Saint Killingham, a World Noble hailing from the Rimoshifu family, became one of the members of the God’s Knights. Killingham consumed the Ryu Ryu no Mi, Model: Kirin devil fruit, a Mythical Zoan-type devil fruit at some point in his life. Killingham’s devil fruit allows him to take the majestic form of Qilin, a single-horned mythical creature from Chinese Mythology.

Killingham received versatile abilities through Ryu Ryu no Mi, Model: Kirin Devil Fruit. First off, he can make his targets fall asleep from any distance. Then, he also has the power to draw the dreams of slumbering targets and turn them into reality. For example, Killigham manifested all of the giant kids’ nightmares and unleashed them into the nation. Therefore, the Ryu Ryu no Mi, Model: Kirin devil fruit quickly rose up as one of the best Mythical Zoan devil fruits of all time.

Killingham Devil Fruit’s Powers and Abilities

Now that you have learned about his basic ability, let’s go over everything we know about the strengths and weaknesses of Ryu Ryu no Mi, Model: Kirin Devil Fruit:

Strengths

  • Take on the form of a mythical beast and can maintain a hybrid form like other Zoan users.
  • The user can make their targets fall asleep from a distance.
  • Then the user pulls out the targets’ dreams and conjures them into reality.
  • The manifested creatures, called MMA, can be resurrected as much as the user wants, as the concept of death doesn’t apply to them.
  • Only the user can awaken those who have been put to sleep.

Weaknesses

  • There is a time limit for keeping the targets asleep.
  • The manifested creatures’ strength depends on how strong the target imagines it to be.

Devil Fruit Awakening & Hybrid Form

As you are aware, Killingham has been in a completely mythical beast form since his arrival. Moreover, Killingham also has a cloud floating around his neck, which implies that he has awakened his Devil Fruit power already. Since the original mythical creature, Qilin is a symbol of good fortune, Oda must have given a goofy design for the beast form.

This leads us to think that Killingham is not entirely lost, and there is a chance that he may end up on the good side. As soon as we had a sigh of relief, Oda revealed the menacing hybrid form of Killingham in the latest chapter 1151.

His face is not something we expected to see as he exudes the fearsome presence of a terrifying villain. Killingham’s human face is a mix of Madam Shyarly and Dellinger, which hints that he could be a strong Fishman. However, we don’t think a Fishman would have been accepted as a God’s Knight, let alone a World Noble.

Killingham’s new hybrid appearance is the talk of the town right now, and this Holy Knight can’t be redeemed any more. He is a skilled user of this mythical Zoan as he doesn’t seem to be tired even after giving birth to the nightmares that are currently wreaking havoc in Elbaf. Killingham has switched to his hybrid and is taking care of the giant warriors. We can’t wait to watch more of his powers unravel in the upcoming chapters.
