One Piece Episode 1073 continues the anime’s storyline and presents the third episode featuring Gear 5, a powerful transformation of Luffy. In the previous episode, we witnessed Luffy’s incredible abilities as he used Gear Five against Kaido. This transformation showcases Luffy’s peak strength and entertains viewers.
Gear 5 transformation and Luffy’s Devil Fruit awakening represent the user’s determination and willpower. Kaido’s attacks don’t seem to affect Luffy as he battles with a playful demeanor.
There’s an interesting twist about Luffy’s Gum-Gum abilities that the series revealed, showing that his Devil Fruit is unique and holds extraordinary power. Gear 5 was an idea that Eiichiro Oda, the creator, had nurtured for some time. It’s meant to bring a nostalgic feel reminiscent of the 90s while allowing Oda to experiment with his creativity.
Fans eagerly anticipate how Gear 5 will continue to unfold after the latest episode, where Luffy amusingly engages with Kaido in their rubbery battle. A preview for One Piece Episode 1073 is available, giving us a glimpse of what’s to come.
In addition to the preview, we’ll share more details about the episode, including its release date, time, and where to watch it.
What Happened in One Piece Episode 1072
In One Piece Episode 1072, “The New Emperor of the Sea,” Luffy continues his intense battle against Kaido using his recently unleashed Gear 5 transformation. This new form makes Luffy agile enough to dodge Kaido’s attacks effortlessly, making his body as flexible as rubber. Kaido is left puzzled by Luffy’s newfound powers and starts to doubt who Luffy is.
As the fight unfolds, Luffy lands a mighty blow on Kaido, causing him to crash in a heavily wounded state. Despite his injuries, Kaido doesn’t give up. He rises again, insisting that Luffy cannot be the legendary Joy Boy. In response, Luffy clarifies that he is not Joy Boy but is determined to defeat Kaido and achieve his dream of becoming the Pirate King.
