Five Devil Fruits
Before dinner, Gage led Sig to a research lab...
As Sig approached the building, he realized what was there— Devil Fruit! And not just one!
The overlapping and intertwined ramblings were continuously absorbed by the "listener".
"[Damn it! What are you doing?!]" The Prison Demon's furious roar faintly echoed.
To prevent Sig dying on the spot due to being unable to withstand the multiple "Devil," the Prison Demon had no choice but to resist the "radiation."
Because it was too chaotic, Sig clenched the Seastone Handcuffs on his right wrist, removed the Armament Haki barrier on his wrist, and used the Seastone Factor to suppress the fruit radiation, temporarily blocking out these delirious ramblings.
Gage then led Sig into the research room where the Devil Fruit were kept. There, in some kind of separate, sealed, transparent container, were five Devil Fruits of different shapes and colors, each kept separately.
"Five Devil Fruit? No wonder it's the Germa Kingdom." Sig exclaimed—not only do they have Devil Fruit, but they don't even use them, which shows just how "rich" the Germa Kingdom is.
"Hahaha, I went to a lot of trouble to get these. How about it? Any special feelings?" Gage said, seemingly modest but actually showing off.
"I can...hear some sounds, but it's too chaotic," Sig said truthfully.
Gage noticed it too; Sig was gripping his Seastone Handcuffs, and he had some guesses in his mind.
"Really? I can lend it to you to try later." Gage said, seemingly very sincere.
"What kind of fruits are these?" Sig knew that the Vinsmoke Family definitely had a "fruit encyclopedia".
Even though the various versions of the Devil Fruit encyclopedia are not complete, Gage must have included the Devil Fruits he recognized since he was taking a research approach.
"The first three are Zoan Devil Fruit. Although they are not Mythical Zoan, they are still quite special Zoan... This is the 'Bug-Bug Fruit - Swallowtail Butterfly Mode,' this is the 'Frog-Frog Fruit - Fire-Breathing Frog Mode,' and this is the 'Snake-Snake Fruit - Electric Snake Mode'..."
Gage first introduced the three Devil Fruits from left to right: pink, red, and blue.
They're both Zoan, but... they are indeed quite special.
The long-winged swallowtail butterfly is a highly poisonous butterfly. The fire-breathing frog and the electric snake, as their names suggest, are both relatively rare species, but they are indeed real animals, not mythical beasts. On the Earth where Sig lived before his transmigration, there were also fire-breathing frogs and electric snakes!
Gage spoke without intention, but Sig, listening intently, guessed that these three must be the Devil Fruit ability that had been modified into the Lineage Factor of the eldest daughter, eldest son, and second son.
Sig remembered their abilities, which corresponded to poison, fire, and electricity...
Yes, and the hair color matches the fruit!
Since he hadn't shown anything yet, Gage was unaware that Sig had discovered the pattern and continued, "These two are Paramecia Fruits, this one is the Winch-Winch Fruit, and this one is... the Iron-Iron Fruit."
Gage showed some resistance when the Iron-Iron Fruit came up.
The green Winch-Winch Fruit likely corresponds to the fourth Yonji, Yonji, the little green-haired guy, who is very skilled at rotating his muscles and using his limbs to generate power in the original work.
As for the black Iron-Iron Fruit...
Judging from his hair color, it's clear that the effect didn't work on Sanji. Sanji hasn't shown any abnormalities so far, including his hair color, which is yellow, inherited from his parents.
However, Gage seemed dissatisfied that he hadn't been NTR'd by Devil Fruit.
Sig, however, took a few more glances at the Iron-Iron Fruit...
Although I haven't seen the specific plot, Sig heard before his time travel that Sanji was supposed to Awakening a special ability?
Sanji's abilities certainly don't seem like those of an ordinary human. At first, his Diable Jambe relied on rotation and friction to heat up, but later he simply started generating heat directly...
Moreover, while his hair color comes from his parents, Sanji's eyebrows are a result of his Devil Fruit!
Gage and Sora have normal eyebrows, but the eyebrows of their five children are all circular, similar to the patterns on Devil Fruit. Moreover... except for Sanji, the other four have counter-clockwise circles, while only Sanji has clockwise circles, just like the patterns on a real Devil Fruit.
Perhaps Sanji is the most successful one?
Iron-Iron Fruit...
Sig thought of two things. First, the Steel-Steel Devil Fruit ability in the movie did indeed possess the ability to generate heat, since "steel" isn't a natural element but an alloy of iron and carbon, which fits Sanji's Diable Jambe. Also, if it really was a Steel-Steel Devil Fruit ability, it could strengthen his leg bones...
Secondly, Sig discovered that Gage was quite "naive"—when Gage gave him the example of Life Return on Axe Island, he used Zoan Devil Fruit and Iron-Iron Fruit, and Sieg himself used Zoan Devil Fruit and Iron-Iron Fruit!
Furthermore, it can be seen that the Vinsmoke siblings, after being modified, exhibited different Devil Fruit ability than Sig's "The Hanged Man Path." Sig directly absorbed the power, and the Devil Fruit disappeared; they simply changed the way they absorbed the Devil Fruit ability, bypassing the "protection of the sea."
The five fruits are still here, and Sig can hear them constantly whispering, so they are clearly still effective.
In other words, it turns out that the Lineage Factor modification of the siblings was indeed closer to Sig's "White Tower Path" ability, and they had truly "learned" the Devil Fruit ability into themselves.
"How Paramecia-type Paramecia Fruits like the Op-Op Fruit work through Lineage Factor is still unknown in my research. In comparison, Zoan-type Zoan Gage those Devil Fruit ability alter body structure or composition are more likely to edit Lineage Factor." Op-Op Fruit generously offered to "lend" these Devil Fruits to Sig for trial use.
Although Sig couldn't always use his Observation Haki to stare at him, since the Battle Suit could detect Observation Haki, Sig could deduce from the subtle facial expressions that this guy's "covetousness" of him was becoming increasingly obvious, and he was completely treating him as a test subject!
So Sig suppressed his desire for the time being and shook his head, saying, "No, I still want to try the 'Op-Op Fruit' again."
Although Gage was disappointed and even dissatisfied, he was still able to tolerate it and did not immediately force Sig anything.
After all, he hoped that Sig would cooperate "voluntarily" so that his experiment could proceed more easily, and Sig's current excuse was actually quite legitimate.
Gage then invited Sig to dinner, along with Gage's five children...
Well, apart from the ten-year-old eldest daughter Reiju, who is a bit quiet, the other four seven-year-old sons are all Sanji. Only Sanji is not very noticeable because he is insecure and introverted.
They were shouting and yelling at the dinner table, fighting over food, and even throwing food... while Gage stood by like a doting parent, laughing and encouraging his sons.
Gage has always been very lenient and loving towards his talented children who could become fighters.
Seeing their wasteful behavior, Sanji wanted to say something, but he only moved his lips and didn't dare to speak.
