This article contains spoilers from the Elbaf arc of One Piece.
a piece The Final Saga focuses heavily on the story's biggest and most powerful antagonist, Saint Emu Nerona. Fans know the Emu to be incredibly powerful, as Oda's recent display of their power in God Valley reinforces the fact that they are undisputedly the strongest in the world at this time. At this time, the emu seems truly unbeatable. If someone like Rocks D. Xebec couldn't match them, there's no way any pirate in the current era could.
However, in the world a piecePowers can often be countered in unexpected ways. Even the weakest ability can usually make a counter against a stronger power, as Devil Fruit interactions play a significant role in the story whether Hawkeye exists or not. The emu certainly seems invincible in a pieceBut the fact is this Their power is easily counteredAnd Oda revealed its truth 18 years ago. Much of what Oda says in the story is lost in translation, sadly, but the key to beating Emu is revealed by the author long ago.
Oda revealed the counter to Emu's power 18 years ago
18 years ago, one of the most important battles a piece happened, and it was important to establish one of the biggest villains in the entire story. This fight broke out a piece Chapters 440 and 441, and it makes Gol d. Portgas son of Roger d. Ashley Rocks d. Zebeck's son Marshall d. Seen competing with Teach. In this battle, Oda went on to reveal one of the most terrifying powers of all time, and that is the power of Yami Yami no Mi. Through this power, Blackbeard was able to cancel Ace's No Mi abilities. However, there is a major difference between the original translation and the English translation of this chapter.
That's right, another thing that sucks at my ability is the power of Satan! – Blackbeard, One Piece Chapter 441
In the English translation, Teach tells Ace that his powers can absorb all Devil Fruit powers. However, the actual statement does not mention Satan's fruits. Instead, Teach clearly states that Yami Yami no Mi can absorb Satan's power. Given that The emu is the devil of a fragmented worldIt's pretty clear that Oda was foreshadowing the fight between Blackbeard and Emu, where the former would discard all his power with Yami Yami no Mi.
Blackbeard can nullify Emu's demon power
Emu's powers are monstrous in nature and Oda has established it in one piece. Emu gives evil powers to others, and on top of that, fans are also well aware that they have abilities like demonic pacts. It should come as no surprise to anyone that the emu is the devil of a piece of the world. But, more interestingly, Oda revealed how to beat emu 18 years ago, and it all comes down to one devil fruit.

Interestingly, Rax was looking for two Devil Fruits in particular, and he believed that a legendary Devil Fruit was in Elbaf. Harald wanted to eat one, while Rox wanted to eat the other. putting two and two together, The two Devil Fruits were the Yami Yami no Mee, which he wanted to eat, and the Nika Fruitwhich he wants Harald to eat.
