TheSaki Saki no Mi is a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows the user to create and manipulate unlimited amounts of gold dust, fine particles of gold, turning the user into a Gold Dust Human (砂金人間, Sakin Ningen). "Saki" comes from the Japanese word for gold dust, "sakin" (砂金). In the English version, it is called the Gold Gold Fruit. This ability is not to be confused with a Logia-class power, as the user cannot transform their body or any part of their body into gold dust.
Pale-headed saki monkeys, or white-faced saki monkeys, are named for the male's appearance. Males are black except for the head, which is white or reddish, while females are mostly brown to brown-gray, with paler bellies, and have bright white to pale red stripes extending from each eye to the corners of the mouth.
They live in secondary, ridge, savanna and marsh forests, usually at elevations of 688 to 2,460 feet (210 to 750 meters). They move through the forest both quadrupedally and by leaping. They are wholly arboreal, but sometimes descend to the lower limbs of trees or even to bushes in search of food.
Duet vocalizations between males and females are important in maintaining territorial boundaries, as well as the social bond between pairs. They may also raise their hair and jump up and down on branches while emitting a loud, shrill, territorial call.
Pale-headed sakis eat mainly fruit, and they have robust incisors and canines to break through the tough skins and shells. They also eat seeds, nuts, leaves and insects, especially ants. They are an important seed disperser for many plants.
Sakis live in monogamous pairs or small family groups of two to five animals. Juveniles may stay with their parents for up to a year or two after the birth of the next infant. These small groups may come together to form larger congregations.
The breeding season in the wild is not clearly known. Births in human care occur throughout the year. The estrous cycle lasts 18 days, and gestation is five months, after which a single baby is born. Mothers carry infants on their hip for the first month and then the baby rides on her back.
