Description in Shop
Buddha (formerly known as "Human: Buddha") is a Legendary Beast-type Blox Fruit that costs 
1,200,000 or 
1,650 from the Blox Fruit Dealer.
The Buddha fruit allows the user to transform into a towering Buddha, granting them size, strength, hugely increased defense, along with huge and destructive attacks out of golden rays of light, high AoE damage. While transformed, the user can utilize swords, fighting styles, and guns, significantly increasing the user's [M1] attacks' range, making the user very powerful.
Buddha is an expensive and highly sought-after Blox Fruit thanks to the aforementioned range increases, heavy damage, and wide AoE, making it especially effective for raids, grinding, close-quarters PvE, and crowd control. In PvP, it's often considered abusable, as users can easily rack up kills by repeatedly clicking. However, the transformation also makes the user larger and slower, leaving them vulnerable to long-range attacks.
Buddha is widely considered the best choice for grinding in all seas, as it allows the user to not only hit multiple enemies at once, but also take very minimal damage themselves in the process due to their reach and high defense. Buddha is also very good for Sea events, and many events which require quick NPC farms, which is why it is in very high demand.
Awakening[]
Buddha requires 
14,500 to fully awaken.
Awakening at least one move of this fruit will grant the "Colossal God" #042 title.
Awakening Order[]
| Move |  |  |  |  |  |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | 500 | 2,000 | 3,000 | 4,000 | 5,000 |
Abilities[]
| Passive | Description |
|---|---|
| V2 only, when pressing the "Space" key (jumping while transformed), the user will create a small AoE shock wave that does relatively small damage to enemies, breaks Instinct and has a cooldown of two seconds, it will also jump at least 2x as high. (Stacks with Angel jump height boost) | |
| While transformed, the player gains a 35% (or 45% if V2) damage reduction against all attacks, and can hit enemies with their melee and sword click 5× (8× if V2) farther than a normal player. In V2, the player's hitbox is above water and thus has the water-walking passive ability. If dragged underwater, the user still take damage. Although, the user's offense is not amplified while in Buddha form. |

Notes[]
- Rabbit does add speed, but the difference is less when transformed. This is because Rabbit's buffs for Buddha got nerfed.
- Accessories provide speed boosts normally.
- Pilot Helmet and Rabbit Race V2 will allow the user to move at a moderate speed, and the Agility (V3 ability) can help if the player is not in Third Sea.
- Buddha's unawakened total damage reduction when stacked with full body Aura of 54%, while the awakened form has 61%.
- Using Shark V3 while wearing the Leviathan Shield will make the user's defense (against Melee/Sword/Gun attacks) up to 90%, or 79.14% by using Cyborg V3.
- Sound's Tempo Meter can also add additional defense and extra speed.
- It is recommended to use the Ghoul race and the Ghoul Mask with Buddha. Each time the user uses a melee attack on a player, it will heal the user by 35% of the damage done to said player (e.g. damage dealt: 2000 = 700 health regain). Hitting an NPC will heal the user by 7.5% of the damage done to the NPC (EG: DMG dealt: 2000 = 150 health regain).
- Unawakened Buddha moves can be used while in awakened form, however, awakened moves cannot be used in unawakened form.
- The [Z] move is the only move necessary for the defense and range buff, so instead of getting full mastery, it is recommended to just get the first move.
- Players at the middle of the [C] move's explosion (direct hit) will take around double more damage than the players around the explosion.
- Although the awakened moves on Buddha have large AoE, damage, and stuns, most people only awaken the [Z] move and rarely the [F] move for the damage reduction and slight mobility.
- Buddha’s Seismic Jump can help with farming if the player has their stats on Blox Fruit. This can also help with obtaining Wooden Planks which can only be obtained after getting the Shipwright subclass.
- Buddha is a great choice to grind with, but Elemental fruits are far better choices in First Sea due to them being easier to obtain.

Trivia[]
- A glitch can be done where if the user starts any Raid and use awakened Buddha’s [V] Twilight of the Gods, the final column after the user teleports to the raid island will appear there, and will not disappear before the final explosion reaches Hot and Cold (Raid room).
- Buddha used to grant the user twice their health during transformation, which was then removed in order to balance it.
- Buddha was the actual first fruit (the "second-first" fruit being Phoenix) to grant the user health benefits.
- The Japanese Kanji/Traditional Chinese characters around the aura of the awakened version of [Z] Shift mean: 草 (grass), 体 (body), 心 (heart), 魂 (soul), 火 (fire), 水 (water), 風 (wind), and 岩 (stone).
- Similarly, the symbols in the outer circle are derived from Elder Futhark runes, and they represent ᛓ (wealth), ᚨ (god), ᚷ (gift), ᛖ (horse), ᛟ (heritage), ᛈ (pear-tree), ᛝ (the god Ingwaz), ᛗ (man), ᛢ (yew-tree), ᛉ (elk), ᛃ (good year), ᚹ (joy), ᛋ (sun), ᛞ (day), ᚱ (journey), and ᛒ (birch). It's the language of the symbols of the Colosseum Quest.
- In real life, the Buddha is a religious figure who founded the religion of Buddhism, a widely practiced religion in Asia.
- Buddha and Control are the only fruits that buff weapons. Additionally, this is the only fruit that buffs Fighting Styles.
- Due to the animation of [Z] moves (awakened) being under the ground, the user can use this move to collect fruits that are put under tables
- Buddha's [X] and [V] moves (unawakened) have the same sound effect as one of the Sea Beast's Water Beam moves (while charging).
- Buddha's [Z] move (unawakened) has the same sound effect as the Shocker's Electrical Floor but modified (pitched down).
- The player can perform a speed glitch by first holding any fruit in Buddha form, then initiating shift lock and finally holding the D or S keys whilst clicking 'jump'.
- However, the anti-cheat can put the player back in place if they go too fast while using this glitch.
- Buddha's [C] move (unawakened) won't stop falling until it hits a surface of any kind (including walls).
- It is possible for the user to be immune to water whilst in the awakened transformed state by simply using the Z move while on the sea.
- If the user is in Buddha's [Z] move (unawakened) form while using Race Awakening as Rabbit or Shark race, the user's hair will turn golden instead of white.
- When using Buddha and turning aura on, the user's head will not be affected by the aura. If the user de-transforms with aura active, their head will still not be affected.
- Buddha is sometimes regarded as 'unskilled' in PvP due to how easy it is to use with high damage output and how players only need to click the screen to get this massive amount of damage meaning that players don't really need to do anything to get the massive damage.
- In the shop, Buddha is labeled as a fruit that "can M1" despite the fruit itself not having an M1. It could be taken that it can M1 because sword/fighting styles can be used while transformed.
- When using fighting styles to deal damage through M1 while transformed, the player is not able to damage enemies behind the area the player is facing, unlike swords where the player can hit all nearby enemies when using M1 regardless of direction.
- There is a speed glitch where while transforming, if the player holds any fruit then press Shift Lock, then side jump, then the player will travel very fast.
- By looking at the player's Buddha aura from the top, the player can see their fighting style's M1 max range.
