It's unlikely Luffy will get a distinct "Gear 6," as most fans and theories suggest Gear 5 (Nika form) is his ultimate power-up, but he'll likely achieve deeper mastery of Gear 5, potentially through advanced Haki, stamina improvements, or unique Gear 5 sub-forms (like Gear 4's Boundman/Snakeman), rather than a completely new numbered Gear, as Oda focuses on mastering his current peak power for the final battles.

Why is Luffy immune to Boa Hancock?

Luffy is immune to Boa Hancock's Mero Mero no Mi (Love-Love Fruit) because his simple, pure heart and obliviousness to lust and attraction mean he doesn't harbor the "dirty thoughts" or feelings of lust required for her power to work, which relies on the target's desire for her. His immunity stems from his genuine innocence, lack of romantic interest (focused on being Pirate King), and seeing people for who they are inside, not just their looks, making him the first person to resist her charm.
