Character Discussion Will Luffy ever stop being underestimated?

#1
Despite everything Luffy has under his belt like:
- Raiding Enies Lobby and causing it’s downfall
-Punching a Celestial Scumbag
- Breaking into and out of Impel Down
- Surviving the battle at Marineford and being mvp
-Hero of Dressrosa with formation of PK level fleet
- Being deemed Fifth Emperor of the Sea
- Killing Kaido
- Contributed to Linlin’s death
- Everyone aware of his special ability to make allies

Everyone still treats him like some greenhorn rookie and underestimate and talk down to him, with even the quality of his feats dropping out of the blue.

Literally no enemy respects or fear him still, they even confidently believe they can beat him. SMILIES THOUGHT THEY COULD BEAT LUFFY. Meanwhile no other strong character gets that portrayal, fodder piss their pants and run away once they see that the likes of Who’s Who has stopped holding back…. When people like Kaido or even Neckbeard show up, they cause a state of panic and caution… Luffy never got that, theirs no aura of supreme power surrounding him that others carry like Akainu and even Green Bitch

Look what Vegapunk did to them and how he treated a “yonko” crew

No, some do fear him. They just dont expect Luffy to look like he does. Remember back in Dressrosa? People expected him to be 8 feet tall

Look at him dude hahaha. I see him and I will also laugh and think he isnt up to his hype.

Just as Buggy.

But he is respected. This arc proves it, we saw how Zoro and Robin were praised to be a commander from a Yonko, so they can let their guard down. Who should expect the same for the captain.

But even strong fools are looked down, example Admirals at marineford, some bunch of veterans thought they could fight them, even a Vice Admiral thought he could fight Whitebeard. Or Whitebeard vs Crocodile, Ace, etc.

Moriah vs Kaido. Shanks vs Kidd, Big Mom vs WCI Luffy, Big Mom vs Jimbei and Robin, etc. Some people have balls and they don't care but sometimes that is what it takes to fight them, balls since we don't know when a DF or an ability of a certain character can help.

They are correct in their stance though.
No one has reached the amount of succes luffy has this young. They are bound to underestimate him. And it makes sense at the same time too when he was just casually left many times by marines itself. Plot armour make him win all that but in one piece reality it's difficult for people to accept someone reached to that level this soon. Literally no luffy enemy is or was his age. Kaido calling them " little monsters ".

No because Luffy doesn't look intimidating as he sounds like. Like, you don't expect him to be 7 feet tall with horns and a skull tattoo on his chest.
You just described a magma fuel. :risitameh:

Luffy doesn't really look threatening
And on common eye his df is also goofy
His childish mannerisms along with his young age make people underestimate him. Many don't take him seriously.
Moreover oda doesn't do him much favour at the start of any arc where his seems to take a beating
