Kizaru is an admiral who is also among One Piece’s most powerful characters. There’s still a lot to discover regarding his Devil Fruit powers.

The Marine Admirals always rank among the most powerful and terrifying members of One Piece. Borasalino, also known as Kizaru (Yellow Monkey), is one of these Marine admirals who holds the terrible Devil Fruit power. After Luffy punches a Celestial Dragon, he is presented in the Sabaody Archipelago Arc and clashes against with the Worst Generation as well as the Straw Hat Pirates. Kizaru demonstrates why the entire planet is afraid of hurting a single hair of the Celestial Dragon in order to avoid calling a Marine Admiral.
He easily defeats powerful pirates on his own. He causes a lot of difficulties for Luffy as an antagonist, in the context of Sabaody Archipelago and during the Summit War. Even to this day, Kizaru is a tough character to interpret, and his Devil Fruit is confusing. His abilities contain the light element, making him one of the series’ most fearsome characters. The complicated numerous procedures appear to go beyond the capabilities of any common logia fruit. Here’s an explanation of his Devil Fruit skills.
What is Kizaru's Devil Fruit, and also what abilities does it give?
Kizaru possesses an “Pika Pika no Mi,” a logia-type Devil Fruit with the ability to create, control, and convert into light. In the English version, the fruit is referred to as “Glint-Glint Fruit,” and he consumes it in his early forties. The Devil Fruit user transforms into a “Light Human,” acquiring the ability to move at the pace of light and use reflection-based transportation. Surprisingly, Kizaru describes Luffy’s Gear 2 mode as “extremely slow.” He can launch massive attacks on his opponents as he can travel at the pace of light and blast energy beams from his fingers.
He utilizes this ability in an attempt to prevent the Heart Pirate from rescuing Luffy and Jinbe. Doctor Vegapunk investigates his Devil Fruit’s varied capabilities and re – creates Kizaru’s laser bolts in the Pacifistas, then again in Seraphim. Franky from the Straw Hat Pirate and Queen from the Beast Pirate both use this technology. Franky rebuilds himself throughout the time skip utilising this technology, enabling him to shoot beams merely by placing both his palms together. Queen also incorporates this technology into his lips, allowing him to project laser beams while morphing into his full brachiosaurus appearance.
Techniques of Pika Pika no Mi
Kizaru’s signature technique involves lifting his foot and imbuing it with light; his stance when doing this technique is very similar to Sanji’s. The light is then released as a beam from the bottom of his foot, causing a massive explosion when it hits the target. The technique in the series has no name, but the video game does., ” “You’re Dying Now,” as the title of “One Piece: Burning Blood” suggests. Kizaru can also make light in his palms and reflects it off any surface; he then changes himself into light to get where he wants by utilizing the “Yata no Kagami” technique. He employs this approach first against Scratchmen Apoo, then against Rayleigh. It’s one of his most destructive skills, since it allows him to not only conjure light out of thin air, but also strike from everywhere.
The method is known as “Sacred Yata Mirror,” after the sacred bronze mirror that seems to be part of Japan’s Imperial Regalia. Kizaru can also utilise “Amaterasu,” which translates as “Heavenly Light.” Although it has no name in the series, it is mentioned in “One Piece: Pirate Warrior.” Kizaru activates the technique by bringing his middle and index fingers together and pointing them towards his opponents, emmitting a bright flash of light that blinds his targets or anybody in the area. Furthermore, his “Ama no Murakumo” skill, which basically means to “Sword of the Gathering Clouds of Heaven,” enables him to create a sharp and lasting sword of light. Finally, his technique “Yasakani no Magatama,” which translates as “Comma Gem of Eight Shaku,”
Kizaru unleashes this technique while crossing his arms and firing a flood of lethal light particles with both hands. Kizaru can use this attack to target a single individual or to cover a large area. His skills are all influenced by Japan’s Three Sacred Treasure or Shinto deities. In addition to these techniques, the video games include two non-canon techniques: “Ama no Iwato” and “Three Sacred Treasures.” Ama no Iwato translates as “Cave of Heaven Rock,” and it is here that Kizaru fires a gigantic laser beam in the shape of a monkey head. An other technique is a combination of all three techniques in which Kizaru utilises Yasakani no Magatama on the ground, launches his enemies into the air, and then attacks them while they are in midair with Yata no Kagami. Ultimately, he slams them back to the ground with Ama no Murakumo.
Pika Pika no Mi's Strengths and Weaknesses
Kizaru has extremely quick reflexes, allowing him to avoid his opponent’s strikes by swiftly transforming into light and moving to another location. When travelling at light speed, he is practically undetectable to his opponents, unless they use a very upgraded Observation Haki. Unfortunately, it takes him a few seconds to attain the momentum of light, leaving a gap for strong opponents to exploit. While average fighters cannot counterattack Kizaru, a powerful individual such as Silvers Rayleigh may prevent him from achieving full speed with a simple slash of the sword.
Kizaru has the ability to frighten everyone who lives in the Sabaody Archipelago (except Rayleigh, thanks to his unparalleled strength and haki). As a logia user, he is especially vulnerable to Haki-infused strikes. Because he is a light human, some of his attacks, such as his laser beams, can only go in straight lines, making them easy to dodge for speedy opponents. Kizaru, like any other Devil Fruit user in One Piece, has weaknesses to saltwater and sea prism stone, in addition to a few other disadvantages.
