Panic erupts across Dressrosa as the Birdcage contracts. Civilians scream 'WAAA AAAH!' and 'KYAAH!' while fleeing. A man yells, 'RUN! MAKE FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICTS!' and 'THE LINE OF DEATH DRAWS EVER NEARER!' The country itself shrinks as buildings collapse.

In the lower panels, an elderly man cries, 'THIS IS BAD! GET THE COLLAPSED GUYS UP ON THEIR FEET! WE AIN'T GONNA JUST SIT HERE AND WAIT FOR DEATH TO COME! ROGER!'

Luffy's face twists with intense focus as his body begins to inflate dramatically. "GEAR FOURTHI" someone exclaims in shock. "ZUZUZU" rumbles as his limbs swell. In a rapid sequence, Luffy bounces high into the air with a "FWOO", then lands powerfully with a "HAAAAA" and "TOSS", his massive form now coated in black haki patterns. A close-up reveals his enormous arm as he declares, "MUSCLE BALLOON!" with a resounding "K!!!" Doflamingo watches with narrowed eyes from the side.

Doflamingo wipes his face and laughs, "I THOUGHT YOU HAD SOME CRAZY ACE UP YOUR SLEEVE, BUT... GEEZ, THIS ISN'T EVEN FUNNY ANYMORE, FUFUFU!" He questions, "JUST HOW DESPERATE ARE YOU!I" as Luffy bounces wildly. Luffy explains, "YOU JUST USED THE ELASTICITY OF RUBBER TO GET BOUNCIER! FOR TWO YEARS, I FOUGHT WILD BEASTS... TO POUND THEM INTO SUBMISSION, THIS SIZE AND THIS ELASTICITY WERE NECESSARY. AS BIG AS MONSTERS." Doflamingo retorts, "HAVE YOUR WAY ANYMORE." Luffy lands in a powerful stance and announces, "GEAR FOURTH. BOUND MAN!" with heavy impact sounds.

Luffy's fist coils back with "TREMBLE TREMBLE" as he unleashes a devastating strike. "KONG" echoes as his arm extends. Doflamingo's eyes bulge in disbelief, "SUCH OBSCENE POWER!!" and "!!!!I" The massive punch named "GOMU GOMU NO... KONG GUN!" smashes into Doflamingo with a colossal "BANG" and "GUN!", obliterating buildings in a massive explosion of debris and smoke.

Explosions rip through the city as a massive impact sends debris flying. A fighter is slammed hard, crying out "GAHH!" while another leopard-spotted warrior reels from a blow, gasping "GACK! UUGH!" In the chaos below, a huge serpentine form crashes down amid collapsing towers. Onlookers stare in shock: "HE JUST CAME FLYING DOWN OUT OF THE SKY!" "WHAT HAPPENED!I" "WH-WHA... IT'S DOFLA-MINGO!" A wounded figure wheezes "HAA" and "WHEEZE" as smoke and rubble fill the air.

Screams of "KYAAAH!" echo through the streets. Close-ups show narrowed eyes watching the destruction. A figure notes "CENTRAL DISTRICT, HUH... THAT'S ONE HELLUVA RECOIL..."

Luffy rockets through the sky using his rubber powers, shocking witnesses: "HE CAN USE HIS ELASTICITY TO FLY, TOO!I" In rapid sequence he coils, spins, and launches forward with "SHWOOP" sound effects and impact lines.

Doflamingo roars "RHINO" and "SCHNEI-DER!" as a massive dropkick slams into his face, sending him flying amid a huge explosion marked "ドゴォォン". Bystanders yell "WHO IS THAT HUGE GUY!I HE JUST DROPKICKED THE HELL OUT OF DOFLAMINGO'S FACE!" "ANOTHER ONE SHOWED UP!" Luffy bounces away like a ball with motion lines and "ビュン" effects while the city reels from the impact.

Luffy's massive Gear Fourth form towers over the ruined city streets as he slams a colossal punch into the ground. The impact shatters stone towers and sends debris flying while the narrator explains, "HE HARDENED HIS SKIN WITH BUSOSHOKU... AND WITH THAT INCREASE IN TENSILE STRENGTH, HIS POWER'S INCREASED MANY TIMES OVER!" A close-up shows Doflamingo's furious grin as he snarls, "DAMN IT! THAT PUNK...HE'S STILL NOTHING BUT PLAIN OLD RUBBER!" Luffy stretches his arm back and launches a powerful strike, shouting "GOMU GOMU NO" as the blow connects with explosive force.

Luffy rockets forward with blinding speed, the panel marked "FWISH!!" as he unleashes a twisting black limb. The attack is labeled "CULVERIN!" while a translator note reads "A CULVERIN IS A TYPE OF CANNON. KANJI READS AS PYTHON CANNON." Doflamingo counters with his string powers, yelling "ATHLETE THREAD!" as the threads slice through the air and clash violently with Luffy's stretching limb in a massive explosion of force and smoke.

Doflamingo is sent flying backward, crashing through the air as he yells "I DON'T THINK SO!" while Luffy's hardened form overwhelms him.

Chapter 784 summary

The Birdcage closes in on Dressrosa as citizens scream and flee while buildings are dragged and sliced apart. On the royal plateau Bartolomeo urges the group to move the collapsed people to safety and Zoro declares he will stop the cage. Viola explains that the shrinking epicenter is shifting toward the palace where Doflamingo stands. Near the sunflower fields Law receives treatment from the dwarves while Cavendish notes that defeating Doflamingo will make them the center of a worldwide storm. Luffy bites his arm inflates with Muscle Balloon and transforms into the massive Haki-coated Gear Fourth Bound Man form. He launches Kong Gun to blast Doflamingo through the palace ruins and into the central district then follows with Rhino Schneider to send him bouncing through the city. Doflamingo analyzes the enhanced elasticity and Haki reinforcement before Luffy fires Culverin whose arm snakes around the counterattack and strikes again. The chapter closes as the bending punch lands on Doflamingo.
