Type | Mythical Zoan |
The Tori Tori no Mi, Model: Phoenix is a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit which bestows the power to transform into a phoenix (and phoenix hybrid) at will. It was eaten by...
Etymology[]
- Tori (鳥?) is Japanese for "bird".
- The kanji written for the "phoenix" read fushichō (不死鳥?), meaning "immortal bird", a common Japanese title for the Western phoenix.
Strengths[]
This Devil Fruit grants the power to transform into a large phoenix shrouded in blue flames and a human-phoenix hybrid at will.
As with all Zoans, the ability user's transformation significantly bolsters all their physical abilities. As a bird Zoan, the user is also given the ability to fly at high speed. The phoenix form (both in part and full) comes with a set of sharp talons on the feet that can deliver slashing damage via kicks.
Most significantly, the user can create their "Blue Flames of Resurrection" (復活の青い炎 Fukkatsu no Aoi Honō?, English version: Blue Flame of Revival), also called "Flames of Regeneration" (再生の炎 Saisei no Honō?).

History[]
- Sometime in the past, the fruit was stolen by Rodger Riley and hidden away in Wuxia Kingdom. It is currently unknown how he acquired this fruit.
Trivia[]
- This fruit's power combines traits of both the Western phoenix and the Chinese fènghuáng:
- The fruit's name and regeneration ability (implied to verge on immortality) seem more based on the motif of the Western phoenix; fushichō (不死鳥? lit. "immortal bird") is a Japanese title for the phoenix of classical myth. Per various mythologies such as Greek and Egyptian, the phoenix is said to cyclically regenerate or, most prominently, to resurrect itself after burning itself to ashes, and from those ashes rising anew.
- The phoenix of real myth, per most accounts, envelopes itself in fire only upon death, self-combusting so that a new phoenix may be born from its ashes; this is unlike Marco's phoenix body that is aflame at all times, and his ability that is more based on healing than actual rebirth. Additionally, while Marco's powers are distinguished by the blue color of his fire, most descriptions/depictions of the Western phoenix, both more modern and traditional, give its bright plumage a red and yellow/gold coloration.
