Devil Fruit is a sacred object that can give power to the eater in One Piece. However, not everyone in the series wants to eat the fruit. (Photo: CBR)
A number of characters in this series feel they don’t need the power of the fruit. Besides being strong thanks to Haki, there is one factor that makes them reluctant to eat the fruit. The factor is that the fruit will make the eater unable to swim. Some characters feel it would be strange for pirates to not be able to swim.
Some of the strongest characters in this series are even stronger without eating the devil fruit. So, they felt there was no point in eating the fruit if they were already strong—even considered the strongest. Which character doesn’t want to eat a Devil Fruit? Check out the following review!

4. Buggy
Buggy had actually eaten the Bara Bara no Mi. But, he ate the fruit by accident. Buggy ate the fruit when he was still a member of Gol D Roger and a ship with Shanks.
For Buggy, eating Devil Fruits was foolishness for a pirate. The main reason was because the fruit would make him unable to swim. Hence, he did not want to eat the fruit. He also regretted ever eating it.
3.Franky
Franky was recruited by Luffy when he was at Water Seven. Recruitment seemed forced at that time. He was a shipwright who played a major role in designing the Thousand Sunny, the second ship of the Straw Hat pirates.
Franky who is a cyborg doesn’t seem interested in Devil Fruits. In the Dressrosa arc, he was offered the Mera Mera no Mi, inherited from Ace. However, Franky refused the offer. The Mera Mera no Mi was then eaten by Luffy’s brother, Sabo.
2. Rayleigh
Silver Rayleigh is the vice-captain of the Roger Pirates and is a living legend. He once saved Luffy and his crew from Kizaru on Sabaody island. Rayleigh later trained Luffy after the Marineford war.
