Dont be surprised if he start destroying and attacking giants too.. usually these kinds of uncontrolled transformations. are made to showcase super powers.. disregarding Enemies or Allies
Yeah I wouldn't be surprised by that but honestly I don't want to see another rampaging monkey. Espesially not at this very moment.
I hope you’re right and that he wakes up halfway through to reassert himself. In Wano, it did seem like he blanked for a second and was more in it for the fun, but he immediately made it clear it was still him just as you said. If I’m to guess where Oda is going with this, I think Luffy was removed from this fight so that when the situation in the Underworld becomes critical, with either Loki or Hajrudin about to die, he’ll swoop in and save the day. I’m also guessing that Imu will call him Nika this time instead of Joyboy, and then he’ll declare that he is Luffy and fight on par with him.
On these uncontrolled Rampages?.. i dont think so... and i doubt he could use any Rubber or Toon Like nika powers.. he is just a giant Monkey in a blind rage against whateaver it picks his interests..is not Luffy anymore.. same as Kid goku turning into Ozaru...

It's a very classic trope to have an uncontrolled rage transformation early on. But I'm having an uncontrolled rage transform for how long all this gets dragged on. Why even go there now?
Yeah I agree on that. This would make sense when G5 got awakened first time in Wano but it feels out of place now. Sure, Luffy blacked out for a second like I mentioned it before but this thing right now seem completly diffrent. Why let Luffy go on uncontrolable rampage or even show us possibility that Luffy may become mindless animal like those guards at Impel Down at such advanced stage of the story? I mean I'm sure things will be fine but seriously, why now?
I think Oda will do the great battle - it's a good way to put Luffy vs Loki - since Imu won't be 100% defeated right now, and killingham and Sommers defeat will be the trigger for his departure to Mary Geoise - then , the last danger will be the God of Destructuon Nika, we could even have a straw hat vs Luffy right now !
But so far.. even hybrid Loki doesnt seems to be enought and he is insanelyyy powerful.. ¿ What more can he do by himself while Luffy is away ?
Yeah, I'm sure Luffy will come back to his senses soon enough. Because if he won't Loki may die here due to fact that he's deffinetly at his limit. But alternatively since Imu seemed to show interest in fighting Luffy despit fact that he also said he need to go back it may happen that Luffy will "get the zoomies" out on him and then return to normal. Then Luffy will finally learn that he's in fact a zoan which may start short training arc. You know, because Luffy need to learn how to better use his power so he won't lose control again. Mainly because it's diffrent power than he thought it is. Btw, it's such a shame that it was Franky who seen mural not Luffy. Mayby it would clear things out even for rubbery knucklehead like him.
Maybe Gks deaths.. or the simple fact of Imu's reaching a time limit can cause a weakening or opening for LokiYeah, I'm sure Luffy will come back to his senses soon enough.

Hybrid Loki wasn't made to win over Imu, but like LOKI himself, it was made to show us the real power of the F.V of One Piece verse - but - Hybrid Loki + S.H could be ENOUGHT to stop a rampage Luffy in his 2 stage of Geear 5, specially after Luffy got almost killed in 1188-1189 - - after all elbaf arc - if you look closely Oda is saving the S.H (Jinbe specially i could say) and the Lily weapon could be actually something that helps LUFFY take control over his fruit actually - so in my opnion it will be this sequence
