There have been countless times when fans of this series have been left gaping in awe at the details that only Oda could dream up. Despite fan theories and speculations, One Piece continues to deliver surprises.
Most recently in One Piece chapter 1044, we witnessed a plot twist deemed the most iconic in the history of the series. Yes, Luffy's Devil Fruit Gomu Gomu no Mi (Rubber Rubber Fruit) turns out to be nothing but a century-long deception.
According to the latest revelations in One Piece's newest chapter, the Gomu Gomu no Mi is not just any ordinary Paramecia-type Devil Fruit. The Gomu Gomu no Mi is the ultimate Devil Fruit known as Hito Hito no Mi: model Nika, belonging to the mythical Zoan class, granting its user the abilities and properties of rubber, turning the user into a 'nika person'.
Red-Haired Shanks Has Been 'Deceiving' Readers for 20 Years
We all recall the Hito hito nomi: model Nika known as a Devil Fruit of Shanks and his crew taken from an enemy's hands. However, in an unexpected turn of events, Monkey D. Luffy accidentally ingested it. The story of Red-Haired Shanks saving Luffy when he ate this Devil Fruit and fell into the sea, losing his ability to swim and being attacked by Sea Kings, is a touching tale often mentioned by many One Piece readers.
However, with the latest development in One Piece chapter 1044, it appears that 'Uncle' Red-Haired Shanks truly values this Devil Fruit and gambles on activating its power in young Luffy. Shanks seems to hold the secret of the Devil Fruit Luffy consumed, as it is crucial, hence we understand his act of saving Luffy and betting an entire arm on what Shanks calls a new era. Thus, for the past 20 years, Red-Haired Shanks has kept this secret close and has 'deceived' all the avid readers.
