Do you think that Sanji or Zoro will be Devil Fruit users in the near future?

Or perhaps one of them already is and we don't know it yet. I really don't think Zoro will ever eat a fruit, he just wants to be the best swordmaster in the world, no need for a devil fruit... but Sanji or Nami... I don't know.

Definitely none of them. I don't think Oda would make such huge changes to the characters. All of the characters that have been recruited were recruited with either no DF or had already eaten one. Plus, they do not need any of their skills enhanced. I don't know if Sanji and Nami necessarily care if they can swim or not since neither navigation nor cooking depends on the person's ability to swim, but I still find it unlikely since they already feel fairly confident in their powers. I just do not see it happening. Usopp maybe, but Usopp just wants to be a good sharpshooter and having a DF would not necessarily help with that so I do not know if he would risk it (but he might most of all, although I still find it unlikely).Starvtwalker 19:35, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

After seeing sanjis latest tequnique I would have to say there's not a shot in hell he's gonna eat a DF. I agree with the above comments that zoro wouldn't eat one and the only SH who might would be usopp, although it seems unecessary as he is a sniper.

No, none of the ones that don't have a DevilFruit will get one. A few of them (and probably only a few (I see Sanji, Zoro and Robin as the most likely possibilities, and MAYBE Usopp actually.) might develop Haki at one point (But conqueror Haki will remain exclusive to Luffy. (It only seems to be something charismatic people whod raw allies to them have, and the only Strawhat besides Luffy who could lay claim to that is Franky (Who did have a bunch of followers. But I don't really think Franky will be a Haki user at all (or need to be.)) But that's it.

So yeah... I COULD see Zoro improving his swordsmanship by mastering Observation Haki somewhere (much) later in the story) (So he'll be the ultimate counter-artist) and Sanji empower his kicks with Armament Haki (again much later in the story.) But that's the only remaining upgrade beyond 'just getting better at what they do' that I think they are likely to get.

So if there will be any new DF's on the Strawhats it'll have to be new crewmembers. Luffy wanted ten, and he currently has eight. (Well and the DF-using Caribou is on the ship at the moment, but I don't think they want a psychopath who buries people alive on their crew, and he'd just try to murder them in their sleep sooner or later, so... Not him. (To be honest I'm thinking Caribou may well be there as a sort of way of saying that there's NOT going to be a Logia user in the crew.)
