Gear 4th is one of Luffy's strongest forms of transformation. This technique is the result of Luffy's practice during his training on Kuraigana Island for two years. Also, this technique was first shown when Luffy fought against Doflamingo in Dressrosa.
This technique has a variety of attacks that are very strong compared to other Gear Luffy techniques. In the following article, we would like to review a list of Gear 4th's strongest techniques throughout the story. Let's talk about it right away!
10. Double Culverine
This Gear 4th technique is a stronger version of the Twin Pistol used by Luffy in Boundman mode. This attack technique has been strengthened with bushosoku no haki so that the attack power becomes even more terrifying.
The attack from Double Culverine can also be combined with the Python technique which is able to chase enemies like missiles. This attack will not stop before hitting the target.
9. Jet Culverine
Unlike the previous technique, this time Luffy uses it when he transforms into Snakeman. This attack is much faster than the previous attack. Luffy can fire this attack at high speed without being noticed by the opponent.
Every time Luffy's arm bounces in the air and changes direction, the speed of this attack will continue to increase until it reaches its maximum stage. Because of that, this attack is very difficult to avoid, even by Katakuri's class who are capable of using high-level kenbunshoku.
8. Rhino Schneider
If the previous attack used Luffy's hand, this time's attack is Luffy's leg attack which is very strong. Luffy uses Rhino Schneider while in the air by taking advantage of his elasticity to fly.
Luffy will go to the target very quickly. After that, he pulled his legs into his body and let out a powerful attack. This technique is proven to be able to make Doflamingo bounce in the air.
7. Kong Gun
This technique is a stronger and deadlier version of Gomu Gomu no Bullet. In addition, this technique is the first technique demonstrated by Luffy when he first changed into Gear 4th mode.
The main advantage of this technique is a very strong raw attack. This technique allows Luffy to hit the target very hard to deal fatal damage to the opponent. This technique is proven to be able to surpass Katakuri's Haki defense.
6. Leo Bazooka
Gear 4th's next strongest technique is the Leo Bazooka technique. This attack is a stronger form than Gomu Gomu no Bazooka which is Luffy's mainstay attack. This attack was first used against Doflamingo.
When using this technique, Luffy will head towards the opponent quickly and attack the opponent with both hands. The effect of this attack is proven to be able to make Doflamingo bounce very far and give him a fatal wound.
5. Black Mamba
Black Mamba is one of Luffy's strongest techniques when in Snakeman mode. This attack emphasizes speed over strength. At first glance, this technique is very similar to the Gomu Gomu no Gatling Gun.
This attack may be similar to Jet Culverine, but this attack is very fast and difficult to avoid because Luffy's hand movements are difficult to avoid. Even though he was able to block some of this attack, Katakuri was in fact overwhelmed when dealing with this technique.
4. Kong Organ
This technique was first used by Luffy in his fight against Charlotte Cracker. The Kong Organ Technique is a stronger version of the Kong Gun. When using this technique, Luffy will attack the opponent with both hands continuously.
Uniquely, this technique creates an illusion as if Luffy has two additional pairs of arms. Apart from that, this technique proved very effective for destroying several very strong Cracker biscuits at one time.
3. Cannonball
Gomu Gomu no Cannonball is a very unique Luffy technique because this technique can only be used in Tankman Full Version mode. However, the opponent must first strike Luffy's stomach for this technique to be activated.
When the opponent attacks his stomach, Luffy will absorb the opponent into his stomach by taking advantage of his body's elasticity. Once the opponent is trapped, Luffy will throw the opponent with maximum damage like a cannon attack. This technique is proven to be able to K.O Cracker in one strike.
2. King Cobra
So far, the King Cobra Technique is Luffy's strongest in Snakeman. This attack is more or less similar to Jet Culverin. It's just that, Luffy adds air to his arms so that his attack power becomes stronger and deadlier.
The power of this attack proved to be able to make Katakuri unconscious for some time. In the anime version, Luffy's arm will be covered in snake-like smoke before King Cobra's attack hits its target.
1.King Kong Gun
The King Kong Gun can probably be said to be Luffy's craziest technique and weighs heavily on his body. This technique is a combination of Gear 4th and Gear 3rd which makes this attack much stronger than the previous Gear 4th attack.
Even though this attack requires preparation and is very draining of energy, it is worth it because this technique has a very terrible attack power. With a giant fist imbued with haki, Luffy was able to beat Doflamingo and end the battle in an instant. After mastering Ryo, Luffy was able to make this technique stronger than before.
