Half Circle Backward-Attack (Can also be done in air): **Gum-Gum Rocket:** Luffy will stretch his arm to grab something off-screen and then pulls himself towards where he stretched; this move is great to avoid attacks but if the opponent does so happen to accidently get caught by Luffy's grab; Luffy will pull himself towards the opponent instead.

### Hyper Combos

While he is like this all standard H attacks are replaced with a gigantic version of the regular attack while all special moves input each only use one move but they are very powerful.

Forward-Heavy: **Gum-Gum Giant Pistol:** The same as the regular **Gum-Gum Pistol**; only this time it is a giant fist that inflicts more damage to the opponent and causes a hard knockback and a greater wall bounce than the jet version.

Down-Forward-Attack: **Gum-Gum Giant Hammer:** Luffy will grab both his opponent with his two giant fists, if successfully Luffy will then start to slam the opponent to the floor like a hammer to a nail five times before letting go by slamming them one last time.

Forward-Down-Forward-Attack: **Gum-Gum Elephant Gatling:** Luffy will inflate his fists into giant balls and hardens them with Haki and unleashes a massive barrage of heavy damage inflicting punches to the opponent (15 hits in total) and causes a hard knockback.

He'll stay like this for 16 seconds.

Forward-Down-Forward-Attack X2 (Level 3): **Gum-Gum King Kong Gun:** Luffy will stretch his leg out to the side to perform Gum-Gum Whip, if he connects a cutscene will occur.

The opponent will be send flying into the air as Luffy suddenly blows an incredible amount of air into his body and muscle structure transforming him into Gear Fourth form.

He'll then jump and stretch his arms out at the opponent as he performs a stronger barrage of punches with his hardened fists (16 hits, can be increased through button mashing) before he suddenly unleashes an uppercut attack with one of his punches to send the opponent flying into the air once more.

Luffy falls to the ground but suddenly bounces back up even higher until he is just above the opponent, suddenly Luffy blows large amount of air into his arm drastically increasing it's size and then pulls his fist back to prepare a punch shouting out "Gum-Gum..." He'll then unleash the punch saying "KING KONG GUUUUUUN!!!" the punch sends the opponent crashing into the ground inflicting tons of damage, as the opponent crashes to the ground it is suddenly surrounded by a city that gets crumpled and destroyed around them.

Luffy returns to normal and the super ends here.
