The Gasha Gasha no Mi is a non-canon Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to telekinetically disassemble objects and reassemble them into whatever they please, making them an Assimilation Human (合体人間, Gattai Ningen?, Funimation: "Combinable Human"). It was eaten by Douglas Bullet.[1]
Etymology[]
- Gashagasha (ガシャガシャ/がしゃがしゃ?) is a Japanese onomatopoeia that refers to pieces of metal, etc. hitting each other noisily (i.e. "clatter", "clank", "rattle"), or can simply mean cluttered/disordered/messy.
Appearance[]
The Gasha Gasha no Mi is a round, blue fruit with a crooked stem. It is dotted with a variety of bumps in multiple defined shapes, ranging from circles to hexagons. Each of these bumps has a noticeable spiral on them.[2]
Strengths and Weaknesses[]
Bullet using the fruit's power.
With the fruit's power, the user is capable of creating large mechanical structures and vessels, including submarines and robot suits that increase their fighting prowess and transportation capabilities. As with all Devil Fruits, this one has the potential to be "awakened", which allows the user to disassemble and reformat objects from a much greater range, even the environment itself.[3]
Aside from the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses, this fruit is entirely dependent on the resources the user has at their disposal and their own efficiency. The user must also know what they are making, meaning one needs a large amount of mechanical knowledge.[1]
Usage[]
Bullet uses his fruit to form a large variety of mechanical creations, most notably creating giant exoskeletons to significantly augment his physical power.
As an awakened Devil Fruit user, Bullet can disassemble objects from a greater range and also essentially restructure the landscape of entire islands by disassembling and reassembling their features as he sees fit.
Bullet in his enhanced state.
Bullet can also alter himself to enter a powered state combining his powers and Armament Haki, similar to Luffy's Gear 4. In this state, Bullet's body turns shining blue with red eyes and his arms are expanded and compressed as if they were formed by tires. In this form, his strength and speed are further enhanced by his Haki as well as his offensive power.[3]
Techniques[]
- Union Armado (
鎧合体 , Union Arumādo?, literally translated as "Armor Assimilation"): Bullet first touches the two round spears on his submarine filled with swords, cannons, and firearms and then activates his Devil Fruit powers. He combined his submarine and the weapons to form into a giant mech and controls it from the inside of it to fight his opponents. It was first used against the Supernovas as they tried to fight Bullet.[3] This is known as Union Armada in the Funimation dub. Armado is Spanish for "armored". - Ultimate Faust (ウルティメイト・ファウスト, Arutimeito Fausuto?, literally meaning "Ultimate Fist"): After assimilating his mech and becoming an island size golem, Bullet first assimilated a giant arm and coat it with Armament Haki before punching his opponents. It was first used to split all of Delta Island into pieces with a single blow as a show of force by Bullet. It was again used against Luffy but was unsuccessful and his giant arm cracked and crumbled.[3] Faust is German for "fist". This attack retains its name in the Funimation dub and is called Ultimate Fist in the Funimation subs.
- Det Sterkeste Strike (
最強の一撃 , Dē Steikuste Sutoraiku?, literally meaning "The Strike of the Strongest"): In his powered state Bullet punches his opponent repeatedly. It was first seen used against Luffy's Gomu Gomu no King Kong Gatling.[3] Det Sterkeste is Norwegian for "the strongest". This attack also retains its name in the Funimation dub and is called The Strongest Strike in the Funimation subs.
History[]
When a 13-years old Bullet was at his limits during his military services in Galzburg, he came across the Gasha Gasha no Mi and ate it, gaining enough energy to survive and press forward.[4]
Trivia[]
- The fruit's power is slightly similar to Eustass Kid's Jiki Jiki no Mi which allows him to manipulate magnetic forces, as it has been used to fashion new objects out of metal parts. Its power of combining objects is also similar to the power of the Gocha Gocha no Mi, although the latter focuses mainly on combining living things, while the former focuses on inanimate things.
- The required knowledge of mechanics to make full use of this fruit is similar to the Ope Ope no Mi's in terms of medical knowledge.
