After thinking about it for a long time, Chino couldn't figure out why this happened.

This does not seem to be the ability of the 'Devil Fruit Tree' itself, but a special ...... 'inducement'.

Since the book "OP" came out, countless Haimi have been thinking about one thing, that is-where do the devil fruits stay?

Countless arguments passed, and the big guy gradually settled an uncertain conclusion, that is, the Devil Fruit resides in the heart.

However, Blackbeard's suspicions came.

It is rumored that Blackbeard ate the three-headed dog fruit first, and the other two heads ate the 'Dark Fruit' and the 'Shock Fruit' respectively. If that's true, spicy...... Devil fruits don't live in the heart, but in the head. Could it be that the three-headed dog has three heads and three hearts?

Belch......

Chino is still skeptical of this argument.

However, his devil fruit tree is indeed ...... It is lodged in the 'sea of consciousness', which is commonly known as the brain.

However, in any case, 'Devil Fruits' have souls, that is, "self-awareness", which is evidenced by the fact that animals can eat dead things.

And through the bloodline factor, superhuman devil fruits can also be transferred to offspring through embryos. That's how Sanji's brothers came about.

Basically, it can be concluded that the Devil Fruit also has its own consciousness, but it is 'sleeping' in its normal state.

Just after he had deposed Vander Dyken IX, the Target Fruit's sense of self returned, and it struggled to leave.

However, it is not so easy, as long as the body is not dead, it cannot be stripped of itself, and it cannot be dominated by ordinary guests.

So, Chino combined the abilities of the Devil Fruit, as well as ......

Oh forgot to mention, Chino has already gotten the 'Dark Fruit'. As early as the battle at the top, Blackbeard's Dark Emperor ran into him, but he was not seriously injured. You know, the darkness itself is harmless.

It's just a pity that Chino couldn't touch Blackbeard's body, so he can't confirm whether Blackbeard ate the so-called "Hell Three-Headed Dog Fruit".

Devil Fruit Tree + Dark ability, finally succeeded in pulling out the target fruit that wanted to escape, and then transferred it to the sea pineapple to become a complete Devil Fruit.

Of course, the price was that Vander Dyken IX's meridians were broken, his brain was severely damaged, and he became a fool to spend the rest of his life like a puddle of mud.

This is also the reason why the transparent target fruit on the Devil Fruit Tree has disappeared.

"Reproduction" requires the ontology to live; After the death of the main body, the fruit returns to the Devil Fruit Tree; However, now Vander Dyken IX is still alive, and the target fruit is now in the outside world. This is equivalent to Chino transferring the physical fruit returned from the fruit tree to the outside world, and thus disappearing from the tree.

This was the first time Vander Dyken IX had this happening, but the copied abilities disappeared as the fruit appeared in reality.

After a day of pondering, Chino finally figured out why the target fruit had regained its sense of self and wanted to leave Vander Dyken IX.

It's simple!

Without him, because you have no hands and no feet!

The ability of the target fruit needs to be marked by the hand, and without the hand, the ability cannot be used, that is, it is a waste. Devil fruits are arrogant, they are not willing to live in a waste body, of course they want to escape.

The average weak person is fine, and he can still use his ability, but Vander Dyken IX has no hands and feet, so he can't use it.

Lying on such a master, it's strange that the target fruit doesn't run!

When the hands were broken, the target fruit had not yet run, and the four legs were broken before they had to run.

Why?

Is it possible to develop a foot instead of a hand?

This...... It also seems to be easy to understand.

In reality, some people with disabilities live with their feet instead of their hands, so it is very likely that if they are developed, they can also use their feet to display their target fruit abilities.

When Vander Dyken IX's hands and feet were broken, the target fruit also lost its future, and there was darkness in front of him, and there was no bright future for this master.

So it's going to run.

Of course, this is just Chino's inference. After the fruit was transferred, the revival of the rhythm of consciousness disappeared again.

It is said that because of the ability of the Devil Fruit Tree, Chino can communicate with plants, and should be able to communicate with the consciousness of Devil Fruits, but unfortunately...... He failed.

So, looking at the Devil Fruit in his hand, Chino was thinking again, who should this fruit be given to?

This fruit seems to be a chicken rib, it needs to hit the target before it can be used, and it can only deal with one person! If it is changed to humans, if it is developed to replace hands and feet, it will only mark four people.

You have to bump into each other first!

When you can't fight head-on, you can add a damage bonus, so you can only hide in the shadows and play some small tricks. In a head-to-head battle, it's just like the 'Yellow Spring Fruit', with no damage bonus at all.

It's too chicken!

Even if Chino knows how to develop deeply, if no matter how it is developed, it needs to be marked in advance, then the fruit is a waste.

"Forget it, let's keep it for now, it's a big deal to sell the auction and make a gimmick."

"What do you want?"

There are still a lot of books in the library of Dragon Palace City, and when Robin is free, he will also borrow books to read. Well, in fact, she is idle every day.

Of course, Chino will still train her to see and hear, and the sound of the water in Ryugu City is the most suitable.

Go fish!

"I'm thinking, my eldest brother is really a good method, and he deserves to be the heir of Dragon Palace City in the future. With just a few simple words, the panic of the people gradually subsided. Chino smiled.

Last night after the ceremony, Shark Star spread the 'soul' thing. Although there is still some panic, it is much better than the unknown torment.

"Are you sure? Isn't it a white star? She is ......" Robin asked, a little puzzled, as he closed the book and asked curiously.

"Ha, Shirahoshi is not suitable!"

"Well, indeed?"

"For one, she is too kind to be a worthy heir; Second, as 'Poseidon', she is not suitable to be the king of Fish-Man Island, and third, my father-in-law of the old fox will not let the power of Fish-Man Island fall into my hands, although I am now their protector. ”

"Giggles, yes. But......! Robin glanced behind Chino and smiled.

"Bluff - bluff ——, virtuous son-in-law, is it really good for you to say that about the old man?" Neptune's whisker and glaring eyes came from behind him.

"Ah, it turned out that my father-in-law got married, and I lost my welcome, I lost my welcome, so please sit down-"

Chino quickly stood up, smirking in his heart, he did it on purpose, just to disgust Neptune.

"No, I'm here to inform you of something today."

"What's the matter, father-in-law, please tell me!"
