remember law worked for doflamingo earlier maybe thats he got an artificial devils fruit for bepo. (momonosuke became a dragon after eating one and couldnt transform back) maybe bepo's fruit may have a similar  side effect considering it to be an earlier prototype.

same goes for pekkoms as doflamingo is said to have been delivering these fruits to one of the yonkou.(all talking animals may  be artificial devil fruit users and not a seperate race)

as for sharleys farsight ability it maybe be some variation of observation haki i am not sure on this one though.

and i agree with the technology stuff, the toys and all seems quite weird
