[Music] how's it going everybody 2spooky here and today is the day I finally bring you the long-awaited and highly anticipated new one-piece top 10 I'm extremely sorry that this video here took so long to come out in my previous one-piece top 10 I did save this video wouldn't be coming out for quite a while but when I said quite a while what I actually meant was like one or two months tops now Here I am releasing this video four months later so I'm incredibly sorry that this video took so long to come out but hopefully this video will end up being worth the wait so with that today we're going to be counting down the top 10 strongest characters in one piece now there are a ton of things we are going to cover in this list and that means there are also a lot of things you guys should keep in mind before we actually jump into it the first thing you need to know is that my pronunciation is god-awful so I will more than likely mispronounce multiple names or phrases the second thing you need to know is that this list will be based on how strong these characters are overall so what we're going to be doing is we are going to be looking at their physical abilities their ability to use haki and how effective their hockey is their intelligence their notable connections or alliances with other characters and organizations they are devil fruit abilities if they have a double fruit and a few other random aspects as well because personally I believe each of these characteristics are very important in deciding which of these characters are indeed the strongest in one piece the third thing you need to know is that there are so many strong characters in one piece so many in fact that condensing all of these powerful characters into a single top 10 list would be near impossible for me to do so to make it easier on myself I've created a list of conditions that a character needs to meet to be eligible to be on this list in the first place and these conditions are as follows the first is that these characters need to be currently alive in the story so characters such as white beard Goldie Roger and ace will not be on this list the second is that these characters need to be in their prime or very close to it so characters such as Railay Sengoku and GARP will not be on this list as well and the final condition is that we need to know a decent amount of information about these characters and their abilities so characters we know little to nothing about can't be on this list simply because we don't have enough information to truly confirm they are one of the strongest now I can say without a doubt that a character such as monkey dee dragon is a very powerful character in the one-piece world but we know very little about him and as of right now we know nothing about his abilities so although I believe dragon would be one of the 10 strongest one-piece characters we just simply don't know enough about him or his abilities to place him on this list accurately so instead of making a fool of myself I decided it's best to just keep him off the list entirely however also keep in mind that there will be a few exceptions to this rule on the list so in regards to this condition characters such as monkey dee dragon the Goro say Basil Hawkins uruj and ex Drake will not be on this list and the final thing you need to know about before we get into the list is that the way I will be formatting this top 10 is by starting each character off with a detailed description about everything you need to know about the character in question and then giving my personal analysis on the information I just relayed to you so there will be a few instances where I sound like I'm repeating myself also we will be covering a lot of information for each character so be prepared for a lot of knowledge being thrown your way but of course we won't be covering everything just the things I think are most important in determining how powerful these characters really are and finally now that you know what to expect let's begin number 10 monkey dee Luffy I'm sure most of you are fully aware of Luffy's abilities because he is the main character after all but for the sake of keeping this list somewhat professional I'm going to be going over all of his notable qualities anyway and I want to say sorry in advance because we are going to be covering a lot of information about Luffy so now might be the time to go grab some snacks so the very first thing we are going to go over is his physical abilities without the use of his devil fruit considering that Luffy is the main character of the series it is no surprise to hear that he has an enormous amount of physical strength to the point where he can easily live - and Shatter large boulders push buildings apart and shatter steel easily with his hands additionally he can easily flip over and throw big men who are over twice the size of himself and a luffy himself has also said that due to his training with his grandfather GARP as a kid he has been able to throw a punch as powerful as a pistol round since he was seven years old which if that's as strong as his fists were then I can't even begin to think of what we could compare them to now Luffy also has incredible speed to the point where he can easily anticipate his enemy's movements and in turn counter their attacks and even though Luffy's normal speed is nothing special on its own it is multiplied greatly with the use of his gear second technique but we'll talk about that in a minute luffy also has amazing durability and endurance being able to endure a ton of powerful attacks from his enemies and still continue to fight some of the attacks he's endured would easily kill a normal person and of course a lot of this is due to the help he gets from being a rubber man but for instance he is able to take on these same deadly attacks while they are imbued with haki that bypass his devil fruit powers and yet he can still get back up to fight the best example of Luffy's endurance would be his fight with cracker where luffy fought him for 11 hours straight using techniques such as gear forth that really eat up his energy and he was still able to defeat cracker by a small margin but it doesn't even stop there luffy was also able to withstand attacks from Sanji shortly after his fierce battle with cracker and then shortly after this encounter with Sanji Luffy managed to defeat most of big mobs army that went after him before he was finally taken down which is absolutely insane another unique ability Luffy has developed is his immunity to poison due to Luffy surviving the poison from Magellan's Doku Doku know me because of this there has currently not been a poison shown to affect Luffy very much at all next let's talk about Luffy's intelligence or should I say lack of don't get me wrong Luffy isn't stupid by any means but he is also by no means one of the smarter characters in the series and he is without a doubt one of if not the least in challenging character that will be featured on this list Luffy has a very broad imagination and is very creative especially with his devil fruit he has great social skills which is great for making new friends and recruiting allies even if he doesn't mean to and he's very good at achieving the impossible simply because he can easily think of a way to achieve these tasks however usually Luffy tends to think of the worst possible way to go about it which in turn causes a ton of problems and destruction for anyone involved and often gets himself and his crew into some pretty detrimental situations so intelligence isn't really one of his strong suits Luffy also has a very strong sense of willpower but we'll talk more about that in a second when it comes to haki Luffy is one of the more prominent users currently the main reason for this is because Luffy is one of the few characters that can utilize all three types of hockey he is also currently one of the only six living characters that can use conquerors haki at least from what is revealed so far the simple way of explaining what exactly conquerors haki does is that the user basically exerts their willpower on to individuals who have weak wills to render them unconscious although individuals who have a stronger sense of willpower will remain unaffected and because Luffy has one of the most prominent senses of willpower in the series his conquerors haki is almost unmatched for instance during his battle with the new Fishman pirates he used his conquerors haki to take out 50,000 men at once just try and comprehend how many people that actually is Luffy can also utilize observation haki which allows the user to sense the presence of others even if they are very far away this in turn allows the user to mindlessly predict an opponent's movements moments before they make them allowing Luffy to easily dodge attacks before they strike and even dodge a bullet at point-blank range allowing Luffy to have a great advantage against his opponents unless they have an unpredictable fighting style and finally Luffy can also use armament haki and he's very proficient with it - basically what armament haki consists of is an individual uses their spirit lifeforce to create an invisible armor around themselves or specific parts of the users it of course can not only be used as a means of defense but also as a weapon because the armor is just so strong luffy's use of armament haki greatly strengthens his normal attacks but also strengthens the techniques created from his devil fruit along with creating some new ones although we'll cover his devil fruit abilities in a minute Luffy would not be able to use his Red Hawk technique without armament haki because somehow between gear ii and his hockey luffy found a way to ignite this attack to create both fire and an explosion along with that without the use of haki luffy would not be able to access his technique gear forth so bottom line Luffy's haki is something you definitely don't want to mess with even if the person up against him is also a prominent haki user next up let's talk about Luffy's devil fruit which is the gomu gomu no me otherwise known as the gum gum fruit which gives Luffy's body the property of rubber making him a rubber man this fruit allows Luffy to stretch any part of his body like rubber and because Luffy is a rubber man this makes him immune to pretty much all blunt attacks including but not limited to cannonballs and bullets blunt objects hand-to-hand combat falls from very high places and with the addition of his armament haki this defense is even harder to bypass however if his opponent were to use armament haki against luffy when he himself isn't using it to defend himself they can bypass his immunity for a direct hit although Luffy is immune to blunt attacks he is weak to slashing attacks such as swords this fruit is also the natural weakness of the Goro Goro no me being able to attack this specific electric logia user without the use of hockey and is completely immune to the electrical attacks making the gomu gomu no me far superior one of Luffy's best characteristics would be his creativity when it comes to his devil fruit and through this creativity he has created a ton of techniques I won't be going through all of them just because there are so so many but I will be going over the most notable or recognizable it should also be noted that a lot of these techniques would only be useful at close range but because Luffy is able to stretch his body and limbs these attacks can all so easily become mid to long range attacks so no matter where you are you won't be able to escape Luffy's attacks Luffy signature technique is the gumgum pistol allowing him to deliver a very powerful punch as strong as a pistol the gumgum rocket which is Luffy's main method of traveling great distances quickly by grabbing onto an object stretching his arm back and flinging himself away kind of like a slingshot the gumgum bazooka where Luffy stretches both of his arms back a decent distance before propelling both of these arms into his opponents with palms open to send them flying with great force the gumgum Gatling where Luffy sends out a massive barrage of constant powerful punches from seemingly every direction all at once the gumgum rifle where loopy twists his arm while he stretches it and once his arm stretches forward and makes contact with the enemy his arm on twists to create more force along with allowing Luffy to perform this attack quicker than others because the twisting of his arm also means Luffy doesn't need to stretch it back as far as other techniques the gum gum balloon where Luffy inflates himself like a balloon to further soften blunt attacks or to even return projectiles back at enemies such as cannonballs this technique can also be used for a number of different scenarios and the gum gum Bell where Luffy stretches his neck back a considerable distance before flinging it back to create a devastating headbutt each of these techniques are very powerful and useful by themselves but Luffy can also imbue them with armament haki to create an even more devastating attack now that we know a bit about luffy's normal techniques let's look at each of his gear techniques the first one or should I say second is called gear second this technique allows Luffy to speed up the blood flow in his entire body or select limbs which provide them with more oxygen and nutrients providing more blood flow allows Luffy to become temporarily much faster and a little bit stronger as long as the technique is active however this technique does take a toll on Luffy's body essentially shortening his life bit by bit the more he uses it so because of that it does have a big drawback although after the time-skip I imagine Luffy has managed to perfect this too to the point where it affects his body less or doesn't affect him at all because gear ii allows luffy to be both faster and stronger it opens luffy to a whole new plethora of techniques these techniques are strengthened with both speed and a little bit of strength giving them the new edition of jet in their name so a lot of the techniques we just discussed in conjunction with gear ii are known as jet pistol jet bazooka jet Gatling and so on additionally luffy can also add armament haki to his techniques while in gear ii making for even more powerful attacks and with the addition of this haki luffy also gains access to a new range of abilities involving fire somehow what the steam gear ii produces luffy is able to ignite his limbs so long as they are coated in armament haki that way he doesn't get burned these techniques are known as gumgum Red Hawk which is a flaming much more powerful version of the gumgum jet pistol the gumgum hawk Gatling which is a stronger flaming version of gumgum jet Gatling the gumgum hawk rifle which is a stronger flaming version of the gumgum jet rifle and the gumgum Eagle bazooka which is a flaming stronger version of the gumgum jet bazooka and that pretty much does it for gear ii so let's move on to the next one which is gear third this technique consists of Luffy biting a small opening into his thumb joint and then blowing air into that opening to inflate specific parts of his body when one or more of his limbs are inflated they are so big that they resemble the size of a giant slim which because his limbs are so big it ends up increasing the mass of that specific area on his body which creates a larger area to attack with including the addition of far greater strength and there's a possibility you might think this sounds a bit similar to his gum gum balloon technique but the difference is is with gum gum balloon Luffy is just sucking in a bunch of air which expands his body or his lungs until he exhales whereas gear third instead blows this air directly into his bones which even though they can stretch they still maintain the strong nature of the bones themselves and although this attack is very powerful it does have a downfall which is mobility so Luffy generally only uses it when he draw strength opposed to speed but it's not as bad as it sounds because after the time skip Luffy has managed to direct or select where the air is kept in his limbs so now Luffy can still stretch his arms while they are inflated and maneuver them much better than he could before the time-skip as you probably already know gear 3rd opens up Luffy to a whole new range of abilities or much like gear 2nd some big improvements to his regular techniques emphasis on big such as the gumgum giant pistol which is basically the regular gumgum pistol except with a gigantic fist flying at you instead the gumgum giant bazooka which is basically the regular gumgum bazooka except you know much much bigger I think you guys get the idea what the rest are like because they're all just gigantic versions of his normal techniques Luffy also has the capability of mixing gear second with gear third to create the gumgum giant jet shell which is where he inflates his body with gear third while keeping up his gear second to ram his whole body into his opponent with both immense strength and speed in the shape of a cannonball now although this technique is very very powerful it is also rather dangerous because it puts double the strain on Luffy's body and restricts his movements so if he fails to land this technique it could very well be game over for him in addition to that Luffy can also enhance his gear third techniques with armament haki to create some extremely powerful techniques a few examples of these techniques are the gumgum elephant gun which is a hockey a mewed version of the gumgum giant pistol the gumgum elephant gallon which is the hockey imbued gear third version of the regular gumgum Gatling and the gumgum grizzly magnum which is essentially the gumgum giant bazooka imbued with hockey and each of these techniques are definitely some of luffy's most powerful so they should not be taken lightly and that pretty much wraps it up for gear 3rd so let's look at his currently last gear gear fourth this technique currently has two different forms which are bound van and tank man but we'll talk about bound man first so to activate this technique Luffy first covers his arm with armament haki and then blows air into it however instead of inflating his bones like with gear third he instead inflates his muscles and then if the rest of his body as well similar to how gear ii constantly emits steam from luffy's body this form does as well and because of that luffy is incapable of standing still and needs to constantly bounce while in this form luffy strength and speed are increased drastically and in a way it utilizes both gear ii and gear third into one massive powerhouse because you see what gear ii lacks is strength and what gear third lacks is speed so when luffy mixes the two to create gear fourth he is almost unstoppable because he is both insanely fast and insanely strong also gear fourth gives luffy amazing defensive capabilities because even though his body is hardened with haki he still remains rubbery which allows attacks to bounce right off of him so now Luffy can even counteract his weakness of sharp objects with this technique because his body is hard enough to stop it from piercing him and yet he is still elastic to the point where any attack will just bounce right off of him also with this technique Luffy can bounce off of the air similar to gecko and move so fast he seemingly disappears like suru although this technique gives luffy some amazing abilities this form does have two downfalls the first is that many of his techniques require luffy to compress rather than stretch which means many of these techniques will only work at close range and the second downfall is that this technique can only be used for a short amount of time and after that time is up luffy is barely able to move his body so if he doesn't get the job done before gear 4th deactivates he's pretty much done for as you can guess gear 4th comes with a few new and powerful techniques such as the gumgum kong gun which is where luffy compresses his hand into his forearm and then unleashes an insanely powerful short ranged punch the gumgum rhino Schneider which is where Luffy compresses both of his feet into his shins to then release a double kick powerful enough to send some of the strongest enemies flying the gumgum culverin which is where Luke Lee sends out a punch similar to the gumgum pistol however this one is very different this is one of the only techniques in gear 4th that stretches instead of compresses but unlike his regular gumgum pistol punch this punch will continue to redirect itself until it finally makes contact with his target no matter how many times it takes there is just no escape and the gumgum king kong gun which essentially is the normal kong gun except this time around luffy blows even more air into his arms similar to gear 3rd to deliver an enormous compressed punch and in my opinion I think this is probably currently luffy's most powerful attack now moving on to the second gear 4th form which is called tank man full version this form was achieved after luffy ate a tremendous amount of biscuits to the point where he was extremely round and bloated apparently this form also drastically increases Luffy's durability because beforehand while luffy was in his bound a man form against cracker he almost got his arm cut off by crackers sword but after moving to tank man cracker sword was unable to pierce Luffy at all this form also brought forth one new technique called gum gum cannon ball which is where Luffy compresses his stomach along with sucking the enemy into his compression then launches them a great distance away with a tremendous amount of power and speed but that does it for all of Luffy's devil fruit abilities so let's look at his notable relationships connections and allies and let me just add that Luffy has a ton of different allies so I will try and to briefly touch upon the important ones the first group we need to talk about is his own crew Luffy has some of the strongest and smartest pirates on his side which helped him out in a number of different situations generally Luffy tends to fight his battles on his own but when needed Luffy and his crew make a great team when it comes to taking down tough foes additionally without them Luffy without a doubt would have never made it as far as he has and without them Luffy without a doubt would never be able to become the Pirate King Luffy also has a fleet of pirate crews backing him these crews are the beautiful pirates led by Cavendish the Bartow Club led by Bartolomeo the tanta corpse led by Leo the happene V led by sy the martial arts alliance led by IDO the new giant warrior pirates led by Harden and the yan Tom Maria grand fleet led by or lumbus for a grand total of five thousand six hundred forty people ready to help Luffy anytime he is in need so Luffy essentially has a small pirate army following him which will without a doubt help his influence and help him defeat some very powerful enemies in the future Luffy also has some considerable connections within his family his father is the most wanted man in the world and the leader of the Revolutionary Army and although the two actually haven't spoken yet Luffy has made connections with other members of the Revolutionary Army so it is without a doubt in my mind that the two will end up coming together at some point and by the way dragon saved Luffy in log town so it appears as though he does care about his son's life so it's good to know that one of the most powerful men in the world is looking after Luffy in one way or another additionally luffy's brother Sabo is second in command in the Revolutionary Army and those two always make it a goal to protect each other so it is without a doubt in my mind that Luffy will have some sort of alliance with the Revolutionary Army which is one of the most powerful and mysterious groups in the world and this alliance will definitely come into play later on down the road luffy's grandfather garb is also a notable ally although I don't know if I would actually call them allies particularly Luffy also has alliances or friendships with many other pirates and their crews for instance he is allied with the heart pirates and travel guard law and together they are on a mission to defeat the young Co Kaito who is considered the strongest creature in the world and this alliance will definitely be a key factor in accomplishing that goal and seeing as they already over through the doflamingo family with their alliance we can see that together they can accomplish some great things Luffy is also ad live with Bowa Hancock who is a chichi bukai without his alliance with her Luffy would not have been able to break in to impel down or temporarily save ace and she is also very powerful and has a big influence on many people so it's good to keep her close Luffy is also allied with Jim Bay and the fish man pirates which having the influence of the entire Fishman Island in addition to Jen Bay and the fish man pirates is a very good alliance to have additionally jinbei is pretty much confirmed to eventually become a member of Luffy's crew so with his influence and power it will be awesome to have him aboard Luffy is also allied with Silver's railay who was the first mate of the former pirate king himself and really helped train luffy in many different aspects over the time-skip including how to control his hockey without this training luffy would definitely still have a very long way to go to get to where he is now and having such a powerful and wise man on his side has proved to be a great asset Luffy also carries a strong relationship with shanks who is a young co and the red-haired pirates although I don't ever see them fighting together in the near future shanks is Luffy's role model and the person Luffy aims to someday grow strong enough to defeat or surpass so his relationship with shanks is very important because it shows the level Luffy needs to reach to truly become the king of the Pirates there are also a bunch of other pirate alliances or friendships Luffy has made but these were the ones I felt were most notable Luffy also has a small connection to the Marines with Kobe and connections to alabasta Skye Pia and address rosa for helping save their kingdoms and these aren't even all the allies Luffy has the list just goes on and on but in the end after we look at all the world powers the only one Luffy isn't somewhat connected to is the Goro se and the celestial dragons so Luffy has connections in all the right places which will definitely help him throughout his journey and all of these connections are very important in calling Luffy one of the strongest characters in the one-piece world but now that we finally finish all the important information about Luffy let me explain to you why I believe he is strong enough to be in this top 10 and why I ranked him 10th for that matter so we just went over a lot of information probably too much information of that but knowing everything you can possibly know about these characters to really look at every angle is very important in my opinion so why do I think Luffy deserves to be in this top 10 I know a lot of you out there will agree that Luffy is definitely one of the strongest and I know a lot of you will also disagree thinking that Luffy is indeed strong but he is currently by no means one of the top 10 well honestly I can see it both ways but saying Luffy isn't one of the strongest characters at this point in the story is a bit ridiculous first I want to discuss his relationships being that he is the main character and having progressed to this far he has created a seemingly endless amount of allies and honestly compared to other characters who will appear on the list Luffy has more allies than almost every single one of them and if he doesn't have more allies he has debatably more important ones what I mean by that is pretty simple but mainly it comes down to the fact that Luffy gets special treatment as the main character and to reach his goal of becoming the king of the Pirates he is going to need lots of help and tons of allies and important places to make that possible like we stated earlier Luffy has at least one ally in every single type of Worrell power aside from the Goro say and the celestial dragons so he really isn't missing out on much he also has a fleet of over 5,000 men ready at a moment's notice to help Luffy with whatever he needs he has a powerful crew helping him achieve his dream he has other pirate crews allied with him such as the heart pirates who are working together with the straw hats to take down a yang Co which will be no easy task he has kingdoms such as alabasta who are indebted to him allied Chichibu Kai both current and former and just so many more so in terms of influence and connections Luffy is much more powerful than a lot of people who will appear on this list in regards to Luffy's normal physical strength he is definitely stronger than most thanks to GARP straining when Luffy was a kid and let's be honest here for a second Luffy isn't really a big looking guy by himself so it's definitely surprising that he's as strong as he is do I think Luffy is the strongest character based on just raw physical strength hell no do I think a lot of his physical strength and other physical abilities is also the result of his devil fruit definitely so let's move on to that and let me just start out by saying that if Luffy wasn't as creative as he was his devil fruit would be nowhere near as useful as it is when I think of a fruit turning someone into a rubber man it sounds like one of the worst ideas ever but Luffy has proved me wrong time and time again creating new and exciting techniques all throughout the story to combat different enemies and to just overall grow stronger but something that I believe is a huge downfall in regards to his fruit is how dangerous it can be a lot of Luffy's strongest techniques take a huge toll on luffy's body after he uses them such as gear second slowly taking time off of his lifespan with every use and gear fourth leaving him unable to move after prolonged use even so long as not being able to move for three whole days after using it twice in his fight against doflamingo so although his techniques are powerful enough to take out some of the most powerful foals it at a big cost and unfortunately for Luffy other characters in one piece are able to perform impressive techniques as well but their's don't come with any backlash making theirs automatically better in comparison but I will give credit where it is due by saying other characters double fruits are much better than Luffy's but Luffy has found a way to make his devil fruit just as useful and powerful as theirs if not more useful and powerful also Luffy has found many ways to incorporate armament haki into his techniques to boost their potential along with using haki to create entirely new techniques such as gear 4th because honestly without hockey gear fourth likely wouldn't even exist but moving on to Luffy's haki abilities he is definitely one of the more proficient haki users from what we've seen Luffy has access to all three types of hockey which is already a very impressive accomplishment with conquerors haki luffy can already take out any normal human with a weak will without even touching them and on top of that since conquerors haki is based on willpower Luffy has pretty much every other character in the series beat because Luffy's willpower is almost unmatched his observation haki is also very impressive but not as impressive as I was hoping I've seen that Luffy can easily anticipate his enemy's moves yet he still manages to let his opponents strike him way too many times I understand that a lot of his opponents are very powerful and sometimes unpredictable but I think Luffy really needs to step up his game and avoid some hits once in a while so without a doubt observation haki is his weakest of the three and finally in regards to haki his use of armament haki is also a force to be reckoned with because Luffy has learned to easily cover his limbs quickly while fighting his enemies for both offensive and defensive purposes whether he is blocking an attack or performing an attack his armament haki is on par with a lot of the other strong characters in one piece additionally Luffy has incorporated his armament haki into many of his techniques like we just stated earlier including gear 4th to create his currently strongest technique the king kong gun which is one of these stronger techniques we've seen so far in the one-piece world and lastly let's look at his intelligence in terms of intelligence Luffy is deaf lacking but what he doesn't have an intelligence he makes up with willpower and like I stated just before in my opinion I think Luffy has the most willpower compared to almost every other character so something I really like about Luffy is that whenever he is lacking in something he more than makes up for it in something else and as a little bonus since Luffy has a high immunity to poison now I believe that he would be able to easily fight Magellan once again without having to worry too much about getting hurt or dying for that matter so I feel like Luffy is currently superior to him which is why Magellan won't be on this list also Luffy's devil fruit seems to be the natural weakness - in l's devil fruit making it so it nails lightening techniques do nothing to him so simply for that reason and the fact that NL is not in the current storyline he will also not be featured in this list even though he is a very powerful character now although I do believe Luffy is one of the strongest one-piece characters I do not believe he should be placed any higher than ten on this list my main reasoning for this is because a lot of other characters on this list are just much stronger than Luffy in quite a few different ways maybe they aren't stronger in every aspect but in the majority they definitely are and a lot of you will probably disagree with this when you see who some of these characters are because spoiler alert some of the characters on this list Luffy has battled in the past and defeated them but just because Luffy won those fights does not mean he is the stronger character by any means in fact many of those fights were decided purely on the help of others or just luffy's overwhelming willpower in general and although both of those things do factor in to making someone stronger sometimes you're going to need to battle without them the other reason I cannot place Luffy any higher is because of one unfortunate issue that being the fact he is the main character of the series and because of that he gets special treatment or as many call it plot armor now in many situations plot armor is a blessing and automatically will make these characters stronger in one aspect or another but to me it is almost cheating we know for a fact that when Luffy goes up against the newest enemy that he is almost guaranteed to defeat them somehow of course this isn't always the case but it is about 90% of the time which is just unfair to me the best example in my eyes is Luffy's fight against du flamingo there is no way Luffy could have won that fight if the plot didn't depend on it and in addition to that by the end of the story Luffy is going to end up being the strongest character or one of the top five no matter how you look at it but Luffy is still far from that point and has quite a long way to go so because Luffy is undoubtedly one of the strongest characters in one piece right now in pretty much all of the aspects we were looking at he takes the tenth place on this list but because he is not as strong as some of the others on this list and he's not as strong as some of the opponents he managed to defeat in the past sheerly because of plot armor I cannot place him any higher than number ten number nine Kuzon just like Luffy the first thing we're going to be going over is his physical abilities considering that Kuzon was formerly an admiral of the marines he has immense physical strength for instance he was easily able to battle against Diamond jozu and even white beard himself while being seemingly equal in power to them he was also able to take a haki imbued kick from mark or the Phoenix and come out seemingly uninjured also during his battle with jozu he took on a hockey and Bude strike from jozu while he was covered in diamonds and Kuzon came out of it with only a small scratch on his lip showing that even some of his powerful attacks barely affect his defensive capabilities he can also jump a very great distance and only a matter of seconds very similar to the techniques or ooh which his speed could either be soru or just his natural speed in general we can also assume his endurance and stamina is unmatched because he was able to battle SAC uzuki alone for 10 whole days on an island before finally being defeated Kuzon also has very good hearing as he was able to hear something in the water before the war at marine board began also as a testament to his strength jagwire d saw who was capable of lifting warships himself has said that cooze ons strength was abnormal even before he became an admiral so we can safely assume that there's even more we have yet to see about this man's strength in regards to his intelligence cusan is a very complex and hard to read character he acted very lazy and aloof while he was an admiral so what often appears as though he isn't very intelligent but considering he was a marine admiral I think it's safe to assume he is much smarter than he looks especially considering how he easily shed his lazy attitude once the Marine Ford War began so although not much is known about how smart he actually is I think it's safe to say we shouldn't underestimate his intelligence but I also don't think he's a genius either next let's discuss his ability to use haki unfortunately we haven't seen cusan use haki very much at all however we do know that he possesses it because it has been stated that all Marines with the rank of vice-admiral or higher had the ability to use haki and when Kuzon was a member of the marines he was an admiral so we can safely assume his ability to use hockey is definitely way above average so far we have only seen one instance of Guzan using hockey which was armament haki and he used it along with keys Roux and sokka's oogi to create a shield that stopped white beard from destroying the execution platform now with the two-year time skip it is also safe to assume that his hockey has gotten stronger as well now moving on to his devil fruit which is the hehe anomie otherwise known as the chili chili fruit this devil fruit is a logia type and allows cusan to turn both himself and the area surrounding him into ice it should also be noted that this fruit is superior to the youqi youqi Nomi making it automatically a bit higher on the list even though Monet is dead so she is ineligible for this list anyways it should also be noted that this fruit was able to go up against the magu magu know me for 10 whole days and that fruit has been said to be this fruits natural weakness so the very fact that this fruit was able to go up against the fruit it is weak against for ten whole days and actually put up a decent fight is a huge accomplishment by itself but in addition to that this fruit was also powerful enough to turn half of an island into a frozen wasteland over the course of that 10-day and the fact that this route can also change the environment from prolonged use is also a big accomplishment in terms of how powerful this fruit can really be this fruits main use is for combat purposes but it can also be used for other things this fruit allows the user to freeze anyone or anything that comes into contact with them whether or not Kuzon makes contact with the object in question or the object makes contact with him if a person were to be frozen and any area that is frozen is not treated properly and immediately that person will become frostbitten which leads to permanent tissue damage additionally if anyone he freezes completely is not thawed almost immediately they will die however that person will also remain alive while frozen inside the ice for a short period of time and if the ice is broken with the person still inside they will also shatter killing them this devil fruit also makes Kazan himself very resistant to the cold meaning he can easily survive in harsh frozen environments without freezing to death also unlike most other logia this fruits element is solid meaning that although Kuzon could turn into his element to bypass attacks he will still be physically hit although any ice that is broken from the hit will just reform right away meaning that parts of his body were not in danger of being broken along with it Kuzon has also created a number of different techniques that he can use such as ice age where he places his hands on large bodies of water such as the ocean and can freeze the whole area in an instant along with everything else the water touches this ice can stretch for miles and will not thaw for a whole week and ice age can be very useful for creating a platform to walk on or say freezing an enemy ship in place so it cannot escape at sea the ice time capsule where Kuzon creates a wave of ice that travels along the ground and anything it touches will completely freeze the ice ball where Kuzon freezes a victim in a gigantic ice sphere from a distance and the ice block pheasant beak which is where Kuzon releases a gigantic wave of ice in the shape of a pheasant all at once it should also be noted that Kuzon can create weapons such as a spear out of his ice and throw this spear at enemies from afar as a method of having a long-range data because many of his techniques involved directly touching his enemies meaning that most attacks need to be performed in close proximity also this fruit is one of the few that can counteract its weakness to falling in water because Kuzon can simply freeze the water around him and then walk on the surface to escape the sea and that about does it for his devil fruit so lastly let's look at his connections although Kuzon is no longer a marine I think it's very safe to say that he still managed to remain friends with many of his allies who are still Marines such as smoker and sangoku it has also been said that while he was in the Marines he was very popular with marines of all ranks which leads me to believe that even though he is not still a member of the Marines he still has his connections from within to a certain extent of course unfortunately for him though when he resigned from the Marines he also cut all ties with the world government so a lot of his useful connections are no longer available and although we currently don't know much about the situation it seems as though Kuzon has allied himself with the underworld brokers in some way and it was also confirmed by the Goro say that Kuzon has also allied himself with the Blackbeard pirates and although we don't know what their work in relationship is having any alliance with Ayako is a connection to be feared by many so right away compared to all the information we have about luffy it feels as if Kuzon Falls a bit short which I can definitely see but there are a couple reasons why I think Kuzon is stronger than Luffy the first being that cooze ons fruit is superior to luffy's you see although rubber itself can't exactly freeze when rubber gets exposed to very cold temperatures it becomes hard and brittle making it very hard to stretch on top of that when Luffy first fought cusan he was almost immediately defeated and at marine Forde although they didn't encounter each other for very long it was very easy for Kazan to take advantage of him once again two years later Luffy is obviously much much stronger but I'm also guessing Kuzon is as well so although I feel like Luffy would put up a decent fight against him I feel like the power of ice would end up doing nothing but slowing luffy down until he is ultimately defeated in addition if Kusum was able to battle against the magu magu no me which his fruit is weak against for ten whole days what do you think he could do against a fruit he as the advantage against well I'll tell ya defeated although in comparison to Luffy Kuzon has his advantages and of course his disadvantages even though Kuzon puts on a very lazy demeanor I still believe he is decently intelligent whereas Luffy is not very intelligent so I think in a battle of brains Kuzon would be able to take the cake physically I feel like the two are about even are pretty close to but Kuzon likely has the upper edge when it comes to raw physical power in terms of haki Luffy has the edge but only because we truly don't know what Kuzon can really do I imagine he would need to be very proficient with it to achieve the role of admiral in the first place but even so luffy has shown a great deal of mastery when it comes to haki and since cusan likely doesn't have conquerors haki Luffy has him beat and in terms of connections Luffy definitely has the upper hand but kou Zhun also has allies and places Luffy does not which also gives him some leverage not only is he somewhat allied with Marines from his time serving with them but he also has some sort of relationship with some of luffy's enemies the underworld and the yong-chol Blackbeard so although Luffy has many allies and some very important ones Kuzon has allies that luffy likely never will so compared to luffy i think the two are about even in most aspects something Luffy is lacking Kuzon reign superior and something cusan is lacking Luffy reign superior but even with all that give-and-take it ends up coming down to which one would have the advantage in a fight and because Kuzon has the superior devil fruit I think he would end up being stronger than Luffy now compared to other people who will appear on this list Kuzon would still put up a good fight with each of them but I believe that all of the other characters on this list would be able to defeat cusan in one way or another some of these characters have defeated him or went up against him in the past while others on the list are simply just speculation I feel it is also important to note that after cousin's fight with SAC uzuki he has a lot of scars and possible tissue damage he also ended up losing his left leg in their battle and now uses a leg made out of ice as a prosthetic so I also feel that his missing limb could cause coos on a lot of problems during a battle whether his ice leg is broken during the battle and he doesn't have enough time to form a new one or it simply doesn't work as well as an actual leg I feel it does hurt his combat potential so overall Kuzon is definitely one of the strongest characters in one piece but there are still quite a few characters that I feel are stronger than him and characters who have superiority to his abilities so because of that Kuzon will remain at number 9 number 8 Don Quixote doflamingo much like Luffy we've got a lot of information to cover with doflamingo so go grab some more snacks but like the rest we'll begin with his physical abilities so I honestly don't even know what to start with regarding his physical abilities because doflamingo has massive strength insanely fast reflexes incredible speed great defensive abilities and endurance and that's not even everything so let us begin with his physical strength which to say the least is monstrous for a few different examples doflamingo was never even injured until the dressrosa arc and with that you need to keep in mind he also participated in the marine forward war where so many big names were injured in one way or another yet doflamingo made it out without even a scratch it has also been said by traffic our law that if doflamingo were to resign from the shichi bukai the marines would send their most powerful members which are the admirals to take him down because doflamingo is so powerful that anyone else wouldn't even be able to put up a decent fight against him doflamingo himself also has a very monster as build being 10 feet tall and with that build and the strength he possesses he is easily able to carry around a human being without ever getting tired his arms are obviously very strong but his real strength lies in his legs because his fighting style specializes in immensely powerful kicks being able to easily destroy large rocks metal and even entire buildings with a single kick doe Flamengo's leg strength is also so immense that he was able to create a 360-degree shockwave with one swing of his leg that was powerful enough to cut through all three of the dressrosa palace towers so when it comes to raw physical strength doflamingo is vastly superior to the majority of characters in one piece when it comes down to speed doflamingo is tremendously fast some of this of course comes from is devil fruit ability being able to pull himself in directions if need be but by himself he is also fast enough to easily dodge most attacks that come his way and if he is unable to dodge it in time he is still fast enough to block the incoming attack with ease making both his speed and reflexes very hard to counter he was also able to easily dodge or his juniors attacks and jump over him along with escaped crocodile sandstorm without taking any damage so although he is by no means the fastest character he is fast enough to give most powerful characters a run for their life and last but not least to do flamingos defensive abilities and endurance are on a whole nother level even at the very young age of eight years old doflamingo was able to withstand numerous sessions of torture from mobs of people without cracking under pressure but instead swearing his revenge against them so now over 30 years later his pain tolerance is almost a non-existent because it seems as if there are very few ways to actually hurt him for instance in the beginning of the dressrosa arc when baby 5 hit him with an explosive round to the face and it didn't damage him or faze him in the slightest and he just continued with what he was doing as though nothing happened meaning his body must be so strong to the point where it takes a lot of power just to make him feel something another good example of his defensive capabilities was his ability to easily block Sanji's diablo Jambi kick and a barrage of Sanji's other kicks afterwards without taking any damage which in comparison Sanji's kicks are easily able to destroy a pacifist as body effortlessly so the fact that doflamingo could block those attacks so easily while taking no damage and not even using his hockey is very very impressive he was also able to take a direct hit from laws Gamma Knife which must have been painful even for him and then he was able to still continue on as if his organs didn't just get badly injured he was also able to take a barrage of Luffy's attacks without taking too much damage and even being able to still get back up and fight stronger than ever after getting pummeled time and time again by Luffy's gear forth attacks until the point where doflamingo was finally defeated and you still need to keep in mind that he did all of this while his organs were badly damaged so during that situation imagine what doflamingo could with and if his insides were unharmed moving on to his intelligence doflamingo may not be what we would consider a downright genius but he is definitely very intelligent and a mastermind whenever it comes to his schemes a few good examples of what I mean would be the way he attempted to separate law and Luffy when they entered dressrosa by offering the Mara Mara know me as a prize because he knew that Luffy would never let anyone else have his brother's devil fruit and sure enough doflamingo was correct which shows that he has great insight and his plan ended up working heavily in his favor just like he thought it would even if it would backfire later on another good example would be how doflamingo used his connection with the world government and the celestial dragons to make his enemies think he had left to this chichi bouquet which would in turn trap them which like I've said earlier the connections that these characters have are very important in deciding how strong you actually are because with friends in high places like this you can accomplish some pretty devastating things so the fact that doflamingo actually uses these connections in his strategy shows how intelligent he really is and my last example would be how doflamingo found a way to reclaim dressrosa by offering the people their lives along with prize money for taking down the ones who overthrew him in the first place which moved most people back to his side of the playing field for a little while at least this example here truly shows that even if doflamingo is seemingly backed into a corner or his plans are crumbling beneath him he can still quickly think of a way to turn the tables back in his favor and then swiftly execute his new counter-attack showing that there is more than meets the eye with this heavenly demon next up is his ability to use hockey and something I forgot to mention earlier when we were talking about his strength and defensive capabilities was that the majority of what we discussed was without his use of hockey so before I even begin to talk about his hockey can you imagine how much more powerful he is when he applies hockey to his attacks and uses it for defense jesus [ __ ] christ he really is a monster anyway doflamingo was able to use both armament haki and conquerors haki which since we talked about what these are earlier I'm just going to assume you guys remember what they do for the rest of the video but the sheer fact that doflamingo can use conquerors haki is already an accomplishment by itself because there are currently only six living care characters in the series who have access to it additionally unlike the other characters his conquerors hockey was first awakened when he was only 10 years old unfortunately we don't get to see doflamingo use this hockey too much but he does use it against the g5 soldiers during his fight with smoker and we also get to see its effect when his hockey clashes with Luffy's but even if we don't get to see it too much the fact that he still has it is enough to give him an edge on this list however when it comes to his armament haki it's not as good as it could be but don't get me wrong it is still way above average the reason I say it's not as good as it could be is because although he has no problem blocking powerful attacks like Luffy's jet Gatling without taking any damage and using his hockey to soften the blow from Luffy's gear forth techniques but the problem is his hockey is not powerful enough to defend from sharp objects or blades because we can visibly see that his hand is cut when he grabs law's sword so defensively on top of his monstrous endurance his hockey is pretty darn good but not the best and offensively it basically just makes all of his attacks a bit more powerful but that's what armament haki does for pretty much everyone else - but since doflamingo already has immense strength his attacks can only get so much stronger with the use of hockey so offensively I would say his hockey is better than his use of it defensively because it seems to benefit him a bit more also one thing I wanted to add was that doflamingo can imbue the strings from his devil fruit with hockey as well meaning that his already overpowered strings can now injure logia users and when doflamingo used this against smoker who is a logia user he was severely injured because of it so even if his hockey doesn't necessarily make his devil fruit ability much stronger it does make it useful against other devil fruit users specifically the logia giving him a better edge in a fight now since we just brought it up let's move on to his devil fruit which is the ITO eat onami or the string string fruit and what this fruit does is it allows the user to create and manipulate strings these strings are very thin razor sharp and virtually indestructible and can be attached to pretty much anything from people objects and even non-solid objects like clouds these strings can be generated from seemingly any part of the users own body including their organs and are mostly seen protruding from the users palms and fingertips these strings can be used a ton of different ways as well such as swiping his hands to release piano wire looking strings that can slice through pretty much anything from people buildings weapons and more creating bundled up strings that can be constructed into rope bullets and even an identical clone of himself he can also control people like a puppet by attaching his strings to their spine and in addition to that he can control multiple people at the same time and he can even fly or transport himself through the air by attaching his strings to nearby clouds so the possibilities for this one are seemingly endless also like we stated earlier doflamingo can also use these strings to stitch up his internal organs when they are badly injured like I mentioned before these strings are also so durable to the point where they are virtually indestructible because so far there are very few ways to damage them whatsoever these strings are also so thin when they are not compressed to the point where if you weren't aware he had this ability you probably wouldn't even see the attack coming additionally one small downfall is that these strings can seemingly cut through anything but they are unable to cut through see prism stone and these strings can also be blocked or deflected with armament haki so if you were to say cover a sword and haki these strings would not be able to cut through it but now that we know what this devil fruit can do let's look at some of his signature techniques parasite which is basically where he controls one or more people like a puppet go Chiquito which is where doflamingo swipes his hand to send string from each finger flying at his opponent or other object and these strings can cut through almost anything like we recently stated overheat which is a bunch of string condensed into a giant whip used to basically whip his enemies also in the anime it should be noted that this whip appears to look as if it is emitting heat but this is anime only and as far as we know this whip does not actually generate heat side note this whip can also travel many kilometres so good luck running away from it termite which are bullet strings that he fires from his fingers black night which is doflamingo's almost identical clone of himself made entirely out of strings it should also be noted that doflamingo is in control of this clone and as the clone itself is pretty damn strong consent it's just moving string this clone is strong enough to slap away a jet pistol from Luffy and since it does not feel pain it is very beneficial to use in a fight it should also be noted that unlike doe flamingos normal strings these Black Knight clones can be damaged such as one Kiros cut off a clones head although this could just be the string separating rather than breaking so that is up for debate athlete which is where doflamingo attaches string to his foot and then sends a powerful kick to his opponent this attack was also powerful enough to injure luffy even when he was defending with armament haki and finally the tory cago better known as the bird cage this is considered doflamingo's ultimate technique to perform this technique doflamingo shoots an enormous amount of string into the air that forms what appears to be a giant bird cage around doflamingo's location that covers a very great distance the string pillars then trap anyone on the inside of the cage because there is no way to escape without defeating doflamingo himself and the reason for that is because these pillars will cut almost anything they come in contact with doflamingo can also choose to bring the cage boundaries closer to him forcing people on the inside to inevitably come closer and closer to his location and he can also control the speed in which the cage moves at will although the wires cannot be stopped without defeating doflamingo the cage can be slowed down with enough physical forces pushing it back and like we stated earlier most of these techniques can also be applied with haki to make them both stronger and able to hit logia devil fruit users who were previously intangible making this double fruit something to really fear but it doesn't even stop there doflamingo has found a way to awaken his devil fruit which is something we have not seen very much of yet in the series and as of making this video he is currently the only confirmed paramecia devil fruit user to awaken his fruit this awakening allows him to transform his surroundings into string so the ground nearby buildings and other objects can become doflamingo strings at will making this fruit seem like a whole nother beast entirely with these new strings doflamingo has also created a whole new plethora of techniques which we will go over now break white which is where doflamingo creates two gigantic pillars or sheets of string that wrap around his opponent and Crow them off-white which is where doflamingo creates two masses of string as a shield or defensive measure that can also push away his opponent flap thread which is where doflamingo uses tons of strings from the surrounding environment to form this string into a bunch of points which all fly at his opponent in the form of wings and are said to feel like 1,000 arrows piercing all at once and God thread which is where doflamingo forms the stringing 216 thick strings that he sends at his opponent all at once although this attack was deflected by Luffy's King Kong gun it still managed to pierce through Luffy's arms slightly before being overpowered however this was done with the help of doflamingo imbuing haki into the god thread as well so it is possible for him to add haki to his awakened abilities making them even stronger if you can believe that but that pretty much covers his devil fruit abilities so lastly let's talk about his notable connections and allies the very first set of allies we should discuss is his own crew or family the Don Quixote pirates these allies are by far the most important to doflamingo and he shows undying love and respect to each member in his upper ranks and will continue to show respect unless one of them were to betray him each member of his family are very powerful in their own way and many of them have a devil fruit meaning that he also has a small army of different devil fruit abilities at his disposal with this crew he was also able to take over the entire kingdom of dressrosa and rule it accordingly although each member of this elite family are notable in their own way let's talk about the very important ones the most important are definitely his four elite officers Virgo treble pika and diamante each one of them are responsible not only for dough flamingos well being especially when he was young but they are also each insanely powerful not by any means on doflamingo zone level of strength but they are strong enough to go toe-to-toe with a member of the supernovas like Zorro Virgo was probably the most important member of the for regarding what he was tasked with doing which was infiltrating the Marines from the inside as an undercover agent and doflamingo has also said virgo is his most convenient and trustworthy marine officer meaning that doflamingo likely has other undercover agents hiding with the Marines but now that Virgo is dead and we have no proof of others on the inside this is no longer valid another important member of his crew would of course be sugar specifically for the use of her devil fruit ability which allowed doflamingo to have an even tighter grasp on dressrosa and what happens to his people if they disobey doflamingo also had the undying loyalty of Bellamy and the Bellamy pirates and though they have defected since it opens up the discussion as to whether or not doflamingo has other pirate crews who are allied to him which I would say he definitely does so even though we don't know any of them offhand doflamingo definitely has other crew is working under him that could help him whenever he is in need although his defeat definitely took a hit on this next connection doflamingo also has connections to the underworld and he himself was one of the most influential underworld brokers because of this we can only imagine that doflamingo has a lot of very dangerous connections that we aren't even aware of and considering that doflamingo was an owner of a slade trading house and he sold Cesar clowns artificial devil fruits through the underworld as well as along with other items we can only assume that for his services other members of the underworld would be willing to help him out if he were in need which because of the underworld it leads me to his next connection which is his connection to the Yakko Kaito doflamingo along with Cesar clown supplied Kaito with these smiles he uses for his crew of beasts Kaito purchases these through doflamingo via the underworld and although doflamingo fears Kaito and was afraid Kaito would kill him if he could not produce the smiles Kaito still sent one of his strongest men a member of the three disasters Jack the drought to try and rescue doflamingo from the Marines this right here proves that dou Flamengo's connection to Kaito is a very important one to the point where Kaito would send one of his strongest men to try and set him free so doflamingo having a Yago as his ally is definitely a very important connection to have and finally doflamingo also has a weird connection with the world government to say the least doflamingo himself has descended from one of the twenty kings who founded the world government eight hundred years ago so doflamingo himself was a world knowable back in the day before his father forfeited their rights as Noble to live among the people since then doflamingo has found a way to blackmail the world government or more specifically the celestial dragons with his knowledge of the national treasure in Murray Joyce from this doflamingo blackmailed the world government into making him a sheet chibok I and the celestial dragons to get somewhat equal rights to them so because of that doflamingo is able to accomplish things that many people never could such as when he got a false story printed in the newspaper about himself leaving the shuchi bukai to fool luffy in law there is literally no one else besides the world government and the celestial dragons who could pull something like this off so although he's not exactly on good terms with the world government or the celestial dragons for that matter he still has the ability to use their power for his own benefit which is something pretty much every other character on this list will never be able to do also as a side note it was revealed that the person who commanded doflamingo to kill Gekko Moria was somebody above even sangoku at the time SoDo Flamengo has connections in some high places and that pretty much does it for all his notable allies so in conclusion let's talk about why I believe he is one of the strongest if it's not obvious already and why I placed him where I did on this list to me doflamingo is one of the physically strongest characters revealed in the series so far in terms of both his offense and defensive abilities do I think doflamingo is the strongest out of everyone else physically not a chance but compared to some of the other characters on this list I still think his physical capabilities remain supreme and his pain tolerance is also on a whole new level now personally I believe some of that has to do with his willpower which in turn goes hand in hand with his ability to use conquerors haki and speaking of his hockey I think doflamingo is a weird case because I feel like his armament haki is of course way above average but compared to some of the other characters it seems as if it's a bit lacking because doflamingo is already physically a monster so because of that I feel most of his attacks wouldn't see a big increase in power when he uses it versus other characters like Luffy whose haki greatly increases his attack power but because doflamingo has access to conquerors haki he still gets a big thumbs up when it comes to his hockey abilities regarding his devil fruit I think doflamingo has one of the most powerful useful and versatile devil fruits in the one-piece world and he has definitely shown what it is capable of I won't repeat everything because we went over a lot but the main points I make is the amount of things this devil fruit is capable of doing is astronomical the ability to apply haki to his strings to hurt logia users is only a big benefit and the shear factor that doflamingo was able to take over an entire kingdom with his abilities is crazy that just shows on a larger scale what he is capable of on top of that he is also one of the only characters who have been confirmed to have awakened his devil fruit giving him an entirely new range of abilities and making it seem as if doflamingo has a different devil fruit entirely and the final thing i want to mention about his devil fruit is that compared to a fruit like Luffy's dough Flamengo's devil fruit does not harm him physically with extended use or certain techniques which automatically gives him the edge regarding his intelligence I feel like doflamingo is one of those characters people don't really think of as being overly intelligent but to me he is one of the smartest characters revealed so far now I don't think he is at the level of a genius by any means but he's pretty darn close I've already went over a bunch of examples above but basically he has a plan for seemingly every possible situation or outcome and he knows how to easily manipulate anyone he comes in contact with and finally doflamingo has a lot of good connections in some powerful places he has a Yonko powerful crew people in the Marines most likely and the power of the celestial dragons at his fingertips so although he may not have as many allies as say Luffy he does have some of the most powerful at his disposal making him someone you don't want to make an enemy of so in regards to why I think he is stronger than Kuzon it brings me back to their encounter when doflamingo was attacking smoker Kuzon came up and froze doflamingo completely and doflamingo was able to easily break himself out of the ice which is something we have not seen many characters able to do yet for instance one cusan fought against a jozu jozu was completely frozen and was unable to break himself out resulting in jozu losing an arm whereas doflamingo was able to easily break out of the ice now in terms of raw power I feel like doflamingo has the edge but Kuzon would still be able to give him a pretty difficult time I also think doflamingo is more intelligent than Kuzon giving him a better sense of strategy so I feel like by himself goos on what not be able to take doflamingo down but he would be able to give doflamingo a solid run for his money another reason why I believe kou Zhun wouldn't be able to defeat doflamingo is because in regards to Luffy I don't think Luffy would have ever been able to beat doflamingo if it wasn't for laws Gamma Knife and of course Lupe's famous plot armor so if Luffy himself needed help to defeat doflamingo I feel like kou Zhong would also need some sort of help to take doflamingo down now moving on to Luffy like I just said it would be impossible for Luffy to beat doflamingo if Luffy wasn't the main character and the only reason why Luffy was able to take him down was because of his allies which does help make a character stronger but like I've already said before sometimes you need to do things on your own and don't get me wrong the fact that Luffy is strong enough to go up against doflamingo and even defeat him is one hell of an accomplishment but just because someone beats someone else in a fight doesn't always mean they are the stronger individual so what I'm looking at is would doflamingo be able to beat Luffy's and who's ondraw physical power yes would he be able to beat them in a battle of intelligence yes how does his devil fruit compare to theirs it's definitely on par if not better how is his hockey compared to theirs it's not quite as good as luffy's in my opinion but I think he has equal at least against Guzan and how does his allies fare with theirs now interestingly enough they all have a different set of powerful allies and I feel as if all three of them were to have some sort of three-way war against each other's allies doflamingo would put up one hell of a fight considering his connections with both a yakko and the world government but would he win that's up for debate I feel like because of all of this doflamingo definitely deserves to be above both of those two on the list and doflamingo has without a doubt earned his spot as the 8th strongest character in one piece but if he's only number eight who could possibly be stronger than him number seven charlotte cracker so let us begin with his physical abilities and without even talking about specifics cracker is without a doubt very powerful cracker is powerful enough to be one of the three highest ranking members in the yago big moms crew which are dubbed the three sweet command and to be considered strong enough to rank highly in a yonkos crew is definitely something that cannot be achieved without some serious power additionally cracker currently also has the third highest bounty revealed in the series so far which is 860 million Berry's meaning that the world government considers him a highly dangerous individual now before we continue on something else I wanted to bring up real quick would be the other two sweet commanders who are smoothie and katakuri as of right now category hasn't even been revealed so since we know nothing about them they will not be on this list and when it comes to smoothie she was only revealed a couple chapters ago so we do know a little bit of information about her but not near enough to put her on this list so I do want to acknowledge that if smoothie and category are anything like cracker in terms of abilities they would definitely have a place on this list but as of right now we simply don't have enough information to decide where they would be at on the list and I don't really like making assumptions unless I have a bit of information to back it up I also want to note that smoothie has the second highest bounty revealed in the series which is nine hundred thirty two million berries so she is without a doubt on the same level or higher than cracker just based on the bounty alone so like I said before since we don't know enough about her abilities she will not be on this list but I would like to give her an honorable mention regardless and I would assume that she would be somewhere near cracker on this list if I were to put her on it but anyways now let's get back to cracker and something else I wanted to mention about him is how just the sound of his voice alone is enough for the nearby homies to cower in fear which implies that cracker is so powerful that his comrades even fear what he could possibly do when it comes to his physical strength cracker is easily able to carry around a sword that is much bigger than his actual body and swing it at very great speed showing us that the weight of that massive sword is almost nothing to him he is also able to physically repel Luffy and his attacks without any problem whatsoever in regards to his durability cracker is a bit lacking because of how he was knocked unconscious from Luffy's tank man technique however to be fair he flew quite a long way crashing into multiple things the way as well so it must have been a very powerful attack that did a lot of damage to him but I feel like other characters on this list would still be able to get back up and fight after taking on that attack so his durability could be a tad bit better but it's still not too bad because cracker was easily able to withstand some of Luffy's other powerful attacks without even being injured but what he lacks and durability he makes up in stamina as he was able to easily fight and chase after Luffy for 11 whole hours while constantly using his devil fruit ability which does take a small toll on his stamina so the fact that he was able to keep going after that is very impressive something else I want to add is that his physical attacks are also greatly increased with armament haki but we'll discuss that in a little bit here in regards to his intelligence I believe that cracker is a lot smarter than most people think especially when it comes to deception although we'll talk about his actual devil fruit ability in a little bit here cracker used his devil fruits ability to hide in a biscuit soldier he created as a suit of armor and because the biscuit soldier looks nothing like his actual appearance the world government and the Marines don't know what crackers actual appearance is or they think his biscuit soldier is crackers actual appearance because of that his wanted poster even features this false appearance so cracker is so crafty that he successfully fooled the world government this whole entire time leading to the ultimate deception another example was the way he tried to fool Luffy into thinking his devil fruit ability was the ability to multiply his limbs and weapons and finally on top of that he also made his biscuit armor COFF up Jam that looked like blood to make it appear as if he was badly wounded when in reality he wasn't even injured leading to a very tricky counter-attack so the fact that cracker is smart enough to not only deceive the world government but also deceive his opponent more than once in the middle of a battle is something that most characters wouldn't be able to do so although he may not be a genius or close to one by any means he is still a rather smart individual moving on to his hockey abilities cracker only has the ability to use armament haki however his armament haki is definitely the strongest we've seen on this list so far Luffy who I would say was our previous best armament haki user on this list has even said during battle that crackers haki was extremely tough so that right there is saying something in terms of its defensive capabilities but when it comes to his offensive use of haki cracker can not only apply this to his normal attacks but he can also apply it to his gigantic sword and when he does his swords cutting power along with his overall attack power is greatly increased to the point where cracker almost cut off luffy's arm with his hockey and Bude sword while luffy was using gear fourth in comparison dole Flamengo's awakened strings imbued with hockey we're only able to slightly damage Luffy's gear fourth arm so the fact of that cracker would have been able to cut it off shows how powerful he and his hockey really is cracker can also apply his hockey to his biscuit soldiers and armor to make them even more powerful as well so when it comes to his ability to use armament haki he is definitely the best on the list so far however he does not possess conquerors hockey or observation haki so his hockey is not quite as good in terms of variety next up let's discuss his devil fruit which is the Bisou Bisou no me this devil fruit allows the user to generate and to manipulate biscuits at will making them a biscuit human with this ability the user can seemingly create an unlimited amount of these biscuits and the biscuits themselves can be manipulated in a ton of different ways and is really only limited to the user's imagination considering that cracker himself is somewhat of a master craftsman he is capable of manipulating these biscuits into large moving human-like figures that are very realistic cracker can also create weapons for these figures and if he so chooses extra limbs and weapons cracker can control their movements at will and so far there does not seem to be a limit to the amount he can control at once additionally he can also get inside a biscuit soldier and control them from the inside these biscuit soldiers are extremely strong and durable but they can still be broken with enough brute force and water will soften the biscuits to the point where they can be eaten so this devil fruit does have a slight disadvantage in rainy weather or wet areas so far with this devil fruit we've only seen cracker use two different techniques which are biscuit soldier which is where cracker creates and controls his soldiers made out of biscuits and hard biscuit this technique is used when cracker himself is inside a biscuit soldier he then multiplies his biscuits shaped shield and covers it with armament haki and then slams it into his opponent mainly to pin them to the ground but it could also be used as a way to repel or stun his enemies this devil fruit is definitely a very powerful and useful one however I think some of the others on this list are a bit better mainly because this fruit does affect his stamina with prolonged use and certain situations also render it a bit weaker such as with rain but I also believe that this fruit could be used in a lot of different ways other than just creating soldiers and weapons just think of all the potential things cracker could create with all these biscuits so because of all the extra possibilities I'm still willing to say it's one of the better devil fruits for sure and finally let's look at his notable connections or allies his only big connection that we currently know about is the yonk oh and his own mother big mom and her crew cracker himself is one of her three commanders so because of that he has great authority within the crew itself being able to single-handedly command large fleets into battle but the main reason big mom is such an important ally to have is because big mom herself has over 80 children cracker himself being her tenth son but what big mom strives to do is marry each of her children into a family that will somehow benefit or strengthen her crew and with over 80 children who will eventually be married into powerful families therefore creating powerful allies because once these allies are married into her family they are automatically considered part of her crew the amount of allies that big mom possesses could be somewhat endless two examples of these allies are the German 66 and although they are not allies by marriage quite yet they are still currently on good terms and another would be the fish man pirates both of which are very powerful groups of individuals another thing that should be noted is big mom's crew and a children themselves are each powerful in one way or another from what we've seen so having this crew on crackers side proves to be a very beneficial and powerful to have additionally one cracker was defeated by Luffy a whole entire army of big moms crew were summoned to take luffy down so from that right there you can see that this crew does not take things lightly big mom also has a deep connection with the underworld similar to doflamingo what this connection consists of is currently unknown however the fact that she has ties to the underworld is enough to secure her and in turn cracker a higher role on the playing field other than this huge example cracker does not have any other known allies that we are aware of at least but now that we've gone over everything let's discuss why cracker is one of the strongest and why I placed him where I did on this list physically speaking cracker is a very weird case because he is extremely powerful offensively however defensively although he seems definitely way above average I feel his defense is nowhere equal to his strength and offense but with that being said he can still take some of the most powerful attacks head on with no issue and like I said earlier what he lacks in defense he makes up in stamina and because his devil fruit takes a toll on his stamina with prolonged use it is very beneficial for his stamina to be extra high which it definitely is and regarding his lack of defense I feel he also makes up for it with his army of biscuit soldiers who will continue to defend him whenever he chooses so physically I feel he is definitely one of the strongest but once again not close to the overall strongest his intelligence is really something that surprised me because he is very smart when it comes to the art of deception which is something that isn't easy to do if you aren't very intelligent and when it comes to deception cracker is some sort of genius because he managed to fool the world government and the Marines with his false appearance for years and with what we saw during his fight with Luffy you can tell that he can easily think of ways to fool or throw off his opponent in a mere instant so I would say that cracker is definitely way above average when it comes to intelligence his hockey is definitely top tier and when it comes to armament haki I believe that cracker is our strongest example of it so far being able to easily overpower other proficient armament haki users with no problem whatsoever but sense cracker doesn't have access to the other two types of haki his full potential with hockey simply cannot be accessed his devil fruit is a very interesting one to say the least and cracker has found ways to use it for his deceptive ways for a great offense a better defense and more the one downfall of the fruit is definitely that it takes a toll on cracker with prolonged use and I automatically consider that a bad thing considering that we have characters out there who can use their fruits to a better extent without causing problems to the user on top of that this fruit is also less useful in certain environments so I think that also counts as a strike against this fruit but that does not mean this is a bad fruit the fact that cracker can create a seemingly unlimited amount of these biscuits means that he basically has his own army ready to assault his enemies at any given moment but because cracker is also a master craftsman with these biscuits I believe he could also transform these biscuits into other useful combat tools such as different types of weapons barriers traps and so on because of that I also believe this fruit has even more unexplored potential which is something I really like to see cracker can also apply haki to his biscuits which means not only do they become stronger and more durable but they also now have the ability to hurt logia users so this devil fruit could easily go up against almost anyone so I would give this devil fruit a solid 7 out of 10 with what we know about it right now so it's by no means a bad double fruit but compared to some of the others that will be on this list it falls a tad bit short and finally regarding his connections I think it feels as if he doesn't have near as many as others on this list but you also need to consider that there are probably plenty of allies we just don't know about but when it comes to big mom and the Ally she has gathered cracker pretty much has the biggest army we've seen at his disposal and because big mom has done nothing but marry allies into her crew we can safely assume she has some of the most powerful allies ready to help her and cracker at any given time so not only is her crew enormous but they are also probably one of the most powerful additionally with her ties to the underworld and for instance the fish man pirates there is even more than meets the eye so I definitely say that cracker has some of the best allies on his side and they are also something that other characters weave so far don't have on their side other than the underworld giving cracker an edge so how does cracker hold up when compared to the other characters we've looked at so far and how is he superior to them well compared to Luffy I feel like cracker has the edge when it comes to raw physical power but his defense is not quite as good as Luffy's but also since they were both able to continue fighting for that 11 hours it's safe to say that both of their stamina is pretty great cracker is definitely more intelligent than Luffy and his armament haki is far superior to his however Luffy does have access to the other two types of haki giving him a variety and a little bit of an edge in terms of devil fruits I would say that crackers is honestly better or about the same and usefulness compared to Luffy because Luffy's is a little more versatile from what we've seen and crackers does have a couple downfalls like his biscuits being caught in the rain whereas Luffy's doesn't have many downfalls other than that it takes a huge toll on his body and so does crackers with prolonged use but luckily for cracker his does not harm his well being it just wears him out if nothing else so I would call it a stalemate because they both have their pros and cons and regarding their connections I would say that Luffy has some pretty powerful allies but crackers connection to big mom gives him more allies and sometimes numbers is all you need but you also have to remember that big mom has some very powerful people in her crew a lot of which we probably don't even know about so crackers allies might even be more powerful than luffy's but when it comes down to Luffy versus cracker in a fight I honestly think that Luffy beating cracker in the story is yet another instance of luffy's plot armour to be honest if Nami wasn't there to aid Luffy and softening crackers soldiers for Luffy to eat Luffy would have been toast especially because cracker would have been able to cut off luffy's arm with hockey even when luffy was in gear fourth which shows just how powerful cracker is so because of all that I believe that cracker is stronger than Luffy now regarding cusan I feel like ice would probably be pretty effective against the biscuit soldiers to slow them down but we can't know for sure obviously although if doflamingo was able to break through the ice without any help I feel cracker would probably be able to do the same thing no problem so I imagine that freezing cracker himself wouldn't be very effective crackers hockey and physical abilities are also far greater than cousins from what I can tell and regarding his allies I feel like even though Kuzon is allied with Blackbeard that alliance wouldn't be enough to take down big mom's crew so Kuzon is definitely taking the El on this one and finally for doflamingo my main deciding factor would be the fact that big mom was extremely confident that cracker could defeat Luffy knowing full well that he took down doflamingo so either big mom knows nothing about doflamingo or she really underestimated him or she knows for a fact that cracker is stronger than doflamingo but considering big mom has connections to the underworld I think it's safe to say she knows a great deal about him and honestly it was hard for me to place cracker above doflamingo because I feel like in almost every aspect these two characters are even or one of them has a slight edge for instance physically cracker has the edge offensively and doflamingo has the edge defensively I feel like doflamingo is more intelligent than cracker but I feel like cracker is still intelligent enough to fool even doflamingo in a fight in terms of hockey cracker has much more powerful armament haki than doflamingo but doflamingo also has conquerors haki giving him a better variety and showing more willpower in terms of devil fruits I feel that doflamingo would probably prevail against the biscuits but I also feel cracker could use armament haki with his biscuits to block doflamingo strings but we don't know for sure so I could be wrong about that so I'll give the edge to doflamingo in terms of devil fruit abilities and connections wise they are close to equal in my book because they both have a yahko on their side and ties to the underworld but doflamingo does have the power of a world noble to use as well but this is where things get interesting to me because what if big mom has a world noble allied into her crew it would give cracker these same exact tools through his allies obviously not quite to the same extent but I also think cracker may have more powerful ally simply because of how massive big mom's crew is and simply how many powerful allies are in it especially those we haven't seen yet so in regards to their connections I would like to call these two pretty much even in that aspect so don't flamingo and cracker are very very close in terms of how powerful they really are but I honestly just think that with everything we know about cracker he would be able to take down flamingos it wouldn't be easy in fact it would be very very hard for him but I know he would be able to do it with the information we've went over I also think that because big mom was able to confidently say Luffy would be easy for cracker to defeat knowing full well the extent of what doflamingo can do and being defeated by Luffy that there is even more to cracker than meets the eye so because of all of that cracker is the seventh strongest character in one piece number six Marco the Phoenix to begin marco is very well rounded when it comes to his physical abilities having a lot to offer for each area regarding his physical strength he is definitely very strong and he generally uses a fighting style that involves a lot of kicking these kicks are also proven strong enough to kick both Kizer ooh and coos on hard enough to the point where they flew a great distance away regarding his normal physical defense we don't get to see much of it because of how he usually defends himself with his devil fruit ability but we'll talk about that later although regarding his defense Marco was able to take a powerful hit from GARP head-on and crash into the ground without taking much damage so we have seen that Marco can easily take a hit he also possesses great endurance and stamina being able to take multiple direct hits from Keyes Roos laser beams while he was unable to defend himself because his devil fruit ability was shut down with si presume stone handcuffs yet after all these laser attacks he was still able to get back up and lastly he also possesses incredible speed being able to quickly get from one place to another such as when he defended white beard from Kizer OU's laser attack in only a matter of seconds so although in terms of his physical abilities his defense is his weak point he more than makes up for it with his devil fruit ability which we will assume discuss but otherwise physically Marco is definitely very well-rounded and very strong making his physical abilities useful in almost every situation and allowing him to fight toe-to-toe with some of the strongest characters in the series in regards to his intelligence Marco is what I would like to call moderately intelligent from what we've seen about his character it's hard to classify because Marco hasn't really shown any signs of stupidity or any signs of very intelligent so in terms of intelligence I would like to say he is just your average man but since we also don't know much about his intelligence I would like to give him the benefit of the doubt and say he's smarter than your average person Marco does know how to think fast and react quickly during a fight along with how to properly execute his attacks at a moment's notice and he's also very perceptive so I would like to think that because he has such a quick mind he would be smarter than your average person but to be fair since we can only assume we'll just say that he's somewhere between average and above average intelligence when it comes to his hockey we know that Marco is able to use armament haki and he is able to use it pretty proficiently in fact he was able to successfully use his hockey to kick away both keys uru and Kuzon whom are both logia users and can only be physically forced to be tangible through the use of armament haki marco also hits a Kazuki with a haki imbued attack but all's I did was irritate him so from this we can likely assume thats a Kazuki's haki is just some sort of next-level [ __ ] because being the successor of whitebeard's crew who was a Yank oh we can assume that marco is on a similar level to white beard himself maybe not quite on white beards level but he's still pretty close so with that we can also assume that his ability to use haki is definitely much stronger than it appears however sense marco cannot use conqueror haki or observation haki he does lack variety now on to his devil fruit which let me just say his devil fruit is one of the main reasons I believe Marco deserves to be on this list although the devil fruit itself has not been officially named it is one of the only two currently revealed mythical xoan devil fruits and it allows marco to turn into a phoenix like all normals own devil fruits this one gives marco increased physical abilities and it also gives him the ability to fly when he transforms into the phoenix his feet also transform into talons which he can use to slash his enemies and since he can fly these talons also come in handy for aerial attacks just like most others own users marco also has a human beast form where he can transform into a mixture of his human and phoenix form however unlike other zones marco can choose where he wants his body to transform at will so for instance if he wanted his head to transform into the phoenix while the rest of his body remains in human form he could do that Marco generally just chooses to transform his arms into wings so he can still use his powerful kicks on his enemy and Marco also occasionally likes to transform his arms and legs but keep his torso and head in his human form now so far this might just sound like your average xoan double fruit but it gets much much better this fruit also has an additional two different abilities that make it seem like a xoan logia and a paramecia devil fruit all in one and if these abilities come from the blue flames the Phoenix emits you see these flames allow Marco to regenerate any wounds he receives because of this Marco is able to take enormous amounts of damage and still come out as if he was never hurt in the first place also since Marco can generate these flames selectively on his body he can also heal whichever parts he wants whenever he wants and the process of regeneration takes only a matter of seconds so because he has this regeneration ability his fruit also has the characteristic of a paramecia devil fruit which is very useful this regeneration ability is essentially his ultimate defense like I was talking about earlier because any hit Marco can take he can also heal instantly meaning that he must have some high pain tolerance and endurance to be able to take so many hits even if they only hurt him for a moment and the reason this fruit also appears to have some logia capabilities is because it appears as though attacks can pass right through him when he is in his Phoenix form we first saw this when Marco flew up to the execution platform while being shot multiple times by Marines and each bullet passed right through him and didn't seem to affect him whatsoever however shortly after he was struck down from a punch by GARP which was more than likely infused with hockey so this fruit is so unique because it has the characteristics of a xoan logia and paramecia making it one of the most useful devil fruits of all time and finally let's talk about his connections his biggest and most notable ally was definitely white beard before his death although since white beard is dead this can no longer count as an ally but since white beards death Marco has taken over as the captain of the white beard crew so although white beard is dead his crew still remains as Marco's most notable Ally which this crew was made up of 1,600 men and I do imagine that many of these men fell the Battle of Marine 4-door have since left the crew but I'm willing to bet at least 400 of them remain which is still quite a few on top of that white beard also had 43 different crews who were serving under him so I'm willing to bet that Marko still has at least half of these crews as his allies even if they don't directly serve under him and they would be willing to help him if need be so already Marko has a crew and potentially a fleet on his side along with great influence Jinbei and the fish man pirates are also allies of white beard meaning that they are likely now allies of Marko and on top of that he also now has Luffy as an ally and as we stated earlier Luffy has a great deal of allies on his side giving Marko a much bigger set of connections from the ones he already has and finally although I wouldn't exactly call them allies Marko is on good terms with the young coach shanks meaning that if the two had some sort of common enemy they would probably be more than willing to help each other out so although he may not have the most powerful allies on his side he still has some very powerful ones although it should also be noted that since Blackbeard defeated the white beard pirates along with Marko during the time skip his current whereabouts or status are currently unknown meaning that a lot of his allies also could have perished so even if it may seem like Marko is lacking a bit compared to some of the other characters we've discussed I do have to disagree and say there's much more to him than meets the eye Marko was the first division commander in a yonkos crew meaning that he had to be nothing but the best to achieve that role physically Marko is very strong and pretty well-rounded and as we discussed he does have the ultimate defence so although Marko is lacking a bit in physical defense he does not need a good physical defense but considering that Marko does have the ultimate defence on his side it in turn leads to some amazing endurance and pain tolerance on his part and Marko may not have the same monster strengths as say doflamingo or cracker but at the same time he could also be just as strong and we just haven't seen his full potential intelligence wise I don't believe he would beat a character like doflamingo or maybe even cracker in a battle of brains but I think he would do pretty well because of his ability to quickly think and react to the situation at hand Marko is by no means an unintelligent character and because of that like I said I think he's slightly above average if not a bit better Marko's hockey is something we didn't really get to see a whole lot of because hockey was just being developed at that point in the story but from what we've seen him do versus what characters in the series can do now I believe that Markos hockey is much much better than it appears to be even so he was still able to inflict damage on two of the three Admirals at the time which are all logia users so the fact that his hockey was enough to injure some of the most powerful characters is still very very impressive although since he only has access to armament haki he is lacking in variety but if I had to compare his armament haki to someone else I would say it's probably closest to doflamingo level but for all we know it could be much better than that or much worse now when it comes to his devil fruit ability I would say that so far on this list Marko has the best one by a longshot previously I would have said no flamingoes fruit took the cake but Markos fruit wouldn't even let him have a piece in comparison all xoan users get an automatic strength boost so this makes Marko physically much stronger than before pushing him ahead of other characters on this list in terms of physical strength and he also has the ability to fly but Marko is also not limited like doflamingo with clouds on top of that he is able to let attacks pass through him like a logia whereas cousins ability is not tangible and still needs to be struck and for his paramecia like abilities because he can use his flames to heal any part of his body at any given time and since this ability is regeneration I'm also willing to bet that Margot could regenerate say his whole arm if it were to get cut off making him practically invincible of course Marko was still able to feel pain and get hurt but he will be good as new and only a matter of seconds so with his great endurance and pain tolerance this fruit is perfect for Marko and is without a doubt the very best devil fruit on this list so far giving him a major advantage over other characters and regarding his connections at this point in the story I will admit he falls a bit short compared to other characters but he also has another character on this list Luffy on his side meaning that the two could join their forces if need be giving Marko a huge edge and even giving Luffy more of an edge for that matter but I will say since Markos connections took a big hit with the war his biggest downfall in terms of strength is his connection which is the main reason why I won't be able to put him any higher on this list so because of all that I believe Marco the Phoenix is the sixth strongest character in one piece number five Jack the drought let's begin with his physical abilities and let me just say Jack is without a doubt the physically strongest character on this list so far to put that into perspective let's talk about how he received his nickname the drought well whenever Jack decides to rampage on an island it is said to be left in such a devastating decaying State that it looks as if the island was suffering a drought without even looking at what he can do we also know jack is very powerful because he is one of the three disasters which are the yaku kaido's three right hand men and possibly women and to be strong enough to stand directly below a Yank oh definitely implies that he is one of the strongest characters in the series but the reason I wanted to bring this up is because just like smoothie and katakuri from big mom's sweet Commander's we know little to nothing about these other two disasters but from what we know about Jack we can only assume that these other two disasters will be just as powerful as him or maybe even stronger so if we knew more about these other two disasters or anything about them for that matter I would be willing to bet that they would also be on this list so in addition to Jack I would like to give the other two disasters an honorable mention and we know literally nothing about them but I would guess that they would be right around the same number as Jack on this list so now back to Jack his physical strength endurance and stamina are also off the charts as we saw Jack fighting the minke tribes leaders for five days and five nights without taking a single break or really suffering any injuries while Jack himself was constantly fighting the two minke leaders had to take turns fighting Jack however another testament to his strength was the fact that when he went after the Marine warships to rescue doflamingo Jack himself completely destroyed two of the four ships unfortunately though due to the fact he was overpowered by five powerful characters who were on those ships which were three vice-admiral's admiral fujitora and the former fleet admiral sangoku so needless to say it makes sense to me at least that these characters ganging up on Jack was enough to suppress him however after this fight even though the news reported Jack was dead Jack more than survived and only received a few minor injuries another testament to his strength would have to be the fact that he was hit with zou Nisha's gigantic trunk and still survived and finally Jack also has the ability to survive underwater for very long periods of time which is something that we have yet to see with any other devil fruit user in the series the reason why this is possible is currently unknown but it appears as if he's just really good at holding his breath when he's angry so from this we can clearly see that Jack has some great lung capacity or some other great physical trait but to sum it all up jack is an absolute monster moving on to his intelligence I have no problem saying that jack is not an intelligent character and that is his biggest flaw the only thing that is ever on his mind is absolute destruction all jack is out to do is get his way and then destroy everything else jack is a very quick tempered character who will use any method possible to do whatever it is he sets out to do such as when his crew suggested they not attempt to rescue doflamingo because he is so heavily guarded but because jack is so level-headed he completely refused to listen and did it anyway and although Jack caused a lot of destruction he was ultimately defeated so this right here just shows he won't even listen or comprehend logic so from this I would say that Jack does not have a lot of intelligence but he is by no means completely dumb instead his mind is just corrupt with madness moving on to his ability to use haki we actually have no idea if jack is capable of using haki and normally this would be a huge downfall but I would like to give Jack the benefit of the doubt I feel like being as powerful as he is we can deduce one of two things either a jack has haki and just hasn't used it yet because I mean think about it the guy is the right hand of the Yanko Kaito himself it would be a little bit odd if he was that high up on the food chain and couldn't use haki the sweet commanders or at the very least cracker can use haki and he is at the same prestige as Jack but in the yahko big mom's crew and his hockey is the strongest we've seen thus far so I would be willing to bet that Jack has at the very least armament haki and his hockey is on the same level as crackers however if he does have hockey and it isn't quite as strong as crackers I could see it being on the same level as doflamingo's armament haki and what I mean by that is since the individual is already physically very strong their haki doesn't really boost their attacks too much at all so I would be willing to bet that Jack does have hockey and my other possibility B would be that Jack does not have the ability to use haki but even if he doesn't have haki he honestly doesn't need it either because he is literally physically stronger than any other character we've seen so far so I feel like that even if we find out Jack doesn't have the ability to use haki I really wouldn't think of it as a bad thing in Jack's case but compared to other characters on this list it is a bit of a downfall but for now we're just going to assume that Jack does have hockey and we just haven't seen it yet regarding his devil fruit Jack episodes oh no me model mammoth which is an ancient zou and devil fruit that allows Jack to transform into a mammoth or human mammoth hybrid like also in double fruits this one gives the user increased strength and in Jack's case he gains a lot of strength in his mammoth form Jack grows much much bigger than his already huge build Jack also leaves footprints in the ground just by walking and Jack can leveled multiple buildings with a single swing of his trunk and once he starts rampaging he can destroy pretty much everything in his path the one downfall of this fruit however is the fact that Jack becomes very slow due to his massive size so faster characters will be able to land high speed attacks much easier because jack is too slow to dodge or block this is by no means the best devil fruit but considering it gives Jack the ability to become much stronger than he already was I must say I'm impressed additionally I imagine that while he is in this form he also increases his defense and endurance just due to his sheer size so even if you were fast enough to land a multiple attacks on Jack he honestly might not even feel it unless you have a lot of power behind it - so because this devil fruit turns Jack into even more of a powerhouse I give it a thumbs up and finally onto Jack's connections Jack's biggest and most notable ally is of course the young coquito who is regarded as the strongest creature in the world so having an ally to someone who was stronger than Jack himself is definitely a big plus but on top of that since Jack himself is one of kaido's right-hand men jack has authority over any one below himself and therefore can command the majority of Cato's crew leading Jack to essentially have a whole fleet at his command kaito also has many other powerful allies such as X Drake and the Drake pirates scratch mana poo and doflamingo and because Kato has ties with doflamingo he also has ties to the underworld where he would purchase his smiles so because these are allied dakedo they are also allied to Jack so Jack has some very powerful allies on his side and because of that you should definitely never mess with him now why did I place Jack as number 5 on this list and not higher because he is really powerful well jack is without a doubt the physically strongest character on this list so far and his strength alone would be enough to overpower everyone previously on the list and his physical strength is also further increased with his devil fruit ability meaning that it is very beneficial to Jack helping him destroy Islands kill people and whatever else he wants to use it for Jack also has a very powerful set of allies on his side although I don't think he would ever let them help him simply because Jack seems like the kind of person who doesn't work too well with others but out of these three things his strength beats the rest of the list so far his devil fruit is equal if not better than some of them like for instance since it shows no signs of physically harming Jack with use or with certain techniques so far it is automatically better than Luffy and crackers devil fruits and he has some of the most powerful connections so far on this list but definitely not the most powerful but even though these characteristics are definitely some of the best we've seen he does have two downfalls which are his hockey or lack of and his intelligence for his hockey I won't repeat myself too much but I personally believe Jack has the ability to use hockey and we just haven't seen him do it yet so I don't really want to count his hockey as a downfall quite yet but I just want to make it really clear right now that if Jack ends up not being able to use hockey I will take back what I said but for now I'm willing to likely say he can use it very proficient Lee now with his intelligence that a different story because I feel like Jack would not do very well in a fight against doflamingo or cracker because they would be able to easily use their intelligence to get the best of him in a game of mines I feel like Jack would lose every time and because of that main fact I simply cannot place him any higher on this list but I will also refuse to put him any lower because Jack's overwhelming strength alone is enough to overlook his weakness so because of all that I believe that Jack the drought is the fifth strongest character in one piece number four Dracul Hawkeye's mihawk regarding his physical abilities they are nothing short of amazing me Hawk is called the greatest swordsman in the world of one piece and there is a good reason for it so in terms of hand-to-hand combat or fist to fist we have yet to see him show his skills but his true strength lies behind his swordsmanship and from his abilities with a sword we've seen time and time again that he possesses superhuman strength to begin mihawk has two different swords that we've seen him use the first is kogatana which is basically me hogs butter knife that he wears around his neck and uses it to eat but if he also deems his opponent unworthy he will use this weapon against them and you may think well what the hell could he do to me with a butter knife well let me just say even a mere butter knife is a deadly weapon in the hands of the greatest swordsman in the world and we know that because he was able to easily defeat roronoa zoro back in east blue and Zorro was by no means weak back then so the fact that mihawk was able to take him down with such a puny weapon is super impressive and his second weapon is his legendary sword yirou which is a gigantic seven foot tall black blade in the shape of a crucifix because this sword is so huge and mihawk can still swing it with both immense strength and speed we can easily see that he is a physical powerhouse and with this sword mihawk can cause some serious damage such as when he single-handedly took out 50 ships and over 5000 men by himself when he went after don krieg and right before a vicious storm for that matter another thing that should be noted is that his first appearance to the audience he cut a humungous ship in half with a single swing of his sword so me Hawk was able to cut through a ton of wood steel and more with just one swing additionally me Hawk has a number of different techniques that he can use with his sword which are ko Kudo Ison which is where me hawk swings his sword to create a gigantic invisible flying slash attack that can cut through anything and everything in its path we saw this technique at marine for it and it was able to cut a gigantic iceberg completely in half koku doco getsu which is where me hawk slashes his sword so quickly that it creates some sort of cutting energy that can also seemingly cut through anything however this cutting energy does not travel a great range kokuto Saku which is a counter-attack that me Hawk uses by grabbing his sword while it's on his back with both hands he then waits for his opponent to get close before launching a Lightspeed downward slash at his opponent shi Wu house on Gehrke which is where me Hawk creates a downward slash so fast and powerful that it creates more cutting energy that travels a great speed through the ground and from this attack we also learned that this cutting energy is powerful enough to cut through steel as it easily took down mr. won and finally this last attack is unnamed but was called the world's strongest slash by a marine me Hawk used this technique to gauge his power in comparison to white beard and sent a giant flying slash attack towards him it traveled very quickly and had enough power behind it to cut through tons of ice but this attack was stopped by Diamond to jozu so from this we can either assume that me Hawk can cut through diamond but he was not expecting to need to cut through diamond so he held back his true power or he is not strong enough to cut through diamond and as the final testament to his strength me Hawk also used to have legendary duels with the yonkos shanks and saw him as a worthy rival the fact that me Hawk is able to go up against someone at that level of power by itself is amazing but the fact that they fought near equal truly shows how strong me Hawk really is aside from his strength me Hawk also has amazing eyesight being able to easily track Luffy while he was used his gear second speed in the middle of a chaotic battlefield and being able to pinpoint his exact location and release a long-range slash at Luffy while so much chaos was happening around them now that's impressive me Hawk is also so skilled with his eyesight and swordsmanship that he is able to block bullets with his sword or even change the trajectory of the bullets with the flat part of the blade it is unknown if his amazing eyesight has anything to do with his hawk eyes themselves or if he possesses observation haki moving on to his intelligence me Hawk is definitely one of the most intelligent characters on this list mainly shown in his analytical fighting style and decision-making mihawk is very good at judging someone's strengths and knowing when he needs to test them for instance he was able to judge that Zorro was nowhere near his own power and therefore used his butter knife against him or when me hawk was unsure how strong white beard was compared to his own strength so he sent a flying slash attack at him as a test me Hawk clearly knows his own strengths and capabilities and that is one of his greatest assets because he also knows when he is in over his head and should back down he is also skilled enough to travel around the Grand Line and nothing more than a coffin shaped raft with one sail all by himself showing that he is also able to navigate the Seas easily and the final testament of his intellect involves his teachings which we will get to momentarily but overall me Hawk is a very smart character who knows his own limits and is good at seeing the potential in others making him even more dangerous next we'll talk about his hockey which unfortunately we have not seen him use however me hog did teach Zorro how to use and infuse armament haki into his swords over the time-skip which shows us that not only does me hawk know how to use it but he is also so proficient with it that he is able to teach it to someone else and on top of that I'm also willing to bet he can use observation haki but we don't know for sure but let's just put this into perspective me Hawk is already one of the strongest characters we've talked about so far and that is without him ever using haki so imagine what he could possibly do if he imbued his sword with hockey for instance I bet that with hockey mihawk would be able to easily cut diamond jozu right into so the fact that he could improve his strength with hockey and he can use it so proficiently that he can teach it to another individual is very impressive next up let's talk about his devil fruit oh oh wait a second that's right mihawk is so far the only character on this list that does not have a devil fruit which means that he has the ability to swim unlike all the rest definitely a plus however two things I want to bring up is that mihawk is strong enough with his sword to the point where he would never need a devil fruit and if he were to eat one it would just potentially make him weaker and the other thing I want to bring up is that some people out there do believe that mihawk has already ate a devil fruit but personally I think that's a load of crap so I guess we'll have to see but for now we are going with the assumption that he has not eaten one and finally let's talk about his connections which honestly he doesn't have very many he was formerly a rival to shanks but since shanks lost his arm mihawk wants nothing to do with him but I guess the two are still somewhat friendly and mihawk is also currently allied with the world government because he himself is a shichi bukai but me hawk only really allies himself with them when it is convenient for both the world government and himself so calling the world government and a lie to me Hawk is a bit far-fetched when it comes down to needing the world government's help for a change me Hawk also has a connection with Perona who I think would fight by his side if need be so I mean it's something but at the same time this lack of allies also works in me Hawks favor because he is more of a lone wolf he fights alone travels alone and that's just the way he likes it me Hawk is what I would consider a one-man army even up against some of the toughest foes so although I do need to give him the L when it comes to having powerful allies in his case it kind of works out because he wants to work alone but sometimes you also can't always do things by yourself so why do I think me Hawk is more powerful than the other characters previously listed well to put it simply me Hawk is a very special case in this series he is physically a superhuman his strength alone is enough to cut through almost anything with a sword in his hands his speed is equal if not faster than someone like Luffy who is incredibly fast with some of their techniques he has incredible eyesight and observation skills being able to quickly pick out everything in his surroundings and even pick out his target like a needle in a haystack he is also considered the greatest swordsman in the world a title that is by far something that's not easy to obtain just imagine how many people must try and challenge him for that title and what mihawk had to accomplish to get that title in the first place also something that I want to bring up is that so far mihawk is the only character on this list that has yet to receive even one little scratch meaning that he is one of the best of the best if nobody can even land a hit on him he is also a very smart character being able to analyze any situation or character and execute a plan accordingly he is also smart and skilled enough to teach hockey showing that he is also very proficient with it himself it may also be a downfall to some that he doesn't have a devil fruit but mihawk is so strong on his own that he will just never need one and finally I must say his lack of connections is really his only big flaw so compared to Luffy mihawk is the obvious winner in terms of strength and intelligence when it comes to hockey I feel like me Hawk is probably better at it but we also don't exactly have any examples I would like to say that if cracker was almost able to cut off luffy's arm while he was in gear fourth that the greatest swordsman in the world would be able to do it without a second thought because although cracker isn't bad with a sword by any means he's not even close to me Hawks level so personally I would put me Hawks hockey above Luffy until proven otherwise and although me Hawk doesn't have a devil fruit he proved at the battle of marine 4 that he would not need one to take Luffy down but if for some reason he did need one me Hawk could always just swim out to sea where Luffy can't get him and in regards to connections me Hawk will lose pretty much every time but since he excels and everything else me Hawk surpasses Luffy compared to Kuzon I feel like me Hawk would still be able to defeat him when it comes to physical abilities cusan is indeed very powerful but he is deaf not strong enough to stop a sword slash from me hawk me Hawk is also more intelligent so he would be able to easily counteract anything who's on throws at him and since me Hawk is able to use haki Kuzon also isn't safe to use his logia abilities for defense we've also seen that me Hawk has no problem cutting through the ice Kuzon creates as we saw him cut through it easily multiple times during the battle of Marine Ford so Kuzon is definitely at the disadvantage except even Kuzon has stronger allies so I guess cousins got that going for him if nothing else compared to doflamingo I feel the two would have a very interesting fight because I feel like me Hawk may be one of the few people who could actually cut through doflamingo strings with his sword but will likely never know for sure if that's actually possible but the two are very similar with both strength and intelligence although when it comes to haki I feel like me Hawk would have the upper hand because I believe his hockey abilities would be something above even crackers abilities doflamingo his devil fruit would definitely be a problem for me Hawk to deal with but I don't think it's enough to defeat me hot by any means especially if me Hawk is able to cut the strings but because me Hawk has such good eyesight he would be able to easily see the strings and find a way to get around them or block them or whatever else and finally once again unfortunately for me Hawk doflamingo has the better connections so me Hawk falls short on that end in regards to cracker I feel like they are both equal in strength me Hawk has equal or better hockey to cracker from what I stated earlier and in terms of intelligence although cracker is very deceptive I think me Hawk would have the edge because he is more observant and would be able to easily see through these deceptions and in regards to crackers devil fruit ability I feel like his biscuit soldiers would be like cake for me Hawk to take care of no matter how many cracker produced and finally once again me Hawks only flaw compared to cracker is his connections next up is Marco the Phoenix now this one comes pretty close as I'll explain but even so me Hawk still comes out on top in my opinion so in regards to strength Marco is definitely very powerful even without the boost from his oh and fruit but me Hawk is definitely stronger being able to effortlessly cut through steel is something I can't see my being able to do intelligence wise Marco also falls short because since me Hawk is so observant and analytical while Marco is not me hawk would be able to counteract anything Marco threw at him in regards to hockey I feel like Marco is a lot better than what was shown but I still feel like me Hawk has him beat as well now with his devil fruit this is where things get a little tricky because I feel like me Hawk would have a very very hard time with this since Marco can regenerate at will so even if me Hawk were to deal some serious damage to Marco that damage is likely not permanent but with that being said if it really came down to it I feel like me Hawk may try to chop Marco into a ton of pieces while using haki to try and defeat him but who knows maybe it would maybe it wouldn't but I also feel that Marcos attacks wouldn't be enough to stop me Hawk which leads me to call this one a stalemate because we simply don't know how that fight would play out and finally me Hawk loses in terms of useful allies once again now finally when compared to Jack the drought I think this one is also very close jack is definitely as strong or probably stronger than me Hawk because they both have the ability to destroy pretty much anything they come in contact with but in terms of overall physical ability me Hawk has amazing eyesight to help him see through Jack's attacks and me Hawk also has great speed whereas Jack is very slow which I would say gives him the edge physically but not by much intelligence wise I don't even really need to explain myself because Jack is not a very intelligent character in terms of hockey since we haven't really seen anything from either character we'll just assume that since they're around the same level of power their hockey would be about equal now for Jack's double fruit although he becomes much stronger I feel like since he also becomes very slow me Hawk would had the edge because he can move very quickly but since Jack is also much stronger in this form if he did manage to hit him me Hawk might be done for so for this one I also want to call it a stalemate and finally for connections me Hawk takes the El once again so as you can see me Hawk only comes out on top by a very narrow margin compared to Jack which is why I placed him above but no higher than that I feel like as you can see me hawk is fitting for his name as the greatest swordsman in the world but when it comes to me Hawks allies that's where he will lose every time so because of that me Hawk is the fourth strongest character in one piece number three Borsellino before we get started I just want to clarify to you guys right now that I'm going to be referring to him as Kees aru because it's easier for me to say physically Kees aru is a monster being the rank of Admiral means that he is one of the marines strongest fighters and he definitely shows that he is his strength alone is enormous for instance he is able to hold down whitebeard's be sento with just one foot in considering that white beard was the strongest man in the world it's a real accomplishment to achieve that additionally Kees aru was able to fight one-on-one with the former yahko on pretty much equal footing most of his attacks are kicked based in conjunction with his devil fruit abilities but his kicks alone are also something to fear additionally he was also able to fight against Silver's railay until their battle resulted in a stalemate which being able to go up against to the former pirate Kings right-hand man is a great accomplishment as well and with this strength I believe that Kees aru is by far one of the strongest Keys aru also has amazing durability and endurance as for instance he was able to take a hockey imbued kick from Marco and got up without even a single scratch Kees aru also has borderline superhuman hearing as he was able to hear activity underwater before the war at marine Ford took place and finally Kees aru has amazing precision and accuracy mainly in conjunction with using his devil fruit ability but you'll see what I mean later on next up is his intelligence which is somewhat of a mystery to me you see Kees aru's personality is very hard to read therefore so is his level of intelligence Kees aru puts on this very lazy calm nature making him seem as though he's only moderately intelligent like who's on he also tends to taunt his enemies during battle to try and aggravate them or get under their skin which makes me think he's doing this as some sort of technique to overpower his enemies by making them lose their Kizer ooh also appears to be very absent-minded and irresponsible when it comes to his way of justice such as using so much force in one kick against some pirates that he ended up breaking part of a mangrove tree so from all of this it makes it seem as if he's rather dumb if nothing else but honestly I think this is all just an act on Kizer OU's part so people don't figure out how smart he actually is and instead he is using some sort of deceptive methods like cracker for instance to fool his enemies and even his allies for that matter so because I can't figure out if he's actually a bit dumb or if he's actually very intelligent let's just settle in the middle saying he's average or slightly above average oh-o-oh goon in regards to his hockey since he is above the rank of vice-admiral we know for a fact that he can use it and we also know that to achieve the rank of Admiral his hockey must be something on another level the only instance of hockey we've seen Kizer who used so far is when he used armament haki in conjunction with the other three Admirals to create a shield so much like what I said about Kuzon it has been two years since then so his hockey has without a doubt become even stronger and I also imagine it was a lot stronger to begin with but since hockey was just being introduced in that part of the story there was still a lot we didn't know and a lot that was yet to be shown so because of the level Kizer was on already I think it's safe to assume he has hockey abilities comparable to someone like doflamingo or better but as far as we know he can't use the other two types of hockey leading him to have a slight disadvantage with variety next up is his devil fruit which is the pika-pika no me otherwise known as the glint glint fruit this fruit is a logia type devil fruit and it allows the user to create control and transform into light at will making the user a light human this devil fruit allows Kees Roux to not only transform into light to avoid being hit but to also create laser beams travel at light speed and even perform a partial transformation that connects physical attacks at light speed which are extremely devastating attacks some of his techniques include yata no kagami which is where Kees aru reflects light off of any surface he chooses include places where the light doesn't touch and after his reflections reach to the place where he wants them to go he can travel to this reflected point at the speed of light it should also be noted that with the speed of light on his side Keys aru is currently the fastest man in one piece being able to travel 299,792,458 m/s so let's just say that keys aru is very hard to catch Amaterasu oh [ __ ] hang on that's the wrong one anyway Amaterasu which is where keys aru points his finger into the air or at a specific enemy and then emits a massive flash of light that is so bright it will blind his opponent and anyone in the near vicinity meaning keys aru has some useful ways of also stunning his enemies temporarily Amano murakumo which is where keys aru creates a sword out of light and then uses it as a weapon pretty much it should also be noted that this light is then solidified meaning that it is no longer intangible and cannot be broken or passed through by hockey at least with what we know currently and yah see Connie no magatama which is where Keys aru crosses his arms and fires a ton of laser particles all at once keys aru can also control their trajectory being able to focus them on one single person or a whole area these light particles also have great piercing power as they were capable of piercing right through Kuzon zeiss and deep into the ocean without losing speed or power keys aru can also create laser beams at will from his hands or feet that travel in a straight line it should also be noted that since keys aru himself is so fast he can easily keep up with others who are quite quick because of that he is very accurate and precise with where he fires his lasers and it is very hard for him to miss his target considering how fast his lasers travel another thing that should be noted about this fruit is that keys aru can transform his entire body into light at any given time and transport himself to a different location so it is also very hard to land a hit on him if you don't know what you're doing or you just aren't fast enough and since he can travel so quickly his normal kicks also travel at that abnormal speed leading to an insanely powerful kick so overall this fruit is definite one that should be feared and I'm willing to call it one of the best on this list regarding keys aru's allies he does not have a large variety but he does have the world government and the Marines on his side and considering that he is such a high ranking member he has a great deal of the Marines at his command and since the world government and the Marines are such a massive entity Keys aru has some of the strongest characters ready to fight by his side at a moment's notice such as Fleet Admiral sak uzuki admiral fujitora and any of the Vice Admirals because keys aru is also of such a high set as he can order a buster call which is one of the most feared things in the world otherwise known as the world governments form of absolute justice where they can wipe out entire Islands if they need to currently only a maximum of 10 people are able to initiate a Buster call so the fact that Keyes aru has that kind of power because of his connections gives him an even bigger edge additionally Kaiser who can also give permission to a lower ranking world government member to initiate one if this situation calls for it so although besides the world government Keyes aru doesn't have a lot of other options the world government is all he needs to have some of the strongest and most feared allies in the world so what do I think of his abilities and how does he compare to the other characters on this list well in terms of his physical abilities he is most definitely a monster but for instance he is not as strong as jack physically although his defense and durability are off the charts when it comes to the fact that even a hockey imbued kick wouldn't leave a scratch on him additionally with the added defense of being able to turn into light and let attacks bypass through him or even turn into light and quickly move out of the way to dodge attacks I would say that Keyes aru definitely has the best defensive capabilities so far and since he is the fastest man in the world of one piece he also out speeds everyone else on this list making him much more dangerous so other than his physical strength by itself being inferior to Jack Keyes aru is the strongest when it comes to his physical abilities and beats all of the other characters so far in terms of intelligence like I said Keyes aru is very hard to read but I personally don't believe that he is unintelligent by any means in fact I personally believe he is much smarter than he lets on but since we are unsure of his actual intelligence I'm just going to say he's slightly above-average meaning that other characters such as doflamingo cracker and me hawk beat him in terms of intellect but I'm also not sure if their minds could move fast enough to comprehend how fast Kees LaRue is moving although they do contain the mental capacity to outsmart him if he is indeed not as smart as I think so although Kees uru isn't the best in terms of intelligence he still beats characters like Luffy Jack and Kuzon in terms of hockey since he is an admiral in the Marines his hockey must be much better than what we got to see and I imagine his hockey being around the same level as cracker but since we don't know for sure it's hard to gauge exactly how powerful it is although we can also assume that after the time skip his hockey has no doubt improved meaning that Kees aru is even stronger than he was before so overall I'm going to say that Kees aru has the same level of hockey as cracker or doflamingo until proven otherwise which in turn means he beats many of the characters on this list moving on to his devil fruit it is without a doubt the second-best on this list beaten only by Marco the Phoenix but unfortunately for Marco Kees uru beats him in every other aspect besides his devil fruit meaning Marco takes the El for this one but with a fruit this powerful Keys Roo is capable of many things I feel like since his lasers are so powerful he can easily overpower almost every character on this list along with the speed his devil fruit gives him it makes it so pretty much everyone on this list is hopeless in taking him down I feel like me Hawk would definitely have a solid chance since he has such great eyesight mental and physical skills but at the same time this amount of speed may just be too much for him to handle so I would say if the two were to fight one-on-one it would be very hard to imagine who would come out on top but even though the two are pretty much neck-and-neck Kizer ooh does beat me Hawk in one thing which would be his connections so because the two are evenly matched in almost every other category it only makes sense that Keyes aru would be above him due to his connections and influence he has because honestly there is no way that me Hawk is surviving a Buster call at least not easily and in addition to that Keyes LaRue can also revoke a shichi bukas Ted at any time which means that if mihawk does want to keep his connection to the world government he has to somewhat get along with Kizer ooh so in that case Kees aru has me hawks hands tied additionally other characters on this list do have equal ground in terms of allies if we look at the numbers such as doflamingo luffy cracker and even jack but Kees aru also has something that the rest of them do not which is the ability to initiate a Buster call and although Luffy survived one before he wouldn't really have it easy the next time jack has already fallen when faced with multiple strong marines so he would be toast whether or not he would actually be killed is another story and judo flamenco does have a lot of influence just like keys aru because of his equal rights agreement with the celestial dragons so I would put these two on equal grounds in terms of allies and with cracker since we don't know just how massive big mom's crew is along with her powerful allies we can't say for sure if she would be even worse or better off in terms of influence and allies so for now we'll put crackers connections on par with Kees rue because there are very few powers that can beat the power or match the power of the world government and right now those would be the Yonko so because of all that I believe that Kees aru is the third strongest character in one piece number two sak uzuki physically sak uzuki is the definition of a superhuman or maybe a better term would be a monster in terms of his strength it is unimaginable not only did he show us time and time again throughout the Marine Ford war that he was strong enough to take out enemy after enemy but another testament of his strength would be the fact that he was able to stop whitebeard's be sento with just one leg which also keep in mind that white beard was considered the strongest man in the world at that point in time so the fact of that sock uzuki could stop his weapon was a real accomplishment additionally another testament to his strength could be the fact that he was able to battle with Kuzon for 10 whole days on an island in a fight to the death and came out victorious another amazing physical trait would be his stamina not only was he able to fight enemy after enemy throughout the entire Marine Ford war without getting tired worn-down at all but he was also able to constantly fight for ten whole days against Kuzon like we just stated so the fact he was able to continue fighting for that long means his stamina must be off the charts also just like Kuzon and Kees aru sach uzuki has very good hearing as he was able to hear activity underwater before the war began and finally sikozu ki has what I would say is the best durability we've seen so far in the series this is evident by the fact that he was able to take two point-blank quake blows from white beard and even after all of that he was still able to get back up and fight and to put into perspective how strong these quake abilities are one of them was powerful enough to split marine fort in half so even with all that power being forced down sach azuki's throat he still managed to get back up and fight so if you ask me it seems as if there's no stopping this man next up is his intelligence and let me just say that sikozu ki is a very very intelligent man and much like cracker he is also very good in the art of deception accepts a Kazuki deceives his enemies in a different way which is manipulation what's a Kazuki does is use the knowledge he has about his opponents to manipulate them into doing his bidding for instance he deceived squard into thinking that white beard had betrayed him in turn leading squad to attempt to kill white beard then we saw this manipulation once again when he insulted white beard knowing that ace would take the bait and try and attack him instead of trying to escape which ended up resulting in aces death because sac uzuki aimed his attack at luffy instead of ace knowing that ace would jump in to save him so as you can see he knows how to get into people's heads to make them do exactly what he wants so when it comes to a battle of intelligence there are very few people who would be able to resist his manipulation giving sac uzuki a huge edge in terms of hockey Sokka Suki has some of the best hockey abilities we've seen or at least if it was hockey he was using at the very least we know that he can use armament haki as he used it with the other Admirals to make a shield but something that stands out to me that truly makes this man a monster is the fact that he was hit with two different haki attacks at once from both Marko Vista but even though Marko and Vista are some very powerful characters in fact Marko even made it on this list but even aside from that neither of their attacks were able to bypass his intangibility let alone even hurt him at all and sack uzuki himself even commented that hockey attacks were irritating and that's exactly all those attacks did was irritate him so from this we can either assume two things either a sack azuki's hockey is so far beyond what we can imagine that he is able to take on hockey attacks that only result in mild irritation or be it has nothing to do with hockey and he is just on a whole different level of power for the sake of things making sense I would like to say it's just that his hockey is otherworldly but I also believe this could be just because he is so strong but even if that wasn't his hockey you need to keep in mind that because he is now Fleet Admiral and above the rank of vice-admiral he is automatically capable of using hockey and considering that he is such a high rank it can only be inferred that his hockey abilities are off the charts and he is capable of a lot more than what we got to see at Marine Ford like the other Admirals in that battle so because of that I believe that sikozu Key has the strongest haki on this list so far but if for some reason that turns out to be untrue when we get to see his hockey abilities in the series later on I will take back that statement next up is his devil fruit which is the magu magu no me otherwise known as the mag mag fruit this devil fruit is a logia type and allows the user to create control and transform into magma at will turning the user into a magma human the main thing sikozu key uses this fruit for is to create magma that he can use to attack his opponents with this magma in question is hot enough to melt large icebergs instantly and boil seawater when the two come in contact additionally the magma is so hot that when sikozu key uses an attack a nearby weapons of his comrades were shown to melt and he is able to melt solid earth and rock easily because this fruit is a logia he can let attacks pass through him as long as they are not imbued with hockey but as we said earlier it seems as though even hockey is not enough to pass this intangibility additionally if someone were to use a physical attack against sac uzuki such as a punch and he let it pass through him his magma would in turn melt that person's arm so having this magma ability also serves as the ultimate defense as it makes it much harder to hit him without risking your life this fruit was also able to turn half of an island into a constant blazing Inferno after being used consecutively for ten whole days when compared to the mera mera Nomi this fruit is currently regarded as the superior of the two as the magma abilities were enough to overpower the fire and in turn kill ace who was the user and finally this fruit also allows sokka's Duque to travel at extremely high speeds by launching himself into the air like an actual volcano some of the techniques a Kazuki uses with this fruit are daifuku which is where he transforms his fists into pure lava before throwing it at his enemies this attack also causes an explosion of volcanic rock and magma that will melt almost anything it touches Ryu se Kazan which is basically where sikozu ki fires a ton of flaming fists like his previous technique into the air resulting in a mixture between a volcanic eruption of flaming magma fists flying all over the place and a ton of small meteors flying down from the sky this attack causes massive damage to the surrounding area and was used to destroy the ice covered battlefield along with everyone standing on it and it also boiled the water beneath leading to anybody who fell in getting severely burned inu gommi Guren which is a wave of magma shaped like a dog's head that psycho zukie sends flying at his opponent and finally Mako which is where Sokka tsuki covers his arm with magma and his hand transforms into what appears to be a magma claw he then lunges at his opponent causing massive damage if it hits them for instance this attack was enough to burn off a big chunk of whitebeard's head with only a glancing blow now let's put that into perspective for a second this attack was enough to take off part of the strongest man in the world's head that alone shows just how powerful this devil fruit ability is and although it is not quite as useful as Marcos devil fruit or Kizer ooze it is by far one of the most powerful fruits we've seen in the series giving sack uzuki one of the most dangerous abilities now finally onto his connections sack azuki's main and most a notable connection is the world government and the Marines because sikozu key has such a high role within the world government he himself holds a great deal of power being the fleet admiral he is in command of all the Marines he is also able to issue a Buster call which I won't go over what that is since we just talked about it so basically Sokka zuki is in charge of an entire army additionally he also directly speaks with the goro say which are the most powerful force in the world government meaning Sokka Suki also has high influence additionally he also has control of all the current Chichibu chi meaning that they are also under his command should he summon them although he does not trust them one bit it has also been stated by Jin BAE that cents a Kisuke became the fleet admiral the organization has become much stronger than before this is likely because sac uzuki is all about absolute justice doing anything he needs to achieve that no matter what it may be he also considers Marines who desert their post a traitor and those who do not fight for absolute justice should not be called a marine so sac uzuki has no doubt sent to this ideology throughout the entire system strengthening them along with it other than this sake Zuki does not have any notable allies but considering that he is the fleet admiral he has all the vice Admirals and the admirals Kizer ooh issue and green bull at his command meaning he has some of the most powerful characters under his command so honestly Sokka Zuki doesn't need any other allies to be one of the strongest in the series so what do I think of his abilities and how does he compare with the other characters on this list well in regards to his physical abilities Sokka Suki is definitely one of the strongest in terms of strength and stamina but even if those weren't enough for him to be considered a powerhouse he has the strongest durability we've seen so far in the series and I forgot to mention it before but in terms of regular speed he is definitely above average but nothing overly special however what he lacks in physical speed he can make up with the speed caused from his magma when he shoots himself in the air making him travel very very fast so how does his physical abilities compare to others on this list well in terms of strength I would like to say he matches well with Jack I would still say that jack is stronger in terms of raw strength but that's the closest comparison I can see for stamina sikozu Key has proven to take the cake since he was able to fight for ten whole days without stopping against Kuzon in addition winning the fight so although Kuzon was our previous winner for stamina sack uzuki has stole the title and when it comes to durability he so far beats every other character on this list so although he is lacking in physical speed he isn't slow by any means like Jack either so because of all that I would say sikozu he is physically the most well-rounded character so far moving on to his intelligence a Kazuki is a master in manipulation and deception and he has proven himself smart enough to lead the Marines and defeat his enemies I would rank his intelligence above cracker but below or equal to doflamingo and mihawk in comparison although something Saki Zuki can do that the others can't is easily get under their skin which as we've seen with doflamingo that is not very hard to do all Saki Zuki would need to do is insult a member of doflamingo x' family and sack uzuki would already have doflamingo x' wrath for me hawk i feel like the two are around the same level because me Hawk would be able to see right through what's a Kazuki is trying to do and not fall for his trap but who knows what else he has up his sleeve so in terms of intelligence he may not be the smartest character in the series but he is one of the top three at least in terms of intelligence on this list next up is haki and like I said before either he has the best hockey we've seen so far or it would be around the same level as someone like cracker so just from that simple comparison right there we know that his hockey is at the very least tied with the strongest sense of armament haki we've seen so far however since he does not have access to the other two types he does fall a bit shorter because he lacks variety to a character like Luffy who has access to all three his devil fruit is by far one of the strongest and deadliest in the series just by its destructive power alone the only two devil fruits we've talked about that compared to it would be Kees aru's devil fruit and Marko's devil fruit now I do think Sokka Sookie's fruit is not superior to either of these fruits but it does have a lot of useful qualities these fruits do not for instance when someone were to hit Kizer ooh without haki and have their attack pass right through him nothing happens unless you Loki get skin cancer or something like that whereas if they did the same to sock uzuki they would lose whatever they hit him with because the magma would melt it so if they used a sword say goodbye to that if they used a leg r.i.p your leg so sack uzuki's defense also becomes a great offense however Kizer ooze fruit also has many destructive properties similar to sack azuki's in terms of its explosive power with his lasers these lasers may not cause as much damage as sokka's ookies magma but they sure do travel a lot faster so when I compare these two fruits I feel that sack azuki's fruit has a lot more destructive power behind it that also comes with a useful defense that is also an offense whereas Keys aru's makes him the fastest man alive which in turn can lead to some devastating quick attacks thats a Kazuki would never see coming so I would consider these fruits equals in terms of how useful and strong they are but I will be giving keys rouge devil fruit the wind because of how scary his fruit can truly be if he decides to go all-out with that speed and destructive power now in comparison to Marco's fruit the two are also at a bit of a stalemate because sikozu keys magma has been shown unable to penetrate Marcos flames meaning that the two cancel each other out but of course Marco also has his regeneration and sack uzuki has his destructive power Marco can fly sikozu ki can erupt Marco can let attacks pass through him and soak in psychos ooh key so really they each have a lot of benefits but in my opinion even though they both have a lot of positives and equal ground I would still give the edge to Marco's fruit because his fruit allows him to do so much aside from the destruction aspect including constantly healing his wounds through regeneration which is honestly something I think very few fruits will ever be able to compare to so although sock azuki's devil fruit beats out a lot of others on this list I still wouldn't consider it the best however it is the best in terms of destructive capabilities and since he has basically all of the allies keys aru has including keys aru for that matter my opinion remains the exact same for what I said four keys aru although sikozu key can also directly communicate with the Goro say so he's got that going for him so in conclusion sikozu key has one of the most powerful connections in the world but so do other characters like doflamingo and cracker and because we don't know exactly what crackers massive amount of allies consists of we will just consider them as equal along with doflamingo for the time being so because of all that I believe that sikozu key is the second strongest character in one piece and the moment you've all been waiting for number one the four Yanko Marshall D teach or Blackbeard Charlotte Lynn Lenore big mom Kaito of the beasts and red haired shanks this one was probably pretty obvious since none of the yahko have appeared on this list until now other than mentions of how powerful they are but our number one spot is actually shared with all four of them and I do have a good reason for this as of right now we don't know a whole lot about some of these Yonko which because of my statement at the beginning of the video I can't feature them on this list unless we have enough information about them and their abilities but I decided to bend the rule a little bit considering we know a lot of information about some of the onco who were going to be on this list I really didn't see the point in leaving the other Yong ko off this list if they're all supposed to be just as powerful if not more powerful I am fully aware that each of the onco are not 100% equal in strength and some are definitely weaker than others but as of right now each of them control the Seas on somewhat equal grounds being regarded as the strongest pirates on the sea so because we don't know everything about each of the yonk oh I will be considering them all equal for the time being so what I'm going to do is go over what we know about each yonko and then at the end I'm going to give my opinion and prediction on what yakko I believe to be the strongest in turn crowning the strongest character in one nice so let us begin with the Yakko we know the most about currently which would be a Marshall D teach better known as Blackbeard physically Blackbeard is a lot more impressive than I originally thought his strength may not be the best on this list but he is definitely incredibly strong we've seen that Blackbeard possesses great strength because he was able to punch both Luffy and ace with such great force that they both flew a decent distance away you could also tell by their reaction that that punch hurt like hell it should also be noted that since Ace was a logia user Blackbeard's normal punches are able to hit him this is however due to his devil fruit ability which we will get to later we've also seen that Blackbeard was able to injure white beard with a few punches and being able to injure the strongest man in the world is of course no easy task we can also assume Blackbeard was very strong even before he ate his devil fruit because he was once considered strong enough to be offered a commander position in white beards crew and since we've seen how strong the other commanders are the fact that Blackbeard was on their level without a devil fruit is definitely impressive and another thing we should note is that the scar above shanks I was caused by Blackbeard himself back when shanks still had two arms so there is probably a lot more to Blackbeard strength that we just aren't aware of yet but by far the most impressive part of Blackbeard physically has to be his monstrous endurance a side note for this should be that Blackbeard's devil fruit allows him to absorb attacks but if he fails to absorb it in time he will still feel the full effect of whatever the attack was and it will hurt him much more than it would a normal person and to do much more damage than normal as well meaning he has to deal with a lot of pain whenever he fails to absorb an attack which happens quite often and to prove how incredible his endurance really is Blackbeard has taken on number of monsters attacks and came out alive even with his increase of pain and damage for instance he has taken two different attacks from white beard like a champ the first attack was an indirect hit and it really only seemed to annoy him rather than actually injure him and then he also took a point-blank quake bubble attack to his head and neck while being pinned down and although he was injured quite a bit from this attack he didn't die or even pass out for that matter he was also able to take a direct slash attack from whitebeard's be sent Oh without any lasting damage additionally he was also able to take a point-blank agir second attack from luffy without getting hurt too badly and even a hit from sengoku in his Buddha form while only receiving minor injuries so being able to tank all of those deadly attacks with increased damage and pain for that matter is definitely no easy task showing us that Blackbeard's endurance really is something else but unfortunately we really don't know anything else about his physical capability so we will be moving on to his intelligence and although sometimes it may not seem like it Blackbeard is a very smart man and a very patient one at that Blackbeard's intellect mainly lies inside of his own plans for personal gain making sure to get every detail just right if possible for instance his main goal was to get his hands on the Yami Yami know me so Blackbeard spent over two decades travelling with the white beard pirates just to increase his chances of finding it which of course he eventually did completing the first step of a plan he waited so long to accomplish during his time with the white beard pirates Blackbeard also recruited the first members of his crew showing that he also has great leadership of some sort if he was capable of doing that while he was still just a crew mate and Blackbeard also deliberately became a Shi chibok eye so he could bypass the gates of justice and get in to impel down just so he could recruit some of the most dangerous criminals from level six which he succeeded in doing through this plan he even outsmarted the Goro se showing just how crafty of a plan he actually pulled off although he is very smart as you can see he still does have a weakness he can't really help which is the fact that he likes to talk a little bit too much during battle which leads to him letting his guard down so I wouldn't go as far as calling Blackbeard a genius but he is definitely a pretty smart guy next up is haki which unfortunately we haven't seen Blackbeard to use haki at all however he has hinted to it before suggesting that he does have some sort of haki abilities and being that he is a young Co it would be a little bit ridiculous if he didn't have hockey so we'll just assume he does but to what extent we'll have to find out next up is his devil fruit or should I say devil fruits as I'm sure you all know Blackbeard is in possession of the Yami Yami know me otherwise known as the dark dark fruit and after somehow taking it from whitebeard's corpse the guru-guru know me otherwise known as the tremor tremor fruit how Blackbeard was able to eat two devil fruits and to live is so far unknown but I personally think since the Yami Yami no me can absorb anything I think it may have something to do with maybe absorbing the fruit allowing Blackbeard to use its ability that way another interesting thing is that right now the Blackbeard pirates are in search of very powerful devil fruits and devil fruit users for what purpose you may ask well we also don't know for sure but I think they are more than likely after these fruits so that Blackbeard can somehow gain their powers as well and just keep stocking up on useful abilities until he is absolutely untouchable but even so right now with the two devil fruits he does have Blackbeard is already almost unstoppable first let's begin with the Yami Yami no me which is a logia type devil fruit that allows the user to create and control darkness at will making the user a darkness human and I'm only going to say this once before somebody attempts to correct me in the comments this fruit is a logia not a paramecia so please for the love of God people stop saying it's a paramecia one example I can give is the fact that this fruit can absorb things into its darkness similar to how caribou can absorb things into his swamp abilities which is also a loggia type anyways onto the explanation along with controlling darkness it also allows the user to control the property of gravity that comes along with it the darkness itself is like a void that devours and crushes everything it comes in contact with and because of this the user can absorb physical matter and attacks of any type by sucking it into the darkness he creates when the user sucks something into the void it's almost similar to a black hole but unlike a black hole it doesn't destroy whatever the darkness then but rather just damages it and then stores the contents of whatever it sucked up inside the empty void we've seen this ability able to suck up a whole entire town and even people for that matter and Blackbeard can also spit up or regurgitate these items he sucked up out of the void and back into the world and when he does the town he sucked up for instance was pretty much destroyed and the people he sucked up from impel down were still alive but very heavily injured the user can also use this ability to forcefully pull the opponent to them kind of like the force pole in Star Wars regardless of whatever they're doing but the scariest ability of this fruit has to be the ability to nullify the powers of devil fruits just by simply touching the user which drains them of their abilities as long as Blackbeard is touching them this ability works on each type of devil fruit and is most useful on logia users because touching them will take away their intangibility it should also be noted that unlike sea prism stone which just prevents you from using the devil fruit abilities this route completely takes the abilities away as if the user never had them to begin with such as when Luffy no longer had the ability to stretch as soon as Blackbeard touched him as if he was never a rubber man to begin with this fruit may seem very overpowered which it definitely is but it does have a major weakness which sense the darkness also absorbs a text the user of the fruit is still vulnerable to any attacks which do not pass through the darkness they turn into and if the user fails to absorb an attack in time the user can be hurt like any normal human being or even much more according to Blackbeard now let's look at his signature techniques with this fruit which are black hole which is where Blackbeard spreads his darkness around a large area and whatever is in this area is then subjected to large amounts of gravity and are slowly pushed into the void liberation which is his follow-up technique to black hole which is where he spits everything back up that he sucked into the void beforehand and kurosu which is where Blackbeard uses his gravity power in conjunction with his arm to pull his opponent toward him where Blackbeard can then grab them nullify their ability and attack them with his massive strength so with everything we've learned about this for I can safely say it is extremely powerful Blackbeard himself has even stated that this devil fruit is the most powerful devil fruit out of them all and I can definitely see why he would say that but if that just wasn't enough Blackbeard also has the gura gura know me a paramecia devil fruit which allows the user to create vibrations similar to massive earthquakes making the user a tremor human this devil fruit was previously owned by white beard who was regarded as the strongest man in the world and it has even been said that this particular devil fruit has the power to destroy the world the main strength of this devil fruit is its ability to create or generate massive vibrations or shockwaves which can travel through pretty much any medium including the ground the sea floor and even the air itself causing massive amounts of destruction as the vibrations pass through through this destruction it is a little too easy for this devil fruit to destroy entire islands at a time however these vibrations can be stopped if they come in contact with something strong enough to suppress them this devil fruit also does have one weakness which is that its attacks do not discriminate meaning that whether you are friend or foe you are not safe from these vibrations now that Blackbeard is the owner of this devil fruit he can use all the abilities white beard one's head so we will go over those now but before that I just want to add that at first Blackbeard had not yet mastered the devil fruit when he first got it of course but now with a two-year time skip he has without a doubt managed to at least perfect most of these techniques anyway the first one is called tycion which is where the user cracks the air with a punch that sends devastating shock waves through the air in the direction it is facing these shock waves can pass through and damage almost any substance completely tearing it apart and if these shock waves are directed into the ground the attack will result in a devastating earthquake capable of generating huge tsunamis or worse if the user is not near water this attack also doubles as an excellent defense because it will destroy or disrupt any attacks that are coming towards the user Gehrke shin which is basically a close-range version of the previous attack that sends these vibrations into one point-blank attack that transfers the destructive vibrations to who ever or whatever the user strikes leading to massive damage Kobudo wari which is where white beard creates a small spherical area of energy with his hand to create a concentrated explosive and powerful blow to whatever is inside that spherical area and finally Shima Arashi which is where the user grabs and pulls the air around him and shifts it into many different directions which led to marine Ford tilting on its side and causing massive amount of destruction in the process so not only does Blackbeard have the yami yami no me but he also has this powerhouse of an ability too so needless to say his most a notable feature is his devil fruit abilities and it should also be noted that with these abilities he was able to defeat the white beard pirates at some point during the time skip so these abilities are not something you want to challenge and finally onto his connections really the only notable connections we know of right now is Blackbeard's crew which is full of some very scary and powerful individuals but Blackbeard really doesn't have any big organizations on his side that we know of at least giving him a bit of a downfall compared to some of the others who have very powerful connections however Blackbeard also has Kuzon as some sort of Ally and considering cusan was previously an admiral not only is he strong enough to make it on this list himself but he also has knowledge from his time in the Marines that Blackbeard could definitely use to his advantage should he need to so Blackbeard does have one useful Ally if nothing else but that pretty much does it for Blackbeard so let's move on to the next Yong Co we know about which is Charlotte Lin Lin better known as big mum let me just begin by saying we know a decent amount about big mom but nowhere near as much as we know about Blackbeard so there will be some missing information but to begin with her physical abilities considering that big mom is a young ko it is no surprise that she is quite physically strong for instance she is able to throw punches that pack some real destructive power she can climb tall buildings easily and throw her servants a great distance with only one arm another notable instance of her strength would be that she was able to break through a metal door just by walking through it which doesn't really sound him recive but smoothie who is one of big mom's sweet commanders and probably one of the strongest on her crew was unable to previously break through that same metal door unfortunately other than her strength we don't know much else about big mom's physical abilities so next to let's talk about her intelligence and really not much is known about just how smart she is because we've seen two different sides two big mom we've seen the side where she seems rather intelligent more or less acting like a businesswoman in the way she sets up marriages and alliances with other crews and organizations ultimately just trying to get what she wants and strengthen her own crew and then we have her other side which is quite terrifying this side occurs when big mom gets fixated on a particular type of food or sweet and will completely rampage until she gets the food she craves going as far to destroy and kill entire countries her own castle her own subordinates and even her own children so it's honestly hard for me to gauge just how smart she really is at this point in time especially with such a dangerous eating disorder so for now we'll just say she's moderately intelligent next up is hockey which we have no clue if big mom can use any form of hockey at this point in time although considering she is a young ko I would imagine she possesses at least one of the three and is very proficient when using it but again we can't know for sure until we see it next up is her devil fruit which is thesaurus or uno me otherwise known as the soul soul fruit this devil fruit is a paramecia type and allows the user to freely interact with and manipulate human souls this soul manipulation consists of drawing out and manifesting fragments of a human soul into a somewhat ghostly light colored substance which the user extracts by grabbing the substance that appears to surround the body and pulling it out this extraction of the person's soul is effectively the same thing as taking away a fraction of their lifespan and the amount of life taken is decided by the user the maximum amount we have seen so far has been 50 years from Pedro although big mom was going to take away 60 years from Pedro instead so it is likely she can take away even more than that and a big mom can even take so little as just a second of life if desired because of this ability it is possible for big mom to kill her victim instantly by taking more life away than the person in question has left so far from what we've seen this extraction process does not appear to hurt the victim but this is also only for small amounts of the victims life and a greater amount could inflict quite a bit of pain but we don't know for sure another thing that should be mentioned is that the emotions of the victim affect how easy it is for big mom to extract their soul we don't know a lot about this stipulation but we do know that when a victim is showing fear it makes it much easier for big mom to extract their soul well now you might be asking well what does big mom do with the soul fragments she extracts does she eat them or something well no what she does instead is sprinkled these fragments all over the islands of Toto land where they settle into random objects or animals to turn them into homies so basically these soul fragments can give life to inanimate objects and give animals a more human appearance and behavior kind of like chopper in a sense but not quite to the same extent these homies can fight if needed but they do have two weaknesses the first is fear because if a homie experiences extreme amounts of fear they will instantly die and their other weakness is of a very card of big mom because they can sense her powerful soul emanating from it and therefore will not attack whoever has it big mom herself can also create these things called incarnations which are these large black ghostly looking creatures created from big mom's own soul and the incarnations themselves are able to extract Souls these incarnations are also capable of human speech and able to understand basic orders big mom herself also has the ability to create or summon two particular homies at will named Zeus and Prometheus which are a thundercloud and a miniature son they will appear whenever she summons them and with them she can manipulate the weather to create destructive storms as a manifestation of her rage which is noted to be unstoppable and that is currently everything we know about her devil fruit which is a very scary ability if you ask me I'm sure there will end up being a lot more this fruit can do but for now this is what we're left with and finally let's talk about big mom's connections which first let's talk about her children as far as we know big mom has 84 children in total and really her only reason for having so many children is to strengthen her crew and to marry them to whomever she chooses to create new alliances and overall make her crew even stronger some of her children such as cracker just happened to also double as one of the most powerful characters in one piece so far and she has at least two more children who are on that exact same level additionally many of her children are generally strong fighters or have some sort of ability meaning that just her family alone is a force to be feared but aside from her family we also have her subordinates or other crew members one of big mom's goals is to create a nation where all the races live in harmony so as you can guess she also obtains some interesting crew members from other races for instance tamago and Peckham's are both members of her crew who are from different races Peckham's being a mink and tamago being a member of the long leg tribe in addition to that since big mom marries her children to form a family connection with other crews and organizations she ends up making a lot of new and powerful connections along the way one instance of this would be her alliance with the son pirates or fish man pirates by marrying her daughter praline to Aladeen to form that family connection and to protect Fishman Island since the fall of the former Janka white beard this alliance also allied her with Jin BAE meaning that he is also currently a member of her crew another good example would be her alliance with capone Beji who formed the family connection by marrying chiffon so now Capone works under big mom it should also be noted that if someone ever wants to sever ties with big mom they need to give up something important to them in return such as a limb and big mom uses a roulette to decide what the severity of the important thing may be so as you can imagine by how many children big mom it is without a doubt that she has some very powerful allies we have yet to see meaning that she could potentially have the most powerful crew in the world another thing that should be mentioned is her relationship with the countries or civilizations she protects big mom only protects them as long as they can pay some sort of cost to her usually in candy or some other sweet and if they fail to pay she will not only revoke her protection but also destroy the area in question so through this big mom could also be getting a lot of useful goods in addition to her sweet candy now that about does it for the allies we know about but I think what makes big mom so powerful is definitely her connections because big mom just has potentially so many and from those that we've seen already we can tell that her allies are some very powerful people and you should definitely think twice before starting anything with this young Co but that about does it for what we know about big mom and unfortunately the other two young Co we know very little about in terms of their abilities but I will make sure to relay whatever information we do know so next up we are going to be looking at the strongest creature in the world Kaido of the beasts let us begin with his physical abilities Kaito has been caught and tortured 18 times the Marines and other Yanko have attempted to execute him 40 times but each time he survived because of the execution weapons broke when used on him he has jumped from over 10,000 meters in the sky onto the ground in an attempt to kill himself creating such a massive shockwave that it sunk ships nearby and from that fall all he got was a little headache Kaito is most notable physical ability if it is physical is his inability to die as you can see there have been numerous attempts to kill him each one resulting in failure and Kaito has also attempted to kill himself multiple times each time also resulting in failure so it's pretty much impossible to kill him apparently Kaito also has massive physical strength from what we've seen as he was able to easily hit a normal sized person with his weapon and send them flying far off into the distance and it has also been said that he has sunk nine gigantic prison ships single-handedly but other than all that we know nothing else regarding his physical abilities but just from what we've heard I think it's safe to say he will probably end up easily being one of the physically strongest if not the physically strongest next up is his intelligence which we really know nothing about so there's not much to comment on but I personally feel like Kaito is going to end up being the least intelligent of the four yonko and if he isn't I would be very surprised next up is his ability to use haki which you guessed it we have no idea if Kaito can use haki however since he is a Yong Co he likely can but we'll have to see if he can and to what extent next up is his devil fruit or lack of because we have no idea if Kaito has a devil fruit or not at this point in time so once again we'll need to wait and see and finally let's move on to his notable connections which we do know something about first up is his crew which is made up of a lot of powerful individuals first are what he calls pleasures which are basically your normal throw away pirates with nothing special about them then we have the gift errs which are members of his crew that have eaten the artificial devil fruits called smiles making them beast men it should also be noted that kaido's dream is to create the strongest crew the world has ever seen by composing it of nothing but devil fruit users so these gift errs are superior in strength to the pleasures and then after that we have the three disasters which are kaitos strongest members and his right-hand men the only one we know about currently is Jack who is strong enough on his own to make it on this list so I can only imagine what the other two are like in addition to his crew Kaito also has his allies and subordinates the first we'll mention is doflamingo and caesar clown they were in charge of getting Kaito his smiles and although doflamingo and caesar were defeated and the smile production was stopped Kaito still considers at the very least doflamingo and ally as he sent Jack to rescue him and like we talked about earlier doflamingo is also on this list meaning that so far Kaito has two of the strongest allies in one piece even though he considers doflamingo rather weak next up is x-drake and his crew who are currently allied with Kaito and work under him then we have scratch man apoo who is allied with Kaito as of now from what we saw and finally we have the Shogun of wha no country who we do not know much about but we can assume they are a very powerful or at least very influential ally to have so although Kaito does not have a huge amount of connections like big mom does he still has some of the most powerful allies in one piece making him an even greater force to be reckoned with but that is pretty much all we know about Kaito currently in regards to his power so let's move on to the last Yanko which is none other than red haired shanks now unfortunately shanks is currently the most mysterious member of the yonk oh so he is the one we currently know the least about at least in terms of his own abilities so when it comes to his physical abilities all we know is that he is a swordsman he was able to block a magma punch from sac uzuki and he used to have legendary duels with me hawk back in the day when he had two arms other than that we know nothing else about his physical capabilities but considering he is a young KO and each of the other yong KO are very strong and well-rounded physically we can assume the same for shanks moving on to his intelligence we don't know much about that either and all we really know is that he is very good when it comes to his skills with diplomacy as he was able to convince Sengoku to agree to his proposition also Kaito was on his way to kill white beard before they made it to marine Ford but we learned that shanks managed to intercept Kaito and stop him from coming so either a the red hair pirates defeated Kaito easily because they showed no signs of being injured from any previous battle when they arrived or B shanks managed to persuade Kaito not to attack what ended up actually happening is still a mystery so from his ability to deal with things like this I assume that shanks is definitely rather intelligent maybe not as intelligent as someone like doflamingo or me hawk but I would place his intelligence above black beard if I had to guess how smart shanks really was but we'll just have to wait find out next up is shanks ability to use haki which from what we've seen so far shanks can use both conquerors haki and armament haki his conquerors haki is also extremely powerful as it was able to easily knock out tons of white beards crew members additionally in an SBS oda has stated that shanks is haki is so powerful that he could have knocked out all 100,000 of the men and fishman back during the Fishman Island dark so from that we can see that his hockey is still much stronger than Luffy's he also used armament haki to stops a Kazuki's attack with his sword so from this we can assume that his hockey must be something else because other haki attacks didn't even faze sac uzuki in the slightest so from what we know right now I would be willing to bet that shanks currently has the strongest haki in the series but again we cannot know for sure finally on to his devil fruit or lack of we know almost for certain that shanks did not have a devil fruit at the beginning of the series because he was able to swim however it is certainly possible that shanks did eat one at some point after that a lot of people have some pretty interesting theories about it but we really can't know for sure if he actually has eaten one or not so again I guess we'll just have to wait and find out now finally on to his connections we don't know much about his connections other than the connection he has with his own crew we know that he is also friends with Luffy but the two will likely not meet each other again for quite some time shanks used to be rivals with me Hawk but since he lost his arm it seems as though the two are just mere acquaintances but on good terms and finally the last Connection we are aware of that is notable would be his connection with Marko the two were once enemies but now seem to be allies after Marko gave an apology and his gratitude to shanks although what their relationship is as of now is unknown it should also be noted that shanks was once a member of Goldie Rogers crew and I would say this is a very significant connection but other than buggy and Silver's railay we really don't know anybody else who is in Rogers crew and we also don't know what shanks his relationship is with them now so compared to some of the other yonk oh it seems as though shanks is connections follow this short but at the same time I'm sure there's a lot more notable allies that we just don't know about it and if not there must be some reason shanks doesn't have very many either way I'm sure we will find out later on but that does it for shanks so out of the four yank Oh which one do I think will end up being the strongest so honestly at this moment in time it's very hard to judge which Janka will be the strongest due to the lack of information but as of right now it seems as though each yong-chol has a certain quality that is vastly superior to the rest physically I feel like Kaito will end up being the strongest because of his history and just his overall size and appearance we know that Kaito has had quite the history with people attempting to kill him and even Kaito attempting to kill himself all which have failed so either this has something to do with his devil fruit if he has one or he is just that physically invincible which seems to be more likely so when it comes to physical abilities I believe Kaito is the strongest in terms of intelligence I feel like each of the yahko are at the very least moderately intelligent except for maybe Kaito but honestly right now the smartest yakko appears to be black beard or shanks I feel like big mom is close to their level of intelligence but she's just not quite that smart of course we don't know a lot about shanks is intelligence but it's also hard for me to imagine him not being intelligent so I may just be biased in that case but if we take shanks out of the question it looks as though Blackbeard is currently the smartest Yakko which is absolutely crazy to me because Blackbeard doesn't really seem that smart until you learn about his master plans and how he orchestrates them so as of right now I would say that shanks and Blackbeard are both even in terms of intelligence next up is haki which as of right now shanks is on top mainly because we don't know what the other yonkos are capable of in terms of hockey but as of right now we know that shanks can use two of the three types and one of those two is conquerors haki in addition to that oda has basically confirmed in his SBS that shanks is haki is strong enough to take out 100,000 people at once meaning that his hockey is the strongest in the series so far there is a good chance that the other three Janka could have stronger hockey or at least armament haki but for now shanks has the strongest haki moving on to devil fruits it's impossible not to pick Blackbeard purely because he has access to to devil fruits unlike every other character but in addition to that they are two of the strongest devil fruits in the series making Blackbeard an unstoppable force just in that instance on top of that it is likely Blackbeard will find a way to gain even more devil fruit abilities since he is looking for them so I think we can expect to see Blackbeard get much stronger later on in the series but for now his devil fruits make him superior to the rest and finally on to connections I have to give this one two big mom for her massive crew and a massive set of allies compared to the other Yonko in terms of connections kaito is the only one that compares at all but even his crew looks tiny when you compared to big moms kaito may potentially have the stronger crew but if big mom has a crew and set of allies close in strength but with greater numbers even Kaito will be toast so because of her massive set of connections big mom takes the cake and eats it too so now on to who I believe is the strongest before I begin I want to say that this is a very very tough choice for me to make because each of them have some sort of superior quality so what brings me to this conclusion is the fact that both shanks and Blackbeard have two qualities each while the others only have one so for now I'm going to say Kaito and a big mom are the weaker of the two overall which is really hard for me to say because I feel that both of them are such powerful characters but now we have black beard and shanks now personally as the series stands right now I believe black beard is the stronger character or at least has the potential to be the stronger character if he can continue to consume devil fruit after devil fruit gaining a whole arsenal of powerful abilities but even if black beard becomes the strongest character I feel like he will never be on the same level as shanks because I feel shanks is going to be the character at the end of the series that Luffy needs to surpass and to surpass shanks Luffy will need to become the strongest character so I feel like shanks also has that plot armor we all know and love but I could also be completely and shanks could die in the next arc so if I honestly had to choose the strongest character in one piece it would be shanks and I honestly hate to say that because we know so little about him but that is just a prediction not the actual strongest character according to this list like I said earlier until we know everything about each Yakko I am ranking them all as equals so as of right now the strongest character in one piece is a four-way tie between Kaito big mom Blackbeard and shanks but if I had to put my money on one character coming out on top it's going to be shanks but there you have it everybody the top 10 strongest characters in one piece or the top 13 if you want to be specific hopefully you guys enjoyed
