In the final stage of the fight between Toriko, Luffy and Goku, Goku transforms into Super Saiyan 2 and Luffy activates his Busoshoku Kokka Gear Third, but Toriko is distinctly lacking in a "super mode". However, Toriko instead uses a stronger version of his Intimidation technique to make his arms muscles grow to abnormal proportions, something never seen in the anime nor the manga comic.
