Gear 2: Luffy's Speed

Introduced during the Water 7 Saga, Gear 2 allows Luffy to accelerate his blood flow, increasing his speed and power. He developed this form after being inspired by the fast movements of the CP9 members.

Gear 4: Tankman, Snakeman and Bounceman

Developed during his training in Ruskaina, Gear 4 grants Luffy multiple forms, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. Among them are Tankman for defense, Snakeman for speed, and Bounceman for balance between power and speed.
