Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Inugami

The Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Inugami (イヌイヌの実 モデル：犬神) is a Mythical Zoan-class Devil Fruit that allows the user to transform into a Inugami (a giant Dog God/Dog Demon). It was eaten by Phoenix Storm, Vice Admiral of the Marines. (The fruit's name was revealed in a Dreams i had). In the Viz Manga it is called the Dog-Dog Fruit Inugami Model.

Strengths and Weaknesses
The main strength of this fruit is that it allows the user to transform into a giant, Dog-like entity, gaining an extreme boost in strength to match the increased size. In this form, Phoenix has acidic saliva and in his breath spreads poison in the form of mist that melts anything nearby. His entire body takes on a Pail White hue, similar to his Hair; in addition to a full and hybrid transformation that are available to all Zoan Devil Fruit users, he can use his paw to generate a thin, whip-like strand of yellow-green energy from his Claws that can slice through almost anything. This fruit has no apparent weaknesses, aside from the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

Usage


Phoenix has so far been seen using this fruit primarily for combat purposes, enhancing his punching power with his increased size, to the point of injuring the Buddha-like entity, Sengoku and destroying the Mountain they were on, even when it was blocked by Garp's Genkotsu Ryuseigun during a training excessive. It is Rumored, that his strenght is said to be powerful enough to clash against the shock Waves created by Sengoku.

When Phoenix first used his fruit's powers to Destroy a Fleet of Pirates, nearby Marines noted that they had never seen him use it before, suggesting that he rarely transforms.

Trivia

 * This fruit's power is the main reason for Phoenix's moniker: "The Great Dog Demon".
 * Although the fruit's name translates over to "Dog God", a "Inugami" more accurately refers to a Dog Spirit rather than an the actual God, which fits with his Demonic features and his eyes becoming red and the pupils blue.
 * When Phoenix transforms, he is surrounded in a bright red/pink aura or has a tornado.
