Emporio Face Growth Hormones
Didn't Iva use the face growth thing so he/she can make a more powerfull "Death Wink" and not to "intimidate the guards positioned to prevent their escape". http://www.onemanga.com/One_Piece/541/18-19/ --Thenewjericho 08:05, 5 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Indeed he did make his face bigger to make a more powerful Death Wink.Mugiwara Franky 08:18, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Chapter 546
In the background of this chapter were a lot of ugly looking men wearing makeup and women's clothings and such; you think this is implying that when Ivankov is incapicated, that his female hormones wear off of other people?

But to answer your question, if hormones are injected into a person, the effects are going to be temporary. However, (this is unlikely, but) the Devil's fruit could have some sort of power of permanance. Until we see a female escapee "deflate", this is all speculation. 2xN 12:46, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * First off, I think it's safer to say these men simply prefer to dress up as women, rather than actually being women. Keep in mind there were a bunch of these men in Newkama Land.

Max. Capacity ≥ 235
I added that Iva's afro, when his head is fortified with the Facial Growth Hormone, has been seen to host 235 Impel Down escapees. (the 241 total minus himself, Luffy, Crocodile, Buggy, Mr.1, and Jimbei). Does this need to be verified somewhere or is it kosher to keep it in? 2xN 12:37, May 18, 2010 (UTC)

hormones in real life.. what?
the last part of the trivia kinda baffles me since i doubt "i n real life, hormones can be used to enhance the body in specific ways, including turning a man into a woman and vice versa." is accurate.. Lichy (talk) 15:20, November 8, 2012 (UTC)

Maybe not as easy. But it is possible. It takes time and costs a lot of money but it is possible.

Yes, Ivankov's ability is basically an accelerated part of gender reassignment surgery, which includes hormone treatments. 17:45, November 8, 2012 (UTC)

but it doesn't physically change your gender, in real life they still do a surgery to make a complete change... otherwise men who had ther sex changed could get pregnant o.O and people wouldn't wonder if they chopped his wee-wee off because it would have just turned into a vaj-vaj :o Lichy (talk) 22:20, November 8, 2012 (UTC)

It's a manga, there are some things you have to just accept. If you hold it to real world standards you'll just go crazy with all these inconsistencies. 22:42, November 8, 2012 (UTC)

well ofc but im talking about the trivia point that says "i n real life, hormones can be used to enhance the body in specific ways, including turning a man into a woman and vice versa." which talks about real life, not manga. Lichy (talk) 23:13, November 8, 2012 (UTC)
