The Golden Griffin of One Piece

The biggest taboo in One Piece fanfiction is forcing the plot to follow it blindly! Many fanfics have failed because of this. It's fine to use familiarity with the plot for personal gain, but far too many authors lack the ability to turn that advantage into profit. Instead, they seem oblivious to the protagonist's needless insistence on following the storyline.

I've always disliked the current state of fanfiction, with its transmigration, overpowered abilities, and invincible protagonists. It's rare to find good original stories, and the original ones often have bizarre plot points and entry points that are mostly problematic, ruining what should have been a good world and distorting the characters beyond recognition. It's truly disgusting.

I've never understood why you want revenge. If you want to take it, join the Navy! Doflamingo doesn't know you, and there's no obstacle. Why join his family? Joining the Navy and then taking revenge is called upholding justice; joining Doflamingo's family and then taking revenge is called betrayal. And do you think Doflamingo can't find out your identity?

Author, please stop with Mythical Zoan types. Just Ancient Zoan or regular Zoan types would be fine. Other birds' Devil Fruits turn their arms into wings when they fly, so they can only use their feet. Your Griffin has a separate wing, which frees up its limbs, which is already great. Ancient Zoan is fine, please don't use Mythical Zoan types, thank you.

I feel like the eyes on an eagle could be related to eagle eyes, with incredibly strong Observation Haki. The claws on its forelimbs have been developed into eagle claws, similar to Sabo's, with incredibly strong Armament Haki. The lion's evolved Conqueror's Haki.

Between chapters 44 and 45, the author introduced the Griffin Fruit, stating it has no special abilities, only the characteristics of a lion and an eagle, such as flight and attack power. I wonder, if the Griffin Fruit doesn't have these two abilities, does it even deserve the name "Griffin"? The author even designated it a Mythical Zoan type – a huge joke!

The protagonist's power ceiling is at most the level of the Yonko's third lieutenant or one of the three calamities. In the original work, no Zoan-type Devil Fruit user has ever reached the top. Characters above the Admiral level are either Paramecia or Logia-type, and even Mythical Zoan types are rare.

I suggest the author revise the Devil Fruit ability or start a new book. For example, change it to the Human-Human Fruit in its angelic form, which would be both powerful and a Mythical Zoan type, making it more interesting. Look at other fanfiction; they all aim to create the strongest character. Who would read a weak Devil Fruit? In the end, it all relies on the protagonist's plot armor. That's why I've concluded this book's poor performance.

A good book with few flaws. Although the progress seems slow, the characters' abilities are steadily improving. I like it!

I find it ridiculous that someone would infiltrate their enemy's forces to seek revenge. They could have joined the naval system to learn, but instead they chose to infiltrate the enemy, where they might not even learn anything and have to constantly hide themselves. It's too exhausting.
