What is Gear 5 in One Piece?
As a result of Luffy’s Devil Fruit, Hito Hito no Mi, and awakened true form of Model: Nika (not Gomu Gomu no Mi), Gear 5 is his new method. It is the pinnacle of Luffy’s power and bestows on him godlike skills, enabling him to essentially perform any action he can think of.
Let’s analyze Luffy’s new shape in detail by breaking down what could seem to be a lengthy explanation. The main revelation is that Luffy’s devil fruit, Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, which grants its possessor the abilities of the Sun God Nika as well as a rubbery body, is actually the Mythical Zoan devil fruit, not the Gomu Gomu no Mi, which was previously thought to be his.
With Gear 5 unlocked, Luffy is essentially granted access to the Sun God Nika’s full power and is free to do whatever he pleases. His creative ability is the sole limit to his newfound strength.
Gear 5 Powers and Abilities Explained
As was already noted, Luffy can pretty much do whatever he wants thanks to Gear 5. His speed and toughness levels have also improved in his new awakened form to the point where they are comparable to those of a Yonk0-level.
One of the most significant new abilities is Gear 5’s capacity to essentially shift reality and transform anything into a rubber shape, which enables Luffy to increase the range of his attacks and essentially rule the battlefield. And as if that weren’t terrifying enough, Gear 5 enables our hero to simultaneously infuse both Armament and Conqueror’s Haki kinds.
Other amazing Gears 5 capabilities include the freedom with which Luffy can switch between Gears 3 and 4 in this new form without inflating himself like a balloon.
