9 characters that can easily defeat admirals in one piece

As for the strongest of One piece world, that much is clear naval admirals they are up there with the best. Navy Admirals are known as the absolute powerhouse of the world government and possess immense power in terms of both great Haki and Devil Fruit.

over the years fans have seen many overpowered sea admirals in the world One piecebut while they are strong, none of them are at the top of the verse. There are plenty of powerful One Piece characters that can easily defeat Marine Admirals. Oda already showed that they like certain characters in Elbaf's One Piece flashback Rocks D. Xebec, can easily kill admirals navy and not even break a sweat.

Kaido

The strongest creature in the world

When it comes to immense power, Kaido is easily one of the characters Oda has shown the most One piece. His immense feats of strength were made abundantly clear in the Wano Country arc. Kaido has the power of Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryuand on top of that, he has advanced Haki of all three types, making him an absolute powerhouse. Kaido wielded a force large enough to easily destroy entire islands. A navy admiral alone wouldn't even be able to seriously harm Kaid. With the advanced Conqueror's Haki and the raw power offered by his fruit, Kaido would make quick work of the naval admirals.

Monkey D. Luffy

The newest Yonko from the sea

Luffy has yet to become a Yonk, but fans know it's easy one of the strongest characters in the story. Luffy has already fought and defeated the admiral in Eggheadand while it wasn't easy, it should be remembered that Luffy didn't go all out and use his Conqueror's Haki right from the start. At the same time, Luffy's strongest abilities such as the Bajrang Gunwere not used in battle. After Elbaf, Luffy should be able to take down the likes of Admirals with ease.

Silver Rayleigh

The Dark King

In Roger Pirates, Oda specifically highlighted three characters to be on a different level compared to the rest, and Silvers Rayleigh is one of them. Rayleigh is comparable to his captain and is an absolute monster of Haki. He wields advanced High King Haki as well as extremely advanced Haki armor. Rayleigh is extremely powerful and even in his old age, without going all out, he was able to stop and even injure Kizaru. In his prime, he would easily defeat admirals.

Scopper Gaban

Mountain eater

Like Rayleigh, Scopper Gaban was also comparable to Gol D. Roger in power. Known as Rayleigh's equal and potentially the second strongest in Roger Pirates, Gaban is easily one of the most impressive characters in terms of strength. With his incredibly advanced Observation and Conqueror's HakiGaban could easily take down the Holy Knight and could even defeat Gunk. Undoubtedly, he would easily be able to kill the navy admiral.

King Harald

The strongest king of Elbaf

Harold he may be underrated by fans but the truth is he is an absolute monster strong enough to fight Rocks D. Xebec on par, and Oda has emphasized this on many occasions. His power was absolutely immense, and since Xebec could kill admirals, so could Harald.

Whitebeard

The strongest man in the world

Whitebeard is one of the strongest in the world One pieceand a lot of that is thanks to his incredible devil fruit, Gura Gura no Mi. This fruit allows him to send vibrations through the ground, air or sea, resulting in earthquakes and tsunamis. It can destroy islands in an instant and even destroy the world. It would be very easy for him to defeat the admiral.

Rocks D. Xebec

Successor to Davy Jones

As for the strongest of One piece world, Rocks D. Xebec definitely gets a mention. What fans know about him is that he's incredibly overpowered and canonically killed a navy admiral without breaking a sweat in Marijoa. He then proceeded to clash with Harald and didn't even look hurt when he did. Defeating the admiral was a piece of cake for him.

Go D. Roger

The Pirate King

Gol D. Roger was Rocks biggest rival in the old era and had enough power to compete with him. Roger was an absolute monster in power and with Garp defeated Domi Reversi'd Rocks. In the following years, it became even stronger. In his prime, Roger was as strong as Rocks, if not stronger, and would easily kill a Navy Admiral.

Shanks

Child of destiny

In the new generation, Shanks is one pirate who is clearly shown to be better than the others. Shanks was Roger's own apprentice and even Roger and his crew believed he was the next king after the captain. Shanks has tremendous Haki, comparable even to Joy Boy. His abilities are astounding and killing a navy admiral would not be difficult for him at all.
