Gunblade (dont judge me)

weapon name: Fallen Angel
description: A Desert Eagle .44 caliber Magnum round Pistol with a Large blade attached underneath the barrel, the barrel lines up perfectly with the top edge of the blade. the blade itself is roughly 3'4" long in the shape of a Combat knife http://www.knifecenter.com/knifecenter/tops/images/107d.jpg
weapon special abilities: the boom boom fruit, (#5 had it, the nose picker dude) When you pull the trigger, the blade emits a small explosion as if you were actually firing the gun at point blank range.

Gunblade~

So... it's a pistol with, for all intensive purposes, a built in bayonet. They do exist.

As for the fruit ability... your description suggests that simply pulling the trigger will cause the same effect as firing a blank. Is this the intention?

firing a blank? what? no... the blade itself is charged and fused with the fruit, so when you pull the trigger, the blade lets off a shockwave like explosion... and the blade is 3'4" long, considerabley larger than something thats been actually made, closer to squall's from FF8, but with a desert eagle pistol. the Deagle is fully operational as well, so if you pull the trigger, the gun fires a round if one is chambered as well

Yah. An explosion in the barrel of a gun without a bullet to push out is essentially a blank. It expels super heated air, But the gun would have to be right against someone to hurt them. And considering the length of the blade, I think the blade would do more damage in that case. If you want the gun to deal damage to people at a rage with nothing in the barrel, you would need a fruit that produce powerful air or sonic attacks, not an explosion in the barrel with nothing to propel outwards. Unless of course the point is you can fire off items from the gun without the need for powder.

NO! GAAAAH! im saying, the BLADE, NOT THE GUN, emits a shockwave type explosion, like if you made a ball solely out of gunpowder, and lit it, it would explode, no shrapnel, but a large shockwave. the blade itself emits the explosion. the gun only fires when theres bullets in there. though i like your idea of wind... maybe ill change it to a wind fruit, so the barrel fires compressed air strong enough to dent steel...

I've never really understood how you do any kind of slashing with a gunblade, it seems really awkward to use.

death the kid style close combat

Haseo's Dual Guns have blades on them. I made guns with blades on them.

also some fencers have handles shaped like that of guns (ive seen it)

It's called a pistol grip.

Hmm... But if the explosion came from the gun and radiated outward, it would most likely deal more damage to you than an enemy anyway. And it would happen every time you pull the trigger as the fruit wouldn't care if there were bullets in the chamber or not. I honestly suggest a rework.

But if that is really what you want, just say so.

i was in the middle of posting something, but i think it got deleted by a power outage or something stupid like that...

but i like your fruit idea, a sonic sonic fruit... id have to get that fruit okayed though first. so ill do that

there is already the oto oto no me...................
