* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: The universal immunity that Luffy acquired from Magellan remains with him when he returns to the past. Thus far, it’s saved him from Krieg’s [=MH5=] and Crocodile’s scorpion venom.
* AerithAndBob:
** The name of the old man who gave Luffy his second chance? Phil.
** Rather simple names are also given to a few members of Baroque Works. As opposed to the canon names like Daz Bones, Bentham, and Galdino (Misters 1, 2, & 3, respectively), Mr. 5’s name is [[spoiler:Greg]], Miss Valentine’s name is [[spoiler:Valerie]], and Miss Goldenweek’s name is [[spoiler:Grace]]. Then again, Miss Doublefinger’s real name is Paula in canon, so it’s not that farfetched.
* BerserkButton:
** Luffy obviously has the canon ones of his hat and his friends. He also, however, has an almost uncontrollable hatred towards Blackbeard and Akainu. He doesn’t think highly of Wapol and his disgraceful ways as a pirate either.
** DO NOT so much as ''remind'' Alvida of what she used to be, let alone insult her about it.
** Usopp retains his canon one as well: the one thing that can snap him out of a hopeless, ScrewThisImOuttaHere stupor in the face of extremely powerful enemies is mocking Luffy. Mr. 4 and Miss Merry Christmas discover this the hard way, and it also reaffirms Chopper, Valerie, and Greg.
* BigWhat: Igaram has this reaction when he learns of Vivi’s decision to go with the Straw Hats.
* ChekhovsGun: According to Phil, Luffy personally beat up two of his bosses, and although they never met personally, he saw him when he handed the latter his head. No indication has yet been given who these bosses are.
* CurbStompBattle: Frequent, and not just with Luffy.
** In Whiskey Peak, Gin, Zoro, Alvida, and Nojiko thrash the bounty hunters this way.
** In Jaya, when Bellamy’s crew comes to rob Cricket, every single fighter is taken down in this way by a different Straw Hat.
* DarkAndTroubledPast:
** [[TimeTravelTenseTrouble Or future]], depending on how you look at it, for Luffy.
** Valerie, a.k.a. [[spoiler:Miss Valentine of Baroque Works]] gets one of these in character elaboration.
*** As does Grace, a.k.a. [[spoiler:Miss Goldenweek]], though hers is much more tragic rather than dark.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Luffy gets Nami to defrost a lot faster in this fic, due to making her see early on that not all pirates are evil, and that he knew what it was like to lose someone he loved. Doesn’t stop her from stealing the Merry when it comes to that, but she doesn’t bother to put up a JerkassFacade when Luffy and crew come to the island.
* FingerPokeOfDoom: Of all the Six Powers, ''Shigan'' (Finger Pistol) is the only one that Luffy hasn’t used in actual combat; it’s implied that he doesn’t particularly like that particular technique.
* FinishingEachOthersSentences:
** Johnny and Yosaku, near perpetually.
** Zoro and Nami have a very brief instance of this when they meet Miss All Sunday for the first time.
* FlashStep: Luffy can use the ''Soru'' (Shave) technique in this fic, without having to resort to Gear Second.
* GroinAttack:
** Luffy gives Helmeppo a creative one of these in Chapter 4, shooting a perfect stone cylinder out of the wall to strike him between the legs…''very'' hard.
** As in canon, Luffy gives Buggy one of these during his fight when he tries to go after Nami.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: The Open-Open Fruit is this. Zoro lampshades how feeble the power seems from the name when Luffy tells him about the fruit, but when he explains that it can open ''anything'' you can think of, including portals in time, which affords one the capability of [[BackFromTheDead undoing death]] or [[UnPerson preventing birth]], Zoro retracts that opinion very quickly.
* HeelFaceTurn: Luffy recruits many more crewmates this time, about half of which were previously enemies: Gin, Alvida, Valerie ([[spoiler:Miss Valentine]]), Grace ([[spoiler:Miss Goldenweek]]), and Greg ([[spoiler:Mr. 5]]), though he makes it clear from the start of his alliance with Luffy that he’s only joining them until Baroque Works is defeated. True to his word, he leaves after the war…though it’s with reluctance with how much the crew has grown on him.
* HellholePrison: Impel Down is, of course, this; it’s perhaps the worst prison in fiction. But it bears repeating, considering the fact that it’s enough to give Luffy PTSD whenever he mentions it.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: As in [[strike:canon]] the original movie, bounty hunter Shuraiya Bascùd doesn’t have a default weapon; he uses anything he can get his hands on, from chairs to shovels.
* JawDrop: Frequent, of course, even if you don’t count the ones borrowed from canon.
** When Luffy performs the aforementioned Groin Attack, Coby has one of these, but Zoro is too busy laughing his ass off to do the same.
** When Luffy makes a deal with Morgan to give him a boat and let him leave the island if he wins…and then stands still and does nothing, everyone apart from Morgan does this. Then they have another one when he hits Luffy with his axe, and the axe shatters.
** Zoro, Nami, and Buggy’s crew all have this response when Luffy survives a direct, point-blank hit with the Buggy Ball without a scratch.
** Johnny and Yosaku have this reaction when Luffy catches the cannonball that Fullbody shoots at them.
** The Krieg pirates and Baratie chefs do this when Gin begins his TheReasonYouSuckSpeech about the crew.
** Everyone present has this reaction when Luffy swallows the MH5 bomb and blows the gas back at Krieg, remaining perfectly unharmed thanks to his immunity.
* {{Lemon}}: As stated by the author, this is not a fic centered on lemons. But with Luffy’s eyes opened to women, this has happened a few times thus far:
** [[spoiler:Nami]] does it during the post-Arlong party. She intended to leave it at a kiss, but her passion grew too much after said kiss.
** [[spoiler:Nojiko]] does it during the party after leaving Drum Island. Same story as above.
** [[spoiler:Alvida]] does it during their night in Yuba.
** [[spoiler:Paula (Miss Doublefinger)]] does it after the Alabasta war is over.
** [[spoiler:Vivi]] does it on the first (filler) island after leaving Alabasta. Not even remotely intended, but one mishap leads to another leads to another leads to…well, this.
** [[spoiler:Nami]] does it again on the (filler) fireworks island.
** [[spoiler:Valerie]] does it during their night on Jaya.
*** Then he has an orgy with [[spoiler:Lily, Mani, and Muret of the Bellamy Pirates]], all of whom are drunk at the time.
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Presumably thanks to Luffy’s training, he’s capable of inflating his entire body, temporarily turning him into a giant. The form was used to defeat Mr. 3.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Nami has this reaction for a few moments after shooting Luffy with the Buggy Ball (at his insistence) before Luffy reveals himself to be unharmed.
* MyGodYouAreSerious: All of Luffy’s crew has this reaction when a few choice words from Zoro convince them that Luffy isn’t lying about coming from the future.
* NotQuiteFlight: Luffy can use the ''Geppo'' (Moonwalk) technique in this fic, allowing him to jump on air.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: More like obfuscating ignorance; the only stupidity that Luffy feigns has to do with his future knowledge, and maintaining the masquerade of obliviousness. He gets plenty of genuine moments, though.
* OhCrap: Frequently.
** In Jaya, Sarquiss and the rest of the Bellamy Pirates refuse to accept their captain’s defeat at Luffy’s hands…until Luffy shows some of his Conqueror’s Haki, which makes them think of the only other pirate they knew of who could do that: Donquixote Doflamingo. Understandably, their pride caves at that point as they ''finally'' realize that they had been BullyingADragon.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Luffy says he’s not hungry at the end of Chapter 79, after his memories of Blackbeard come to the surface. The rest of the crew is thunderstruck (except Robin); ''nothing'' had made Luffy lose his appetite before, and he’d had some really bad nightmares already.
* OutOfCharacter: Somehow, this trope is averted, despite Luffy’s past and even his loss of obliviousness towards women; he remains the IdiotHero we all know and love.
* RazorWind: Luffy is able to use the ''Rankyaku'' (Tempest Kick) technique in this fic.
* RunningGag: Whenever there’s a Lemon, Sanji gets the inexplicable urge to murder Luffy. He has no idea why, but he still beats him up every time.
* SecretKeeper: Zoro acts as this for Luffy from the beginning of the Drum Island Arc (Chapter 37) to the end of the Alabasta saga, at which point he informs the rest of his crew (Chapter 63). Ace also finds out, though to a slightly lesser degree, in
Chapter 47.
* SneezeCut: In Chapter 73, after Luffy tells Vivi the story of how he ate his Devil Fruit, she comes to the conclusion that he and Shanks have to be the biggest idiots on the seas. Cut to somewhere in the New World, with Shanks sneezing and then asking, “Who’s an idiot?”
* SparedByAdaptation: Minor example. Thanks to Greg and Grace, Pell gets a lot more time to take Crocodile’s bomb away to a safe distance, meaning he doesn’t even have to attempt the HeroicSacrifice that he somehow survives in canon.
* SuperToughness: Luffy is able to use the ''Tekkai'' (Iron Body) technique in this fic, and it’s one of the Six Powers that he uses most frequently.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: In a CMOA, Gin delivers one of these to Don Krieg after losing to Sanji. He realizes thanks to Luffy’s advice that the crew was weak, and when Krieg disowns him for daring to say as much, he turns against him.
* TookALevelInBadass:
** First, the obvious: Luffy came from the future, so he has mastery of the three forms of Haki. He also trained under Garp for a few years after returning, giving him mastery of the Rokushiki (Six Powers).
** Johnny and Yosaku never really seemed to be all that tough in canon. Once they join the crew, that’s quick to change.
** Then we have Vivi. In this fic, she stays with the crew after Alabasta due to hearing Luffy’s secret, and consequently discovering that there was still more to do for her country that she wouldn’t be able to do by staying behind. Bottom line? The author writes in the fourth movie, Dead End Adventure, and Vivi ends up with [[spoiler:Gasparde’s Logia-type Candy-Candy Fruit]], skyrocketing her potential.
* TrainingFromHell:
** Luffy’s training with Garp is implied to have been traumatic.
** The Haki training that he puts his crew through is rather painful as well.
* TrueCompanions: As in canon, we have Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, and Robin thus far, but in an effort to avoid having his crew overpowered by Marines again in the future, Luffy has actively tried to make his crew bigger this time.
** Gin is the first new addition, after Luffy thrashes Krieg…and giving implications beforehand that his captain wasn’t all he claimed to be. Gin realizes this after he loses to Sanji, and at the end, when his resolve to return to the Grand Line is finalized, Luffy extends the invitation. He accepts.
** Nojiko also decides to come along to see Nami see her dream through. Well, that and to make sure she’s safe after [[spoiler:catching Luffy and Nami in a Lemon]].
** Yosaku and Johnny are given an invitation when the crew is en route to Arlong Park. They accept in the end.
** Crosses over with Enemy Mine above; after a couple of brutally effective Curb-Stomp Battles, as well as learning that Baroque Works’ true intentions do not aspire towards an ideal nation, three of the officer agents join the crew: [[spoiler:Miss Valentine]] in Whiskey Peak and [[spoiler:Mr. 5]] and [[spoiler:Miss Goldenweek]] in Little Garden. At the end of the Alabasta arc, [[spoiler:Mr. 5]] reluctantly leaves the crew to seek his own dreams, but the other two become permanent members.
** Vivi also elects to remain with the crew after hearing about Luffy’s past and the World Government’s atrocities towards everywhere that he had visited, understanding that her country is still in danger and she can’t do anything about it by staying behind.
* WeakButSkilled: Nojiko. She’s nowhere near as strong as some of the crew, but she makes up for it with exceptional agility and precision with knives and pistols. The first fight we see her in, she takes on six Baroque Works bounty hunters at once in Whiskey Peak, and wins without a scratch.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe:
** Miss Valentine has this reaction when Luffy uses Moonwalk to follow her into the air, she floating with her Kilo-Kilo Fruit powers.
** Many present have this reaction when Vivi accidentally says Crocodile’s name, either because of her carelessness or the fact that they’re up against a Warlord.

Doesn’t stop her from stealing the Merry when it comes to that, but she doesn’t bother to put up a JerkassFacade when Luffy and crew come to the island.
* FingerPokeOfDoom: Of all the Six Powers, ''Shigan'' (Finger Pistol) is the only one that Luffy hasn’t used in actual combat; it’s implied that he doesn’t particularly like that particular technique.
* FinishingEachOthersSentences:
** Johnny and Yosaku, near perpetually.
** Zoro and Nami have a very brief instance of this when they meet Miss All Sunday for the first time.
* FlashStep: Luffy can use the ''Soru'' (Shave) technique in this fic, without having to resort to Gear Second.
* GroinAttack:
** Luffy gives Helmeppo a creative one of these in Chapter 4, shooting a perfect stone cylinder out of the wall to strike him between the legs…''very'' hard.
** As in canon, Luffy gives Buggy one of these during his fight when he tries to go after Nami.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: The Open-Open Fruit is this. Zoro lampshades how feeble the power seems from the name when Luffy tells him about the fruit, but when he explains that it can open ''anything'' you can think of, including portals in time, which affords one the capability of [[BackFromTheDead undoing death]] or [[UnPerson preventing birth]], Zoro retracts that opinion very quickly.
* HeelFaceTurn: Luffy recruits many more crewmates this time, about half of which were previously enemies: Gin, Alvida, Valerie ([[spoiler:Miss Valentine]]), Grace ([[spoiler:Miss Goldenweek]]), and Greg ([[spoiler:Mr. 5]]), though he makes it clear from the start of his alliance with Luffy that he’s only joining them until Baroque Works is defeated. True to his word, he leaves after the war…though it’s with reluctance with how much the crew has grown on him.
* HellholePrison: Impel Down is, of course, this; it’s perhaps the worst prison in fiction. But it bears repeating, considering the fact that it’s enough to give Luffy PTSD whenever he mentions it.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: As in [[strike:canon]] the original movie, bounty hunter Shuraiya Bascùd doesn’t have a default weapon; he uses anything he can get his hands on, from chairs to shovels.
* JawDrop: Frequent, of course, even if you don’t count the ones borrowed from canon.
** When Luffy performs the aforementioned Groin Attack, Coby has one of these, but Zoro is too busy laughing his ass off to do the same.
** When Luffy makes a deal with Morgan to give him a boat and let him leave the island if he wins…and then stands still and does nothing, everyone apart from Morgan does this. Then they have another one when he hits Luffy with his axe, and the axe shatters.
** Zoro, Nami, and Buggy’s crew all have this response when Luffy survives a direct, point-blank hit with the Buggy Ball without a scratch.
** Johnny and Yosaku have this reaction when Luffy catches the cannonball that Fullbody shoots at them.
** The Krieg pirates and Baratie chefs do this when Gin begins his TheReasonYouSuckSpeech about the crew.
** Everyone present has this reaction when Luffy swallows the MH5 bomb and blows the gas back at Krieg, remaining perfectly unharmed thanks to his immunity.
* {{Lemon}}: As stated by the author, this is not a fic centered on lemons. But with Luffy’s eyes opened to women, this has happened a few times thus far:
** [[spoiler:Nami]] does it during the post-Arlong party. She intended to leave it at a kiss, but her passion grew too much after said kiss.
** [[spoiler:Nojiko]] does it during the party after leaving Drum Island. Same story as above.
** [[spoiler:Alvida]] does it during their night in Yuba.
** [[spoiler:Paula (Miss Doublefinger)]] does it after the Alabasta war is over.
** [[spoiler:Vivi]] does it on the first (filler) island after leaving Alabasta. Not even remotely intended, but one mishap leads to another leads to another leads to…well, this.
** [[spoiler:Nami]] does it again on the (filler) fireworks island.
** [[spoiler:Valerie]] does it during their night on Jaya.
*** Then he has an orgy with [[spoiler:Lily, Mani, and Muret of the Bellamy Pirates]], all of whom are drunk at the time.
* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Presumably thanks to Luffy’s training, he’s capable of inflating his entire body, temporarily turning him into a giant. The form was used to defeat Mr. 3.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Nami has this reaction for a few moments after shooting Luffy with the Buggy Ball (at his insistence) before Luffy reveals himself to be unharmed.
* MyGodYouAreSerious: All of Luffy’s crew has this reaction when a few choice words from Zoro convince them that Luffy isn’t lying about coming from the future.
* NotQuiteFlight: Luffy can use the ''Geppo'' (Moonwalk) technique in this fic, allowing him to jump on air.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: More like obfuscating ignorance; the only stupidity that Luffy feigns has to do with his future knowledge, and maintaining the masquerade of obliviousness. He gets plenty of genuine moments, though.
* OhCrap: Frequently.
** In Jaya, Sarquiss and the rest of the Bellamy Pirates refuse to accept their captain’s defeat at Luffy’s hands…until Luffy shows some of his Conqueror’s Haki, which makes them think of the only other pirate they knew of who could do that: Donquixote Doflamingo. Understandably, their pride caves at that point as they ''finally'' realize that they had been BullyingADragon.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Luffy says he’s not hungry at the end of Chapter 79, after his memories of Blackbeard come to the surface. The rest of the crew is thunderstruck (except Robin); ''nothing'' had made Luffy lose his appetite before, and he’d had some really bad nightmares already.
* OutOfCharacter: Somehow, this trope is averted, despite Luffy’s past and even his loss of obliviousness towards women; he remains the IdiotHero we all know and love.
* RazorWind: Luffy is able to use the ''Rankyaku'' (Tempest Kick) technique in this fic.
* RunningGag: Whenever there’s a Lemon, Sanji gets the inexplicable urge to murder Luffy. He has no idea why, but he still beats him up every time.
* SecretKeeper: Zoro acts as this for Luffy from the beginning of the Drum Island Arc (Chapter 37) to the end of the Alabasta saga, at which point he informs the rest of his crew (Chapter 63). Ace also finds out, though to a slightly lesser degree, in
Chapter 47.
* SneezeCut: In Chapter 73, after Luffy tells Vivi the story of how he ate his Devil Fruit, she comes to the conclusion that he and Shanks have to be the biggest idiots on the seas. Cut to somewhere in the New World, with Shanks sneezing and then asking, “Who’s an idiot?”
* SparedByAdaptation: Minor example. Thanks to Greg and Grace, Pell gets a lot more time to take Crocodile’s bomb away to a safe distance, meaning he doesn’t even have to attempt the HeroicSacrifice that he somehow survives in canon.
* SuperToughness: Luffy is able to use the ''Tekkai'' (Iron Body) technique in this fic, and it’s one of the Six Powers that he uses most frequently.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: In a CMOA, Gin delivers one of these to Don Krieg after losing to Sanji. He realizes thanks to Luffy’s advice that the crew was weak, and when Krieg disowns him for daring to say as much, he turns against him.
* TookALevelInBadass:
** First, the obvious: Luffy came from the future, so he has mastery of the three forms of Haki. He also trained under Garp for a few years after returning, giving him mastery of the Rokushiki (Six Powers).
** Johnny and Yosaku never really seemed to be all that tough in canon. Once they join the crew, that’s quick to change.
** Then we have Vivi. In this fic, she stays with the crew after Alabasta due to hearing Luffy’s secret, and consequently discovering that there was still more to do for her country that she wouldn’t be able to do by staying behind. Bottom line? The author writes in the fourth movie, Dead End Adventure, and Vivi ends up with [[spoiler:Gasparde’s Logia-type Candy-Candy Fruit]], skyrocketing her potential.
* TrainingFromHell:
** Luffy’s training with Garp is implied to have been traumatic.
** The Haki training that he puts his crew through is rather painful as well.
* TrueCompanions: As in canon, we have Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, and Robin thus far, but in an effort to avoid having his crew overpowered by Marines again in the future, Luffy has actively tried to make his crew bigger this time.
** Gin is the first new addition, after Luffy thrashes Krieg…and giving implications beforehand that his captain wasn’t all he claimed to be. Gin realizes this after he loses to Sanji, and at the end, when his resolve to return to the Grand Line is finalized, Luffy extends the invitation. He accepts.
** Nojiko also decides to come along to see Nami see her dream through. Well, that and to make sure she’s safe after [[spoiler:catching Luffy and Nami in a Lemon]].
** Yosaku and Johnny are given an invitation when the crew is en route to Arlong Park. They accept in the end.
** Crosses over with Enemy Mine above; after a couple of brutally effective Curb-Stomp Battles, as well as learning that Baroque Works’ true intentions do not aspire towards an ideal nation, three of the officer agents join the crew: [[spoiler:Miss Valentine]] in Whiskey Peak and [[spoiler:Mr. 5]] and [[spoiler:Miss Goldenweek]] in Little Garden. At the end of the Alabasta arc, [[spoiler:Mr. 5]] reluctantly leaves the crew to seek his own dreams, but the other two become permanent members.
** Vivi also elects to remain with the crew after hearing about Luffy’s past and the World Government’s atrocities towards everywhere that he had visited, understanding that her country is still in danger and she can’t do anything about it by staying behind.
* WeakButSkilled: Nojiko. She’s nowhere near as strong as some of the crew, but she makes up for it with exceptional agility and precision with knives and pistols. The first fight we see her in, she takes on six Baroque Works bounty hunters at once in Whiskey Peak, and wins without a scratch.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe:
** Miss Valentine has this reaction when Luffy uses Moonwalk to follow her into the air, she floating with her Kilo-Kilo Fruit powers.
** Many present have this reaction when Vivi accidentally says Crocodile’s name, either because of her carelessness or the fact that they’re up against a Warlord.
