would the fruit open up to being able to learn the Hakis? if given to someone other than us, I mean, since we are already learning some of it from our danger noodle.
Good question. I'm inclined to say no if only because it would complicate things even further for me. Eventually, I would be open to having Alex himself teach Haki to other people (perhaps only those that he granted creature to) once he mastered it himself but that's a long way off.
Would it be possible to use Grant or Equip Traits to use the power of the fruit temporarily? If so that would be quite potent, and if not it is still incredibly helpful, especially given it can be used on items as well as living things.
An interesting proposition. Let me think, about how to handle it.
A Devil Fruit only got two properties.
First, it does not rot, never. But that's not really a useful trait.
And second, it grants a devil fruit power to the one that eats it. So in theory you could give that trait to a creature (or to Alex himself) and then if someone else eats part of that creature (drawing blood would be the cleanest way to do it) it would gain the fruit power for as long as the trait is being granted.
It's a convoluted way to check the fruit's power but it makes for an excellent use of the Menagerie's granted powers. Thank uou for the suggestion, I really like it.
Now is Alex smart enough to think of that possibility? Perhaps particularly considering his (my) recent blunder with Equip trait and Grant trait.
Now I am curious what would happen if Dragon ate it.
That's even more intriguing. The fruit would need to be fed to a dragon suit while she's "inside" it, perhaps even to the brain/computer thing housing her consciousness. Afterward, she could transform any suits that she's piloting.
Considering that currently Alex does not know that Dragon is an AI I don't think it could come up in the quest. Still, if the fruit win and then in the subsequent vote Dragon is chosen as the recipient I'll find a way to arrange it.
