One Piece Episode 1073 continues the extraordinary battle between Monkey D. Luffy in his Gear 5 (fifth) form against the mighty Kaido. Luffy’s new power is the most ridiculous in the world of One Piece, and his battle with Kaido proves this to be true with incredibly anime scenes.
Luffy was believed to have been defeated in One Piece Episode 1071, but he quickly rose from his defeat and harnessed the full power of the Zoan type fruit known as Hito Hito no Mi: Model Nika. He ascended into his Gear 5 form, which quickly overpowers Kaido with ease. In One Piece Episode 1072, Luffy brings his full might to bear against Kaido as the two decide to hold back no longer.
