Sorry for the long time it took me to reply. No real excuse I can think of, perhaps laziness will do.

At any rate, I really do find myself at a loss for words since this blog is an informative blog rather than one seeking some sort of answer from the repliers.

I'll try sharing my thoughts on each of the unique powers you've mentioned + the unoficially added "Rokushiki".

1. Marco's phoenix devil fruit sure is unique as it combines many different devil fruit abilities just like you mentioned. Nothing much to say here, badass indeed.

Baby 5's devil fruit does not really resemble a Logia type devil fruit simply because it's not intangible. There are specific forms from which she can reform herself. Buggy can recover from cuts and can separate his body at will, much like Luffy with blunt weapons. Although her devil fruit doesn't resemble those too much that's still the concept I believe.

As for Galdino (Mr. 3) and Magellan - the difference between them and a Logia is that they cannot become the element and can only produce it (I actually thought at first that Magellan was a Logia). Of course, they remind a Logia but I think that a Logia's most unique trait is their intangible form which grants them immunity to non-haki users (special cases such as water vs sand aside).

Daz Bones and Jozu can also resemble a Logia of sorts, however, I believe Logia devil fruits only consist of elements in their liquid form, hence granting them their intangibility. Bones and Jozu can both be defeated by non-haki users (special cases aside) as seen with Zoro vs Bones.

In general about devil fruits - they are the unique aspect of the One Piece world, without them One Piece would've been something else. Therefore, it's only natural for them to be unique powers and fighting abilities.

2. Haki is indeed a unique fighting ability for one to possess no doubt. Known especially for its unique ability to counter devil fruit powers. Not much to say about Kenbunshoku Haki that isn't already obvious enough. For a full view of my opinion on Conqueror's Haki please refer here if you haven't already and simply have lots of patience (or you are actually interested).

3. Nothing much to say about this one. Every swordsman creates his own unique abilities with the help of different kinds and types of swords, the most notable of which is Zoro's Asura (no clear idea how this one works really...).

4. Same as the above. Every sniper makes different uses of the title and has a wider range of weaponry than swordsmen. The most unique marksmanship would have to be Ussop's. I mean like, who uses flowers, trees and plants in general to fight. Must admit that I'm not too fond of Ussop's new fighting style and attacks...

5. Not really a fighting style but is used to create fighting styles and different abilities and has the widest and most diverse array of weaponry (Franky, Nami's Clima Tact I guess, Pacifistas, Smiley right?, SAD, aka artificial Zoan type devil fruits, etc.).

6. Fishman karate is unique to Fishmen (oddly enough) I guess. Mostly known for its extensive and useful use of water. Not much I have to say about.

7. Rokushiki is definitely one of the most unique abilities out there. The most useful of which are (by rank) - Soru, Geppo, Rankyaku, Kami-e (I kinda forgot about this one, kinda similar to Kenbunshoku Haki), Tekkai, Shigan (hate this one) and I'm not too sure what about Rokuogan as it seems rather controversial to me.

As for the rest of the unexplained abilities - not gonna get into them right now, I already have my own full list of unexplained things that I'm constantly annoyed with. Nothing I can add to your knowledge about them eitherway.

Anyhow, turns out I did have much to say XD... I didn't invest in this comment as much as I usually do, since it's kinda late here and I'm going on a 4-day trip tomorrow so I guess it's not as polished and refined as it could've been, but oh well, hope you'd find it sufficient.

I kept telling myself that I simply can't let you down after I promised you a finely made comment knowing that I won't be here for the next 4 days and then it would eventually be too late XD.

Lastly, I didn't read the blog all over again, just what I had memorized and bits and pieces whenever I needed so it might not be exactly to the point and lacking a few references.
