The universe of One Piececreated by Eiichiro Oda, is vast and full of incredibly powerful characters, each with unique skills, striking stories and fundamental roles in the plot. Although the debate on strength is common among fans, some names are practically consensus when it comes to gross power, battle skill and narrative impact.
Next, we list 10 of One Piece’s strongest characterswith a brief biography and justifications for your presence on the list.
One Piece: More powerful characters
Luffy (Monkey D. Luffy)
- Yonkou, Captain of the Straw Hats
- Powers: Gomu Gomu no mi (or hito hito no mi, model Nika – mythological paramecia), Haki Advanced
Protagonist of the story, Luffy has always demonstrated an unshakable confidence. After the awakening of its fruit and the mastery of the three types of Haki, it reached the level of a Yonkou. In the form of Nika, his resilience, creativity and comic power-divin make him an unpredictable threat.
In addition to all this, Luffy has the most dangerous power of seas: the ability to turn enemies into allies. Your charisma is so strong that it conquers even old rivals.
White Beard (Edward Newgate)
- Ex-Yonkou, Captain of the White Beard Pirates
- Powers: Gura Gura no Mi (earthquakes), Advanced Haki
He was considered “the strongest man in the world” before Kaido. Even sick and severely injured, it caused massive destruction in Marineford. With his Akuma in Mi, he was able to cause devastating earthquakes – his power, according to Sengoku, was enough to destroy the world.
Sengoku
- Former Marine Fleet
- Powers: ZOAN mythological (hito hito no mi, model Buddha), Haki
He led the navy during the most turbulent era, facing Gol D. Roger, White Beard and others. Its transformation into Buddha grants powerful shock attacks and great resistance.
Big Mom
- Yonkou, Big Mom Pirates Captain
- Powers: Soru Soru in Mi (handling of souls), monstrous physical strength
Charlotte Linlin, or Big Mom, is one of the most feared characters in the world. His control over souls and the creation of homies as Prometheus and Zeus expand their power in combat. It combines brutality with strategy, being almost indestructible.
Shanks
- Yonkou, Captain of the Ruivo Pirates
- Powers: Haki from the extremely developed king
Even without a devil’s fruit and only one arm, Shanks imposes respect only on his Haki. Its simple presence intimidates admirals and other large pits. He was able to stop Marineford’s war just by appearing.
Black Beard (Marshall D. Teach)
- Yonkou, captain of the Black Beard Pirates
- Powers: Yami Yami No Mi (Gravity/Darkness), Gura Gura no Mi (earthquakes)
The only character to have two devil fruits, both extremely destructive. Black beard is mysterious and represents chaos and gross power, and is still on the rise as a global threat. Winned D. Ace and a fierce battle.

Akaini (Sakazuki)
- Fleet Admiral
- Powers: MAGU MAGU IN MI (MAGM), HAKI POWERFUL
His coldness and absolute conviction in “absolute justice” make him relentless. It was he who killed Ace and defeated Aokiji. Your magma is able to melt virtually anything, including the ice of another admiral. One of the most fearsome characters in the whole work.
Garp (Monkey D. Garp)
- Vice Admiral Legendary of the Navy
- Powers: Legendary physical strength, weaponry haki
Luffy’s grandfather, Garp is possibly the character with the greatest physical strength of the work. Even without a devil’s fruit, he is known as the “Navy Hero” and Rival of Gol D. Roger. Recently, he faced the crew of even old black beard, proving that his strength remains legendary.
Dracule Mihawk
- The largest swordsman in the world
- Powers: Extreme ability with the sword, Haki
Zoro’s biggest obstacle on his journey. Winning Mihawk seems almost impossible. He is considered the supreme swordsman and has rivaling Shanks in the past. Its accuracy and cutting power are incomparable, being feared even by the Yonkou.
Kaido
- Yonkou, Captain of the Pirates of the Beasts
- Powers: Mythological zoan (uo no mi, dragon model), advanced Haki and physical strength
Known as the “strongest creature in the world,” Kaido is practically invincible. He survived numerous attempts to execute and fell from the sky several times without dying. His resistance, attack power and transformation into a huge dragon make him a force of nature.
Honorable mentions
Although they have not shown all their power, certain characters are recognized as figures of immense potential. When (or if) they fight seriously, they should enter the top of the list:
- Monkey D. Dragon – Leader of the Revolutionary Army and Luffy’s father. It is still a puzzle, but it is feared even by the world government.

- Rocks D. Xebec – Former captain of Kaido, Big Mom and White Beard. He faced Roger and Garp together.
- Gol D. Roger – The king of the pirates. Even without the devil’s fruit, he conquered the world with pure Haki.
