5 Most Powerful One Piece Characters in Elbaph

by

Please be aware that this article contains spoilers from the One Piece manga. Eiichiro Oda’s popular manga, One Piece, began its final story arc in 2022, and the adventure is still unfolding. Currently, the Straw Hat Pirates are in Elbaph, the legendary land of the Giants, where the Holy Knights and Imu have arrived with plans to conquer it. Following Vegapunk’s recent broadcast, tensions are high, and Imu is determined to increase their power. Imu has long desired to control the Giants, and now sees this as the ideal opportunity to make them subservient.

When Imu learned his knights were losing the battle, he personally intervened on the island. Things quickly deteriorated, but the conflict is still raging. Currently, these five characters are undoubtedly the most powerful fighters we’ve seen in this story arc.

5) Scopper Gaban

I was so hyped to finally see Gaban really introduced during the Elbaph Arc! We’d gotten glimpses of him in flashbacks, but meeting the Straw Hats was awesome. And wow, even as old as he is, his strength is incredible! He took down one of the Holy Knights like it was nothing. Honestly, if they hadn’t threatened his son, he could have wiped out all the enemies himself! It was a real shame to see him forced to surrender and get seriously hurt, though.

4) Monkey D. Luffy

It’s surprising that, even in the final part of the story, the main character hasn’t fully realized his power. However, Luffy remains incredibly strong, thanks to his Haki and unique Devil Fruit abilities. He’s gotten even more powerful since awakening his Devil Fruit, constantly improving with each fight. His biggest challenge now is pushing past his limits and overcoming exhaustion when facing tough opponents.

3) Shamrock

Shamrock, the son of Garling and commander of the Holy Knights, is a skilled swordsman with a unique ability. His sword is imbued with the power of a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, letting it transform into a massive, three-headed Cerberus. Although the full scope of Shamrock’s powers is still a mystery, even a brief glimpse of his sword in Chapter 1138 proves he’s a powerful and dangerous opponent, surpassing the other Holy Knights in strength.

2) Loki

The anime and manga One Piece has just begun to showcase Loki’s incredible strength, quickly establishing him as a major power within the series. He’s the first Giant in hundreds of years considered worthy by Ragnir, the protector of a powerful Devil Fruit. Fourteen years ago, Loki ate a legendary Zoan-type Devil Fruit, giving him the ability to transform into a colossal dragon. This dragon is so large it can cover the entire sky, a detail found in ancient texts written by Harley, detailing stories from the past.

1) Imu

Imu is the series’ main villain, and we’ve seen incredible power from him, especially during the Elbaph Arc. He can already control people like puppets, but his full strength became clear when he arrived on Elbaph himself. It’s currently unclear if anyone could defeat him in a direct fight.
