Yeah, a lot of people are guessing that Akainu will have some sort of lava/magma-based power. Now, I wouldn't have minded this idea if we didn't already have a heat-based power with Ace. I'm actually kinda hoping that Akainu will have something more unique, like say, a blood fruit. He could use the blood in his body to form weapons and various tools (since after all, blood does contain iron. ) I'd guess that a blood fruit would give the user something like an extra heart (possibly more) to prevent the user from dying due to excessive blood loss.... And yeah, there's a chapter this week. The spoiler should appear by tomorrow, or at least later today.... |

Canon: Mera Mera no mi eaten by Ace which we all know Filler: Atsu Atsu no mi eaten by Don Achino from the Ice Hunter arc in the anime Now I'm not sure if this Devil Fruit counts as heat-based: Kachi Kachi no mi eaten by Bear King Personally with that Devil Fruit I hope they dub in English: the Forge Forge fruit because it looks like Bear King can heat his body so he can become harder much like a sword being forged. Anywho if there is more than one heat-based Devil Fruit, then it's possible that Akainu would have a lava/magma-based power. |

Eh, I've seen blood used as a weapon before in other mangas. For example, in Flame of Recca, one of the later villains, Hiruko, had a Madougu weapon that manipulated blood (it also acted as a second heart, which is where I got the idea for a blood fruit adding an extra heart). In part 5 of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, a villain named Risotto had a Stand called Metallica which directly manipulates the iron in blood (for example, he can make stuff like razor blades and scissors form inside another person's body to rip them apart from the inside out). I think that Oda can pull off a blood-based ability well enough in his own wacky ways... While a mirror would be the most obvious thing to use to defend against Kizaru's attacks, we don't really know how useful they may be. Chances are, he can amplify the power of his beams to the point that mirror shields are useless... |

So, instead of blood, I am going to say that Akainu will use Plasma abilities . This fits with the colour scheme by being a slight reference to blood plasma, but has nothing to do with blood. Plasma would be the ability to control ionized fields of gas, creating lightning, fire, nuclear fusion, etc. |
