Backstory:
The first thing that Raymond woke up to in a hospital room was death; His mother's death that is. Raymond Portgas was born to Helena Trenkov and Hector Portgas on December 4th, 2004 in a hospital room in Moscow. His father, who at the time was God knows where would never have known that his son was born to a prostitute that he had once been with. Helena would have died in child birth that same day, cursing Raymond for ever being conceived, her last words spewing hatred on him.
Raymond would have grown up a lonely child, having no next of kin and becoming a ward of the state before eventually ending up in an orphanage. At the time, the Russian Bratva would seem to have been picking up children from the orphanage that they paid off, setting their eyes on the lonely child and sending him off to dog fighting. He would have been worth a lot of money, typically fighting off most of his opponents with his wild nature.
Eventually, his time with the gang would have come back to bite him, until he was arrested at a young age and placed in juvenile detention for 2 years at the age of 12. Once out, he decided he was placed in the foster care system from which he stayed until he reached the age of 18th birthday, he had received a letter with no return address, a letter from his father who did in fact learn of his son and would have seemed to apologized to him for his abandonment. He would have detailed the fact that he had more family and more brothers, and that his reasonings for not revealing this to Raymond until his 18th birthday were because it would do "more harm than good."
After reading the details of the letter, Raymond set off with the money he had earned from most of his gang dealings to find his brother, Zuko Portgas. He had tracked down his brother to the city of Karakura, Japan. This is where Raymond lives to this day, making up for all the lost and waisted time in his life.
