Goosebumps!! Luffy’s Gear 5 has finally been released, and fans are super excited for the upcoming episode of the series as this is where the real fight begins. That’s also why, the whole fandom is looking forward to the upcoming release date of One Piece episode 1072.
In the last episode, we had Gear 5th, and we had Kaidour, we had everything in this episode, and we all know that One Piece blew this episode up in a hot minute. This isn’t all Luffy and Kaidou’s fight, but it’s a huge intro to Gear 5 and Gomu Gomu no mi.

When the last episode of the released episode opens, we see that Luffy is resurrecting, he is turning into the legendary Joyboy, because as we saw in the pre-released episode, Zunesha starts screaming. At the same time, he also mentioned that he could hear the Emancipation Drum, for the first time in 800 years, and that’s why he was certain that Joyboy was back.
With that, when Luffy finally regained consciousness, he wondered what was going on with him and how he was able to stand up since he lost the battle, and started laughing at the enchanting music.
An interesting fact here is that we haven’t even seen the manga, because in the comics Luffy is ready to go, and I’m glad they added it to the anime, and we have This yellow light.

Cutting to Mary Geoise, we see the Five Elders talk about the sacrifice of Guernica, who was there to stop Luffy. We also see him discuss Luffy’s Devil Fruit, where one of them says that the World Government is always trying to get the Gomu Gomu no mi, however, it never reached them for 800 hours. year.
Others also said that the fruit seemed to be avoiding them because it wasn’t entirely unreasonable. Zoan-type Devil Fruits have a will of their own, and not only that, Gomu Gomu no mi bears the name of God, because the alternate names for that fruit are The Zoan, Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Type, Model.” Nika”.

In addition, we also discovered that Nika has the exact properties of rubber, that’s why he can fight as he imagines and can make people smile. He is none other than the Liberation Warrior, also known as “Nika”, the Sun God.
After awakening Gomu Gomu no mi, it gives the user’s rubbery body extra strength and freedom, and that fact makes it the most ridiculous power in the world.

Luffy fully recovered in Gear 5 emitting the extremely powerful Haoshoku Haki, and as a result, many members of the Beasts Pirates were knocked down. With that, Luffy grabs Kaidou in Dragon form and pulls him up, and this is where the anime’s funnest and best fight scenes begin because from now on, Luffy x Kaidou’s fight is like more like the Tom x Jerry fight.
