Nami

**Nami** (ナミ, *Nami*), also known as, **Nami the Navigator** (航海士のナミ, *Kōkaishi no Nami*) and "**Cat Burglar**" **Nami** (〝泥棒猫〟ナミ, *Dorobō Neko Nami*), is a fictional character and protagonist from the *One Piece* series. She is a pirate and the crew's navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates who plans their ship's course throughout the series. She was the third member of the crew and the second to join, doing so during the *Orange Town Arc*. She was formerly a member of the Arlong Pirates and initially joined the Straw Hats in order to rob them for her real crew, but joined the Straw Hats for real after her past and true intentions are revealed and they rebelled against Arlong.

She first meets Monkey D. Luffy during his first confrontation against Buggy. To keep the map she stole from Buggy, Nami tries to double-cross both men but is ultimately swayed by Luffy's personality. Accompanying his travels for a time, she briefly betrays the crew and piffles the Merry Go during the fight for Baratie. Once Luffy and company track her down and learn about her past with Arlong, Luffy accepts her as his comrade. When he liberates her home from Arlong's control, Nami gladly becomes a permanent member of their crew.

Originally an orphaned child, Nami and her adoptive sister Nojiko were raised by Bell-mère. Bell-mère acted as the girls' foster mother and grew a tangerine orchard to support them; she constantly struggled to make ends meet for them. After a young Nami had a bratty spat with Belle-mère over their poor upbringing, Arlong arrived on the island. He extorted the residents to pay a costly fee for their survival. Encouraging her daughters to live with pride, Bell-mère used all of her funds to spare her children rather than pay for her own safety. She is consequently killed by Arlong shortly after.

Regretting her torn conciliation with Bell-mère in her final moments, Nami formed a pact with Arlong to buy her home's freedom from him. Her life as an indentured thief began, but Nami hoped her perseverance would one day free her to chase her real childhood dream: to become a master navigator and compile a detailed world map. She is able to live her dream in earnest the moment she joins the Straw Hats. To forever discard her ties to Arlong, Nami altered his tattoo on her arm to honor her close role models from childhood. She has a bounty of 66,000,000 berries.

"*If you think I'm just another cute girl, you're dead wrong!*"

### Biography

Thief, navigator, surveyor - Nami can do it all! The crew's navigator, guiding their voyage with her knowledge of the seas and understanding of the weather. Luffy's crew are mostly goofs, so she keeps them in line.

Her dream is to sail the world and make her own map from everything she sees. She has a keen eye for money.

In the two years after the Battle of Navyford she studied the weather on the Weatheria Sky Islands, honing both her navigation and combat abilities.

### Appearance

Nami is a slim young woman of average height, with orange hair, brown eyes, and, like most other women in the series, has larger, rounder, shinier breasts, and often bounces and/or jiggles at the slightest movement or are excited, accompanied with a rather humorous "jiggle" or "bounce" sound effect. Many people consider her to be very attractive or even beautiful. She has a black/blue tattoo on her left shoulder, which represents *mikan*, and pinwheels (a homage to Bell-mère, Nojiko, and Genzo, respectively), where she used to have a tattoo for being a member of Arlong's crew.

Her overall physique body appearance matured suddenly (though this is, most likely, a simple change in style of artwork). Her fashion frequently does changes as does her hair style. Many of her shirts feature four-letter words, such as "MODE", "GOLD", or "EVIL", similar to a shirt that Bell-mère once wore that had "MACE" on it. On her left wrist, she wears the Grand Compass, which she needs in order to be the navigator of the ship, and a gold bracelet, given to her by her sister, Nojiko. After the *Arlong Park Arc*, Nami frequently changes into a variety of clothes in the series for each arc, and usually pairs her tops with skirts that have two rings on the sides. Her trademark shoes are orange high-heeled gladiator sandals. Nami wears some form of high heels in every arc, and while they do make her taller, they do not seem to affect the way she walks or her speed. Though she tends to style her hair neatly, occasionally, a hair on top of her head may form into a messy cowlick.

She wears a strap around her thigh with three slots in it which she keeps each pole of her bo staff and later the Weather Forcer in.

#### Pre-Timeskip

Before the *Syrup Village Arc*, Nami wore her trademark orange mini-skirt with two white rings on each side filled in with orange or brown in their centers and shirts with short sleeves that were long enough to hide her tattoo on her left shoulder that showed that she was a member of the Arlong Pirates. She also had short hair with a particularly curled strand over the left side of her face.

During the *Romance Dawn Arc* to the *Syrup Village Arc*, Nami's initial trademark look consisted of a white and blue striped shirt, her trademark orange mini-skirt and brown high-heeled boots.

##### Outfits

During the *Baratie Arc*, she wore a pink shirt with the letters "W" and a lowercase "B" in the center in a circle in white. The shirt has white liners and two lines along the sleeves. She also wore her yellow mini-skirt, and brown high-heeled boots.

During the *Arlong Park Arc*, Nami wore a green camisole with dark green flower shapes, tight black pants with two yellow rings on the sides, and light orange high-heeled sandals. Nami temporarily put on a glove to hide the fact she had stabbed her hand when pretending to murder Usopp, but quit wearing it once the truth was exposed. She also wore Luffy's straw hat for a while before it was later returned to him. After the arc, she wore a plain white shirt with a blue mini-skirt with two white rings on the sides. For the first time, she wore sleeveless clothing that exposed her Arlong Pirates tattoo, but later, in a fit of uncontrollable rage, Nami later stabbed her tattoo relentlessly in an attempt to destroy it, until Luffy stopped her by force. She eventually asked Dr. Nako to remove it, but the doctor couldn't erase it entirely, leaving a visible scar; the scar had been caused from both Nami repeatedly wounding herself in the arm and the indelible nature of the tattoo. Nami chose to cover it up by getting a new tattoo which was a cross between a tangerine and a pinwheel, in honor of both Bell-mère and Genzo. Nojiko also gave her a gold bracelet as a keepsake before she departed from her home, which Nami began to wear regularly on her left wrist ever since.

During the *Roguetown Arc*, she wore a plain navy blue, short-sleeved shirt, a dark blue mini-skirt with white rings on the sides, and navy blue high-heeled sandals.

During the *Warship Island Arc* to the *Reverse Mountain Arc*, she wore a sleeveless baby blue shirt with a light heart in the center with a crisscross design, a dark blue mini-skirt, and her regular light brown high-heeled sandals. She also received a Grand Compass from Crocus and began to wear it regularly on her left wrist, the same one with her gold bracelet.

During the *Whiskey Peak Arc*, she wore a black shirt with the word "MODE" printed in the center in pink with the base in a pink mesh-like design, her regular yellow skirt and her high-heeled sandals.

During the *Little Garden Arc*, she wore a simple, long-sleeved shirt with blue sleeves, her yellow skirt, and her high-heeled sandals. After escaping Mr. 3's Giant Candle Service Set, her shirt was burnt and revealed a black, lacy brassiere underneath.

During the *Drum Island Arc*, she wore several outfits. In the beginning, Nami wore a pale blue, short-sleeved cotton sweater, her yellow shirt and high-heeled sandals. While Luffy and Sanji carried her to be treated by Dr. Kureha (she caught a fever in the previous arc), Nami wore a checkered, hooded parka with the colors white, orange and bright yellow (which Luffy later donned). She wore pale blue pajamas while recovering at Dr. Kureha's home, and a light purple blanket with light brown fur lining it when she ventured out of her room. In the end, Nami wore a long, maroon coat with fur on the hood, collar and hem, and maroon high-heeled winter boots.

During the *Alabasta Arc*, she wore white overalls to protect her skin while in the desert, she retired these clothes during her fight with Paula to reveal a dancer like outfit (which Sanji had bought her earlier in the arc) after Paula damaged them. This outfit consisted of a blue and purple halter top with a pink shroud and a long white skirt with the top part blue, Nami later tore the skirt up the side to make it easier for her to run. Finally, Nami wore a long sleeved white shirt with a brown skirt to match all of these with her normal high heels.

During the *Jaya Arc* Nami wore a blue and white striped tank top with her usual skirt and high-heels.

During the first part of the *Skypiea Arc*, while exploring Angel Beach and Upper Yard, she wore a bikini that was designed in a cloud pattern colored in blue, light blue and white. She paired her top with maroon trousers, and went barefoot. After returning from Upper Yard, she threw on a light yellow short-sleeved shirt over her bikini and put on her orange high-heeled sandals. Sanji notably showed dismay when Nami put on the shirt. She also wore glasses for a small period of time, and upon doing so, tied her hair back in pigtails to keep it out of her eyes, leaving it tied up for the remainder of her return trip to the Upper Yard. Nami eventually changed back out of her shirt when she had to dive into water, and stayed in her bikini; Sanji was pleased to see Nami had removed it. She finally changed into a gray, zippered camisole with the word "EVIL" imprinted on it in big blue letters, blue cutoff jeans, and a dark gray pair of sandals.

During the *Davy Back Fight Arc* she wore a black tank top revealing her stomach with the word "GOLD" on it, she also wore white jeans with two rings on the side, a bracelet, and her regular high heels.

During the *Water 7 Arc*, she sported two outfits. The first one was a dark blue, short-sleeved shirt with a light blue tie that had three rows of black dots decorated diagonally at the end. She complemented her top with a white pleated skirt with golden rings on the sides and dark blue high heel gladiator sandals. After Luffy's fight with Usopp, Nami changed into a violet camisole with the number "3" imprinted on it in white, a white pleated mini-skirt, and her default high-heeled sandals.

During the *Enies Lobby Arc*, she wore black high-heeled gladiator sandals, a brown cleavage-revealing blouse that exposes her abdomen with cream-colored liners and a pale blue, pleated mini-skirt. Initially, she also had on a blue denim jacket, but this was later caught and pierced by Kumadori's staff. This caused her to be pinned down, making Nami strip off the jacket and abandon it so she could run away.

In the *Post-Enies Lobby Arc*, she wore a yellow mini-dress with a hood and her default orange high-heeled sandals.

During the *Thriller Bark Arc*, she sported many outfits. One of them was a pink, long-sleeved sweater with a white collar, a pleated brown mini-skirt, and brown high-heeled boots. She later wore a strapless, long wedding gown and white high-heeled pumps. She tied her hair into a short ponytail. She seemed to have abandoned the sandals for high-heeled boots as of Chapter 435 but she started using sandals again by the end of the arc.

For the *Sabaody Archipelago Arc*, Nami wore an orange shirt with an orange floral pattern, white short shorts, and her high-heeled sandals. Nami's clothes consisted of a pink shirt revealing her stomach, jean shorts, and high heels for the Straw Hat's Separation Serial.

#### Post-Timeskip

From the *Return to Sabaody Arc* through the *Merman Island Arc*, Nami's hair has grown rather long, reaching down to her lower back. Her breasts have also grown larger and rounder, like Robin's, but apart from this her appearance has not changed much, save for the fact that both her body curves and hourglass figure have become more pronounced. Oddly, her face is now drawn to look younger: with her eyes bigger (with the irises now showing), droopier, and placed lower on her face; though this may be from the art style evolving. She also has grown slightly taller. Her outfit after the timeskip consists of a revealing green and white bikini halter top, tight low-rider jeans (that expose a bit of her hips and rear), orange high-heeled sandals, and a pair of pearl-like earrings. Ever since arriving to the New World, Nami sports a new belt with a "Berry" symbol on it where she can also keep the pieces of her Sorcery Weather Forcer on the right side and puts the belt around her waist when she is fighting seriously against an opponent.

##### Outfits

Before leaving Merman Island. she changed into a Criminal brand red halter top and tied her hair back in two ponytails behind her with blue bands, as well as removed her belt. The Minister of the Left also gave her a New World Grand Compass to replace her old Grand Compass, which had become unreliable due to the more unpredictable nature of magnetic fields coming from islands in the New World, which she began to wear henceforth. As the crew left the island Nami decided to unwind, undressed, and took a bath, but upon being interrupted during her bath due to the ship getting caught in a White Strom, she rushed out onto the deck only wearing a light blue hooded zippered sweatshirt over her body to make herself decent for the time being, as well as her new Grand Compass, gold bracelet, pearl earrings. She also put on slip-on brown sandals; in the anime, she was only shown wearing them very briefly and ended up barefooted, losing her sandals when the Sunny passed through the White Strom.

At the start of the *Punk Hazard Arc*, when they arrived in the New World, Nami changed into a red and yellow Criminal brand bikini top with the same pair of jeans, belt, and high-heeled sandals. She also tied her hair back again, and temporarily wore a pink raincoat while in stormy waters. When she reached the cold side of Punk Hazard, Sanji gave her his jacket to stay warm. She was later given a long black double-breasted coat and a set of gloves by Kin'emon using of his unnamed Devil Fruit power, but when Sanji was using her body after Trafalgar Law swapped their minds with his Op-Op Fruit, he took them off to rescue Kin'emon's displaced torso from underwater, and they changed back into rocks. He had the samurai create a new set of winter attire, a tan coat with black fur and gloves, which Nami noticed was different and beat him up over once they were put back in their own bodies, thinking he took her clothes off for perveted reasons. Inside Caesar Clown's lab, she shed the coat and gloves in the warmer conditions, causing them to revert back to rocks.

After returning to the Sunny Thousand, she changed into real and more personalised stylish winter clothing and also replaced the clothes which were not suited for the cold, putting on a high-collared black coat with three sets of gold buttons held together by straps, brown gloves, a set of black leggings instead of jeans, and in place of her sandals, a set of calf-high dark brown boots with white fur insulating the boots at the calves. Once the crew had sailed out of Punk Hazard into more pleasant conditions, she wore a pink sleeveless shirt with the word "HEAT" on it in red letters with a picture of candy below it, teal and white striped shorts, and her high-heeled sandals.

During the *Dressrosa Arc*, Nami's first outfit consists of a tank top and short shorts. Later, while playing a shogun scene on the Sunny, she wears a bikini top, short shorts, and very high heels. After the crew had split up, she changed into a frilled halterneck and a pleated frilled skirt with round studs around the waistline and a small decorative bow in front. She wore her hair back in a ponytail with a scrunchie, and kept her pearl earrings and high-heeled sandals.

While on Zou, Nami wore a fancy purple dress covered in fancy pearls, which is a national treasure of Zou. She still wears her high-heeled sandals and her hair is loose. When leaving Zou she wore a skirt and shirt with the number "73" on it and later a hooded fur coat when the crew was traveling in cold weather.

In the *Whole Cake Island Arc*, Nami bought a corset skirt and blouse, making her look like a "pretzel girl", which Carrot and Brook liked. Before landing on Whole Cake Island, Nami briefly wore a suit of armor with spears on the back (due to fighting ants all night) but changed out of it instantly. Later on, after her original outfit gets destroyed in a fire, she steals new clothes from an unconscious man that was lying nearby; dark overalls with very large, puffy pant legs along with a light colored sash wrapped around her waist. When meeting with the Firetank Pirates, she wore a short, backless red dress. After escaping Whole Cake Island, she wore a long sleeve white dress.

## Personality

### Overview

Along with Nico Robin, Nami is one of the smartest of the Straw Hats and the third smartest character in the East Blue, according to Oda (the first is Benn Beckman of the Red-Haired Pirates, the 2nd being Captain Kuro). She is often seen reading a book in between chapters.

At the beginning of the series, Nami despised all pirates. She viewed them as universally evil after losing someone close to her to pirates, only changing her mind after she met Luffy (although Nami still reminds Luffy that not all pirates are like him). Before her view on pirates changed, she was perfectly fine with giving a captive Luffy up to Buggy, but refused to kill him when asked by Buggy to do so, as she could not bring herself to stoop to their level. Nami is also disbelieving in myths and legends, as she dismissed Devil Fruits as myths until she saw Buggy's Chop-Chop Fruit in action, disbelieved the existence of Skypeia, and was dubious over claims of a connection between Sanji and the "mythical evil army", Germa 66. Ironically, all these legends were proven true to her and she was shocked to see that she was wrong but slowly accepted the unbelievable things in front of her.

Nami can be seen ordering the crew to lift the mast or draw the sails. If she deems an island dangerous she will often try to convince Luffy (usually along with Usopp and Chopper) to not go there but will nonetheless follow Luffy's orders when he demands so. She seems a coward but she has been referred to by multiple people being a "bold woman." Usually she is called that when she stands up for her crew and what she believes to be right. She is aware of the dangers they face every day and has a much better understanding of the world and its more dangerous individuals (e.g. the Seven Warlords of the Sea) than most of her crew does, though lacks Robin's knowledge on some of its other powerful figures (e.g. the Navy Admirals) and organizations (e.g. the Four Emperors). She can be devilish and cunning at times, and if she feels like it will even give her fights to Luffy, Zolo or Sanji. She is the only one among the crew to be visibly concerned and upset whenever their bounties go up, something the others usually react to with indifference or even joy.

Nami has been deeply affected by her adoptive mother's death and Arlong's enslavement and imprisonment of her. She remembers vividly of the abuse she suffered such as one of Arlong's crewmates refusing to feed her as well as the pain and exhaustion on the streets from stealing money in attempt to buy back the village from Arlong. Upon failing to do so, Nami was utterly distraught and when Genzo and rest of the villages went to die for her, Nami took the knife she was holding and madly stabbed her shoulder before Luffy stopped her. Her experiences left Nami with many painful memories, that she has since then successfully buried but Nami still retained a fear and distrust of the mermen race as a whole which was only abated after going to Merman Island, where she claimed she solely held a grudge against Arlong.

After the two year timeskip, she does not over-react, scold, or hit the crew as often for their rash actions anymore, like when she decides to take part in activities such as demanding money when the crew holds Ryugu Kingdom "hostage". In fact she now appears quite calm in the most daunting of situations, most notably when Fake Nami held a gun to her head, implying she has become fairly confident in her abilities. It seems this confidence is paradoxical however, as Nami herself states she isn't weak but she is a "scaredy-cat". True to her word she and Usopp became extremely confident they could take down Baby 5 and Buffalo, once the threat of their retaliation was no longer a factor. Nami is still prone to panic in the face of clear and imminent danger (shown during the descent to Merman Island and Sanji's declaration that he would counterattack the Big Mom ship), and her love of money causes her to resort to her old antics of hitting the male crew members. She still has an extremely high tolerance of alcohol during celebrations.

As shown in Jaya, Nami appears to be terrified of bugs and spiders. She screamed and panicked when Usopp pointed out a tarantula crawling up her back and remained scared for the rest of the hunt for the South Bird as more insects emerged. This phobia was shown again in an anime filler scene in the *Whole Cake Island Arc* where the Sanji Retrieval Team battled against the giant ants. While the rest of the team fought the creatures, Nami elected to just run away from them, saying she could not stand it.

From time to time, Nami enjoys casual and leisurely activities, and the most common of these is reclining in a deck chair, often to sunbathe, read, or relax under the shade of a parasol umbrella. During her moments of leisure in her chair, she likes being barefoot, and will often ditch her shoes to lounge more contentedly in her bare feet, to the extent that there have been times where she doesn't even have shoes with her while she relaxes in her chair. However, Nami can get even more comfortable by changing into swimwear, and sometimes sits in her chair after taking a swim in the Thousand Sunny's pool. In fact, her first wanted poster picture was taken while she reclined in a deck chair at a pool party in the *Post-Enies Lobby Arc*. While she is in her deck chair, she may be accompanied by Robin or presented a refreshing snack or drink by Sanji, but she doesn't take kindly to the rest of the crew's rambunctious antics on the ship, which tend to disturb her as she relaxes.

She at first held a lot of tension with herself and the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates before she officially joined. After the *Arlong Park Arc*, Nami finally began to loosen up and started wearing more stylish and revealing clothing instead of the simple and modest clothes and boots that she used as a burglar. She began to favor open-toed shoes, as sandals were the norm in her homeland, the Conomi Islands, and started using sleeveless shirts, since she no longer had to hide her Arlong Pirates tattoo and now had a new one that she could display on her arm with pride. After the timeskip, she began to wear riminal brand clothing as well due to it being a popular and particularly stylish brand created by Pappug, one of her friends. However, her clothing has sometimes gained unwanted attention, as Sanji has shown delight at seeing her in more provocative outfits, and throughout the *Water 7 Saga*, Pauly consistently scolded Nami in a prudish manner, going as far as calling her a harlot. Nami also liked the beautiful wedding dress that was put on her in Thriller Bark, despite being opposed to the idea of marriage, especially with her "would-be" groom Absalom.

She will also not hesitate to strip down or outright discard pieces of an outfit if it is hindering her in times of danger, such as ripping the hem of her already ruined dancer's dress to flee from Paula, pulling off her shirt to dive into a Milky Road, and wriggling out of her denim jacket after Kumadori had pinned her down by her denim jacket and was about to strike her with a deadly blow. Nami has shown dismay at clothes she is particularly fond of being ruined, angrily striking Luffy when she saw her jacket torn up when she lent it to him in the *Drum Island Arc*. Likewise, she will even tear apart someone else's clothes if she has to, not hesitating to shred an unconscious Kalifa's clothes after their battle to find a potential key to Robin's Sea-Prism Stone cuffs in the *Enies Lobby Arc*. In *Whole Cake Island Arc*, when her clothes were burned off by Jimbei, Nami wasted no time stripping a nearby prisoner of his clothes. Nami is also willing to politely borrow other peoples clothes, such as borrowing Sanji's jacket to wear at the end of the *Little Garden Arc* after Usopp's plan to save her, Vivi, and Zolo had burned her shirt, leaving her with a black bra on, until she could get a replacement shirt after returning to the Merry Go.

Nami is easily surprised and shocked by the more outlandish things in the series, yelling at the crew when they don't seem as concerned as her. Nami even expressed shock at a talking, clothed crocodile, despite traveling around with Chopper and Carrot from the Mink Tribe as Luffy pointed out and said she should be used to things by now.

### Love For Money

Nami is greedy and will do anything for money and treasure, accepting any challenge that comes along. Her love of money stems from her childhood, where she lived a poor life and was often upset at having little wealth despite the love of her adopted mother. While she will send in Luffy and the rest of the crew to meet the demand, the one thing she will not do is sell out a comrade, no matter what the sum. She has several times put her own crewmates in debt over trivial matters (like Luffy for tearing her coat and Zolo for borrowing 100,000 berries only not to spend it and return it later). Her usual charge for repaying the debt is 300% interest, and she will often bring up these debts in order to get someone to do something for her. She takes control of the amount of money the crew spends, ever aware of the crew's spending habits (such as Luffy's desire to spend all they have on meat) and tries her hardest to avoid it getting spent all at once.

To this end, she is in complete horror whenever the rest of the crew wastes money or passes up an opportunity to get it. Her desire for money is such that she attempted to seduce an eight years old boy once discovering his wealthy heritage (although it was in a brief joke-like manner)..}} She is loyal to her money, but no matter how much she denies it, her loyalty to her friends comes first as seen when she decided to give up her agreed 1,000,000,000 berry deal with Igaram for protecting Vivi for the latter's sake after Baroque Works was beaten (although she was upset about it and complained later), as well as willingly giving treasure to Lola and preparing to spend 200,000,000 berry worth of treasure (which they stole from Thriller Bark) to rescue Camie from slavery.

### Bravery

She has been known to stand her ground against anyone hurting her comrades, abandoning her otherwise normal routine of trying to stay out of harm's way. In the *Alabasta Saga*, Nami's fight against Baroque Works was mainly because of her friendship with Vivi. In the *Water 7* and *Enies Lobby Arcs*, Nami's main reason for fighting was based on getting Robin back. In the *Thriller Bark Arc*, once again Nami refused to run away, and stood her ground when Absalom attacked Lola, then again when Kuma confronted the crew. She even volunteers to enter the territory of a Emperor in order to retrieve Sanji from her clutches. The best example came from her survival of Eneru's I.Q. Tests, which left her as the only fighter standing besides Enel himself. She agreed to board his ship and go to his promised land out of fear after seeing all the strong fighters lose the game, but later after hearing his plans that would forsake the sky island, she soon turns on him.

### Compassion

In return for her lesser sympathetic personality traits, she is also one of the more compassionate crew members who is fast to show sympathy when hearing sad things about other people. She is easily one of the Straw Hat's most emotional members, showing much understanding of and insight into feelings. However, it is to be noted that while she suffered under the guise of being part of Arlong's crew, her sister said that she has never seen Nami cry since Bellmere's death. The first time she did was when she thought her village was going to be annihilated and she asks Luffy for help.

Nami is also capable of great forgiveness, even back when she blamed Luffy for the destruction of Chouchou's owner's shop, she soon cooled her anger when saw that Luffy had salvaged food for the dog. She is even willing to forgive even people who have hurt her for many years, including Hatchan and people who invertedly caused her suffering like Jimbei, even when the other members of the crew maintain their grudges because of the pain they caused to Nami herself. Nami also claimed she wouldn't forgive Sanji for all worry and pain he put her through in Whole Cake Island however she did expressed happiness when he saved her from falling while escaping the Tea Party.

This compassion often makes her good at comforting her friends (though she has also done the opposite to a comic effect), as shown during the crew's discussion about whether Usopp should return or not, which Nami insisted he return. Due to her deep compassion and empathy, Nami is willing to help people in dire needs even when there is absolutely no monetary benefits in doing so. As shown in Punk Hazard, Nami is strongly determined to rescue the gigantified children after learning from Chopper that they were abducted and tricked into becoming test subjects in Caesar's experiments, declaring that she will not leave until she has assured their safety. When she and the Curly Hat Pirates first arrived at Zou, she joined her crewmates in treating the injuries of Wanda and the Mink Tribe after they were brutally devastated by the Beast Pirates. She even cried when she learnt that the Mink Tribe actually endangered their lives in protecting Raizo.

During the *Punk Hazard Arc*, Nami is shown to have a soft side for children. When she and the others are fleeing through the Biscuits Room, the giant children plead with her to save them. After which she stops, and declares that she cannot turn her back on crying children asking to be saved. She treats Momonosuke like royalty, and is seemingly oblivious to his perverted nature, calling him Momo-chan and letting him sleep in her room. Interestingly enough, Oda has stated that Nami would be a child-care worker if she weren't already a pirate. It is because of her care for children that Nami downright refused to forgive Caesar Clown, despite his efforts in aiding her and her allies at Big Mam's Tea Party. After he got his heart back, Nami still claimed that he was trash and reminded him of the children he experimented on back at Punk Hazard.

### Fashion Sense

Nami also has an obsession with fashion, as she is never seen wearing the same clothes. This was not present in the early chapters and started after the Syrup Village Arc. When Nami goes shopping, she sometimes goes to exquisite boutiques and tries on many things, just to leave stating that she is searching for something more casual.

### Vanity

Nami can be very vain and full of herself at times saying she is "too cute" and becomes melodramatic during the Davy Back Fight, saying that the Foxy Pirates would choose her for sure and became annoyed when Usopp said that would not be the case. Nami can be defensive over her lack of modesty at times, like when Pauly was furious that she changed clothes right in front of everybody, Nami shrugged him off by saying there was only one cart to change in. Also much later in Punk Hazard, Kin'emon thought that she had been stripped since she was wearing only a bikini, but Nami claimed that it was "fashion" and mused that Kin'emon actually liked it, which he admitted lewdly leading to him getting stomp by an irate Sanji.

She does not seem to have much modesty, as she sometimes wears rather skimpy clothing and allows people to take photos of her wearing very little, such as swimsuits (as long as they pay her). She often uses her looks and sex appeal for her own benefit, flirting with men and acting helpless. Nami will even allow men to see her completely naked. However, she charges 100,000 berries to each person who did see her naked, even if it was an accident. Nami will even take advantage of Sanji's devotion to her. A running joke is Nami claiming she is a refined and fashionable "lady" while others claim she is rather bold and vulgar due to her temper and preference for revealing fashion.

Despite her flaunting of her body, Nami does legitimately detest being treated as an object by men, expressing disgust when Sirkees tried to buy her and was horrified at Absalom's harassment and stalking in Thriller Bark. At one point she lashed out the invisible man declaring she didn't keep herself fit for voyers like him and wouldn't stand being treated like a piece of meat.

## Abilities and Powers

Being the assigned navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates, Nami is responsible for evaluating the direction that the ship goes as they sail further into the sea. Nami also tends to act as the crew's *de facto* treasurer, managing the crew's money and allocating spending money whenever they arrive at a new location.

Besides Sanji, the crew's trained chef, Nami is also the only crew member known to possess even basic cooking knowledge (likely learned from Bell-mere). Prior to Sanji joining the crew, Nami agreed to cook for a fee, and in his absence, she reprises this role. Initially, she went back to charging money to perform this service, but after Luffy disastrously chooses to cook for the crew in order to avoid paying her most of his allowance, she has agreed to cook free of charge, she was able to cook a delicious fish by following one of Sanji's recipes left behind in the Thousand Sunny.

### Physical Abilities

Prior to the *Alabasta Arc*, Nami, like Usopp, was not as proficient in combat as the fighters or ability holders of her crew. Ultimately, she remained a supporting member of the crew rather than a main fighter, as she did not have superhuman strength, nor formal training in any fighting style, although she was later shown, in the *Water 7 Arc*, to have impressive agility and surprising leg strength, being able to jump the wide distances between rooftops in Water 7 . While on Weatheria, Nami showed she was capable of running with a bag much larger than herself in one hand, while carrying Haredas in the other.

Although not as skilled at fighting as a few of her crew-mates, Nami is still capable of holding her own against weaker foes. When she was grabbed by a Navy officer Nami brought him down with one savage punch and defeated another Navy with barrage of kicks. When she was fighting Kalifa Nami withstood a **Finger Pistol** from the assassin a technique that brought down Pauly a strong foreman, Nami also survived breathing in the toxins from the Daft Green plant, which is so poisonous it can kill quickly if inhaled repeatedly. Nami survived long minutes before getting the cure, which shows that she, like the rest of the Straw Hats, has a high level of endurance.

Nami was also shown to possess a skill with a bo staff which she would often use for self-defense before acquiring the Weather Forcer. However, because she was usually outmatched by the monstrous foes that they met at sea, she typically relied on her crew-mates to fight in her place. Nami also appears to have great skill with ropes, being able to tie up and capture Luffy from behind.

After the two year timeskip Nami is shown to have increased exponentially in both her usage of the Weather Forcer, as well as her own physical abilities, now capable of handling tougher opponents on her own. An example of this is seen when she detected being ambushed from behind by a merman, and further managed to deflect a blow from his blade, despite the strength of normal mermen reputed to be 10 times that of a regular human. In *Film Z* Nami was able to keep up with the pace of Neo Navy Vice Admiral Ain's dagger attacks using her Sorcery Clima-tact, and even attempt to counter by splitting the Clima-tact and firing off a blast of wind. Most notably Nami's ability increase was shown in *Chapter 811* when she reacted to a weakened Wanda's attack before Sanji and Brook were able to save Nami from having to defend herself. After stopping her in her tracks and overpowering her, Nami then managed to pin her to the ground. Nami also managed to defeat Brûlée, a powerful daughter of Big Mom who had taken out the highly skilled Carrot and Chopper beforehand.

Nami was also shown to possess superhuman legs while on Punk Hazard, as Sanji managed to defeat a group of Caesar Clown's subordinates with ease while inside Nami's body, utilizing the same kick-based fighting style he usually employs. Still stuck in her body, Sanji also demonstrated the ability to use "**Blue Walk**", an ability developed from mimicking the superhuman Moonwalk of CP-9, without damaging the muscles in her legs and even under heavy conditions like the freezing depths of a chilling water deep enough to sustain sharks.

Sanji could also utilize Observation Haki in her body with no signs of difficulty though it's still unknown if Nami can use Haki herself. Nami has also shown that she has fairly decent agility as she was able to dodge Wanda's attack by somersaulting. She still has limitations however, as when Sanji was trying to outrun Smiley's gas he noted her body could not keep up with the pace of Zolo, Brook, and Kin'emon for long, until he groped her breasts and got a speed boost from over-excitement. Nami was also shown to have enough endurance to assist Luffy in an 11 hour fight with Charlotte Cracker, one of the top members of the Big Mam pirates.

She is shown to have a strong will as she was able to withstand a burst of Big Mom's Conqueror's Haki.

### Navigation and Cartography Expertise

Nami is a highly skilled navigator and a talented cartographer. Arlong considered her skills on par with the mermen "superiority" since they were superior to any merman's. When Luffy destroyed her room at Arlong Park both bathymetric and geographic maps were seen, indicating that Nami has a wide variety of cartographic skills.

She is capable of formulating advanced equations in mere minutes to predict a precise course of action, although she usually needs to write the equations down on a physical medium when formulating them. She has a supernatural ability to sense changes in the weather, "with her body" according to Vivi, and can even predict the emergence of supposedly unpredictable cyclones in the Grand Line, undeterred even by a high fever.

This attribute proved useful during Nami's one-on-one altercation with Eneru, where she managed to deflect several of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit user's lightning-based attacks using only "**Thunder Balls**" from her first Clima-Tact. It could be assumed that after the timeskip her navigation skills have greatly improved due to her study of the New World climate with the help of Haredas, as even Caribou immediately recognized and praised her skills as a navigator during their descent to Merman Island.

### Skilled Thief and Pickpocket

Apart from her navigational skills, Nami has also proven herself to be an excellent thief and pickpocket. She is able to take small items, such as keys, without her victims noticing, a skill she honed from a young age. Her most notable thieving feat was shown just before she left her village. At the harbor, she stole numerous wallets from the villagers saying goodbye to her while she was running past them, and among the villagers and the Straw Hats, plus Jonny and Yosaku, no one noticed until she revealed what she had done.

She now uses this skill to steal from other pirates, and occasionally government employees, more often than not sneaking aboard their ship or base and taking all their valuables while they are distracted by some fight. Her skill at thievery has even been recognized by the World Government and has earned her the epithet "**Cat Burglar**".

## Financial Expertise

Nami has strong memory when it comes to finances since she is mainly handling the Straw Hats' financials due to her fondness of money. While shopping, Nami tends to negotiate as seen during the *Return to Sabaody Arc* where Nami demanded a discount over the clothes that she attempted to buy at a fashion shop, much to the shopkeeper's chagrin. As seen at Water 7, she can be skillful in a financial negotiation as she skillfully negotiated with the bank staff in giving 300,000,000 berries for Skypiea's treasure instead of the initial offer of 100,000,000 berries. She also demanded 1,000,000,000 berries from Vivi for their co-operating on Misty Peak, but later decided to give up on it for the sake of friendship between her and Vivi after the Alabasta Civil War ended.

## Negotiation

Nami is a very convincing person, so much so that she has shown herself to be quite the negotiator in her own right. She has shown to be able to negotiate on behalf of most of the Straw Hats, although most of the negotiations are charged with financials or anything else that would be for her own benefits. Although she mostly handles the financial negotiations, she also able to negotiate in other aspects especially when the Straw Hats do not have much to bargain with, such as making some relationship with others and also keeping the Straw Hats cool during negotiations. As a result of this, one of the biggest benefits is that Nami is usualy able to manipulate people and obtain more information on her own than what the other members of the crew would be able to gain and depending on the situation, she is able to achieve great things with this skill.

Examples of this include her manipulating Luffy and the crew into trusting her so she could steal the Merry Go, negotiating with Vivi at Misty Peak on matters involving her protection from Baroque Works agents, her negotiation with the bank staff at Water 7, tricking and befriending Lola's zombie, easily manipulating the residents of Weatheria into forgiving her earlier escape attempts and thefts, and even convincing them to give her a house and other various things so she could stay on the island to train for two years. In addition to the latter, she also managed to convince Haredas to teach her more about the Weather Balls and the changing climates and weather patterns of the New World during her two years of training, despite the fact that she had previously taken him hostage in order to get off Weatheria. More recently, she used her Vivre Card to force the homies in the Seducing Woods to help and protect herself and Luffy against Cracker. She latter talked King Baum into helping the Sanji Retrieval Team escape from the Big Mam Pirates after the wedding. She also used Zeus' gluttony for her lightning clouds as a bargaining chip to make Zeus become her servant and later took advantage of his attribute as a cloud to force him to discharge massive amounts of lightning at Big Mam herself twice.

### Art of Weather

the "**Art of Weather**" (天候術, *Tenkō-jutsu*) is Nami's personal fighting style focuses mainly on using the Weather Forcer to manipulate the weather of her surroundings. Which when combined with her extensive knowledge of oceanography and weather systems, can be used for devastating results.

#### Weather Forcer

She first gained the ability to manipulate the weather during the Alabasta Arc, when Usopp gave her the Weather Forcer. The flaw with his invention however was that it was primarily for party tricks. Regardless of this conflict, due to her expertise she was able to combine several of its functions in order to pull off dangerous and useful techniques, like creating a mirage of herself, (**Mirage Tempo**) in order to distract her opponent, and a powerful lightning cloud (**Thunderbolt Tempo**), which was used on Ms. New Year's Eve who thought she was a magician.

##### Techniques

###### Basics

* **Heat Ball** (ヒートボール, *Hīto Bōru*): Produced from the **"Heat Pole"** either when air is blown into the end of it or it is shaken, the Heat Ball is a red bubble of heated air that drifts along in the air. It heats up the temperature of the area surrounding it. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve.

* **Cool Ball** (クールボール, *Kūru Bōru*): Produced from the **"Cool Pole"** when air is blown into the end of it, the Cool Ball is a blue bubble of cold air that drifts along in the air. It cools down the temperature of the area surrounding it. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve.

* **Thunder Ball** (サンダーボール, *Sandā Bōru*): Produced from the **"Electric Pole"** when air is blown into the end of it, the Thunder Ball is a yellow bubble of electrified air that drifts along in the air. It electrifies the air of the area surrounding it. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve.

###### Party Uses

* **Fine Tempo** (ファイン テンポ, *Fain Tenpo*): Nami attaches the three Clima-Tact pieces together to form a triangle and then presses a button. Doves magically exit the triangle and flap around. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve.

* **Cloudy Tempo** (クラウディ テンポ, *Kuraudi Tenpo*): Nami attaches the three Clima-Tact pieces so that it resembles a rifle. Flowers sprout from the tip when the button is pushed. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve. An upgraded form of this move can be used by the Perfect Weather Forcer.

* **Thunder Tempo** (サンダー テンポ, *Sandā Tenpo*): The three staff pieces are joined together in a Y-shape. Nami then grabs the two "Y'poles" and presses the button. A small boxing glove on a spring bursts out of the single end. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve.

* **Rain Tempo** (レイン テンポ, *Rein Tenpo*): By pressing certain buttons on each piece, all three of the pieces spout water into the air. Nami then holds a piece in each hand and balances the third on her head. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve. An upgraded form of this move can be used by the Perfect Weather Forcer.
	+ **Sprinkler** (スプリンクラー, *Supurinkurā*): While the pieces are spouting water during **Rain Tempo**, Nami spins around to dampen the air. She basically resembles a garden sprinkler when she does this; hence the name. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve

###### Battle Uses

* **Cyclone Tempo** (サイクロン テンポ, *Saikuron Tenpo*): Nami puts the "Heat Pole" and "Cool Pole" together like an X on the top of the "Electric Pole". She swings it like a bat, and the X detaches from the "Electric Pole" spinning towards her opponent. When the X hits, the hot and cold airs collide and create a massive wind that blows her opponent away. The X will return to Nami like a boomerang. Ironically, Usopp added this function as another party use with no idea of its offensive power. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve. An upgraded form of this move can be used by the Perfect Weather Forcer.

* **Mirage Tempo** (ミラージュ テンポ, *Mirāju Tenpo*): Nami uses the "Cool Ball" in a dry and hot environment to change the air density and create a mirage of herself. The extreme difference in temperature causes major light refraction, allowing Nami to disappear and create an illusionary copy of herself. An upgraded form of this move can be used by the Perfect Weather Forcer. This was first used against Miss Doublefinger.

* **Thunderbolt Tempo** (サンダーボルト テンポ, *Sandāboruto Tenpo*): Nami uses "Cool Ball" to make the air cooler while she uses "Heat Ball" to suck up the moisture. The heated air then rises and collides with the cold air. The air then condenses and creates a cloud. Nami continues to enlarge the cloud by producing more "Heat Balls" and "Cool Balls." Finally, she uses a "Thunder Ball" to electrify the cloud. Soon after, a powerful lightning bolt strikes her opponent. An upgraded form of this move can be used by the Perfect Weather Forcer. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve.

* **Tornado Tempo** (トルネード テンポ, *Torunēdo Tenpo*): The only function that Usopp apparently installed in the Weather Forcer to be used in battle and not devised by Nami. He explains that this attack can only be used once and should be used only when the situation calls for it. Nami first combines the three pieces together into a T. In a bright flash from each end, two clockwork doves burst out and ensnare her opponent. The T then starts to spin rapidly until it finally shoots the captured enemy with extreme centrifugal force. After that, due to the doves being entangled with the enemy, the technique becomes unusable and the function cannot be used again unless they are reinstalled. This was first used against Ms. New Year's Eve.

* **Fog Tempo** (フォッグ テンポ, *Foggu Tenpo*): Using "Cool Ball" against fire, Nami is able to create a massive fog barrier due to the water vapor in the air increasing in density from the rapidly heating cold air. The fog is used to blind the opponent so that Nami can land an attack on them. This was first seen to blind Hotori.

* **Thunderstorm Tempo** (サンダーストーム テンポ, *Sandāsutōmu Tenpo*): An anime only technique wherein Nami creates a Thunderstorm with her Clima-Tact. First she creates a cloud by using "Cool Ball" and "Heat Ball". Instead of using a thunderball she adjusts her Weather Forcer into a triangle shape and throw it in the cloud. Lightning will then strike down to attack the enemy, then after a while rain will fall from the clouds. This was first seen being used against Foxy and Porche, to neutralize the pyrotechnical capabilities of the melee machines they were using against Luffy.

#### Perfect Weather Forcer

After the *Skypeia Arc*, Usopp improved the Weather Forcer with Dials, creating the Perfect Weather Forcer. This improvement gave her much greater power of the weather, allowing her to easily pull off stronger and newer versions of the tricks she could do with the Weather Forcer, like creating insubstantial duplicates of herself using mist (**Mirage Tempo: Fata Morgana**). This weapon was also powerful enough to allow her to wipe out hordes of Navy men (**Thunderbolt Tempo**) successively and defeat CP9's Kalifa (**Thunder Lance Tempo**). There was still a flaw in its use however, as Nami was unable to properly control the lightning and her allies would sometimes sustain collateral damage.

##### Techniques

* **Heat Ball** (ヒートボール, *Hīto Bōru*): Produced from the **"Heat Pole"**, its productivity and power is greatly strengthened from its previous version, though just how much more powerful it is was never revealed prior to its next upgrade. This was first used against a large group of Navy soldiers, in preparation for Thunderbolt Tempo.

* **Cool Ball** (クールボール, *Kūru Bōru*): Produced from the **"Cool Pole"**, its productivity and power is greatly strengthened from its previous version. It can be used to cool the temperature in the air, a single one cooling the air enough to result in ideal conditions for the creation of mirages. This was first used against a large group of Marine soldiers, in preparation for Thunderbolt Tempo.

* **Thunder Ball** (サンダーボール, *Sandā Bōru*): Produced from the **"Electric Pole"**, its productivity and power is greatly strengthened from its previous version; touching a single Thunder Ball will result in a powerful and painful electrocution. This was first used against a large group of Navy soldiers, to trigger Thunderbolt Tempo, but its full potency was first seen during Nami's fight with Kalifa, in conjunction with her Mirage Tempo: Fata Morgana technique.

* **Thunderbolt Tempo** (サンダーボルト テンポ, *Sandāboruto Tenpo*): An upgraded form of the move Nami could use with the Weather Forcer. With the Perfect Weather Forcer, the lightning created is now larger and strikes multiple times. It is a very powerful attack that can eliminate a large range of foes. Unfortunately due to its increased range and power, Nami has little control over it at first. This means that both friend and foe alike would be electrocuted. According to Usopp, the Perfect Weather Forcer was not designed by him to use such a technique. This was first used against a large group of Navy soldiers.

* **Thunder Charge** (サンダーチャージ, *Sandā Chāji*): Nami creates a "Thunder Ball" on the ball end of a piece. With the "Thunder Ball" on the tip, she can then perform "Swing Arm". This was first used against Kalifa.

* **Swing Arm** (スイングアーム, *Suingu Āmu*): After using Thunder Charge, Nami twirls the piece on its connecting socket with the rest of staff. After several spins, she swings the electrified piece at the enemy for a powerful electric attack. This was first seen being used against Kalifa. An anemometer is a device for measuring wind speed.

* **Cool Charge** (クールチャージ, *Kūru Chāji*): Nami creates a "Cool Ball" on the ball end of a piece. With the "Cool Ball" on the tip, she can then perform an upgraded version of "Mirage Tempo". This was first used against Kalifa.

* **Mirage Tempo** (ミラージュ テンポ, *Mirāju Tenpo*): An upgraded version of the "Mirage Tempo" used in the original Weather Forcer. Nami is still able to create mirages to distract opponents; however, with the Perfect Weather Forcer, she is able to do more. Using the "Cool Ball" located on the staff, created by "Cool Charge", she is able to cloak herself in blanket of air to make herself invisible. This first seen being used against Kalifa.

* **Mirage Tempo: Fattah Morgana** (ミラージュ テンポ ファタ・モルガナ, *Mirāju Tenpo: Fata Morugana*; literally meaning "Mirage Tempo: Illusion Fairy"): An advanced version of the Mirage Tempo technique that creates multiple images of Nami using reflections and refractions within the air. The images that are created consist of a long and tall skinny version, a short kid version, a fat version, a big, muscular version, and a normal version of Nami. Only one of these images is real; however, it is not necessarily the normal looking one. Each of these images is capable of moving in unison with the real Nami due to their reflective nature. Any attack Nami produces while surrounded by these images will also be replicated, creating a barrage of projectiles. Although only 20% of the attacks are real, so this tactic confuses even fast opponents into getting hit. This first seen being used against Kalifa. "Fata Morgana" is a type of mirage; it can also refer to Morgan le Fay, a witch (something Nami is often called) in Arthurian legend.

* **Cyclone Tempo** (サイクロン テンポ, *Saikuron Tenpo*): An upgraded form of the original "Cyclone Tempo" that can be used with the original Weather Forcer. Nami bends one end of the entire staff and connects the piece to the adjacent piece. She then throws the oblong two-piece shaped combination at an opponent. The upgraded form appears to be more powerful. This was first seen being properly used against Kalifa.

* **Cloudy Tempo** (クラウディ テンポ, *Kuraudei Tenpo*): A completely revamped version of "Cloudy Tempo". With this, Nami creates a small cloud capable of producing rain. This was first seen being used along with the Perfect Weather Forcer's Rain Tempo by Nami to cure herself of Kalifa's Devil Fruit powers.

* **Rain Tempo** (レイン テンポ, *Rein Tenpo*): A completely revamped version of "Rain Tempo". With this, Nami is able to create rain from an already existing cloud by creating Cool Balls and sending them into the cloud. This was first seen being used along with the Perfect Weather Forcer's Cloudy Tempo by Nami to cure herself of Kalifa's Devil Fruit powers.

* **Dark Cloud Tempo** (ダーククラウド テンポ, *Dāku Kuraudo Tenpo*): Nami forms a small, condensed, electrically-charged cloud. This was first used against Kalifa.

* **Thunder Lance Tempo** (サンダーランス テンポ, *Sandā Ransu Tenpo*): One of Nami's most powerful moves. Using a cloud previously formed with Dark Cloud Tempo, Nami creates a lightning bolt going directly from the cloud to her Perfect Weather Forcer. Any opponent, should they be in the path of the lightning bolt, would be pierced by the bolt like a lance and given extreme electric damage to their body. This was first seen being used to defeat Kalifa. It had enough power to defeat the CP9 member with one blow, and later seriously damage a Pacifista due to the lightning passing through its insides.

* **Cyclone Burst** (サイクロン･バースト, *Saikuron Bāsuto*): An anime-only technique, Nami attaches her Cool Ball and Heat Ball ends to the Wind Knot. It starts with Nami spinning the Cool Ball over her head and charging the Heat Ball below her. Then she throws her Cool Ball end upwards and at the same time, releases all of the Wind Knot. This creates a powerful cyclone that can disperse an extremely large storm cloud.

#### Sorcery Weather Forcer

After the timeskip, her abilities are greatly enhanced, being able to easily destroy a bar and a submarine (and harm the occupants of both) with lightning blasts that can be compared to an attack by Eneru. At the stand-off between Neptune's soldiers with Usopp and Brook, she wielded the upgraded version of the Weather Forcer with the disappearance of the balls, which she now calls the Sorcery Weather Forcer. When the Straw Hats arrived at Gyoncorde Plaza, Nami's "**Mirage Tempo**" was shown to have improved to the point of making herself appear completely invisible, and she was also able to shoot a powerful gust of wind she named **Gust Sword** to easily dispatch a merman.

She can now use and create weather in more creative ways, like launching an egg which hatches to release a large thundercloud that she can then take control of in order to strike down her opponent(s), which she calls "**Thunder Breed Tempo**", and creating an orb at the end of one of the three segments of her Weather Forcer which possesses enough heat to melt snow and harm a snow woman like Monet (**Heat Egg**). This new Weather Forcer has also been proven to not only be useful for battle situations, but regular daily uses as well, such as taking showers (**Shower Tempo**) and making paths for travel with sea clouds (**Milky Road**). The latter is an achievement of its own as it was stated that sea clouds couldn't be created in the blue sea.

It is unknown how Nami utilizes the abilities of her new Weather Forcer as she rarely spins or shakes her weapon to achieve the desired effects, usually achieving her goal after some verbal queue which names the attack. Most notably, Nami seems to have much more freedom in her control of the phenomena she produces as she was able to direct lightning like a projectile in order to hone in on Baby 5 and Buffalo in the sky, as well as move a thundercloud over the guys who were attempting to peep on her while she bathed, and electrocute them, almost cognitively.

Further upgraded due to Usopp's Pop Greens and Franky's genius, the Sorcery Weather Forcer is now the "culmination of all of Weatheria's weather science, and has been described by Usopp as being "this century's greatest" something. The Sorcery Weather Forcer can now grow or decrease in length when different pressure is applied, and is easier to twirl and use. It also seems to leave patterns in the air when it is used, overall giving it the feel of a magic wand of sorts. Ironically enough, the only Weatherian device that Usopp failed to implement into the upgraded Sorcery Weather Forcer was a "magic wand" that he didn't quite understand.

##### Techniques

###### Battle Uses

* **Mirage Tempo** (ミラージュ テンポ, *Mirāju Tenpo*): Nami has been shown using an upgraded variation of this technique, allowing her to become invisible for an unknown amount of time. When she swings the Weather Forcer again, the mirage is released.

* **Gust Sword** (ガスト ソード, *Gasuto Sōdo*): Nami points one of the three segments of the Weather Forcer at an enemy. A small bubble forms at the tip facing the opponent which then bursts and shoots a gust of pressurized air at an enemy at high speed. It resembles a thin whirlwind. This was first used against a member of the New Fishman Pirates who tried to attack her.

* **Black Ball: Storm Cloud Rod** (ブラックボール 雷雲＝ロッド, *Burakku Bōru: Raiun Roddo*; literally meaning "Black Ball: Thundercloud Rod"): Nami makes a long chain of dark clouds come out of her Weather Forcer. She then swings the cloud chain around her, electrocuting anyone caught within the full range of it. It was first used against a huge group of New Merman Pirates. It seems to be more of an upgraded version of her **Thunder Lance Tempo** and **Thunder Charge: Swing Arm** used in combination.

* **Thunder Trap** (サンダー・トラップ, *Sandā Torappu*): Nami first creates three dark clouds, in what appears to be a triangular formation. When someone passes through the middle, the clouds electrocute it. It was first seen being used against a small Dragon on Punk Hazard. Nami was seen pretending to be a ninja by casting a *Ninjitsu* technique to create these clouds by shaking both her index fingers, but she mistakenly referred to it as *a samurai impersonation*.

* **Heat Egg** (ヒートエッグ, *Hīto Eggu*): Nami creates a small bubble on the tip of one of the three segments of her Weather Forcer. The bubble produces immense heat which can melt snow easily. It was first used in order to get Monet out of the way by melting her snow. It is possible that this technique is an improved version of the **Heat Ball**.

* **Milky Ball** (ミルキーボール, *Mirukī Bōru*): Nami produces many giant balls made out of Sea Clouds which are able to survive on the Blue Sea. She then gathers up all of the balls and creates a wall with them, to hold back her opponent(s). This technique is similar to **Milky Road** and a technique she used against some New Merman Pirates. It was used in an attempt to stop the raging children on Punk Hazard.

* **Weather Egg** (ウェザーエッグ, *Wezā Eggu*): Nami launches a large egg, which hatches to reveal a particular kind of weather.
	+ **Thunder Breed Tempo** (サンダーブリードテンポ, *Sandā Burīdo Tenpo*): After launching the egg at her opponent, she then commands it to hatch, calling it Lightning-chan, which then releases a large thundercloud, similar to Eneru's Deathpiea ability, albeit on a smaller scale. After creating thunderclouds above her enemy, Nami can then take control of the lightning using her Weather Forcer, concentrating all of the lightning in the cloud into one blast and guiding it towards her opponent(s) to strike them down, making escape nearly impossible. This was first used in order to prevent Baby 5 and Buffalo from escaping with Caesar Clown.
	+ **Snow Clouds** (雪雲, *Yukigumo*; literally meaning "Snow Clouds"): Nami attempted to use this attack against Giolla, but it failed after her Weather Forcer was transformed into art by Giolla's Devil Fruit ability. While the effects of the attack have not been seen in the manga, in *Pirate Warriors 3* it produces a snow cloud that releases a tornado-like snowstorm that freezes surrounding enemies.
	+ **Rain Tempo** (レイン テンポ, *Rein Tenpo*): After the egg hatches and releases dark clouds, Nami calls down rain, affecting the temperature and humidity and creating fog and mist. This was first used in order to escape from the Big Mom Pirates.
* **Thunderbolt Tempo** (サンダーボルト テンポ, *Sandāboruto Tenpo*): An anime only move, in which Nami twirls and swings her clima tact to form large thundercloud. then a powerful bolt of lightning strikes her opponent. It seems to require no additional preparation unlike her previous Thunderbolt Tempos. This was first used to strike down a group of Sutchies.

###### Other Uses

* **Shower Tempo** (シャワー＝テンポ, *Shawā Tenpo*): Nami makes a small rain cloud above her head. She uses the rain from the cloud as a way of showering.

* **Milky Road** (ミルキーロード, *Mirukī Rōdo*): Nami creates a path made out of Sea Clouds, which are able to survive on the Blue Sea unlike normal Sea Clouds. It was first used to create a path to Punk Hazard over the sea of flames.

#### Fourth Weather Forcer

After being further upgraded due to Usopp's Pop Greens and Franky's genius, Nami's new Weather Forcer is now the "culmination of all of Weatheria's weather science, and has been described by Usopp as being "this century's greatest" something. The Weather Forcer can now grow or decrease in length when different pressure is applied, and is easier to twirl and use. It also seems to leave patterns in the air when it is used, overall giving it the feel of a magic wand of sorts. Ironically enough, the only Weatherian device that Usopp failed to implement into the upgraded Weather Forcer was a "magic wand" that he didn't quite understand.

##### Techniques

###### Battle Uses

* **Mirage Tempo** (ミラージュ テンポ, *Mirāju Tenpo*): Nami has been shown using an upgraded variation of this technique, allowing her to become invisible for an unknown amount of time. This was first used to elude Usopp when he asked her to pay for the materials fee.
	+ **Mirage Tempo: Fattah Morgana** (ミラージュ テンポ ファタ・モルガナ, *Mirāju Tenpo: Fata Morugana*; literally meaning "Mirage Tempo: Illusion Fairy"): Nami has been shown using an upgraded variation of this technique, allowing her to form multiple illusions of herself and disappear completely. This was first used in the anime to elude the Navy.

* **Thunder Trap** (サンダー・トラップ, *Sandā Torappu*): Nami creates four dark clouds after twirling her weapon. The clouds are capable of producing lightning. This was first used when she was testing out the offensive capabilities of the weapon, which inadvertently shocked some members of the Mink Tribe. Visibly impressed, Raizo refers to this as "marvelous ninjutsu".

* **Thunderbolt Tempo** (サンダーボルト テンポ, *Sandāboruto Tenpo*): Nami swings her Clima-Tact downward, and a powerful bolt of lightning strikes her opponent. It seems to require no additional preparation unlike her previous Thunderbolt Tempos. It was first used against Charlotte Brûlée, who was forced to retreat, burned and defeated, into her mirror world.

* **Weather Egg** (ウェザーエッグ, *Wezā Eggu*): Nami launches a large egg, which hatches to reveal a particular kind of weather.
	+ **Rain Spark** (レイン スパーク, *Rein Supāku*): After the egg hatches and releases dark clouds, Nami calls down rain, affecting the temperature and humidity and creating fog and mist. This was first used in order to soften Cracker's Biscuit Soldiers.
	+ **Thunder Breed Tempo** (サンダーブリードテンポ, *Sandā Burīdo Tenpo*): After launching the egg at her opponent, she then commands it to hatch, calling it Lightning-chan, which then releases a large thundercloud, similar to Eneru's Deathpiea technique, albeit on a smaller scale. After creating thunderclouds above her enemy, Nami can then take control of the lightning using her Clima-Tact, concentrating all of the lightning in the cloud into one blast and guiding it towards her opponent(s) to strike them down, This was first used in the anime against Zappa.

* **Black Ball** (ブラックボール, *Burakku Bōru*): Nami is able to generate dark clouds from her Clima-Tact by twirling it around. This was seen to seduce Zeus and stop Big Mom's next attack on the Sanji Retrival Team.
	+ **Thundercloud Rod** (雷雲 ロッド, *Raiun Roddo*): Nami makes a long chain of dark clouds come out of her Clima-Tact. She then swings the cloud chain around her, electrocuting anyone within range of it. It was first used against a group of Big Mom Pirates and accidentally Chopper.

* **Gust Sword** (ガスト ソード, *Gasuto Sōdo*): Nami points her Clima-Tact at an enemy, and a gust of pressurized air shoots her enemy at high speed. This was first used in the anime on Navy.

###### Other Uses

* **Grow Up** (グローアップ, *Gurōappu*): By incorporating the growth abilities of the Pop Green into the new staff, similar to his own Kuro Kabuto, Usopp designed the New Clima-Tact to also change size. Whenever Nami squeezes the handle she can extend the size of the staff, where the new length is determined by the amount of pressure that is applied.

### Other Techniques

Though infrequent, Nami has a couple of other moves that she can use to incapacitate (in more ways than one) her opponents.

* **Happiness Punch** (幸せパンチ, *Shiawase Panchi*): a joke technique that Nami uses to dispatch or seduce any male watching her bathe. She also uses this as a get-rich-quick scheme, as she charges 100,000 berries to anyone who sees her doing this.
* **Impact** (インパクト, *Inpakuto*): Nami uses an Impact Dial to absorb attacks and then send them back at her opponents. This was shown only when she finished off Hotori with Gunfall.
