The Fuku Fuku no Mi[3] is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit which allows the user to create clothing and other apparel out of leaves or stones by visualizing them. It was eaten by Kin'emon.[2]

Etymology[]

  • Fuku (?) means "clothing" in Japanese.
  • The English version name Garb is another term for clothing, but can also refer to a specific type of clothing. This is a reference to Kin'emon being able to create any type of clothing through his imagination.[4]

Strengths and Weaknesses[]

As shown by Kin'emon, the fruit has many useful properties. The apparel generated can be used as disguises, which can be used to blend in during espionage work. Apart from serving as disguises, the clothes created by the fruit's power can also be used for other conveniences, such as keeping wearers warm while in a cold environment.[2] This fruit has also been seen to create functioning armour and weapons such as swords.[5]

Kin'emon apparently needs to create clothes from leaves, stones, or other small objects, so if there are none in the immediate vicinity then he may not use the ability. The clothes are also not permanent and revert back to its original objects as soon as they are removed.[2] Furthermore, he must first visualize the appearance of the clothes, so quality of the clothing will depend on the imaginative capabilities of the user.[3] This Devil Fruit appears to be a passive ability and has few combat applications. Besides that, the user suffers from the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Usage[]

By placing a leaf or stone on someone's head, Kin'emon can convert it by saying "Poof" (ドロン, Doron?) into the necessary garb for as long as he can visualize it. The clothes created remain as long as they are worn, but will disappear if removed.[2]

Techniques[]

  • Kin-chan Gofukuten (錦ちゃん呉服店, Kin-chan Gofukuten?, literally meaning "Kin-chan Kimono Shop"): Kin'emon sets up an arching gate with a leaf-imprinted banner at the top. Those who pass through the gate instantly receive a clothing change, without requiring to put an object over their heads beforehand. It was first seen when the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance arrived at Onigashima as a way to provide quick disguises to all the members of the alliance, with Kin'emon placing the transformation spot at the end of a bridge.[6] The name may be a reference to Tsuru's pet name for Kin'emon from their youth. In the VIZ translation and Funimation adaptations, this is called Kin's Clothing Company.

Trivia[]

  • As with the Mato Mato no Mi (which was referred to as the "Mato Mato Curse"), both the Nui Nui no Mi and Toki Toki no Mi (both referred as Nui Nui powers and Toki Toki powers respectively) and both Juku Juku no Mi and Maki Maki no Mi (both referred as Jutsus), this fruit was not actually named in the manga. Kin'emon referred to his "magic" as the Cloth Cloth Technique (フクフクの術, Fuku Fuku no Jutsu?, English Adaptations: Garb Garb Jutsu).[4] He did say that his ability comes from an unusual fruit that he ate a long time ago.[2]
  • This fruit is somewhat similar to the Jake Jake no Mi, as they both relate to items of clothing.
