Fruit of the Tree of Might

The Fruit of the Tree of Might is a light orange fruit resembling a cross between a durian and a lychee. It grows on the Tree of Might, a colossal parasitic plant that absorbs the life energy of whatever planet its seed is planted on. The tree requires such an enormous amount of energy that few, if any, planets can sustain its growth without dying in the process. Despite this destructive nature, the tree itself is not inherently evil; it simply demands resources on a scale that no normal world can provide.

According to King Kai, the fruit was originally intended to be consumed only by the gods. Eating it grants an immediate and dramatic power increase. When the rogue Saiyan Turles consumed the fruit during his battle with Goku, his power level multiplied more than fifteen times over, giving him a devastating advantage. The physical effects are also dramatic: the consumer's muscle mass increases instantly before their body proportionally adjusts to maintain speed and agility.

Limitations and Dangers

While a single fruit provides an enormous boost, consuming too many in rapid succession is self-destructive. Eating three fruits within a short time span causes severe physical damage, greatly weakening the consumer rather than strengthening them. In Dragon Ball Legends, the villain Frost learned this lesson painfully when he overindulged in imperfect artificial versions of the fruit.

In the Super Dragon Ball Heroes storyline, consuming enough fruit allowed Turles to achieve the Evil Saiyan state, a dark transformation powered by the combined influence of the fruit and negative energy. The fruit has also been artificially reproduced, with Dr. Gero creating synthetic versions during the Tournament of Time, though the early batches were imperfect and carried the dangerous overconsumption risk.
