The Mind-Blowing Unveiling of Luffy's Unbeatable Gear 5 Attack You Don't Want to Miss!

Warning: Spoilers For One Piece Anime, Manga, And The Film One Piece: Stampede Gear 5 Luffy has displayed astonishingly powerful and visually stunning attacks against Kaido in the epic battle of the One Piece anime. However, his most impactful move draws inspiration from one of the franchise's top movies. Although the fight between Luffy and Kaido has been ongoing, fans can finally anticipate the release date for the climactic showdown in Wano. Episode #1074 featured Luffy preparing his ultimate attack - a comically colossal fist that matches the size of the floating island of Onigashima. Devoted viewers who have seen the animated film, where Luffy faced off against a former member of the Pirate King crew, will find this gigantic anime attack quite familiar.

In 2019, One Piece: Stampede, the 14th feature film in the franchise, graced the theaters, delivering an action-packed spectacle that lasted an hour and forty-one minutes. Although the events of the film are not part of the official canon, it introduced a tremendously formidable adversary in the form of Douglas Bullet, a former member of the Roger Pirates. He single-handedly battled Luffy and many other infamous pirates from the Worst Generation. Defeating him required an unlikely alliance and showcased one of Usopp's most remarkable accomplishments, which greatly aided Luffy. The Straw Hat Captain managed to trigger one of Usopp's traps with an enormously powerful punch, making it the largest seen in the series until the recent episode #1074 of the anime.

One Piece: Stampede Spoiled Luffy's Final Wano Arc Attack

In the climactic scene of Stampede, a collaboration among characters like Law, Hancock, and Vice Admiral Smoker unfolds as they join forces to confront Bullet. While Luffy charges up his attack, he infuses his rubbery arm with a gust of air, causing his fist to inflate to gargantuan proportions resembling a mountain. Seizing the opportunity presented by his distracted adversary, Luffy's Gear 4 form, known as Bounce Man, soars onto the battlefield, unloading his most formidable attack ever unleashed. Demonstrating the trademark of a seasoned warrior, Luffy proclaims his finishing move, christening it the "Gum-Gum King King King Kong Gun," which compensates for its lack of originality with its devastatingly powerful impact. Remarkably, the rubber-clad Pirate Emperor's Gear 5 abilities enable him to execute a strikingly similar assault without requiring extensive preparation.

Gum-Gum Bajrang Gun Carries More Weight Than Triple King Kong Gun

The epic showdown between Gear 5 Luffy and Kaido has commenced in the latest installment of One Piece, episode #1074. In this intense clash, Luffy combines his Armament and Conqueror's Haki with his formidable Gear 5 powers to unleash a devastating attack upon Kaido. This assault surpasses the magnitude of the colossal strike employed in the climactic moments of One Piece: Stampede. Kaido, however, confronts this fresh assault, known as the "Gum-Gum Bajrang Gun," with his own formidable technique, as the battle reaches its pinnacle amidst the skies of Onigashima. Regardless, both of Luffy's mighty fist-based attacks were indispensable in fending off adversaries who approached the legendary status of One Piece's Pirate King.

Luffy's trademark of pummeling opponents with his inflated fists has become quite common in the One Piece franchise. However, it is only recently that the young Pirate Emperor has achieved a level of strength that allows him to unleash exceptionally powerful attacks. One Piece: Stampede was released in 2019, and Luffy introduced his monumental Gear 5 Gum-Gum Bajrang Gun in chapter #1047 in April 2022. This suggests that Oda and his team were so thrilled with the Stampede attack that they found a way to incorporate something similar into the official One Piece storyline. Once the current battle in the One Piece anime comes to an end, fans will fully grasp the sheer devastation of this new attack in comparison to any of Luffy's previous punches.
