In the left image, you can see that Luffy and Brook have their powers drained.
However in the right image, both Hancock and Luffy are in standing water but
seem to keep their powers.

So, does the amount of power they lose depend on the water level?

Does water level determine the amount of power lost?


I think the water level is not important, just because when some water is
touching them they start losing their power. I think the most important think
is the time they are being in contact with it.

Based on what I read and what I remember:

  * Rain normally doesn't have an effect.
  * If the Devil Fruit user's body is mostly out of water, then they get weakened a bit.
  * If the user is totally/mostly in the water, they normally can't move.
  * Seastone has an effect like that of being totally in water.

The difference of the above pictures: on the left, Luffy and Brook are mostly
in water, so they are very weak; on the right, Boa Hancock and Luffy are only
standing in knee-deep water, so they don't lose too much power.
