Fruit of Wisdom
The Fruit of Wisdom (知恵の果実, Chie no Kajitsu?) is grown from a Tree of Knowledge once in a millennium, among several other fruit with the similar orange-colored grape-shape. Once consumed, it makes any being's brain undergo an accelerated evolution process, endowing it with a genius intellect. The only ones to ingest the fruit were Akutagami (who became a super-genius) and three Jaryuu who intended in vain to unionize the Jaryuu Tribe, much to Ryuuwon's dismay. However, the fruit's effects are limited, and after the fruit is completely digested, the mind of the consumer reverts to its original state.
