Talk:Gura Gura no Mi

Paramecia or Logia?
How can we tell if this is a Paramecia or Logia Devil Fruit? What if it is a Logia that allows Whitebeard to manipulate and become the element of earth? I known, it's just like the Doku Doku no Mi all over again, but should we just say it is a Paramecia just like that? Yatanogarasu 09:49, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

How do you become an Earthquake? for now its just speculation on all his fruits abilities, and Magellan wasnt a logia, he just had immunity to his own poisons, kinda like how we can swim in water... -Umi


 * I'm pretty sure Yatanogarasu, that if Whitebeard were a Logia, he would've sent a large pillar of rock into the ocean to cause the earthquake not break the fabric of space and time with his bare hands.Mugiwara Franky 23:39, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Obviously it's not Logia, but it might not be Paramecia either. It might be a whole new kind of Devil Fruit.-YonkouWhitebeard

I know I don't contribute anything on this wiki but I feel the need to express my opinion in this case. I have to agree with mugiwara franky, a Logia of the element "Earth" would resemble earth in some fasion, just like every other Logia. Remember every single Logia fruit allows the user to do three specific things; turn into that element, generate that element, and control that element. Even though the Yami Yami fruit is unique in how the user turns into that element, the user is still able to do so. We have not seen any indication that White Beard has the power to turn into "earth", and I don't believe we will. Also, when considering if it is a Paramecia or not because of its abilities remember that explanations for how certain Paramecia fruit work are somewhat lax. Some good examples of this are the Noro Noro no mi and the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi. From the abilities we've seen thus far from the Gura Gura no Mi, I think it's clear that it can be lumped in as a paramecia. I also doubt it's a new type of fruit, since the devil fruit "rules" seem to be established already and a new fruit type would throw everything out of wack. My final verdict is that the Gura Gura no Mi is a Paramecia and not a Logia, because it fits the definition of a Paramecia and not that of a Logia.LungCancer420 17:03, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

The fruit's true power
I think that this Devil Fruit's true power is to create shock waves (quakes) anywhere, not just "earthquakes". Chapter 553, Pages 6-7, Whitebeard shatters the air, and the ice spears created by Aokiji shattered, as well as Aokiji himself. They were in midair at the time, and the ground didn't shake. Should we put all this down? Yatanogarasu 11:29, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * After all, Sengoku claimed that Whitebeard is a "Quake Man", not an "Earthquake Man", meaning that he can create "quakes" anywhere. Yatanogarasu 11:33, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
