Sube Sube no Mi

Information

The Sube Sube no Mi or Slip Slip Fruit as its called in the english dub makes the user's body slippery, most attacks and all objects to slide off his or her body, protecting the user from harm in most situations. As seen with Alvida if one is overweight in anyway they will become slim. It also appears to share characteristics with the Gomu Gomu No Mi in that the user seems to be permanently altered after consuming the fruit, since Alvida was not seen reverting to her former state after getting captured and coming into contact with nets lined with seastone.

Strength

Makes the user immune to attacks either by weapon or by hand to hand combat.

Weakness

While the fruit powers render the user literally untouchable, they can still be affected by certain aspects. For example, Smoker was able to restrain Alvida, along with Buggy and his crew, by summoning smoke around them using his Devil Fruit powers. Other than that, they are still affected by standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Attacks


 * Kanabou/(Iron Club): an unnamed attack where Alvida smashes an opponent with her massive iron mace. The fact that she was able to lift the heavy mace despite her rather frail yet flawles appearance suggests that she retains her normal strength back then right before she consumed her Devil Fruit. The attack itself has nothing to do with her Devil Fruit ability whatsoever. Interestingly, instead of getting hurt, males injured by the mace instead exhibits "love-struck" symptoms (similar to the ones Sanji gets whenever he's in close proximity with beautiful women) after getting hit by Alvida.


 * Sube Sube Spur/Slip Slip Tracks: Buggy's crew sets up a ramp for Alvida. She takes off her sandals and slides down it with her Sube Sube no Mi powers and slides along the ground at about the same speed as Buggy's Bara Bara Car.
