Ever since the debut of Luffy's Gear 5 transformation in episode 1071 of the One Piece anime, fans have been eagerly awaiting the possibility of more power-ups for the beloved protagonist.

The Gear 5 form, which grants Luffy incredible abilities and freedom to manipulate his surroundings, has left viewers wondering what other surprises series creator Eiichiro Oda has in store.

Viral Facebook Post Claims Luffy's Gear 6 Will Debut in Elbaf Arc, Sparking Skepticism Among Fans

On July 28, a Facebook page under the name of Eiichiro Oda posted a statement claiming that Luffy's Gear 6 would be revealed in the upcoming Elbaf Arc, which is expected to be the next major story in the One Piece saga.

The post quickly went viral, racking up over 80,000 likes within hours of its publication. However, skepticism has arisen regarding the authenticity of the post, as there is no confirmation that the Facebook profile genuinely belongs to Eiichiro Oda himself.

The incident highlights a growing trend of fake social media accounts posing as famous manga creators.

Recently, the official Twitter account for the Naruto franchise had to clarify that series creator Masashi Kishimoto does not maintain any social media presence after a misleading post from a fake Masashi Kishimoto Twitter page gained significant traction.

Fans debate the possibility of Luffy's Gear 6 amid speculation and skepticism over viral Facebook post

Luffy himself has stated that Gear 5 represents his ultimate form, granting him the ability to manifest anything he can imagine. This statement has led some fans to question whether a Gear 6 transformation is necessary or even likely.

However, others speculate that as Luffy continues to explore and master his Nika form, he may discover new abilities that could potentially evolve into a Gear 6.

Since One Piece remains an ongoing series, the possibility of a Gear 6 cannot be completely ruled out. Eiichiro Oda, known for his creative twists and character developments, may decide to introduce new powers to keep the story fresh and engaging. However, until official confirmation from Oda or the One Piece staff, fans should approach alleged leaks and rumors with a healthy dose of skepticism.

For now, One Piece enthusiasts are eagerly awaiting the next chapter of the series, hoping for a resolution to the current story arc and hints at what's to come for Luffy and his crew. While the viral Facebook post has undoubtedly generated excitement, its credibility remains questionable at best.
