The man of Diamond |
Name: Jozu (sometimes translated as Jose or Jaws), epithet "Diamond"
Origin: One Piece
Gender: Male
Classification: Human, 3rd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, Paramecia Devil Fruit User
Age: 40 pre-timeskip. 42 post-timeskip
Powers and Abilities: Super strength, speed, durability, agility, endurance, expert Haki user (Busōshoku Haki and Kenbunshoku Haki), battle - precognition (via Kenbunshoku Haki), can use Busōshoku Haki to surround his body with an invisible armor to augment his defensive and offensive capabilities, can harm and affect characters with elemental mimicry, ate the Kira Kira no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit which allows the user's body to turn into diamond, allowing the user access to greatly enhanced durability as well as augmented damage inflicting capacity with physical offense by virtue of the user's adamantine body
Weaknesses: Cannot swim and becomes immobilized if more than half of his body is covered in water, Jozu now only has one arm, but we have yet to see how much this hinders him
Destructive Capacity: Continent level+ via powerscaling (given his physical orientation and that he was able to tango with Aokiji)
Range: Extended human melee range given his size (he is about twice as tall as an average man)
Speed: Relativistic with light-speed reactions (kept up with Aokiji in close-quarter-combat for an extended period of time), pre-cog further compliments his reactions
Durability: Continent level+ (tanked a slash intended for Whitebeard from Mihawk without so much as a scratch to show for it)
Lifting Strength: At least Class G+, likely Class T (was able to casually pick up and throw a one hundred and twenty-four million+ ton iceberg)
Striking Strength: Class YJ+ (comparable to Vista)
Stamina: Vastly superhuman+ (was able to battle competitively against Aokiji)
Standard Equipment: Nothing notable
Intelligence: Adept and battle-hardened fighter with decades of combat experience in the grim and feral New World, given his position as the 3rd Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates he should possess great strategic and tactical ability as well as extensive knowledge when it comes to naval warfare
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Haki: There are normally two types of Haki regular people can tap into: the Kenbunshoku Haki which allows individuals to sense the presence of others, and Busōshoku Haki which allows individuals to create an invisible armor around them. There is however a third type of Haki, Haōshoku Haki, that only a few individuals can use. Jozu is not one of these people.
- Busōshoku Haki (Color of Armaments): A form of Haki that allows the user to create an "invisible armor" around themselves. With that, they can protect themselves from attacks, and if trained well, use it to deliver stronger attacks. Besides the increase of strength, it is the only form of attack that doesn't involve Kairouseki that can hit any Devil Fruit user, being able to hit the user's original body even if it's a Logia user. It can also be used in weapons.
- Kenbunshoku Haki (Color of Observation or Mantra): A form of Haki that allows the user to sense the presence of his opponents. A user of this type of Haki can predict an opponent's moves before he gets hit. This works by showing the user an image or brief "premonition" of what the opponent will do, manifested as a mental image in the user's mind's eye, and the damage the user will take if the attack "hit" for real. It appears that the more killer intent the enemy has the easier they are to predict, though more efficient users can predict future moves regardless of whether there are ambient murderous intents or not. Including the distance, location, and where the opponent may strike next.
- Kira Kira no Mi (Glitter Glitter no Mi): A Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows Jozu to coat certain parts of his body or even his own body with diamond which significantly increases his physical strength and durability,
- Brilliant Punk: Jozu basically rushes into an enemy and slams his diamond-transformed forearm into them.
