For you who love One Piece
Hello.
This time, it's in One Piece.Why are there so few fishermen with the ability of devil's fruit?I have been thinking about the following.
I think that if a fisherman, who is stronger and has superior physical abilities than a human, is given the ability to produce the devil's fruit, he would be a force to be reckoned with.
I have a general idea, but I have given it some thought based on the information that is now available.

What happens when you eat the devil's fruit in the first place?
It is no longer a compulsory education level story, but eating the devil's fruit in exchange for gaining powerful powers.I'm going to be a canard.The following is a list of the most common problems with the
It is not only that he cannot swim, but it seems that when he enters the water, he loses all strength in his body and becomes unable to do anything.
Once in the water, it is not only weakened but also leads directly to death unless it is saved, which is a very heavy disadvantage for the ability holder.
Fishermen don't eat devil's food?
Unlike humans, fishmen can live on land or in the sea. Because they breathe gills, they can operate normally in the sea.
If a fisherman, who can work in the sea, eats a devil's fruit that turns him into a cannery if he eats it, he may still not be able to swim.
However, as mentioned above, fish people can breathe in water, so it is unlikely that they will drown even if they cannot swim.
However, it would not only make it impossible to swim, it would make it impossible to act,It could end up doing nothing and leaving you sinking.I'm not sure.
In fact, what would happen if a fisherman who ate a devil's fruit entered the sea as it is is not directly depicted in the book, so it is only a consideration.
But there is one exception.
The only fisherman who ever came out was Vanderdecken, who was capable of the devil's fruit.
Despite his being a fisherman, he acted in a shabbon when he entered the sea, perhaps because of his abilities.
After all, it may be reasonable to assume that they were in the Shabbon because they would not be able to act once they were in the water.
It's the fish people's number one advantage to be able to act underwater.
Maybe there's no advantage for a fisherman to become a gifted one in the first place.
If you think about it, becoming a competent person is a unique strength of the fisherman.The loss of the "can act underwater" point would be a very negative factor for the fishermen.I think.
Another strength is that his "arm strength is stronger than humans," but in the world of One Piece, where there are many absurdly strong characters, it is hard to feel that this is such a strength.
After all, underwater is a very big factor for fishermen.
If you weigh the advantages of "being able to fight underwater" and "gaining abilities on land," the true nature of a fisherman is to be utilized underwater, so I wonder if he would try to gain abilities without losing his advantages.
However, it seems that there are many situations where eating the devil's fruit is like a gamble, where you don't know what ability you will gain, so maybe there are no fish people who willingly eat it.
Vanderdecken was able to do whatever he wanted with his abilities, so that idea might be possible (although what he was doing was ghastly).
But I don't know if it will appear in the future.
There may be more fishmen with abilities in the future, just not many right now.
I think there are some settings that have yet to be revealed, so perhaps there will be some advantages that only a gifted fisherman can offer.
As expected, if it were set up that "because he is a fisherman, he can swim even if he is gifted", it might be a good thing to break the balance (lol).
It would not be an exaggeration to say that water is the weak point of the ability.
