You see, Luffy is lucky and special because death will always follow him everywhere, but it's in the form of his deceased fun big brother

Edit: Other version of this AMV

Something something Luffy laughing through his teeth (shishishi!) as if it's spilling out of him, something too great for his body to contain rushing up and pushing its way out through the cracks in his teeth vs Joyboy's laugh being a traditional hahaha that demands an open mouth and throat and lungs, the kind of laugh that's all percussion and booming air, unrestrained and uncontained and free

Also something something Gear 2 (which is Luffy making his heart beat faster and louder as he circulates blood more quickly through his body) making his body heat to the point of steam rising from his skin, and Gear 5 using the Gear 2 pose and making his heart beat the Drums of Liberation and condensing that steam into clouds, and shishishi being a hissing sound like steam escaping through a vent, and the prevalent themes of fire and heat and the way steam only makes that kind of noise if it had been under extreme pressure and how that pressure is usually caused by high temperatures

Something something Luffy swallowed the sun as a child and it sits burning in his belly and he laughs like steam hissing its way out of a vent because his joy is that of a god's and his body is a very small vessel for such awesome power

And something something I don't really have anything coherent to say here this is just me wildly overthinking and drawing connections where there probably aren't any but like you get it. The themes.

nika boy… HES ALMOST HERE

The fact that only Luffy could use this fruit to it's true potential. If he didn't believe in his freedom, if he wasn't a silly little guy, he would not be able to awaken the fruit. It's the most ridiculous power, because it's so unserious and that's why it fits Luffy perfectly and no one else.

And of course, before him only Joyboy was able to awaken this power too.
