Hitting level 700 in Blox Fruits is a massive milestone. You finally leave the Old World behind, talk to the Experienced Captain, and load into the Second Sea.
But then, reality hits.
You walk out of the safe zone, pick a fight with a Swan Pirate, and immediately realize your damage is practically nonexistent. The enemies in the Second Sea have significantly more health, hit way harder, and use Haki. If you are a Sword Main, relying on a basic Katana or a low-mastery Dual Katana just isn’t going to cut it anymore.
You need an upgrade, and you need it fast. Here at RblxGrind, we see players make the same mistake every single day: wasting time trying to farm endgame swords when they aren’t ready. Let’s break down the absolute best sword to use the second you hit level 700, and the exact upgrade path you should follow to dominate the early Second Sea.
The Undisputed King of Level 700: Saber V2
I am going to save you a lot of time. The best sword to use at exactly level 700 is not actually found in the Second Sea. It is the Saber V2.
If you grinded the First Sea properly, you should already have the base Saber (obtained by completing the Shanks Puzzle in the Jungle). However, the base Saber is too slow for Second Sea grinding. You need to upgrade it to V2.
Why Saber V2 is the Meta at Level 700:
- Insane Base Damage: Up until you get mythical swords later in the game, Saber V2 boasts some of the highest raw click-damage (M1) in the entire game.
- 100% Critical Hit: The Deadly Rush (Z move) guarantees a critical hit. When paired with high sword stats, this move absolutely melts bosses.
- No Second Sea RNG: You don’t have to pray to RNG drops to get it.
How to get Saber V2: You don’t need materials or money. You just need to reach 1 Million Bounty/Honor and then kill another player who is close to your level. You will get a system message saying “Something weird has occurred to your <Saber>.” Boom. You now hold the best transitional weapon in the game.
The First Upgrades: Best Early Second Sea Swords
Once you settle into the Second Sea and start leveling up past the 700-800 mark, you will want to start hunting for weapons with better Area of Effect (AoE) abilities for grinding. Here are the top three swords you should target first.
1. Midnight Blade (The Easiest Quick Upgrade)
If you don’t have Saber V2 and desperately need a Second Sea weapon, the Midnight Blade is your easiest target. It is a Legendary sword, but it requires zero boss-drop luck.
- How to get it: Head to the Cursed Ship (requires level 1000, but you can technically glitch in earlier or just grind to 1000 fast). You simply buy it from El Admin for 100 Ectoplasm.
- Why it’s good: Ectoplasm is incredibly easy to farm by just killing the basic NPCs on the ship. The sword has great stun potential and decent mobility, making it a solid, reliable choice for PvP defense and NPC farming.
2. Rengoku (The High-Damage Boss Drop)
If you want to feel like a demon slayer, Rengoku is the ultimate mid-game goal.
- How to get it: You have to head to the Ice Castle and defeat the Awakened Ice Admiral. He has a very small chance to drop the Hidden Key. Take that key to the secret room under the stairs in the castle, open the chest, and the Rengoku is yours.
- Why it’s good: The Burning Slash (Z move) deals massive burn damage over time. It is highly valued for both grinding and early-game bounty hunting because of its high combo potential and fast cooldowns.
3. Dragon Trident (The AoE Grinding King)
If you want to speed-run your levels, the Dragon Trident is currently heavily favored in the meta for its ridiculous Area of Effect (AoE) size.
- How to get it: Dropped by the Tidekeeper boss on the Forgotten Island.
- Why it’s good: The Sea Dragon Core move creates a massive water explosion that sucks in enemies and breaks their instinct (Ken Haki). If you are rounding up 4-5 NPCs at a time to farm quests, this weapon will wipe them out instantly.
The Secret Sauce: The Buddha Fruit Synergy
We can’t talk about sword grinding in the Second Sea without mentioning the elephant in the room. If you are a Sword Main, you need to eat the Buddha fruit.
Once you awaken the first move of the Buddha fruit (Shift), you turn into a giant. This transformation increases your melee and sword hitbox by a massive amount and gives you a ridiculous damage reduction buff (up to 50%).
The Ultimate Level 700 Strategy:
- Equip the Saber V2.
- Transform with Awakened Buddha.
- Put zero stat points into Blox Fruits; dump everything into Melee (for stamina/energy), Defense (for health), and Sword (for damage).
- Just spam your left click (M1). You will hit enemies from so far away that they literally cannot touch you.
Final Thoughts for Second Sea Beginners
Do not stress about getting the True Triple Katana (TTK) or the Dark Blade the second you hit level 700. Those are long-term goals. Your immediate focus should be upgrading your Saber to V2, getting your hands on a Buddha fruit, and pushing your level high enough to survive the Ice Castle so you can eventually farm Rengoku.
