The latest chapter of One Piece 1085 has finally revealed how Marshall D Teach, also known as Blackbeard, stole Devil Fruits from other characters. The mystery that has been surrounding his ability to obtain these powerful fruits in such a seemingly easy manner has finally been uncovered by Eiichiro Oda himself.
Contrary to popular belief, Oda Sensei confirms that Blackbeard’s Yami Yami no Mi Devil Fruit was not responsible for his ability to steal other Devil Fruits. Rather, Blackbeard learned a special method from the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia book that allowed him to do so.
As fans of the series know, Blackbeard has used this ability to enhance the combat abilities of his crew by providing them with various powerful and compatible Devil Fruits. He also used this method to obtain the Paramecia-class fruit Gura Gura no Mi, which was previously wielded by his former captain, Shirohige.
Oda Sensei surprised fans when Blackbeard was shown to be the only person capable of consuming two Devil Fruits, which would normally result in a fatal explosion. This led many to speculate that it was the absorption ability of Blackbeard’s Yami Yami no Mi that allowed him to do so. However, it was later revealed that Blackbeard had developed a method of stealing Devil Fruits that was not widely known.
While Blackbeard has the ability to absorb the powers of Devil Fruits, he cannot transfer these powers to others due to the nature of the Yami Yami no Mi. Therefore, the method that Blackbeard has developed is entirely unique to him.
Devil Fruits in One Piece can reincarnate if the person who consumed them dies. The fruit will then seek out the nearest fruit to inhabit, taking on the appearance and abilities of the original Devil Fruit. Blackbeard utilized this reincarnation method to his advantage by manipulating the location where the fruit would reincarnate.
Blackbeard would wrap a black cloth containing an apple around the person before they died, which allowed the powers of their Devil Fruit to transfer to the apple. This method allowed Blackbeard to control where the fruit would reincarnate by placing it near the dead individual.
Oda Sensei had given various hints about this method prior to the revelation in One Piece 1085, such as when Blackbeard stole Shirohige’s Gura Gura no Mi. Fans were left in awe as they finally uncovered the truth behind Blackbeard’s ability to obtain Devil Fruits.
In conclusion, Blackbeard’s ability to steal Devil Fruits was not due to his Yami Yami no Mi, but rather through a unique and complex method that he had developed. The mystery has finally been solved, and fans can’t wait to see what other surprises One Piece has in store for them.
