Eaten by: Blueno

The Doa Doa no Mi, also known as the Doa Doa Fruit, is a Paramecia type Devil Fruit that allows the user to create doors through anything they touch. The doors they create can be created from any part of their body, from the palm of their hands to their whole body itself, and usually take the shape and form of the body part creating it. The doors remain as passageways anyone can pass through until closed completely. "Doa" comes from the Japanese pronunciation of "door". In the Viz Manga, it is called the Door-Door Fruit[1]. This Devil Fruit was eaten by Blueno.

[edit] Strengths and Weaknesses

The fruit's first and foremost strength, as demonstrated by Blueno, is that it gives it's user the ability to create a door on almost any solid matter so that they can enter through. This allows them and anyone else passage through the object no matter how thick or strong it is. Though this ability is normally used to gain free passage, the user can also exploit this for other ways, such as trapping an opponent's feet in small doors created beneath their feet. This power can also be used on living persons as well and can thus be used to deter opponents by creating doors on their body in order to immobilize them.

One of the greatest strengths of the fruit's powers however, is that the user can also create doors through the very atmosphere itself. These Air Doors lead into a pocket dimension of sorts that is apparently within the air itself. This dimension not only allows the user and anyone else to travel across vast distances, but also provides a safe haven for them to stay in from which they can either observe and ambush enemies from, or survive through large scale attacks.

The fruit so far doesn't seem to have any specific weaknesses outside the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

[edit] Usage

  • Doa Doa (ドアドア, Door Door): Blueno makes a door on any surface he chooses.
  • Kaiten Doa (回転ドア, Revolving Door): Blueno uses his power to make a door in the face of his enemy. The enemy's face spins around very fast, making them confused and dizzy.
  • Air Doa (空気開扉 (エアドア) Air Door): Blueno makes a door in the atmosphere to an alternate dimension where he can hide and move undetected.

[edit] Trivia

  • In a response to a fan, Oda had stated that if Sanji had eaten the Doa Doa no Mi, it would be like the end of the world. All women would live in fear of being seen naked in the bath.[3]
