the only one i can consider to have mastered their devil fruit power is crocodile. he trained to use devil fruit powers by reflex. he is better in a desert battle and he has the ability to turn his surrounding into a desert. he learned to use his ability to counter disadvantanges. for example he is weak against water but learned how to suck water out. which gets me wondering. when luffy wet him couldnt he put his hand on himself and sucked the water out of him? admirals yes they are strong because they learned to use their powers to their fullest. like Aokiji turning into ice to take a hit and not getting hurt. this is something you learn through experience. and luffy is getting there. because he is proof that just being strong and having devil fruit powers is not enough to be the strongest.
