Powers & Abilities Bro what even is Laffitte's ability?

If he had an Owl Zoan I think he would take on more Owl features than just the wings. But idk. It could be anything.

You know, Laffitte's Devil Fruit doesn't even necessarily have to be bird-themed. We've seen Robin form wings out of her body parts. This could even be a Devil Fruit that can just mimic wings, somehow, without actually being a Bird Zoan.

As for what it actually is? No idea. It could be something goofy like...I dunno...pickles or something. Or since all of Blackbeard's crew have fairly "serious" Devil Fruits, it's probably something that at least sounds cool. Maybe since he has hypnosis powers, he has a Coin Fruit? And his wings are made out of metal coins? Think like the Treasure Bat boss from Super Castlevania 4.

It's not even Top 20 strangest abilities we've seen.
He has to have an hidden ability for sure because he was able to sneak in Marijoa unnoticed and casually introduce himself to Sengoku and the warlords who didn’t sense his presence.

Like BB, his powers not being revealed yet usually indicate his strength unlike other BB members that had theirs revealed.

Manga is an interative form storytelling. It's been well over 20 years since Lafitte's debut in ch 234 (June 17, 2002). Ideas change and evolve over time. No one is immune to this, not even Oda.

Laffitte could just be really good at concealing his presence or it could be something else. Though he's a navigator, Laffitte is basically the Sanji of the BBP. They're both high intelligent and excell at independent operations involving stealth and infiltration. Sanji was operating in this role long before he got Haki or his exoskeleton.

Whatever it is, I don't believe we have much reason to believe Lafiftte had his DF abilities prior to Blackbeard going on a killing spree, nor do I think there's anything in his backstory (such as it is atm) that would suggest or indicate he has some natural abilities like Lunarian flames, Buccaneer strength, Longarm limbs or Blackbeard's "peculiar" body.

I once believed that he had the magic magic fruit , and it hold several skills , like hypnosis, turn into a pigeon , or something similar, with some limitations.

But then again, people like jango exists , so he could just have an random bird fruit , with an nice sense of direction.

What is this man??

There are only soooo many mysteries left in One Piece... whatever this dude is- he is apparently one of them too
To answer the post seriously it doesn’t seem like the wings are related to a Zoan power since transforming merges the transformation with the zoan form so the fact that the shirt doesn’t do that and instead falls down like this may mean it’s a hint at something else (or Oda messed up the drawing) plus there’s no other change but the wings which is abnormal for zoan transformation

Not really. Mythical Zoans are able to use partial transformations. We’ve seen Marco do this several times. Kaido and Yamato have also uses partial transformations iirc
