The upper limit of a Devil Fruit depended on how freely its user could imagine.
Setting aside the simple and straightforward Zoan, among the remaining categories, Paramecia relied the most on concepts and imagination.
Creating things,
Controlling things,
Partial supernatural transformation,
And even domination!
Among the many types of Paramecia Devil Fruits, there were two that had left the deepest impression on Maud.

The former needed no explanation. Relying on the repulsive properties of the Paw-Paw Fruit, Kuma had even managed to repel abstract concepts such as pain and fatigue.
