Simply astonishing! Today I had a guest from another world. He is a king, and his vessel is built of the material that composed the meteors. He called the pieces "gummi blocks". It seemed that my opening the door has opened a path to interworld travel.
We talked for countless hours, but one story in particular caught my interest: that of a key called the "Keyblade". The Keyblade is said to hold phenomenal power.
One legend says its wielder saved the world, while another says that he wrought chaos and ruin upon it. I must know what this Keyblade is. A key opens doors. It must be connected to the door I have opened.

Background

The Gummi Ship (グミシップ Gumi Shippu?) is the main method of transportation between worlds in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts III. The other games use other mechanics for transportation. Several characters, including King Mickey and Sora, as well as groups like the Heartless and the Nobodies, use Gummi Ships to move between worlds. These ships are made entirely of Gummi Blocks, made of special Gummi material that allows to travel between Worlds. Although Gummi travel seems to have originated with King Mickey, it is now mostly handled by his loyal subjects Chip and Dale, as well as Radiant Garden refugee Cid and Pinocchio's father, Geppetto.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of the Gummi Ship's history. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!


Before Kingdom Hearts
Gummi Ships are constructed of the material that fell upon the worlds as a result of their doors being opened.Template:Storylink

King Mickey was the first to create a Gummi Ship and used it to visit Ansem the Wise in Radiant Garden to discover the reason why the worlds were disappearing. Both Ansem and his apprentice, Xehanort, were fascinated by the Gummi technology, and discovered it was possible because the Heartless had destroyed the world barriers.

Kingdom Hearts
Sora, Donald, and Goofy all use the Gummi Ship to sail across the worlds. Using the most open routes possible, the trio traverse the universe in hopes of locating the King and Riku. Riku first discovers that a Corridor of Darkness works faster than any ship but drains one's life force. After sealing the Keyhole of Hollow Bastion, Leon reveals that when the Heartless are extinguished, it will be impossible to traverse worlds anymore because the world barriers will be reconstructed. Sora, although disappointed, knows it will be for the best. It is unknown what happened to the Gummi Ship after the trio landed in the End of the World, but it presumably stays in the world until it collapses, and then falls into the void of darkness.

Kingdom Hearts II
Yen Sid magically retrieves the Gummi Ship and returns it to Sora and company when they arrive at his tower. King Mickey likely uses his Gummi Ship to travel across worlds as well. In Radiant Garden, Uncle Scrooge reveals how the Gummi Ships were made. This time around, the gang have to unlock Gates in order to make it across worlds before Heartless appear there. Once again, it is unknown what happened to the Gummi Ship when The World That Never Was fell apart, but it is likely that it was recovered and used for Mickey to report to Yen Sid about the location of Ventus' heart later on.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance
Mickey, Donald and Goofy use the Gummi Ship to travel from the Mysterious Tower to Disney Castle to confront Maleficent, and likely use it to return.

Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-
In order for Sora to regain the powers he lost when Xehanort kidnapped his body, Yen Sid directs Sora and his friends to go seek training from Hercules at Olympus Coliseum. On board the Gummi Ship, Sora initially has trouble finding a route, but at Goofy's urging, takes Yen Sid's words to heart and uses his heart as his "guiding key", opening a Gate to the world.

Kingdom Hearts III
Sora, Donald, and Goofy often sit in the cockpit of the Gummi Ship as they decide what to do next and keep up with Riku, Mickey, and Ienzo on the Gummiphone.

After Xehanort's defeat, Riku uses the Gummi Ship to pick up Naminé at Radiant Garden, and Roxas, Xion, Hayner, Pence, Olette, Isa, and Lea at Twilight Town, and brings them all to the Destiny Islands for a party.

Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Flight, Spaceflight (Is designed to fly through space to travel between worlds[3]), Fusionism (Gummi Blocks are a rubber-like material that fuses with other Gummi Blocks[4]), Large Size (Type 1 for regular Gummi Ships. Gummi Ships are significantly larger than regular people. Type 0 for Teeny Ships. Teeny Gummi Ships are around the same size as a Gummi Ship cockpit), Acrobatics (Can perform dodge roll maneuvers to avoid damage), Limited Intangibility (Phasing. The Gummi Blocks were originally made from the barriers between worlds[5], allowing them to phase through barriers that haven't collapsed yet[6]), Vacuum Manipulation (Has a magnetic-like vacuum that pulls in nearby items), Curtain Fire (The innate Highwind model is capable of spread fire when firing attacks), Electricity Manipulation and Homing Attack (The Gummi Ship can fire multiple electricity-based projectiles that home in on nearby targets), Invulnerability (Type 1. Remains invulnerable whilst performing a dodge roll, which can be amplified by abilities), Radar Sensing (Has a built-in radar that tracks nearby enemies and obstacles).


Resistance to Gravity Manipulation, Biological Manipulation, Cosmic Radiations (Can survive the vacuums of space), Extreme Heats (Gummi Blocks were originally made from the barrier encompassing worlds. When the door to a world's heart opens, the barrier collapses and falls to the surface like a comet[7]), Magma Manipulation (The Gummi Blocks are resistant to magma and don't catch fire when submerged by it)

Light Manipulation, Homing Attack (Thunder-G, Thundara-G, Comet-G, Meteor-G, Ultima-G, Fire G, Fira G, Firaga G, Blizzard G, Blizzara G, Blizzaga G, Gravity G, Gravira G, Graviga G, Comet G, Meteor G, and Ultima G all fire lasers in various directions, some of which are homing lasers), Explosion Manipulation and Electromagnetism Manipulation (Thundaga-G, Bomb G fire explosive missiles that form an electromagnetic explosion area in its wake), Attack Reflection and Vacuum Manipulation (Boomerang G and Drain G reflect enemy projectiles, with the latter gummi vacuuming them up and firing them back),

Damage Reduction and Statistics Amplification (All Gummi Blocks innately reduce damage due to their elastic morphing physiology, along with increase a Gummi Ship's stats based on the particular part), Power Modification, Restoration, and Statistics Amplification (Cure-G, Curaga-G, Life-G, Full-life-G, Bubble Helm G, Flat Helm G, Solid Helm G, Sphere Helm G, Bridge G, Big Bridge G, Mini Helm G, and Long Helm G provide various effects to a Gummi Ship such as modifying healing items, restoring ARMs to full power, boosting Gummi Ship power, and amplifying Gummi weapon output), Teleportation (Warp Gummies allow a Gummi Ship to warp to other worlds), Radar Sensing and Information Analysis (Scan-G, Antenna G, and Parabola G scan enemies ahead and can scan an enemy's health), Transformation (Type 3. Transformation-G allows a Gummi Ship to morph and transform into another Gummi Ship), Forcefield Creation (Shield-G, Shield2-G, Shield G, and Large Shield G provide a protective barrier around a Gummi Ship that absorbs damage), Invisibility Negation (Esuna-G reveals invisible objects with its lights), Minor Attack Nullification (Shield G, Large Shield G, Shell G, and Large Shell G block and nullify enemy fire)

    To study the Heartless behavior, I picked one out for observation. It wiggled its antennae and, as if sensing a target, headed deep into the castle. In the deepest part of the castle, its antennae began vibrating, as if searching for something. Suddenly, a strange door appeared. I'd never known of its existence.
    It had a large keyhole, but didn't seem to be locked. So I opened the door. What I saw on the other side mystified me. What was that powerful mass of energy? That night I observed a great meteor shower in the sky. Could it be related to the door that I have opened?

    I am studying material from the meteors that rained down that fateful night. What a find! The material is foreign to our world. It is elastic to the touch, and when two pieces are combined, they bond easily. None of the records even mention such a substance.
    Was it introduced to this world when I opened the door? I wonder how many other such materials drift through the atmosphere of this tiny world... I wish I could soar off and find out! Could there be uncharted worlds up there? My curiosity never ceases to grow.
    But I should stop speaking of such unrealistic dreams. For now, there is no way to venture outside this world. My people and I are all but prisoners of this tiny place.
