I think the awaken thing isn't as bad as everyone makes it to be. It reminds me of crocodile's ability. He could control sand and with his one hand he could turn things into sand.

Technically wasn't diamate already awakened? He could turn himself into a flag and anything around him, same with the rupture guy. Thinking of it now it seems that most of DF's crew could manipulate the environment around them along with themselves. This also explains why trebol could turn his clothes into mucus.

I don't know if luffy will make things around him rubbery, but maybe if he had a weapon he could make it into rubber eventually? If you take that idea to its extreme then yea.... he could make buildings rubber.

That being said wouldn't chopper be the ultimate zoan counter? He could make things around him human, removing their zoan form.

I expect awakening to be different between DFs (at least DF type). The minotaur guards in Impel Down were stated to be awakened zoans and they didn't gain any special powers, they were just better/tougher.

I think awakened zoans are just giant beasts. Like Chopper's monster form. You go brain dead if you can't control it but you get tremendous power.

An awakened paramecia seems on a whole other level than an awakened zoan. Wonder if Doflamingo will get back up and show us more awakened op shit, or if this is just Oda giving us a glimpse of the future. I'd fancy the later, though Doflamingo definitely isn't done yet.

And Burgess is stealing all the artificial devil fruits as expected.


It seems to me that Chopper is an example of a fruit user tinkering with his fruit to get in touch with his awakened form (like Impel Down guards).


Awakened Devil Fruits is a really interesting concept, love it. I think that Aokiji and Akainu are two examples of awakened fruit users. They transformed Punk Hazard into what it currently is, they altered their environment in the same manner as DD before getting rekt. By the looks of it, a classic devil fruit can alter the user. An awakened fruit can alter the environment.

It's a cool way for DD to go down, he shows his trump card which in reality is something we didn't even know about. Very cool. Makes Garp all the more cooler.

I'm also happy that Luffy's gear fourth has a time limit. Otherwise he'd just shit on everyone.

I don't think Luffy's fruit is awakened though.

Haki is supposed to be the only possible counter to Logia type fruits. Take that away and we're back to square pre-time skip

Well Doffy makes it very much sound like Luffy's fruit isn't awakened so I'd agree with you.

He got his arms up to block but a bunch of attacks still got him good.

Remember how i predicted that Mingo still has an Ace up his sleeve and then it came true this week? He could make unlimited clones now, when he can turn his environment into strings he's now has unlimited strings to make stuffs with. Just hope luffy didn't blasted all his remaining strength into a Mingo clone, The white shield was blocking LUffy's vision and luffy has shown he's observation haki can't distinguish between clone and read Mingo.

Has there been a single serious opponent that didn't have an ace up his sleeve?

the reason Shranks didn't fight the bandits in the bar is the same reason why Coby was screaming for people to stop fighting in Marine Fort, and the same reason why Luffy and Zoro didn't fight Bellamy and his crew inside the bar. And it is the same damn reason for each and every single epic fights in one piece that took place.

This is one of Oda's way in trying to teach kids that there are things real men must not do, and there are things real men must do. Real men do not fight and risk their friend's lives to protect their own honor, real men don't fight for honor, they only fight to protect what means the most to them.

I totally agree. This is what men do.

it probably has something to do with being able to rearrange the molecular structure of things to mimic your paramecia type

like how we eat food that is overcooked or undercooked and we describe it as mushy/rubbery/grainy etc. lol

Wow, that's really cool. That actually helps explain why Punk Hazard became half fire half ice, because of the awakening of Devil Fruits like DD was able to do. I mean, we'd always thought that it was just because Aokiji and Akainu were badasses, but awakening makes sense too.

I'm kind of annoyed it's taking so long for zoro and co to do something. The big cage is almost fully closed.

With all the hints about luffy overusing haki, i get the feeling that gear 4's setback will be about Luffy not beeing able to use haki for some time.
At the top of the game, we play by diferent rules.

Hmm, I feel like Luffy is going to just about clinch the 1v1, but the burgess will turn up and Sabo will have to intervene. Fujitora probably heads to help stop the bird cage? Not sure, will be interesting to see what Fuji boy makes of King Riku's public endorsement of Luffy.
