Brontosaurus
CharacterBrontosaurus was a dinosaur living on the prehistoric island of Little Garden. He briefly swallowed Luffy whole before being killed and eaten by the giant Dorry.
Appearance
Brontosaurus was a sizable green-skinned dinosaur whose long neck stretched up to a head that looked tiny against his bulky frame, as is typical of his kind.
Personality
Very little surfaced about his temperament. Vivi regarded him as a creature that was gentle in nature yet still posed real danger.
History
While exploring Little Garden, Luffy and Vivi crossed paths with Brontosaurus, and Luffy clambered up his neck to perch on his head and survey the island. Vivi told him to climb down, but he ignored her, and the dinosaur flipped him back with a toss of its head and gulped him down in one bite. Dorry, who had been watching, swiftly decapitated the beast to free Luffy from its throat, then cooked and ate it. Despite the strength to swallow Luffy, the creature was utterly outmatched by the giant. Adaptations differ on the encounter: the anime expands it into several brontosauruses while the manga features only one, and the live-action shows a group from which Luffy and Vivi climb just a single dinosaur.
