Raki Raki no Mi

The Raki Raki no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to steal the luck of anyone by simply touching them, making them extremely unlucky. It was eaten by Baccarat.

Etymology
"Raki" comes from "Rakkī" (ラッキー), the Japanese way to pronounce the word "lucky".

Strengths and Weaknesses
By simply touching another person, the user will steal that person's luck to the point where they will become extremely unlucky, as multiple bad occurrences will immediately happen to them. The touch appears completely normal, allowing the user to make their actions inconspicuous. Once the user has absorbed enough luck from other people, they become so lucky that they are almost invincible, as any attempt to hurt them will no doubt end up in failure and they can even use simple objects such as coins that will play out in their favor, like causing accidents that will hurt their foes. A downside to this is that the user has no control of what their luck will do or how it will react, just that it will favor them.

They can also raise people's luck. If that happens, the person who was affected will suddenly become very lucky, such as how Luffy was able to win every game he played at Gran Tesoro.

One downside to this power is that its effect seems to be only temporary, as Luffy and Sanji stopped being affected by it after some time. Due to this, the luck that the user has stolen from other people can become depleted, either because enough time has passed for the absorbed luck to "return" to the user's victims, or because the user got lucky enough for all of their luck to get "spent". The user has no control on what the luck is spent on, and can accidentally be spent on something they didnt mean to happen but will end up positive. A clever opponent can abuse this and end up using up the luck quicker then the user intended.

Furthermore, the user doesn't seem to be able to consciously control whether or not their touch will affect people, as Baccarat is shown removing her gloves when using her ability.

Usage
Baccarat uses her fruit's abilities to bring down the luck of casino players, as their losses put them in debt and force them to work for Tesoro.

In combat, Baccarat sneakily touches or throws coins at her opponents to bring down bad luck upon them and defeat them.
