Devil Fruit

Biodata

Consumption and Core Properties

• Only the first bite of a Devil Fruit grants its ability; Alvida consumed the remaining Slip-Slip Fruit after Moya bit it first and received no power. 6
• A fruit can immediately alter its user's body and grant instinctive knowledge of basic applications, as seen when Moya gained slippery skin, enhanced physical ability, and an understanding of the Slip-Slip Fruit. 6
• Devil Fruit abilities consume stamina. Highly developed or awakened techniques can exhaust a user rapidly and may carry severe backlash. 431 465 469
• Fruit abilities and Armament Haki can counter one another depending on their relative development; Haki is not portrayed as an absolute negation of Devil Fruit powers. 78

Classification

Development and Awakening

• Users can develop an ability toward mobility, offense, defense, utility, or more unusual effects; Moya planned to evolve the Slip-Slip Fruit from rapid movement into instantaneous or spatial sliding, environmental control, and the removal of attacks or abilities. 8
• Moya attributes Paramecia growth primarily to the user's mindset and imagination, citing Tsuru's cleansing ability and Kuma's pain-repelling techniques as developments shaped by their users' goals. 7 16
• Awakening is associated with a user’s physique and will being recognized by their fruit, rather than simple technical proficiency. 312
• Awakened Paramecia abilities can impose their properties on external matter, such as turning terrain into strings or assigning magnetism to non-metal targets. 312
• Moya’s awakened Slip-Slip Fruit grants him an energy-efficient physical-combat form, while his awakened Rumble-Rumble and Munch-Munch Fruits are much more draining ultimate options. 431
• Awakened Zoan powers can endanger a user’s mind if the user cannot suppress the fruit’s “animal demon”; Moya cites the Jailer Beasts as evidence. This is his interpretation rather than a confirmed universal rule. 63

Reincarnation and Inheritance

Rebirth into fruit

• Devil Fruit powers can return to fruit after a user’s death. Moya theorizes that specially prepared fruit can attract a recently released ability, based on Caesar’s experiments and Burgess carrying fruit while hunting Luffy’s power. 73
• After killing Zoku, Moya used the Yami Yami no Mi to draw out the Soul-Splitting Fruit, causing a newly formed Devil Fruit to appear on his Dark Fruit. 230
• Moya later used the same general approach inside a Seastone chamber to force the Nika Fruit into an ordinary fruit after killing Luffy. 489

Alabasta’s Seastone inheritance chamber

• The Nefertari Family maintains a sealed block of one-hundred-percent-pure Seastone for inheriting the Falcon and Jackal guardian fruits. 103 104
• A dying guardian enters the chamber carrying a fruit; their Devil Fruit is reborn inside the chamber rather than escaping elsewhere. 103
• The immense Seastone block is exceptionally heavy and suppresses Devil Fruit-created matter. Moya notes that even awakened constructs cannot bind it, while sufficiently pure Seastone can force Homies and other Fruit-created entities back to their original forms. 104
• Devil Fruit users are poorly suited to moving the inheritance treasure because of its purity and mass; Moya considers only exceptional powers such as Shiki, Fujitora, or Kaido potentially capable of moving it. 104

Artificial Devil Fruits and Object Integration

Artificial Devil Fruits

• Vegapunk created an Artificial Devil Fruit modeled on Kaido’s Azure Dragon lineage factor; it is described as a pink, circular-patterned apple-like fruit called the Flood Dragon Fruit. 53
• The Flood Dragon Fruit carried severe risks: a stated fifty-percent chance of death, possible SMILE or Gifter-like mutation, and only a ten-percent chance of becoming a complete Mythical Zoan user. Gin successfully gained its dragon transformation. 53
• Caesar’s SAD is identified as the raw material for SMILE Artificial Devil Fruits, which are stated to have major flaws. 394
• Artificial Devil Fruits can be controlled by Otama’s dango ability; this control is confirmed for Gifters and Headliners, but not for ordinary Zoan users. 287

Devil Fruit weapons

• Known Devil Fruit weapons include a dachshund cannon with the Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Dachshund, and a sword with the Elephant-Elephant Fruit. 63
• Only Zoan fruits are known to have been successfully fused with inanimate objects. 63
• Moya theorizes that Zoan fruits contain conscious “animal demons,” allowing Vegapunk to activate and implant that consciousness into an object; he contrasts this with most Paramecia and Logia fruits, which he believes cannot inhabit soulless matter. 63
• The Yami Yami no Mi was successfully given to the sentient Darkroot handguard, which then demonstrated Black Hole and Liberation techniques. 231

Notable Devil Fruit Interactions

• Munch-Munch Fruit — Can swallow a living Devil Fruit user, fuse with them, and temporarily use their ability; Wapol demonstrated this by swallowing Mushuru and firing toxic spore ammunition. 85
• Yami Yami no Mi — Draws Devil Fruit users toward its wielder through Black Vortex and can be used by Moya to reclaim abilities into prepared fruits or compatible vessels. 187 230
• Slip-Slip Fruit — Developed by Moya to disperse Haki, blood, and other targets through sliding; its Domain: Sky-to-Earth Slide Rail Net creates transparent rails for high-speed attacks. 78
• Munch-Munch Fruit awakening — Allows Moya to assimilate Zoan users on a greater scale, including Kaido’s Azure Dragon power and full dragon transformation. 436
• Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika — Revealed to be Luffy’s true fruit rather than the Gomu Gomu no Mi; its power is immune to Im’s Destruction Fruit. 365 481
