Sanji's Newly Acquired Power Ifrit Jambe Explained!

Surtr, a figure in Norse mythology, is either a fire demon or a primordial giant known as a Jötunn. He was the first fire giant to rule over the fiery realm of Muspelheim, where he served as its guardian, standing at its border with a flaming sword.


During the event known as Ragnarok, which marks the end of the world in Norse mythology, Surtr is fated to lead the fire giants in a battle against the gods. He is regarded as one of the two "supreme evils" in old Scandinavian myths, the other being Loki. Surtr's name means "Black" or "The Swarthy One" in Old Norse. The Jötnar, plural for Jötunn, are often seen as "the opposite of the gods" in Norse myths.



Some highlighted connections here:

  • Fire demon
  • Loki connection (Both Sanji and Loki are princes)
  • Surtr’s name means “black” and Sanji have a black epithet.
  • The Opposite of the Gods (Sanji is/will be a D?)


During their time at Thriller Bark, Zoro had warned Usopp that Sanji's anger might cause him to transform into something. In his battle against Queen, Sanji claimed that his flames were fueled by his passion, and thus, he could still increase their intensity even further, as his passion was unmatched. Sanji also mentioned that his newly upgraded exoskeleton and Armament training had allowed his legs to withstand the heat of his flames. This meant that he could fight for a prolonged period, although his legs might not be able to endure the impact and heat.

In Islamic mythology, the Ifrit, also spelled as efreet, afrit, and afreet, is a powerful type of demon associated with the underworld. They are often linked to the spirits of the dead and have been compared to malevolent geniī loci found in European culture.

As a personal theory, I believe that Sanji's Diable Jambe would be represented by orange/red flames, while Ifrit would have blue flames. The third stage, Surtr, would be depicted with black flames. This could be symbolic of Oda's use of the number "3" in Sanji's character, including the three stages and three flame colors.

Luffy's Adventure Begins

Luffy starts his adventure in Fushia, inspired by the pirate Red-Haired Shanks. After eating the Gum-Gum Fruit, he gains rubbery powers but loses the ability to swim. Undeterred, he gathers a crew and sets out into the treacherous Grand Line, a sea filled with dangers and mysterious islands.

Challenges and Locations

The crew faces challenges from the World Government, Warlords of the Sea, and powerful pirate captains ruling the New World. They explore thrilling locations like Thriller Bark, Enies Lobby, Skypiea, and Dressrosa.

Encounters and Allies

Along the way, Luffy meets a diverse cast of characters. He recruits:

  • Roronoa Zoro: A skilled swordsman aiming to become the best.
  • Nami: A talented navigator with a tragic past and a dream of mapping the world.
  • Usopp: A sharpshooter and storyteller.
  • Sanji: An expert cook and gentleman.
  • Tony Tony Chopper: A reindeer with a human form.

Throughout their adventure, the crew forms alliances with other pirate crews, creating the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, a formidable force united for freedom. These alliances are crucial in their battles against the Yonko, powerful figures like Big Mom and Kaido.
