Chapter spoilerImu looks waaaay different than I think anyone expected, almost they're from a different manga, but it seems like what we're seeing isn't his true form. Also does "Power: The Devil's Fruit" imply that he's the source of the devil fruit???

He reminds me a lot of Enel. Enel could see everything through mantra, and IMU has eyes every where. Enel has that ring piercing which looks a lot like the awakening smoke. They're both from some ancient race. IMU looks to be in a similar pose as Enel. Looks like they go to the same tailor. They both have long weapons. Staff vs glaive. The two arcs have similarities as well. Elbaf is even talked about in a similar way to skypeia. Upper and lower garden vs sun world and underworld.

So I think IMU fits inside one-piece pretty well

To me the tattoos/body markings are the most non-One Piece part of the design but that also makes them stand out in a way that implies they're important.

chapterI think that Imu's devil horns look very similar to what we've seen on ancient giants/oni. It might be that he's a different race (the theory that the celestial dragons were settlers from outer space who tried colonizing the one piece world which was still being ruled by tyrants).

Power: The Devil's Fruit" imply that he's the source of the devil fruit?

Yeah, it feels almost confirmed that Imu was the creator of devil fruits or at the very least tied to them in a very important way. It could also just be a "human human fruit, model: devil" so we'll just have to wait and see.

spoilerI definitely think this isn't Imu's true form because they have a transformation sequence after teleporting, the question is how much is the devil power vs their actual form. The horns feel distinct enough that we'd be able to see them in the silhouette with the crown.
