Powers & Abilities DFs, Hidden Power

[Blazing Lion]

Haki has been hyped post TS, even the final event was JBs haki blast. And post Wano we have had a lot Zoan awakenings. We had already seen Paramecia awakening in DR and WCI and also Wano. Logia awakening has not been shown so far, there is a hint though based on Odas expected timeline that was way too short in the form of Croc in Alabasta and his comment on honing his fruit.
There are also other instances, Croc was using dance powder but I think his presence was also affecting Alabasta just like Ace was affecting the temperature of the snow island where he went to meet Shanks. I maybe wrong but Logias affecting the whole weather and environment of a country/island is very powerful, not in terms of 1v1 but overall. Then again I don't think Croc affecting Alabastas weather is confirmed by his passive DF (IIRC) and Aces incident might be due to his CoC amplifying his DF powers.

So there are two questions, can haki or in specific CoC amplify DF powers? The other is that we have seen Laws DF awakening but his DF was not hyped for the awakening instead it was hyped for immortality surgery. So is it some special power of Laws DF? Does every DF has a special power beyond awakening?

To understand how DFs grant Powers, We must first understand their Origin

No DF have more than One Natural Copy
They can be Artificially Copied, but Re-Create them the same way They Originally came to Exist? Apparently, it's Impossible
This means that Ingredient that was used to Create each DF cannot be re-used once added

It's similar to when you eat a DF, a Single Bite gives you Powers, the Rest of the Fruit becomes Useless
In other words, whatever was used to create each DF was connected to all that was associated with that specific Power

So for example, something was connecting All OPVerse Elephants & then it was taken (Meaning They all lose it Simultaneously) and used to create Zou Zou No Mi, which is a Process that cannot be done Twice, hence why each DF only have One Natural Copy

Why am i explaining this? It's cuz DFs don't just make you mimic something from the World, you're actually becoming the God of said Species or Element or Power ... etc

So Ace let's say, isn't just a guy who can turn into Fire, He is OPVerse Fire itself, He is God of Fire, and same goes for all other Logia Users & Zoans & Paramecia (But Different Concepts)

What is something that exists in everything in OPVerse? Not just Living Beings, Everything
It's "Voice of All Things" or as Zoro described it a "Breath"

When Zoro said He can sense Mr. 1's Breath of his Steel, did that mean that Zoro can "Only" Cut Mr. 1? Ofc not
Zoro didn't just learn to Cut Mr. 1 Specifically, He learned to Cut any Steel like that
This means that They all share the same Breath/Voice

So this is how DFs were Created, Someone was able to grab this Voice/Breath that connected things together (Or shall i say Mantra) & created these Powers as i explained above, which leads to People consuming these DFs not only acquiring their Powers, They are actually also Inheriting their Place in the World

Ace didn't use any Power or Haki in Drum Island, only his Presence was enough, cuz He is the Literal Embodiment of Fire, not just a Copy of it, He passively lets out the Voice/Breath of Fire (Just like Mr. 1 had Presence of Steel, not just a Man), so the World around him reacts as if God of Fire is speaking with them, so it acts accordingly, hence Snow refuses to fall when Ace is there

This actually happened in Ace Novel too when He met Shanks, Snow also reacted similarly
And Shanks said that He felt Ace's Haki before They met & described it as "Flames", which is everything i explained above

So it has nothing to do with Techniques or how Powerful Users are, it's just how DFs work.
By eating One, you're becoming God & Embodiment of said Power

For example, this Snow Reaction to Ace's Presence is no different than what Mihawk said about Luffy's Most Fearsome Ability, it's just what his DF does, He has Voice/Breath of Sun God Nika who apparently Unites People, so people are just influenced by him

Think of it as a Passive that you get when you eat the DF, it has nothing to do with your Mastery or Techniques or Power/Haki Level.
Now apply this to all DFs & try to figure out how each one effects the World around them

Wow that is quite an explanation, specifically that last part about Luffy. Was it because of Luffys DF that he got the most fearsome ability or is it actually an ability shared by others too but to different degrees.

Wow that is quite an explanation, specifically that last part about Luffy. Was it because of Luffys DF that he got the most fearsome ability or is it actually an ability shared by others too but to different degrees.

It's hard to tell, i think Luffy's DF does give that Ability, it's how Nika's Voice influences those around him
But it's possible that Luffy also had it & that's why DF ended up with him

I always come back to Blackbeard's Words when He said "It chose me"
It's like He was telling us that DFs only end up in the hands of those who are similar to them
(Especially coming from Blackbeard whose Crew won't shut up about Fate, They strongly believe in Fate & that everything is Pre-Determined)

This is why i believe that every DF User had their DF's Passive Ability even before They acquired it
Each Person have a different kind of Influence & there is also various levels to it

Blackbeard also have this Ability but He attracts Corrupt People, just take a look at his Crew, Corrupt King, Corrupt Sheriff, Corrupt Jailer ... etc
They all were drawn to him, Same for Buggy, He clearly also have that Passive, and many many others.

It's like you Attract those with same Voice as you, it's the whole principal behind how a Crew is made, it's a Story about Pirate Crews.
What happens when you connect those Voices? It becomes like a Net. Which is what Mantra means, it translates to "Mind Net"

Once you're influenced by someone, you're automatically part of their Path, meaning you're also under those They are influenced by as well.
What does this remind of? It's literally just like Grand Line

Countless Islands, each own has it's own Magnetic Field & They are each connected to specific other Islands, which creates a set number of possible Paths (In Paradise, there are Seven Paths).

So similarly, every Character in One Piece have their own Passive Influence which is like their Magnetic Field, and it is what determines how They connect to each other, eventually creating a hierarchy ladder or shall i say Paths that eventually lead to One Leader

It's like every person position is predetermined based on how they all compare to each other, and DFs are then simply drawn to those who need them to fulfill their Role in said Position, some need DFs, some don't

But in Pirates Journey to get One Piece after Roger encouraged them (Who is like Reverse Mountain of Story representing Starting Point), who are Leaders of Pirate World? They are Yonko, meaning They are Characters with Strongest Influence who all have that most fearsome ability, every Pirate is forced to take one of their Paths & be under them

How many Yonko we had? Exactly Seven, just like Grand Line Seven Possible Paths
Which makes this explanation sound more legit
