Crocodile only lost to Luffy because he was weak at the time:

1. because he wasn't fighting people who were his level
2. because he was withholding 2 years worth of rain for an entire country. that has to slow you down

We still have atleast 5-7 chapters of this fight. 4th gear is probably the halfway point.

luffy's fights have never ended right after attaining a power up. This gear is going to put him on even footing or give him a slight advantage.

Not a chance in hell this fight takes more than 2 chapters... Arc has already gone on forever. Though in small quantity and broken up throughout the arc, Luffy and Dofla have already clashed a few times. The hype level is at the maximum, both fighters are torn the fuck up inside and out. Gear four is going to push it over the edge and Luffy is going to win. 1 Chapter for Gear four hype/showing it off and it's awesomness and 1 Chapter more for the fight to end after.

Maybe DD will be what Blueno was to second gear xD. Someone who seemed to be strong and than boom gets completely rekt. Big Mom or Kaidou will be like Lucci where they actually put gear fourth to the full test and DD is just going to be fodder for it now. I mean DD is to strong for this to happen but I personally would find it thoroughly amusing if right after Gear 4 DD just gets stomped out EZ Mode.

I disagree completely. Bluenoe vs Gear Second was a demonstration of what a "gear" was. Lucchi was the final boss there, just like DD is now.

Now that we're familiar with the concept of "Gear", we need someone the level and renown of DD to fully appreciate the new Gear.

DD won't get stomped at all, he has taken a lot of damage but he's not done for yet.

Lets be real, the 'final' boss in the near future is either Kaido or Big Mom. If Luffy doesn't make short work of Doflamingo, what the hell can he do to either of them?

he pulled gear three out to fight Lucchi though, hes pulling out G4 to finish Dofla

He couldn't even damage DD on his own using G2, G3 and haki, he needed Law to get a hit in that actually hurt DD. So I wonder what sort of power up you think G4 will be. Like, genuinely curious, what do you expect G4 to be like?

He felt them but they didn't do enough damage to impair him in any way. They didn't slow him down at all, despite him being fucked up on the inside by Law.

Big mom will never be an opponent for the straw hats, first of all she could be Lola's mom and theres Sanji too.

Ask yourself why Sanji is offscreen dealing with Big Mom.... well obviously hes cooking for her !!

and Luffy isnt impaired either whats your point? i mean it wasnt right until the end of Croc VS Luffy that Croc started slowing down, right before he got KOd

i mean Whitebeard got half his face blown off and didnt slow down people in OP are tough as haki infused seastone nails

Ask yourself why Sanji is offscreen dealing with Big Mom.... well obviously hes cooking for her !!

I don't think much of Sanji but Nami's relation to Lola is pretty big.

Thinking about gear fourth again, some people have been speculating it's something to do with full body haki which I don't buy as that's not really another 'gear' for Luffy. BUT, what if Gear fourth is a full body Hawk type thing. Like he literally just coats himself fully in fucking fire for his attacks?

A pretty far fetched hypothesis yes and I honestly don't think it would be it, but it could be pretty damn cool and is something different as right now basically everyone is just thinking about muscle and haki related ideas.

Doflamingo gets wrecked by Kaidou. If G4 only puts Luffy on even grounds or slightly beter than Doflamingo, he would have no chance against Kaidou (barring a Dragonball saiyan zenkai powerup or fairy tail natsu powerup), who he seems to be about to fight in the near future. But then again, a quick and easy stomp would definitely be an anticlimatic ending to an arc with what was beyond any doubt the best villain so far.

I predict that Luffy would easily be able to overpower Doflamingo physically, but Doflamingo still has some trickery left (an ace up his sleeve) to make the fight/ending last a few more chapters. I doubt that while all of the Donquixote pirates were in combat, all Doflamingo and Trebol were doing was waiting still for Law and Luffy to reach them. They must have been doing something in the period of time that Luffy and Law were running to the Doflamingo

Doflamingo can probably destroy Kaido 1v1 just that he would have to go up against an army of 400 zoans. Doffy's fruit is so overpowered that he could easily hold the position of "Pirate King" if he just had an army the size of a Yonku's backing him.
