One Piece Chapter 19, page 13-14: Devil's Fruit

Shanks explains the nature of the Devil's Fruit: "I ONCE HEARD THAT THE DEVIL'S FRUITS ARE ALL THE SEA-DEVIL'S INCARNATIONS. IF YOU EAT IT YOU'LL GAIN A SPECIAL ABILITY, BUT YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SWIM. Buggy laughs, "KUHAHAHAHA! DON'T WANNA EAT THAT SORTA THING AND END UP UNABLE TO SWIM FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE..." Shanks adds, "THE CAPTAIN SAID THAT WHOEVER WANTS TO EAT IT CAN HAVE IT......" Buggy thinks to himself, "HUEH... SCARY... ANYONE WHO EATS THAT SORT OF THINGS IS NO DOUBT A REAL IDIOT. IF THERE'S A TREASURE LYING ON THE SEABED AND YOU CAN'T SWIM, THEN YOU CAN'T GO AND GET IT!" Shanks then mentions, "BUT THAT ODD FRUIT... TURNS OUT IT SELLS FOR AROUND 100 MILLION BELI IF YOU CAN BELIEVE IT." Buggy is completely shocked, screaming, "WHAT? IS THAT TRUE!!" Buggy's eyes turn to Beli signs as he realizes, "IF IT'S ONE HUNDRED MILLION BELI THEN IT'S MORE THAN THE SELLING PRICE OF 10 A-RANKED TREASURE BOXES!! THE TREASURE GODDESS MUST BE SMILING DOWN AT ME RIGHT NOW!!"

Buggy stands before the gathered crew, holding up the Devil's Fruit. A crew member announces, "PIRATE TRAINEE BUGGY...! HE WILL EAT THE DEVIL'S FRUIT!!!" Buggy shoves the fruit into his mouth and swallows it with a loud "GULP!!" as the crew watches in awe, shouting, "OOHT... HE ATE IT...!!! The crew cheers, "HAHAHAH... BEING YOUNG IS A WONDERFUL THING, SINCE YOU CAN BE SO CAREFREE. GOOD GOING BUGGY. I HAVE MORE RESPECT FOR YOU NOW!!" Rayleigh asks, "SO HOW IS IT BUGGY? FEEL ANY DIFFERENCE IN YOUR BODY?" Buggy sweats and replies, "NO... NOT REALLY..." Rayleigh wonders, "WHAT?! WAS IT A FAKE?" and another crew member notes, "WELL THE STORY OF THE DEVIL'S FRUIT WAS A RUMORED STORY FROM THE START." In his mind, Buggy cackles, "KEKEKEKEKE!! YOU'VE GOT IT EXACTLY RIGHT!! WHAT I JUST ATE WAS A FAKE FRUIT I SPENT ALL NIGHT WORKING ON AND SWITCHING."
