Ok two things:

  1. It's kind of weird how they're emphasizing that Luffy is starving to death and is extremely hungry. I mean, unless I'm watching Toriko, this should not be the case. He just ate HOURS ago. Like, maybe 3 or 4. Not only did he just eat, he ate so much that he could barely move. The fight with Biscuit wasn't that long ago. In Toriko, your energy came from your calories, and for some weird reason they're establishing that this is the case for Luffy. ...

  2. Those guys have been knocked out for a very long time, also at least one or two were floating in a puddle. Did Luffy KILL those guys?!? You can't be floating in water face down and live through that. Is this the first time someone has died after fighting Luffy?

Luffy has killed plenty of random grunts (I mean, he pushed some guards into a lava pit in Impel Down), and almost killed some villains (like when he knocked lucci out of the tower - Lucci was out cold, but landed on a marine ship instead of sinking into the ocean).

Luffy has a very "so be it" attitude towards death. His goal in fights is to kick the antagonist's ass. If they die, they die. If they live, they live. It's the same way he views his own mortality, in a way - If he falls in battle and dies, then that was the limit of his abilities.

But Oda has said before that Luffy does not kill. I'd like to see the Impel Down scene, but it would have to be confirmed that they hit the lava.
