In the manga One Piece 1085, the creator Eiichiro Oda confirms that Kurohige’s devil fruit power has reached the level of Awakening. This information is revealed through the latest clues presented in the chapter. But what is the evidence that the Yonko who just defeated Law has reached the Awakening level? Read on to find out.
In Chapter 1046, Kaido gives a hint of how someone can reach the Awakening level. According to him, Awakening occurs when the mind and body can utilize the best potential of the devil fruit. Interestingly, some characters who have shown Awakening have personalities that are similar to their devil fruit power.
First, there’s Law who ate the Ope Ope no Mi devil fruit, whose ability is related to surgery. Surgery itself is one of the medical sciences, which is in line with Law, who is a doctor. Next is Doflamingo who ate the Ito Ito no Mi devil fruit, whose power is related to threads. His threads can control humans like marionettes, which suits Doflamingo’s character as a Tenryuubito who likes to enslave and control people.
Then there’s Luffy, who ate the Hito Hito no Mi model Nika devil fruit. Nika is a symbol of freedom fighter, which is very suitable for Luffy’s personality, who also likes to liberate slaves and nations from colonization. Therefore, Awakening occurs because the user’s personality matches the power of the devil fruit.
If that’s true, then Kurohige, who currently ate the Yami Yami no Mi devil fruit with the power of darkness, has already reached Awakening. The theme of darkness is very suitable for Kurohige, who is an antagonist in the story. He even always does something in a dirty way.
This means that Kurohige has actually reached the Awakening of his devil fruit. However, he does not show it because he feels that Awakening is not yet needed to defeat his enemies. These are some of the evidence from Oda to One Piece 1085 regarding Kurohige’s devil fruit power that has reached Awakening.
