When the plot of One Piece reaches the Dressrosa Arc, OPlovers are surprised by Luffy's latest technique, Gear 4. In Gear 4 mode, Luffy will inflate like a large balloon and his hands and feet and part of the body are coated with haki.
In this mode, Luffy's speed and strength increase rapidly. Especially in terms of strength, Luffy's Gear 4 mode is really hard to match.
Even so, some OPlovers claim that Luffy's Gear 4 mode is too weak to fight a Yonkou. Here Admin will try to discuss it.
Actually, Admin agrees if it is said that Luffy's Gear 4 mode is too weak to fight a Yonkou. Not without reason Admin said this, Admin will list the reasons:
1. Gear 4 Luffy mode has a time limit
Remember when Luffy fought Doflamingo in this mode? Of course you already know if Luffy was exhausted and exhausted. At this moment Luffy had to wait ten minutes for Hakinya to recover.
From here we can already guess that Gear 4 Luffy has limits. If fighting Doflamingo alone is overwhelming how about Yonkou?.
Then came the statement of OPlovers who supported Luffy "Min, Luffy was already exhausted when fighting in the arena, then he also fought with Bellamy, naturally he was overwhelmed".
Just a reminder, Luffy used Gear 4 mode after Doflamingo fought with Law on the green bit bridge, fought with Law on the roof (when Luffy fought with Bellamy) and was hit by Law's Gamma Knife. What do you think Doflamingo's condition is? Of course he is also exhausted.
In another sense, the Luffy vs Doflamingo fight was a fair fight (fair in physical condition).
2. Gear 4 Mode Impacts Luffy's Body
Luffy's Gear 4 mode is very haki-draining. That means Luffy cannot carelessly remove this gear. If Luffy continues to use this gear, it will have an impact on Luffy's body.
Imagine if Luffy uses Gear 4 mode and cannot subvert Yonkou within the Gear 4 time limit, then Luffy is certainly helpless because his physique is already tired.
Even when Luffy fought with Big Mom in the Whole Cake Island Arc, after the fist fight Luffy immediately fell. Fortunately, Sanji was immediately caught, otherwise One Piece would have been finished hehehe.
3. Luffy's Leg Attack Distance Shortened in Gear 4 Mode
In Luffy and Doflamingo's fight, it was never shown that Luffy used moves with his legs over a long distance.
Luffy's attack distance with his legs becomes short. This condition makes Luffy's attacks ineffective because he cannot use his legs freely. This is certainly a disadvantage for Luffy.
These are the 3 reasons why Admin said that Gear 4 Luffy is too weak against a Yonkou. Hopefully Oda Sensei will provide new strength for Luffy.
Have another opinion?
