## One Piece Chapter 784, pages 9-11: Gear Fourth - Chapter: 784 - Pages: 9-11 - Characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Donquixote Doflamingo ### Summary Page 9: Luffy completes the inflated form, bouncing in place with heavy spring-like SFX. His body is huge, round, and coated in Busoshoku Haki across the arms and chest. Doflamingo looks at the new shape and mocks him: "Put on a little weight there, haven't you?" Luffy only pants and keeps bouncing, while Doflamingo continues to study the form. The page emphasizes the strange visual contrast of Gear Fourth: it looks almost ridiculous at first, but it radiates power and tension. Page 10: Doflamingo laughs that this is not even funny anymore and says he thought Luffy had some crazy ace up his sleeve, but all he did was use rubber's elasticity to get bouncier. He asks, "Just how desperate are you?" Luffy explains that for two years he fought wild beasts as big as monsters, and to pound them into submission this size and elasticity were necessary. He says, "I ain't gonna let you have your way anymore." Then he names the form: "Gear Fourth! Bound Man!" A note clarifies that "Bound" means bounce. Page 11: Luffy launches the first real Gear Fourth attack: "Gomu Gomu no... Kong Gun!" His fist compresses inward into his arm, making Doflamingo realize, "What the... his fist sunk into his body..." Then the arm fires forward like a cannon. Doflamingo is struck by the explosive punch and thinks, "Such obscene power!" The blow sends him blasting through the palace ruins with a huge impact, proving instantly that Gear Fourth is far beyond Luffy's previous attacks in speed and force.
