Why the Devil Fruit is a power awakened 800 years ago
Imu's Akuma no Mi is incredibly lethal, but here's why it's truly dangerous. it is the power awakened. The awakening indicator of Imu's power is evident in the black cloud around his neck. In general, black clouds indicate the awakening of powers related to the world government. Rob Lucci and Kaku possessed this black cloud when they awakened their Devil Fruit. Likewise, in the Egghead Arc, all five Elder Yokai also possessed this black cloud, signifying their Devil Fruit awakening.
Awakening is what happens when the user's mind and body catch up with their abilities. — Kaido, Wano Country
In addition, Shamrock Pigaland, which appeared in the Elbaf Arc, also showed the power of Cerberus with this cloud, suggesting the use of an extremely high awakening level. Imu's awakening cloud has become more sophisticated. And it is more complex than the others, which indicates that his power has surpassed all limits. Moreover, his fruit directly affects the surrounding environment, which is a sign of Paramecia Awakening. Just as Luffy can turn his surroundings into rubber, Imu turns his environment into a manifestation of the devil itself, something that was clearly shown when he descended on Elbaph.
It should also be noted that this is the first time that an Imu has descended on the lower world since the world government was established 800 years ago. Therefore, it can be inferred as follows. In the Void Century, Imu awakened the Devil Fruit.. Thanks to the awakening of this Devil Fruit long ago, Imu was able to fight against threats like Joy Boy and Davy D. Jones. Both were powerful pirates in their own right.

Potential of this ability
Imu's Awakening Akuma no Mi possesses tremendous abilities, the full extent of which is unknown until now. In fact, it is highly unlikely that the now greatly weakened Imu will ever show up to his full potential on the side of the Wano Kingdom, as evidenced by the fact that he spat out blood upon arriving in the Land of Giants. Despite this, there's very little he's shown so far through Awakened Akuma no Me. Already, Imu can grant demonic powers to others, such as immortality, regeneration, and superhuman strength.
Imu can also possess other people as vessels.And even more so, he can turn entire countries into manifestations of the devil himself. Using the power of the grimoire, Imu can cast a variety of spells that can do anything, including making two people hate each other until the end of time. The imu can also use magic to shorten its lifespan and produce deadly weapons. Clearly, this awakened Devil Fruit ability goes beyond any understanding of the power system that fans once knew, which is why it is Void Century's most powerful ability.
