Numa Numa no Mi

The Numa Numa no Mi is a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to become an element of "swamp" making the user a "Swamp Man". "Numa" (沼) means "swamp" or "bog". It was consumed by Caribou.

Strengths and Weaknesses
With the Numa Numa no Mi, Caribou can create bottomless swamps which are impossible to escape from. If someone is caught by the swamp created by Caribou, they will sink more if they struggle. The swamp also serves as a storage space, allowing Caribou to store an infinite amount of whatever he has captured inside his body, and keep it alive if he chooses to, or kill it by depriving it of oxygen. Like most of the other Logia users Caribou cannot be hit or sliced as his element is intangible, and any attacks will be absorbed into his body harmlessly, though more like Marshall D. Teach, Caribou cannot allow the attacks to phase through his body; instead, it must be absorbed. The thick liquid produced by the fruit's power is probably mud, which is found near marshes and bogs, and Franky did describe it as "mud-like".

The major weakness of this fruit is that the user cannot transform back to their normal form if they are confined in a space that their normal body can't fit in. Due to this weakness, Franky was able to capture and seal Caribou in a barrel easily. Other than that the user is affected by the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Usage


With his Devil Fruit powers, Caribou can create bottomless swamps by turning his lower body into a swamp. He can also capture living beings like he did when he used his powers to capture some mermaids. He uses the "infinite space" within his body to store those mermaids as prisoners. Caribou can also use it to suffocate his opponents by encasing their head in a sphere. Like other Logia users he can evade attacks by turning his body into the related element, in this case, swamp.

Trivia

 * This fruit's power that revolves around absorption, as well as granting the user an infinite space within the body, makes it very similar to the Yami Yami no Mi.
 * The Numa Numa no Mi was the first Devil Fruit revealed after the timeskip.
