Gear Second

Lucci stands with his back to the viewer as a voice asks, "YOUR TECHNIQUE WILL EVOLVEI" Smoke and debris rise from the ground where Luffy crouches. A speech bubble questions "GEAR"I Large onomatopoeia reads ゴゴゴゴゴゴゴ and SHUUU.... The next panel erupts with massive impact lettering ドオンッ！！ as Luffy's body dramatically enlarges and steams. His legs swell massively while steam pours from his limbs. Lucci watches silently from the side with a small "..." bubble. Motion lines and steam clouds fill the scene as Luffy's transformation begins.

Luffy's face appears close-up with a fierce grin, declaring "AM GLAD I MET YOU HERE." Lucci's face looms large, questioning "— WHAT'RE YOU TRYING TO BLUFFI ARE YOU TRYING TO IMITATE A STEAM ENGINEI EMITING STEAM FROM YOUR BODY..." Luffy stretches his arm with "GOMU GOMU" while small "ギィ..." sounds appear. He launches forward with "SORU" as Lucci watches. A close-up shows Luffy's intense eyes and a speech bubble: "...HEH... TRY TO AIM YOUR BEST AND HIT ME...!!!" Lucci responds with "ARE YOU TRYING TO SNIPE ME...I YOU'RE JUST GIVING ME A CHANCE TO ESCAPE."

Massive impact lettering ドガァァァァン！！！ explodes across the page as Luffy's stretched fist slams into Lucci at point-blank range. Lucci's face twists in shock with "!!!" and "KUH!!!" Steam and debris burst outward. Multiple panels show the devastating collision, with Lucci's body recoiling violently. A large speech bubble announces "JET PISTOL!!!!" as the attack connects. Lucci's expression shows complete surprise while Luffy's arm remains extended through the impact. The force of the blow dominates the entire spread.

Luffy rockets forward in a massive mid-air strike, leg extended with explosive force. A colossal impact erupts as his foot connects, sending shockwaves and debris flying. "WHOA!!!I" someone shouts amid the blast. The opponent is hurled backward with a resounding "STAMP!!!" and a huge "ドカン!!!" SFX. The figure crashes through rubble, grunting "GA HA...!!!" as the ground shatters beneath the overwhelming blow.

Luffy stands panting heavily on the ruined plaza, sweat flying. "... NO WAY...!!! NO... THERE'S NO DOUBT!!!" he realizes, staring at the distant figure. "THAT GUY SURELY...!" The opponent, breathing hard with "HAA..." and "ガララ...", closes in using blinding speed. Close-ups show Luffy's intense eyes as he declares, "I'M GLAD I MET YOU HERE." The narration notes the foe "HAS LEARNED HOW TO USE 'SORU'...!!!!" and "AND IS ABLE TO MOVE AROUND WITH IT...!!!" A sudden "ドカン!" erupts as the enemy vanishes through an "AIR DOOR", leaving only a fading "!" on the tiles.

The opponent crouches low, gasping "HAA..." while thinking "THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING...!!!" Sweat pours down his face. Internal monologue races: "COULD BEAT 'ROKUSHIKI' USERS' 'SPEED'...!!! THERE'S NO WAY WE CAN LOSE!!!" and "...NO, EVEN BEFORE THE 'SORU', HE USED JUST NOW... HIS BODY HAS GOTTEN STRONG ENOUGH TO USE THE TECHNIQUE EASILY..." Luffy appears in the distance. The foe concludes, "IF I MAKE HIS BODY A 'DOOR' AND STOP HIS MOVEMENT, I SHOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE HIM OUT, WITH NO PROBLEM. I'LL GO IN FULL POWER AND SETTLE THIS IN AN INSTANT...!!!" as Luffy's silhouette stands amid smoke and "オオオ..." effects. "HE DISAPPEARED..." echoes.

Luffy bursts from the "DOOR DOOR" portal with a "ブッ...!!!" SFX, emerging at high speed. The opponent reacts in shock. Luffy grins, "I GOT THE HANG OF IT AND I'M SO GLAD TO KNOW THAT THERE'S A WAY TO MOVE LIKE THAT." He adds, "I SAW YOU KICK THE GROUND MORE THAN 10 TIMES IN A MOMENT BEFORE YOU MOVED." The foe counters with "WHEN YOU... MOVED SO FAST, AS IF YOU DISAPPEARED," then activates "GOU" "TEKKA I" while thinking "WITH THE STRONGEST 'TEKKA I'!!! I'LL TAKE THE ATTACK!!!" Luffy stretches his arm, shouting "GOMU GOMU" as a massive "ズオオオ!!!" impact follows. A note reads: "NOTE: GOU MEANS STRONG OR BRAVE."

Luffy rockets forward in a blur of motion, both fists cocked back as he unleashes a devastating double punch. The massive impact sends shockwaves through the air with the cry "JET BAZOOKA!!!!" The enormous opponent reels violently from the strike, body twisting under the force. Smaller panels capture Luffy’s intense glare and gritted teeth mid-attack, the opponent’s skull-like face twisting in pain, and surrounding debris flying. Sound effects explode across the page with heavy impacts and motion lines emphasizing the raw power of the blow.

Luffy wipes sweat from his face and declares, "... THEN I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING EVEN MORE INTERESTING." The towering opponent stands firm, replying with a sizzling sound effect "SIZZLE..." and noting "... YOU ARE REALLY TOUGH..." Luffy’s expression hardens as he mutters "GNN..." Close-ups show his focused eyes and the opponent’s stance. Luffy then announces "GEAR... WATCH THIS..." A massive sound effect "ドサッ...!!!!" erupts as the opponent is suddenly slammed to the ground, legs kicking upward. Luffy stands over the fallen figure, breathing heavily with wide eyes.

The defeated opponent lies sprawled on the tiled floor amid clouds of dust, marked by a large sound effect "ド". Luffy stands nearby, swaying slightly with "HAA..." and "HAA!!!" A small "SWAY" label appears near him. In close-up Luffy reflects, "... OH WELL, I DON'T CARE..." and "I GUESS MY BODY HASN'T GOTTEN USED TO IT YET. I'M DEAD TIRED..." He clutches his chest while thinking about his body. The scene shifts to a wide view of Enies Lobby’s towering buildings and cliffs with dramatic sound effects "ドドド..." and panicked cries "わあああああ" echoing across the fortress.

Panic erupts across Enies Lobby as soldiers shout "WE'LL BE CRUSHED!!!" "SHIT, WHAT'S GOING ON!I" and "FIRE! FIRE THE CANNON!!!" A map labels the island’s key locations: Enies Lobby Main Island, Tower of Justice, Court-House, Main Island Front Gate, and Main Gate. Franky charges forward yelling "ME, TOO—!!! YOU WON'T STOP ME!!!" while smashing through guards who cry "PUNY GUARDS!!!" and "OO-WAA AAH!!!" Other fighters join the assault, one declaring "YO, BROS!! COURTHOUSE IS RIGHT THERE!!!" and "IT'S CALLED A WARRIOR'S FATE!!!" Laughter and disbelief fill the air: "GAHA HAHA HA!" "I REALLY CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!!" "THESE TROUBLESOME GATEKEEPERS ARE NOW OUR FRIENDS!I"

Chaos erupts at the "COURT-HOUSE" front plaza as pirates clash with defenders. Voices shout, "AND WE CAN'T ENTER!!" "BUT!! THERE'S A FROG AT THE CENTER DOOR" "THE PIRATES ARE IN THE COURTHOUSE!!!" "WHAT'RE YOU DOINGI GET INSIDE ALREADY—!!!" A massive frog-like creature appears amid the fighting. "A FROG!I" Defenders yell, "HOLD THEM OFF UNTIL THE DRAWBRIDGE LOWERS!!!" "IF THIS GUARD IS BROKEN THROUGH, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WILL RUSH IN!!!" "DON'T LET ANYBODY IN, YOKOZUNA! STAND FIRM!!!" The giant frog roars "GERO!!!" while smashing through the area with heavy impacts "ドゴォォ!!ドゴォ!!ドゴォ!!". Below, more fighters struggle on the drawbridge stairs: "NO MATTER WHAT, PULL THE DRAWBRIDGE UP-STAIRS!!" "WE ONLY NEED ONE PERSON TO ARRIVE AT THE TOP!!" Swords clash with loud "GAKIIIIN!!!" sounds as the battle rages near the "COURT-HOUSE, RIGHT TOWER".

The fight intensifies around the towers. A woman with a long nose shouts, "MAKE SURE TO GET THE STRAW HATS TO THE 'TOWER OF JUSTICE' BY LOWERING THE DRAWBRIDGE!!!" Nearby, a star-patterned fighter yells, "DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME!!!" and "MOZU ANE-SAN!!!". Signs mark "COURT-HOUSE, LEFT TOWER" and "COURT-HOUSE, COURT". Defenders cry, "NUE!!! DON'T GET IN OUR WAY—!!!" and "STOP THEM, DON'T LET THEM GO FURTHER!!!". A large bandaged man with a wide mouth roars, "MORE IMPORTANTLY, IS FRANKY BRO SAFE AND SOUND!!!I" "WHY WOULD WE ANSWER YOU!!I" "WHA AAT!!I". The melee continues with swords and chaos as fighters push toward the upper levels.

Inside the courthouse, a blond man in a black coat shouts, "SHITTY BASTARDS, I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE'RE STILL SO MANY OF THEM INSIDE!!!" "KILL THE PIRATES—!!!" "ATTACK!!!". Signs indicate "COURT-HOUSE, COURT, UPSTAIRS". A scuffle breaks out as someone is tossed: "HEY, DON'T TOSS THEM THIS WAY, CHOPPER." A large round creature yells "GET OUTTA THE WAY—!!" with impact sounds "ブン!!" "ブン!!" "ブン!!" and "BUHAA!!!". A chained figure declares "GUILTY." twice while swinging weapons. Another man asks, "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANTI". Below, the massive Enies Lobby building looms with a sign "TOWER OF JUSTICE (DESTINATION)" as voices command, "THAT'S RIGHT. JUST DO WHAT I SAID!!!" "BRING FRANKY AND NICO ROBIN TO THE GATE OF JUSTICE!!!I".

At the Gate of Justice area, masked CP9 agents discuss plans: "ONCE WE PASS THROUGH THE 'GATE OF JUSTICE,' THEY CAN'T TOUCH US ANY MORE!!!" "WE NEED TO TAKE AWAY THE PIRATES' MAIN OBJECTIVE!!!" "THAT'S FINE!! WE'LL JUST WAIT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE GATE!!" "DEPARTING FROM THE 'GATE OF JUSTICE' IS NOT READY" "HOWEVER, SIR, THE ARMED CONVOY,". One agent adds, "ALSO, GATHER ALL 'CP9' MEMBERS IMMEDIATELY!!!". A long-haired man laughs "WAHAHAHA-HAHAHA!!!" and says, "I'LL TAKE THE TIME TO CORNER THE PIRATES LATER ON!!". Another orders, "NOW, STAND UP, GUYS!! LET US EMBARK QUICKLY ON A TRIP TO THE HELL!!". Near the main island front gate, a woman with a cigarette remarks, "JUST WATCH, CHIMNEY... WHETHER THEY SURVIVE OR NOT," while giants chant "NYAA NYAA NYAA" and "NGA GA GA GA GA" with laughter. Narration notes the world will be astounded by an unprecedented event.

Luffy's head tilts back with a fierce grin as massive impact lines and debris explode around Enies Lobby's towering gates. A voice declares, "WILL BE KNOWN THROUGHOUT THE WORLD." Another states, "THAT STRAW HAT BRAT'S NAME... WHEN THIS BATTLE IS OVER..." The massive building facade labeled "ENIES LOBBY" cracks violently under the force. Luffy stands atop a high platform and shouts, "I'VE COME FOR YOU!!!!" Below, the Straw Hats react in shock: Luffy roars with mouth wide open, Chopper's eyes bulge in panic, Nami stares with sweat drops, and Sanji yells, "HE'S HERE." A small caption reads "LUFFY..." and the page ends with "GEAR" (END).
