Kuzan needs you to keep a cool secret |
Name: Kuzan, formerly used the moniker "Aokiji" (meaning "Blue Pheasant")
Origin: One Piece
Gender: Male
Classification: Human, Logia Devil Fruit User, Former Marine Admiral
Age: 47 pre timeskip, 49 after the timeskip
Powers and Abilities: Super strength, speed, durability, endurance, agility, stamina, dexterity, extremely acute hearing (able to hear activity underwater, before the Whitebeard War began), master Haki user (Busōshoku Haki and Kenbunshoku), battle - precognition (via Kenbunshoku Haki), can surround his body with an invisible armor to augment his defensive and offensive capabilities (he can also imbue physical objects, such as his ice weaponry, with Busōshoku Haki), can harm and affect characters with elemental minicry, accomplished swordsman, ate the Hie Hie no Mi, a Logia type Devil Fruit that allows him to create, control, and become ice, in the elemental state it allows him to access his entire physical body genuinely becomes ice and endows him with the ability to freely disperse and reform as well as the capacity to regenerate (low-high, going by shown feats) his elemental body, is also able to control the durability of the ice his body is composed of in his elemental state (which is made evident when the Gomu Gomu no Bullet Aokiji took completely unguarded to his belly from Luffy didn't even put the slightest dent in his ice, despite that Nico Robin were able to break his ice body just moments earlier), he also has the extremely potent ability to freeze incredibly large targets (including opponents, large stretches of ocean or ground as well as tidal waves) by sucking away its heat, able to create ice weapons and fire them as projectiles as well as use them as melee weapons, the ability to jump incredibly high distances as demonstrated in the Battle of Marineford when he instantaneously zipped hundreds of meters above his seat in order to meet and freeze the tidal waves created by Whitebeard, small-scale weather/climate manipulation (changed the climate of Punk Hazard)
Weaknesses: Cannot swim and becomes immobilized if more than half of his body is covered in water (somewhat mitigated by his ability to freeze water), he's very lazy and rarely takes fights seriously
Destructive Capacity: Multi-continent level+ (capable of freezing massive portions of oceans and fully freezing tsunamis, his ten-day battle with Akainu also caused quite a bit of side effects [also permanently scarred Akainu], also easily froze and defeated Cracker)
Range: At least several kilometers, likely far higher (can casually freeze kilometer-tall and wide tsunamis, froze a large section of an ocean which likely reached to the bottom, also froze all of Chocolat town and some of the entire Cocao island if not all of it)
Speed: Relativistic with light-speed reactions (casually, with his hands in his pockets, stopped Doflamingo mid-attack when the latter was literally on top of Smoker, also casually intercepted two tidal waves and froze them both in an instant from initially being a kilometer away and stopped Whitebeard mid Murakumogiri swing and froze him solid), pre-cog further compliments his reactions
Durability: Multi-continent level+ via powerscaling (should be about as durable as Akainu, also took a kick from Marco), logia Intangibility and regeneration also makes him very hard to kill unless circumvented
Lifting Strength: Class T via powerscaling (comparable Akainu and Kizaru who could both stop Whitebeard from lifting his Murakumogiri)
Striking Strength: Class NJ (comparable to Akainu)
Stamina: Vastly superhuman+ (didn't show any signs of strain or fatigue after fighting the forces of the Whitebeard Pirates, including Jozu, for hours at the Marineford Battle, also continuously battled Akainu for ten days before their duel was settled)
Standard Equipment: A bicycle he rides across the ocean (after freezing the water in the way)
Intelligence: Highly adept and battle-hardened combatant with decades of combat experience, very accomplished in the use of his Devil Fruit ability, should be an exceptional battle commander and possess admirable strategic intelligence and tactical ability given his formerly held the rank of Admiral
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. It is currently unknown if Aokiji is 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 himself 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.
- Hie Hie no Mi (Chilly Chilly Fruit): A Logia type Devil Fruit that allows the user access to an elemental state of ice, where the user's entire body genuinely becomes ice and endows him with the ability to freely disperse and reform as well as the capacity to regenerate his ice body. Aokiji is also able to control the toughness of the ice his elemental body consists of, considering that even though Nico Robin was able to shatter his ice body, the theGomuGomu no Bullet Aokiji took completely unguarded to his belly from Luffy didn't even put the slightest dent in his ice. The major strength of the Hie Hie no Mi is that it not only allows its user to create, control, and become ice, but also endows its user with the ability to freeze; to suck away heat, giving its user a fearsome power in battle in addition to its great utility.
- Ice Age: Aokiji freezes a large section of the ocean or ground, causing everything in/on it (including people and other living beings) to be frozen as well. This process is nigh-instant, can affect massive areas, and can take weeks to thaw.
- Ice Time: Basically the same as Ice Age, with the difference that instead of being applied to the environment, it is applied directly to an opponent, freezing them solid. They remain alive for a while but a strong physical impact will shatter and kill them.
- Ice Time Capsule: Using his powers, Aokiji slowly encases his enemy in ice. It is undetermined if the enemy is killed or simply frozen in place.
- Ice Ball: Aokiji encases his opponent in a giant sphere of ice (note that this move does not freeze the opponent; it only surrounds them with above steel-hard ice)
- Ice Saber: Aokiji uses various small objects (such as blades of grass) and blows on them, freezing them into a sword made of ice which he uses in combat.
- Partisan: Aokiji shoots several spears at the opponent. Unlike Ice Block: Partisan, which are merely icicles, these spears are better shaped, featuring trident-like tips.
- Ice Block: Partisan: Aokiji creates several spears made of ice and then shoots them at the enemy.
- Ice Block: Pheasant Beak: Arguably the source of Kuzan's nickname. Kuzan releases a massive wave of ice in the shape of a pheasant in a single blast.
