==Background== | |||
Luffy is the pirate captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, ever since he was a child he dreamed of becoming a pirate and eventually the Pirate King, who to him is the freest man on the sea. | |||
Luffy is primarily characterized by his incredible stupidity and his incredibly determination, while being very simple minded Luffy will rarely give up on a goal he has set, he will recruit people to his crew without consulting them or anyone else if he feels they would make a fit, even having asked people to join his crew within seconds of meeting them. Luffy is also a very skilled fighter, using his fruits in very inventive ways and coming up with strategies to beat his opponents on the fly. | |||

'''Regular Techniques:''' | |||
[[File:Gomu_Gomu_Pistol.jpg|right|250px|Gomu Gomu no Pistol]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Pistol''' (''ゴムゴムの銃ピストル Gomu Gomu no Pisutoru, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Pistol/Gun"''): Luffy's signature attack; he stretches his arm back then throws a devastating punch. In other words, it is a standard straight punch, augmented with stretching. This attack can be used from short to long range. Luffy would typically increase the striking reach of fist by 'charging up' by means of first repeatedly swinging his un-stretched punching arm around before using the spinning force to both stretch his arm to its limits, and to maximize the hitting power. | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Pistol "Shot"''' (''ゴムゴムの銃ピストル「散弾」ショット or 「散弾」ショットガン Gomu Gomu no Pisutoru Shotto or Shottogan?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Pistol/Gun: 'Buckshot'"''): Starts off as an ordinary Pistol attack, after which Luffy "twangs" his stretched arm, causing his fist to connect multiple times. This was first seen being used against Crocodile after Luffy wet his own body with water. In the anime this is called Gomu Gomu no Pistol and Shot (or merely called Gomu Gomu no Shot/Shotgun). | |||
[[File:Gomu_Gomu_no_Bazooka.gif|thumb|Gomu Gomu no Bazooka]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Bazooka''' (''ゴムゴムのバズーカ Gomu Gomu no Bazūka?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Bazooka"''): Luffy stretches both his arms far back, and then hurls them forward, striking his opponent with both instantaneously with a double open palm strike with both hands, that frequently sends the recipient(s) flying off the other direction. This is usually used as a finishing move, he often prefers to do it at point-blank range, sometimes running up to his opponent as he's charging it. This was first seen being used to defeat Buggy. This is called Gum-Gum Bazooka in the Viz Manga and FUNimation dub, Gum-Gum Double Barrel in the 4Kids dub, and Rubber Rubber Bazooka in the Odex dub. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Bullet''' (''ゴムゴムの銃弾ブレット Gomu Gomu no Buretto?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Gun Bullet"''): Luffy stretches one arm, far behind him while running, then snaps it back to deliver a short-distance, one-fisted powerful blow to an opponent. This was first seen being used on Don Krieg. This is called Gum-Gum Bullet in the Viz Manga and FUNimation dub and Gum-Gum Burst in the 4Kids dub. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Bow Gun''' (''ゴムゴムのボーガン Gomu Gomu no Bōgan?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Bow Gun"''): Taking hold of his opponent from behind, Luffy repeatedly twists his torso vertically around his hips before grasping them with his feet and then rapidly untwisting, creating a snapback that sends his opponent flying upwards. This was first seen being used against Wapol. This is called Gum-Gum Bowgun in the Viz Manga and FUNimation dub and Gum-Gum Crossbow in the 4Kids dub. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Rifle''' (''ゴムゴムの回転弾ライフル Gomu Gomu no Raifuru?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Rotating Bullet"''): Similar to the Gomu Gomu no Bullet, but Luffy twists his arm around as he stretches it behind him and hits the opponent at close range, massively increasing the velocity of the punch as twisting the arm stretches the arm even further without having to draw it back any longer which also saves the amount of time the kick-back takes. This attack is called Gum-Gum Rifle in the Viz Manga and FUNimation dub and Gum-Gum Drill in Grand Adventure. This was first seen being used against Enel. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Cannon''' (''ゴムゴムの攻城砲キャノン Gomu Gomu no Kyanon?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Siege Cannon''): Luffy builds up speed and momentum with a long series of quick punches similar to Gomu Gomu no Gatling, stopping just short of the target(s) at first, and finishes with a single double-palm blow similar to Bazooka. A powerful technique that can pierce strong armor, and, in combination with Zoro's Three-Swords Style, is devastating enough to puncture a hole through a massive tidal wave. This was first seen being used against one of the Franky Family's "Kairiki Destroyers". In the Viz Manga, FUNimation dub, and video game Grand Adventure, this is called Gum-Gum Cannon. | |||
'''Other Weapons Themed Attacks''' | |||
The known normal Devil Fruit based attacks so far that are named after other weapons other than guns, that Luffy has used, are as follows: | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Muchi''' (''ゴムゴムの鞭 Gomu Gomu no Muchi, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Whip"''): Luffy stretches his leg and kicks in a wide circle, striking multiple foes. This was first seen being used against a group of Marines in Shells Town. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Tsuchi''' (''ゴムゴムの槌 Gomu Gomu no Tsuchi, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Mallet"''): Luffy stretches out his arms while twisting them, and then takes hold of his opponent. He then untwists them, rapidly spinning his opponent, while bringing him crashing to the floor. This was first seen being used against Richie after he and Mohji destroyed Chouchou's master's store. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Kama''' (''ゴムゴムの鎌 Gomu Gomu no Kama, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Sickle"''): Luffy grabs an object behind his opponent and pulls himself towards them. He then stretches out his other arm and clotheslines his opponent. This was first seen being used against Buggy. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Yari''' (''ゴムゴムの槍 Gomu Gomu no Yari, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Spear"''): Luffy holds his feet together (with the bottoms of each touching each other) and kicks with both simultaneously via his toes (giving off the image of an actual spearhead). This was first seen being used against Kuro after Luffy dodged his attack. There are instances where this attack is also sometimes performed via his two feet stomping on his target's face, making it akin to a two-legged Gomu Gomu no Stamp. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Ogama''' (''ゴムゴムの大鎌 Gomu Gomu no Ōgama, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Scythe"''): Identical to Gomu Gomu no Kama, but he uses both arms for the rocket and the clotheslining. This was first seen being used on a group of Krieg's pirates that were attacking the Baratie. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Ono''' (''ゴムゴムの戦斧 Gomu Gomu no Ono, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Battle Axe"''): Luffy stretches one leg high into the air, then brings it crashing down via a high-gravity stomp on an opponent or structure, for massive damage, strong enough to destroy large buildings and ships in a single hit. Usually when Luffy executes this attack, after stretching out his leg, he brings his foot down immediately below him, however sometimes (mainly in the anime and in the video games) he keeps his leg extended and brings it down, like a vertical version of Gomu Gomu no Muchi. This was first seen being used on the front porch of the Baratie. It was also used to destroy Crescent Moon Galley's ship in the First Romance Dawn although not named. He also defeats Arlong with this move. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Ozuchi''' (''ゴムゴムの大槌 Gomu Gomu no Ōzuchi, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Big Mallet"''): Similar to Gomu Gomu no Mallet, but he performs it using the feet and legs instead of hands and arms while in mid-air. He performed this while he was trapped inside Krieg's net, sending the latter crashing into Baratie's front porch. This was first used against Don Krieg. | |||
'''Other Concepts and Themed Attacks:''' | |||
The known normal Devil Fruit based attacks so far that are named after other concepts other than weapons, that Luffy has used, are as follows: | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Kane''' (''ゴムゴムの鐘 Gomu Gomu no Kane, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Bell"''): While latched onto an enemy, Luffy stretches his neck backwards, then snaps it back for a devastating head butt to the opponent's face. This was first seen being used to defeat Kuro. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Kazaguruma''' (''ゴムゴムの風車 Gomu Gomu no Kazaguruma, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Windmill/Pinwheel"''): A technique that was used once in the Arlong Arc. Luffy planted his feet into the ground to steady himself, then twisted his body around tightly. He then grabbed hold of Arlong's pet Momoo and unwound, spinning the Sea King around rapidly to crush the Fish-Men surrounding him. After spinning around several times, Luffy then let go of Momoo and threw him far away. While it took out most of Arlong's Fish-Men, it however had the disadvantage of getting Luffy's feet stuck in the ground. This was first used against the Arlong pirates. This rather reckless move was inspired by the sight of the pinwheel on top of Genzo's hat by Luffy. In the Viz Manga, this is called Gum-Gum Windmill while in the 4Kids and FUNimation dubs, this is called Gum-Gum Pinwheel. Luffy also used an alternate version of this move in the video game One Piece Grand Battle and Grand Battle Rush! where he merely twists his mid-section as he unwinds with both arms out to smack around himself 360 degrees; another version is also during his fight with Rob Lucci, where he simply grabs his target and twisting his mid-section before unwinding, and throwing his opponent. Both these alternate versions do not involve planting his feet on the ground prior. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Stamp''' (''ゴムゴムのスタンプ Gomu Gomu no Sutanpu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Stamp"''): Luffy stretches his leg out and hits his opponent with the bottom of his foot, leaving an imprint, or "stamp", of his sandal. This was first seen being used to finish off Mr. 3. Sometimes in a few instances, the aforementioned Gomu Gomu no Yari is performed akin to a Gomu Gomu no Stamp, only with both of Luffy's feet close together. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Baku Baku''' (''ゴムゴムのバクバク Gomu Gomu no Baku Baku, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Chomp Chomp"''): Luffy stretches his mouth wide open, and attempts to bite or swallow his opponent. This attack was named after and copied from Wapol's Baku Baku no Mi powers. This technique was first seen being used against Crocodile. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Marunoko''' (''ゴムゴムの丸鋸 Gomu Gomu no Marunoko, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Buzzsaw"''): Luffy grabs his opponent from afar with both arms and winds himself up like with a bow gun. He then kicks off from the ground and spins towards his opponent to deliver a powerful head butt. This was first seen being used against Crocodile after Luffy wet his own body with water. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Kazan''' (''ゴムゴムの火山 Gomu Gomu no Kazan?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Volcano"''): Similar to Gomu Gomu no Ono, except Luffy's foot is stretched upwards to break through a roof, and is not followed by a stomp like Gomu Gomu no Ono. This was first seen being used against marines at Enies Lobby. In some instances such as a few video games, it is often the starting technique for the upward version of Gomu Gomu no Storm. | |||
'''Rapid Fire Techniques:''' | |||
[[File:Gomu_Gomu_no_Gatling.jpg|thumb|Gomu Gomu no Gatling Gun]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Gatling''' (''ゴムゴムの銃乱打ガトリング Gomu Gomu no Gatoringu?, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Gun Battering"''): Luffy uses his stretching ability to bring his fists forward repeatedly in a blurry, rapid barrage of strong punches that creates the illusion of him having multiple arms, however he does not actually grow more arms so he can still be stopped by an opponent fast enough (as Enel, Rob Lucci and Usopp have demonstrated). This was first seen being used against a group of Black Cat Pirates after being accidentally hypnotized stronger by Jango. This is called Gum-Gum Gatling Gun in the Viz Manga, Gum-Gum Gatling in the FUNimation dub (and sometimes the Viz Manga), Gum-Gum Rapid Fire in the 4Kids dub, Rubber Gatling in episode 1-53 of the Odex dub, Rubber Rubber Punch during one scene in the Warship Island arc in the Odex dub, and Rubber Rubber Gatling for the rest of the Odex dub. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Storm''' (''ゴムゴムの暴風雨ストーム Gomu Gomu no Sutōmu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Storm (Rain)"''): An extremely powerful move and is easily one of Luffy's strongest attacks. Luffy first uses Gomu Gomu no Balloon and twists his body around tightly, then blows the air out behind him while untwisting to fly in forward while spinning towards an opponent, where he delivers a constant barrage of powerful punches similar to Gomu Gomu no Gatling, with power greatly enhanced by the momentum of his launch. This was first seen being used to defeat Crocodile. This attack was powerful enough to beat Crocodile through an extremely thick ceiling of solid bedrock and cause a huge earthquake in Alabasta, and then propel him several hundred feet into the air. This technique can be used going sideways, upwards towards airborne targets, and downwards while Luffy is airborne. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Stamp Gatling''' (''ゴムゴムのスタンプ銃乱打ガトリング Gomu Gomu no Sutanpu Gatoringu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Stamp Gun Battering"''): Similar to Gomu Gomu no Stamp, except he makes multiple strikes with his foot. This was first seen used at Marineford against the Three Admirals, crushing a mast frozen by Aokiji. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Ame''' (''ゴムゴムの雨 Gomu Gomu no Ame, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Rain"''): Luffy jumps into the air and performs a strong, rapid-fire punching attack while spinning. Similar to Gomu Gomu no Storm, except without inflating himself beforehand, and he punches while descending like rain. It was first seen being used on gaolers of Impel Down. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Hanabi''' (''ゴムゴムの花火 Gomu Gomu no Hanabi, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Fireworks"''): Luffy jumps into the air and spins around rapidly. He then stretches and wraps himself in his own arms and legs like a rubber ball. When the rubber rebounds and the 'ball' is unwrapped he unleashes a flurry of punches and kicks of increased speed, that go in every direction due to his fists and feet bouncing back and forth. This was first seen being used against the White Berets in Skypiea. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Tako''' (''ゴムゴムのたこ Gomu Gomu no Tako, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Octopus"''): A technique in which Luffy makes his appendages go limp that they resemble the tentacles of an octopus. In the anime, he takes a deep breath which inflates his head to a large size and his limbs go limp when he exhales. This was done in an attempt to figure a way to fight against Enel's Mantra ability. | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Tako Hanabi''' (''ゴムゴムのたこ花火 Gomu Gomu no Tako Hanabi, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Octopus Fireworks"''): Much like Gomu Gomu no Hanabi except, due to the previous move, Gomu Gomu no Tako, his limbs bounce off of walls without losing speed. Because his limbs are limp, Luffy cannot predict or control where they will go if they ricochet off of an object, much less the unlucky opponent(s). This is completely advantageous against a Kenbunshoku Haki user as they also cannot predict where Luffy's punches and kicks would come at them. This technique was used against Enel during Luffy's battle against him. | |||

(''ゴムゴムのボー Gomu Gomu no Bō..., literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Dunno..."''): A technique in which Luffy "switches off" his conscious mind, allowing him to avoid attacks entirely on instinct. This made him immune to Enel's mind-reading Mantra ability. The disadvantage is that he can neither think nor attack in this state. This was first used against Enel. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Rocket''' (''ゴムゴムのロケット Gomu Gomu no Roketto, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Rocket"''): Luffy's main method of traveling long distances fast. He stretches out one of his arms or both and grabs a handhold, then retracts them, projecting himself high into the air at high speeds, over great distances, or even into an opponent. This was first developed when Luffy was a child, along with Ace and Sabo, battling against the king of Mt. Colubo, a giant tiger; Ace gave this attack its name. This technique is often times reckless especially if not done properly as Luffy could accidentally propel himself into a body of water or worse. Indeed, Luffy has little to no control after launching himself, being unable to change directions in mid-flight, and is only able to (barely) decelerate before landing. This was first seen being used to propel Luffy to the top of the Marine Base in Shells Town in the manga. In the anime, it was first seen being used to crash into Alvida's crew. This technique is also capable of landing devastating attacks against larger opponents as shown against Dorry. A humorous usage of this "attack" was accidentally against Ace and Smoker in a restaurant, who are both Logia users but did not have the reflex to counter the charge. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Fusen''' (''ゴムゴムの風船 Gomu Gomu no Fūsen, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Balloon"''): A technique where Luffy inflates himself rapidly through his mouth, further increasing his resistance to blunt attacks. With his inflated body, Luffy is capable of deflecting projectile attacks back at his attackers. This is not necessarily always an attack as Luffy can also use this technique for other purposes aside from deflecting projectiles such as escaping Smoker's Smoke Snake technique or using himself as a cushion when his ship is in for a hard landing. This can also prevent Luffy from sinking under water, making him bounce off the surface. This was first seen being used against one of Buggy's cannonballs after Luffy insulted Buggy. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Tate''' (''ゴムゴムの盾 Gomu Gomu no Tate, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Shield"''): Luffy grabs the fingers of one hand with the other, and stretches them before his face to block blades that pass between the fingers. This was first seen being used on Arlong. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Ami''' (''ゴムゴムの網 Gomu Gomu no Ami, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Net"''): Luffy entwines his fingers making a net like shape and then stretches out his fingers making a larger net in an attempt to trap his opponents. This was first seen being used on Arlong. | |||

'''All of Pre-Timeskip's techniques, plus:''' | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Thank You Fire:''' Luffy first absorbs the projectiles the way he does normally and then accurately rebounds the projectiles at an enemy with twice the power as when they hit him. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Snake Shot:''' Luffy moves his arm in a snake-like fashion and grips the enemy, possibly inflicting piercing damage. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no UFO:''' Luffy rotates his lower half of the body to act like a helicopter and levitate in the air. | |||

{{!}}-{{!}}Gear Second= | |||
[[File:Gear_Second_Luffy.gif|thumb|left|Pre-Timeskip]] | |||
'''Gear Second'''(ギア2セカンド Gia Sekando, literal meaning Gear Second): This technique involves Luffy speeding up the blood flow in all or selected body parts, in order to provide them with more oxygen and nutrients. This makes him much faster and more powerful. The technique uses even more oxygen and energy, using up more food and causing Luffy to pant heavily. Lucci, one of the first of Luffy's opponents to witness it, compares the process to doping. Doping is adding more red blood cells to the body part/s, which in turn allows for greater delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the body part/s. In Luffy's case, his organs and blood vessels are made of rubber allowing them to expand and contract at greater rates without tearing. Essentially Luffy increases the blood flow by forcing more blood through his blood vessels thus increase his fighting ability. [[File:Gear_Second_Post_Timeskip.gif|thumb|right|Post-Timeskip]] This mode's enhancements to Luffy's physiology giving him the ability to use a new, stronger set of techniques which are generally the same as his old ones, but are so fast that even a skilled assassin would have a hard time actually seeing them. He developed this ability after encountering CP9, and watching them use Soru. The techniques in this mode are basically the same as the regular attacks, but greatly augmented by his enhanced attack speed and, consequently, attack power. | |||
'''Techniques:''' | |||
*'''Soru''' (''剃 Soru, literally meaning "Shave"''): With the enhanced metabolism, Luffy is able to perform the Rokushiki technique Soru, allowing him to move at disappearing speeds. His prowess of it has surpassed that of Blueno's. In the Viz Manga and FUNimation dub, this is called Shave. This was first seen being used against Blueno. | |||
[[File:Jet_Pistol_Luffy.gif|thumb|Jet Pistol]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Pistol''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェット銃ピストル Gomu Gomu no Jetto Pisutoru, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet Pistol/Gun"''): Luffy delivers a Gomu Gomu no Pistol so fast that the fist's movement is invisible, and it truly seems like he shoots his opponent, except that the resulting impact is not akin to an actual pistol, but to a small hand-held cannon and powerful enough to propel the unlucky recipient several meters away. The incredible speed both makes the strike far more powerful, and harder to dodge. When using this technique, he points his other hand out to aim at his target. This was first seen being used against Blueno. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Stamp''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェットスタンプ Gomu Gomu no Jetto Sutanpu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet Stamp"''): Luffy delivers a Gomu Gomu no Stamp, with the same effect as the Jet Pistol. This was first seen being used against Blueno. | |||
[[File:Jet_Bazooka.gif|thumb|Jet Bazooka]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Bazooka''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェットバズーカ Gomu Gomu no Jetto Bazūka, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet Bazooka"''): Luffy charges at his opponent at high speed, and delivers an incredibly fast and strong Gomu Gomu no Bazooka. In the Viz Manga, FUNimation dub, and FUNimation subs, this is called Gum-Gum Jet Bazooka. This was first seen being used against Blueno. It was apparently powerful enough to break through Blueno's strongest Tekkai technique, Tekkai: Go, as well as Boa Marigold's Busoshoku Haki-enforced guard. During the battle against Moria in his Shadow's Asgard form, Luffy demonstrated being able to use this move to propel himself from mid-air, allowing him to perform this attack continuously. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Whip''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェット鞭ウィップ Gomu Gomu no Jetto Wippu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet Whip"''): Luffy delivers a 'Gomu Gomu no Muchi, so fast, that only the slipstream is visible. This was first seen being used against Rob Lucci in order to protect Franky from him. Unlike the original Muchi, the kanji is alternately read in English instead of Japanese. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Bullet''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェット銃弾ブレット Gomu Gomu no Jetto Buretto, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet (Gun) Bullet"''): An extremely fast, close-range punch with very great force. When attacking head-on, the stretching of the original Bullet along with the resulting snapback seem to occur almost simultaneously at once, making it virtually inescapable. This was first seen being used against Rob Lucci. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Twin Jet Pistol''' (''ゴムゴムのツインJETジェット銃ピストル Gomu Gomu no Tsuin Jetto Pisutoru, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Twin Jet Pistol/Gun"''): Luffy punches with both arms simultaneously. Visually, the move only differs from his normal Gomu Gomu no Bazooka in that instead of doing an open palm strike, he has clenched fists which leave two knuckle shaped imprints on his foe. As since the move hit so fast, the air from it really looks like Luffy is literally firing two pistols. This was first seen being used against Rob Lucci and is one of the few moves unique to Gear Second (unless the anime-only regular "Gomu Gomu no Twin Pistol" is included). | |||
[[File:Jet_Gatling_Gun.gif|thumb|Jet Gatling Gun]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Gatling''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェット銃乱打ガトリング Gomu Gomu no Jetto Gatoringu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet Gun Battering"''): This is Luffy's strongest technique in Gear Second. Luffy stands still, bends forward and moves his arms upwards at speeds which they can no longer be seen, leaving only jet streams in their place, very much like how the Jet Pistol looks. This results in an effect comparable to Foxy's Kyuubi Rush, except that Luffy does not need to make use of Noro Noro photons to slow down his target in order to accumulate the hits. The hits land so fast that, after a volley, they seemingly connect simultaneously. The circles of air bursts from the punches surrounding Luffy, resemble the many barrels of an actual Gatling gun. However, due to the large amount of energy it uses, Luffy cannot sustain it for long, although the time it is used is longer than the regular Gatling. During his fight against the combined efforts of Marigold and Sandersonia, Luffy demonstrated an omnidirectional version of this move by falling on his back, then, while lying down, launches a rapid barrage of powerful high-speed punches from the ground, effectively nullifying both sister's attacks. This was first used to defeat Rob Lucci. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Rocket''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェットロケット Gomu Gomu no Jetto Roketto, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet Rocket"''): A Gear Second version of Luffy's Gomu Gomu no Rocket technique. After grabbing onto something with stretched out arms, Luffy instantly propels himself forward with blinding speed. This was first seen being used against Moria. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Jet Migawari''' (''ゴムゴムのJETジェット身代り Gomu Gomu no Jetto Migawari, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Jet Scapegoat"''): Somewhat of a gag move where Luffy stretches his arms to grab a person (an ally, an opponent, or otherwise a simple bystander) from afar then pulls them close to where he is to block an attack that Luffy would otherwise be incapable of surviving on his own. Using his Gear Second's speed, Luffy can capture himself a shield very quickly. He has a normal (non-Gear Second) variant of this move where Luffy sends the recipient spinning towards the assaulter to preoccupy them as he makes his escape. This was first seen being used by Luffy on Buggy, using the latter as a human shield against Dracule Mihawk.[[File:Luffy_Red_Hawk.gif|thumb|Red Hawk]] | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Red Hawk:''' Luffy uses his Busōshoku Haki in conjunction with Gear Second to ignite his arm and strike his opponent, creating an explosion upon contact | |||
{{!}}-{{!}}Gear Third= | |||
[[File:Gear_Third_Luffy.gif|thumb|right]] | |||
'''Gear Third:''' Luffy pumps air through his bones to make them gigantic. This gives his arm more mass and a larger area to attack with far greater strength. Previously Luffy turned into a chibi form after canceling the technique but after the timeskip he no longer shrinks in size. The techniques in this mode are basically the same as the regular attacks, but greatly augmented by his increased mass and power. | |||
* '''Hone Fusen''' (''骨風船 Hone Fūsen, literally meaning "Bone Balloon"''): Luffy inflates his body by blowing air into his bones. This is done by biting into his right thumb, presumably cutting it open down to the bone, and then blowing air directly into the opened bone. This technique seems to give Luffy a sturdier defense than the regular balloon, since bullets now ricochet off of him instead of bouncing off of him. Due to this form having a disadvantage of moving about, he can transfer his air into his torso, and then launch himself with his "Gomu Gomu no Rocket" technique. This was first fully shown in Luffy's battle against Rob Lucci. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Pistol''' (''ゴムゴムの巨人のギガント・銃ピストル Gomu Gomu no Giganto Pistoru, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Giant Pistol/Gun"''): Luffy delivers a Gomu Gomu no Pistol with extreme force due to the larger size of his fist. This was first fully seen being used against Rob Lucci. Its sheer power was able to fling him from the Bridge of Hesitation on to a Buster Call Battleship. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Rocket''' (''ゴムゴムのロケット Gomu Gomu no Rokketo, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Rocket"''): A Gear Third version of Luffy's normal Gomu Gomu no Rocket. While using this move, Luffy's chest bones are inflated, and bullets ricochet off his body. This is not explicitly named as a "Gigant" move. This was first seen being used to propel Luffy onto a Buster Call battleship in pursuit of Rob Lucci. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Axe''' (''ゴムゴムの巨人のギガント・斧アックス Gomu Gomu no Giganto Akkusu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Giant Axe"''): A Gomu Gomu no Ono with even more power due to his enlarged foot and leg. This was first seen being used against Rob Lucci. Its sheer power is able to damage and create a hole in the deck of a Buster Call Battleship. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Whip''' (''ゴムゴムの巨人のギガント・鞭ウィップ Gomu Gomu no Giganto Wippu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Giant Whip"''): Gomu Gomu no Muchi with more power due to his enlarged foot and leg. This was first seen being used against Rob Lucci. Its sheer power is able to damage the mast of a Buster Call Battleship. In the anime, Luffy used a haki-infused version against Doflamingo. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Bazooka''' (''ゴムゴムの巨人のギガント・バズーカ Gomu Gomu no Giganto Bazūka, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Giant Bazooka"''): A Gear Third version of Luffy's Gomu Gomu no Bazooka attack. To create this attack, Luffy inflates both his arms by biting both his thumbs and blowing into them. With both his arms inflated to large proportions, Luffy then delivers the attack onto an opponent the same way he regularly does with a normal Gomu Gomu no Bazooka attack, except with much greater power. This was first seen being used against Oars to break his spine. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Rifle''' (''ゴムゴムの巨人のギガント・回転弾ライフル Gomu Gomu no Giganto Raifuru, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Giant Rotating Bullet"''): Luffy activates Gear Third to expand one of his arms and then use it to launch a giant version of the original Gomu Gomu No Rifle at a target with greater power, drilling hard into the unfortunate target. This attack is strong enough to destroy the heavily-armored Pacifista, and was first seen being used to defeat PX-4 on the Sabaody Archipelago. The fist produced in this attack is approximately the same size as the entire body of the giant Luffy uses it to defeat. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Stamp''' (''ゴムゴムの巨人のギガント・スタンプ Gomu Gomu no Giganto Sutampu, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Giant Stamp"''): Luffy activates Gear Third and expands his foot to deliver a giant version of Gomu Gomu no Stamp with greater force. Incidentally, this was first used in conjunction with Mr. 3's Giant Candle Wall to push it back. This was first seen being used against Magellan in Impel Down. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Fusen''' (''ゴムゴムの巨人のギガント・風船 Gomu Gomu no Giganto Fūsen, literally meaning "Rubber Rubber Giant Balloon"''): Luffy activates Gear Third and expands his torso to create a giant version of his traditional Gomu Gomu no Fusen, with a much sturdier defense. This move was strong enough to cushion the impact from a massive adversary and was first used to protect Ace and Mr. 3 from a punch of Sengoku in his giant form. | |||
[[File:Elephant_Gun.gif|thumb|right|Elephant Gun]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Elephant Gun:''' After pumping air into his fist to drastically increase its mass, Luffy uses his Busōshoku Haki to harden it (appearing to be significantly harder than his regular Gear Third which has been likened to steel in the sense bullets ricochet off his Gear Third limbs instead of bouncing off), turning his arm black in the process. Luffy then attacks in a similar motion to when he uses his Gigant Pistol, launching his fist towards his opponent. This attack seems to be more densely pumped with air at the tip compared to the Gigant Pistol, forming a large round ball at his forearm, whilst the rest of his arm remains at the same size, although stretched. | |||
**'''Gomu Gomu no Thor Elephant Gun:''' An enhanced version of the move in which Luffy launches himself into the air with Gomu Gomu no Rocket first, before striking, discharging electricity when it lands. | |||
[[File:Elephant_Gatling_Gun.gif|thumb|Elephant Gatling]] | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Elephant Gatling:''' After enlarging and imbuing both his arms with Busōshoku Haki in a similar manner as Gomu Gomu no Elephant Gun, Luffy uses his stretching ability to bring his fists forward repeatedly in a blurry, rapid barrage of strong punches that creates the illusion of him having multiple arms. | |||
* '''Gomu Gomu no Grizzly Magnum:''' [[File:Grizzly_Magnum.gif|thumb|Grizzly Magnum]] After enlarging and imbuing both his arms with Busōshoku Haki and gaining a considerable distance from his opponent, Luffy stretches his arms back and strikes with open palms simultaneously while in the air. | |||
*'''Gomu Gomu no Tsuppari:''' After enlarging his arms, Luffy strikes his opponent with an open palm. This does not require the use of Haki. | |||
**'''Gomu Gomu no Gigant Tsuppari:''' A more powerful version of '''Tsuppari''' in which Luffy stretches his arm very far back, and as it shoots forward he inflates it greatly before striking his opponent with a massive open palm. | |||
{{!}}-{{!}}Gear Fourth= | |||
'''Gear 4th:''' In order to activate the technique, Luffy coats his arm in Busoshoku Haki before biting into his forearm. Similar to how he activates Gear Third, he blows an incredible amount of air into his body, but this time he inflates his muscular structure before distributing the air throughout his body, with emphasis on his upper half. Luffy's proportions become warped and his body becomes much larger in size, with his arms, upper torso, and legs coated in Busoshoku Haki. [[File:Gear_4th.gif|thumb|Boundman]] The coating across his torso resemble the wispy ends made from flames, giving it the appearance of tattoos, and he also gains shading around the inner and outer edges of his eyes. Gear Fourth also increases Luffy’s metabolism. Once Gear Fourth reaches its limit, it automatically deactivates and Luffy is left exhausted and unable to use Haki for ten minutes. Even afterwards, Gear Fourth is extremely taxing on Luffy's body and stamina. | |||
* '''Boundman:''' Luffy's proportions become warped and his body becomes much larger in size, with his arms, upper torso, and legs coated in Busoshoku Haki. In this form, Luffy is continuously emitting steam in this form. As a side-effect, he is incapable of standing still on the ground, and instead constantly bounces on the spot. While Luffy is using Boundman, his physical strength and speed are increased whereas before, Gear Second's lack of strength and Gear Third's lack of speed made them ineffective individually. | |||
[[File:Kong_Gun.gif|thumb|Gomu Gomu no Kong Gun]] | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Kong Gun:''' After compressing his fist into his enlarged forearm (and making it look like an actual cannon), Luffy unleashes a devastating short-range punch with enough power to break through Doflamingo's own Haki-enhanced defense and blow the Shichibukai all the way from Dressrosa's palace to the middle of the city. | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Rhino Schneider:''' After compressing both legs into his body, Luffy delivers a double flying kick. It has enough power to send the opponent crashing through dozens of buildings and across a town center. | |||
[[File:Gear_Fourth_Culverin.png|thumb|250px|Gomu Gomu no Culverin]] | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Culverin:''' Luffy delivers a punch like a regular Gomu Gomu no Pistol, but if it is dodged, he can redirect his punch an unspecified number of times, without losing momentum, to still land with tremendous force. In addition, this punch does not need to retract back to his body right after being "fired" as the regular Gomu Gomu no Pistol does. It can sharply change its trajectory multiple times until it hits its desired target. | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Double Culverin:''' Luffy pulls back his arms before punching his opponent with them. | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Leo Bazooka''': Luffy winds up his two arms and launches them out with open palms, releasing a blast of air that can send a close ranged target flying at incredible momentum. It is executed very similarly to his Gomu Gomu no Bazooka. | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no Kong Organ:''' Luffy fires off several Kong Gun punches in rapid succession. This attack is similar to his Gomu Gomu no Gatling Gun, and seemingly shows Luffy firing off dozens of punches simultaneously. | |||
[[File:Luffy_King_Kong_Gun.jpg|right|250px|King Kong Gun]] | |||
** '''Gomu Gomu no King Kong Gun: '''Luffy blows a large amount of air into his arm, drastically increasing its size, before compressing his fist and unleashing a devastating blow. This was first used to defeat Doflamingo, and was powerful enough to break through the Shichibukai's Spider's Web and God Thread techniques simultaneously, as well as send him flying into the city below with enough force to completely level the town and cause the ground to be torn apart. | |||
[[File:TankmanLuffy.png|right|250px]] | |||
* '''Tankman:''' Luffy takes a form similar to Bound-Man, but his torso is enlarged to the point where he basically looks like a Rubber-Ball. This form focuses heavily on increasing his defenses and the harmonization between his Haki and Gomu-Gomu powers. | |||
**'''Tankman: Manpuku Version:''' So far the base form of Tankman is unknown. To activate this form Luffy has to consume copious amounts of food, which makes him consequently grow to an enormous and bloated size. Tankman gives Luffy tremendous Haki-based durability to which it is stronger than that of Boundman. Furthermore, this form further increases the power and magnitude of Boundman's compression-based offense by using Luffy's enormous stomach as a launcher. | |||
***'''Gomu Gomu no Cannonball''': The Gear Fourth version of '''Gomu Gomu no Fuusen''' and '''Gomu Gomu no Ore Fire'''. After trapping an enemy within him by compressing and withdrawing his stomach, Luffy launches them forward and into the air with incredible power and speed. | |||
[[File:Snakeman luffy.jpg|right|250px]] | |||
* '''Snakeman:''' Luffy takes a form similar to Bound-Man, but he appears much skinnier, and this form focuses heavily on the use of homing attacks and a dramatic increase in speed. | |||
**'''Python''': An attack method employed by Luffy in both Bound-Man and Snake-Man. He sends his fist out and continuously changes its path in order to land hits on opponents who try to evade it. The more his punches miss and stretch, the faster they become. | |||
**'''Gomu Gomu no Jet Culverin''': Similar in nature to Bound-Man's Culverin attack, but much faster. | |||
**'''Gomu Gomu no Black Mamba''': Luffy uses a mix between Python and Gomu Gomu no Orgun, sending a flurry of attacks that home in on the enemy should they deflect or dodge the initial punches. | |||
**'''Gomu Gomu no King Cobra''': There is no clear use to this attack, but Luffy enlarges his right arm and sends it out from random vectors until it strikes his opponent with great force. His most powerful attack in this form. | |||
