SMILEs
SMILEs are mostly failed versions of artificial devil fruits created by Caesar Clown. Caesar used Vegapunk’s research and previous artificial devil fruit to create these SMILEs using SAD. Law even states that SMILEs are just a poor application of Vegapunk’s research into Lineage Factors.
As we all know these SMILEs were then grown and sold in bulk to Kaido and his crew by Doflamingo. They were then fed to Kaido’s crew and then failed versions were then sent to various towns of leftovers to punish them by Orochi. Now these poor citizens are forced to live with a constant smile on their faces and never being able to show their emotions ever again. And just like everything else, this effect is caused by Lineage Factors.
The Endgame
Before when I posted a theory about Sanji’s DNA holding the key to saving those affected by SMILEs, many people stated no one in Wano understands the inner workings of Lineage Factors. And if this theory pans out, there is one person. Queen the Plague.
Queen may be an enemy, and no I don’t think he’ll ever change sides; however, we have a master of leverage in Wano on the side of the Alliance. Trafalgar D. Water Law is more than just a doctor. He was able to force a previous evil doctor to undue damage that he caused. Queen has never seemed a courageous type, however, if Queen had to choose between death by having his heart stolen and smashed or using his knowledge of lineage factors and plagues to create a cure, he’ll choose the second. Now Queen is not a doctor, medicine and genetics are two very different sciences; however, we do have a master doctor that was trained in two places known for their medicinal sciences, Tony Tony Chopper.
So to create the cure, Queen will explain the lineage factors, Law will dissect Sanji and isolate the needed gene, and finally, Chopper will take his knowledge and Queen’s and create a cure for the SMILEs. Now, how will he distribute this?
Plagues are more than just sicknesses, they’re sicknesses that have astounding transmission rates. With Queen’s specialty in high transmission rate diseases, and Chopper’s cure, the Wano people will be saved from SMILEs.
