Paramecia · current: Emporio Ivankov
Profile
A Paramecia that lets the user freely control hormones — gender, body temperature, pigmentation, growth, excitement — remaking the human body “from the inside.” Eaten by Emporio Ivankov, the “Miracle Worker,” who calls himself “an engineer of the human body who can alter people from the inside” (Ch. 538 p. 8). The in-world source of the Newkama’s transcended gender (the “candy” residents of New Kama Land) and of Ivankov’s gender-altering miracles. Named/explained on-page @0538; the power was first shown unnamed @0537 (the Death Wink / Hell’s Wink eyelash-blast; Emporio Estrogen sex-change).

The Emporio Healing Hormone stimulates the user’s “natural immunity factors,” forcing the body to break down and regenerate at an extreme rate to override poison — at the cost of years of life, survivable only by enduring the pain. It cures Luffy of Magellan’s poison (Ch. 538 pp. 2-7); quoted cost “ten years of your life,” guarantee only “2 or 3 percent.”

Lore & theories
The hormone-control power explicitly prices its “miracle” cure in lifespan — a restatement of the One Piece power-for-lifespan motif (cf. the Gear-Second lifespan-cost tell), here as a survival bargain.
