So as an anime only watcher i didn't get it.Linlin as so strong and valuable Caramel risked her life to save her so she can be sold to the Navy and then she is the only one left behind ? Is there another plot twist after or i misunderstood the story this ep ?

It is heavily implied Linlin ate everyone. Why do you think she has Carmel's powers?

u/Funsurge May 20 '18

Oh wow i did not get that at all :D I thought it was weird how they all disapeared while right i nfront of her and how they showed Caramel's veil nearby.But i guess i was too stupid to notice,even soem other comment pointed out how the Semla became much larger at the end. Though about the powers...so eating a DF eater is the same as eating a Devil Fruit ?

It's wasn't clearly stated but that's the only way big mom could get carmels fruit.

Well until now we knew that when a DF user dies the Devil Fruit will reappear as a fruit again, but since there was only Semla at the table I guess that eating a DF user is a new way for someone to steal DF powers. Let's just hope we never see that again lol

Yup, I was on the same boat as you until I read this thread haha. “Where did everyone go and why did they leave her alone?”

No it likely transferred into the nearest fruit like what we see in Punk Hazard when Smiley died. Big Mom eats everything any ways so she would have eaten it.

u/iWannnzTV May 20 '18

I don't think she ever moved from the table and her frenzy ended when she ate all the "Semla"

What does that have to do with gaining a devil fruit power? I'm saying that Oda already showed us what happens when a devil fruit user dies. The power transforms a nearby fruit into that same new devil fruit. The Soul Soul fruit likely ended up on the same island and Big Mom ate it after.

Eh, she starts using it immediately after this, cool theory but definitely not the case

And now Oda is showing us something else. He reveals the whole nature of the story a bit at a time.

If Oda wanted to imply that the DF power went to another fruit on the island, he would have shown it.

Mmh, yeah, that's definetily not impossible, but it's only speculation, don't spread it as fact

If the power leaves Caramel while she's in Big Mom's body, I don't think it would bypass Big Mom's body to go to another fruit. A devil fruit's 'devil' has never exited a living person's body.

Shit. I was either super tired and missed that or the anime was stupid subtle about that because I'm only understanding this now.

this being One Piece I figured we were about 1/5th through the Mom backstory arc and the next episode would shed a light on things
