Below is a list of the various theories on Luffy's mother. I found these on other forums and random sites. I read number 7 and 8 on the same forum, and it inspired me to post my own thread. I once posted a thread asking for theories on Luffy's mom and received a comment that it was impossible to create a theory about someone we know nothing about. Surprisingly, even though Luffy's mom has never even been mentioned in one piece, there are many theories about her:
Luffy's mom theories
1: Luffy's mom is Gol D. Roger's sister
2:Luffy's mom is the former gomu gomu no mi user
3:Luffy's mom was a marine
4:Luffy's mom was a Celestial Dragon
5:Luffy's mother has already appeared in "One Piece" either as a named character or someone in the background that readers didn't notice
6:Luffy's mom was a pirate
7: not only was she a pirate,* she was inspired by real life pirate Mary Read, who fell in love with a prisoner of her's whom she called "husband" (Luffy's mom/Mary Read:Mary Read's "husband"/Dragon). She later avoided execution by announcing she was pregnant, and died in prison. There is no record of the burial of her child. In Assassin's Creed Black Flag, she died after giving birth. The theory goes that Luffy's mom/pirate was captured, gave birth to Dragon's son Luffy in prison (where she bled to death without proper medical treatment), and Luffy was rescued by his grandfather who took him away to safety. Dragon, angry at her death, started the revolutionary army.
8:Luffy's mom was Dragon and Makino's childhood freind. She was taken away by a Celestial Dragon who was visiting Goa Kingdom.
9:since Luffy doesn't look like Dragon, people believe he resembles his mother (or Roger if Luffy's mom is actually Roger's sister).
10:Luffy doesn't have a mom.* He was cloned from Dragon by Vegapunk for whatever reasons.
9 is really a side note. I find ten disturbing, but believe I should include it. I find number 7 and 8 are especially interesting. Of course it's completely possible Oda will never tell us about her. Thoughts?
Edit:all theories belong to their respective authors
