The most difficult part of turning One Piece into a live-action series was recreati ng each character's distinct and varied skills, particularly Luffy's rubber-like abilities. To accomplish this, the production crew combined computer-generated imagery (CGI) with real-life effects, employing stunt doubles, wires, and harnesses to replicate Luffy's jumping and stretching motions. The Gum-Gum Pistol and Gum-Gum Gatling, two of Luffy's more severe attacks, were made possible by the use of computer-generated imagery (CGI), which also improved the realism and fluidity of Luffy's body. The production crew conferred with Oda, the original One Piece author, to guarantee that the visual effects aligned with his vision and aesthetic.
