Hana Hana no Mi

Built around bodily replication, this Paramecia grants its holder the trick of budding copied body parts from nearly any surface, petals scattering away as those parts surface and disappear. The power rests with Nico Robin, archaeologist of the Straw Hats. Onlookers glimpsed only a hint of it when the crew first encountered her, and the true scope became plain only once she squared off against Pell.

Whoever holds this ability can bud arms, eyes, ears, or any other part from almost any surface, their own frame included, and then work those parts remotely as though they were natural extensions of the original body. Because the wielder alone knows where a limb will appear, surprise sits almost permanently on their side, which drains most of the value out of a foe's speed or muscle when a grapple or joint lock lands first. The conjured arms can strangle, wrench, stomp, or restrain a crowd of enemies together, throw up barriers and nets to block danger, and even bud eyes and ears in useful spots for scouting.

Prior to her timeskip training, Robin managed a hundred arms simultaneously and could weld them into oversized limbs, a pair of wings to break a fall, or a lattice of hands strong enough to hold a giant. Afterward the ceiling rose to a thousand parts at once, and she gained a full clothed duplicate of herself. The distinctive cost is that damage dealt to any bloomed part rebounds onto the real body, which makes the wielder especially fragile against Fruits that act on contact, distance notwithstanding. Each replica wields only the user's own strength and stays fixed to the surface it grew from, flame chews away the surfaces she needs, and she must know a target's shape or place to bud on it. As with every such eater, seawater and Seastone sap her strength through the replicas too.

Robin has leaned on this power since she was small, back when fearful Ohara children treated her as a freak, and by adulthood she had shaped a wrestling and submission style around it. Every named strike follows a set formula: a Spanish number of limbs, then the French word for flower, then, if an attack follows, its English name. Signature moves range from the spine-cracking Seis Fleur: Clutch to the hundred-armed Cien Fleur, up through the post-training Mil Fleur: Gigantesco Mano that raises colossal limbs. Her time with the Revolutionary Army added palm-strike force, producing heavier constructs such as Gigante Fleur and the demon-shaped Demonio Fleur she used to bring down Black Maria.
