Powers & Abilities Double Eye pattern

#1
I know this is the n'th thread Zoro left eye.

But hear me out.

First All the double eye pattern user in the series are,

  • Imu
  • Mihawk
  • Zunesha
  • Caribou
  • Cavendish
Out of all these ,
  • Haki/ Non-DF users
    • Mihawk
    • Cavendish
  • DF users
    • Caribou
  • Totally different entity
    • Imu
    • Zunesha
But , differentiaiting them Color wise ,
  • Red Eyes
    • Mihawk
    • Imu
  • Blue~Green
    • Cavendish
    • Zunesha
    • Caribou
Let's talk about them individually.
  • Cavendish
    • His Normal Eye color is Light blue.
    • But when Hakuba takes over , it's Completely White , there's no eye pattern
    • When Cavendish can Control Hakuba , Only at that time Cavendish Side , the controlled one turns " Golden/Yellow ".
  • Caribou
    • His Eyes are always Blue~Green themed.
    • We have never seen him with any other Eye color. But we might be see it later. It can be " Yellow ". I'll explain later why.
  • Zunesha
    • His Eye color is almost similar to Blue~Green shade only.
Now , my theory is ,

- Those who are Hosts to Such Demonic Entity have Blue ~ Green Eye pattern
- Those who are able to Capable of Controlling their Demonic Powers have " Yellow~Golden " Eyes.
- Those who have complete Control over their "Demon" or whatever entity, have " Red Eyes ".

So with that , Zunesha , Caribou and Cavendish are host to some entity.
- Zunesha has to follow an order , no matter what , he doesn't have control over himself , Hence no " Yellow~Golden " Eyes.
- Cavendish , when In control Of Hakuba has Yellow eyes , and Hakuba side still has " Blue~Green " Eyes. The side which is controllable is Yellow.
- Caribou is special we all know that somehow.
Bro was in FMI , then Wano as well. And now With Blackbeard Crew , Oda has plans for him.


Now coming Red/Yellow Eyes of Mihawk.

Many thought , Mihawk Eyes color were changed from Red to yellow/Golden. But hear me out.

This is how Mihawk was introduced.
As I said above.
  • Blue~Green - Host
  • Yellow~Golden - Can Control the entity or Demon
  • Red - has Full control over the Demon.


Now to why Zoro closes his left Eyes.

- Because he still can't the Demon.
- In this case I'm referring to " Ashura ".
- because the entire ashura is named as , " Demon Aura ".

Now look , how carefully Oda removed Zoro left eye from the Panels.


Now going back to Zoro saw S-Hawk for the First time.



" You're Actuallt a little more " Human " than him ".

S-hawk Eye color doesn't look Red to me like Mihawk. In fact the colored manga.


Now , coming Rayleigh.
- He has similar Scar like Zoro on his Right Eye. But he uses the Eye without closing it like Zoro.
- Ryuma was a One eyed Warrior as well.

Rayleigh was called " Dark King " and reason is still unknown. Why.


Zoro left eye , Might be revealed soon.

I'm not sure if we should put too much stock into the eye colors. They may be from the officially colored manga, but I doubt that part of it will come up in the actual story. This is mainly a black and white manga. I don't think Oda will have a relevant plot point tied to the official colors when the manga isn't colored until months later.

And most of these characters don't act like they're being possessed. I don't think this is a case where there are two souls inhabiting the same body. It doesn't seem to quite work. Cavendish fits the bill. But, no one else seems to. And if this WAS the case, I feel like Blackbeard would probably ALSO have Ringed Eyes, due to all the theories swirling around about him and his 3 "hearts", but he usually doesn't.

They COULD all be part of some yet unexplained race? But, I tend to doubt that, too. I don't see how a giant elephant fits in. I mean...this is One Piece, so I GUESS Zunesha could be related to Imu and Mihawk by blood. Minks and Zoans exist. But...I doubt it?

We have seen other characters with these kind of eyes, too. Big Mom has similar eyes at times. And even the Minks going into Sulong form have similar eyes. And almost every character gets something sort of similar when they're shocked, or surprised, or angry.

reddit.com/r/Piratefolk/comments/1i3vif6/is_it_possibly_mihawk_ringed_eyes_have_lore_and_a/

So, my personal theory at the moment is that this isn't a power, or a possession. This is about PASSION.

The Ringed Eyes signify that the person is being controlled by a single, overpowering emotion. Something deep-seated that's overwhelming them. Something that they've felt for years and can't get pass. It's the difference between feeling a momentary flash of anger, and being full of hatred for years.

They're all probably feeling different emotions. For Big Mom, it's hunger. For Imu, it could be hatred or fear. For Zunesha, it might be despair or shame.

But, the Ringed Eyes probably means that they're being controlled by whatever this one emotion is. To the detriment of themselves or others. Something they can't stop thinking or feeling. Something that's holding them back from feeling anything else. Something that they're obsessed with that's holding them back from growing as people. They're hyperfocused, to a dangerous degree.

As for Zoro having a Ringed Eye under his scarred eye...well, it's an interesting idea. I wouldn't be surprised if Oda reveals something like that. Like, that Zoro's actually been "training" that eye this entire time, somehow. But, I also wouldn't be surprised if he didn't.

But, it's really hard to say right now. We just don't have enough information.

I don't think that's really an issue , Oda gives us , Cover story and Color spreads during the on going chapters to get the idea of " Official " Colorings.

That's what I'm trying to say ,
Blue~Green shade means , They are host. And can be controlled by someone else , like Cavendish and Zunesha (who is ordered to walk around continously)
Yellow~Golden means , They can Control their Entity powers , Cavendish eyes turn Yellow Golden when he controls one half of Hakuba.

As for blackbeard different Entities living in same person , is a theory in the end itself. I can't comment on that.


They COULD all be part of some yet unexplained race? But, I tend to doubt that, too. I don't see how a giant elephant fits in. I mean...this is One Piece, so I GUESS Zunesha could be related to Imu and Mihawk by blood. Minks and Zoans exist. But...I doubt it?
I think you mistook that ringed eyes means connection to Imu or Mihawk.
Ringed eyes means Existence of something else.
Even Cavendish isn't related to imu/Mihawk.

We have seen other characters with these kind of eyes, too. Big Mom has similar eyes at times. And even the Minks going into Sulong form have similar eyes. And almost every character gets something sort of similar when they're shocked, or surprised, or angry.
When they surprised or Angry , that's just an one time Reaction drawn.
But a few characters always have Ringed eyes.

As for Bigmom and Sulong form. Don't they fit in my theory?
Bigmom Has soul fruit and high chances is controlled by Mother carmel because no one still has the clue on how she got the fruit in the first place , If Fruit awakening is something like extracting your soul and giving it to someone else. Than it makes sense to why she choose Bigmom as the Host as she was strong even when she was young.

Sulong form , they have Red Ringed eyes , which again according to my theory means , Having full control over the powers of demon or Entity. And they can only use sulong during night and moon visibility. They could be Related to demons/Entities as well. As they live on top of Zunesha to begin with.

Caribou doesn't have same Eyes as those Four, it's more of a Triple Ringed Eyes,
And it's probably due to the People He swallows using his DF, similar to how Big Mom & her Homies develop Rinnegan Eyes due to the Souls They absorb. The only ones that Oda clearly Highlighted & seem to be Ancient are Zunisha, Imu, Mihawk & Hakuba.

As for the Colors, We can't really base any Conclusions on them, both Anime & Colored Manga are only Canon as long as Oda doesn't have a different Idea, so can't really use them, and so far neither of those Characters were drawn in Manga Volume Covers.

However, thanks to Cavendish We learned that Double-Layered Eyes only appear when Both Host (Owner of Body) & Guest (Whoever is Possessing them) are Awake, meaning Both are looking through those Eyes, (It's like the Equivalent of DF Awakening, as both become in Sync).

This means that there might be many People around the World (Could be Characters we've met before) who are sharing their Bodies with others (Similar to Hakuba or Mu) but don't have those Eyes cuz They aren't Awakened yet, They didn't Fuse with who's Inside them yet.
It's like They are Sleeper Agents.

And then there are People who did, and so far only Confirmed ones are Mihawk & Imu & Zunisha.
Secondly, Cavendish also revealed to us that while Double-Layered Eyes indicate Fusion, those Two still need to choose who takes Control, it's basically similar to Goku & Vegeta Fusion, are we gonna see Gogeta or We gonna see Vegito?

In Mihawk's Case, it seems Mihawk is the one who is in Control while the Guest is chilling (Probably waiting for someone Worthy to Fight).
In Zunisha's Case, it also seems to be the one in Control, and seeing how it's Living, it could actually be a Prison to whoever is Inside it.
In Imu's Case, it's the opposite, it's Mu who is in Control, so He can Rule WG.

Now when it comes to Zoro, don't expect him to have Double-Layered Eyes, He is supposed to represent everything that's Opposite of Mihawk (Knight vs Samurai, Marine Hunter vs Pirate Hunter, Clairvoyant vs Bad with Directions, Hawk-Eyes vs One-Eyed, Talent vs Hardworking ... etc),

If i can summarize what i think about how They compare, those are Fake Demons, Zoro is a Real Demon.
