My theory today is about Admiral Ryokyugū (Green Bull)and his devil fruit.
Many people had already talked about it, it has something to do with plants or time or he is a bull etc… But nobody seems to have a clear idea what his fruit specifically could be.
I made some research and found some possible devil fruits.
First, Who is Ryokugyū?
He’s a laid back man who wasn’t scared by the orders of his supervisor Fleet Admiral Sakazuki.
He”s is selfconfident and a man of culture.
His apearance is similar to his personality freely, casual, stubborn.
His ephit and his personality could play a role for the choose of his devil fruit as well as with the other Admirals.
Catchwords:
-Bull, Cow
-Green
-Freedom
Now let’s start with list.
1 – Bull
The first devil fruit on the list is the Ushi Ushi no Mi,Model: Khalkotauroi.
The Khalkotauroi are mythical creatures from the greek mythology.
The Colchis Bulls, or Khalkotauroi, were two huge bulls forged by Hephaestus and granted to King Aetes of Colchis. Both bulls had bronze hooves and a bronze mouth, wich could breath fire out. They were extremely strong, and were only tamed by the hero Jason in his quest for th Golden Fleece.
The bulls have a resistance against any bludgeoning, piercing or slashing damage. They also are immune to any fire attack or damage.
2 – Sentai Sentai no Mi
The second devil fruit on the list is theSentai Sentai no Mi (Acid Acid fruit)
The Sentai Sentai no Mi allows the user to create, control and become a Dark Green Corrosive Sustance that can melt nearly anything, Busoshoku Haki can’t be melt by this fruit, but will still damage the enemy, even if the enemy is using Haki.
3 – Cherubim
The best comes last, the human fruits.
The third one is the Cherubim.
A cherub is one of the unearthly beings who directly attend to God according to Abrahamic religions. The numerous depictions of cherubim assign to them many different roles; their original duty having been the protection of the Garden of Eden.
In the Book of Ezekiel and (at least some) Christian icons, the cherub is depicted as having two pairs of wings, and four faces: that of a lion (representative of all wild animals ), an ox(domestic animals ), a human (humanity), and an eagle(birds).Their legs were straight, the soles of their feet like the hooves of a bull, gleaming like polished brass.
-Abilities
1. Ability to go forward through time.
2. Ability to trap anything into iterative time stream.
3. Ability to rewind time and all the proceedings. This in turn gives a few more capabilities.
Physical Restoration: Restore damaged objects and life forms.
Resurrection: Bring back someone from death.
Temporal Healing: Heal any life form.
Temporal Reload: Save the current moment and reset time to that point.
Temporal Restart: Bend time to restart it from another point in the past.
4. Ability to move through time.
Remote Time Travel: Make someone else move through time without physically travelling with him.
5. Ability to predict the outcomes and choices one would make.
6. Ability to control the age of all the living and non-living things.
Age Transferal: Transfer age from one person to another.
Time Theft: Steal time from others.
Disintegration: Destroy objects into pieces.
Semi-Immortality: Prevent someone from aging.
Decelerated Aging: Make someone age slower than the normal rate.
7. Ability to let others see their future course of events if they made a particular choice.
8. Ability to see past, present and future events.
9.Ability to move objects across different time streams.
10.Ability to manipulate time phases.
11.Ability to compress time.
We know already someone with similar abilities: Lady Toki
It was mentioned that she is dead but it was not a 100% confirmation, it was more likely a speculation.
But if she’s really dead than it’s possible that Ryokugyū has her devil fruit now.
If Ryokugyū’s powers have something to do with time it would explain why he can survive three years without food.
4 – Leshy
It’s time for the last devil fruit on the list it’s the Hito Hito no Mi Model: Leshy
Belive it or not, I really found a mythical being that is connected to the forest and with horns(bull), the Leshy is a deity from slavic mythology.
The Leshy (also Leshi; Russian: леший,literally, “[he] from the forest”, Polish: boruta, leszy) is a tutelary deity of the forests in Slavic mythology. The plural form in Russian is лешие, leshiye (retaining the stress on the first syllable). As the spirit rules over the forest and hunting, he may be related to the Slavic god Porewit.
The Leshy is masculine and humanoid in shape, is able to assume any likeness and can change in size and height.He is sometimes portrayed with horns (like a bull)and surrounded by packs of wolves and bears(Kuma?).In some accounts, Leshy is described as having a wife (Leshachikha, Leszachka, Lesovikha) and children (leshonki, leszonky). He is known by some to have a propensity to lead travelers astray and abduct children, (which he shares with Chort, the “Black One”) which would lead some to believe he is an evil entity. He is however also known to have a more neutral disposition towards humans, dependent on the attitudes and behaviours of an individual person, or local population, towards the forest.Some would therefore describe him as more of a temperamental being like a fairy.
Leshy is a laid back deity and a temperamental one. And he has the power of the forest.
Green-Power
Bull-Personality
And with the ability to photosynthesis, it would also make sense, why he survived three years without food.
Fujitora thanked Ryokugyū for the food, perhaps a hint about his devil fruit?
