Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to "Yes" if, by December 31, 2025, Monkey D. Luffy engages in a direct physical confrontation with his father, Monkey D. Dragon, in the "One Piece" manga or anime. The confrontation must involve combat between the two characters. If no such event occurs by the specified date, the market will resolve to "No". Official releases of the "One Piece" manga and anime will serve as the primary sources for resolution.

Background

Monkey D. Dragon is the leader of the Revolutionary Army and is known as the "World's Worst Criminal" due to his opposition to the World Government. He is also the father of Monkey D. Luffy, the protagonist of "One Piece" and captain of the Straw Hat Pirates. Despite their familial ties, Luffy and Dragon have had minimal direct interaction throughout the series.

Considerations

As of July 2025, there has been no depiction of a physical confrontation between Luffy and Dragon in the "One Piece" manga or anime. The series is progressing towards its final saga, and while future plot developments are uncertain, no official sources have indicated an impending battle between the two characters.
