Questions & Mysteries What if Xebec was the previous user of Yomi Yomi no mi

#1
First, let me put the timeline.

  • Was born 90 years ago. From the current timeline.
  • 52 years ago, they entered Grandline.
  • Brook expired in a known timeline after that.
About Yomi Yomi no mi
  • It allows the user to come back to life just once.
  • Once the user dies, the soul is returned to the living world.
  • Brook became an exception. By the time he got back to the real world, his body had decomposed, and only a skeleton was left.
  • Now, what I speculate is that the fruit is reincarnated again after the user dies, but Brook is never gonna die. Unless his entire Skeleton is destroyed or a soul ability like Big Mom interferes.
  • Brook created an exception for himself.
Post God Valley.
  • God Valley happened 38 years ago.
  • And current timeline is around 55~75 years ago.
  • My theory is Xebec ate the fruit after Brook expired.
  • This explains his dialogue of " I'll come back ".
  • Like Brook, his body was entirely destroyed by Marines, and he had nowhere to go.
  • He chose his 1-year-old Blackbeard body.
  • Because no way a child knew this much info and where to wait.
  • Xebec went back to Whitebeard, his own First mate. Stayed underground the entire time. Away from the Marines' eyes.
  • Saw the fruit and took the advantage, Yami Yami was eaten by Blackbeard.
  • And Gura Gura was eaten by Xebec's soul which reincarnated.

But if either of them came back and were still alive the fruit wouldn’t respawn allowing either one to eat it

Though like you said the Yomi fruit is arguably the weirdest fruit in the series anyway

No other fruit has an ability that truly “breaks the boundary” like the Yomi fruit. I mean straight up revival is pretty insane if you think about it

The question really depends on whether or not a fruit is stored in your body or your soul which we still don’t know

And then there’s also Brook being able to use soul-like abilities due to the Yomi fruit

But then again we don’t know if it’s Yomi specific or does he maybe have the residuals of the fruit

Through Big Mom we know certain parts of a fruit can persist even after the originals death (Mother Caramels homies continued to exist even after she died)

There’s a lot that could go into a theory like this tbh

The way I see it, Oda created an exception for the fruit.
Brook has a soul-like ability, not reincarnation-like.
The fruit is about Revival, not fruit manipulation.

But again, as Brook has a Weakness for the sea. He should be a DF user. But what if an exception was created?

  • First User of Yomi eats the fruit.
  • Fruit never activates unless it dies. Means the fruit is practically useless even if they die.
  • They die the first time
  • Soul comes back, Power is given.
  • The fruit reincarnated itself. And eaten by someone and gives no power.

In this case.
  • The previous user of Yomi ate the fruit.
  • Didn't get any powers.
  • Expired.
  • Brook ate the fruit
  • The previous user got the power.
  • Brook has no powers.
  • Brook expires
  • The reincarnated user also expires.
  • Brook comes back with powers.
  • The fruit is reincarnated.
  • Xebec consumes it.
  • Brook never dies due to the anomaly.
  • Xebec is present but in fragments because half of the power is within Brook.

Brooks fruit is connected to his very soul. He still has the curse where he can’t swim and his fruit is giving him abilities still.

As such I feel like brooks fruit couldn’t have reincarnated cause then there’d be two users of the same fruit at the same time which is impossible.

Like Yasheen said the main hole in the theory is that his body still retains all of the fruit weaknesses for some reason

I’m not sure how that would be possible if the fruit could’ve existed in multiple people
