Top 6 Most Powerful and Story-Changing Devil Fruits in One Piece
Explore six powerful Devil Fruits in One Piece that played major roles in the story, transforming battles, characters, and the future of the Grand Line

Devil Fruits in One Piece, you see them all the time. There are loads of them, honestly, and most just give cool powers for fighting. But not all of them is like that.While many are used by villains and then forgotten, a few important ones truly helped move the story forward. Without them, lots of stuff wouldn’t even happen.
Now, not every fruit is that deep. Some are just fireballs, gases, or making people big or small. But then there’s these rare Devil Fruits that meant way more. Not only in battle but to people, to kingdoms, and even to the whole world. If those powers ended up in other hands or didn’t exist, maybe One Piece would be a totally different story.
6. Time-Time Fruit: A One-Way Trip to the Future
There's a fruit called the Time-Time fruit, and it’s from long ago. Maybe even since the Void Century. Kozuki Toki used it to save her son, Momonosuke, and others by sending them 20 years forward. Why? Because their clan was doomed. That action pretty much made the Wano arc possible.
Later on, Luffy becomes an Emperor and gets his Gear 5 form during that same Wano saga. All because time got skipped. Without this time-jumping fruit, it’s hard to even imagine how Wano would’ve been saved. No fruit user right now, but if someone gets it again, imagine what else it could do.
5. Mag-Mag Fruit: Lava, Death, and a Whole Lot of Drama
The Mag-Mag Fruit, used by Admiral Akainu, is a scary one. It’s strong. Really strong. It’s the one that killed Ace, Luffy’s brother, at Marineford. Ace had fire, but magma burns hotter. That moment was really sad. It changed Luffy a lot. He understood how important his crew was to him.
After that, Akainu fought Aokiji. A big fight at Punk Hazard. Akainu won, barely. That pushed Aokiji out of the Marines. Then he joined Blackbeard’s crew. Yeah, things just spiraled from there. So that one fruit? Huge consequences.
4. Clone-Clone Fruit: Used Twice, Same Result
Bon Clay’s Clone-Clone Fruit—honestly, this one is kinda special. Most Baroque Works fruits didn’t matter once the villain was beat. But this one? It mattered after. Bon Clay lost to Sanji, but he later became a true friend.
He used that fruit twice to save Luffy. Once in Alabasta, he tricked the Marines by looking like Luffy. He also copied Magellan at Impel Down to help Luffy escape. And both times, it worked. The fruit wasn't powerful in the usual way, but it meant everything in those moments.
3. Gum-Gum Fruit: Not What It Seemed at First
Everyone thought the Gum-Gum Fruit was basic. Luffy stretches, punches things, that’s all. But that’s not even the real fruit. Turns out it’s a Mythical Zoan. The fruit actually made Luffy into Nika, the sun god. Joy Boy, too.
So yeah, that silly fruit? It's the whole reason Luffy’s even a symbol now. People look to him with hope. He’s the one that can fight back against the World Government. Stretching was just the start. It became something far, far more serious.
2. Op-Op Fruit: A Life-Saving Power That Was Meant for Someone Else
Trafalgar Law has the Op-Op Fruit. But originally, Doflamingo wanted it. He wanted immortality from it. But his brother Corazon stopped him. Gave it to Law instead, even though it meant dying.
Because of that, Law became powerful. He helped Luffy in Dressrosa, in Wano, even against Big Mom. Without that fruit in Law’s hands, those battles would be way harder. Maybe impossible. Law’s journey—and Luffy’s—wouldn’t be the same at all.
1. Dark-Dark Fruit: When Everything Went Dark
Then there’s the Dark-Dark Fruit. Maybe the worst of all. Blackbeard betrayed Whitebeard’s crew to get it. With that fruit, he captured Ace. That capture started the Marineford war. And Ace died.
Blackbeard then took Whitebeard’s power and started building his terrifying crew. That fruit, it let him absorb powers and people alike. It turned him from just another pirate into a real threat to the whole world.

A lot of Devil Fruits come and go. But these ones? They stuck around. They changed people. Changed countries. Shifted the entire story. Without them, One Piece wouldn’t be One Piece.
And who knows? Maybe the next fruit we see will do even more. One fruit, in the right hands—or the wrong ones—can change the whole world. That’s the real power of Devil Fruits.
