Crocodile is a former Sichibukai as well as the main enemy that Luffy must face in the Alabasta arc. He has the ability of a Logia-type devil fruit, namely the Suna Suna no Mi. He is one of Luffy's strongest opponents.
Crocodile is able to maximize the power of his devil fruit in battle. Because of that, he was able to defeat Luffy several times. In the following, we have compiled a list of the strongest techniques that Crocodile has. Let's just talk together!
10. Ground Secco
This technique is a Crocodile technique which is quite dangerous. When Crocodile touched his hand on the ground, he was able to use his dehydration ability and make the entire area dry to the point of turning to sand. As a result of this attack, the battle area can be destroyed and collapsed.
9. Ground Death
The technique this time was a stronger version of Ground Secco. Not only drying up the surrounding area, Ground Death also dries up any object and humans on the ground dry up to become sand.
In addition, this technique has a very fast absorption ability so this attack is quite difficult to dodge. Anyone within the range of this attack must quickly move away so that he doesn't dry up and melt into sand.
8. Sables
Sables is a Crocodile technique that allows him to create a sandstorm that can rage and destroy anything in its path. If this sandstorm grows big enough, nothing can stop this storm.
In addition, this attack can absorb the element of water from living things and is able to crack an iron. Crocodile can also use this technique to fly many people at once so this technique is very dangerous.
7. Sables: Pesado
This one technique might be considered a stronger version of Sables. When using this technique, Crocodile will collect sand with a density that is very heavy and dense. The sand swirled first in Crocodile's hands before being directed at the target.
When released, this attack will create a very terrible sandstorm and make objects around it collide with each other. This technique was used by Crocodile in the final battle against Luffy at the Temple Tomb of the Alabasta.
6. Desert Spada
Crocodile's next strongest attack is Desert Spada which can cut anything in its path. When using this technique, Crocodile will create a sand sword with his right hand.
Once he swung the sword at the ground, the attack would go forward horizontally with great force. The attack is very similar to a tornado which is very fast and quite difficult to dodge.
5. Barján
In Spanish, Barján can be interpreted as a crescent-shaped sand dune. When using this technique, Crocodile will swing his right arm forward and leave a trail of sand in the shape of a crescent moon.
When touching objects or humans, this attack will absorb the water element in them to make their bodies dry. For this reason, this technique is extremely dangerous and should be avoided as much as possible.
4. Desert Grande Spada
This technique is a more powerful version of the Desert Spada and was first used by Crocodile when he attacked Akainu and split him in two. This technique originally had no name and was only given a name in the game One Piece: Grand Battle.
Unlike the Desert Spada which attacks anything in its path, this attack shoots out from the ground and only hits a specific target. This attack is very powerful, but it is less effective against the overpowered Akainu.
3. Desert Girasole
Crocodile's next strongest technique is Desert Girasole which had made Luffy dying in the desert. The way this technique works is very similar to Desert Spada. However, the effects are much different.
When Crocodile uses this technique, he will make the ground in front of him collapse and create a giant quicksand. Anyone caught in the quicksand would be buried alive so this technique was extremely lethal and difficult to avoid.
2. Desert Encierro
In the second place, there is Desert Encierro which is much more deadly than the previous attack. This technique allows Crocodile to absorb the element of water on his opponent by holding the opponent with his right hand.
The opponent who is hit by this technique will definitely dry up until he turns into a mummy. This technique is able to make Luffy K.O in just one attack. Therefore, this technique is Crocodile's mainstay attack.
1. Desert la Spada
Crocodile's strongest technique is Desert la Spada which is very powerful and deadly. When using this technique, Crocodile creates several sand swords that are solid in shape and have sharp edges like swords.
This technique allows him to cut through anything in his path. Crocodile used this technique as the final attack in his ultimate fight against Luffy. Although this technique is inherently very strong, it is successfully broken by Luffy's fists and stronger willpower.
