Say Hello To The Next Devil Fruit Of The Straw Hats In One Piece

by

This article contains spoilers from the One Piece series.

The current arc in One Piece centers around Elbaf, where Luffy and his crew, the Straw Hat Pirates, are facing a major conflict with the World Government and its powerful Holy Knights. Adding to the challenge is the unexpected appearance of Saint Imu Nerona, who has quickly become the story’s biggest villain. The narrative clearly requires the Straw Hats to become more powerful, and fans anticipate the Monster Trio will develop new Haki abilities during their time in Elbaf. However, even that might not be enough to prepare them for what’s coming.

The Straw Hat Pirates need to become even stronger, and that means adding new members to the crew and finding powerful Devil Fruit abilities. It seems likely, based on hints from the author, Oda, that they’ll soon gain another incredibly strong Devil Fruit power, potentially through a character named Loki. Currently, the crew has four Devil Fruit abilities: the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, the original Hito Hito no Mi, the Hana Hana no Mi, and the Yomi Yomi no Mi. Loki’s powerful Devil Fruit is expected to become their fifth ability.

Loki’s Legendary Devil Fruit Will Strengthen The Straw Hat Pirates

  • His fruit can destroy the world

Loki is undeniably a powerful character in the world of One Piece. He showed incredible strength even as a child, but his true power comes from the Devil Fruit he consumed. About 14 years ago, Loki had a battle with King Harald at Aurust Castle on the island of Elbaf, and during that fight, he was deeply disturbed by what he learned about his father.

You’re in the presence of the Sun God who shall destroy the whole world. — Loki to Luffy

He ultimately had to fight and possibly kill Harald himself. Legend says over a hundred giants fell at Aurust Castle that day, all at Loki’s hand. However, even more surprising things occurred that same day.

Fourteen years ago, Loki unexpectedly ate the famed Devil Fruit of Elbaf, a treasure passed down through the generations. People from Elbaf believe this fruit is unbelievably powerful, with the potential to destroy not only their homeland, but the entire world – a truly terrifying prospect.

Loki’s Devil Fruit Is Likely Mythical Zoan

We don’t yet know exactly what Loki’s Devil Fruit does, and Eiichiro Oda will likely keep the full details a secret for a while. However, most fans believe it’s a Mythical Zoan type. This is because Loki identifies as the Sun God, and this belief stems directly from the powers of his Devil Fruit.

My strength is being drained by the sea prism stone that I’m currently wearing. — Loki to Luffy

Essentially, Luffy’s Devil Fruit allows him to transform into a different form. People, even the giants of Elbaf, believe he’s a Sun God, suggesting his fruit is a powerful, legendary Mythical Zoan type. While its exact nature is still a mystery, it’s likely to be incredibly destructive and could significantly increase the Straw Hat Pirates’ strength in the future.

Loki’s Devil Fruit Power Will Make The Straw Hat Pirates The Strongest Crew

The Straw Hat Pirates are already considered one of the strongest pirate crews in the world, but they’re still growing. Luffy is actively looking for new members, and he recently extended an invitation to Loki to join his team.

Currently, Loki isn’t a member of the Straw Hat Pirates, but it’s very likely he will join them soon. If he accepts Luffy’s invitation, the Straw Hats will gain their fifth user of a Devil Fruit power – a truly legendary ability that would make them incredibly powerful. With that kind of strength, Luffy and his crew could even surpass the other Emperors of the Sea.

The newest chapter of Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece, Chapter 1168, will be available in this week’s Weekly Shonen Jump. It officially releases on December 7, 2025. In Japan, it will be released at midnight on Monday, which is 11:00 AM Eastern Time and 8:00 AM Pacific Time. Fans can read the chapter for free on Manga Plus and the Shonen Jump app.
