Bonney

Biodata

Background

Bonney sailed from the South Blue with a crew made up largely of chefs. Though she appeared to be a young woman, she was only about ten years old. Her purpose in going to sea was to find her father, Bartholomew Kuma 87 88 107.

Kuma asked Cifer to look after Bonney, while also hoping she could choose her own path. Bonney initially resented Cifer for taking Kuma’s Shichibukai seat: after Kuma’s departure from the position, she found it harder to trace him 35 42 87.

When their ships met, Bonney tried to take responsibility for her crew and fought Cifer to protect them. Unable to affect him with her Devil Fruit power, she accepted his invitation to join him and continue searching for Kuma. Her former crewmates returned toward the South Blue rather than joining Cifer’s ship 87 88 89. Bonney later reunited with Kuma on Sabaody Archipelago 133.

Appearance

Bonney has pink hair and can appear either as a young woman or as a child 87 107 116.

• Her child form reflects her approximate age of ten 107 116.
• Her wanted poster later depicts her as a child eating pizza 234.

Personality

• Protective of her crew: Bonney ordered her companions not to resist Cifer and tried to shoulder the consequences of their encounter herself 87 88.
• Food-obsessed: Her appetite outpaced the cooks on her former ship; she eagerly sought out desserts on Fish-Man Island and Whole Cake Island 87 161 220.
• Headstrong: She challenged Cifer despite the gap in strength, confronted men who bothered her at Water Seven, and chose to remain behind when Marine Admirals approached Egghead 87 109 266.

Abilities & Skills

Year-Year Fruit

Bonney can change a person’s age, including her own. The fruit is identified as the Year-Year Fruit 87 109 116 234.

• She attempted to turn Cifer into a child, but her power had no effect on him 87 88.
• She aged several men at Water Seven and later appeared in her child form 109 116.
• Her changes do not necessarily last indefinitely: maintaining Rayleigh’s younger appearance required effort from her and would only work for a limited time 97.
• Her attempt to use the ability against a Marine with stronger Haki failed 101.

Power Granted by Cifer

Cifer placed a seed of his Spiritual Pressure within Bonney, telling her that it would develop into a new ability as she grew stronger. She immediately felt unusually energetic, but the resulting ability was not identified at that point 102.
