Official Move Approval III

[Monkey D. Luffy]

Tier 2 Powered-Up Form (1500 OM)

Gear Third (Malleability)
Luffy initiates this form by corking his mouth with his thumb, biting into his joint, and blowing air into the opening. He is then able to transfer the air through his entire body to inflate the size of his limbs to monstrous proportions. Coupled with his already-strong physiology, this provides him a larger area of attack with greater strength, but sacrifices mobility.

The air-pumped bones are incredibly hard, similar to an inflated car tire, so much so that bullets ricochet off his skin. Luffy can control where the air is stored within his limbs, permitting him to stretch them as normal. Most of his techniques in this mode retain the names of his regular attacks with "Gigant" added to emphasize their colossal size and power.

Gomu Gomu Elephant Gun
(Physical Strength, Ranged Proficiency, Malleability, Gomu Gomu Pistol/Gomu Gomu Bullet, Gear Third)

A Haki enhanced version of Gomu Gomu Gigant Pistol. After activating Gear Third, Luffy augments his fist with Armament Haki in order to vulcanize it. He then heaves an elastic-snapped punch into the enemy with grand destructive force. Requires five seconds to prepare the attack and leaves Luffy open whilst executing.

Gomu Gomu Grizzly Magnum
(Physical Strength, Ranged Proficiency, Malleability, Gomu Gomu Bazooka, Gear Third)

A Haki enhanced version of Gomu Gomu Gigant Bazooka. Luffy activates Gear Third on both fists simultaneously, then runs towards the target with arms extending behind him. Charging forth at great speed he implements Armament Haki into his fists to vulcanize them before retracting and hurls a double open-palm strike into the enemy. Requires ten seconds to prepare and typically sends weaker foes soaring.

Gomu Gomu Elephant Gatling (Physical Strength, Ranged Proficiency, Area Attack Proficiency, Malleability, Gomu Gomu Gatling, Gear Third)

After enlarging and imbuing both arms with Armament Haki in a similar manner as Gomu Gomu Elephant Gun, Luffy performs his Gomu Gomu Gatling, which, with the heavily enforced arms, causes massive widespread damage capable of tearing apart a massive ship. Those unfortunate enough to be caught within his attack range will be battered to a pulp for up to twenty seconds. This technique exhausts Luffy considerably and expends a large portion of his haki reserves.
