What is Gear 5?

The Gear 4 technique was introduced way back in 2016 when Luffy fought against Donquixote Doflamingo in the Dressrosa arc. Right after, we even got to see Gear 4’s sub-forms, including Boundman, Snakeman, and Tankman in the Whole Cake Island arc. Since then, One Piece fans had been eagerly waiting to see Luffy level up and reveal the new Gear 5 technique.

Well, it took more than 5 years, but it finally happened in Luffy’s final battle with Kaidou in the Wano Country Arc. So, Luffy’s Gear 5 is the latest gear technique in his arsenal. It is the awakened form of Luffy’s Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika devil fruit (not Gomu Gomu no Mi, as revealed by Silvers Rayleigh).Gear 5 is even considered to be the peak form of Luffy, unlike any other we have seen before. Gear 5 is Luffy’s pinnacle power, and he can do anything he wants in this form. Furthermore, it is mentioned that his powers are only limited by his imagination.

With this gear unlocked, Luffy is said to resemble the “Warrior of Liberation” — Sun God Nika, who is said to bring smiles, joy, and freedom to the people. Gear 5 gave Luffy the complete freedom he ever wanted, and as a result, enabled him to bend reality and break the laws of physics.

Additionally, Luffy was seen smiling throughout this form, which indeed put a bright smile on the fans’ faces. But what’s more interesting is that Luffy’s devil fruit, Straw Hat, and many other things are related to Joyboy, and this metaphor of him smiling suits the theme around it in a beautiful way.
