[@akleughuglouh]

Gyst Bellemy in my eyes Has probably one of the highest basic combat potential of all the paramecia fruits in the entire series. The main problem with a lot of luffy's basic Gomu Gomu techniques is that they require a wind-up. Bellemy isn't restricted like this. He goes to punch you and before you can blink his arm is hurtling into your face at four times the speed. He can't do all the crazy balloon stuff luffy does but when it comes to sheer combat prowess, he can't be beat in a hand-to-hand fight of equivalent skill. Imagine what Bellemy could do if he had the same kind of resourcefulness though. What if he turned his arm hairs into springs and gained like bouncy armor from it. What if he turned each one of his fingers into springs and shot them out like bullets. Better yet, each segment into springs so he could curve the bullets with a bend of his finger joints. Speaking of joints, why hasn't this man turned his muscles into springs yet. Imagine the sheer devastation you could cause by doing that with Haki.

very true. In fact, Im pretty sure that is were Luffy got inspiration fro for his Gear Fourth.

[@UshRedberry]

Bruh.. am I the ONLY one who thinks Bellamy can just absorb the "king's punch" with the dial+his DF and then use it as a MAIN weapon in combat?

[@MrWhatdafuBOOM]

I believe one of the reasons why Luffy keeps Gear Fourth covered in Armament Haki (Aside from controlling the direction of his limbs, thanks for that explaination, by the way) could be because on it's own, Muscle Balloon would be too soft. Luffy's muscles basically turn into a suit of air pockets. So he needs the Armament to make his limbs hard again, while keeping his increased bounciness. At least that's my take on it.

[@clips1404]

If Luffy's muscles are unable to tear, does that mean that this is his base strength and he can only get stronger by improving his haki? What I mean is that normally people get stronger by working hard enough to tear their muscles resulting in those muscles repairing themselves such that they're larger and stronger. If Luffy has been a rubber man since he was a kid, he could never do that, meaning he's never gotten physically stronger (with the exception of normal muscle growth that comes with ageing)

[@Soul688]

I'm fairly sure muscle growth can happen without microtears; as muscles (or most other body parts ) respond and apapt to stimuli. The tears in muscles may just add to the stimulus normal people obtain, but in luffy's case it may be able to make him grow quicker; as his muscles don't tear that makes him able to work out everyday without having a recovery period.

[@kakanatre2283]

Well. He would get stronger, he just wouldnt get bigger.

[@marcosantana4330]

thats why he is so skinny ... and he will forever look young ... i always thought the rubber fruit will actually prolong his life since his body isnt affected by the same damage we take

[@KamuiPan]

People don't get it... His strength comes from the air that he put in to his body. With more pressure you have more potencial energy. I think luffy eventually is gonna use air as his awakening. Not each fruit is the same, neither the awakening. Of course this speculation is not different from any other. Tekking did a huge mistake relating to a normal human dopping. He only introduce air to his blood, bones and muscles not only they can resist to the effects of this abnormal air introduction but they get stronger. Do a simple test with a tire of any veicule that has one, with low air pressure the rubber itself get weaker. The same applies to Luffy, simple as that. I'm not saying that tekking perspective is wrong, the only problem is that he was trying to convey a normal human doping, that is not it. Even to the standards of doping in the series is complete different. He is producing more cell and having quicker moviment because of the air mixture to his blood. His transformation is more like a steam train them doping.

[@Slayer666th]

No that's not how muscles work. It has nothing to do with the pressure. Musclesfiber never can been produced! Only their size get's bigger making you stronger, meaning that even inflated muscles get stronger as long as their diameter gets increased! :)

Devilyn Sydame well those fuckers can make some crazy shit, how they pull it out is unknown to me

[@TriwerLp]

I think you missed the point of gear 4th that is turning Luffy into an living Compressor like 2nd turns his body into a Pump and gear 3rd turns it into an Giant Airtank (I admit that this one is abit far fetched). He does that through blowing air into his haki covered body (what tries to maintain the same shape while the air tries to inflate his body) and creates pressure which he can control through his mucles by rejecting his lim into itself and leting it go and/or alternating the haki concentarion in the given area, and it's because pressure is so high right from the start that his attacks become so powerful. Thats why the whole thing would never work without haki, that is if his awakend Devil Fruit would't allow him to control the decity of the Rubber he is made of or something like that. Also I think it's pretty cool that gear 4th essentially means Luffy beats what made him so strong after the timeskip (haki) and puts his body strength over the strength of his mind, like it is with his overall charecter. I hope you read this so I haven't wasted my time with writing it down.

[@burneraccount6351]

Pls excuse just blowing some bubbles and self inserting escapisizzissming.. I do reckon that haki isn't the god mode cheat it's cracked up to be. Maybe without haki he'd be able to reach gear fifth?

[@TriwerLp]

well since I think the gears are based on different machines if he where able to make gear 4th work without haki it would still be gear 4th just without the boundman or maybe with a new suffix but he probaly won't show it to us if he ever figures out a way but he might show us a complete compressed form of gear 4th where his body stays the same with much stronger haki and if I'm right gear 5th will be based around another machine or if I'm wrong it'll be something else

[@Ethan-yd4gn]

I know I am 5 whole years late to this discussion, but I am so desperate to vent my ideas about gear 4th after becoming a One Piece fan within the past like 2 years. First of all, I think haki is necessary for this form for similar reasons as Tekking describes, for the sake of control over his body. The reason it works differently from gear 3rd is because he is using haki to not only control the distribution of air in his body, but he's also using it to compress it down and create insane amounts of pressure inside of himself (you can tell that during his transformation and his blowing of air into his body, his arm gets absurdly large before he uses his haki to shape it and contain it, making him distinctly larger, but not as large as the amount of air he blew into himself would have suggested). I also believe that he's created a kind of synchronization between his devil fruit and his haki, giving his haki covered body in this form distinct properties compared to his normal usage of haki. When using normal haki, his skin essentially becomes hard as steel, not showing any signs of give or stretch. But in gear 4th, his haki has synced up with his rubbery body in a way, and through that, he's created a body with massively increased tension, but still holding that rubbery nature (demonstrated by the change of color and tribal tattoos maybe? But also demonstrated by the moment with Doffy's kick). Through these extreme levels of tension and heightened control, he is able to do things like retract his body parts into his air compressed body, build up insane amounts of tension, and then release them for a powerful impact. This next bit is much much more on the speculation end, but it's something that's helped me rationalize this form better in my head, conceptually and aesthetically. So I believe gear 4th came from a combination of Luffy's two previous gears, the pumping from 2nd, and (obviously) the blowing up from 3rd. While 3rd makes clear sense, he's blowing up a part of his body for an attack, 2nd may be more confusing. Well my reasoning is that Luffy in this form produces great amounts of steam for seemingly no distinct reason, but when you think back to gear 2nd, it kinda starts to make sense. Even though he isn't distinctly pumping any part of his body, his entire body has become a huge, crazy, constant pump, and with every movement he could very well be pumping his blood throughout his body as he does with gear 2nd. This could explain how he's able to retract and release his body at such quick speeds (such as when he's flying around and quickly shooting and retracting his feet), and it would just explain his general movement speed as even though he is firing his body around to move that quick, he would still need to be quick enough to prepare his arm for a punch before reaching his target (which is likely within a second or 2). Again, this is just hypothesizing, so I don't really know, I just really needed to vent these stupid ideas somewhere

You missed something when you were talking about Luffy's haki. It actually makes him resistant to cutting attacks, which are usually his weakness, because he is hard yet bouncy. It's almost like you're trying to cut a semi truck's tire with a plastic knife. And Doflamingo was not surprised about Luffy's haki, he was surprised that he couldn't cut him with his athlete technique even though cutting attacks are supposed to be Luffy's weakness.

for anyone who's confused by the name "Culverin", it's a kind of canon around from the 15th to 17th century. Long range, accurate, typically loaded with solid iron shot. used by the French army and later by the English navy. there is also an early form of musket with the same name. the name comes from the S shaped trigger mechanism that dips a burning bit of string (slowmatch) into the firing pan.

Maybe Lion form will be based on Conqueror's Haki, and Crocodile will be based on Observation?

When flying I think luffy's legs work more like speakers rather than pistons. It doesn't seem like he is stepping on air like sanji.

So his legs stay collapsed in his thighs and are continuously pushing air to fly rather than make sound

[@xlro8f853]

Hey so since you asked.... I'm a martial artist who is kinda a shonen junkie so this interested me before.. Real world applications for the different types of haki are Observation (awareness/sensitive gut feelings), Conquerer (the fear you invoke upon your opponent threw any means), and armament (an advanced martial arts practice that involves bone conditioning)

[@wesleywhyte8915]

There were some errors with your research. When working out, you tear your muscles with weights and this gives space for new protein to come in and make new muscle tissue in the gaps, thus increasing muscle mass and size. And skeletal muscles arent "holding your bones together" specifically, it refers to any muscle you can consciously control.

[@tannerworden8247]

This form is so simple to explain. From a physics perspective, Luffy uses Haki to changes his spring constant k (F = -kx). The x is the distance displaced of the spring. so in comparison to normal gum gum pistol, he needs a huge displacement to get decent force but in gear 4 just compacting the fist to about his wrist the force is crazy strong.

[@mohamedab9033]

theory behind ear 4th is "Rubber carbonization": The process of blowing CO2 into rubber to make it stretch a number of times it normally can and hardening it, all while maintaining its rubbery qualities. The same concept is used on making Bowling balls, which is literally what Bound Man is but on a different scale. Luffy used Armament Haki for the hardening part, making him still being inflated rubber with all its qualities yet so much durable to the point of completely nullifying Haki enhanced Blunt Attacks, as if we're back pretimeskip when those kind of attacks had no effect on rubber man.

I think Gear 5 used to defeat Katakuri will be speed based vs. any other version. I also predict that at the end of the fight Luffy will briefly tap into his awakening to shatter and escape mirror world. I got this idea from listening to other theorist but mostly from the color spread, where luffy is hitting mocha with the mallet. In the cover spread, he is surrounded by bunnies ( universality known as a symbol of speed). Its obvious that they are in the mirror world based on the double image. Luffy is surrounded by mochi seen on the tray ( 5 of them- Gear 5), their paws ( have a similar 5 points- and also looks like the mochi.

You can unlock observation haki by watching 2 to 3 horror films each day. You can upgrade your observation haki to the point that you can see a little bit into the future. This happens when people around you become too predictable. Armanent haki is impossible to achieve, you can make your attacks more affective by going through extremely hard work but you can't touch untouchable things such as gas and fire.

Chi is spiritual energy like haki .one man name it bio electromagnetic Waves.

Luffy became a fucking red rubber dodgeball. The sound he makes when bouncing is the same damn sound.

[@jamesoreilly8666]

Armor haki is essentially moving energy to a place in your body to increase the power of an attack or block and creating a thin energy field around the part of the body the energy is directed to. Showlin monks use this to brake bricks and balance on spears.

Great video!

[@TehJammah]

When are you doing the vid on Rokushiki (& Cypher Pol - since they don't seem to be done story-wise yet)?

[@Netroking]

Observation haki in real life is just being prophetic.

[@09antonioprz]

The simplest way of explaining this is to say he maintains an inflated form and haki is added to make him an iron bouncy ball. It lets him have the defense/strength of haki but it also lets him absorb damage. It gives him a double defense buff and power.

[@SupremeKai24]

I don't think we need to explain what Haki is but it is based on spiritual energy. Observation Haki is the matter of observing your opponent's movements or your surroundings, since all living creatures have haki, it would inform you how the attack is performed and where it's going since the user is aware of where it's going. Enel's arc has proven it doesn't work if the user is not in control of the direction or unconsciously.

I wasn't even notified about this video.

[@ayylmao1638]

i like to think that luffy shrinks his bones to collapse the into his arm and once he lets god he increases his elasticity to be able to launch his attack

[@StrengthUltimate]

I was looking for Luffys red hawk explained but you haven't made one yet 😭😭

[@ondelavimba1873]

I had observation haki when I was in a fight I blocked and parried with my eyes closed it was a very suprising moment for me

[@humptusdumptus4123]

[@Zalanash]
