The Seraphims, created by the brilliant Dr. Vegapunk, are formidable Pacifista. Their significance in the final saga of One Piece is notable, and their role is set to expand as the story progresses. The first Seraphims encountered by fans were S-Snake and S-Hawk during the invasion of Amazon Lily. Subsequently, in the Egghead Island arc, fans were introduced to other Seraphims like S-Bear and S-Shark.
In One Piece chapter 1086, several new Seraphims were introduced, capturing the attention of fans. Particularly noteworthy was the Seraphim associated with Sir Crocodile.
The Creation Of Crocodile's Seraphim
Crocodiles Seraphim is believed to have been created by Dr. Vegapunk, just like the other former Shichibukai members. The exact location of Crocodile's Seraphim is unknown, but it was confirmed to have been created on Egghead Island, as indicated by one of Vegapunk's bodies. The creation of Seraphim involves two key factors, with cloning being the first one. Dr. Vegapunk has mastered the process of cloning using the Lineage Factor, which holds the secrets of life and serves as the blueprint for creation. Through this power, Vegapunk was able to perfectly clone Crocodile and even create a younger version of him. Interestingly, the scars present on Crocodile's body are also present on his Seraphim, suggesting that the Seraphims are a younger version of the Warlords and inherit all the injuries of their parent bodies.
Green Blood, a recent creation by Dr. Vegapunk, is the second most important aspect of S-Croc's formation. This unique power stems from Vegapunk's discovery of the Lineage Factor and his manipulation of Devil Fruits. By extracting the Lineage Factor from Devil Fruits, Vegapunk synthesized his own blood, which when coursing through the veins of Seraphims, grants them abilities akin to Devil Fruits. This development is truly remarkable and has been witnessed by fans in the likes of S-Snake, S-Hawk, S-Shark, and S-Bear. Notably, S-Snake and S-Bear possess the same Devil Fruit powers as their original users.
For instance, S-Snake wields the Mero Mero no Mi, a power that turns anyone who expresses affection or attraction towards her into stone. On the other hand, S-Bear utilizes the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi, which has been flawlessly demonstrated during his time on Egghead Island. Vegapunk also extended this privilege to former Warlords who lacked Devil Fruit abilities. In the case of S-Hawk, he gained the Supa Supa no Mi, originally belonging to Mr. One of the Baroque Works. Similarly, S-Shark's power comes from the Sui Sui no Mi, a Devil Fruit previously possessed by Senor Pink of the Donquixote Family. Naturally, S-Croc will also have the Green Blood flowing through its veins.
The Devil Fruit Power Of Crocodile's Seraphim
Since Crocodile possesses a Devil Fruit power, it would be reasonable to assume that S-Croc would inherit the same abilities. However, this is unlikely to be the case because Green Blood, which is necessary for the creation of Seraphims, can only be produced from the Paramecia type of Devil Fruit. Vegapunk, the renowned scientist, has confirmed that reproducing logia abilities is an incredibly difficult and time-consuming task that requires substantial resources. Currently, he has only managed to recreate Mythical Zoan powers, which he believes can be Awakened, and Paramecia powers using Green Blood. Unfortunately, logia powers like Crocodile's Suna Suna no Mi cannot be replicated. Therefore, it is highly probable that S-Croc will possess a completely different Devil Fruit ability, which adds to the intrigue surrounding this character.
Although Green Blood is an integral part of all Seraphims, it remains uncertain what Devil Fruit ability Crocodile will wield. Fans are currently left in speculation, as there are several Devil Fruits that exhibit similarities to the Suna Suna no Mi. One such fruit is the Mori Mori no Mi, consumed by Admiral Aramaki of the Navy. This ability allows the user to extract the water content from living beings and rapidly dehydrate them through the use of roots. Unfortunately, this ability falls under the Logia type and cannot be utilized by Crocodile's Seraphim.
The Shibo Shibo no Mi, currently owned by Charlotte Smoothie, is a Devil Fruit that shares similarities with Crocodile's Green Blood ability. Smoothie can extract fluids from anyone, causing dehydration, and can also absorb moisture from the air to increase in size. However, it is unknown if Crocodile possesses this power, as there is no evidence that Smoothie has met Vegapunk or that her ability has been cloned. Therefore, the chances of Crocodile having the Shibo Shibo no Mi are low.
Another intriguing ability is the Sabi Sabi no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit consumed by Shu of the Navy. This power allows the user to induce rust on any metallic object, as seen when Zoro's sword, Yubashiri, was completely destroyed. While not the same as dehydration, this ability could be similar to Crocodile's Seraphim power.
Another fascinating power that Crocodile's Seraphim could possess is the ability to transform into anyone using Bon Clay's Mane Mane no Mi. Although there may not be an obvious connection between this Devil Fruit power and Crocodile's Suna Suna no Mi, it is worth noting that Bon Clay was once a subordinate of Sir Crocodile. This connection could potentially serve as the justification for Crocodile's Seraphim having the same ability as Bon Clay, especially considering that both characters were imprisoned in Impel Down together. If Crocodile's Seraphim were to possess this incredibly potent ability, it could potentially wreak havoc, particularly if it were to be unleashed on Egghead Island.
How Strong Is Crocodile's Seraphim
Crocodile's Seraphim will possess an immensely powerful Devil Fruit ability, despite its young age. It will inherit all the extraordinary abilities of the Lunarian race, boasting an impregnable defensive exterior that cannot be breached as long as the flames on its back continue to burn. Additionally, this celestial being will possess extraordinary offensive capabilities. Although the specific Devil Fruit power it will possess remains unknown, fans can undoubtedly anticipate remarkable feats even without it.
Fans are eagerly anticipating the future appearances of Crocodile's Seraphim in One Piece, as they possess a personality that closely mirrors their parent users. With the potential for ambition and guile, it is hoped that Oda will grant Crocodile's Seraphim a significant role in the ongoing narrative.
