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.

Famous quotes containing the words fruit of, fruit and/or wisdom:
“As for America, it is the ideal fruit of all your youthful hopes and reforms. Everybody is fairly decent, respectable, domestic, bourgeois, middle-class, and tiresome. There is absolutely nothing to revile except that it’s a bore.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
“The goldenrod is yellow,
The corn is turning brown,
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down.”
—Helen Hunt Jackson (1830–1885)
“We are in fact convinced that if we are ever to have pure knowledge of anything, we must get rid of the body and contemplate things by themselves with the soul by itself. It seems, to judge from the argument, that the wisdom which we desire and upon which we profess to have set our hearts will be attainable only when we are dead and not in our lifetime.”
—Socrates (469–399 B.C.)
