Cuatro Mano requires Robin to sprout forty arms and then combine them to create four gigantic hands. She used this move to hold down a dragon on Punk Hazard and stop it from moving.

The hands emerge from the body of the individual, making it difficult to escape their grasp. If Robin manages to unlock the higher versions of Haki, she can increase the power of this move. There is also a possibility that she may add more hands in the future, making them more potent.

6 Double Clutch

Then, she uses Clutch on the two targets to break their lower spines and necks. This move doesn't take long to execute, so Robin often relies on this move in fights. Double Clutch is also great for assassinations, as Robin can take down her foes silently.

  • Type: Devil Fruit and Physical

This is one of the many techniques that Robin developed during the time-skip. To use this attack, Robin creates two massive limbs. They can sprout from almost anywhere, so she can catch her opponents off-guard.

These limbs can generate a great deal of force, which makes them ideal to use against a bigger opponent or to clear out an area with many enemies. Robin can either conjure up two legs or arms, depending on what the situation demands.

  • Type: Devil Fruit, Physical, Fish-Man Karate

Nico Robin spent two years of time-skip with the Revolutionary Army. She learned about the goals of the organization, and everyone got to know her. For a long time, it was unclear if Robin trained with the Revolutionaries to improve her fighting abilities.

She demonstrated her newly learned skills in the Wano Country arc, where she went up against Black Maria. The Tobi Roppo member was out for blood, and she wasn't going to stop until Robin was beaten. In this technique, Robin creates a giant arm and uses it to deliver an upward palm thrust. This attack is powered by Fish-Man Karate, which creates shockwaves to deal hefty damage.

2 Grand Jacuzzi Clutch

  • Type: Devil Fruit and Physical

The Grand Jacuzzi Clutch is an attack used by Robin to deal with Black Maria, who was one of the stronger members of the Beasts Pirates. With the Demonio Fleur still active, Robin sprouts multiple arms to capture the target and pull them toward her.

Once the target is incapacitated by the limbs, Robin can use the Demonio to perform Clutch. The attack's strength was strong enough to knock out and defeat Black Maria, handing Robin her biggest victory after the time-skip.

1 Demonio Fleur

  • Type: Devil Fruit and Physical

This is Robin's strongest attack to date, and she used it against Black Maria. This particular technique requires the creation of a massive clone. It has bat-like wings, horns, and fangs, and its body has a darker shade. This form is a reference to Robin's epithet, Demon Child.

The size of the Demonio Fleur makes it extremely dangerous to deal with. Even a regular arm swing can destroy the surroundings. There is every chance that she will use it again in the future, maybe with other variations.
