Baryon Mode is a one-of-a-kind transformation available to Kurama via its jinchuriki. The Will of Fire appears to be embodied by Baryon Mode, with Naruto’s chakra cloak including the sign and greatly resembling the statue in the Konoha Cemetery. Naruto’s and Kurama’s chakra are consumed as raw materials in a process comparable to nuclear fusion to create a new sort of energy. Both Isshiki and Sasuke were taken aback by the rise of chakra, which the latter described as immense.

Gear 5 is an awakened Gomu Gomu no Mi that strengthens the user’s rubbery body. It also gives the person the capacity to alter and transform their surroundings, akin to when a Paramecia awakens. This skill was obtained by Luffy during his final battle with Kaidou on Onigashima. Gear 5 increases the user’s rubber-like body’s strength and freedom, allowing them to fight as they want. As a result, the user is supposed to become the Warrior of Liberation, delivering joy and freedom to those around them, and the power of this fruit is characterized as “the most ridiculous power in the world.”

3. Goku’s Perfected Ultra Instinct

Perfected Ultra Instinct is a divine transformation that combines the whole power of Autonomous Ultra Instinct. The user’s power is increased by two or three times that of their previous strongest transformation. It is also said to be more powerful than the Gods of Destruction. The form is said to have godly divine status and the ability to channel divine ki.  This form retains its strengthening impact on Goku’s Saiyan Power ability, allowing him to increase his speed, power, and overall efficiency.

4. Vasto Lorde Ichigo

Ichigo reawakened in his fearsome Vasto Lord form after appearing to die as a result of a lethal strike to his chest. This is Ichigo’s true hollow form, and it is among the strongest hollows in the series. While inside, he easily overcame Ulquiorra, outmaneuvering his opponent and unleashing strong strikes one after the other.

The change of Gon Freecss into his adult form during his combat with Neferpitou was startling. He finally learns how to control Nen, a powerful energy that may be used for a number of tasks. Gon’s adult form is one that he unlocks when he is pushed to his breaking point. This form grants him great power, but it is quite taxing on his body. In this state, Gon demolishes one of the series’ most powerful foes like a paper doll. It’s a chilling peek of what Gon could become.

6. Black Asta

Black Asta is a spell that counteracts magic. This form is drawn to powerful magic, which improves his strength and speed while also allowing him the capacity to fly. This form also clears his mind of all uncertainties and extraneous thoughts, improving his attention and mental clarity. Asta does not have to actively react to an assault because the form automatically targets strong magic, but he also has no control over what it targets and can be led away from his opponent.
