Eiichiro Oda Stuns with New One Piece Arc
Fans of One Piece, rejoice! The latest storyline from Eiichiro Oda, the world-renowned manga creator, is set to be a rollercoaster of excitement. The current ‘Egghead Island’ arc is teeming with unexpected plot twists. Leading the unpredictable turns is Jewelry Bonney’s transformation into Nika, drawing parallels to Luffy’s Gear 5 mode. However, the real question on everyone’s mind has to do with the scope of her Devil Fruit powers, which Oda has recently shed light on.
Understanding Jewelry Bonney’s Devil Fruit Powers
During the Q&A in SBS Volume 109, fans questioned Oda about the extent of Jewelry Bonney’s age manipulation abilities. To their surprise, Oda referred to a scene in One Piece chapter 1072. According to Oda, Bonney already expressed that the effectiveness of her abilities wouldn’t last forever on humans. Therefore, despite Bonney’s ability to manipulate her age with her powers, this manipulation won’t last indefinitely.
Confirmation beyond this came when Bonney was confronted by Dr. Vegapunk. She had transformed him into a child, and when he asked her to revert him back to his actual age, Bonney unravelled the temporary nature of her abilities. This statement gives fans their long-awaited answer into the functioning of Bonney’s powers.
Decoding the Mysteries of Bonney’s Devil Fruit
Bonney’s unique possession of her Devil Fruit powers differentiates her from other manga characters. Instead of the traditional route, her abilities were injected into her as an extract by Saint Jaygarcia Saturn. The Devil Fruit, named ‘Age-Age Fruit,’ is a paramecia type, marvelously used by Oda to manipulate the concept of age within the One Piece universe.
These powers aren’t solely limited to altering age. In fact, Bonney can venture beyond and transform inanimate objects. Moreover, her ‘Near Death Experience’ ability can momentarily simulate death for her opponents by morphing them into skeletons.
Complicating matters further is an additional power embedded within her Devil Fruit, the ‘Distorted Future.’ This skill enabled Bonney’s transformation into Nika. To employ ‘Distorted Future,’ Bonney must envision a future version of herself and have firm faith in her potential to transform into that version.
