Five new Devil Fruits in a single chapter is a One Piece record
Devil Fruits are one of One Piece’s most iconic features and one of the two main sources of supernatural powers in the series (the other being Haki). The Devil Fruit is also one of the biggest mysteries in the series, only beginning to be revealed recently, after the introduction of the leading expert in the field, Dr. Vegapunk. Normally, a Devil Fruit user’s specific abilities are kept secret by Oda until the last possible time, but he’s been a lot more profligate lately, perhaps because of the pace of the fruit. The story has grown considerably since the birth of One Piece. last story.
The Blackbeard Pirates have all eaten Devil Fruits, making them one of the most dangerous groups in the One Piece world. The only Blackbeard Captain whose powers remain a mystery is Lafitte, and Oda is perhaps revealing that for a significant moment in the story. The chapter also gives fans more information about SWORD, a secret branch of the Navy, described as “wild card commandos” who act without waiting for permission from their superiors. This is why they quickly mobilized to save their Koby companion, after Garp appeared to recruit them for the mission. Both Kujaku and Grus have powerful and original Devil Fruit powers, but they pale in comparison to the incredible Haki Conqueror powers shown by Garp in this chapter.
It’s possible that displaying so many Devil Fruits together would actually highlight the power of Garp’s Conqueror Haki attack even more, as many characters in the series (including Kaido) have stated declares that Haki is the superior form of power needed to truly be at the top of the One Piece world. However, new year reveal Devil fruit in a single chapter is a record for A pieceand it really shows the change in pacing that has occurred since Oda announced that the story has entered its final stages (which will still take years to complete).
