The narrative ofOne Piecehas frequently pointed out the fact that Shanks’ crew is the only Emperor crew in the series who do not possess any kind of Devil Fruit abilities. He has reached such great heights in the Pirate world only because of his Haki abilities. This is indeed an incredible feat, and no other crew has been able to do this.
However, there is a theory going online that states that Shanks might have a Devil Fruit, and it has been kept a secret from theOne Piecefans. The fruit not only provides him with basic Devil Fruit powers but also helps him with his strongest Haki ability. This Haki ability is called Future Sight, and it is the advanced version of Observation Haki.
According to the theory, the Devil Fruit is called the Time-Time Fruit, and it was previously used by Kozuki Toki, the deceased wife of Oden and the mother of Momonosuke and Hiyori. Earlier fans believed that the Devil Fruit might have been inherited by her daughter Hiyori.
The Rare Power of Time-Time Devil Fruit inOne Piece
The Time-Time Devil Fruit has only been used twice in theOne Pieceanime and manga. Both times, the powers of the mysterious Devil Fruit have been used by Kozuki Toki, the former user of the Devil Fruit. As the name suggests, his fruit allows users to travel forward in time and escape any imminent danger that they might be facing in the current timeline.

Whilethe power of this Devil Fruitlooks interesting, it also has quite a lot of drawbacks. The biggest drawback is that the power only allows its users to travel forward in time, and once they do, they cannot go back in time. Another major issue is that although it moves the user forward, they tend to land in the exact same place from where they started.
When Toki died during the beginning of the Wano arc, fans were eager to find out who would gain her Devil Fruit. Many believed that the perfect user for this Devil Fruit would be her daughter, Kozuki Hiyori and that it would include a nice twist in the Wano arc. However,Eiichiro Odahas kept the fruit’s location a secret forOne Piecefans.
Fan Theory Claims Shanks Currently Possess the Time-Time Devil Fruit
According to a theory posted on Reddit, Shanks might be the current user of the Time-Time Devil Fruit, and he has kept it a secret from the entire world. The theory was posted byu/SignificantMidnight7, and it states that Shanks used this Devil Fruit to help him enhance his Future Sight Haki ability.
Future Sight is the advanced version of Observation Haki, and it allows the user to predict an attack by looking into the future for a very short time. It is the rarest form of observation Haki and to date, only four characters have been able to use it. Among those, the strongest user of Future Sight is Shanks.
One Piece Theory Might Finally Explain the True Reason Behind Devil Fruits That Debunks Vegapunk’s Widely Accepted Idea
As the full potential of the Time-Time Devil Fruit has not been revealed, there is a chance that Shanks might be able to use it to just look into the future, making his Future Sight better than everyone else. However, there is no evidence to support this theory, and more details about Shanks’ true power will only be revealed when he finally takes the central stage inOne Piece.
