Gomu Gomu no Rocket is one of Monkey D. Luffy's earliest techniques in Eiichiro Oda's One Piece, which began as a manga in 1997 and as an anime in 1999. Luffy grabs a distant point with his rubber arms, stretches back, then slingshots his whole body forward. The attack name became a staple soundboard clip alongside other famous named move shouts like Hadouken, because the call itself signals the launch before the action lands. Fans reuse it for slingshot gags, esports plays and edits where momentum matters more than realism.
