Yup, but he was likely picked up before that ever happened. I don't know if we really know how long he's been down there do we?
Jack is quite a fighting material. Just something to boost up the level of power, stamina and so on for the likes of Luffy, Zoro, Sanji and Franky. Franky needs to catch on the monsters of StrawHats.

Even though not (yet) explicitly stated, I think there's little doubt Jack has fishmen genes. Same thing for his DF; it's not explicitly said it's a regular one, but the way they were talking about it, makes it pretty certain. And even if it was artificial, it's certain that Jack is completely immobile at the bottom of the sea, so it being artificial or not is actually not relevant in this case.

DF on itself don't drown someone, they make the eater a hammer in water, which will lead to drowning as he can't swim, unless of course you can breath under water. And who an breath under water? Fishmen.

Mammoths don't have teeth like that and even though it's not impossible for a human to have such teeth, they are rather characteristic for a fishman.
i dont think he be a fishmen as he doent have the skin type or any other chrateristic of one just having sharp teeth doesnt mean he a fishmen and devil fruits make a person not able to swim and they lose their power in water vander decken was a fishmen with a fruit and he was pefectly fine in the water jack wasnt

Damn dude that's disgustingly racist.

Also you're wrong on van der Decken's part since he was always in a bubble and when he wasn't he was immobilized. Show me a panel where he is in the water and being fine.

Somebody didn't pay attention during the Fishman island arc. Racism among Fishman was kinda a big deal, you know "don't mix with humans" "Don't use their blood". Being a pure fishman. Kinda ironic that you're calling me a dumbass while you're the one that doesn't know what you're talking about after bringing up the subject.

Point is, that you can be a fishman, without having the 'skin' of a fishman. Delinger is a fishman, Kokoko is a mermaid. And so is Jack.

And you're wrong about the bubble too. Also wrong about the whole body structure, that's just something you made up lol.

The bubble kept him from coming in contact with water and immobilizing him. Remember the final battle with Luffy vs Hody ? Luffy used a coral bubble to create a bubble around himself too in the same fashion. That allowed him to fight in the water, otherwise he would've lost his power. During one of his Gear 3rd attacks he had to move his arm outside the bubble and said "I feel my power draining" Meaning that his DF body can't deal with the energy of the sea.

All in all 10/10 reply man, didn't get a single thing right. But hey at least you got to call me a dumbass. On top of that you gave me negative rep 'for being an idiot', I can only imagine how ashamed you must be after reading this. Probably cringing behind your little computer wishing you never opened that big fat mouth of yours.

Delinger's half human-half fighting fish Jack's probably half and half too since besides Wadatsumi no fishman has shown that much of a human appearance and not been half/half. .

just the word of a man with no life mixing reality and fantasy and i didnt only say skin i also said charateristic such as the fact that dellinger wasnt a fishman he was half fighting fish kokoko was a mermaid who tail split allowing her to live/pose as a human and you have no proof that jack a fishmen so until proof is shown then he is not a fishmen and you can compare luffy to vander their body is different

Just because you lost the argument on all fronts, doesn't really mean that i've got no life. You're grasping at straws trying to insult me because you've dug yourself in a hole. Sad.

Dellinger being a fighting fish does make him a (Hybrid) fishman, a mermaid is also merfolk. And Jack being alive on the bottom of the sea with shark teeth is all the proof I need to know that he is a fishman. You can't expect Oda to take you on his lap and read the story to you because you're lacking in the brain department.

Please show me a page where they explain why van der Decken's body is different. But you'll probably come with a bullshit reply that you're not going to do it because 'omg lul kid can't you see how his body is different'. I'll just refer to my previous answer. Their body isn't different, at least not in the eyes of the sea spirits. They both still sink like a hammer thanks to their abilities. That is the reason why they're in a bubble. If you disagree, post a scan for once instead of running your mouth.

pro-tip: keep rubbing in this stain.

Uzumaki Sensei, what a funny name for someone that keeps getting schooled.

Wrong on all fronts. It has already been said, but let me emphasis it a bit more.

1) He breaths under water and has a mouth, meaning his teeth and lips, that is highly characteristic for a fishman (no shortage of examples here: Hody Jones, Arlong, Dellinger...). There really aren't many entities that fit those criteria. The fact that hybrids exist in the OPverse, makes this something so plausible to the point the majority of the readers already accept it as truth.

2) We know for a fact that there is an enormous amount of variation in the fishmen gene pool, let alone when you add a human in the mix. Dellinger was a hybrid, yet you couldn't see at all physically he was one and he was able to actually let his teeth and dorsal fin grow out. So your argument about skin type is nonsense and invalid. People are talking about Jack being a half and half, but it's very well possible he's 1/4th fishman or even less. It's easily possible that after so many generations the amount of fishmen genes is so low that appearance and ability wise there's not much to see anymore.

3) DF make people hammers in water, it makes them lose all their strength, which leads to them drowning. Fishmen however can breath under water. Vander Decken was living in a bubble because of this. Seriously. Also Jack was doing pretty fine other than not being able to swim, so you're majorly contradicting yourself here.

first off how that racist it a charater in a manga dont try to mix real life with fantasy dumass and there nothing to rascist about except for his teeth he resembe nothing like a fish man and second the bubble kept him afloat that all it did he was able to brethe underwater because he was a fishmen whose body structure is different thn a human
If he was that fine in the water, he wouldn't need a bubble. This doesn't even make sense what you say.

just the word of a man with no life mixing reality and fantasy and i didnt only say skin i also said charateristic such as the fact that dellinger wasnt a fishman he was half fighting fish kokoko was a mermaid who tail split allowing her to live/pose as a human and you have no proof that jack a fishmen so until proof is shown then he is not a fishmen and you can compare luffy to vander their body is different
Dellinger is a fishman hybrid. This is a fact or did you now seriously believe there was once a drunk human that messed around with a real fighting fish? Even for the OPverse that's ridiculous. Dellinger is a descendant of a fighting fish fishman, just like how Hody Jones is a white shark fishman and Hacchi is an octopus fishman. Despite being part fishman, no one thought he was one till he pulled out his teeth and fin.

We have proof, we have given you proof, which you were completely unable to even remotely invalidate. On top of that it makes perfect sense. Tbh I don't even get why you are so adamant about not wanting to accept this as your denial is rather unsightly and the manner you tried to discredit this strong possibility even more. This really isn't a dubious, highly subjective and baseless matter, but one of those things that's almost so certain that confirmation is only a formality.

And even if you were to disregard almost all proof and common sense, you are still completely unable to explain the reality that if he isn't a fishman, how it is he's actually breathing under water. I think you're just cranky that your own hypothesis got immediately shot down, sank and did drown.

It was a topic in the flipping manga turd blossom, racism among fishman is a thing. I'm not making this up. Just because you two illiterate dumbshits can't understand a joke doesn't mean I've got a mental illness. That's the same exact strategy as Uzumaki Sensei tried to pull. Trying to discredit someone with personal attacks after having ZERO arguments that stick. It's such a weak and obvious card to play. If you don't understand that it's supposed to be funny when I say that it is racist because you can't tell if he's a Fishman from the color of his skin, then you should just reread the Fishman island arc again instead of calling me stupid or mental.

This coming from the guy who stalks my posts by giving negative rep and dislikes while you're not even in the discussion. What a sad piece of shit. It means nothing that you agree with him if you look at your post history and thread history, either you're the world's worst troll or you know nothing about One Piece and you should just stick it to Naruto.

Besides in your brilliant 4 sentence post you first say I totally agree with you, followed by I agree with most of your points. Can't even go 4 sentences without disagreeing with yourself. .

How about coming up with an argument for once instead of bitching about everything, you add nothing to the discussion.

until oda says he a fishmen then he not a fishmen all you have are your opininons and thoery nothing has beeen proven
Until Oda says he's not a fishman he is a fishman, because that makes more sense for a person with shark teeth on the bottom of the sea. Don't try to force stupid logic upon the rest of us. You go wait until Oda spoon feeds you the information, the rest of us will be a step ahead. Or probably multiple in your case.

Also it's one fishman and multiple fishmen, get it right sensei.

P.S. Sensei, where are the panels about the different body structure of van der Decken, where is the manga scan of his bubble not being there to protect him from the seawater ? I can't wait for that "Oda explanation" you must have for those 'opininons and thoery' (your spelling not mine) you had.

That's BS. The fact that you couldn't formulate a single descent argument and responded with this after your face got pressed onto the facts, is really pitiful. In particular because you're the one who made this thread to provide an explanation as to how it is Jack's not dead, which got consequently invalidated and replaced by a much more credible alternative.

Yes we can't claim that this is a 100% fact till Oda confirms it, however that doesn't take away we are very well allowed to assume this is most likely true simply because it makes all the sense in the world and there as ample proof to support it.

I really don't get why you are so obstinate about this as it can be objectively stated that probability of this being true is incredibly high. So replying with nonsense like this after you were incapable of neither providing counterarguments nor invalidating supporting arguments, is just another way of saying you're trying to weasel your way of the predicament you worked yourself into, but attempting to make it appear less obvious.

Not to mention I can't be entirely sure of this, but I don't think it has ever been specified which species he then is, not even human. So you're just trying to pull a Schrödinger's cat here, which is plain stupid.

then all what you have posted and wasted energy and time on it

it's just assumptions ( as you said )

Oda didn't confirm it , so no winner here in the discussion

Believe it or not, but some people aren't interested in winning discussions. It's all about enjoying guessing, enjoying making possibilities of after certain event/story. When people say "perhaps", "maybe", that's all. They don't care if they are right either. I don't care if I was right that this and that will happen.
