Horo Horo no Mi

The Horo Horo no Mi, also known as the Horo Horo Fruit, is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to produce ghosts. "Horo" means ghost in Japanese. Horo can also be interpreted as Hollow. Horo can also refer to the way Perona laughs. This fruit was eaten by Perona.

Strengths and Weaknesses
The major strength of the fruit firstly, as demonstrated by Perona, is that it gives it's user the ability of to produce spectral replicas that they can control. These replicas can come in different forms. The most basic of this forms are Negative Ghosts. Should a person be passed through by one of these, they immediately fall on their knees in manner similar to Foxy and become very negative about themselves. These replicas can also be used to gather information from different areas.

Though the power of the user's Negative Ghosts are seemingly unavoidable, they have no affect on a person who is orignally pessimistic about himself. This is clearly seen when several of Perona's Negative Ghosts passed through Usopp. Usopp, being pessimistic about his own abilities, was completely unaffected by them.

The user also apparently, when using more advanced Devil Fruit techniques, becomes completely limp and immobile. Why this is so has yet to be fully explained.

Other than those, the user is also susceptible to standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Usage
The fruit's bestowed powers, as used by Perona, have been used for both combat and information gathering situations. She has used her Negative Ghosts to weaken enemies so that her allies, like Absalom's Zombie Soldiers, can have an upper advantage. She has also used her ghosts in an elaborate information gathering system, called "Ghost Network", in order to monitor things around and on Thriller Bark.

Perona is also able to use her Devil Fruit powers to create other kinds of ghosts. One ghost she can create looks perfectly like her in every detail. This ghost is able to float in midair, go through solid objects, and change shape. This ghost allows her to attack opponents without them attacking her directly. Perona is also able to create miniature explosive ghosts which she can use against her opponents.

The named techniques that are used by Perona that involve the Devil Fruit are as follows:


 * Negative Hollow: Perona sends out multiple ghosts to drain the will of a foe, either on one person or many.


 * Mini Hollow (ミニホロ): Perona creates miniature ghosts the size of her palm. With these she can send and make them explode. This was first seen being performed before Usopp.


 * Ghost Rap: With the miniature ghosts, Perona sends them toward an opponent and makes them explode at the snap of her fingers. This technique in which explosive ghosts are sent towards an opponent resembles the "Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack" technique of Gotenks from Dragon Ball Z. This was first seen being used against Usopp.
