Ori Ori no Mi

The Ori Ori no Mi, is a Paramecia type Devil Fruit that allows the user to bind their foes in iron shackles by having their foes pass either through the user's body or through the various metal bars the user can create. Ori means cage in Japanese. It is called the Bind-Bind Fruit in the Viz Manga and the Cage-Cage Fruit in the 4Kids and Funimation dub. It was eaten by Hina.

Strengths and Weaknesses
The major strength of the fruit, as demonstrated by Hina, is that it gives the user the ability to bind their foes via two main means. The first is by having their foes simply pass through their body. The second is having their foes pass through the metal bars that the user can create.

The fruit so far doesn't seem to have any specific weaknesses outside the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Usage
The fruit's bestowed powers, as used by Hina, have been used so far for mostly for the subduing of opponents. She can simply bind an opponent that passes through her, or be as complex as forming a cage from her arms to surround them. The named technique that is used by Hina that involves the Devil Fruit are as follows:
 * Awase "Baori" (袷 "羽檻", Lined Kimono "Feather Cage"): After surrounding an area with a fence-like cage with bars coming out of her arms, Hina closes the cage and binds anyone that is caught in the bars. The first part of the technique's name is based on the fact that the way the cage's bars come out of her arms resembles kimono sleeves. The second part of the technique's name is based on the fact that the bars that encase those within the fence resemble feathers. This was first seen being used to attack Luffy at Marineford.
