One Piece: Every Devil Fruit in the Whitebeard Pirates

Key Takeaways

The Whitebeard Pirates were a strong crew led by Edward Newgate, divided into factions and powered by rare Devil Fruits.
Gura Gura no Mi creates tremors, Marco’s Phoenix Fruit heals, and Ace’s fire powers were nullified by Blackbeard.
Jozu’s diamond body defends against attacks, Toki’s time fruit sends people forward, and Blamenco stores objects in a pocket dimension.

As a seasoned One Piece fanatic with over two decades of following this epic saga, I must say that the Whitebeard Pirates‘ Devil Fruits are nothing short of extraordinary! Among these unique abilities, three stand out as particularly fascinating.

In the world of One Piece, the Whitebeard Pirates were one of the most powerful crews. Their leader, Edward Newgate, was an orphan who yearned for camaraderie and treated his fellow pirates like his own children. Over time, he amassed numerous allied crews and a large enough main crew that dividing them became essential. Additionally, several members of the crew possessed Devil Fruits, some of which were among the most powerful and rare in the series. However, due to casualties during the Summit War and the more decisive defeat the Whitebeard Pirates sustained during the Payback War, the relationship between each Devil Fruit and the crew has varied over time.

6 Gura Gura no Mi

Formerly Whitebeard’s Devil Fruit

One Piece: Every Devil Fruit in the Whitebeard Pirates

The Gura Gura no Mi is widely considered to be the most powerful Paramecia Devil Fruit. The user becomes a Tremor Human, capable of causing massive shockwaves which can travel through most mediums. This is commonly used by those who wield its powers to create earthquakes by sending shockwaves to the ground. This Devil Fruit formerly belonged to Newgate himself, but he was killed during the Summit War at Marineford.

After the death of an old pirate, his Devil Fruit was taken by a former crewmate, Edward Teach (Blackbeard), using a method that remains unclear. Now, Blackbeard, who has his own Yami Yami no Mi, is the only known person to possess and use two Devil Fruits at once. This ability allows him to emit shockwaves through his hands, although it’s worth noting that Whitebeard also seemed capable of channeling these shockwaves with his weapon, Murakumogiri, at times.

5 Tori Tori no Mi, Model: Phoenix

Marco’s Devil Fruit

The Tori Tori no Mi, Model: Phoenix is one of the rarest Devil Fruits ever, belonging to the Mythical Zoan subset, which allows its user to transform into a mythical creature. In First Division Commander, Marco’s case, this creature is a phoenix. Marco uses his Devil Fruit to attack, but also to heal, as the phoenix flames have regenerative properties. He can heal himself from most fatal attacks and also heal others. When fully transformed into a phoenix, Marco can effectively evade most attacks in a manner akin to a Logia user.

The powers of the Devil Fruit are not fully understood at this point, with their limitations still largely unexplored. Marco dwells on Sphinx, an island previously inhabited by Whitebeard, where he spent his childhood as an orphan. In this locale, he employs his Devil Fruit abilities in two capacities: first, as a healer for the local populace; second, as a guardian of Whitebeard’s former residence, safeguarding it from potential harm.

4 Mera Mera no Mi

Formerly Ace’s Devil Fruit

1. The Mera Mera no Mi is an exceptional and potent Logia fruit, one of the three fundamental types of Devil Fruit. This fruit grants its user the ability to manipulate, generate, and transform into fire. Commander Portgas D. Ace skillfully utilized this power, making it extremely difficult for opponents without Haki to cause him harm in most situations. Due to his powerful Devil Fruit abilities, Ace was virtually unbeatable until he met his match against Blackbeard, who countered them with his own Logia fruit, rendering them useless.

Subsequently, Ace ended up being confined within Impel Down. Later, Luffy masterminded a jailbreak operation to rescue him. Regrettably, Ace’s liberty didn’t last long, as he met his demise during the Summit War. It was Marine Admiral Akainu who took his life, employing the Magu Magu no Mi, a more potent Logia, to incinerate him with intense heat.

Following Ace’s demise, Donquixote Doflamingo seized control of the Mera Mera no Mi, intending to lure Luffy with it. Despite numerous warriors vying for this coveted Logia fruit, it was ultimately devoured by Sabo, a key member of the revolutionary army and close confidant of Luffy and Ace. Sabo harnesses the power of the Devil Fruit not only through a metallic pipe he carries, but also through his own physical form.

3 Kira Kira no Mi

Jozu’s Devil Fruit

The Kira Kira no Mi, or the “Dazzling Fruit,” bestowed upon Jozu, a commander in Whitebeard Pirates’ Third Division, grants the ability to transform certain parts of one’s body into hard, invulnerable diamond. This transformation makes Jozu virtually indestructible, as even Dracule Mihawk, known as the World’s Strongest Swordsman, has failed to penetrate Jozu’s diamond form without causing any visible harm. However, this power comes with a catch: any body part transformed into diamond remains stationary while in that state.

Since the end of the Payback War, there hasn’t been any information about Jozu’s whereabouts or condition. For now, it seems reasonable to presume that he might be in concealment, which implies that he is still alive and holding onto his Devil Fruit.

2 Toki Toki no Mi

Formerly Toki’s Devil Fruit

Kozuki Oden’s wife was a time-traveling character, possessing a Devil Fruit called Toki Toki no Mi. This unique fruit enabled her to traverse through various points in time, moving forward whenever danger emerged. She joined the Whitebeard Pirates and later the Roger Pirates, but eventually decided to stay with Oden permanently, implying that her time-traveling ability was seldom used during her tenure with those crews.

As a gamer, I could rephrase that as: “I’ve got this power called the Devil Fruit, and it’s not just about having super powers. It can also propel others through time! Remember Toki, who sent her son Momonosuke, plus four of Wano’s Red Scabbards, into the future? They did that to dodge the Beasts Pirates’ attack on Wano Country. Sadly, Toki herself didn’t make it. Now, the fruit is back in play, and we don’t know who’s got their hands on it now.”

1 Poke Poke no Mi

Blamenco’s Devil Fruit

Commander Blamenco from the Sixth Division of the Whitebeard Pirates is less well-known among those who have consumed a Devil Fruit. His powers, derived from a Paramecia Devil Fruit, grant him an expansive storage capacity within his body. In combat during the Summit War, Blamenco would store a massive mallet, bigger than himself, in the pocket of his right chin. This mallet served as his primary weapon against marines.

Most Whitebeard Pirates, including Blamenco, have been absent since the Payback War, suggesting they might still be alive and holding onto their Devil Fruit. Interestingly, Oda hinted that if allowed one, Usopp would own this specific Devil Fruit. Given Usopp’s extensive arsenal of weapons, it’s not hard to see why he would find this type of fruit appealing.
