Sui Sui no Mi

The Sui Sui no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to swim in the ground or walls, making the user a . It was eaten by Senor Pink.
This fruit's abilities were duplicated in the Seraph S-Shark, via a transfusion of Green Blood.
==Etymology==
*Suisui is the Japanese onomatopeia for any kind of smooth and fluid movement.
* is also one possible reading for the kanji for "water", as well as being half of the Japanese word for , a reference to this ability's typical action in bodies of water.
*In the FUNimation adaptations, it is called the Swim-Swim Fruit.
==Strengths and Weaknesses==
This fruit's main strength is that it allows the user to swim in solid matter such as ground and walls as if they were water, the latter even allowing the user to swim upwards, seemingly defying gravity. It also allows the user to dive into the ground to avoid being injured by the fall. The fruit can also allow the user to move discreetly, as they will be mostly covered by the ground, allowing them to infiltrate places more easily. This allows the user to sneak up behind their opponent while in combat, allowing them to attack the opponent from behind.
It is noteworthy that like most Devil Fruits that can distort solid matter such as the Hira Hira no Mi or the Choki Choki no Mi, the distorted objects retain their physical properties such as weight and solidity in regard to other people than the user. Furthermore, after being swum through, the distorted matter "flows" back into place like a liquid would, leaving no trace of the distortion.
If the user is skilled at using water as a weapon, such as a Fish-Man Jujutsu user, then they can use the liquified ground as a substitute for water.
However, this fruit has limited capabilities. The user will need to physically swim to move, as opposed to instantaneously moving across surfaces like the Ishi Ishi no Mi. As such, the fruit's ability is limited by the user's swimming speed and form. Furthermore, Senor Pink has not been shown to be able to breathe while submerged, so he very likely needs to resurface often to breathe. Lastly, the user is affected by the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses and as such cannot swim in actual bodies of water. 
==Usage==
===Senor Pink===
Senor Pink has been seen using his power to swim in the ground and sneak up on his enemy from behind, and has been stated to use it to infiltrate enemy bases and commit assassinations. It can also be used to allow him to escape, but he claimed that his pride does not allow him to do so. This may or may not be true, as he was protecting an incapacitated soldier behind him at the time. He can also swim upward of a building to gain height for increased momentum for a suplex move. He can also use his ability to pick up speed and add more momentum to his attack.
====Techniques====
*: Senor Pink swims in the ground while picking up speed from a good distance away, before grabbing his opponent and swimming with them, all the while picking up even more speed. He then swims up a building with his opponent until they reach the top, and using the momentum keep going up into the air. At this point, he reposition themselves mid-air into a position to perform a suplex before letting gravity do the work and bring his opponent down with him. Senor Pink himself can survive the fall by diving underground at the point of impact before resurfacing. It was used as a finishing move against Franky, though he managed to survive it. It is called Meow Meow Suplex: Baby Buster in the Viz Manga and FUNimation adaptations.
===S-Shark===
S-Shark utilizes the power to swim through solid surfaces and sneak up on his enemies from below, similar to Senor Pink's usage. However, S-Shark added a twist on how he uses his powers, by taking advantage of the liquified surfaces to apply the Fishman Karate style, and create waves to crush his opponents. S-Shark often uses the power to avoid further attacks after taking damage. This is done by dropping into a surface, before retaking the initiative with a surprise attack.
==History==
Senor Pink ate the Sui Sui no Mi at no older than the age of 30, as he was seen using its powers to swim in the ground then.
Dr. Vegapunk managed to duplicate this power by synthesizing Green Blood with Senor Pink's Lineage Factor and apply it onto the Seraphim S-Shark, who also uses the ability to liquify solid surfaces as a means to apply Fishman Karate.
==Trivia==
*While the Sui Sui no Mi gives to the user the ability to swim through solid surfaces, due to the standard Devil Fruit weakness, the eater of this fruit remains unable to swim in water. This means that the Sui Sui no Mi is the only Devil Fruit shown so far that lets the user maintain (although in particular conditions) the ability to swim.
*According to Oda, Sanji would have this Devil Fruit if he were allowed one.
*The Anime originally depicted the affected ground/walls as the same color as their surroundings, much like the Manga. S-Shark's initial appearance in Episode 1095 made the ground/walls appear no different from ordinary water when affected. This was reverted back to the original depiction in Episode 1101.
