I just started reading the _One Piece_ manga and am currently on the 5th and I
was wondering who Luffy's first mate is.

Zoro joined first, but Usopp was given permission to take over as captain when
Luffy couldn't, which is something only the first mate can do.

Who is Luffy's first mate?

Well Mugiwara no ichimi has no first mate but according to One Piece Yellow:
Grand Elements, Roronoa Zoro is referred to as being "like the vice captain".
Bartolomeo has also referred to Zoro as the first mate of the Straw Hat
Pirates, although, by his own admission, that was just an assumption based on
his personal views of the crew.

I feel that Zoro would be first mate because usually the first mate is the
closest in power to the captain, in this case, that would be Zoro.
