Sanji's Reactive Evolution CRT

[Ryuga21]

I believe that Sanji should have Reactive Evolution added to his profile, or a more advanced form of Adaptation for the following reasons:

• When Sanji awakened his Ifrit Jambe, the technique wore him out absurdly, requiring the combined use of the awakened Germa exoskeleton and hardening Haki to endure and focus the flames on a singular point, which were his legs;
• The next time Sanji uses this technique, we see that he can use the "Hell Memories" version that covers his entire body in blue flames and generates a much larger amount of flames than previously used; we do not see the use of hardening haki.
• In the third use of Ifrit Jambe, we see that Sanji manages to maintain the technique, which previously his normal body could not support without the exoskeleton and hardening haki already in his base form (His eyebrows are inwards which indicates that his exoskeleton is deactivated).

That's it. Clearly Sanji managed to evolve his body, his resistance to heat, increase his control over the technique and overcome his previous limitations in a period of three distinct activations of his technique. For me this fitting perfectly into a Reactive Evolution.

This is fine to add. Sanji's page will be updated for Egghead in its entirety soon so this works in the meantime.

 

[Nierre]

Accelerated Development works better here than Reactive Evolution. Reactive Evolution is more like gaining new (or upgraded related) abilities or resistances in response to an enemy's attacks in any shape or form.

But yeah I agree with the premise of this CRT.

Don't think so..?

The officials say, he adds his developed Armament haki on to his exoskeleton to support even hotter flames

Says it here as well

覇気と超高熱のデュオ
魔神風脚

血統因子操作の影響で発現した外骨格の強度を活かし、鍛えた筋力やスピードと武装色の覇気を重ね合わせた大技。〝悪魔風脚〟以上の超高熱の青白い炎が特徴で、現時点のサンジの足技の集大成だ。

Duo of Haki and ultra-high heat
Ifrit Jambe

This is a great technique that combines the strength of the exoskeleton developed through the manipulation of bloodline factors with the strength and speed of the muscles he has trained and the Haki of the color of his armament. It is characterized by a super-hot bluish-white flame that is even hotter than the “Diable Jambe,” and is the culmination of Sanji's current leg techniques.

Meaning it's just a Haki feat. Without haki, he can withstand heats of diable jambe but with ifrit jambe's heat, he needs to use haki

The next time Sanji uses this technique, we see that he can use the "Hell Memories" version that covers his entire body in blue flames and generates a much larger amount of flames than previously used; we do not see the use of hardening haki.

He's literally to far away for us to see, but even still, he could've used non hardening armament Haki? Luffy literally says yee whenever Bonney asks if they were hurting him because of them having used haki. That's confirmation that both Bonney and Sanji used Haki

In the third use of Ifrit Jambe, we see that Sanji manages to maintain the technique, which previously his normal body could not support without the exoskeleton and hardening haki already in his base form (His eyebrows are inwards which indicates that his exoskeleton is deactivated).

exoskeleton only added more strength and weight, with heat... It was only haki that enabled him to support it... As stated:

I agree with Monkey and disagree with the CRT.

"on to his exoskeleton"

Meaning it's just a Haki feat. Without haki, he can withstand heats of diable jambe but with ifrit jambe's heat, he needs to use haki

I don't think that's "a haki feat", it's a limitation. Sanji's body was not able to withstand the Ifrit without haki and without the exoskeleton activated.

He's literally to far away for us to see, but even still, he could've used non hardening armament Haki? Luffy literally says yee whenever Bonney asks if they were hurting him because of them having used haki. That's confirmation that both Bonney and Sanji used Haki

Even in the official translation, Sanji emphasizes that he could only concentrate this heat on his leg, but Hell Memories spreads fire throughout the user whole body before releasing it in an explosion upon the target; this would already be a type of evolution.

We don't see Sanji's body turning black, he appears to be normal. Regarding Luffy's speech, we know for sure that Bonney used Buso, using his speech to state that everyone used Buso would make Franky a haki user, and he is not. Sanji further emphasizes that Bonney stopped putting pressure on Luffy's body and applying force after the hit, which may indicate that her intention was just to punch him hard enough (Which makes sense, since she's a kid and she didn't fully understand what Luffy was doing), since Sanji and Franky were probably just focusing on applying force, which does not need haki.

exoskeleton only added more strength and weight, with heat... It was only haki that enabled him to support it... As stated:

Well, from the moment the exoskeleton becomes a non-factor for Sanji to use a technique that was previously impossible without it, he is already evolving.

"on to his exoskeleton"

yee what... Adding haki to it

I don't think that's "a haki feat", it's a limitation. Sanji's body was not able to withstand the Ifrit without haki and without the exoskeleton activated.

Duo of Haki and ultra-high heat
Ifrit Jambe

Literally says the heat has nothing to do with the exoskeleton, he just adds haki on the exoskeleton to withstand the heat

Even in the official translation, Sanji emphasizes that he could only concentrate this heat on his leg

Where...?

but Hell Memories spreads fire throughout the user whole body before releasing it in an explosion upon the target; this would already be a type of evolution.

Uhh not really...?

We don't see Sanji's body turning black, he appears to be normal. Regarding Luffy's speech, we know for sure that Bonney used Buso, using his speech to state that everyone used Buso would make Franky a haki user, and he is not.

He doesn't need to turn black , see Law negating gender swap ability... Franky is confirmed not to have haki, both Sanji and Bonney are confirmed to have haki, luffy confirms their (Plural) haki was making it so he was getting hurt.

Ifrit jambe is literally stated to be the utilization of haki

Duo of Haki and ultra-high heat
Ifrit Jambe

Well, from the moment the exoskeleton becomes a non-factor for Sanji to use a technique that was previously impossible without it, he is already evolving.

Don't know what you mean

I agree with the hell's memories point but I dont understand why your so sure the statement isn't referring to sanji using his exoskeleton and haki to withstand the blue flames, nothing of what you brought up implies the haki exclusively grants him the heat res necessary to tank ifrit jambe.
You're relying too heavily on the title of a databook segment going over the technique as proof of haki being the only factor in producing ifrit jambe, however the title is not supposed to be a comprehensive breakdown of the technique, it can simply be true that the title doesn't account for everything that allows the technique to happen or that those two things are the most significant factors in the process perhaps implying the exoskeleton plays a lesser role in sanji enduring the flames.

Sanji's statement in itself seems to be highlighting two things the exoskeleton grants him, toughness and strength. When sanji mentions the exoskeleton increasing his toughness it is the context of enduring his flames, he mentions adding the armament haki to the exoskeleton to acheive higher heat res, not just stronger kicks otherwise his monologue would be redundant. Meaning the second half of his analysis is explicitly stating that his exoskeleton is a factor in his heat res, otherwise he wouldn't mention it again when going over his newfound resilience.
