Tatsu Tatsu no Mi, Model: Earthland Dragon



The Tatsu Tatsu no Mi: (lit. Dragon-Dragon Fruit) Model Earthland Dragon is a Mythical Zoan-type devil fruit that allows the user to transform into an dragon and dragon hybrid forms at will. Based on a European Dragon, the dragon is a huge fire-breathing, tough scale like skin, scaly and horned dinosaur-like creature, with leathery wings, with four legs and a long muscular tail.

Appearance
The Tatsu Tatsu no Mi: Model Earthland Dragon looks like a purple watermelon with yellow swirls on it.

Strengths
Due to the Rukku's black sword consist of material that is as almost as tough as seastone, the scales of its dragon and dragon hybrid form combines with the sword's material to be tough as seastone and also results in it scale skin color to be black. In its dragon and dragon hybrid form, it can breath red & orange fire that melt rocks. In its dragon hybrid form, it can transform the blade into either its tail which can behave as a sharp blade whip or as its head. In its dragon form, it can fly as fast as a train.

Weaknesses
The user suffers from the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses. Since a dragon is a reptile, it is susceptible to ice, cold water, and cold environments, such as winter islands. However, since this dragon can breath fire, it can keep itself warm but only for a limited amount of time or it will hiberate until it is taken to a warmer enviroment. While it hiberates, its devil fruit ability can not be used.

Usage
The fruit was accidently "eaten" by a black sword owned by Guddo Rukku. The dragon/sword's name is Dragamence.

Trivia
After the surprising discovery of Rukku's sword transform into a dragon, Rukku named it Dragamence.

Dragamence seems to develop a personality while traveling with Rukku even thought its originates from a weapon.
