The Hana Hana no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to replicate and sprout pieces of their body from the surface of any object or living thing. As further allusion to this, pinkish-white petal-like particles form at and then swirl away from where the parts sprout and vanish, as well as around the user itself. It was eaten by Nico Robin.
The power of the fruit was first demonstrated but not clearly seen before Luffy and crew when they first met Robin on the Going Merry. The fruit's actual power was fully revealed during Robin and Pell's confrontation.
•Hana (花?) is the Japanese word for "bloom" and "flower", and reflects the nature of the user's power to sprout their body parts like a blooming flower.
•The fruit keeps its original Japanese name in the 4Kids dub by calling it the Hana-Hana Fruit.
The Hana Hana no Mi is a pink flower shaped fruit with a stem sprouting out of the top, with swirls that go in a curly "S" like-pattern on the petals. Its overall appearance greatly resembles a pink dahlia.
The fruit's major strength, as demonstrated by Nico Robin, is the ability to sprout multiple body parts on almost any surface, including the user's own body, and then manipulate said body parts remotely, as if they were an extension of the user's own original limbs. Since the user is practically the only one who knows where their limbs will sprout out, they almost always have the element of surprise on their side, which, coupled with the fruit's long range and almost instantaneous speed of limb sprouting, turns Robin into a massive threat during combat situations. Enemies may find themselves in an extremely compromising position if they do not possess enough strength or an ability that lets them somehow counter or escape from her myriad of summoned limbs.
As Robin claimed to Pell, speed and strength mean nothing to her as she can render almost any foe into submission with ease, even those with superhuman speed such as Hakuba. Additionally, the fruit's powers are capable of affecting many opponents simultaneously, displaying great offensive capabilities through grappling or stomping techniques. For defense, Robin can conjure traps, shields or barriers to capture or repel incoming dangers with a multitude of her limbs. By sprouting eyes or ears in strategic places, the fruit's powers can also be used for gathering intelligence. The Hana Hana no Mi overall is incredibly versatile and permits multitasking for adventuring, battles or everyday activities.
Before the timeskip, Robin was capable of sprouting up to one hundred arms at once. At this apex of power, she could meld her arms together in order to create slightly larger ones, thereby allowing her to take on more powerful and larger foes. This fusion aspect is also not limited to bigger arms, as other creative and convenient constructs have also been displayed by Robin (even if briefly), such as a pair of wings to slow down a fall or a tree-like mass of limbs powerful enough to hold down even an ancient giant.
After the timeskip, Robin's duplication ability has grown to the point of being able to sprout up to one thousand body parts at once, melding them into gigantic limbs. She has also developed the ability to create a full-body clone of herself. Unlike the rest of her abilities, her clone is also able to generate clothing (though this is an intentional discrepancy common to all Devil Fruits for obvious reasons).
The Hana Hana no Mi's user has the unique weaknesses of having any damage to their sprouted body parts transferred to their real body. This not only includes injury or strain, but also effects from other Devil Fruits, meaning Robin is particularly vulnerable against other Devil Fruit users whose abilities manifest through simple touch, as no matter how distant she is from them, she can be affected if contact is made with her replicas. Gigantified body parts, despite their strength, also carry the inherent risk of providing an opponent a bigger target to strike against.
The capabilities of each replicated appendage is no different to that of Robin's actual corresponding limbs, meaning they reflect her own physical strength. This means that if a specific enemy is too heavy, Robin may have trouble holding them down. While Robin's gigantic limb constructs can remedy this to an extent, she will exhaust herself faster if she needs to create multiple instances of them.
The body parts are also bound to the surface they sprout from and cannot move from their spot. Moreover, the user cannot create limbs where there is not enough room. Environmental hazards like fires are effective at limiting Robin's abilities too, as the flames will burn any surface potentially usable for the sprouting, as well as the sprouted limbs themselves.
Another weakness of Robin's Devil Fruit is that she needs to be able to see the object or what it looks like for her to effectively sprout her limbs on them. Therefore, she cannot attack, counter, or capture an enemy or object if she cannot see it within her range of view. This was seen well during the Jaya Arc, where Robin only managed to capture a South Bird located on the treetops once she had a clear view of it. If the target is quick enough to escape her sight before she can sprout limbs on them, the limbs will instead sprout on someone else.
Before the Timeskip
Robin had been using her powers as far back as her childhood, when she was demonized by other Ohara children for her bizarre abilities and considered a freaky monster as a result. During those times, her Devil Fruit was mostly used for self-defense purposes, against those same children. As an adult, Robin utilizes the Hana Hana no Mi primarily for combat. Her fighting style is mostly based on submission and grappling (and later wrestling), replicating her arms on specific points of her opponent's body to either immobilize, disarm or perform painful joint locks. When Robin activates her fruit's powers, she often takes a specific stance with her arms crossed in front of her body, almost as if she were concentrating. Outside of combat, the Hana Hana no Mi is plenty versatile, letting Robin multitask or help herself with some leisure activity. She may also employ her extra limbs for sillier applications, such as tickling or making comical imagery.
After the Timeskip
After the two-year timeskip, Robin has acquired a new level of skill with using her ability, as she has shown to be able to grow one thousand arms at once, along with learning to create a replica of her entire body with clothing. Moreover, during her stay with the Revolutionary Army, Koala and Sabo used their knowledge of Fish-Man Karate and Ryusoken, respectively, to help Robin incorporate palm strikes to her fighting style. This granted her more offensive power beyond her usual joint locking techniques. She has also changed the name of her technique Manos to Mano. It was shown the first time when she used Gigantesco Mano, and later shown in other techniques.
Past
At or before 8 years old, Robin ate the Hana Hana no Mi, thus gaining its powers. As a result, she had been ostracized by many citizens of Ohara for being a freak, which is a typical response in regards to a Devil Fruit user.
•Similar to the Noro Noro no Mi or the Bari Bari no Mi, Robin tends to make accompanying gestures when using her powers, pointing to the spot from which to sprout appendages as a child and crossing her arms with her palms facing up as an adult. However, she has been seen activating her powers without them and is likely not required to.
•Occasionally, when Robin uses or dispells her techniques, Chrysanthemum petals are formed in the air.

Bronze cannon with inscription dated the 3rd year of the Zhiyuan era (1332) of the Yuan Dynasty (1271–1368); discovered in Beijing in 1935. The earliest artistic depiction of what might be a hand cannon—a rock sculpture found among the Dazu Rock Carvings—is dated to 1128, much earlier than any recorded or precisely dated archaeological samples, so it is possible that the concept of a cannon-like firearm has existed since the 12th century.
