Devil Fruit:

Plush Plush Fruit

Nuigurumi Nuigurumi no Mi

Appearance:

This Devil Fruit looks like a large peach, with the colour being a very light brown. The Fruit is covered by swirls that all end pointing down, with each swirl protruding slightly from the Fruit, similar to a fuzzy teddy bear. The inside of this Fruit is white that has numerous small swirls that clump together in bunches. The stem of this Fruit is split immediately from the base and curls in to form two compact swirls that look like two ears from a teddy bear.

Class:

This is a Paramecia Devil Fruit.

Sub-Category:

This Devil Fruit is a Body Altering Paramecia. This sub-category allows Paramecia users to alter their body on command into multiple different things or just one specific item. This can range from altering their weight to altering their body into different items like turning the user's body into a weapon. This is only limited to the user's body, and as such can not impact anything apart from the user themselves.

Overview:

This Devil Fruit allows the user to shift their body into the form of a teddy bear. The reason this Fruit is called the Plush Plush Fruit is due to a teddy bear being a plush toy, and it sounds better to say Plush Plush Fruit then Teddy Teddy Fruit. Those who eat this Fruit now have the title Plush Human.

Abilities:

The Plush Plush Fruit grants the user with being able to turn into a life-sized teddy bear, which will completely change their physiology to that of a teddy bear until the user turns back to their natural form. This is a complete change, as the user's insides will be turned to stuffing, their skin will turn into cloth and fur, their eyes will become large buttons and their mouth will not contain any teeth, making the user for all intents and purposes look like a life-sized teddy bear. This form is activated by the user willing to transform into a teddy bear, and remains in that form until they wish to return to their natural form, and requires no energy to change or keep the transformation up.

While in this form the user will be able to do anything that a living teddy bear would be able to do, which involves several things that are as follow. The first is that the user is able to absorb and better receive blunt attacks without being hurt or damaged. The second is that the user will be able to sew their body while in their teddy bear form, allowing them to stitch together cuts and wounds to heal themselves or to reattach limbs or body parts that have been cut off. The third and final ability is that everything that was inside the user's body is now just stuffing, which the user can move around the stuffing in their body to enhance limbs or physical attacks, or to bend their body in previously impossible ways due to a lack of any bones or ligaments.

Strengths:

This Fruit has several strengths that the user can take advantage of, many of which involve the user's body and how it interacts with the environment around them. The first strength of this Fruit is how the user's teddy bear form can withstand blunt force in attacks or due to a situation they have found themselves in. This immunity to blunt force trauma is mainly due to how the users body is filled with stuffing, and due to the fact that stuffing does not break or bruise, and neither does the cloth/fur that replaces their skin, their body will be able to receive any form of blunt physical attacks without hurting or breaking the user, with very few exceptions. This means that while the user is transformed into a teddy bear they can fall over large distances without breaking anything when they land, as their body will just hit the ground and bounce a little before the user gets back up without damage, but maybe a bit dirtier. The user will also be able to fight against those who are strictly close-combat types that use blunt instruments or their fists, as the users body, like a teddy bear, will be able to absorb the hits by folding in or moving in unnatural ways, such as bending or contorting their teddy bear form into what is usually impossible for most species as the user can ignore their joints, like knees, elbows, hell even their entire skeletal system, to avoid being caught in any grapples while also being able to take any attack they could dish out due to having no hard internal structure to damage.

The second strength is that the user has a unique form of regeneration or instant healing by sewing together any cuts or open wounds while in their teddy bear form. This is very advantageous for the user as they will be able to heal themselves quite easily due to this, but it also points out how the user will be susceptible to slashing and cutting attacks that will be a lot more damaging for the user, especially if they start to lose the stuffing inside of them. A unique property of this Fruit is that the user can create or build new limbs to replace anything that they have lost while fighting or have damaged while living life. This is done by having the separate parts of a life-sized teddy bear or just the raw materials which they then attach to themselves while transformed, leading the user to regain a lost limb or part when they become human again. An example is if the user loses an arm while fighting and are unable to retrieve it before they leave, as now the user is missing an entire limb, which they then go and grab a spare life-sized teddy bear arm which they sew onto themselves, allowing the user to heal their incomplete body. When the user transforms back they will have their arm back again with no difference to their previous one, with it only really showing when the user transforms into a teddy bear as their arm will look a bit like a patchwork creation or slightly different to the rest of their body.

The final strength of the Plush Plush Fruit is that the user is able to shift their internal stuffing around their body in order to increase their physical attributes in certain areas. This means that the user has the ability to manipulate their internal structure in order to make certain areas or parts of their body more efficient. An example of this would be if the user shifts some stuffing into their arm, making it swell slightly and gives the user an increase in strength for that arm in case they need the extra stopping power in a fight or just if they need a boost while lifting heavy objects. The user will also be able to hide objects within themselves, as the user can put any item that is smaller than themselves into their body and mould their stuffing around it, making the object be kept in the user's body, without negatively or positively affecting the user when they return to their natural form. This storage will not make anything resist to blunt damage, as anything inside the user can be shattered or broken while the user is hit by an attack, and anything inside a certain limb will remain with that body part where it is stored if it is lost or separated, meaning that the user can use this to store objects in the short term but should not store anything of value in case they break or are damaged while in a fight.

Techniques:

Body Shift: Teddy Bear: The user is able to turn into a life-sized teddy bear, which will completely change their physiology to that of a teddy bear until the user turns back to their natural form. This is a complete change, as the user's insides will be turned to stuffing, their skin will turn into cloth and fur, their eyes will become large buttons and their mouth will not contain any teeth, making the user a life-sized teddy bear. This form is activated by the user willing to transform into a teddy bear, and remains in that form until they wish to return to their natural form, and requires no energy to change or keep the transformation up. This is an E-Rank Transformation Technique as it is the bare bones of this Devil Fruit.

Shifting Stuffing: The user shifts their internal stuffing around their body in order to increase their physical attributes in certain areas. This means that the user has the ability to manipulate their internal structure in order to make certain areas or parts of their body more efficient, and can work with anything that is internal. An example of this would be if the user shifts some stuffing into their arm, making it swell slightly and gives the user an increase in strength for that arm in case they need the extra stopping power in a fight or just if they need a boost while lifting heavy objects. Another one is to shift the stuffing into their brain, allowing them to think and plan more effectively and quickly. This is a B-Rank Enhancement Technique that generally allows the user to enhance whatever part of their body that is holding the most stuffing but will not work if the stuffing is wet as that will lock it in place until it is dry.

Stitches and Sewing: The user is able to perform a unique form of regeneration or instant healing on themselves by sewing together any cuts or open wounds while in their teddy bear form. This is done by the user literally stitching close a cut or limb back together, as that will automatically heal the user completely. The user will also be able to create or build new limbs to replace anything that they have lost while fighting or have damaged while living life. This is done by having the separate parts of a life-sized teddy bear or just the raw materials which they then attach to themselves while transformed, leading the user to regain a lost limb or part when they become human again. When the user transforms back after healing themselves they will have healed themselves with no difference to their previous state, with it only really showing when the user transforms into a teddy bear as their form will look a bit like a patchwork creation. This is an A-Rank Healing Technique that will only work for the user but can repair any damage the user has sustain instantly.

The Plush Cannibal: This is an Awakened ability that allows the user the ability to "eat" other plush toys to gain the powers or traits of the represented creature. This can be used on any plush toy, whether it is a representation of an inanimate object, the most powerful creatures that have ever existed or even toys that represent a job or idea, any plush toy the user eats they will gain any traits, talent and knowledge that is linked with that plush toy for thirty minutes, after which anything they have gained from the toy will disappear. When the user eats a toy they must be in their teddy bear form, after which their form will change completely or only partially to what the plush toy that they ate looked like, an example being if the user ate a plush cat their teddy bear form would shift completely to look like what the plush cat did, or it would shift both forms together like it would for a Zoan users hybrid form, except the user will still look like some sort of plush toy for the duration. This is an Awakened S-Rank Assimilation Technique that can only be used three times per day and the user cannot eat more than one plush toy at a time.

Weakness:

There are two main weaknesses for this Devil Fruit that does not involve the usual Devil Fruit weaknesses, which is fire and water, which while water is already big weakness it also affects the user in an additional way. The user is weak to fire for obvious reasons, as the user will be flammable while they are in their teddy bear form, leading to the user being at risk of being completely burned up if they leave a fire on themselves unchecked. The second and more deliberating weakness is if the user is soaked in a liquid, as the user will be slowed down due to their stuffing soaking up the liquid making them be just generally slower in every aspect. When I say every aspect, I mean every aspect as it will affect their reaction time, their movements, their thoughts, even their bones and muscles as their insides are completely soaked due to anything internal being stuffing, and as such will all have the "waterlogged" effect on anything internal, causing muscles and bones to fold or sag due to their waterlogged body. By using this Devil Fruit the user will gain no negative effects or problems as a result.

The user will also be more vulnerable to slashing and cutting attacks while in their teddy bear form, as like a normal teddy bear the user's body will be unable to heal itself unless the user stitches their wound close, or another term is by "repairing" their body like one would any other stuffed animal, the user is then instantly healed. The user will be in extreme danger as well if they lose too much stuffing, much like anyone who loses too much blood. This is due to the user's internals being made of stuffing, so loosing too much of this precious material will result in the user's health deteriorating until they eventually die.

This then leads to the last weakness of all Devil Fruit users, their inability to swim and the draining effect of Seastone. This will affect the user as while they are in their normal form and come into contact with one of these substances they will feel exhausted and are unable to access their ability. However if the user is transformed and comes into contact with these substances the user will be trapped in their current form and unable to do anything until they are removed from the substance, with the user being in the ocean as the more problematic option as they will be completely soaked which the waterlogged effects will last until they have dried out.

Prerequisite Knowledge:

There are some prerequisites that the user will want before eating this Devil Fruit, as the user needs to know how to stitch or sew cloth, which will allow the user to repair themselves. The user will also want to learn how to build teddy bears from scratch and how to repair damaged plush toys, as the user will benefit from this knowledge by being able to heal themselves and not rely on others to help them. This Fruit would best work for someone who either has a background repairing clothes or as a toymaker, as they would best be able to take care of any damage their body receives.

Species:

There are several species that this Fruit would not work with, which basically involve any large species, such as Giants as they have large bodies that would require them having a large amount of cloth and stuffing if they wish to repair their bodies from a fight, which would be incredibly hard to find in the world as no-one would create a teddy bear the size of a giant, and therefore any giant would struggle to find the materials they needed to repair their body while transformed, leading them to an early death. There are several species that this Devil Fruit would work with, which are basically anything smaller than a normal human, like dwarves, as the user would be small and would be able to find the materials they need to heal themselves in abundance, as well as being the size of a normal teddy bear allowing them to blend into or hide in places that usually contain toys or children. The only species that may allow the user negate certain death if left in the ocean is if a Fishman ate it, as while they may now be unable to move or swim underwater, the Fishman user can still breath underwater, and therefore avoid drowning while they wait for someone to help them.

Awakening:

The Awakening for the Plush Plush Fruit only has one application, only one new ability as the user gets no boost in their abilities that is passive, no upgrade in their control or anything else. The one Awakened ability the user gains is that the user can "eat" other plush toys to gain the powers or traits of the represented creature. This can be used on any plush toy, whether it is a representation of an inanimate object, the most powerful creatures that have ever existed or even toys that represent a job or idea, any plush toy the user eats they will gain any traits, talent and knowledge that is linked with that plush toy for thirty minutes, after which anything they have gained from the toy will disappear. Examples of this are if the user eats a plush dragon, they will gain the ability of flight through grown wings and will be able to spit fire. If the user eats a plush scientist the user will gain any and all knowledge of the represented scientist like anyone else who has studied years to get to that point in their life, giving the user the knowledge and application for thirty minutes before it fades away. When the user eats a toy they must be in their teddy bear form, after which their form will change completely or only partially to what the plush toy that they ate looked like, an example being if the user ate a plush cat their teddy bear form would shift completely to look like what the plush cat did, or it would shift both forms together like it would for a Zoan users hybrid form, except the user will still look like some sort of plush toy for the duration. This Awakened ability can only be used three times per day and the user cannot eat more than one plush toy at a time, and will also work best by those who can make their own plush toys as it is basically meaning the user can tailor specific toys to face certain battles as the user could create anything that they can imagine. This Fruit is Awakened when the user goes through a traumatic experience that leads them to spend most of their time in their teddy bear form, after a while they will look for comfort and when they get through their grief with someone else they will understand their Devil Fruit's final ability. This Awakening will not change the user or have any negative effects, only that the user has a slight yearning to consume plush toys that are in the vicinity, which can easily be ignored.

Comments/Information:

So, just to be clear on the name, the Japanese translation was really long for anything that resembled a stuffed toy, and as such, I decided to give up and put the translation for Plush due to it being one of the shorter options. I think that any user of this Devil Fruit would benefit by having a toy building workstation, as it would mostly be used as a storage area for any material the user may need to repair themselves and a place to do it, like their own personalised medical bay that only works for themselves. This Fruit is really cool and would be one of my favourites that I would definitely eat if I was given the option. I would not say this Fruit is overpowered, but the Awakening is especially strong, even compared to others as the user can basically become whatever they can make for a thirty minute period, which could be anything, as I'm pretty sure there plush toys of nearly anything, from phoenixes to planes, robots, hell, there's probably plush toys of gods and concepts like immortality, it's like saying that if the user creates the plush toy correctly they will be the ultament powerhouse that is impossible to beat for thirty minutes!

Credits:

This Devil Fruit was made by me and was requested by Lockthorn, who created most of the aspects and abilities this Fruit has, including the Awakening which most usually struggles with creating. I hope you like the Devil Fruit as I certainly did, as I find that the user could have a lot of fun with it. For your support, your quote is "Toys are what everyone enjoys, till they are bent, broken and eventually left behind."

A/N: Hello people, I hope everyone is having a nice day, and if you're not then I hope it becomes one. Always remember, I'm happy for people to leave a review with a request for a Devil Fruit, so if you have any leave a name, what abilities it has, anything you think of just put it in and I'll eventually get to it.
