Avalo Pizarro of the Blackbeard Pirates ate this Paramecia fruit, which fuses him with an island's terrain and lets him bend that land at will. As an Island Human, he can turn a whole landmass into a weapon.
Drawing its name directly from shima, Japanese for island, this Paramecia lets its eater blend into the surroundings of any island and mold them however they please. Whoever holds it becomes an Island Human, a fighter whose might rises and falls with the ground they stand on. Avalo Pizarro of Blackbeard's crew carries the fruit and uses it to make himself one with the pirate stronghold of Hachinosu.
On making contact with natural rock or built structures such as wooden flooring, the user merges with that environment and then commands it freely. Across a large island the scale grows terrifying, and because most of the world's surface is made of islands, the potential reach is vast. Even cannon fire from a Marine battleship cannot wound or slow the user once they have fused with a big enough mass. They can bring landmarks to life to speak, emote, or sprout limbs that seize and crush, and they feel anyone meddling with the terrain, which turns the power into a surveillance net. The glaring flaw is that the island stands in for the user's body, so serious damage to the merged land rebounds onto their true form. Enemies with enormous strength or potent Armament Haki abuse this by striking the manipulated ground. Control past an island's coastline, such as underwater, has yet to be shown.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

Pizarro melds with Hachinosu, animating the skull-shaped rock at its center to speak with the island's inhabitants. Through an itching sensation he picks up on dungeon breakouts and can raise a warning quickly. In battle he thrusts gigantic arms up from the ground and the buildings on it, reaching out to crush ships at sea, and he carries his crew's vessels straight to their base for convenience. When SWORD and Garp arrived to rescue Koby, he called the fruit a new power, a sign he acquired it not long before, most likely through the Blackbeard Pirates' fruit hunting.
The Shima Shima no Mi is a Paramecia Devil Fruit that lets its user fuse with an island's terrain and reshape it at will. Avalo Pizarro of the Blackbeard Pirates ate it, becoming an Island Human.
Pizarro merges with the pirate stronghold Hachinosu, animating its central skull-shaped rock to speak and raising giant arms from the ground and its buildings to crush ships at sea.
Since the fused island stands in for the user's own body, serious damage to that terrain rebounds onto Pizarro himself, letting enemies with great strength or potent Armament Haki hurt him by striking the ground.
Yes, Pizarro feels an itching sensation whenever the terrain is tampered with, such as during a dungeon breakout, turning the fused island into a surveillance network.
