[Theory] Donquixote Donflamingo's DF

[7th Biggest OP Fan]

Since we are getting closer to when he arrives on the island, I figure I would put my prediction of his DF out there.

I believe it is some kind of Puppeteer Devil Fruit. He has strings and the ability to control people. Not only that, his personality seems to be the guy in the background who manipulates things where he is and has his minions(puppets) do everything for him.


Some people will argue well how does he attack with his strings? It is a form of DF mastery he has made. He has strings to control people, why not use them to attack with also.

I think the strings what made him fly also. Being a puppeteer, he put the strings on himself and pulled himself up with them. When he was flying, his body looked weird, like he was a lifeless body being held up by something.

He was purposely drawn at the top so we could not see the strings holding him up.



Now if this is his DF, the following is a prediction of what is going to happen on the island.


I feel DF is going to use his power to control Luffy's Nakama and make them fight against each other, like he did in the Post Skypiea Arc. I think this is how he will be able to beat Luffy and the crew until the mysterious person appears to help them out. Luffy won't fight them and will get beat up purposely. Also, he won't be able to control Luffy because his haki will be able to stop the ability.


Trying to keep this short so what do you guys think?

it's possible and that would make it a Paramecia correct?

yes.

 

[lilzay2kay]

wow this sounds like it could happen

I think also he has strings because he can pull himself up, cut stuff and control bodies which all matches strings. Question is: Can he use it on any material or just on people?
Because if he can use it on anything then he might have flewn by grappling the clouds. Silly, but it's one piece

 

[SonictheHedgehog]

I think he can control mass or gravity. <3

 

[kmrasengan]

It sounds plausible, i also tought about him being like a puppeteer when he was shown controlling bellamy's nakama to attack him, he was waving his fingers like he was controlling him, like he was his puppet, so to me its very likely he uses strings to attack and control people, he cut off croc's head and Oz's leg with something resembling a string to me.

He would have to be able to if he was to fly like he did. He could use his strings like Spiderman, except hes more op because he can grab the air or clouds....OP logic.

He sliced Crocodiles head off as if using Cheesewire lol

"Thread Thread Fruit" as it seems.

 

[VongolaX]

ya, this thread has been made. If you go to Onepiece wiki, they'll show it. the game says his paramecia and from what we have seen in the manga, sites, and the onpiece gigantic battle game. It's all confirmed as strings

So the Wiki that people like you and me edit say it is a string DF. Would that mean the strings he has and how he can control people is part of his DF mastery, or do the strings just have this power. JUST being strings seems way to simple for what he can do with them imo.

I really like your prediction. It may just be true!!

I feel it's an obvious DF skill. Like his hands are able to produce razor sharp strings that attach to things, a bit like spiderman but with OP logic. I think Luffy will be the first one so far to be able to see the strings

I do not believe he has that kind of devil fruit power, but it is certainly possible. Though I really liked your prediction about the battle, and I would love to see that happen.

 

[shri3kbat]

I wanna see Doflamingo use the puppeteer ability on Law and Luffy and have them fight each other

that's exactly what I fear.. we saw how easily he controlled Jozu in the war, so why not the SH's or Law.

Well I think most people by default referred to his DF as stringing or playing puppeteer. I mean he was manipulating people with just moving his fingers, so it's difficult to not consider him a puppeteer, so that's not something new. Now remains the issue what is now actually the concept of his DF? Every DF is based around a certain concept and I find just 'stringing' a bit stupid, I mean we already saw that the first time he was introduced. Those 'strings' are not visible and as far as I know don't even exist in a physical form.

So I think the stringing is just an application of the DF, but still the original DF is something slightly different. Well I just think that because just stringing seems a bit dull after having waited so long to know the answer.

It's not like it's supposed to be the biggest mystery in the world.. And the strings could be so thin that they appear invisible until someone really focuses on them.
If they aren't "real strings" and just.. I dunno, some force able to move limbs, then it doesn't fit with his slicing, and strings is the only theory that puts all the pieces together
