7-Eleven Offers One Piece Gum Gum Fruit Buns

7-Eleven stores across Japan started selling a sweet bun shaped like the Gum Gum Fruit. Don't worry, you're not likely to gain any strange abilities—even though it has the same deep purple color and characteristic swirls of the Gum Gum Fruit, it's actually just whipped cream and blueberry jam. Each bun sells for 150 yen ($1.50).

The One Piece and 7-Eleven collaboration will also give fans the chance to purchase a variety of One Piece-themed goods, including candies and other snacks.

In addition, customers who buy at least 700 yen ($7) worth of products at 7-Eleven can enter to win special posters or towels. Mail-in lottery forms also give customers the chance to win a special One Piece-themed nanaco card, a prepaid electronic money card used at 7-Eleven stores in Japan, or a special Trafalgar Law figure. Furthermore, customers who pay for their goods using a nanaco card can enter to win a limited edition Monkey D. Luffy figure.
