One Piece: Nobody knows Devil Fruits better than me.

Chapter 300 Nidhogg, Ratatosk
Loki, the user of the Devil Fruit, has been identified.

[The Devil Fruit has been confirmed as 'Zoan Type, Mythical Zoan, Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Nidhogg Form', and is currently being analyzed and stored in 'Devil Fruit Encyclopedia'.]

[Effects at Each Level]

[LV3: Can transform into the legendary mythical beast 'Black Dragon' Nidhogg, which exists at the bottom of the World Tree, gaining powerful physical attributes and all-attribute bonuses, and can spew deadly venom.]

[LV4: Deep fruit development allows the user to devour the souls, life force, and bloodline factor energy of all things and store them within their body.]

【LV5: Fruit Awakening - Ragnarok】

[With the awakening of the fruit, one can transform the surrounding environment into a 'land of the dead' under their control, forcibly pulling all surrounding creatures into it.]

[When in the Land of the Dead, everyone can directly attack each other's souls, but the user of this Devil Fruit can use their stored 'soul,' 'life force,' and 'bloodline factor energy' to strengthen themselves, freely alter the environment of the Land of the Dead, and create an army of the dead. The army of the dead will not die, possesses their abilities from their previous lives, is absolutely obedient, and can be strengthened by bestowing bloodline factor energy upon them.]

Yes.

This was the 'information' that appeared on the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia the moment Wu Ma saw Loki.

This information also made Roy absolutely certain that his previous guess was not wrong at all.

The Devil Fruit that Elbaf guards, which is hailed as a 'national treasure,' is indeed very special.

Nidhogg, the black dragon, is a legendary evil dragon that lives at the bottom of the World Tree.

It is said to devour the souls of the dead and gnaw at the roots of the World Tree, ultimately bringing about Ragnarok.

When Ragnarok arrives, it will emerge from the underworld, carrying the souls of the dead to wage war against the gods, ultimately leading to the destruction of the world.

And without a doubt, the power of this fruit truly matches the legend.

It truly possesses the authority to devour all things and steal the power of the world—it is the first and only fruit that Roy has come into contact with that can acquire and manipulate 'bloodline factor source energy'.

Besides that.
[The Devil Fruit user 'Teire' has been identified]

[The Devil Fruit has been confirmed as 'Zoan-type Mythical Zoan-type Mouse-Mouse Fruit Ratatosk Form', and is currently being analyzed and stored in 'Devil Fruit Encyclopedia'.]

[Effects at Each Level]

[LV3: Can transform into Ratatoskr, the legendary messenger 'squirrel' of the World Tree, gaining powerful physical attributes and all-attribute bonuses, significantly strengthening claws and teeth, and able to silently transmit one's thoughts and voice to a designated target within 1000 meters.]

[LV4: Fruit deep development, the voice conveyed can contain emotions and evoke emotional fluctuations in the recipient, such as 'courage', 'timidity', 'surprise', etc.]

[LV5: Fruit Awakening - Messenger of All Things]

[With the awakening of his Devil Fruit, Ratatoskr can materialize all non-physical things, including 'power,' 'speed,' 'energy,' 'matter,' and 'natural forces,' and send them as 'letters' into other things. For example, the user can use a portion of his own 'Haki' as a letter to transport it into a creature or thing, creating a special item.]

"Perfect."

At this moment, even Wu Ma couldn't help but think to himself that it was perfect.

"These two fruits—so that's how Haildin's 'Crown of Wisdom' came about."

Upon seeing the abilities of these two fruits, Wu Ma naturally understood everything.

Just as mentioned before.

The 'Dragon-Dragon Fruit - Nidhogg Form' fruit itself has obvious flaws.

That is, this fruit has considerable limitations in terms of the effectiveness of using bloodline factor source energy.

It can only be used after the fruit awakens, and its bloodline factor energy is only effective on itself and the 'army of the dead' created by the ability.

But now, the fruit consumed by 'Iron' has changed that limitation. Ratatoskr—like Nidhogg, it is a legendary messenger squirrel that exists on the World Tree.

He travels back and forth between the top and bottom of the World Tree, delivering messages for the Black Dragon and the Giant Eagle. Legend has it that this squirrel is also the embodiment of nature.

The effect of this fruit is similar; it can transmit any of one's own power as a 'letter' to other things and shape them.

And it is quite obvious that this includes 'bloodline factor source energy'.

In other words, the bloodline factor energy that Loki absorbed and collected through the Nidhogg Fruit could be transmitted through the Iron Lightning to create special creations like the Sunstone or the Crown of Wisdom.

"No wonder 'Iron Ray' has been the guardian of Nidhogg's fruit in Elbaf since ancient times—it is not only a 'guardian,' but also an essential part of that fruit to exert its maximum effect!"

Roy already understood this fact.

Only those who have consumed the Nidhogg Fruit and wield the 'Iron Thunder' can truly and perfectly utilize the source energy of their bloodline factors.

Besides, Roy can now almost guess what the huge 'plan' that Davy Jones and Joey are playing against is.

"The three fruits they need to complete their plan are the 'Dark-Dark Fruit,' the 'Nika Fruit,' and the 'Nidhogg Fruit.'"

"And among these, we also need the 'Iron Thunder,' a weapon passed down through generations of giants."

"This is clearly an attempt to replicate Im's 'divine right'."

Roy now understands this very well.

The reason why Im is called a god is because of His use of the source energy of bloodline factors.

With the combination of the "wishes of all beings" and the "source energy of bloodline factors," it is almost omnipotent to create Devil Fruits, change the environment, raise sea levels, and achieve immortality.

Of course, so far only Im and Roy have the authority to exercise this kind of 'divine power'.

but now
"Although these three fruits each have their own flaws, if they are combined, it seems that they can indeed achieve this kind of application."

Loy can already see some things.

The Nidhogg Fruit, when combined with the 'Iron Lightning', allows one to manipulate 'bloodline factor energy'.

The Dark-Dark Fruit allows the user to absorb the abilities of other Devil Fruits through darkness and nullify them—if Roy's guess is correct, its essence should be the plundering of the 'wishes' that constitute a Devil Fruit.

However, it is clear that since the original Devil Fruits in this world are inherently 'bound' and cannot be consumed in multiples, this is still not enough.

Therefore, it is also necessary to combine it with the 'free body' that is freed from restraint by the Nika Fruit.

"The Dark-Dark Fruit grants 'wishes,' the Nika Fruit brings 'freedom,' and the Nidhogg Fruit provides 'bloodline factor energy'—a perfect combination!"

Thinking of this, Roy couldn't help but sigh.

The fact that Davy Jones and Joy Boy could find a solution of this caliber within this constrained world is truly astonishing.

Of course, none of this matters to Wu Ma at this moment.

Because the most crucial thing, besides 'Loki' and 'Iron Ray', is actually...

The third tip appears in the fruit encyclopedia.
