One Piece Introduces the Newest Devil Fruit

As an observer with over two decades of manga reading under my belt, I must say that the Elbaf Arc in One Piece has truly lived up to the hype. The warm welcome by the Giants and the grandeur of the Owl Library have added a new dimension to the series, offering a glimpse into a world untouched by the World Government.

The introduction of Iku Iku no Mi and its bearer, Biblo, has been fascinating. As someone who has seen countless devil fruits in One Piece, it’s refreshing to see one that doesn’t involve combat but instead, promotes knowledge and understanding. The ability to gigantify books is not only practical for the Giants but also essential in a world where news dissemination isn’t as easy as it is for smaller races.

The backstory of Saul and his fellow Giants, especially their efforts to preserve Ohara’s legacy, has added depth to the characters and the arc itself. It’s a testament to the writers’ ability to weave complex narratives that keep readers engaged for years.

Lastly, I can’t help but chuckle at how fitting it is that in a world filled with combat-oriented devil fruits, Biblo’s fruit allows him to grow books instead of limbs or weapons. It’s a nice reminder that not all powers have to be destructive to be valuable. After all, knowledge is indeed power!

I’m absolutely thrilled to share that my beloved One Piece manga has finally kicked off its long-awaited Elbaf Arc! Luffy and our crew are all geared up, ready to embark on a new adventure in the Giants’ Kingdom. This secluded land is untouched by the World Government, making it a mystery waiting to be unraveled.

Rich in history and culture, this arc promises action-packed battles and intriguing lore that will keep us fans hooked. Ever since our encounter with Dory and Brogy in the Little Garden Arc, Luffy and Usopp have been dreaming of setting foot on this island. They hold the Giants’ warrior honor in high esteem and can barely contain their excitement to meet more brave warriors like Dory and Brogy!

As a longtime fan of One Piece, I am thrilled to see the story progress and unravel its mysteries. The Elbaf Arc has been particularly intriguing, with the crew finally arriving at the legendary kingdom after over two decades of adventures. What sets this arc apart is the warm welcome they receive from the Giants, a stark contrast to the usual hostility towards pirates.

The banquet held in their honor by the Giants adds an air of grandeur and camaraderie that’s seldom seen in the One Piece universe. Exploring the villages and stumbling upon the colossal Owl Library has only added to the excitement, as we eagerly await Chapter 1135 to shed light on its workings and the power behind it.

The introduction of a second new devil fruit in this arc piques my curiosity even more. However, what intrigues me most is the enigma surrounding the first devil fruit, which Loki consumed after slaying his father, King Herald. The lack of information about its nature and abilities has left us fans on the edge of our seats, eagerly awaiting its revelation.

Overall, the Elbaf Arc has been a refreshing change from the usual pirate shenanigans and has added depth to the world of One Piece, leaving me eager for more!

Warning: Spoilers from the latest One Piece Chapter 1135 ahead!

One Piece Chapter 1135 Introduces Iku Iku no Mi

Following his heartfelt meeting with Robin, Saul leads the Straw Hats on a tour of the village. Upon their arrival at the colossal Owl Library perched above Warriro’s Spring in Elbaf, they find it packed with books that Saul had salvaged following the unfortunate Ohara Incident. The library is managed by Biblo, a giant owl who serves as its chief librarian. Biblo possesses the Paramecia-type ability known as Iku Iku no Mi, or Grow-Grow Fruit, which enables him to enlarge any standard book within the library so that the giants can read them comfortably. Although not designed for combat, this fruit aids the giants in accumulating knowledge about various islands.

In Elbaf, giants are the only inhabitants, whereas the other islands house people of smaller stature compared to them. Biblo, an ancient entity, has reached an age that remains a mystery. Unlike other regions, Elbaf doesn’t have news outlets distributing newspapers due to its independence from the World Government. Nevertheless, Saul clarifies that thanks to Biblo’s unique powers, they can decipher tiny newspapers obtained by fishermen during their voyages at sea. Lilith ponders whether Biblo might be a Growth Owl who has consumed the Iku Iku no Mi, and she believes this power would be ideal for the Giants.

As a towering figure, standing at approximately 20 meters tall, I often find myself unable to reach many everyday things in human-inhabited islands. The unfortunate event that transpired in Ohara left a deep impact on me and my fellow colossal beings, prompting us to preserve its legacy against the tyranny of the World Government. In my pursuit of understanding more about the mysterious Void Century, I delved deeper into the archives of Ohara. Had it not been for Biblo’s extraordinary abilities, all my tireless efforts in retrieving those precious books would have been in vain.
