In Kaido’s crew there are many pirates endowed with the power of the devil fruits, some original and some artificial. And obviously such power could not be lacking in the captain, the legendary emperor, either. Since when is The Kaido dragon version appeared in ONE PIECEWe always wondered what his zoo is.

At the ONE PIECE 999 finale, Big Mom and Kaido started discussing the past, and the Empress did not fail to mention it Moment when Kaido received his devil fruit. It was the woman who gave it to him in God Valley and revealed that it was a fish-fish-type zoo. This latest news can turn your nose upside down or cause confusion: for example, why would Kaido who is a dragon have a fish fish model and not a dino dino?

The answer can be hidden in a ancient Chinese story with a kite, but also a carp, Fish that is very dear to the Japanese and can be found all over the archipelago. Koi carp try to climb up a river, but the current pushes them away. Someone tries to fight it and get to the waterfall, but in hundreds of years only one koi carp manages to reach the top. To reward their determination The gods turned this carp into a dragon.

The Kaido’s devil fruit could therefore be a carp koi fish which, strange as it may sound, also refers to the carp used to climb Wanokuni waterfall and the tattoo that occupies the emperor’s left arm, which picks up the very scales that cover the fish.

And PokΓ©mon fans can tell that this legend has something in common with Magikarp’s evolution into Gyarados.
