Portgas D. Ace and Monkey D. Luffy grew up together as children, but as the older of the pair, Ace ventured out to make his name as a pirate years before Luffy sets sail.

Ace ended up dying in this war after he sacrificed his life to protect his little brother, Luffy. And eventually, this marked the death of one of the most beloved characters in One Piece.

Monkey D. Luffy has been fighting against Kaido for quite some time in one of the biggest one-on-one fights of the series to date, though Luffy is about to receive quite the ace up his sleeve.

Portgas D. Ace is still one of the most beloved characters in the show and fire is his specialty. The Fish-Man Island Arc follows Luffy’s first journey after the tragic death of his brother.
