Blackbeard Crew's New Devil Fruits! - One Piece Discussion | Tekking101

Burgess had to have gotten the fruit recently, the point of him being in the tournament in dressrosa was so that burgess could eat the mera mera no mi

True but I personally think the fruit he got now fits him much more than the Mera Mera No Mi.

I know this isn't what I believe because in the real world if you look up Blackbeard's lore he had several souls in the real world it's pretty interesting so I think in one piece that's why he can eat more than one fruit I don't think he can pass the power on to somebody what if he could give the ability for anybody to eat more than one devil fruit though just a thought

I think people who complain about them being to simple are just spoiled. Most anime characters get like 2-5 different attacks. Meanwhile in one piece almost every relevant character has like 10 different attacks. Comes up with great and unique fruits.

@@RocksD.Quebec They may not be as elaborate as the other fruits we have seen, but that does not make them bad or boring in my eyes. I merely agreed that Oda likely came up with them a long time ago.

For Burgess for example, his power seems to fit him quite well.

[@dowfreak7]

If it's about awakening, I'd think the awakening is teleporting stuff that ISN'T yourself. Because most warping abilities are about yourself. You can only take the stuff with you that you touch or that's on you. So teleporting Burgess somewhere else WITHOUT following, would violate those basic tp rules and thus require an awakening. But there are tons of rules surrounding any kind of teleportation, so we'll have to see what Oda decides on in the end.

All confirmed BBP devil fruits Marshall D. Teach - Dark-Dark Fruit and Tremor Tremor Fruit Jesus Burgess - Strong Strong Fruit - bestows onto the user abnormal physical strength, such as the ability to lift up and throw gigantic objects. Shiryuu - Clear Clear Fruit - primary ability is to make the user invisible, but the user can also selectively turn anything they are in contact with invisible as well Van Augur - Warp Warp Fruit - gives the user the power of teleportation. They can warp from place to place instantaneously, as well as teleport other people Avalo Pizarro - Island Island Fruit - Pizzaro can effect one island at the time, but he has complete control over everything on it - except living things Laffite - unnamed Mythical Zoan Catarina Devon - Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Nine Tailed Fox - The main strength of this fruit is that it transforms the user into a mythological kitsune, complete the nine large fox tails. As such, they gain all the abilities of one, including the ability to disguise themselves as anyone they like, allowing them to impersonate them. The clothing of the target person can also be imitated during the transformation San Juan Wolf - Inflation Inflation Fruit - Wolf can control the size of his body Vasco Shot - Alcohol Alcohol Fruit - Vasco can make people drunk by making everything contain Alcohol even air Doc Q - Sick-Sick Fruit - allows the user to create diseases that can hinder an opponent. Stronger - Horse-Horse Fruit, Pegasus Model - This fruit allows the eater to transform into a Pegasus or Pegasus hybrid at will. This grants them the power of flight.

Observation haki plus Warp-warp fruit sounds like a perfect combo to me. I think the biggest factors IMO that decide how good the ability would be in combat would be how frequently can it be used, and can it be used to teleport targets that are far away to the user (For example: could Van Auger teleport Burgess back to the ship now that he is on the island?).

[@christopersantiago6009]

[@spencergallucci5309]

He probably needs to touch what he wants to warp, and possibly the awakening is teleporting things he can see, but people with strong haki can negate it

[@spencergallucci5309]

@@christopersantiago6009 that would be awesome, and a good development for Usopp

[@Anthintendo]

So here’s a fun idea for Auger’s fruit. We know that some DF powers can be combined with Haki to make the more effective. For instance, Enel was able to enhance his Observation Haki (Mantra) with his Rumble-Rumble Fruit to basically “hear” everything that was happening on Angel Island at all times. As well, he could use this enhanced Observation Haki to aim his lightning strikes to hit anyone from anywhere, such as when he blasted Conis’s dad. So, what if Auger can do something similar? Burgess has Armament Haki now, so what if Auger has Observation Haki? Now, Observation Haki doesn’t 100% work the same way for everyone. At a basic level, like what Usopp has, a person can “see” a specific target from a long distance away. Burgess can already do that with his scope, so I’m going to assume his Observation Haki is more developed or advanced than the basics. Speaking of advanced Observation Haki: Katakuri and Luffy can “see” a few seconds into the future. Issho can sense his surroundings (like Daredevil) and even the emotions of people (something Queen Otohime was also able to do). So taking a creative liberty, I’m imaging that Auger has a “circle” of Observation Haki around him, maybe a ten foot radius. So, he knows exactly what’s in his circle at all times, and can combine this with his fruit to “instantly” teleport himself or objects (assuming his power works on inanimate objects) to any spot in his circle. Like, imagine Usopp has a straight line of sight kill shot. He fires, and the shot speeds towards Auger’s head. Then, at the literal last moment, Auger teleports himself an inch out of the spot where the shot would’ve hit him.

I think "simple" is the keyword for the blackbeard pirates Oda uses, I think it is the point he is going for. On the one side we have these really basic combination like give Burgess the standard strong guy a fruit that makes him even stronger - give Van Auger the sniper the ability to snipe even better - he literary gave o horse the ability to be a better horse / pegasus -give the doctor a fruit that gives him the ability to give others diseases like a bad/mad doctor -give the sword fighter who stealthes behind the enemy the ability to stealth better -etc. you get what i mean Meanwhile we have on the otherside all the "creative" powers - a normal person who has a body made out of rubber / now cartoon abilites - a swordsman who uses threesword style with one sword in his mouth - a cook who only fights with his legs - a sniper who uses only a slingshot and plants - a navigator who controls the weather with a stick - a doctor who is a reindeer and a human at the same time - etc. I think this is the idea between the blackbeard pirates and the strawhat pirates: It is creative freedom against bland/ calculated freedom like Oda said the core idea of freedom of Luffy and Blackbeard are the same because they both have the will of D. but that is the thing that makes them diffrent. In DnD terms it like the min maxer (Blackbeard) vs the "crazy" player (Luffy) who thinks a sorcerer using only his dagger without using much magic that sound like fun. It is both the right way to play but it seams like the min maxer is the stonger person of them both, but what Oda is maybe going for is that the min maxer/ Blackbeard is to much tunnel visoned on his way and get beaten by the "crazy person" / luffy who uses his creativity and all the funny / stupid / whatever ideas to beat him. Thats at least what I belive is going to happen and that why I think Oda gave them these Devil Fruits that seam very bland.

This also works fairly well with the original gag with the two characters where both ended up being passed out in a moment's notice when they are being engaged with and has to go out of their way to wake up the other. Stronger could in theory take it a step further and possibly save Doc Q from dying. We don't know how far Oda will want to push that connection.

[@brandondiotte2104]

Likelihood is Law will survive and probably pressganged into joining Blackbeard's crew much like he did with Moria, but will likely require his crew being tortured. Now this being Oda and One Piece there is only one form of torture I can see befitting Law and the Heart Pirates: Amber Lead Syndrome. Imagine Law being held down by Blackbeard while Doc Q. infects the rest with the disease and being forced to watch as white patches begin to form on their skin while the pain racks their bodies knowing the only chance he will have to save them being to join up with Blackbeard.

What if Blackbeard knows that devil fruits only reincarnate through specific fruits and they just have those fruits on hand when they get ready to steal the powers of another devil fruit users

[@billygalvez3766]

I think a limitation of the teransportation fruit is how much you can use it. Like for every mile you teletransport u need to wait a second. So if he tp 5 miles away, he cant tp immediately after.

[@malektheone1017]

I think devil fruits are special haki manifiested as fruits born from people obsession with an element/animal/object. Ex:someone who wants to free and make everyone smile due to his extreme dedication after his death his haki incarnated as a fruit that grants special power. Kinda like hatsu from hxh.

Depending on the rules on the Teleportation fruit Van Augur is a scary powerful scout. Drop your colleague off, say for example Aokiji at Big Mom's, then tell them to meet back up in 8 hours (assuming there's some significant stamina loss by jumping across the world), and there you go intel gathering and asset collection super easy.

[@clifford1920]

Imagine if Oda uses Doc Q's Sick Sick fruit to make certain SBS question into reality. Such as Straw Hats genderswap, Straw Hats as their animal forms, & whatever else Oda could come up with.

[@tylermorrison9775]

The Blackbeard Pirates have a very stacked amount of abilities on hand right now. Teleportation, Diseases, Invisibility, Ice, Shape-shifting, flight, gigantification, shockwaves, and "darkness". it seems like each fruit is meant to play a very specific role in some sort of grand design that only BB knows at this point, as BB is seeking out these fruits and possibly assigning each one to a specific commander who will play a specific role, almost like spec-ing out a party in an RPG. I also agree with the idea of Kaido's words being some very strong foreshadowing to how the strawhats will defeat the blackbeard pirates, that Haki will be the final deciding factor

[@MatthesKy]

To me the warp-warp fruit is probably similar to Nightcrawler's power from X-men. Not necessarily in the sense of traveling through an alternate dimension, although that would be awesome and almost give it merit to being a stronger mirror-mirror fruit. But rather it's probably a combination of he needs to see where he's teleporting to or have a familiarity with the location that he's teleporting to. It would also be able to keep the momentum of any object or person he teleports, so rather than him teleporting to different places while shooting he remains stationary and can teleport his shots to appear from different directions.

[@snakejazz]

Anyone saying Jesus Burgess's DF is boring just doesn't know how to think deeper than the surface and doesn't understand Oda in the least bit. The fact that the BB crew are so specific to which DF they acquire and consume specifically to capitalize their already existing personal strengths to fortify the pursuit of their end goals is precisely what makes BB so incredibly dangerous. BB is a researcher, a historian, an incredibly smart tactician. His smarts alone are what brought him and his crew this far.

[@Flaming_Saturn]

Theory for Vasco Shot’s potential DF: Since Blackbeard is getting his titanic captains all really powerful devil fruits that suit their abilities… what if Vasco Shot got Magellan’s Poison-Poison Fruit? He’d literally become so intoxicated that he could LITERALLY use poison. Like, Belching it out or… something, I don’t know.

[@animandatsukinousagi9682]

I love how everyone is commenting about the devil fruits and I'm just going to talk about Mythology. On the part about Perseus, Atlas and Hercules: Hercules and Perseus (beyond both being sons of Zeus) they are related. Perseus is Hercules ancestor because Perseus and Andromeda are the parents of Electryon, and he is the father of Alcmene, who is the mother of Hercules. So, Zeus was with his own great-granddaughter, which, let's be honest, if she was hot is TOTALLY something he would do.

[@josephreagan9545]

In pop culture the only way to beat a sniper is to find their location and then corner them...Van Auger is now immune to that weakness. He is a sniper you can never reach. Remember on fishman island how Usopp was able to not just predict where his target would go but he manipulated his target to go into his pre-laid trap.... I think Usopp will do something similar with Van Auger and will be one of the only non-yonko level people in the world that will be capable of defeating Van-Auger. Usopp will have Aizen level "just as planned" moment.

[@Chaos_The_Kidd]

What if Van Augur can warp his bullets? Hes a amazing sniper but there are still super fast people on the Grand line and people who can see the future (at least by a few seconds). He could fire a bullet, warp it next to the target, and hit a weak point before they can react. And or just use it as trick shots on shots he could make anyways but mixes it up with his shot coming in from the side to keep the enemy off balance. He could also give perfect covering fire. His allies would never be in his way. If someone manages to move Blackbeard or Burgess into the way of his bullet he can warp it so it comes in from the other side and hits the person they're fighting.

[@DrewADuckProductions]

The strength fruit couldn’t have come out in the beginning of the story because it would’ve just been made obsolete by everyone else’s natural strength. It had to be held off until the end game, when the relative final power levels have been established

[@catriamflockentanz]

4:40 Maybe it doesn't even need to be a direct takeover? My theory: Due to the Yami Yami No Mi's unique ability to "draw in" other Devilfruit Powers the Devilfruit of the killed person cannot reincarnate into some applicable fruit everywhere in the world, but instead has to reincarnate into the nearest possible fruit and the Blackbeard Pirates bring the fruit necessary. (Or a bunch of them if they aren't sure.) 6:36 The Smiles really did a number on the story. If you are a Zoan User, but not a Mythical or an Ancient Variant nobody is gonna take you seriously at this point... 17:49 I didn't even remember that Urouge has a Devilfruit. That Power isn't all that creative either though. It's basically the same as the Semblance (unique Aura Power one is born with) of Yang Xiao Long from RWBY or the Revenge Counter of Meliodas from Seven Deadly Sins. 24:20 The question I have is less how von Auger's Warps work per se but whether they are "chainable". Or does he has a cadence time between individual warps? -> Just think about how powerful Kuroko's (A certain Scientific Railgun) ability to chain her teleportation endlessly makes her... If she was bound to open and close portals for example she wouldn't be as powerful due to losing a lot of the snappiness. Though Blink (X-Men; the Gifted to be specific) showed that using portals has its advantages too. 25:06 By the way: Teleportation and Warping are *not* the same thing. The actual "travel" via Teleportation takes place outside of our four-dimensional world. Warping stays within our realm the whole time. 28:24 It's still an absolute waste though. Why give an Animal its own species' Zoan? Remember Pierre? Also a Pegasus by having a bird eat the Horse Horse Fruit (Model Something). Stronger didn't even attain the forms that usually come with Zoans. Because a Horse-Pegasus Hybrid isn't that different from a full Pegasus or a full normal Horse, is it? 33:55 "They [Law's Crew] didn't do anything during Wano." - Sure, saving _the Main Character_ from Drowning wasn't important whatsoever.

[@gasaiyuno6021]

I'd actually like to object and say that Bargass most likely ate the fruit during Wano and the time we didn't see him, like the rest of them did. They specifically mention gathering these fruits and really getting on that grind during The Straw Hat's isolation in Wano when they really had total free reign over the world. And if Bargass had eaten the fruit before Wano then say at Dressrosa it would have been made apparent during his fight with Sabo or AT LEAST during the Colosseum fight. Sabo was able to destroy the ring with just his Haki, Bargass never even thought to do that yet in this chapter we see him lifting an entire mountain. That kind of strength would have been noticed or done a bit more against his brief fight with Sabo.

Remember that one scene when before Skypia the straw hats got surprised by that bird dropping on their ship?

Sure we got observation haki to see the target but the gun and bullets do have limits.

[@j.m.5746]

Think about this, Van Auger has just been given one of the best matching devil fruits for his ability. A sniper who can hit shots no problem from kilometres away now has an ability to warp those targets wherever he wants. Van Auger just became a sniper who can warp a person into his line of sight where he has shot, potentially has also became a person who can warp a bullet directly in front of his targets!

I feel like Burgess would be a good fit for Sanji. Given they're kinda the opposites fighting style. Sanji primarily uses his feet like Brazilian jiu-jitsu or taekwondo and Burgess mainly fights with his arms shown in him always throwing stuff and flexing his upper body. You can really see his pride in using his upper body and showing his strength. Plus Sanji's code of not using his hands in combat. Would be a pretty cool fight on a couple levels.

[@diablejambe3460]

An idea i had once shiryu got the invisibility fruit was that sanji would fight someone who got jozus fruit. Usually his and zoros opponents r good matchups for them, but this would be the opposite. Oda said zoro is most adept at armament while sanji is most adept at observation. So for their final fight they would have to overcome their "weakness". Plus this would keep the rivalry going as well. Zoro would say that it dsnt matter how fast sanji is since he defeated an invisible man while sanji would say it dsnt matter how strong zoros sword skills r since he defeated the one thing that cant be cut. With all these fruits revealed im no longer so sure this will happen (jozus fruit) but i do still believe in the basic idea that for their fights against the blackbeard pirates they will need to overcomes their "weakness" and that it wont be a favorable matchup like it usually is.

I headcanon'd an ability for Van Auger for fun back in ancient times when we first heard the BB crew was searching for DFs. It was the "Swapu Swapu no mi" essentially a less limited version of Law's switching teleportation. I envisioned him being able to touch targets and swap positions with them, ie shoot a bullet and swap to its location. I like Oda's more direct approach tbh but just thought it was neat how it's related to a less limited version of something Law can already do lol

[@davegraham716]

Law ran into BB during the Rocky Port Incident. (WHICH WAS ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO??) I believe BB even crypticaly mentions this in this chapter when he says to Law "its been quite some time since we last met". Well I don't think ot was ever shown or even mentioned tof them meeting before, certainly I don't believe they did pre-timeskip, unless oda just never mentioned it before now. Some may think BB was referring to them both being at Marineford during the Paramount war, but they never could've even seen each other.

[@pikazilla6405]

The most fucked up part of the pegasus coming from the medusa and being related to poseidon is the medusa’s origin story, originally a human woman who was raped (or seduced but if you know anything about greek gods it probably wasn’t consensual) by poseidon in a temple of athena and was cursed by athena because of it, meaning the pegasus is poseidon and medusa’s illegitimate child

You went over pretty extensively Van Auger and long range scenerios, but what about short range utility as a Sniper. The average person on flat ground can see over a mile. So within a mile Van Auger can not only teleport around instantly and fire from any direction, fire and teleport back out of range of anyone else... But he can also teleport his bullets now as well to come from any direction. Or shit he can even teleport others, into the path of his shots. With a long distance weapon and the ability to not only teleport yourself but anything else, this shit is terrifying.

[@zedoniusdragon8114]

Well here a couple of things about a pegasus: Pegasus could fly and also had an array of supernatural powers. He could pass between the mortal and immortal realms and create springs of water with his hooves. His wings clapped like thunder if he was angry. Pegasus was Medusa's son and lived by a spring he created beside Mount Helicon. The horse's name comes from the Greek word for “springs” or “waters.” Besides being able to fly, Pegasus had the magical power to create its own water supply by stamping its hoof. The horse traveled the world, eventually alighting at Mount Helicon, home of the Muses, who were the patron gods of the arts.

[@eliaspanayi3465]

I wonder if blackbeard can swap fruits around, so the configuration here is planned by blackbeard in order to take law's poneglyphs. Because we have the warp fruit which is based around law's shambles, the sick sick fruit could easily dispatch the crew, and between burgess and blackbeard they could easily fight law with an advantage
