Throughout the One Piece series, it’s undeniable that Devil Fruit awakenings deliver some of the most peak highlights in both the anime and the manga. From Luffy to Doflamingo to Law, anyone who has awakened their DF powers knows the substantial surge of strength and abilities that comes with it.
That being said, there are still many strong Devil Fruits in the series that are already powerful without the bonus. What if some of them awakened? Let’s explore the potential DF awakenings that could take them to god-tier while also ranking them by the massive power they could potentially bring.

10 The Doru Doru no Mi Could Rival a Pseudo-Logia Battlefield Control
The Doru Doru no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationThe Doru Doru no Mi (Wax-Wax Fruit) is one of the most underrated Devil Fruits in the series, mostly because Mr. 3 was unable to unlock its true potential. From creating wax contraptions to even wax clones, it has massive potential and could have become a major league Paramecia-type DF if it were eaten by the right mouth.
Awakening: If the Doru Doru no Mi were ever awakened, the user could essentially turn the entire environment into wax, essentially a Logia-type ability. Additionally, it will likely become contactless trapping with wax restraints, and the user can also flood the entire area with slippery wax to restrict physical movement.
9 Bari Bari no Mi Could Create Barriers That Protect an Entire Army
The Bari Bari no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationWhen it comes to defensive Devil Fruits, the Bari Bari no Mi (Barrier-Barrier Fruit) is probably one of the most notable ones, as it has literally one job – to create barriers. However, Bartolomeo has also shown offensive applications of the fruit with hard punches coated with the barrier, following a similar dynamic to Armament Haki.
Awakening: If awakened, the DF will surely gain a massive range. The range can even coat entire cities and armies, becoming like an impenetrable fortress. Furthermore, it can also be used to trap enemies in designated spots, allowing battlefield control.
8 The Hobi Hobi no Mi Could Easily Become a One-Shot Devil Fruit
The Hobi Hobi no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationThe Hobi Hobi no Mi (Hobby-Hobby Fruit) has one of the most broken Paramecia-type Devil Fruit abilities. Sugar can use her DF powers to turn others into toys, erase their memories, and even erase their existence – no one to remember once they are gone. Already a powerful fruit, which can become absurdly more broken once awakened.
Awakening: Once awakened, the Hobi Hobi no Mi will no longer need contact to apply its effects. The user can easily use the one-shot Devil Fruit powers to transmute others into toys from range and gain control of them. What makes it scary is that the DF powers will bypass durability, resistance, and other type advantages.
7 The Soru Soru no Mi Will Likely Become a Soul Reaper Devil Fruit
The Soru Soru no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationBelonging to one of the former Emperors of the Sea, the Soru Soru no Mi (Soul-Soul Fruit) already possesses some of the most devastating and strong effects and abilities. Big Mom uses the fruit to steal the lifespan of others and even control Homies by taking a part of the souls of her victims.
Awakening: If Big Mom had awakened the Soru Soru no Mi, things would have been completely different in the Whole Cake Island Arc and the Wano Country Arc. The soul extraction would no longer have been limited to individuals, but spread over a large area. Furthermore, the new Homies would be much larger in scale with even more terrifying powers.
6 The Goro Goro no Mi’s Awakening Would Make Enel an Actual “God”
The Goro Goro no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationThe Goro Goro no Mi (Rumble-Rumble Fruit) is already one of the strongest Logia-type Devil Fruits. The power to control and manipulate thunder, one of the hardest-hitting and most disastrous natural elements, is what gave Enel the “God” title on Skypiea Island in the first place. Now imagine that amplified by even 50%.
Awakening: The god-tier awakening potential of the Goro Goro no Mi is just mind-breaking to even think of. The lightning can become omnipresent – attacks become unpredictable and strike from anywhere. Furthermore, imagine the atmosphere itself becoming a conduit, a highly volatile electrical field that fries enemies instantly, unless they are made of rubber.
5 An Awakened Pika Pika no Mi Could Turn Battlefields Into Domains
The Pika Pika no Mi in One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationThe Pika Pika no Mi (Glint-Glint Fruit) ranks among the strongest Logia-type Devil Fruits in the whole One Piece series. Not only is the DF one of the most versatile, but it is also one of the most destructive ones. Now imagine this broken DF ability being elevated to god-tier with an awakening.
Awakening: Things will go beyond what even the traditional “awakening” means if the Pika Pika no Mi were to transcend. Turning the surroundings into light itself, the user can instantly move anywhere in the area. And then there’s omnidirectional lasers with no clear source – this alone is enough to explain why it becomes god-tier.
4 The Yami Yami no Mi’s Awakening Means an AOE Devil Fruit Shutdowns
The Yami Yami no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationBlackbeard‘s Yami Yami no Mi (Dark-Dark Fruit) literally has the power to cancel out other Devil Fruit abilities and powers upon contact. Not only that, but it can also absorb everything and later release it as a counterattack. It also implies gravity on anything it absorbs, including beings, and crushes them under immense pressure.
Awakening: The awakening of the Yami Yami no Mi is more or less the end of the entire world of One Piece. Instead of contact nullification, the user can now nullify multiple targets over a large AOE. Furthermore, the permanent gravity boost will constantly keep sucking everything inside the black hole with no chance of retaliation.
3 Gura Gura no Mi’s Awakening Could Be the World’s Ending Tragedy
The Gura Gura no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationThe Gura Gura no Mi (Tremor-Tremor Fruit) is as strong as Paramecia-type Devil Fruits get, and mainly thanks to the wielder, Whitebeard. The powers of the Gura Gura no Mi not only shook the world and the seas, but it also literally broke them.
Awakening: If the Gura Gura no Mi awakened while Whitebeard was alive, the world would have been destroyed if even one single person wronged him. The full power would create a cycle of natural disasters: earthquakes, tsunamis, and tectonic shifts. And the constant tremors and quakes are a given at this point.
2 Nikyu Nikyu no Mi’s Awakening Changes the Core Concept of Repulsion
The Nikyu Nikyu no Mi from One Piece | Credits: Toei AnimationThe Nikyu Nikyu no Mi (Paw-Paw Fruit) was a treasure of the World Nobles before it was stolen and eaten by Bartholomew Kuma. The DF can deflect physical attacks instantly and even repel people across vast distances – the extraction and repulsion also include intangible things like pain and fatigue.
Awakening: The awakening of the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi would change the very core concept of repulsion in the series – affecting larger concepts like pressure, force, maybe even energy itself. Furthermore, the repulsion can also become contactless, making it even more versatile; hence scarier.
1 The Magu Magu no Mi’s Awakening Means a World of Endless Lava
Under the possession of Admiral Akainu, the Magu Magu no Mi (Mag-Mag Fruit) is one of the most devastating, destructive, and terrifying Devil Fruits. While maintaining the Logia-type intangibility, the Magu Magu no Mi overwhelms even other elemental fruits, as seen in the anime with Ace’s Mera Mera no Mi. With lava fists and eruptions, it is already in a league of its own.
Awakening: This might be taking the “awakening” concept too far. If the Magu Magu no Mi were to awaken, it could potentially turn entire landscapes into magma. Additionally, there would be continuous lava generation from the surroundings, which would already be transformed into a permanent volcanic environment.
