Warning: Manga spoilers ahead!As Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece progressively approaches its finish using the manga within its final saga, recent developments have remaining fans wondering in which the story will mind next. The present Egghead Island arc has showcased Luffy’s final form ‘Gear 5’ for that second time, after defeating Kaido in the finish from the Wano arc.
Even though it is obvious to determine that Gear Five is amazingly effective, using the Hito Hito No Mi being considered as potentially probably the most effective fruit within the series by a few fans, questions still remain.

5 Shortened Existence
With the previous Gears Luffy has utilized particularly Gear Second and equipment 4th, many fans is going to be aware to the fact that these had results of progressively shortening Luffy’s life time. Given its stress on his body, these forms were only used when essential coming facing enemies who have been like-for-like. In Luffy’s final showdown with Kaido, there’s a brief moment that shows Luffy powering lower and searching very fatigued and old in the base form.
Although this could be due to the lengthy and difficult-fought against fight with Kaido on Onigashima and the in place into it in advance, it might also imply Gear Five has got the greatest stress on Luffy’s body in the. This is extremely much like Gear Third in the pre-time skip phase which left Luffy inside a baby form after utilizing it, however this may grow to be more dangerous.
4 Disease
Talking about a shortened existence, as the former ‘Pirate King’ Gol D. Roger’s dying originated from an execution after turning themself in, it was only because of him learning about the condition he’d which may eventually result in his demise. Because it presently stands, it’s made obvious that Roger wasn’t a Demon Fruit user which means the stated disease didn’t originate from anything associated with overexerting his body for abilities, but because of the huge and apparent parallels between Luffy and Roger, it wouldn’t come as a surprise to determine exactly the same factor happen again.
While the probability of this happening to Luffy is low thinking about the implication of Luffy to be the ‘one to exceed the Roger Pirates’ which implies another ending for Luffy and all of those other Straw Hats, it’s not completely from the equation. Fans knows from Oda’s utilization of foreshadowing and parallels between figures usually mean greater than many might think, and it wouldn’t be not reasonable to assume the Demon Fruit’s qualities getting an everlasting impact on Luffy.
3 Shorter Endurance In Gears
As pointed out above by Kaido throughout his grapple with Kaido, Luffy’s endurance was pressed to the limits which was reasonable thinking about the last models of the bout and the encounter with Ulti before reaching the rooftop. With Gear 4th, Luffy still struggles to keep his form and it is not able to make use of Haki for 10 mins once powering lower. With Gear Five, this really is clearly already different as Luffy could instantly switch on once again after his fatigued.
Since the finish of Wano and also the climax of Luffy against Kaido, Oda hasn’t yet revealed or implied that there’s any major downside as a direct consequence of using Gear Five, but the likelihood of there being huge downsides are extremely much still possible. This is greatly determined by the problem and just how lengthy the power can be used, which was especially prevalent within the pre-time skip phase as a direct consequence of Luffy’s grapple with Lucci and the lack of ability to maneuver.
2 Physical Strain In Base Form
Although this most likely wouldn’t be an issue in the present stage from the story, thinking about Luffy presently being within peak condition physically also it to be the final saga many happen to be awaiting, it might greatly get caught up for an older Luffy. When the ending from the story is placed to contain any kind of time skip to showcase the Straw Hats years later as veterans, one of the most apparent downsides will be a stress on Luffy’s physicality.
There’s been an apparent pattern put down by Oda in One Piece, that makes it obvious the old figures aren’t as strong because they were in the past, for example Garp and Rayleigh. If Luffy is much more active in the utilization of Gears that are stated to shorten his lifespan, there’s no telling what impact this might dress in his body in a long time.
1 Looks Altered
Gear Five gives Luffy the opportunity to fight freely and with little constraint as proven in the bout with Kaido and today Take advantage of Lucci. What this means is Luffy could be hit with deadly attacks that now results in his looks developing whether form of the weapon, or showcases the way he was hit.
That can be a is just lower towards the qualities from the Hito Hito No Mi Model Nika fruit and Luffy’s abilities of shaping the atmosphere to his liking, possibly consequently might be Luffy appearing older than he’s, that could connect with why he looked incredibly drained and much more as an old man after powering lower against Kaido.
