Notable Attacks/Techniques: 

- Goru Goru no Mi (Gol Gol no Mi): The user can manipulate gold into whatever shape they want; they are also capable of turning solid gold molten and vice versa. They are able to encase people in gold. The user is also able to cover their own skin in gold for increased power, to the point where they can turn into a massive gold golem. If this power is "awakened", the range of the user's influence over gold will increase, extending their senses to the gold that are under their powers, potentially creating a complex sensory network. Any disturbances on such gold will be noticed. The main weakness of this Devil Fruit power is that it cannot create gold and that its power is thus directly proportional to the amount of gold present in its user's surroundings. Furthermore, the user can only manipulate gold that they have previously touched, and contact with seawater will instantly nullify that effect: gold constructs will crack and crumble, and the user will need to touch the gold once more before being able to manipulate it again. Other than that, the user is also affected by the standard Devil Fruit weaknesses.

• Gōrudo Supurasshu (Gold Splash): A move purely for show in which Tesoro sends liquid gold flying out of Gran Tesoro's fountains.

• Gon Bomba (Gold Bomb): A move where Tesoro covers his arm with a golden gauntlet and releases a punch that explodes.

• Gon L'ira di Dio (Golden Wrath of God): Tesoro creates an extremely large tendril of gold with a rounded tip and sends the tip straight towards the opponent with a tremendous amount of power.

• Golden Tesoro: Tesoro's final trump card; a giant golem of himself made out of gold which he operates from the inside.
  
  
  • Gon Fuoco di Dio (Golden Fire of God): The "Golden Tesoro" launches a laser beam from its eyes.
    
    

• Gon Inferno (Gold Inferno): The "Golden Tesoro" strengthens its arm with a golden gauntlet and releases a punch that explodes; a larger version of Gon Bomba.
