10 Strongest Characters in One Piece

Top 10 Strongest Characters in One Piece Ranking

Throughout its 20-year journey of development, One Piece has introduced numerous characters with incredibly formidable powers. Therefore, many fans wonder who the strongest character in One Piece truly is, and whether it is Luffy.

10. Former Admiral Aokiji Kuzan

 

Strengths: Devil Fruit, Haki, Physical Strength

Kuzan is a former Admiral of the Marines and possesses an incredibly strong sense of honor. He made a promise not to attack the Straw Hat Pirates after his 1-on-1 battle with Luffy, and he has kept that promise. Disgusted by the ruthless actions of Sakazuki (Akainu), Kuzan chose to resign rather than serve under him after their intense duel. After leaving the Marines, Kuzan roamed the New World and eventually joined the Blackbeard Pirates, becoming one of the Ten Captains of the Yonko’s crew.

Trained by Garp, Kuzan has overall superior strength. He also possesses the Hie Hie no Mi Devil Fruit, which grants him the ability to create and control ice at will. One of his most impressive scenes is not a display of brute force, but rather riding a bicycle on the ocean, freezing the sea wherever he goes. Kuzan was even voted as the 25th most popular character in One Piece due to his personality and power.

9. Monkey D. Garp

Strengths: Haki, Inhuman Physical Abilities

Monkey D. Garp is an extremely famous Vice Admiral of the Marines and the grandfather of the main protagonist of the One Piece anime, Luffy. Garp possesses extraordinary physical strength, surpassing most other Marine admirals despite being a Vice Admiral. He is also known as the “Hero of the Marine Headquarters” due to his efforts in the God Valley incident.

He is a legendary Marine who has clashed with the former Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, numerous times. Garp does not possess any Devil Fruit powers. Roger himself revealed that he and Garp nearly killed each other on multiple occasions. Garp’s Haki is also incredibly strong, to the point where he could destroy mountains just for Haki training during his prime.

8. The Five Elders

Strengths: Devil Fruits, Immortality (Possibly), Haki

The Five Elders are the highest-ranking individuals within the World Government. They are the heads of the Gorosei and hold immense power and authority. While their individual strengths have not been fully revealed, it is believed that they possess powerful Devil Fruits, potentially immortality, and formidable Haki abilities.

7. Dracule Mihawk

Strengths: Swordsmanship, Haki

Dracule Mihawk, also known as “Hawk-Eye,” was once one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, a group of notorious pirates allied with the World Government. However, after the dissolution of the system, he became a wanted man once again. Mihawk holds the title of “World’s Strongest Swordsman” and is one of the few characters to possess the Great Grade Sword known as Yoru.

Mihawk has clashed with Red-Haired Shanks in a battle that shook the entire Grand Line. He has achieved numerous feats and was renowned as the “Pirate Hunter” with a bounty of 3.6 billion Berries. In addition to his mastery of “Supreme Swordsmanship,” Mihawk possesses exceptional proficiency in both Observation Haki and Armament Haki. It is said that nothing can escape the gaze of the “Hawk-Eye” due to his extraordinary Observation Haki, which bears a clear resemblance to his Kenbunshoku Haki. To this day, no character has been able to gauge Mihawk’s true power, but it may not be long before his own disciple poses a challenge.

6. Monkey D. Dragon

Strengths: Devil Fruit (possible), Haki

Monkey D. Dragon is the leader of the Revolutionary Army. Nobody knows why he founded the Revolutionary Army when his father was a Marine, but many fans believe that he recognized the flaws and wrongdoing of the World Government, inspiring him to stand up against it.

Although the One Piece anime has progressed significantly, Dragon has yet to engage in any major battles, making it difficult to accurately assess his true strength. Several details in the manga suggest that Dragon’s abilities may rival those of an Admiral or a Yonko commander.

5. Akainu

Strengths: Haki, Devil Fruit, Regenerative Ability

Akainu became the Fleet Admiral of the Marines after defeating Aokiji at Punk Hazard. He firmly believes in absolute justice and is willing to go anywhere in the world to ensure its enforcement. Due to his extreme actions, Kuzan has even referred to him as a “fool.”

Akainu consumed the Magu Magu no Mi Devil Fruit, granting him the power to create and control magma. It is no exaggeration to call it the most powerful offensive Devil Fruit. He can withstand numerous attacks from Whitebeard, demonstrating the tremendous extent of his power.

4. Monkey D. Luffy

Strengths: Haki, Devil Fruit

Monkey D. Luffy is the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates. His dream is to become the Pirate King and usher in a new era. He consumed the Gomu Gomu no Mi Devil Fruit, granting him the ability to stretch his body like rubber. Currently, Luffy is proficient in all three types of Haki.

Luffy defeated Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, by combining his awakened Devil Fruit powers with the Conqueror’s Haki. This victory not only showcased Luffy’s strength and potential but also prompted the World Government to increase his bounty to 3 billion Berries.

3. Blackbeard

Strengths: Multiple Devil Fruits, Haki

Considered by many as the ultimate antagonist in the series, Blackbeard is undoubtedly one of the most powerful characters in One Piece. He is the only person known to possess two Devil Fruits.

The first is the Yami Yami no Mi, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows him to nullify the powers of other Devil Fruits and manipulate darkness. His second Devil Fruit is the Gura Gura no Mi, which grants him the ability to create earthquakes anywhere. The second Devil Fruit significantly enhances his power and is believed to possess the potential to destroy the world.

2. Red-Haired Shanks

Strengths: Supreme Haki

Shanks is the captain of the Red Hair Pirates. To this day, he is the only Yonko known to have no Devil Fruit powers. Shanks relies solely on his Haki for combat. Naturally, he has mastered Haki to the point of being invincible.

The true extent of Shanks’ power remains unknown, but considering his ability to ward off characters like Kaido and Akainu without any issues, there is no doubt about his capabilities.

Shanks has demonstrated the overwhelming power of Supreme Haki, even instilling fear in Ryokugyu. In the movie One Piece Film: Red, Shanks used his Haki to repel the entire Marine force, leaving only the Admirals standing, a testament to his formidable strength.

1. Imu (Im-sama)

Strengths: Haki

Imu is the head of the World Government and is believed to be the most powerful character in One Piece. Imu is extremely mysterious, and no one knows if they possess any powers or have eaten a Devil Fruit. However, it seems that Imu possesses some kind of ability/weapon that allows them to instantly destroy the country of Lulusia.

Furthermore, Imu can sit on the Empty Throne, a seat that none of the 19 founding kings of the World Government have ever sat on. Their power and gender remain a secret to this day. However, a character capable of making the Five Elders bow down and address them as “Im-sama” must undoubtedly possess immense power.

These are the strongest characters in One Piece who are still alive as of the current timeline. With the mind of author Oda, Hobiverse believes that the series will go even further and bring forth new and unfamiliar storylines to serve the readers. Don’t forget to watch the movie One Piece Film: Red to support author Oda.
