I’m talking about the sentence about the Forest God Taming Demons. If the Demons are the ancient giants (as they literally look like oni) the Elbaf fruit being a forest god fruit makes sense.
There’s also the reveal of Shirahoshi being Mosa, who’s also connected with forests seeing how she dreams of seeing them on the surface.
I know you are, and you could be right but im saying personally I dont think that thats one is about Ancient Giants, rather how Devil Fruits were created. Ancient Giants are never referenced as Demons or Devils. outside of Onigashima, which seems far older than Oars.
I have thought, long before Harley was a thing, that Sunlight Tree Eve is/was the DF Progenitor, and IMO thats what this is talking about, given there is a big centralized tree in the mural, written on Treasure Tree Adam, Eve's counterpart. Not each of the Gods have to be human/human-like.
Imo:
- Nika was "human"
- Earth God and Sea Gods (assuming we see their representations on the mural) seem to be monsters or demons. Given the claw marks in the castle Loki's fruit probably is some sort of monster. Imu, if they are the Sea, might just be a literal demon.
- Forest God just might be a literal tree lol.
