Chapter 200 Mythical Beast

"This is a devil fruit!"

Snake Princess observed with interest the three devil fruits that the old man placed on the island cloud ground.

The three Hancock sisters squatted down, you touched this, she touched that.

"Sister, what kind of devil fruit is this?"

The two younger sisters asked their eldest sister curiously.

Hancock asked, "How should I know?"

She glanced at Giorno. This guy can take away other people's devil fruits, right?

Even if you don't like it after eating it, you can let him take away the power of the fruit directly.

So, you can eat it with confidence!

Lin Qi looked at the old man in the pointed hat, Haredas. Haredas stroked his beard and said thoughtfully, "I remember that they were three animal-type mythical beasts..."

"Mythical beast species?"

Lynch was very surprised. It seemed that the things collected by these old men who didn't care about the value of the devil fruit must be really valuable.

The three Hancock sisters were very ignorant. Among them, Hancock only knew the three major categories of nature, superhuman, and animal. She had never heard of the fantasy beast category.

This was also the first time Robin heard of it.

Dragon said solemnly: "The mythical beasts of the animal-type devil fruit... are often strange creatures that only exist in myths and stories. For example, dragons, phoenixes, nine-tailed foxes, and even giant Buddhas..."

"Big Buddha?" Snake Queen seemed to be thinking about something, thinking of some rumors that she had never seen with her own eyes.

Hancock wondered, "Big Buddha, I seem to have seen it somewhere..."

She and her two sisters looked at the big bear who was quietly following the crowd, and looked at the cover of the book he always held in his hand - a saint with auspicious light behind his head.

"..." Daxiong opened the Bible in his hand, turned to the chapter about Buddha, and showed the illustrations, "This is the Great Buddha."

Lin Qi knew that in the world of One Piece, the beliefs of many different sects in previous lives were actually very mixed. In the Bible of Big Bear, there was both "God" and "Buddha". Just like beside Enelu, there was both the Ark Motto with a golden Buddha head and a nun in Christian clothing.

"Isn't this a human?" The three sisters of the Boa family were all surprised. "Why is it an animal? What kind of mythical beast?"

Robin reminded: "Humans are also a kind of animal..."

Lin Qi said: "Among the animal-type fruits, there is the Human-Human Fruit. The devil fruit of the Buddha is probably a branch of the Human-Human Fruit, right?"

"ah?!!"

The three Hancock sisters were shocked and looked at each other in disbelief. Are humans also animals?

They seemed to see monkey-like red hair growing wildly on each other's smooth and white skin, full of ominous feelings...

Robin groaned, "But why do imaginary creatures also exist in devil fruits?"

She suddenly thought of something and looked at Lynch.

Robin understood from his eyes that he was thinking of Dr. Vegapunk's research materials just like himself.

According to the doctor's research, different devil fruits are essentially different segments of factors, and these special factors, shaped by unknown technology, are closely related to the most fundamental genetic material of humans - the "bloodline factor."

Based on the doctor's research on human bloodline factors, he interpreted many "redundant" pieces of information from them.

Lightning, flame, light, fragments of these natural traces; fragments of birds, beasts, and other animals... The human bloodline factor is full of vast amounts of content.

Different devil fruit factors combined with bloodline factors, influenced and merged with each other, thus forming natural devil fruit users, animal devil fruit users, and even superhuman devil fruit users...

Since the Devil Fruit Factor is likely to be artificially created, then are those mythical beasts formed by the creator who made appropriate adjustments to the factors based on the images of mythical beasts and evil beasts in fantasy stories? For example, the possible mythical beast Shenlong Fruit...

According to myths and legends, it has a snake body, a pig head, deer horns, cow ears, sheep whiskers, eagle claws, fish scales... Then you just need to adjust it according to this "formula" when making it, and finally add the "superpower" of being able to fly in the clouds, and you have an "animal system" that only exists in fantasy, and you're done! If you are interested in exploring other fantasy beasts, I'm sure there are traces of "formulas" to follow...

Or, rather...

"It is precisely because of the existence of the mythical beasts that it is proven that the devil fruits were definitely created by humans!!"

Robin and Lynch were thinking similar words at the same time.

………………

“Found it, found it!”

A few old scientists came running over holding a big book.

"This is the Devil Fruit Picture Book."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Haredas opened a thick book in front of everyone.

"Let me see, these three fruits should be..."

I searched through the index and first found the animal section, then narrowed the scope to the mythical beasts.

“Found it!”

By comparing the pictures, you can immediately know the exact names of the three devil fruits taken out of the warehouse.

Hancock, Sandasonia, Marigold, Robin, Lynch, and "BIB" put their heads together and looked down at the three devil fruit pictures. The appearance of the devil fruits was indeed very similar to the three real objects on the island cloud.

Comparing it with the fruits in front of Hancock and the others, it was as follows: Animal Series·Snake Snake Fruit·Mythical Beast·Euryale——Flying Snake! "Flying?" The second sister Sandasonia's eyes lit up.

Animal Series·Snake Snake Fruit·Mythical Beast·Stheno——Snake of Power! "Power?" The youngest sister, Marigold, smiled happily.

as well as……

Hancock snorted and raised his head and said, "I am satisfied."

Special Animal Series·Snake Snake Fruit·Mythical Beast·Medusa——Snake of Domination! This is simply a devil fruit tailor-made for me! After reading it, Lin Qi couldn't help but sighed: "Mythical Beast, Mythical Beast, this is... really fantastic!"

However, it seems that no matter how magical it is, it can never be as magical as the giant Buddha fruit from the Warring States Period.

Snake Princess smiled and said, "If you want to eat it, then eat it. The Snake Fruit is a perfect match for our Nine Snake warriors."

"Um!"

The two sisters of the Boa family nodded heavily and reached out to grab the devil fruit they liked.

Hancock directly grabbed the fruit of Medusa, the ruling serpent.

"Ah...you really want to chew that kind of thing?"

Lynch felt very uncomfortable just by looking at it.

He took out the dozing green Den Den Mushi from his pocket and suggested to the three sisters, "Why not let this little guy eat it? I'll take out one for each one it eats and then send it directly into your bodies. Isn't that better?"

"Bolulu?" Xiaolu opened his eyes, a little confused.

“…” Robin looked at Lynch.
