level 4, and he has also killed
some marines as well. When he used Giant Pistol, and when the bullets bounced
off of him and hit the marines.

In One Piece film: Z, Luffy orders Franky to fire the cannon on front of the
Sunny. This attack hits many ships of the new marines, destroying all of them.
Before the screen flashes and the ships are shown disintegrating, the faces of
many new marines are shown. While LUFFY didn't kill these men, his actions
clearly influenced their deaths.
