Portgas D. Ace, born as Gol D. Ace and nicknamed "Fire Fist" Ace, was the sworn older brother of Luffy and Sabo. Ace was a tall muscular young man with curly black hair. He stopped wearing anything over his upper body. He wore black boots, black knee-length shorts with an eyelet-studded orange belt, and a blue pouch belted around his left leg. He wore a red beaded necklace and an orange cowboy hat with two blue smileys, and a string of red beads sitting above the rim.
