Abilities and Powers
Being a mermaid, Adele has several abilities unique to her race. It is not yet shown but she may have the ability to talk to fish and call out to them using sonar waves, which is one of the basic abilities found in all mermaids and some Fish-Men. Apart from the ability to breathe underwater, as a mermaid she also has the ability to swim very quickly at speeds much faster than the flying fish used by the Rosy Life Riders.

History
Fish-Man Island Saga
Fish-Man Island Arc
Adele and her friends first appeared in Mermaid Cove, welcoming the Straw Hat Pirates when Camie brought them there for a visit. When the three princes arrived to inquire the crew’s illegal entry into Fish-Man Island, the mermaids denied the crew was there, hiding them. However, when the crew’s presence were made known anyways by Sanji’s nosebleed and Hammond’s attack, the princes made it clear that they were simply trying to deliver Jinbe’s message to Monkey D. Luffy.
After Ishilly, Fillonce and another mermaid were kidnapped by Caribou, Adele and the others wondered where they went off to, but they had no clue of what happened to them whatsoever. The only thing they did know was that Ishilly had been seen opening a barrel the moment before she disappeared.
After the civil war between the Straw Hats and the New Fish-Man Pirates ended, Adele and her friends were seen dancing at the Ryugu Palace banquet in honor of the Straw Hats’ victory and saw them off when they departed to the New World.
