Devil Fruits are the One Piece secret sauce—the crazy, usually preposterous abilities that transform ordinary pirates into world-rocking legends. With powers ranging from “somewhat helpful” to “actual god-level,” Devil Fruits are a key reason why the series is so surprising and entertaining. But not all Fruits are made the same. Some give users near-invulnerability, others redefine the rules of reality, and some are just broken. So, let’s count down the 10 most powerful Devil Fruits in One Piece, ranked from extremely powerful to overpowered.
10. Bari Bari no Mi (Barrier-Barrier Fruit)
It’s difficult to top Bartolomeo’s “invisible wall” trick. The Bari Bari no Mi allows him to call down indestructible barriers of whatever shape he desires. Deflecting an attack from giants like Oden and even withstanding meteor-level blows? Check. For defense or smashing enemies with gigantic invisible fists, this Fruit makes Bartolomeo a human fortress. Even Collider comments that only a person like Shanks—with next-generation Haki—was able to breach. That’s impressive.
9. Nikyu Nikyu no Mi (Paw-Paw Fruit)
Bartholomew Kuma’s paw-print hands are much more frightening than they appear. The Nikyu Nikyu no Mi allows him to deflect anything he touches—people, air, pain, even memories—at lightspeed. That translates to instant teleportation around the globe or shooting shockwaves using compressed air. It’s a power constrained only by how creatively it is employed. Beebom sums it best: the more outside-the-box the user, the more frightening this Fruit is.
8. Mori Mori no Mi (Woods-Woods Fruit)
Admiral Ryokugyu introduces some serious nature power with the Mori Mori no Mi. This Logia Fruit lets him manipulate and transform into all types of plant life. He can spawn forests, drain life from enemies, and heal from a twig. The plants he manipulates aren’t even flammable—blaze attacks? Meaningless. As Screen Rant describes, his forest transformation is so large and resilient that even dragons can’t match it.
7. Mero Mero no Mi (Love-Love Fruit)
Boa Hancock’s Mero Mero no Mi might seem like a beauty-based gimmick, but in practice? It’s terrifying. With just a glare or a gesture, she can turn people to stone. Originally thought to only affect those who lust after her, it’s later shown that the effect can be weaponized in direct combat. GameRant calls it one of the most dangerous Paramecia Fruits around—and rightly so. Once you’re petrified, you’re done.
6. Zushi Zushi no Mi (Press-Press Fruit)
Fujitora’s Zushi Zushi no Mi is gravity on steroids. He can control gravity whenever he wants—pin foes down, lift heavy objects, or summon meteors from the heavens as if he’s calling pizza delivery. The sheer level of devastation this Fruit provides is enough to redesign the battlefield in a matter of seconds. As Beebom notes, the Zushi Zushi no Mi is essentially a world-destroying tool in capable hands.
5. Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu (Fish-Fish Fruit, Azure Dragon)
Kaido’s monster strength is partly a result of this Mythical Zoan Fruit. The Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu turns him into a flying Eastern dragon that can blast fire, produce lightning, and produce flame clouds that allow entire islands to float. It’s so powerful that even a cloned copy gave Momonosuke the power to resist Kaido. Collider states this Fruit is a central reason Kaido became the “Strongest Creature.”.
4. Ope Ope no Mi (Op-Op Fruit)
Trafalgar Law’s signature Fruit is renowned for its utility. Within his “ROOM,” he is a surgeon of reality—teleporting, personality-swapping, slicing without taking lives, and even offering immortality (at the ultimate price). Whether he’s aiding allies or taking apart enemies in mid-battle, the Ope Ope no Mi is the Swiss Army knife of One Piece abilities. As GameRant states, it’s referred to as the “Ultimate DevilFruit” for a reason.
3. Hobi Hobi no Mi (Hobby-Hobby Fruit)
Sugar’s Hobi Hobi no Mi doesn’t look intimidating at first—but it’s nightmare fuel. One touch and she turns people into toys, erasing them from everyone’s memory. Not only do these poor souls vanish from history, but they’re forced to obey her every command. Oh, and she stops aging. GameRant emphasizes how horrifying this power really is. Underestimate it, and you’re a puppet forever.
2. Gura Gura no Mi (Tremor-Tremor Fruit)
This was Whitebeard’s trump card—and now Blackbeard’s. The Gura Gura no Mi allows its wielder to induce earth-shattering quakes and shockwaves. It can destroy islands, cleave seas, and shatter the sky itself. Beebom lists it as the most devastating Paramecia-type, and even Oda himself has referred to it as the strongest in its category. Few Fruits are this straightforward and this deadly.
1. Dark-Dark Fruit
Blackbeard’s Yami Yami no Mi stands at the pinnacle of the food chain, being a Logia Fruit with abilities that are unlike anything else. Rather than avoiding attacks like other users of Logia, it pulls them in—everything else with them. Darkness, in this case, behaves as gravity does, and it even negates other Devil Fruit powers upon contact. GameRant considers it the series’s’ most dangerous Fruit, and it’s not hard to understand why: it negates all other abilities, which is just insane.
And that’s it—10 Devil Fruits that are less powers and more cheat codes for doomsday. Whether it’s gravity, erasing memories, earthquakes, or straight-up god-mode, these Fruits give you an idea of how crazy One Piece can become. As the series speeds towards its conclusion, we can only speculate on what manner of destruction these powers will bring next. Who has the most busted Fruit in the narrative? Let us know your choice!
