The Deka Deka no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows its user to drastically enlarge their body, making them a Gigantification Human (巨大化人間, Kyodai-ka Ningen?).[2] It was eaten by Sanjuan Wolf.[1]

Etymology[]

  • Dekai (でかい?) means "huge" in Japanese.
  • Deka- is also the metric prefix for tenfold (×10).

Strengths and Weaknesses[]

The Deka Deka no Mi's ability is to greatly increase the user's body size. It is unknown how tall the ability could make a human, but when wielded by the giant Sanjuan Wolf, it allows him to increase his height to maximum of roughly ten times an ordinary giant's height, making him the largest individual in the world.[3] It seems the gigantification of the eater is permanent upon consumption of the fruit, as the current user, Wolf, did not revert to his original size even when submerged under the sea.[4][5]

Due to the user's increased size, it can be difficult for them to be rescued or helped should they happen to find themself in a particular dangerous situation.[5] They might also cause unintended damage due to their size, particularly in cramped areas.[6] Apart from this, the user suffers from the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Usage[]

Sanjuan Wolf, who was a giant from start, has used this ability to become the largest person in the world, with a maximum height of 180 m (590'6").[3] Despite being weak against water, he is tall enough to stand in certain parts of the ocean, though he did mention that doing so was exhausting to him.[4]

History[]

Wolf ate this fruit sometime prior to being imprisoned in Impel Down.[1]

Trivia[]

  • The Deka Deka no Mi is the inverse of two non-canon Devil Fruits:
    • The Mini Mini no Mi which turns the user smaller. Coincidentally, both were eaten by giants, and both seem to use their transformed state as their default form.
    • The Moa Moa no Mi which turns other objects bigger.
  • This fruit's main ability to increase the user's own size is similar to one of the Gomu Gomu no Mi's awakened techniques and a technique of the Toshi Toshi no Mi.
  • This was the final Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, and the final Devil Fruit overall, in which its powers were shown before the timeskip, though it was not named until after the timeskip.
  • This ability accomplishes gigantification, which has been a long-standing goal of the World Government and various scientists.
