Supa Supa no Mi

The Supa Supa no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that enables the user's body to gain characteristics of a steel blade to attack opponents with, making the user a Fullbody Bladed Human (全身刃物人間). It was eaten by Daz Bonez, also known by his Baroque Works alias Mr. 1.

The fruit's powers were first seen being used by Daz to slice a wall he was about to hit, after he had been kicked by Mr. 2. The fruit's powers were fully revealed when Daz and Zoro began to battle.

This fruit's abilities were duplicated in the Seraph S-Hawk, via a transfusion of Green Blood.

Etymology

 * Supasupa (すぱすぱ/スパスパ) is a Japanese onomatopoeia for repetitively, cleanly cutting (such as with a knife); supari (すぱり/スパリ) means to cut off in a single clean cut.
 * In the Viz Manga and the 4Kids and Funimation dubs, it is called the Dice-Dice Fruit.

Strengths and Weaknesses


The major strength of the fruit, as demonstrated by Daz, is that its user can create strong blades from any part of their body. The ability allows the user's body to gain characteristics of steel, more specifically a blade. The user is immune to normal slashing attacks and can cut through almost anything.

The user seems to have the ability to cut through objects without the need to physically touch them; likely a similar principle to flying slashes used by various swordsmen. This has been shown through Daz's Atomic Spurt, Spar Break and Spar Claw, the latter in at least one instance. Also, as demonstrated by moves like Daz's Spiral Hollow, the blades created by the user can also rotate quickly and on their own, acting almost like drills or spinning fans.

While the user is generally immune to being cut by swords, any specialized attack capable of slashing through steel is capable of slicing the user's flesh. Aside from this, the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses apply.

Daz Bonez


As an assassin and martial artist, Daz primarily uses the fruit's bestowed powers for combat, using them both for defense and offense. His style consists mainly of slashes, karate chops and acrobatic kicks that are further enhanced by the effects of his Devil Fruit. He also has the ability to sprout blades on the sole of his feet in order to skate around.

In spite of his heavy reliance in blades, Daz does not consider himself a swordsman. Also, until he met Roronoa Zoro, Daz had claimed that no swordsman had ever so much put a scratch on his body. For this reason, Daz intentionally let his guard down and goaded Zoro into attempting to cut him down multiple times during that fight, confident that the pirate hunter would be unable to wound him, which turned out to be the case for most of the battle.

The named techniques used by Daz all contain a pun ("supa") in their name due to way they are pronounced in Japanese. Super Breaker for instance is pronounced as Supa Breaker in Japanese. In the Viz Manga and 4Kids dub, this pun is absent.

Techniques



 * Spider: Remaining completely motionless, Daz hardens his body and becomes impervious to harm, similar in principle to Tekkai. This was first seen during Daz and Zoro's battle. This is called Iron Guard in the Viz Manga and 4Kids dub and Spider Defense in the Funimation dub.




 * Spar Claw: Bones turns the undersides of his fingers into blades before slashing at his opponent. If he performs this move with enough force, he can even split objects behind his intended target. While the attack's name is mentioned in the manga, it is unnamed in the anime. This was first seen when Daz was attacking Nami, but was named during his battle with Zoro. In the Viz Manga, this is called Razor Claws. In the Funimation dub, it keeps its name.




 * Sparkling Daisy: After turning the insides of his hands and fingers into blades, Daz places his hands together wrist-to-wrist before lunging at his opponent, whom he simultaneously stabs and slices with his hands. The sheer force behind this attack causes Daz to not only cut his intended target but things behind his target as well. This was first seen during Daz and Zoro's battle. In the Viz Manga and 4Kids dub, this is called Daisy Blade. In the Funimation dub, it keeps its name.




 * Atomic Spar: After turning his fingers into blades, Daz crosses both hands over his chest before slashing forward with a downward "X" motion, instantly slicing anything in front of him. This was first seen during Daz and Zoro's battle. This is called Atomic Dicer in the Viz Manga, Atomic Spar in the Funimation dub, and Atomic Dice in the 4Kids dub.




 * Spiral Hollow: Daz creates circular blades along his forearms before making them spin, turning his forearms into mini-tiller blades that shred anything they touch. His fists remain unchanged during this attack. Due to the way the blades spin around Daz's arms, his arms resemble drills used by excavators. This was first seen during Daz and Zoro's battle. In the Viz Manga and 4Kids dub, this is called Buzz Saws. In the Funimation dub, it keeps its name.




 * Spar Break: Daz swings and crosses his bladed arms in front of him, resulting in several powerful horizontal slashes. The slashes are so sharp that they can cut objects behind the target as well. This was first seen during Daz and Zoro's battle. This is called Tower Crusher in the Viz Manga and 4Kids dub. In the Funimation dub, it keeps its name.




 * Atomic Spurt: As with many other of his attacks, Daz turns the insides of his hands and fingers into blades, but he also sprouts a blade on the bottom of each of his feet, like ice skates, and dashes towards his opponent, gaining great momentum before he strikes. This was first seen during Daz and Zoro's battle. This is called Atomic Dicer in the Viz Manga, Atomic Dash in the 4Kids dub. In the Funimation dub, it keeps its name.

S-Hawk
S-Hawk utilizes this power to complement his swordsmanship, turning his own legs into a blade that can create Flying Slash Attacks via kicking.

Trivia

 * Bones' dream of being a super hero ("Supa Hero") is a play on words with his Devil Fruit.
 * During the Impel Down breakout, the animation of Daz's bladearms were changed: his fingers completely disappeared.
 * The Supa Supa no Mi is similar in regards to the Buki Buki no Mi and the Choki Choki no Mi, as all three can be utilized to turn the user's body parts into blades. Also, compared to Baby 5's Buki Buki no Mi, the Supa Supa no Mi is considered an inferior Devil Fruit.
