In Romance Dawn V.1, Galley is a renowned Morgaina pirate known for his distinctive crescent mustache. He is one of the "Big Three" pirates, indicating his considerable strength. However, compared to Monkey D. Luffy, he is relatively weak.
Luffy first spots Galley's ship and decides to take it over so he won't have to sail in his small dinghy. He easily defeats Galley's crew and ties them up. The ship then lands at Silk's hometown, where Galley escapes and his men try to take revenge on Luffy. When they learn that Luffy is a Rubberman, they are frightened and flee. Luffy is subsequently tied up by the townspeople, who mistake him for Galley. Galley then takes Luffy hostage and steals the town's treasure. Enraged by Luffy after he smashes his hat, Galley throws Luffy into the ocean. Luffy is saved by Silk and uses Gomu Gomu no Axe to destroy Galley's ship. A furious Galley swears revenge.
Years later, Galley is seen as a crew member aboard Luffy's pirate ship, informing Luffy that land has been spotted. It seems that his encounter with Luffy transformed him from a Morgaina pirate to a Peace Maine, as Luffy wanted a crew made up solely of Peace Maines.
In the anime version of the Loguetown arc, Galley is depicted as an elderly pirate called Galley of the Crescent Moon, with a bounty of 3,450,000. His design and Jolly Roger are clearly inspired by the Romance Dawn Galley. He and his crew are seen raiding buildings in Loguetown before being captured by Captain Smoker.
