After several years, the One Piece fandom will again experience a fight between Monkey D. Luffy and Kizaru. But this time, the scenario will have changed a bit. Luffy will have mastered three forms of Haki and become a Yonko.

But the main change will be the awakening of his Devil Fruit, Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika. Fans have had horrific experiences from the Sabaody Archipelago arc, but it might be different this time.

During his fight against Kaido, Gear 5 Luffy did several unthinkable things. He was seen to travel faster than lightning and change the properties of things around him. One of the exciting things was when he grabbed hold of lightning like Tarzan does with prop roots.

It showed that the lightning’s properties were also changed. Besides that, his mastering of Ryuo and learning to coat his attacks in Conqueror’s Haki have significantly upgraded his arsenal.

Coming to Kizaru, he is one of the strongest characters since the anime’s inception. He has mastered his Devil fruit abilities and can use Armament Haki. Being an Admiral, there is no bounds to his power. Previously, he alone defeated the Strawhats.

The Strawhats are pretty fearful of him. But with Gear 5 Luffy coming into play, it will be interesting to see what happens at the Egghead arc.

Luffy vs Kizaru Is A Hot Topic For Debate For The Fans

The expectations seemed to have skyrocketed when Gear 5 Luffy vs Kizaru was announced. One YouTuber, @tamirsverse, posted a video describing Monkey D. Luffy’s newfound powers and claimed that battle against the Yellow Admiral would be a piece of cake and Luffy would dog walk him just like Makima did with Denji.

After this video was posted, tons of comments came raining down like thunder. One of the comments read, “Reporting in: Kizaru does not get dog walked.” Several others agreed with this comment. The claim about the fight being a dog walk has divided the fanbase. Some believe it to be easy after Gear 5, while some claim it to be challenging.

Few said Kizaru is a beast and should not be looked down on. On the other hand, some fans claim that Luffy’s Bajrang Gun could destroy Kizaru. While there is a difference in opinion, one thing that everyone agrees is that the Egghead arc won’t be the repetition of the Sabaody Archipelago arc. The Egghead arc starts airing from January 7, 2024.

One Piece is available on Crunchyroll and Netflix.
