Not really. Luffy used G5 against lucci instantly. He didn't even used G5 against Kizaru from the start.
Old gaban was clowning base luffy who wasn't even trying to fight gaban for most part.
Old garp blitzed Kuzan legit in a serious battle.
Luffy wasn't even calm to use Future Sight, he flexed on Base Luffy who's trash without any advanced haki anyway.
Luffy pulling Gear 5th against Gabum is the same way He pulled it to Lucci :
Against Lucci, for Vegapunk to talk about it.
Against Gabum, so he can see it thus he mentioned the white form.
As for the tag team, they did it to finish him off very fast like what Rayleigh ans Gabum wanted to do to YC level Oden or the case of Shikki.
Good chapter tbh, and notice how Redon said Zoro used his swords with black lightning and no mention of smokes which means he didn't use KoH lmao.
KoH Asura > KoH Santōry
uu ( three dragon swords ) > KoH Santōry
u >
Adv CoC Adv CoA Santōryu > Hell Flame Santōryu > Base Santōryu
Not looking good for Gabum.
