Rob lucci is probably the most regular guy in one piece that’s high up. No legendary bloodline, no crazy DNA,no mythical zoan, no cursed sword, no hax. Bro got where he is through sheer will and training, even to the point he overpowered the will of his zoan in its awakening, which is almost unheard of
world government is advance and they keep training their soldiers and even train all those devil fruit users to awaken their power. maybe the holy knights train them on how to awakened their fruits,
Really starting to seem like the requirement for safely awakening a zoan is to not overcome to will of the fruit, but to align with it. Lucci and Luffy both change personalities when awakened, yes, but it's more an amplification of existing traits rather than the introduction of new ones.
I think both aligning like you said AND having the mental fortitude to not be overwhelmed by it. Explains why people like Kaido and Marco haven't, and still matches what Kaido said about the restrictions.
@@GMan-yg9du well it is willpower, soooo by that logic if you have a strong haki your will power is strong too, which helps in not letting yourself being taken over by the DF
Honestly if you read or seen the canon cover stories, at lest pre-time skip Lucci had some sense of honor, considering her defended a village that showed them hospitality right after ennies lobby.
Lucci absolutely deserves respect for awakening his devil fruit, and not being able to beat G5 Luffy is hardly a point against him. But I'd hold off on that declaration about keeping his mind intact. Lest we forget, Luffy is also an awakened zoan, it's risky for him too.
I'd like to make a point that Enies Lobby was pre-time skip, so Lucci has had over two years to awaken his Devil Fruit, and while he has done it through training, Luffy awaken his Devil Fruit on the brink of death, so while Lucci is already cruel, Luffy decimated him bevause he relies on Gear 5 in life or death situations, which is why he went on the offense and Lucci got clapped.
Lucci most likely had his fruit far longer that 2 years I think he got his after killing those soldiers and pirates in the flashback because of his potential since he was like 14 when he did that but Kaku is way better he awakened his fruit and he ate it only during enies lobby showing the quickest known awakening in a little over 2 years at most but most likely he awakened during the time skip so he probably awakened in less than 2 years showing his love of giraffes and his immense devil fruit
I think Luffy is so much stronger because his haki mastery is leagues above Luccis, and his devil fruit is just better. I think Luffy would've one shot him if he seriously used haki. Just like Zoro did, but Lucci does deserve some props. If he wasn't so overconfident, he likely could've done some serious damage to the straw hats and vegapunk as a whole.
@@CheeseyyyyyyyYes Lucci had his devil fruit longer than 2 yrs. He was stating that it took him 2yrs to Awaken his fruit. Kaku never awakened his devil fruit on Enies Lobby, he learned that his fruit was a giraffe and learned to use by trial and error while fighting Zoro.
Luffy: Gear 5 Lucci: HOLD UP THERE'S FIVE OF THESE NOW??? edit: WHY ARE YOU GUYS STARTING A WAR IN THE COMMENTS DO YOU THINK ROB LUCCI KNOWS ABOUT THE VARIATIONS OF GEAR 4? ALSO THIS COMMENT WAS A JOKE CHILL OUT.
I saw a theory somewhere that said Lucci artificially awakened his df. Luffy's natural awakening has white smoke, while lucci and Saturn have black smoke
Someone theorized that the the smoke turns white if the will of the user and the fruits align, and that they are black if the wills don't align. This makes a lot of sense for kaido, yamato and luffy, where the color is properly matched by will of the user vs the zoan. But it's kinda curious what this would mean for luccy. maybe he has a secret goal that no one knows yet.
The Zoan Fruit requires the users to adopt the same mindset as the fruit in which its named after. It only makes sense that Yamato would be awakened, considering she's the Wano Guardian Deity.
@@raffaelgahleitner7350maybe the gear 4 was an exception, the smoke clouds from it is the steam luffy emits from his body by pumping blood to his blood vessels thus giving him a boost and making the rubber in him overheat. Isn't gear 4 just a combination of gear 2, gear 3 and Armament Haki?
@@sorena5542 yea but the smoke hanging around him at that time isn't flowing like the smoke from gear 2 too it's just the hanging there exactly like when he's in gear 5
Yamato isn't confirmed but she probably is considering she has the same sash as the other awakened zoans. It could be a design choice and she's not awakened but chances are she is awakened As for gear 4th, the thing around his neck is probably a steam from the air that he blows in his body
people saw Lucci get beaten and think he's just a weakling. just like how they think Kizaru is weak when he was gettin caught off guard the entire time and also conflicted about what he was doing. people like Kizaru and Lucci deserve their respect this arc
I think awakening zoans right means that you didn't just find it, but it found you. Like luffy, lucci likely got cat-cat fruit at a young age considering he is never shown eating it. With that I think comes the possibility of at an early time fruits can be attracted to people that align with them.
Crazy how he didn’t even do bad against Luffy, even after like 5 minutes of fighting gear5 he got up with minimal damage, idc what anyone says he’s a goat
Actually lucci got his devil fruit in ennies lobby that means he’s probably the fasted awakening ever, he awakened in a little under 3 years give or take that would make him well above a prodigy, leagues above anyone we’ve ever seen in terms of devil fruit understanding, I mean luff has had his since he was like what 9-10?, Kaido had his since his late teens to 20s, same for doffy, it’s still under debate if chopper is awoken or not but chopper would be similar to lucci since he’s still a kid, im sure there are a few other awakenings I’m forgetting but that truly makes lucci an unprecedented genius, I hope lucci becomes a side character similar to smoker eventually, because from the way him and luffy fought it seems like he’s grown to respect luffy at least as a rival, even if luffy is god tiers above him now
I think the color of the smoke is also an indicator of awakening. Luffys awakening was fueled by dreams and wishes while Lucci more was fueled by will and maybe sheer "force" through training. So there could be a forced will transformation and a wish based awakening, when you are in line with your devil fruit like Luffy
I heard people were upset that they used someone from so long ago because kaido was so good they didn't know what to do next but it seems to me they did. I mean clearly this man held a grudge lmao and that's an understatement but seriously he trained and is the only one so far to not be taken over and lose himself agter the awakening of his devil fruit tells me they have a lot more planned with him. Gotta catch up lol
Lucci is THE man. He had a similar grow rate to Luffy in those 2 years and awakened his fruit without op genetics and mentor like Rayleigh. He was already one of the most talented WG operatives pre time skip but he prooved that he is HIM.
SPOILERS!! I think that Lucci is more human than we give him credit for. While he's one of the most merciless one piece characters he STILL begged the Gorosei to try save Kaku which indicates that the reason he didnt lose his humanity to the DF awakening is because even now, he still has some.
I like the idea that, in order to successfully awaken a Zoan DF and keep your personality, you have to outmatch its will; it makes all the other Zoan awakenings make sense while still letting Lucci’s awakening be something extra-impressive.
It might have save his "crew" too. In their cover story, they were chased by the WG for their failiure in Enies Lobby. If Lucci awakaned his DF while fighting against the marine to not get captured, it coule’ve been a reason for the WG to be like "ok let’s use them not kill them" and promote them straight to CP0
Lucci is the one dude that went above to be doing the shit he was doing. Sure, he lost to Luffy, but he was strong as hell to even be able to survive taking body shots from Gear 5
Luffys DF risks him losing his personality which i think he kind of does when he goes gear 5, but i think his personality kind of overlaps with it so we dont see it as clearly.
Imagine awakening your fruit to avenge your defeat and still defeated by that person plus... defeated by the guy whos using three sword with "sense of direction"
I just realized joyboy/nika/luffy has that white smoke around him lucci has or had black smoke in one of the scenes he showed and so far none of the other awakenings i have seen has that smoke is lucci another one of the gods same with Yamato he/she (whatever you wanna call them) they had a blue looking electric smoke
I have a theory that what ever black magic forced awakening the 5 elders used on themselves they also used on select special forces in CP 0. That’s why lucci has black clouds like them
Awakened devil fruit, Haki and has the powers. Lucci is freakishly strong, he is a monster and 99.9% of peoole in One Piec would lose to him. The thing is he is no match for the Haki of a Pirate King so he gets slept soon as Luffy goes serious.
Man not gonna lie i just got to luffy first using gear 2 and it was still like i saw it the first time even tho ive seen hundreds of vids about luffys forms and stuff like that and when one piece gets revealed it will be the biggest reveal in the anime history so im tryna catch up to one piece now
Lucci:your gear 2 cant do anything to me now Luffy:gear 3!!! Lucci:hold up how the ever living fuck is there a 3?! Luffy:oh yeah theres 2 more Lucci:walahi im finished 💀
With all of this being said about Carnivorous Zoan Fruit Users Awakening their Devil Fruits, it could suggest that Blackbeard has always had the power of the Cerubus Mythical Zoan Fruit. It could be that the Yami Yami no Mi is actually the Cerubus Mythical Zoan Fruit, and to serve as a counterpart & foil to Luffy's Hito Hito no Mi. There's a pretty popular theory that the Yami Yami no Mi (aka Cerubus Mythical Zoan Fruit) has always had a side effect of exposing the darkest desires of the people around it, and that only those who are too weak to resist the temptation of darkness are possessed by the Fruit itself. Seeing how Zoan Fruit's have a will of their own, the Cerubus Mythical Zoan Fruit could actually be a demon that was cursed to be reduced to a Devil Fruit after doing something horrible in the past. Just a thought.
I respect lucci boldness 😎Even though luffy is too strong for him he doesn't afraid to fight him 😎 Even if lucci need to face KAIDO he will have no regrets on it😎😎😎😎😎
Lucci is the defination of mastery Litrally bro Dont have a op df Dont have op haki Dont have an op family Dont have op blood Doesnt belong to any op race Doesnt have any op weapon Still one of the strongest in the navy
