Revision as of 01:52, 18 January 2012
Template:Devil Fruit box The Numa Numa no Mi is a Logia-type[1] Devil Fruit that allows the user to become an element of "swamp" making the user a "Swamp Man". "Numa" (沼) means "swamp" or "bog". In the FUNimation subs, it is called the Swamp-Swamp Fruit. It was consumed by Caribou.
Strengths and Weaknesses
With the Numa Numa no Mi, Caribou can create bottomless[2] swamps which are impossible to escape from. If someone is caught by the swamp created by Caribou, they will sink more if they struggle. The swamp also serves as a storage space, allowing Caribou to store an infinite amount of whatever he has captured inside his body. He is able to keep creatures capable of breathing water, such as mermaids, alive while they are in his swamp.[3] Whether he can keep creatures only capable of breathing air alive in his swamp is unknown.
Like most of the other Logia users, Caribou cannot be hit or sliced as his element is intangible, and any attacks will be absorbed into his body harmlessly,[1] though more like Marshall D. Teach, Caribou cannot allow the attacks to phase through his body; instead, it must be absorbed. The thick liquid produced by the fruit's power is probably mud, which is found near marshes and bogs, and Franky did describe it as "mud-like".[4]
The major weakness of this fruit is that the user cannot transform back to their normal form if they are confined in a space that their normal body can't fit in. Due to this weakness, Franky was able to capture and seal Caribou in a barrel easily. Other than that the user is affected by the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.
Usage
Caribou absorbing a sword stab harmlessly into his body while suffocating a Marine.
With his Devil Fruit powers, Caribou can create bottomless swamps by turning his lower body into a swamp. Via this transformation, he can capture living beings like he did when he used his powers to capture some mermaids. His "bottomless" swamp can be used as a storage place for his captured mermaids or the treasure he took from Ryugu Palace. In fact, his fighting style lies in storing several weapons like gatling guns and scythes inside his swamp body.
Caribou can also use it to suffocate his opponents by encasing their head in a sphere of swamp.[5] Like other Logia users he can evade (or in his case, absorb) attacks by turning his body into the related element, in this case, swamp. He also displayed a vast arsenal inside his body, from a Gatling gun coming from his belly and shooting his enemies, to a scythe in an attempt to decapitate his enemies.
By becoming a swamp (or rather, a puddle of mud), Caribou can extend parts of his body, such as his ear, for eavesdropping while hanging on the side of a building to avoid detection.[6]
Attacks
- Numa Numa no Gatling Gun (ヌマヌマのガトリングガン, Numa Numa no Gatoringu Gan?, literally meaning "Swamp Swamp Gatling Gun): A gatling gun comes out from Caribou's "bottomless" swamp stomach and he shoots his opponents with it. It was first seen used against Pekoms.[7]
Anime and Manga Differences
- In the manga, Caribou first revealed his powers by suffocating Drip and absorbing a cannonball fired by fake Sogeking. In the anime, he revealed his Devil Fruit during the battle against the Marines when a Marine soldier struck him with a sword.
Trivia
- This fruit's power that revolves around absorption, as well as granting the user an infinite space within the body, makes it very similar to the Yami Yami no Mi.
- The Numa Numa no Mi was the first new Devil Fruit revealed after the timeskip.
