"Uchibi Sasuke ch35 Wrote:Plants had been using poisons to kill the bastards that kept eating them for millions of years, and many of them had learned that if a poison killed immediately, then the damn herbivores would be forced to quickly evolve a countermeasure, but slow poisons kept them from living long enough to breed too many times, and the bastards could have fun dying of liver failure and cancer from mutagenic poisons.
To understand plants, it is good to keep in mind that there is no plant matter that isn't poisonous. Sure, there are some parts that are designed for specific animals to eat (for instance, peaches), but they don't remove the poison from them, goodness no. That would be just as unplantly as not being a bastard would be unUchiha. They just packaged the antidote with the poison.
