One Piece
One Piece is a manga by Eiichiro Oda.
Plot[change | change source]
After accidentally eating a Devil Fruit, the Gum-Gum Fruit (Gomu Gomu no Mi), Luffy gains the unique ability to stretch his body at will, perform incredible leaps, possess phenomenal strength, and become bulletproof. The downside of eating this fruit with its extraordinary powers is that it prevents the user from swimming (which is rather inconvenient for a pirate).
Thus begins a true adventure on the Grand Line (the route all pirates must take if they want to find the One Piece), where Luffy, nicknamed the Straw Hat Pirate, travels from island to island with his crew.
Along the way, he recruits members for the crew: Roronoa Zoro the swordsman, Nami the navigator, Usopp the sniper, Sanji Vinsmoke the cook, Tony Tony Chopper the medic, Nico Robin the archaeologist, Franky the shipwright, Brook the musician, and Jimbei the helmsman.
Luffy isn't the only one in the crew to have eaten a Devil Fruit: Chopper, Robin, and Brook have also eaten one. Chopper ate the "Human-Human Fruit," which allows him to transform into three forms: animal form (reindeer), half-human form (half-reindeer, half-human), and human form (he remains a reindeer but has the form of a human). Thanks to the Rumble Ball, he can take on four other forms, and he must wait six hours before eating another Rumble Ball. If he eats three before the six hours are up, he transforms into a powerful but uncontrollable monster. Brook, on the other hand, ate the "Revive-Revive Fruit": he was dead, but thanks to this fruit, he was resurrected. Robin ate the "Flower-Flower Fruit": this allows her to grow parts of her body wherever she wants (useful when you don't have enough hands or want to eavesdrop on a conversation).
