Gear 5 is the best awakening, but this devil fruit absorption may compete with it

Luffy's Gear 5 has quickly become one of the most iconic transformations in the entire anime. This transformation was exploited after Luffy aroused his devil fruit during the events in Wano in A bit. There are not many devil fruits that can compare to it, but there is an awakening that can eventually come close to it and even rival tool 5 in the last story.

One piece: ODA reveals Yonko Crew Straw Hat Pirates Full Power

The Strawhatt pirates are powerful, but how do they compare with other powerful herds in one piece?

Lffy's devil fruit arousing turns him into nika

Gear 5 is a powerful form

For the majority of A bit Series, fans had no idea about the secret that Luffy's devil fruit contained. Once known as Gomu Gomu No Mi, or the rubber fruit, the fans now know that this devil fruit is actually called Hito Hito No Mi, model: Nika.

Nika Fruit Awakening led to Luffy unlocking his most powerful form yet, Gear 5, which he then used to finally take down Kaido.

“Just like the legendary sun god Nika from the fables in Elbaf, he also struggled with an elastic and stretch body.”

Gear 5 is probably the most powerful devil fruit that awakens in the series so far, and what makes it so powerful is its endless potential. The only limit to Luffy is his own imagination.

But there is another devil fruit that the fans know can go toe to toe with Nika Devil Fruit if ever awakened.

Mero mero no mi is an odd devil fruit

Hancock's awakening could put her in line with Gear 5

Mero Mero No Mi is Devil Fruit of the Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock, and can potentially have an awakening on par with Hito Hito No Mi, model: Nika. Since the revelation that Gomu Gomu No Mi is not what it was said to be before, many have speculated other devilish fruits in secret to have different names and forces.

Some think Hancock's devil fruit can actually be Hito Hito No Mi, Model: Medusa or Gorgon. Of course, this cannot be the case because Hancock's forces were replicated by green blood, which, as the fans know, works only with paramecia abilities. Anyway, Boa Hancock's devil fruit can get a deadly devil fruit. As it is, this fruit is already strong enough to take down 99% of the characters in the world. Even BlackBeard feared to be defeated by it and had to sneak on her to beat her.

One paragraph: ODA made just a huge mistake in the last chapter

ODA has made a mistake in the latest chapter in one piece – fans have been quick to point it out.

The fact that BlackBeard wanted his devil fruit, and that he only goes after the very strongest devil, means the great strength of this fruit. BlackBeard needs to know the truth about Hancock's fruitwear and what it means to have it.

When it comes to what Hancock's awakening can do, the simple logic with Paramecia is that it affects all surroundings other than the user. This would have devastating consequences. This means that everything around the user can be transformed into a desirable object for the enemy. In other words, Hancock can use the environment against their enemies and if they show some kind of desire at all they are ready for. For example, Luffy's love for all the food in Hancock's vicinity would be enough to turn him into stone and that is far too overwhelmed. If even abstract things, such as freedom, can be affected by this ability, no one can beat this invincible ability.
