    I like the idea of him having a Gorilla Zoan more than a King Kong Zoan.

    Re: Commander In Chief Kong: What Is He Worth ?

    IMO a king kong zoan would be remarkable. For starters, it would be a mythological zoan of sorts. Kong is a fairly large man, even if he had a normal gorilla fruit his transformation would be huge to say the least, with a mythological zoan like that he would be as large as sengoku or a giant with his transformation. If he does have a gorilla fruit I would indeed prefer the king kong fruit. Not to mention it would allow for another actual gorilla fruit (perhaps an ape model).

    And then He's a crocodile Zoan type and ruins all our fun xD

    Although the idea of Gorilla Zoan Fruit is kinda awesome. I don't think it needs to have something mythological. After all we saw weird DFs that are powerful because the user made it so.

    I don't see the point in a King Kong Zoan. It's just a big ass gorilla, it doesn't have any special abilities like Marco's and Sengoku's fruits do. As a Gorilla Kong will be large enough and Oda shouldn't waste a mythical Zoan on a gigantic gorilla.

    A limit maybe no but the Admiral Kizaru stated that this type of DF is the Scarcest among the DF,Scarcer than Logia types I believe that's what he said,so far there are only two known.....so I think Samui's right.

    King Kong isn't a prehistorical animal. So no.

    Like The Red Dog told you. It was said in the manga that Mythical Zoans are even rarer than Logia. I doubt we're going to see more than two Mythical Zoans (we alreave have two - Marco and Sengoku) at best. So it's best to reserve them for more special creatures, instead of an oversized gorilla.

    Re: Commander In Chief Kong: What Is He Worth ?

    That does not even qualify as an argument, specially in the context of shonen manga in general and even more so in the context of the manga right now. Remember when people in the east blue talked about devil fruits? Most of them had heard of them as part of legends or not at all to say the very least. Today luffy's crew alone has 4 of them and any crew worth a damn in the manga has several of them in general. Within the context of the manga it is very likely we see people with some importance having rare and powerful fruits. Fruits in general are rare, let alone logias or mythological zoans but the strawhats right now are going to the sea where only those worth a damn who have sailed the oceans for a fairly long time can survive. Even if fruits are rare I would argue the new world is the place where most fruit users will tend to concentrate. More so, if we are talking about mythological creatures then there are nothing but thousands of sources from which oda could inspire, in this regard it would even go as far as be a waste to not take advantage of that from oda's part for the most part.

    Heck, lets take a look at how shonen manga in general go about this kinda thing. Remember zabuza who was surprised that the chakra concentrated in kakashi's chidori being visible to the naked eye? He was a fucking elite shinobi with the potential to make a difference in the war due to a simple mist technique and yet given what we have seen recently fucking EVERYONE can make chakra visible. Remember how it took master roshi 50 years to perfect the kamehameha? Well, fuck him because goku, kuririn and tien mastered it on the first try. Remember how destroying a block used to be impresive in dragon ball? Well, fuck them too because by the end of the manga even the most worthless of the gang could destroy a damn planet lol. How about in bleach when we were told only elite shinigami could use shikai or defeat menos grande? Well, that is true however I would argue that is similar to how the strawhats are walking into a den of DF users (although technically they did that when they entered paradise).

    You can't give the same credits to some Chit Chat from clueless(lol)people from Eastblue and an Admiral's statement....Kizaru Clearly know what he's talking about....
    Although I understand What you mean Akira Toriyama's DB always push the borders Arc after Arc(especially the Buu Saga)this is not always the case with Eiichiro Oda's OP

    you're so damn right about the mythological creatures......Yet everyone here stick with king kong it's not even a mythical creature but a movie star lol

    Re: Commander In Chief Kong: What Is He Worth ?

    What does it matter who says what? Does it really matter that much whether something of that nature was said by morgan or by an admiral or a normal person? A DF is something which under the right hands can bring about colosal amounts of destruction, it is by no means an overstatement to say a single attack from a proficient DF user can tear down a nation. WB is living proof of that, so is BB, luffy with his fruit can bring about hell and there are still a few people worth mentioning.... This is a world where snails can be used for extremely long distance communication and with newspapers, everyone knew who WB is and even in that scenario we still saw people unfamiliar with what a DF even was which is quite absurd. Kizaru merely said mythological zoans were rare, this means running into a fruit is not impossible, just improbable. Still, the new world is going to be a den of fruit users (if I recall BB went as far as to delay his ambition to get his particular yami yami no mi so as to deal specifically with ability users who he believed could put his ambition to a halt) and in all likelyhood the actual origin of DFs lies there.

    Well, to be fair a such a fruit being a mythological zoan rather than a movie star zoan makes a lot more sense. Otherwise we would end up with the hito hito no mi rambo model (turns into a ripped dude with 2 ak-47 which never run out of bullets). Even then, I would think there are plenty of mythological creatures which are just larger versions of the animals they are based on.

    Re: Commander In Chief Kong: What Is He Worth ?

    Devil Fruits ARE rare in their world. There're only like 100 existing fruits as far as I remember. OP-verse's population should be over 100 million people, considering that in Arabasta and FI alone live 15 million people. They also have a book that tells which fruit is which, so someone like Kizaru obviously knows what he's talking about, unlike some fodder marine Captain like Morgan who barely leaves his town base. Also, DF are even rarer in East Blue. The only DF users introduced in East Blue were Luffy and Buggy, and later Alvida and Smoker.

    Yeah, and since Enies Lobby Arc we know that this book is incomplete, Kalifa and Kaku got fruits that were not described in that book.

    The sbs does not say there are like one hundred of them, it says there are more than one hundred. Oda could easily add as many as he wants (even though there are about 50 known fruits).
