This might be a little far-fetched too, but hey don't we all love going far to fetch theories? Anywho, I think we've got a lot more to learn about Devil Fruits, and ultimately will. Specifically, I'm thinking of Zoans. As we've seen, there are many subcategories for certain species. For example, theres a dog category, but in this dog category, there are multiple variations of dogs that are available. Chaka, and Mr. 4's bazooka are two that we saw in the same arc. Chopper has a human fruit, but Sengoku has one as well, that just so happens to be a mythical figure (Buddha). So obviously the rabbit hole can go much deeper. Literally the realm of possibilities is endless when discussing variations of humans, and we know just how crazy Oda can make things, so let your imagination wander. What if, and this is a big if, there exists a Zoan human fruit variation for a figure like a wizard or a warlock? Or in this case I'm thinking a WITCH. Big Mom resembles a witch in a lot of ways, from the way she looks, all the way down to the sound of her voice. Would it not add a little more sense to some of the things we've seen? She's got a nakama with 3 frickin eyes, another that looks like a miniature bobblehead doll that can talk, lives on an island made of frickin cake, and has a ship that sings about being a ship like it's self aware...There's absolutely no frickin way any of those things are natural, especially the latter 2. So in my mind, it makes perfect sense that magic or sorcery of some kind is involved. She is a yonko after all, so having kind of ability that makes her uber-powerful isn't that too crazy of a theory is it? Considering all that, giving a Lion the ability to talk is kinda the lowest on my weirdness scale.

I think Basil Hawkins has a fruit of this kind of variation too, but we can table that discussion for another time.
