what if Luffy ate the dark dark fruit instead of Blackbeard what would happen to the story of one piece and most importantly would Luffy be stronger or weaker with a different devil fruit to explain how Luffy acquired this devil fruit let's consider a scenario where Shanks takes the yummy yumy noi instead of the gugu noi but what could be the rationale behind Shanks obtaining this fruit well we can assume that the garos have a devil fruit that they fear so much that they've changed its name to keep it hidden from public knowledge this feared devil
fruit is the yummy yummy Nomi also known as the dark dark fruit so the redhair Pirates decided to take this fruit away from the Goro SE and still Luffy ended up consuming the fruit and became its user instead of Blackbeard the discovery of the fruit LED Shanks to trigger many positive events in the story but it also caused some unpredictable new events for Luffy the course of One Piece will continue as usual as Luffy at the age of 17 begins his journey in East blue as in the original timeline he quickly dealt with most of
the antagonists in East blue Luffy rescued Kobe from alvida and alvida was easily defeated with a single attack after that Luffy invited Zoro to join his crew and took down Captain Morgan the exact same thing happened to Buggy Captain Kuro was also defeated very quickly due to the abilities of the yummy Yami no me because of the force of gravity Kuro couldn't move as quickly as he would have liked with that scenario Luffy was able to acquire the going Mary and a new crew member usab moving on Luffy invited Sanji to become the cook for
his crew and confronted Don Creek a notorious pirate Captain known for his arsenal of weapons and ruthless tactics thanks to Luffy's training he was able to defeat Don cre in this timeline in arlong park the straw hat Pirates faced some difficulties against the fishmen without knowing what the fishmen were capable of the straw hat Pirates were much more cautious when dealing with him in the end Luffy and the others managed to defeat arlong and his crew not only that but Nami officially joined the crew as the navigator in log Town things got interesting as we
know buggy captured Luffy which is what happened in the original series but in this timeline Luffy wasn't caught by buggy because of his new abilities since Luffy is now a loia user he couldn't be easily captured however Luffy still had to face smoker in this timeline Luffy could grab smoker with the help of his devil fruit while smoker could try to break free from Luffy Luffy could simply pull smoker back to him and touch him to nullify his abilities so Luffy and the others managed to defeat smoker and easily escape the Chase from the Marines
therefore we can't see dragon in this timeline at all which is just a waste if you ask me so far none of the opponents posed a real threat to him by acquiring the yummy yummy no me Luffy definitely had the easiest time in the East blue now the question is how is Luffy's strength compared to the original series contrary to what some might think the dark dark fruit is one of the most powerful fruits in the original one piece Series this loia type devil fruit grants the user the ability to create and manipulate Darkness at
will the primary strength of this devil fruit lies in its how it can use the darkness to manipulate space and the best thing about it is that it can nullify a devil fruit abilities it was so strong in fact that Blackbeard was able to beat ace using it which eventually led to him being captured by the Marines it's reasonable to argue that Luffy's fruit could be considered even more powerful given the terrifying destructive power we've already witnessed just imagine the black hole ability alone but in an awakened State although the concept of Awakenings remains largely
a mystery as we're still uncertain about how each devil fruit is affected one Theory suggests that an awakened loia can transform objects into their respective ability and significantly expand their range of ability basically Luffy is going to be a walking weapon of mass destruction getting back to the story what would happen on the adventure of the straw hat pirates on the grand line actually it's still similar to the original timeline the straw hat Pirates climb the reverse mountain and decide to help Vivy after that the straw hat Pirates will reach little Garden in little garden
Luffy and the others face Mr 3 the straw hat Pirates didn't take much time to defeat this wax guy since Luffy's abilities were too much for Mr 3 to handle the exact same thing happened to wall who was easily knocked out by Luffy in arabasta the straw hat Pirates easily defeated some members of the Baroque Works while Luffy faces the leader of the group crocodile the fight against him could be a challenging one for Luffy same as in the original timeline but now Luffy can avoid crocodile sand attacks in the end crocodile was beaten by
Luffy by nullifying his devil fruit abilities unfortunately the straw hat Pirates wouldn't meet Ace in this timeline since Blackbeard doesn't acquire this devil fruit most likely he will still be a member of the Whitebeard pirates in the G Arc Luffy wouldn't meet Blackbeard however he will be fighting against Bellamy and easily defeats him after that Adventure the straw hat Pirates would stream to travel to skypia similar to the original timeline Luffy will face off against anel this time Luffy would be more cautious this lightning attack of anel can quickly defeat Luffy if he doesn't Dodge
it yet Luffy managed to nullify anel and defeat him with the help of Sanji and Zoro fast forward Luffy faces Kuan who is the first introduced Admiral in the story even if Luffy can touch Kuan and nullify his loia abilities he cannot defeat him physically so they back down and lose Robin Kuan is way more high level compared to Luffy it's like you're level 10 fighting a two-staged 500t boss fast forward the crew is drawn into a conflict with the world government because of their Defiance and how they want to get revenge for Robin this
time Luffy faces Rob Luchi who is a Zone user but what you didn't know is that Luffy can nullify luci's own abilities if Luffy can touch him but with luci's speed it's not going to be that easy but he eventually does because wow there's nothing like a good old black hole moving on the fight against gecko Moria on Thriller bark will be much easier we all know that Moria is not physically strong so if Moria gets nullified then he's basically done similar to the original timeline the straw hat Pirates will get separated on Sati obviously
Luffy will end up in the Amazon Lily but this is where things become even crazier since Blackbeard didn't take the dark dark fruit Ace wouldn't be caught by him and that is still alive with that being said Blackbeard wouldn't be a member of the shukai Luffy wouldn't break into impel down or and there would be no war at marineford in this version of one piece so Luffy and GARP do not have to witness how Ace dies without Ace's death there will be no time skip Luffy wouldn't experience the trauma that would cause rley to advise
him to wait 2 years for a reunion with his crew and this plays a crucial change in the story Luffy and the straw hats did not have the training that the two years allowed them to do but how different would it be without the time skip the original plan was to meet again after 3 days to travel to Fishman Island and that's exactly what happened Straw Hat Pirates meet again on Sai after 3 days they travel to Fishman Island now what would happen on the adventure of the straw hat pirates in the new world after
reaching Fishman Island the straw hat Pirates would continue on their adventure with a slight difference you see in the original series the straw hat Pirates would have a fight on this island but in this timeline there would be no conflict since the island was still protected by the Whitebeard Pirates also we can assume that jinbe is still a shii bukai so he couldn't make a promise for Luffy to become one of them what's even more mind-blowing is that Luffy won't challenge big mom here and when it comes to punk Hazard as U is still the
fleet Admiral there will be no fight between Kuan and sakazuki meanwhile law will still be there to contact Luffy the goal and plan will still be the same we all know that Luffy's goal is to become the king of pirates and to do that he must face all the yonko as for Caesar Clown he will still be captured by law in dress Rosa things will not be boring like Punk Hazard that's because Luffy won't meet Sabo and cannot build a grand Fleet since there would be no fight in the K Coliseum without hockey Luffy will
be easily defeated by do Flamingo even with Law's help seeing that in a way do Flamingo is basically overpowered if no one can counter him with hockey knowing that do Flamingo awakened his devil fruit power the straw hat and heart Pirates wouldn't stand a chance against him there's a chance that Luffy would know hockey at this point but it won't be as strong or proficient compared to when reallyy taught him now after being defeated this is where Luffy's Redemption Arc would come into play after escaping with the straw hats Luffy rethinks his plan and proposes
a training session to be ready for the next fight to come a time skip would naturally occur with Luffy training to grow stronger with his hockey and devil fruit power it is also a possibility that he might use the yummy yummy no me in some completely different way with enough training however that might be a mystery one can assume being much stronger after a few years time skip Luffy would continue his journey and eventually challenge do Flamingo once again in a heated battle and that's not even mentioning the other opponents that he will eventually face
off in the future such as kaido Luffy would have to get much stronger with new abilities and forms similar to gear 5 in the original series if he wants to become pirate king but that's a what if video for another time if you like this video smash that like button subscribe and click the notification Bell for more one piece content
