One 20-50 megaton should do it.

He's never shown heat resistance feats in the hundreds of thousands of degrees, I'm gonna say one nuke at point blank vaporizes him Haki and all, but anything further than 100-300m and he should be able to tank an indeterminate amount of nukes until he dies of radiation poisoning.

One. Anything beyond that would be a ridiculous outlier.

One nuke would reduce him to atoms.

A mountain+ busting nuke will likely take him down.

@leo-343: That wasn't necessarily a nuclear device, not even sure they have that tech in One Piece.

Luffy could tank a couple nukes if equated to just physical force... However 1 actual nuke would kill him.

I feel like people are going to assume this thread concludes that Luffy is much less durable than Thing, but his durability just works in different ways. He's not protected from general energy attacks or other factors a nuke would produce.

Realistically one nuke up close should turn his rubber body to ash, In the OP verse however, it would leave him bruised and very damaged, he would still stand up after that tho, thats just how the OP verse works

5, to the face, consecutive, MAYBE would knock him out

The force of one isn't the problem, it's the heat he can't take.

Idk in One Piece big ass explosions don't really do much depending on the character, in Film Z, Z set off a Dyna Rock explosion which was island level, dwarfing the power of a nuke and he was shown later on as if nothing happened and he was=< Luffy

@longman: Nuclear detonations are absurdly hot, in the hundreds of thousands of degrees at the center of the fireball. Nothing in One Piece come close in temperature, not even Akainu.

@trueaustralian: IIRC, he took an island busting nuke from a very powerful concentrating lightning bolt: https://youtu.be/cLswR0YxinQ?t=6m17s

However Luffy is inherently resistant to lightning. Still, that doesn't mean he's resistant to its enormous heat... But turns out he also is.

That was pretty early in the series.

@chaarrrt:

The fireball from a nuclear explosion reaches blackbody temperatures greater than 10 7 K

Lightning on the other hand peaks at around 30,000 kelvin

If this actually happened in the manga though we all know Luffy would tank it.

I thought he might when you said Luffy is stronger than a nuke.
