Devil Fruit

Is Devil Fruit User?

After Xia Qiu knocked Leon away, she saw what Leon looked like: a huge lion-like man.

Unless he is a beastman, he must be Devil Fruit User.

The latter is more likely.

The lion-shaped person is probably the lion form of the Cat-Cat Fruit.

In One Piece, the Cat-Cat Fruit only appeared once, when Lucci was in his leopard form.

Lions are stronger than leopards, but in terms of strength just now, this man is far inferior to Lucci.

However, it is quite powerful.

The force required to crack bones upon impact with one's own ramming horn is already considerable.

Xia Qiu thought for a moment, then swam away into the distance, before turning back and charging forward again.

boom.

Xia Qiu rammed the pirate ship again, and with a loud bang, the pirate ship was torn open again.

The ship could no longer maintain its buoyancy and began to sink.

The people on the boat were terrified. Some clung to the mast and the side of the boat, some ran towards the small boat, and some jumped off the other side of the boat and swam towards the distant island.

"Click".

Xia Qiu went around to the pirate who was trying to escape, bit him to death, and swallowed him whole.

At the same time, it blocked the seagoing vessel and the island, preventing them from escaping.

"No, we'll die if this continues. Prepare to attack."

The white-haired man shouted loudly, and the fighters gripped their long knives and spears, some holding harpoon guns, and pulled the triggers at Xia Qiu.

Puff puff puff.

Three spears were fired, but only two hit Xia Qiu, causing no damage whatsoever.

"It's no use!" a pirate shouted.

"Even the boss's transformation didn't work. We...we are no match for him at all," another pirate said, trembling.

After witnessing the pirate ship being smashed to pieces and Captain Leon being killed instantly, they were filled with fear of Xia Qiu.

"Damn it."

The white-haired man's face was grim. He knew he was no match for them either, but if everyone worked together, victory was not impossible.

At this moment, Xia Qiu charged toward the ship with tremendous force, and with a deafening roar, Xia Qiu crashed into the ship again.

The fourth impact accelerated the sinking of the pirate ship.

boom.

Xia Qiu turned around, swung his tail, and smashed a pirate ship that had just landed. The three pirates on board fell into the sea and swam aimlessly into the distance.

Xia Qiu immediately caught up, swallowed them whole, and then turned back to continue ramming the pirate ship.

"We're doomed, what should we do?"

"Help! I don't want to die!"

The pirates on the ship looked on in despair as they watched the Black Fish charge towards them. One of the pirates fell into the sea and was swallowed by the Black Fish.

"Don't be afraid, let's attack together!" the white-haired man shouted, then suddenly leaped and pounced on the Black Fish.

"Let's charge together with White." Several pirates followed the white-haired man and jumped into the sea.

"Let's run."

The pirates still on the ship saw this and said, "Let's take this opportunity to run."

One by one they jumped into the sea and swam away into the distance.

The white-haired man, White, lunged at Xia Qiu's head, wielding a curved knife, and stabbed down fiercely.

Xia Qiu quickly dove down and entered the water.

clang.

His knife pierced Xia Qiu's head, but it didn't even break through the scales, leaving only a white mark.

Clang, clang, clang.

White swung his scimitar at Xia Qiu's head, but it had no effect.

"Stomata?"

White saw the air hole on the back of Xia Qiu's head, gritted his teeth, and was about to pounce on it.

"His strength is not bad, but he's not Devil Fruit User."

Xia Qiu sensed a power coming from him. The power to attack him underwater was immense, indicating that he was not Devil Fruit User.

Kill him.

Xia Qiu pulled out his arm and attacked White.

"What's this?"

White saw a dark figure approaching and raised his scimitar.

puff.

The scimitar pierced the wrist, but the wrist still managed to strike White.

boom.

White was sent flying and landed on the side.

Xia Qiu immediately turned around and bit down, taking White into her mouth in one bite. Her teeth snapped shut, White was crushed and swallowed.

Xia Qiu then ignored the pirates who had followed White down and instead charged at the pirates who were trying to escape, swallowing them one by one.

Not one can be missing.

Xia Qiu attacked pirates who had fallen into the sea but were still able to move, and ate them. In the blink of an eye, he had devoured seven or eight people.

At the same time, Xia Qiu rammed the pirate ship, causing it to sink faster.

The pirate ship gradually descended into the water. There were still about ten pirates on board, with nowhere to escape, and they were about to dive.

But at that moment, Xia Qiu stopped.

His sonic signals detected something coming from the direction of the island; there were many of them, and based on the sonic frequency, they were sea snakes.

Why are they here at this time? Don't they live at the back?

It seems I can't eat all the pirates.

Xia Qiu gritted his teeth, watched the pirate sink into the water, and decided to leave.

But at that moment, he saw a lifeless, robust man slowly slide down the deck, falling at a speed slower than the pirate ship.

Tall and strong, he is likely the one on the deck who possesses the Cat-Cat Fruit, Lion Form.

Xia Qiu immediately rushed over and bit him, but instead of swallowing him, she swam away into the distance, swimming further and further away.

Once away from the sea snake, Xia Qiu released the man, letting him fall, and then wrapped her arms and legs around him, tightening her grip.

Click, click.

The opponent's bones were crushed and shattered, and the grappling hook pierced his body, ensuring his complete death.

He is Devil Fruit User.

Xia Qiu didn't dare to eat Devil Fruit User directly. After Big Mom ate the nun, she gained the nun's Devil Fruit power.

Therefore, those Devil Fruit User are very likely to gain Devil Fruit powers.

Therefore, if you eat the other person, you may gain power. If you gain power, you will not drown, but you will become physically weak.

However, Devil Fruit can be transferred, provided the host dies.

For example, after Ace died, the Flame-Flame Fruit appeared in other places.

The method of relocation was to move the fruit to nearby fruit orchards.

For example, the Smiley that Caesar created using gas ate the Axolotl Fruit (Axolotl Form) and transformed into an Axolotl.

Then the Smiley died, releasing poisonous gas. With its death, the Axolotl Fruit quickly appeared in an apple not far away.

Therefore, when the Devil Fruit user dies, the Devil Fruit will be transferred.

Secondly, there's the time factor; how long should the transfer take?

According to the Smiley's transfer method, the Devil Fruit transfer time is very fast. Almost as soon as the Smiley stops, the pattern on the apple appears, and then the transfer is completed.

Then, after losing its fruit, the Smiley lost control of its size and exploded, turning into the Death Realm.

This happens relatively quickly; the Smiley doesn't stop for very long.

In addition, Whitebeard's Devil Fruit was taken by Blackbeard.

Blackbeard was able to steal Devil Fruit because of his own Devil Fruit ability and his own physical structure.

Regardless, Blackbeard took the power after Whitebeard's death, so there should be an interval of about ten or twenty seconds, or even longer.

In other words, death does not immediately cause the loss of abilities; it takes some time before the abilities are lost.

Xia Qiu judged that this time should be less than one minute.

In addition, there's the issue of fruit. Devil Fruit can transfer to fruit, possibly randomly choosing any fruit, but more likely, they'll find a fruit of the same type.

For example, if the original Devil Fruit was in the form of an apple, then it still needs to be transferred to an apple.

For example, if the original Devil Fruit was in the form of a banana, then it still needs to be transferred to a banana.

Of course, this is just speculation, based on existing information, and the result may not be correct.

According to the information available, Xia Qiu can eat the Devil Fruit User has been dead for a period of time without having to worry about consuming the Devil Fruit.

But Xia Qiu didn't intend to take the risk.

Xia Qiu restrained him for five or six minutes, then felt that was enough.

So Xia Qiu swam towards their habitat, found Moo, and placed the man in front of Moo.

"Eat."

Xia Qiu patted Moo's head with her pectoral fin.

"Um?"

Moo glanced at the man, somewhat puzzled. Originally, his older brother forbade him from eating people; he was the one who ate them all.

Why are you making me eat it now?

It seems that the older brother considers him one of his own.

Enough said, I'm going to eat.

Moo excitedly went over, bit the man, chewed him up, and swallowed him.

What was the result?

Xia Qiu looked at Moo with anticipation in her eyes.

In the world of One Piece, animals can also eat Devil Fruit.

Although he speculated that Devil Fruit User could eat a few minutes after death, he still had to conduct an experiment.

I wouldn't dare use myself as an experiment, but Moo would.

Anyway, even if Moo really gets into trouble, I'm confident I can push him out of the sea and get him to a nearby island.

Why are you looking at me?

Moo looked at Xia Qiu with confusion, wondering why he was staring at him.

So he lay down and stared at Xia Qiu.

Smack

Five minutes later, Xia Qiu turned around and slapped Moo, then felt relieved, realizing that her guess was correct.

Xia Qiu was relieved; she could use this method to eat Devil Fruit User in the future.

"You hit me again."

Moo was hit squarely, looking indignant. "My older brother is really awful!"

It's time to get some fresh air.

Moo shook its head and slowly swam towards the surface of the sea.

He surfaced, exhaled the air from his lungs, and then took deep breaths to store fresh air in his lungs.

But at that moment, a wooden crate floated towards them.

What is this?

Moo smashed its head down, breaking the wooden crate. Several fruits rolled out of it, including apples, pears, bananas, oranges, and so on, and scattered on the sea surface, floating around.

"It smells wonderful."

Moo sniffed, opened its mouth, and sucked all the fruit into its mouth.

Among these fruits, one of the pears had strange patterns drawn on its surface.
