History
Devil Fruit (Japanese: 悪魔の実, Hepburn: Akuma no Mi)
Dr. Vegapunk theorized that Devil Fruits are a manifestation of the possibility for human evolution, all the different powers representing the many branches for humanity's future, brought into existence by human hope and desire: thoughts along the lines of "if only I could do this" or "if only I could be like that". Vegapunk claims that those with powers exist in different dimensions dreamed up by others before them. However, according to Vegapunk, those who exist in this unnatural state are loathed by the sea, which he describes as the mother of nature, and thus become unable to swim as punishment.
Overview
In appearance, Devil Fruits were special fruits that came in all different shapes and colors, though all the Devil Fruits seen so far have possessed swirl marks or patterns.
There were more than 100 different Devil Fruits in the world, but only one of each Devil Fruit existed.
All Devil Fruits were known to taste very bad and caused the consumer to permanently lose their ability to swim. A person can only eat a single Devil Fruit in their entire life; any attempt to gain a second Devil Fruit power will cause the consumer's body to be torn apart to such a degree that little trace is left of it, resulting in their death.
It was said that there were three different categories of Devil Fruit which were:
- Zoan : (動物系ゾオン Zoon, "animal type")
- Logia : (自然系ロギア Rogia, "nature type")
- Paramecia : (超人系パラミシア Paramishia, "superhuman type")
Artificial Devil Fruits were man-made fruits designed to give consumers special powers similar to those of natural Devil Fruits. One type of these fruit were the SMILE types that were mass produced using the special substance known as SAD.
Consumption of a Devil Fruit was noted to alter the Lineage Factor of a person which was the blueprint of life itself, present in all living organisms. After being consumed, a Devil Fruit gives the consumer a superpower or special trait, which they will soon become aware of; a person who has eaten a Devil Fruit and gained its powers is known as a Devil Fruit User (能力者 Nōryoku-sha?, lit. "Power User" or "Esper") and will keep these powers for the rest of their life.
Due to their power, Devil Fruits were highly sought after by the government and the Underworld, among many other parties. If sold, they could expect to fetch well over 100,000,000 Beli and Devil Fruit users themselves were sold at market prices the same way as slaves.
Encounters with Devil Fruits led to the creation of the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia (悪魔の実図鑑 Akuma no Mi Zukan?) that listed the names and powers of all the Devil Fruits. However, only a few have illustrations, meaning that most Devil Fruits cannot be identified by their appearance.
