Fighting Style
Hawkins ate the Straw-Straw Fruit, a Paramecia-class Devil Fruit that allows him to produce and manipulate straw at will. The straw has a wide range of uses, such as using them to trap enemies in, or shaping the straw into objects and weapons. The straw is able to form nails for him to use as weapons, as well as create a sword. One of the more advanced techniques available to Hawkins is damage redirection. Hawkins is able to store small straw dolls inside his body, and each doll represents a real person and is connected to them. Any damage that Hawkins receives is transferred to the other person through the doll, akin to a voodoo doll. This makes Hawkins extremely resilient, allowing him to survive grave and even fatal injuries.
