 Hello and welcome to the ground line review your source for everything one piece and today for the devil fruit encyclopedia we have a very special edition as we are finally going to examine one of the most popular and quite possibly one of the best devil fruits in the series with the Ope Ope Noomi. The Ope Ope Noomi is a Paramecia type fruit that allows its user access to a whole bunch of sheer craziness primarily through the creation of a spherical space known as a room and within said room the user has complete control of the objects and beings caught inside of it. This allegedly makes the user a free modification human and speaking of said user this fruit is wielded in the series by none other than fan favorite Trafalgar Law and it made its first appearance during the Sarpady Archipelago arc. The fruit actually takes its name directly from the English word operation which is a reference to the space the user creates often being compared to a surgical operating room which is also aided by the fact that Trafalgar Law is a doctor but although despite being taken directly from an English word both this and Funimation decided to change the name ever so slightly by knocking off the E sound to simply become the Ope Ope fruit. All right so let's start seriously diving into this by beginning with the concept of a room because this is a necessary precursor to access any of the fruit's deeper benefits. Essentially the user generates a transparent sphere the size of which is at the behest of the wielder. In the series it's quite common to see rooms that only span the diameter of a few meters however it has also been shown that the user can extend this to cover extraordinary spaces spanning entire mountains and that may not even be the full extent of it however the bigger the room becomes the significantly more difficult it is for the user to maintain the space as it requires quite a bit of effort and stamina and also quite notably once a room is generated it is entirely stationary until the user chooses to deactivate it. Now why does all of this matter? Well it's because once this room exists the user of the Ope Ope Nomi is more or less allowed to play God in their tiny pocket dimension which they have created. To illustrate a basic invocation of this power is seen in the amputate technique whereby Law is able to use his sword to cut anyone or anything however as a result of being within the room his victims are completely unharmed despite having any number of body parts separated. In essence the results are kind of like the Barabara Nomi which allows the user to split their body into however many parts they desire except the Ope Ope Nomi flips this on its head by allowing its user to split the bodies of others provided they are within the room. Now however this is really only the beginning because once inside the room the user can also perform an ability known as shambles which allows them to switch the placement of any objects or beings. So say for example you craft a room that has you at one end and a happy little tree on the other you would then be able to invoke shambles to achieve a teleportation style effect where you and the tree instantly spot places but if we take this a step further and use shambles in conjunction with amputate then the user of the Ope Ope Nomi would be able to say slice the head clean off an enemy and replace it with whatever else happens to be in the room at the time which could be uh I don't know but uh what do I see in my room right now um um ah the complete all in one edition of Death Note yeah that'll do. In addition the user of the Ope Ope Nomi has complete control over anything and everything in the room through the use of tact an ability that allows them to levitate whatever they say fit would seemingly no restrictions and to demonstrate that in the series law has shown the ability to levitate an entire marine battleship although it is entirely possible that the larger the object the more strain the user suffers as a result. Now these are still very much the basic applications of the Ope Ope Nomi and a skilled user can take these powers to truly crazy places but I feel like we can't go much further without mentioning that this fruit is actually referred to as the ultimate devil fruit and it's because of its greatest ability known as the perpetual youth surgery or also known as the perennial youth operation or rather simply the immortality operation depending on which translation you subscribe to whatever the case the result is much the same in that the user can perform this operation on another being in order to grant them eternal youth. Now just to address this old eternal youth thing there is quite a bit of confusion amongst the fan base about the exact nature of this ability with many believing that it actually renders someone immortal and do you know it's kind of hard to blame them given that the vis manga translation literally calls it the immortality operation but eternal youth is a much more accurate description what it will do is freeze someone's aging kind of like the side effect of sugar's devil fruit the hobby hobby know me but it will not prevent the user from dying in general say from drowning or being shot in the head or any other mechanism that usually results in death that isn't old age but as a result the Ope Ope Nomi carries a mind-boggling value within the one piece world as individuals are willing to pay as much as five billion berries for it and to put that number into some perspective there are emperors of the sea whose bounties are not even half that price so this is pretty damn serious money however things aren't quite as simple as having someone consume the fruit and then getting them to bestow eternal youth on you as there are two highly restrictive conditions that come along with it the first of which is that this ability can only be accessed by someone with extraordinary knowledge and brilliance which probably implies that it could not be achieved by your run of the mill doctor so finding that candidate is going to be very difficult to begin with and that's before we even get to the second condition which is that to perform the operation the user of the Ope Ope Nomi must sacrifice their own life so yeah good luck for filling those criteria on your quest for eternal youth with that said the user doesn't have to grant someone eternal youth to make fantastic medicinal use of the Ope Ope Nomi and it has been stated in the series that a previous user of the fruit was able to perform numerous miraculous operations and was even able to cure all sorts of disease that no traditional medicinal or surgical procedures were capable of with this in mind it's even a popular idea amongst fans to attribute the Ope Ope Nomi as the solution to chopper's dream in the series to find a cure for all disease and you know what in the hands of a skilled medical practitioner this fruit may just be that however it is highly impractical to say the least to administer its powers to the world at large so i don't think this is quite the solution to chopper's problem but to further examine how a skilled professional can make use of the Ope Ope Nomi let us now turn to Trafalgar Law to call him a fantastic devil fruit user would be an understatement and having trained as a doctor prior to consuming it he really is more or less the ideal candidate for this fruit everything i mentioned before law has found a way to escalate for example in terms of the basic amputate technique law has proved to be even capable of using it to dismiss opponents entirely clad in haki a substance that generally nullifies devil fruit abilities while working on a more micro scale law has also developed a cunning proficiency in removing the hearts of his opponents which once again as the result of the room will not kill them although should the heart be compromised then yes it will result in their death and rather insanely law has even developed a more advanced version of shambles whereby he is seemingly able to spot the souls of various individuals and place them in other bodies although this is visualized through the switching of cartoon style parts regardless this is exceptionally powerful and it was able to cripple the power of half of the straw hat crew simply by placing them in unfamiliar bodies and of course law's medical knowledge comes into full force with techniques such as counter shock in which law releases a strong electrical surge smack bang into the chest of an opponent kind of like a defibrillator as well as his most powerful technique known as the gamma knife in which law crafts a small but deadly blade of energy designed to destroy an opponent's internal organs quite notably this technique is said to be powerful enough to bring down figures such as doflamingo oh well it would have been if not for his own devil fruit which allowed him to perform some emergency repairs via the ever useful substance of string despite that law is quite likely to be a rare case in the series of a devil fruit user who was able to wield their power to its fullest potential now speaking of the whole potential thing speculating on what this fruit could do in its awakened form is a fairly maddening task this fruit is already wildly powerful as it is and one would assume that an awakening may grant further room abilities such as being able to create or destroy matter rather than simply manipulate it or perhaps even a concession to manipulate objects or people outside of the room in limited capacities of course but the thing I keep coming back to is the perpetual youth surgery as the ultimate technique of the fruit I can't help but think that another prerequisite would be to awaken the opi-opinome so perhaps an awakening of the fruit may allow the user to create a permanent room around or even within a certain individual that keeps their body in that sort of perpetually immune state at the cost of the user's life of course whatever the case I feel fairly certain that this is one of the few fruits in the series for which the question of awakening will eventually be answered because this whole eternal youth business has been flagged pretty heavily so we need simply wait for where it will take us some other things to consider when becoming a free modification human to add on to the numerous miscellaneous benefits of the fruit whilst invoking the room the user is also able to perform a scan of everything caught within it essentially giving the user the necessary knowledge to have complete control over absolutely everything within the room as there is no possible way to hide either yourself or any of your precious items from the scan and also up until now I don't think we've quite stressed the negative aspects of this fruit anywhere near enough but it does come with one pretty big issue which is that every use of the fruit's abilities come at the cost of the user's stamina and furthermore a user over exerting themselves can even result in the direct reduction of their lifespan but despite that one unfortunate weakness it's pretty difficult to fault this fruit when used proficiently these abilities should make you practically invincible in combat I say practically because it does depend on the caliber of your opponent but for the most part you're looking pretty fine and while the full potential of the opera oponomi can really only be reached with someone of advanced medical knowledge that doesn't make it at all useless to the average being all the basic techniques like ambientate shambles and levitation would still be available and honestly if that was all the devil fruit had to offer and I'd still think it was pretty amazing but if you are a doctor then this is an absolute must eat there is arguably no better fruit out there for you because even with everything I've mentioned during this video there's still some odd little uses that I have left out and a lot of room for further exploration with your particular expertise but once again if you're not a doctor then just eat it anyway it'll be good fun I promise and with that we are going to commit the opera oponomi to the devil fruit encyclopedia next week we will be moving on to another fantastic fruit held by none other than marine Admiral Kizaru with the pika pika nomi if you enjoyed this video and the content this
