We propose a novel enhancement mechanism of the curvature perturbations in
the nonminimal derivative coupling inflation model with a coupling parameter
related to the inflaton field. By considering a special form of the coupling
parameter as a function of the inflaton, a period of ultra-slow-roll inflation
can be realized due to the gravitationally enhanced friction, and the resulting
power spectrum of the curvature perturbations has a sharp peak, which is large
enough to produce the primordial black holes. Under this mechanism, we can
easily obtain a sharp mass spectrum of primordial black holes around specific
masses such as $mathcal{O}(10)M_odot$, $mathcal{O}(10^{-5})M_odot$, and
$mathcal{O}(10^{-12})M_odot$, which can explain the LIGO events, the
ultrashort-timescale microlensing events in OGLE data, and the most of dark
matter, respectively.
