This article contains spoilers from the One Piece manga.
One Piece Magazine has always been something that fans get very excited about. Usually, this magazine gets a new issue every few months, and it is filled to the brim with supplementary information. Oda also reveals some new bits and pieces of information in these magazines, and this time around, fans have him officially confirm the most powerful Devil Fruit in the world of One Piece.

Shanks has a huge bounty, but he might not have the highest active bounty in One Piece.
One Piece Magazine Issue 20 dropped recently, and it specifically focused on the abilities of the Whitebeard Pirates. Oda went into great detail for both Whitebeard and Marco’s Devil Fruit. Of course, these true fruits are very different and only one of them can be officially consistent to be the strongest in One Piece, and that is Whitebeard's Gura Gura no Mi. While fans already knew that the Gura Gura no Mi was one of the strongest, One Piece Magazine has now officially confirmed that this fruit is, indeed, a power that one can only tremble in front of.
Oda Confirms The Gura Gura no Mi As The Mightiest Devil Fruit
Its Powers Are Comparable To An Ancient Weapon
- It can cause earthquakes and tsunamis
- An island can be wiped out in an instant
When Whitebeard's power first debuted in One Piece, it was already very clear to everyone that he had one of the most ferocious Devil Fruits. After all, Sengoku openly proclaimed that even though they had the numerical advantage over Whitebeard's group during the Paramount War, they could very well have met their end that day. Whitebeard was openly called the Strongest Man in the World, and at the same time, Oda confirmed that he had the power to destroy the world.
Don't think that having greater numbers means we've won. We could very well meet our end today. — Sengoku to Marines in Marineford
Say Goodbye To The One Piece Manga For Now
The One Piece manga is going on a sudden break, and fans are concerned about Oda's health.
In One Piece Magazine Vol. 20, it has officially been confirmed that the Gura Gura no Mi is a power that can shake the land, sea, and sky. It can cause earthquakes that can be felt kilometres away and raise tsunamis that can sink islands in an instant. This Devil Fruit brings natural disasters that can destroy the whole world, and that is a big reason why Whitebeard was the strongest man in the world. No Devil Fruit in One Piece comes close to it in terms of destructive power and that's what makes it truly special.
The Gura Gura no Mi Can Destroy The World
Blackbeard Has Mastered Its Powers
There are countless Devil Fruits in the world of One Piece and fans already know that they're all special in their own way. Luffy's Nika fruit, for example, is the most ridiculous power in the world and is powerful in its own way.
He's going to run wild, the strongest man in the whole world. — Sengoku on Whitebeard.
But, when it comes to pure power and sheer strength, and destructive capability, not even Imu's Devil Fruit or Luffy's God power comes close to what Whitebeard's Gura Gura no Mi can do. The fact is that this is the only Devil Fruit in One Piece that is comparable to an Ancient Weapon, thanks to its destructive capability.
Oda also went on to confirm that Teach, the current user of this power, has now fully mastered this ability, and he used it to perfection. Fans haven't seen the full extent of what Teach can do with it just yet, but hopefully, the upcoming chapters of One Piece's Final Saga can remedy that.
One Piece Chapter 1162 will be out this week. As usual, One Piece is going to drop on Sunday. In Japan, One Piece drops at 12AM JST on Monday. However, the vast majority of international readers will see the chapter available on October 5. The official release date of One Piece Chapter 1162 is October 5, 2025.
