The easiest way to get a Cursed Fruit (Grand Blue’s version of a Devil Fruit) early on is to complete Almighty Calvin’s “Wizards Apprentice” quest in Anchor Town, which rewards you with Calvin’s Treasure.
If you’ve been hunting for a Devil Fruit in Grand Blue and coming up empty, the fruit you’re after is called a Cursed Fruit in-game — and there’s a clean starter route that skips all the luck. It runs through a single early quest in Anchor Town, and it’s built for players who just booted the game up. Here’s the whole thing, plus the other ways to grab a Cursed Fruit once you’re settled in.
What Cursed Fruits are in Grand Blue
Cursed Fruits are Grand Blue’s take on the classic Devil Fruit — same idea, different name. Eat one and it permanently grafts a unique combat ability set onto your character, boosting your damage and utility for the rest of that save.
Key Because the effect is permanent, players tend to treat the first fruit like a big decision. The good news is that getting your hands on one doesn’t have to be a grind: the Wizards Apprentice quest is the simplest starting route, and it’s the one to run before you worry about chests, traders, or island luck.
How to get a Cursed Fruit with Almighty Calvin’s dig quest
This is the beginner-friendly route — you’ll pick up a quest in Anchor Town, dig a few things up, and walk away with Calvin’s Treasure.
STEP 1/4
Find Almighty Calvin in Anchor Town
Travel to Anchor Town and head up to the raised stone platforms behind the houses, where the NPC Almighty Calvin is standing.
STEP 2/4
Take the quest and grab the Rusty Shovel
Talk to Almighty Calvin to start the Wizards Apprentice quest, then pick up the Rusty Shovel that sits on the ground right below his platform.
STEP 3/4
Dig up the buried objects
Follow the quest markers and dig up the hidden objects the Wizards Apprentice quest points you to.
STEP 4/4
Return and open Calvin’s Treasure
Head back to Almighty Calvin to complete the quest, receive Calvin’s Treasure, and open it from your inventory to collect the reward.
If a dig spot glitches and won’t let you dig, hit it with a Strong Punch first to reset it, then try digging again.

Other ways to get a Cursed Fruit
| Method | What to know |
|---|---|
| Wizards Apprentice quest | Complete Almighty Calvin’s dig quest in Anchor Town for Calvin’s Treasure — the fastest early route. |
| Fruit Chests | Buy Fruit Chests with in-game money; different chest types cost more and hand out different numbers of Cursed Fruits. |
| Fruit Trader NPC | Buy a Cursed Fruit straight from the Fruit Trader once you can reach one and afford it. |
| Exploring islands | Sail out and search islands for Cursed Fruits that spawn at random — the slowest, luckiest option. |
The quest is the fastest early route, but it isn’t the only source. Once you’re moving around the map, three more methods open up — all of them slower or more luck-based than Calvin’s quest, but worth knowing when you want a second or third fruit.
Between them, Fruit Chests and the Fruit Trader give you the most control, while island exploration is pure RNG — handy to keep an eye out for while you’re traveling, but not something to rely on.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any Grand Blue codes that give a free Cursed Fruit?
Grand Blue does have at least one active code right now (such as Release), so it’s worth checking the current code list and redeeming what’s live. That said, codes generally hand out small boosts rather than a free Cursed Fruit outright, so don’t count on one to simply give you a fruit — the quest above is still your most reliable early route.
Can you remove, switch, or reroll a Cursed Fruit after eating it?
There’s no documented way to remove, swap, or reroll a Cursed Fruit once you’ve consumed it — the ability set binds to your character, so it’s worth deciding which fruit you actually want before you eat one.
