One Piece Devouring Fruit - Chapter 7
A bold hypothesis.
If those two Devil Fruit users were eaten, the devil within the fruits should have transferred to random fruits nearby and regenerated into Devil Fruits.
According to the transfer rules of Devil Fruits, they usually enter the nearest suitable fruit.
On Stomach Baron, the island always has fruits.
Could this result in the two Devil Fruits transferring to a single fruit that fell into the abyss together?
The entire island flipped, causing fruits to fall. Michion himself had been hit several times.
Stomach Baron’s abyss is filled with powerful digestive acids so that the Devil Fruits can be digested. Thus, the massive island effectively ate the two fruits.
A single-life eating two Devil Fruits would result in death.
But Stomach Baron didn’t die because it’s unique.
Just like how Kaido is rumored to expel Devil Fruits from his body instead of dying.
Stomach Baron’s main body is a giant plant, and the plants that grow food are both part of it and independent living entities.
In this situation, Stomach Baron digested the two Devil Fruits and expelled them onto that plant.
As the fruit grew, the two Devil Fruits, which should have grown separately, somehow combined into one fruit.
This hypothesis was Michion’s most reasonable judgment based on the current situation and his prior knowledge of Devil Fruits and Stomach Baron.
Deep in thought, Michion looked at the fruit in his hand, hesitant.
Originally, Michion intended to eat the Goro Goro no Mi from Sky Island, as Enel hadn’t consumed the powerful Logia fruit yet.
With Goro Goro no Mi and Michion’s creativity, he could develop abilities like electrical body enhancement, magnetic fields, railguns, and even plasma.
Years of watching anime hadn’t gone to waste, and his memories were apparent due to the transmigration, ensuring no issues in development.
Joining the Navy with this fruit would likely make him an admiral, and working with Vega Punk’s wisdom could push the fruit’s potential to unimaginable heights.
But what if this peculiar fruit was as he speculated?
The dual fruit abilities could be potent once developed.
With his extensive knowledge from various forms of entertainment, combining the two fruits’ abilities could exceed Logia’s potential.
Yet, since the fruit users fell into Stomach Baron’s abyss, becoming this unique fruit, would it affect the Devil Fruit’s abilities?
Moreover, this fruit didn’t directly transfer but grew from a plant on Stomach Baron, making it quite strange.
So, what should he choose?
To eat or not to eat?
Michion looked at the fruit, his expression uncertain.
After half a day of contemplation, Michion decided—to eat!
Thinking of Blackbeard, who endured decades in Whitebeard’s crew for his goal, even planning to remain a crew member if he didn’t obtain the Yami Yami no Mi, betting his future on a highly uncertain plan.
In Impel Down, Blackbeard gambled his and his crew’s lives on Rain Shiryu, a man he had just met.
Each step was a high-stakes gamble, with Blackbeard betting on his life, dreams, and future.
But Blackbeard won and became a Yonko.
Although Michion disagreed with Blackbeard’s path, he admired his audacity.
With countless such figures on the sea, Michion made up his mind!
Eat!
Even if it was an uncertain mutant fruit, it was another matter whether it had Devil Fruit abilities.
As they say, “Poor people rely on mutation, rich people on technology.”
His current understanding of the fruits and bold ideas made it worth the gamble!
Other novel protagonists had cheat abilities after transmigration, but Michion had to rely on himself for a breakthrough.
Even if the bold idea didn’t materialize, having the abilities of two fruits was better than Paramecia’s potential.
With a guaranteed fallback, his only fear was the fruit being an ordinary, strange-looking fruit.
If it was a Devil Fruit, Michion’s knowledge and creativity from his past life would allow him to develop powerful abilities, even if the bold idea didn’t come true or there were mishaps.
There are no most potent fruits, only the most substantial users!
The stark contrast between Sister Carmelite and Big Mom with the Soru Soru no Mi proved this point.
Sister Carmelite became a trafficker with the Soru Soru no Mi, while Big Mom became a Yonko.
Regardless of Carmelite’s potential schemes, the power gap was evident.
Shiryu of the Rain later allowed Blackbeard to steal Absalom’s abilities, showcasing his confidence in developing fruit powers.
Thinking no more, Michion held his breath and bit the dual-colored fruit.
Expecting it to taste terrible, Michion was ready to finish it despite the expected foul taste.
Unexpectedly, the fruit’s flesh had a jelly-like texture.
The juicy flesh burst with one bite, flooding his mouth with rich flavor.
Besides the intense sweetness and aroma, it felt refreshing.
“What the…! I hesitated for so long, and it’s actually delicious!”
Expecting an awful taste, Michion was surprised by the fruit’s delightful flavor, thinking he might have eaten an ordinary fruit resembling a Devil Fruit.
As he chewed, the taste blossomed, resembling various fruits, evoking familiar flavors.
The refreshing juice was as satisfying as drinking a cold soda on a hot day.
Enjoying the delicious fruit, Michion savored the last bite, feeling it was worth it even if it wasn’t a Devil Fruit.
But then, an unexpected sensation left Michion stunned.
This is…
