Detailed Answer

In One Piece Chapter 1017, the manga sees Jinbei fighting Who’s-Who, one of the members of the Tobiroppo. Jinbei recalls the rumor about the rogue CP9 member who escaped from the prison as they fight. Who’s Who was surprised and told him that what Jinbei had heard was true. At the same time, Who’s Who also confirmed that he was a rogue member of CP9, the secret intelligence agency.

Who’s Who continued to spill more details about him, but Jinbei responded that he had nothing to do with it. However, Jinbei being an official member of the Straw Hat Pirates is now part of his bitter past.

Who’s Who then shared about his failure 12 years ago. According to the Tobiroppo member, he failed to guard the devil’s fruit that was being transported on a government ship. That devil fruit was the Gomu Gomu no Mi. Who’s Who was surprised that Luffy was the one who ate the stolen Gomu Gomu no Mi.

As the two warriors fight, Who’s Who reveals his rage towards Luffy after seeing him wearing Shanks’ hat. Who’s Who also confirmed that the Red Hair Pirates are the pirate crew who stole the Gomu Gomu no Mi.
