If not Gear 2/3…then what

kljs

were you expecting Luffy to pull out to get stronger? (means that what power/moves upgrade were you expecting prior to Gears being introduced by Oda) or (if you think Gears sucks and was expecting something different). Please list them.

I have thought of this long time ago…... here is my list..

1. eat another devil fruit (render useless now)
2. get a weapon (wishful thinking)
3. learn a technique from someone that he mets and helped.
4. his rubber body touched some weird stuff and gets a reaction.
5. actual training, train together with Zoro.
6. timeskip like Narutard..... training arc....

Pesola

Like for now, he just makes up techicues while he actualy fights, efective, nor absolutely stupid and still working.

If he'd eat second DF, he'd blow up, or what ever happens to a person who eats second DF….

He can't really use weapons, proven in Arlong Park when he picked up few swords. He said it himself, he cant use sword, so I think he cant use any other weapons either. A gun perhaps, no, he cant aim that good.

I'm not sure if there is any kind of wierd stuff, expect waterstone(or what ever it was...), known to have any effect with DF users.

Training? You seen Luffy train? Weel, he DID train before he left to become King of the pirates.

Timeskip? Like Naruto? NO! Oda is way too orginal to do that. :P

The only thing i can think of is if the gomu gomu no mie turned out to be a logia fruit instead of a paramecia. Then he could control rubber outside of his body. I mean, the other paramecia are just interesting things to do to your body, Luffy's is a complete elemental change. But, if he was able to, he'd probably have figured it out by now, so Oda will hopefully come up with something better than, oh, i don't know, GEAR 1,239…

thanks for scrutinizing my list…. now, can we see your list?

He'd have beaten Lucci without as much trouble as he had if he could sustain Gear Second. If he could find a way to do that, he'd at least be better off against the higher-up enemies.

Well heres what I think:

1. Most of the SH especiall luffy will learn and/or master some of the techniques that CP9 used.. This would Definetly add to there arsenal..
This would increase the speed and there defense alot.. Especially if they can get there own variations of it..

2. Zoro will most likely get a new really powerful sword, possibly one infused with a DF or something like that.. What ever the sword I see it giving him new attack abilities..

3. Nami really can improve that much, only with the clima-tacts abilities//

4. Chopper needs to get a control over his moster point, this would give him such a power jump its not even funny.. This would really raise his bar in to match zoros and sanjis..

5. Luffy… Im really really not sure what he can do.. I mean besides master the 6 CP9 abilites, and being able to use the gears longer.. Mabye a possible 4th gear which gives the strength of gear 3 and the speed of gear 2??? thats all i can see happening..,

I also really thought that luffy would get another DF which wouild increase his power but that is now overrulled but someone else on the SH might get one??..

Mabye he'll get like DF or special material in like the form of a glove which would make his hits harder?
