These One Piece characters are truly the best when it comes to handling Devil Fruits.
The Final Saga of One Piece has started on a high note. The Egghead arc has provided fans with plenty of revelations that pertain to the biggest names in the world. It also had multiple exhilarating fights that kept fans on the edge of their seats.
From these battles, one thing was evident: the Final Saga is going to surpass all previous Sagas in One Piece. With so many weak characters already being weeded out, the stakes will continue to increase. Naturally, only the strongest individuals with the best Devil Fruit abilities will survive to the very end.
7. Boa Hancock
Devil Fruit: Mero Mero no Mi
Boa Hancock is the queen of Amazon Lily and the captain of the Kuja Pirates. Due to the trauma from her childhood, Hancock has become mean and conceited. She doesn’t trust anyone, especially men.
Boa Hancock is blessed with the Mero Mero no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit with the power to turn any item (living or non-living) to stone. Blackbeard personally visited Amazon Lily in the hopes of stealing the Devil Fruit. Luckily, the Yonko was stopped by Rayleigh.
6. Aokiji
Devil Fruit: Hie Hie no Mi
Aokiji is one of the Ten Titanic Captains of the Blackbeard Pirates. He joined the crew after being courted by Blackbeard. Due to his time as an Admiral, Aokiji accumulated a ton of fighting experience, which helped him be ready for all kinds of situations.
Aokiji ate the Hie Hie no Mi, which is a Logia-type Devil Fruit. It gives him the power to freeze anything in his path, plus he can block all sorts of attacks. In the Egghead arc, he fought against Money D. Garp and ultimately, defeated the Vice Admiral.
5. Sakazuki
Devil Fruit: Magu Magu no Mi
Sakazuki secured the role of the Fleet Admiral after beating Aokiji in Punk Hazard. The fight lasted for several days before coming to a conclusion. Afterward, Aokiji resigned from his position and left the Marines. Meanwhile, Sakazuki became the leader of the Marines.
Sakazuki possesses the Magu Magu no Mi, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to create and control magma at will. He displayed mastery over his Devil Fruit in Marineford, where he slaughtered and injured countless pirates.
4. Monkey D. Luffy
Devil Fruit: Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika
Monkey D. Luffy is the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates and one of the Four Emperors of the Sea. Luffy has undergone many arduous trials, and he has managed to come out on top in most of them. A key reason behind his continued success has been his Devil Fruit.
Luffy possesses the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows him to use the powers of the Sun God, Nika. Initially, Luffy couldn’t even land a punch properly, but gradually, he got better at handling his powers. In the Wano Country arc, he awakened his Devil Fruit and used it to send Kaidi into oblivion. Clearly, Luffy is one of the strongest Devil Fruit users in One Piece.
3. Blackbeard
Devil Fruits: Yami Yami no Mi and Gura Gura no Mi
Marshall D. Teach or Blackbeard is the most notorious pirate active in One Piece. He shot to fame after handing over Ace to the Marines, which granted him a seat amongst the Shichibukai. Blackbeard used this to his advantage and invaded Impel Down where he freed some of the most dangerous pirates in history. Eventually, he went to Marineford where he stole his second Devil Fruit.
Blackbeard is currently in possession of two Devil Fruits– Yami Yami no Mi and Gura Gura no Mi. Blackbeard has incredible control over them, which implies that he has awakened both. Fans already saw Blackbeard dispatch Law in the Egghead arc, and there is a good chance that he will be involved frequently in the Final Saga.
2. Five Elders
Devil Fruits: Unnamed Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits
The Five Elders are publicly known as the leaders of the World Government, but in reality, they are pawns of Imu. While they may look old, they are in fact hardened warriors who are capable of challenging the most powerful fighters in One Piece.
In the Egghead arc, the Five Elders demonstrated their abilities. Each of them seems to have access to Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruits, which greatly enhances their overall physical strength. With the Final Saga still far from over, the upcoming arcs will give the audience a better idea of the abilities of the Five Elders.
1. Imu
Devil Fruit: Unknown
Imu is the only person who sits on the Empty Throne, making them the true sovereign of the world. Imu has been revealed to be a member of the Nerona Family, one of the twenty nations that laid the foundation of the World Government. It is unknown how exactly Imu managed to snag the Empty Throne, but it won’t be long before Oda reveals the answer to this question.
When it comes to Devil Fruit, Imu seems to have a pretty potent one. However, the true nature of their power remains. With things heating up in the Final Saga, there is every chance that Imu’s powers will soon be disclosed.
