General & Others Orange justice and their black blade

[Albino 👑]

My annual orange admiral wank

With soon to be ex admiral Borsalino Kizaru becoming a thing means the orange admiral will soon shine

Unlike the og primary color trio Ryokugyu and Fujitora’s swords seem to be an important part of their characters. Fujitora having a supreme grade blade and Ryokugyu having a black blade of an unknown grade. I think orange will also have a sword important to them too

I believe death and sacrifice play a main role in how black blades

1. Mihawk’s life being taken by his blade with him managing to overcome death. Him becoming part of the blade (permanently black) and the blade becoming a sword a part of him (double ringed eyes)
2. A significant woman in Aramaki’s life being taken by the blade he carries with her fully dying. Her life being what made the blade permanently black
3. Issho while obviously not having a black blade might’ve also made a sacrifice of some sort aka his eyes. By doing so possibly being strengthened by his blade
   • Imo that might also be the case with shusui and zoro’s eye but with zoro not realizing. Same way he didn’t realize he had conquerors

So basically imo

• A significant women is ryokugyu’s life sacrificed her life making ryokugyu’s blade stronger but not himself. Her being a part of the blade
• Fujitora sacrificing his eyes made himself stronger but not his blade stronger. The blade being a part of him
• Mihawk sacrificing his life made himself and his blade stronger. Both he and his blade being a part of each other

I’ve been made the theory on how making a black blade ties to sacrifice and death. If my theory is right with

• Fujitora gave his eyes and sight to his blade. The blade becoming a part of him
• Ryokugyu having an important woman to him give their life to his blade. Her becoming a part of the blade
• Orange should give their life to their blade. Them becoming a part of their blade and their blade becoming a part of them

I think if the orange zodiac ends up being first off admiral level but a zoan on top off that they might have a decent chance of having a black blade

Mainly because I think zoan awakenings and black blade “awakening” might be more similar than we think
From them having wills of their own and even being able to pick the users. With being able to do so you truly need to become one with the fruit/blade and maybe it also involves death

First up kaido and oden
Imo 20 years ago when they were both coincidentally 39 the 2 were equal with them mastering their abilities to the best of their abilities just right before being able to hit that next level. That being kaido lacking awakening his fruit and oden his blades. As for why they never fully achieved those feats I think it 100% has to do with them just being too strong

Both were limited by their own strength in their own ways. Imo death is the key to both zoan awakening and forging a black blade. Something kaido probably figured out too late and maybe something oden just never learned before dying. It could also have been the case he never felt pushed to do so with him being comfortable in his own strength

We know both fruits and strong enough weapons are capable of having their own personalities and finding users they themselves feel worthy of them. I think it’s through death that they can truly become one with the user if they happen to be fully worthy to embody their will

Like using a fruit doesn’t mean you’re going to master it or having a meito doesn’t mean you’re going to make it black but hey that doesn’t mean that can’t find people capable of using them until they find someone more capable eventually

Imo you need to die in order to achieve zoan awakening but if you’re not truly worthy the fruit either takes over your body or it just moves on to find a new host.
I think black blades involve giving yourself up to the blade aka straight up killing yourself. If worthy you become one with the blade and if not damn…. I also think you can give up less if yourself for lesser gains. That imo tying to zoro’s eyes and shusui

If both lived longer both would have been able to achieve their true potential. Tho tbh kaido might return awakened after his fight with luffy

While not exactly the same because death isn’t a requirement for paramecia awakenings whitebeard and big mom might have also been in a similar situation. Tho tbh more so big mom

With how unnaturally strong they are without their fruits they likely weren’t put in too many situations where they really had to push beyond themselves and their limits
Tho with all of whitebeard’s scars and battles he’s been through throughout the years I do think he had to be awakened. That being what pushed him ahead of characters like big mom, shiki, and kaido and onto Roger’s level

As for big mom nobody really wanted smoke with her and her giant ass crew + territories. Even roger the pirate king himself rather be a bit sneaky and steal a copy of her poneglyph than go through an all out war against her. Probably because it’d just be a pain in the ass lol. Remember even shiki and his fleet were a big deal so I can only imagine trying to invade tottoland being even more annoying

Unironically she might have been deadass to strong and prepared to the point ain’t nobody wanted to deal with fighting her. With her essentially stun locking herself for decades unable to really grow stronger herself. Instead just lowkey getting fat, old, and kinda lazy since she spent so many years just waiting to do shit
Even when she was given opportunities to basically fuck up the balance whether it was getting the giants on her side or germa tech she got fucked over lol

Point is her being too strong and prepared essentially isolating herself accidentally stunted her growth. So instead of getting personally stronger achieving awakening she just got fat and old waiting because their was no real incentive

I’ve said it before but if they end up being a zoan them making a black blade makes sense too because I think death is a big aspect of achieving both awakenings
