Guru Guru no Mi

The Guru Guru no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to become a Rotation Human (回転人間), creating propellers around their body giving them the ability of flight. It was eaten by Buffalo.

Etymology

 * "Guruguru" (ぐるぐる/グルグル) is a Japanese onomatopoeia that means (turning) round and round/in circles (or wrapping/winding around).
 * In the Viz Manga and Funimation subs, it is called the Spin-Spin Fruit.

Strengths and Weaknesses
The Guru Guru no Mi grants its eater the power to transform any part of their body or piece of worn clothing into propellers capable of rotation at high speed. The force of the spinning is strong enough to enable propelled flight by the user over very long distances, to assist in the carrying or thrown launch of objects and other people, and to create powerful windstorms.

A person of sufficient strength can grab onto the user's rotational parts and stop the spinning, and can even do damage by twisting the parts themselves. Besides that, the user is also vulnerable to the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Usage
Buffalo mastered the Guru Guru no Mi to the point where he can turn his whole body into a mode of transportation. Even though Buffalo usually assumes a specific pose when he flies, he is still capable of moving his body freely when needed while still remaining midair. While on the ground, he can rapidly rotate his legs in a vertical fashion, allowing him to use them like roller skates.

He also uses his power to execute team-attacks with his partner Baby 5, who uses her Buki Buki no Mi powers.

Techniques

 * Toppu: Matasaburo (突風 又三郎): Buffalo spins around to create a gust of wind powerful enough to disperse Shinokuni. Matasaburo is a character from Kenji Miyazawa's story "Matasaburo of the Wind" (風の又三郎), who can control and ride on wind. This is called Gust - Matasaburo in the Viz manga and Funimation subs and Storm Gust - Matasaburo in the Funimation dub.




 * Guru Guru Toshaho (グルグル投射砲): After Baby 5 transforms into a large missile with her abilities, Buffalo spins his arms around his body to throw her against the enemy. The momentum and speed gained from the spinning, combined with Baby 5's ability to move in midair to dodge incoming enemy fire, makes this technique very hard to avoid and very powerful. It was used for the first time against Franky in his General Franky. This is called Spin-Spin Projectile Cannon in the Viz manga and Funimation subs and Spin Projectile Cannon in the Funimation dub.

History
Buffalo ate the Guru Guru no Mi at no older than age 17, as he was seen using its powers above the Birdcage on Minion Island.

Trivia

 * The Guru Guru no Mi is very similar to the Shari Shari no Mi, as both fruits revolve around rotation.
