We have twice seen Mr.3 open seastone cage/cuffs with his wax powers, once in
Alabasta and once in the war of the summit. How can his wax key not melt once
inside the keyhole?

question
one-piece
How can Doru Doru work against seastone


As stated in [seastome wikia](http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/Seastone)

> Seastone only works upon direct and constant contact.

Which means it works only on devil fruit user not on the power or material
they produce using power.

Another example is Aokiji Kuzan's ice formation power, which he uses it to
make ice road on the sea to travel in his bicycle. Here the ice doesn't melt
just because it came in contact with the sea.

And this is just the guess but seastone might melt if comes in contact with
Akainu's lava where the temperature of lava is greater than melting point of
seastone.

answer


oda stated that devil fruit can't be affected after activating it, we can see
it clearly when MR3 in marineford made a key to rescue ace, after the key was
formed they could open, and also happened with aokiji when he did the ace age,
so that means the seastones won't affecte on the devil fruit abbility after it
activated
