Hi guys. I love one piece and I adore theories that each and everyone comes up with..
Theories are important.. But they are not the truth..
All of us are trying to put together the facts and creep a little closer to the truth..
Sooooooo..
This is my theories on the Devil Fruits.
I've tried searching if anyone came out with a similar theory but found none so far.
So to stroke my own ego, I'm gonna post it and claim it as my own.. WAHAHA!!
FACTS:
-1- DF power users become powerless when submerged in the sea/water or when in contact with seastone.
-2- There is an encyclopedia of known DF, complete with pictures and details of power.
-3- It was never ever said in the manga where people actually find the DF (which is to say there are no specific place to find it and there is a random luck factor)
-4- There are no duplicate DF at the same time.
THEORIES:
! 1. DF are created through a DFmaker which is powered by SOMETHING that is stealing the "mysterious power" found in the sea
Going by fact no 4, the source of the DF, the DFmaker, has an awareness of which DF power is no longer in existent & will produce another similar DF. Thus this DFmaker might be a being or a plant/machinery that has awareness/conscience/emotion and is omniscience (like HAKI) with the DF. (There might be a possibility that the DFmaker = SOMETHING)
This "mysterious power" should be the building block that the One Piece world is made up of. Everything that exist in this world is connected to this "mysterious power", like some kind of super lifestream..
The SOMETHING that is stealing the "mysterious power" extract a pure single element/form/living thing and transfer the power to a DF.
Maybe that is the origin of the curse that causes DF users to lose all power when submerged. Most likely it is the "mysterious power" absorbing back what was taken, or maybe because the DF user energy is completely void in presence of the source, the "mysterious power".
! 2. DF when created/produced "grows" in the sea and surfaces when "ripe".
When it comes out the DF are incomplete, have the same buoyancy as the sea, and they all shares a common starting shape. It then stays under the sea absorbing/stealing the "power" in the sea similar to the SOMETHING, similar because it was made to be in its image. It then drifts around and travels around the world by the undersea current. When it is fully formed it will floats up to the surface to be found by surface dwellers.
This theory explains why it is also found in sky island, it got shot up.
! though the theories created more question, I gonna throw a long shot.
! >! Long ago there was a powerful good Kingdom whose people possess the ability to use the technology called SOMETHING. It responses to the people will/idea.
There are many different type and version of SOMETHING, some are more powerful than other, but they were all extracting the "mysterious power" essence and using it to bring advancement & progress to their society.
They were proud, mighty and great because of this technology, and in order for other nations to share it they must have the same idea/will.
! Along came the even more powerful evil enemy who wanted the SOMETHING but cannot used it because they are very evil.
They figure that if they cannot get it then it should not exist. So the evil enemy then plan to wipe out all those who use SOMETHING and so gathered many nations to wage war with the good Kingdom.
! The good Kingdom & their allies were caught by surprise and were losing the war so they started to develop more powerful weapon that uses SOMETHING.
Among those created were the Pluto & Poseidon, believe by some to be able to turn the tide. But the good Kingdom was betrayed by one of their own, the Traitor, who stole the weapons & joined the evil enemy.
The good Kingdom have no choice but to merge a few SOMETHING to create the ULTIMATE SOMETHING that was able to imbue their warriors with super power.
But all was too little too late, so the good Kingdom use another SOMETHING to create all the indestructible Poneglyphs craved with secret of all the SOMETHING.
They planned to send them all over the world during their last stand.
In the chaos that ensured the good Kingdom was destroyed and at the same time the dying determination of the people causes the ULTIMATE SOMETHING to go out of control and sunk the whole island.
The rogue ULTIMATE SOMETHING started the DF creation thingy.
The evil enemy creates the World Government.
The Traitor with the evil enemy gain super noble status and their descendant are the Tenryuubito.
The D family was the royal family of the good Kingdom.
! So the moral of the story is.. One Piece = ULTIMATE SOMETHING.
Just a very long shot.
What do you all think?
