 Hello and welcome to the Grand Line review your source for everything one piece and today for the double fruit encyclopedia It's time to dive into the worst generation once again in order to examine the ever-sturdy shiro shiro no me The shiro shiro no me is a paramecia type fruit that allows its user to transform into a living fortress thus making the user some form Of castle human and if that sounds bizarre Well, that's because it is but it's an incredibly cool and unique fruit with a ton of potential and in the series It is wielded by mafia don turned pirate turned family man Capone gang beige and it made its first appearance during the sabotee arc very simple etymology for this bad boy here as shiro Can be read in Japanese as castle and if you're a seasoned anime veteran You'll also probably know that shiro in another reading can mean white as in shiro hege or white beard for example Which is somewhat important because white does play into one particular ability concerning the fruit But for now let's focus on the castle portion and speaking of for the English translation It's a straightforward affair with both viz and funimation electing to call it the castle castle fruit now Let's talk about the whole living fortress business and well The effect is quite literal upon consuming this fruit The user's body will become a glorious stronghold equipped with a wide variety of openings such as draw bridges poor Colossus and even cannon ports And of course within the user a grand castle interior now exists with everything one could dream of including of course its own Banquet Hall the big thing is though the user stays exactly the same size as they were prior to consumption of the fruit meaning that we Need to invoke some shenanigan re in order to make use of this new fortress body in any way and luckily the shiro shiro To me comes with exactly that as if any being or object enters a certain vicinity of the user It shrinks them to a teeny tiny size able to explore and make use of the vast Castley goodness so all of a sudden things have gotten pretty interesting because this fruit allows for manipulation of matter which opens up a Whole new world of possibilities Particularly in the area of storage and transportation and we've seen devil fruits with this type of ability before and we will again such As the army army no me or the new manuma no me however the shiro shiro no me is the first paramesia within the series It has demonstrated the power to craft a space within the user's body for storage So this fruit would be quite revolutionary in the real world allowing its user to have an automatic career as a transport specialist Able to efficiently move incredible quantities of product with something as simple as an economy class plane ticket Although within the one-piece world It's arguably even more useful due to the lack of viable transportation options especially within the grand line I mean could you imagine trying to move say an entire castles worth of food on a ship throughout the new world? It would be a pretty damn risky trip would put that food within the user of the shiro shiro no me And now all we need to do is make sure that that one person reaches their destination safely Basically, it's an incredible logistic convenience Although there is one difference between this fruit and its whole gear counterparts which were previously mentioned and that is that They possess a seemingly infinite level of storage whilst there is a definite limit to the shiro shiro no me Which is the floor space of the castle though interestingly enough that may actually differ depending on the user For example in the series Capone gang beige is rather stout man with a proud horizontal expanse Which may actually mean that his internal castle would be a lot bigger than if say Luffy consume the fruit in which case the shiro shiro no Me would become more ideal for use with larger individuals Which can range from you know carrying a few extra kilos all the way up to simply being a giant Although it is also entirely possible that regardless of the user size They will end up with a castle of the same space through whatever double fruit sorcery is invoked to make this possible in the first place Speaking of the weirdness does not end here as the user also becomes capable of crafting a miniature version of themselves within their castle body Out of well to be honest. I have no idea, but it is some sort of miscellaneous fluid Whatever the case in a very trippy manner This allows the user to walk and talk within their own body while simultaneously still being able to interact with the outside world Which I imagine requires a fair amount of concentration and general mental finesse pull off successfully and for more and that That's quite literally jump into the user of the fruit Capone gang beige Now as a mafia don style leader with an extensive family slash army who enjoy underhanded tactics This fruit is pretty much a perfect match being able to conceal essentially anything within himself Bache is the ultimate vehicle for surprise and ambush style attacks Which also happens to favor his violent and chaotic personality and having instant access to anything within him be it an entire army or Incredible firepower also allows beige to operate at a level far beyond his natural abilities because when compared to much of the worst Generation beige isn't particularly powerful or faster You know anything along those lines, but what he has going for him is his pure intelligence and incredible strategic use of the shura shura No me which makes up for his lack of physical prowess For example should beige become surrounded by an entire squad of Marines Well, he's pretty incapable of dealing with that all on his lonesome However with an entire castle's worth of cannons and soldiers to man them then all of a sudden beige becomes a Glorious battleship and is swiftly able to dispatch large quantities of opponents However, this is not to say that beige is completely incapable of acting on his own because there is one Incredible ability of the shura shura no me that we have yet to examine known as big father As opposed to everything we've spoken about so far This allows beige to grow to the size of his fortress in reality becoming an incredible hulking mass of pure power Ready to wreck quite a few faces and to put the defense of big father into the spotlight for a second It should be said that not only is this fortress immune from all general forms of cannon fire But it was also able to hold off attacks from one of the four Emperors in this case big mom for a short time Which even if it was only briefly is still amazing and should not be underestimated furthermore They have a crafty base has even figured out how to use the shura shura To meet his advantage for simple transport with his castle tank ability whereby he manifests threads around his leg region That allow him to move at high speeds and now for the ever-anticipated speculation of awakenings and with this fruit I have to say that it's entirely possible. We've already seen its results in the big father transformation I say this because from the minuscule amount We know of paramesia awakenings they tend to flip the core abilities of the devil fruit on its head For example going from being able to conjure something from your body to being able to conjure it from your environment So in the case of the shura shura me its most basic abilities have to do with shrinking things for use within your miniature castle So a natural awakening to me would be the power to flip that and expand your body instead However should big father still be a basic ability of the fruit then we may have some crazy things to think about Such as the idea of the user being able to create miniature strongholds and other objects outside of their own body Or perhaps even being able to absorb parts of their environment into their castle dimension Some other miscellaneous things to consider when becoming a castle human one large weakness that exists particularly for those stationed within the user Is the idea of any kind of smoke inhalation as whatever the user breeds in will be spread throughout the stronghold interior Now unfortunately for the fire tank pirates base just happens to be a heavy smoker So this happens frequently however it could be far more troublesome if the user were to encounter a chemical based weapon However the shura shura me also presents some nice potential in that it is capable of making your enemy smaller And it is even possible to trap them within your castle self Which would be a fairly devastating outcome for many rookie or intermediate combatants Particularly because within their castle the user was able to manipulate its environment to craft various weapons and traps But what we have here is an incredibly useful fruit It has a strong degree of utility simply through being granted space and space is such a wonderful thing What you do with it really is up to the creativity and practical nature of the user But there is no doubt in my mind that any person who ate this fruit would benefit from it to some degree As for what that is well, it's up to them But it's not a power that serves a specific purpose Like say the bomb and bomb on me, which you can't really do a whole lot with except destroy stuff So in the end it is a splendid fruit with a ton of potential and highly recommended And with that we are going to commit the shura shura no me to the devil fruit encyclopedia And just a note on the devil fruit encyclopedia going forward There are going to be quite a few fruits that appear during sabotearch that I will not be covering immediately Pretty much all of which belong to members of the worst generation This is because many of them are unnamed and those that are have yet to display their true potential So I feel like covering them in the encyclopedia won't really be doing them justice in any way And I've chosen to wait until we've experienced the true breadth of those devil fruits before I submit them As a result next week, we will be jumping straight into amazon lily in order to examine the devil fruit held by the pirate empress Boa Hancock known as the meromero no me If you enjoyed this video and the content this channel produced in general Then please do consider donating to the grand line review patreon because the support of all of your amazing people Is what continues to make this channel possible And if you'd like to see more videos like this but applied to other anime manga series Then please do check out my second channel new world review for all of your wider needs And if you'd like to join the fun at any time then please do head over to my discord server Where a wide array of shenanigan retakes place on a daily basis and finally Please do comment with your thoughts on the shura shura no me. This has been the ground line review and I'll see you next time Also just a little fun fact here. Capone gang base just happens to casually possess all of the infinity stones And appears to be able to wield them without a gauntlet like the stout boss he is
