One Piece Villains and Hidden God Fruits Revealed!

by

Summary

  • Devil Fruits are foundational power-ups in One Piece, and God Fruits are the ultimate form of this power-up.
  • Imu may have the Earth God Fruit and Blackbeard could have a Moon God Fruit.
  • Blackbeard’s potential third Devil Fruit could be a Mythical Zoan type, setting up a major clash with Luffy.

In the world of “One Piece”, while there are numerous ways for characters to boost their strength, such as power-ups or methods, Devil Fruits serve as the fundamental basis for the series’ power structure. Although other means of character development do exist, Devil Fruits stand out as the simplest and most prevalent power-ups in the storyline, frequently elevating ordinary characters to extraordinary levels of power.

In the second half of the One Piece narrative, some fans thought that Devil Fruits were becoming less significant. However, when Luffy’s Nika fruit was unveiled in Wano, a new concept called God Fruits emerged, shaking things up significantly. Though speculation abounds about who might possess the remaining God Fruits, let’s examine some potential villains who could claim such power.

  • The most likely villain with a God Fruit power is Imu.
  • Blackbeard could also very likely have a God Fruit ability.

To determine if any villains possess God Fruits, we need to understand what these God Fruits actually represent. When fans discovered that Luffy’s Devil Fruit was the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, which is known as the Sun God of the world, they began using the term ‘God Fruit’ to refer to the most potent types of Devil Fruits. These powerful fruits grant their users the ability to transform into divine beings or gods of some kind.

Following this disclosure, viewers may find themselves re-exploring the Skypiea saga, a significant storyline that hinted at Luffy’s hidden might and had far-reaching effects on the series’ lore, even though it wasn’t apparent then. In this saga, references were made to numerous deities of the world, including the Sun God, leading many to speculate that the Nika Fruit is not unique but one among several God Fruits. This theory gained more traction in Chapter 1138 of the Elbaf arc, where these gods were mentioned again.

Of course, as these characters exhibit peculiar powers, enthusiasts started to notice similarities with certain fruits. To find out if any antagonists possess such abilities, it’s worth examining those listed in Skypiea and the mural. Notably, the enigmatic Earth God Fruit is under suspicion, as many speculate that it belongs to Imu, who is said to be the world’s ruler. This assumption becomes plausible when considering the Harley Texts, which suggest that the Earth God collaborated with the Serpent of Hellfire to shroud the world in darkness.

In much the same way, Imu mirrors this character because they forbid exploration into the authentic past of our world and have maintained people’s ignorance about the truth for centuries, effectively keeping them in metaphorical shadows. Moreover, Imu dwells atop the Red Line, a region often perceived as unnatural that surrounds the planet, challenging the balance of nature according to many global inhabitants. Given the immense power that the Earth Deity appears to wield in the Harley Texts, it’s not hard to see why people draw comparisons between Imu and this figure.

The Earth God raged, and with its Serpent of Hellfire, shrouded the world in death and darkness.

The Forest God seems elusive and hard to define. At first glance, Admiral Green Bull might appear to be the perfect fit for this role given his Logia Devil Fruit abilities. However, it’s questionable if such an influential power would be held by a character of lesser significance. Thus, there are speculations that it could be Loki instead. While Chapter 1143 suggests Green Bull may not be a villain, he does exhibit hostile behaviors.

It has been confirmed that Loki possesses a divine fruit, traditionally associated with the Sun God. However, both Loki and the residents of Elbaf claim that his power stems from the Sun God. This could potentially rule out Loki as a candidate for the Forest God Fruit. Nevertheless, there’s still a possibility, given that ancient texts suggest the Forest God summoned demons, which could align with Loki’s mischievous character and his tendency to release monsters from the underworld of Elbaf.

Yet, establishing such a link seems rather tenuous. To illustrate, the Rain God’s identity is under dispute, with many believing Monkey D. Dragon is the prime suspect given his swift control over the weather during his brief stint in Loguetown. However, there are some who propose that Enel might be the Rain God due to his lightning abilities being vaguely related to rain and storms; however, this theory is rather improbable.

It’s plausible that Blackbeard could be the antagonist who possesses a divine fruit, other than Imu, according to speculation. From the outset of the narrative, it seems Oda designed this character to embody Luffy’s opposite in almost every aspect. As such, many fans suspect that Blackbeard’s long-awaited unique Devil Fruit could be the counterpart of the Nika fruit, granting him the power to transform into a Moon Deity. This would create an intriguing parallel and provide valuable context for their eventual showdown.

The Evidence For Blackbeard Having A God Fruit

How Could This Power Exist?

Previously mentioned, Blackbeard represents the opposite of everything Luffy embodies, and after more than 1100 manga chapters, he continues to be one of the greatest enigmas in “One Piece.” Currently, Luffy is considered the strongest pirate globally, and their confrontation has been foreshadowed throughout the series. Given this build-up, it seems logical for Blackbeard to possess a power capable of matching Luffy’s might.

It would be a fantastic twist if this event occurred within the storyline. Blackbeard stands out as the only individual capable of wielding several Devil Fruit powers concurrently. Notably, his powers belong to both the most powerful Logia and Paramecia categories across the entire universe. Given these exceptional abilities, many fans speculate that his final Devil Fruit will be one of the strongest Mythical Zoan types.

Fate has chosen me to conquer this world!

It fits with his character development because his main goal is to rule over the entire world and accumulate as much power and authority as he can – something entirely different from what Luffy strives for, which is spreading joy and liberation among everyone. Consequently, it could be inferred that Blackbeard’s Mythical Zoan fruit may be the polar opposite of Luffy’s.

There are two scenarios: either Blackbeard will gain the ability to hold multiple Devil Fruit powers, or he’s been possessing this power since the start of the series. Regardless, when Blackbeard clashes with Luffy in the future, it will undeniably be one of the most epic battles in the entire One Piece universe.
