Uta Uta no Mi

The Uta Uta no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to transport people's consciousnesses into a virtual space by singing. It was eaten by Uta.

Etymology

 * Uta (歌) is the Japanese word for "song".

Appearance
The Uta Uta no Mi is a round, pink fruit with a green stem shaped like a musical note. There are four colored rings around the middle of the fruit, in the following order from top to bottom: yellow, orange, red, blue; which form lines reminiscent of those of the staff. Like all Devil Fruits, its surface is covered in spirals.

Strengths and Weaknesses
The main strength of this fruit is that it allows the user to transport the consciousnesses (essentially their spirits) of people who hear them singing, including their own, into a virtual space known as the Uta World. The physical bodies of those trapped in Uta World remain unconscious. Within this world, the user is virtually omnipotent, possessing complete control and can manipulate reality as they choose. It is impossible for others to leave Uta World on their own. In addition, the user is able to control the unconscious real-world bodies of those trapped in Uta World. Curiously, while physically no one is able to enter or leave without the ability user, images can be livestreamed from Uta World to the real world via Den Den Mushi. Should the user die, the spirits of those trapped in Uta World will remain stuck there. As noted, it is not even necessary for the user to physically be present in order to send others into Uta World, as seen where the livestream recording of Uta concert was able to take the souls of Uta’s fans from across the world via Den Den Mushi video and audio.

The weakness of the ability is that Uta World can only be maintained as long as the user remains awake. It also consumes a lot of stamina to maintain the ability for long periods of time. Potential targets can also protect themselves from the user's power by blocking their hearing from the user's music. This even applies in the Uta World, where a target can either hide in soundproof areas or contain the user in a soundproof containment-like field. Also, while the user is omnipotent in Uta World, they are not omniscient, as such people can escape her as long as they evade the user and whatever they may create. They also can't manipulate the will of others, though they can alter their spirit bodies. This applies to objects as well, as the spirit body of the Thousand Sunny, Sunny-kun fought against Uta and not with her. Other than that, the user is affected by the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Previous User
At some point in the past, a previous user of the fruit used its abilities to seal away Tot Musica, locking it behind a song. It is unclear how this was achieved.

Uta
Uta uses this power to transport those present at her concert into Uta World.

Past
At some point in history, the previous user used a song to seal away Tot Musica deep in the ruins beneath the kingdom of Elegia.

One Piece Film: Red
Uta used it to ensare around 70% of the world population.

Trivia

 * The Uta Uta no Mi is one of two devil fruits to share its Japanese name with its user's name, the other being Toki Toki no Mi.
 * The fruit's power is similar to the Nemu Nemu no Mi as it puts its victims in a sleep-like state within a controllable dream world.
 * Like the Oto Oto no Mi, this is another music-based fruit.
 * They also share the same weakness, in the aspect of the target only being affected by the user's power if they can hear the user's song.
