Nidhogg
- his left hand seems more like a dragon's/reptile's than wolf's/mammal's, when he grabbed Harald

- didn't think about his neck, but it seems like another reason to pick Nidhogg over Fenrir/Skoll

It's shaped far closer to Killingham's neck, than to Jabra's, like Veku posted above

Am I the only one that thinks its neither?

Partly because all of these creatures were already mentioned before by the Elbaf kids who Killingham turned into nightmares

And Loda likes his retarded cheap shock value writing and subverting expectations, so he wouldn't go the predictable route with any of these

Maybe I'm just reading into this too much...

It wont be called either if its any of the gods or serpent. Itll have a name like Nika probably.

Anyway, since its not being mentioned its probably like Nidhoggr because the Hammer is Ratatoskr. Being that the Hammer is actually attached to the DF and Nidhoggr is the only true mythological creature Ratatoskr is tied to, its probably that.

Granted, I kind of hope its just a bunch if mythological creatures, and like the Loki he's based on (who shapeshifts) he can just transform into anything norse related, and thats why Oda teased Draugr, Fenrir, Nidhoggr, etc already.

Kind of like how Nika can basically do anything he wants, I have expect this fruit to be similar but we'll see

I'm leaning towards Nidhoggr, or some other type of dragon. Because the dragons ARE coming and they WILL be amazing! Plus, it'd be appropriate to have a "Western Fire" Dragon Zoan to contrast against Kaido's "Eastern Water" Dragon. I'm convinced that there's something going on with the Dragons in the backstory of One Piece. And these two "tribes" of Dragons are probably important to the backstory, somehow. Note that Kaido has white, curved horns. And Loki has black, straight horns. Kind of hinting at two distinct bloodlines for different Dragon-descended clans, which probably fought one another in the distant past.

But, if I'm being honest, that silhouette could be just about anything.

I could see it being a wolf. Like Fenrir or Skol or Hati. This is a hybrid form, so the proportions would be off no matter what.

It could even be related to Sleipnir, Odin's 8 legged horse, since the face looks pretty horse-like.

It also does kind of look like the "Elk Skeleton Helmets" that Road and that unnamed God's Knight wear. Maybe there's some connection to that? Even though, I'm not sure what it'd be.

Before, I was thinking that Loki's Fruit would turn out to be the Earth God Fruit. And it still could be. All the God Fruits are probably also Zoans, by default. Going by the Chapter 1138 Mural, the same "arrow" pattern can be found on the "Hellflame Serpent" on the right, and the "Ancient Giant with a Spear" on the left, and the small "moon" between the First and Second World text boxes. So, maybe it's the Hellflame Serpent Fruit, or maybe it's the Earth God Fruit, or maybe they're one and the same?



But, honestly? I can't help but feel like Oda's setting us up for a swerve here. He's showing us this big, imposing, mysterious creature who SEEMS really tough and cool. So...is Oda just setting us all up for a "punchline"? I can't help but feel like when we actually see Loki's Zoan form, it'll look like a joke. Something we never expected. Something kind of silly or weird. Only to make it cool again, with some kind of crazy powers. Because Oda does enjoy a good swerve. And I could see him setting up expectations here, only to subvert them, later.

Take another look at some of these panels.


Look at the panel next to the one where Ragnir is happy to see this form appear. The one where Loki seems to be running toward Harald. Doesn't Loki's "legs" look kind of...stubby to you? We see the columns in the foreground for scale. And Loki's new "body" seems disproportionately larger than his "legs". Loki's "belly" also looks pretty "curved" here. And his "spikes" seem a bit..."triangular". Like, maybe they're a little too triangular to be natural?

I'm not sure what that adds up to, even if I'm on the right track. My mind's going to like...a wooden toy rocking hobby-horse or something?


I don't know. I wouldn't be surprised if Loki's Devil Fruit turns out to be something more "goofy" than "cool", given just how much Oda's building up to it. Just so he can take us for a ride, and make us disappointed it's not cooler than it is, just to make it cool again by Loki using his powers in interesting ways.

Also, remember the Legos from the beginning of the arc. We still don't have a explanation for those. Elbaph doesn't seem to have the technology to produce plastic construction bricks. There don't seem to be factories or specialty toymakers anywhere. So...what if the Lego's came from Loki's Devil Fruit?

What if Loki basically has a toy-based Devil Fruit? If that WAS one of the God Fruits, it'd kind of fit the theme. The Sun God Fruit seems to be all about the power of Imagination. And Imu's powers, whatever they turn out to be, seems to be based on Games. So, "Toys" as a theme for one of the God Fruits would actually fit in pretty well. So far, all the God Fruits seem to be "things kids like". Literally "playing god".



So, I don't know. Loki's Fruit could be some really cool mythological creature. Or it could literally be a child's toy. This is One Piece, both options seem equally viable. Oda's silhouettes are notoriously difficult to read. And often misleading. I wouldn't be surprised either way. I don't know, just a random possibility to think about.

Based on all the creatures that Oda has shown, It's either all of them or none of them. All of them somehow exist in the past, Fenrir, Nidhogg, Jormungandr, Draugr, etc. I don't see why Oda makes one them the legendary DF and just omit the rest. Unless Nidhogg is God of Death where he can revives his dead animal friends and boost them to become those mythology creatures, and other skeletons under the snows to become Draugr. Also the Gareila needs to be revived somehow, so having power of revive makes sense. Maybe he can boost Hajrudin, dude needs serious buff if he wants to save Elbaph and become king of all giants.

First of all, it is a hybrid form so we have to count on the humanoid features.
The horns are probably originally Loki's from his Ancient Giant blood.
That doesnt necessarily exclude the Zoan having horns on its own as well.

The size of the hybrid is ridiculous which means the Zoan form is ridiculously huge.
I will go and say it is based on the Nidhoggr, whatever name Oda chooses to use for it.
Kaido's words >The world doesnt need 2 dragons, might be foreshadowing exactly what the world needs.

Momonosuke, the eastern dragon and Loki, the western dragon.
