Basire had previously thought about what kind of bones were needed to support such a huge body as the giant elephant Zunesha.
Now that he saw this giant skeleton with Armament Haki remaining, Basire thought, could Zunesha's skeleton also be this kind of black skeleton filled with armament haki?
Perhaps only this kind of powerful skeleton can support the huge body and amazing weight of the elephant, and allow it to walk for thousands of years without stopping.
Basire is still a little doubtful whether Garp has also reached the level of armament haki bones, which is why he can maintain his peak period for such a long time.
This guy might have supreme black bones that can be as hard as a supreme sword.
"Theoretically, the armament haki wrapped around a black blade is the same as the one wrapped around the body. If the blade can turn into a black blade, then it is indeed possible for a person to permanently infuse their body with haki.
However, the limitations of the mortal body are too great, and it cannot be permanently blackened like a black sword, but the bones are the hardest part of the body, and it is indeed possible for them to be dyed into armed black bones."
Basire murmured in a low voice, "Damn it, why does this feel like cultivation?"
Refining skin, refining bones, refining internal organs.
It is estimated that most human beings have never thought that bones can be permanently turned into hard black bones, and few people dare to try this.
After all, it could cost you your life.
Before the advent of things like seastone inlaying ship bottoms, horseshoes, and drilling wood to make fire, no one discovered these simple principles.
No one knew that this could be done.
When Basire saw this giant armored skeleton today, he seemed to be inspired by something.
It's like when humans see flying birds and think of the invention of airplanes.
"Armament Haki turns out to be able to permanently turn bones into armed black bones!!"
Basire seems to have found a way to continue to become stronger. The world of cultivation has jade bones, but the world of One Piece has temporary black skin and permanent black bones?
Straw Hat Luffy's Armament Haki has a burgundy type, while the black type is the norm.
(The setting that Armament Haki is colorless is abandoned in this book. After all, there is no change. Who cares? The hair color of the Saiyan next door has almost used up the entire color spectrum.)
Basire considered the feasibility of turning the skeleton permanently black.
It should be difficult for humans to reach this level.
Super giant creatures like the Snake Lord and the Elephant Lord evolve such armed black skeletons because they are too large and require strong skeletal support.
It would be too difficult for humans to imitate them and evolve such powerful skeletons.
The reason why a sword can turn into a black sword is because it is made of metal, lifeless and has almost no change. However, all parts of the human body are constantly growing and changing. It is indeed difficult to achieve permanent blackening.
Moreover, human Armament Haki is not unlimited and will be used up.
The haki is only used in battle, and is usually stored in the body.
"It would be great if we could know how a creature like the Snake Lord uses energy to grow its bones into armor-colored bones."
Basire said softly, just like fish can grow gills, horsetail grass can absorb gold, and pigeons have organs that can locate magnetic fields, each creature has evolved to have its own special function.
Human beings cannot learn just when they want to.
Giant creatures such as Snake Lord and Elephant Lord can grow permanently armed black skeletons, but that doesn't mean humans can do the same.
"Basire-sama, in fact, our island has a snake-shaped mushroom that is specially eaten by snakes, which can make our snake partners very hard."
"But if we humans eat it, we will be poisoned so much that it will melt our bones, which is worse than snake venom."
"The snake-shaped mushroom is also the most poisonous among the poisons on our island, and the most forbidden item among the forbidden items."
"We Amazon warriors all like to turn our snake partners into bows or snake clubs, but Gloriosa's snake partner stays in the form of a snake cane most of the time."
"Because we have formed a relationship with our snake partners since we were young, they are like our relatives, following their owners for life and being buried together after death."
"The defense capabilities of the snake partners are amazing and they rarely get injured, but we still discovered that the bones of our snake partners are actually gray-black."
"According to historical records, many years ago a queen's powerful snake partner was seriously injured and it was discovered that its bones had turned black."
Hancock saw that Basire was so interested in the skeleton of the Snake Lord, and immediately told everything she knew.
"So the snakes on this island have gray-black bones? Snake-shaped mushrooms?"
Basire seems to have discovered some secret treasure, the great poison is a great tonic, but it only works for a specific race.
Perhaps top scientists can be asked to study snake-shaped mushrooms, which may involve the principle of blackening of the bones.
If Basire guessed correctly, these snake-shaped mushrooms, angry mushrooms, black power mushrooms, and all kinds of mushrooms that make people laugh and cry, all grew by absorbing some energy from the remains of the Snake Lord.
The magical spring is likely to be formed with a certain part or ability of it as well.
After all, the Kuja must have landed on the island by chance after the Snake Lord formed the island, and then settled down to make a living on it.
The mushrooms that grow on it, which can awaken Haki, and the special Hotpot, which enhances strength and physique, were also slowly explored and created by the ancestors of the Kuja clan.
It may be unknown how many forerunners were poisoned to death during this period. Maybe the ancestors of the first batch of men who landed on this island died slowly in this way.
"Basire-sama, please don't try the snake-shaped mushroom. It will really eat people to death. Except for snakes, any other animal's bones will melt and die if they eat it."
Hancock saw Basire becoming interested in this poisonous mushroom and immediately warned him.
"Don't worry, I have a beauty like you, how can I test poison with myself!"
Basire smiled and hugged the nervous Pirate Empress. Although he was very interested in this kind of thing, he would not risk his own life. After all, he is not the protagonist who would develop poison immunity after being poisoned.
"Have any of your ancestors ever tried to break off such bones and make them into weapons?"
Basire suddenly asked curiously, after all, this is an armed skeleton, which is no more powerful than most metals.
Bones are also a kind of metal and are very hard. Bone tools, bone swords, bone knives, and bone arrows have been around since ancient times.
Why did the Kuja clan leave such a huge treasure mountain unused?
"Basire-sama, this is our belief, our Lord Snake!!"
Hancock glanced at Basire faintly. The Snake Lord gave the Kuja everything, allowing them to multiply and pass on from generation to generation, get close to snakes and obtain snake partners, as well as various mushrooms and precious foods.
How could they destroy the Snake Lord's remains?
