One Piece: Every Yonko's Strongest Attack, Ranked

Yonko are the strongest pirates in the One Piece world and here are their strongest attacks.

Monkey D. Luffy

Luffy Pirates crushed the Yonko one piece

Luffy he is himself one of the four sea emperors, but before he went on to achieve that title, he was crushed by the sea emperor himself. Luffy faced off against Kaido in the Wano Country Arc story, and while rising to his level, he first faced a crushing defeat at the hands of a Yonko. Luffy's overconfidence after defeating Katakuri saw to it that he gained control over reality when he faced Kaido in battle.

Despite unleashing everything on the Emperor, Luffy was barely able to make a dent in his defenses. Furthermore, a single swing of Kaido's Conqueror's Haki-coated club was enough to completely defeat the Straw Hat captain, resulting in him being simply crushed.

Eustace Kid

  • Crushed: Shanks, Kaido

Eustace Kid he has been crushed by Yonke on many occasions, but his greatest skill is his tenacity. At some point during the timeskip, he confronted the Red Hair Pirates and was sent packing by Ben Beckman, who also took him by the arm. Later in the line, he was ambushed by Yonko Kaido and completely crushed.

Afterwards, Kid faced off against Yonko Big Mom to defeat her with the help of Trafalgar Law. However, his bad luck saw him trade blows with Shanks again. This time, the Red Emperor had no mercy on him. With a single swing of his blade, Shanks was able to take both Kid and Killer apart. The Giant Warrior Pirates completely demolished their crew and sent them to the bottom of the ocean. His current fate remains unknown.

Trafalgar Law

Like Kid, Law he also faced utter destruction at the hands of a Yonko, and in his case it was none other than Blackbeard. While Law was able to pave the way to the defeat of Big Mom and the rise of a new era, he was soon ambushed by Yonko Blackbeard on his way out of Wan. In this battle, Law used the powers of his fruit against him, but to no avail.

In the end, Blackbeard managed to completely overpower Law and demolish his entire crew. The Heart Pirates sank to the bottom of the ocean along with the Polar Tang, but Bepo and Law managed to survive this battle. However, they are alive and their whereabouts are largely unknown at this time.

Roronoa Zoro

zoro Pirates crushed Yonko one piece

Dawn he has challenged several powerful swordsmen over the years, but he is also never too afraid to try his luck against the most powerful creatures that exist in the world. When Zoro came to Onigashima, he openly challenged Yonko Kaido, saying that he wanted to cut him. He confronted Kaid on the roof and was completely decimated in the battle as expected.

Zoro was certainly able to do some damage to Kaido, especially with his subconscious use of Conqueror's Haki, but immediately afterwards he faced the wrath of the Emperor, who completely knocked him out with a single swing of his club. Despite being a ferocious pirate, Zoro was absolutely crushed by the Yonks and would likely face other Yonks later on who could defeat him one more time.

Basil Hawkins

Basil Hawkins Pirates crushed the Yonko one piece

Basil Hawkins he is the captain of the Hawkins Pirates and a member of the Worst Generation, which was quite prominent in the New World until recently. After being ambushed by Kaido, Hawkins gave up entirely and joined forces instead. Hawkins never really faced physical harm at the hands of a Yonko, but his spirit was completely crushed to the point where he couldn't even call himself a pirate.

Hawkins' dreams were completely destroyed by Kaido, as was his willpower. In fact, he too was ashamed of himself for joining forces with Kaid instead of standing up to him properly like Kid and Killer. This guilt stayed with him until the very end of the Wano arc, where he admitted it to none other than X-Dragon. The entire character of Basil Hawkins shows that defeat does not have to be physical. Sometimes even spiritual defeats can be overwhelming.

Mr. Crocodile

Crocodile he is currently a member of the Cross Guild and its most important commander alongside Mihawk. Before that, however, he was the leader of baroque works, trying to bring utopia to the land of Arabasta. Even before that, Crocodile was an active pirate in the New World and at one point faced off against Yonko Whitebeard.

The exact specifics of their battle remain unknown to this day, but it is said that Whitebeard completely crushed him and therefore held a grudge against him until the very end. Hopefully, more will be revealed about his connection to Whitebeard in the future, but what fans can say with absolute certainty is that Whitebeard spared him nothing and absolutely destroyed him in battle.

Kozuki Oden

Kozuki Oden he traveled with some of the strongest men in the One Piece world, such as Roger and Whitebeard. Returning to his homeland of Wano, Oden fought Kaido shortly after. He proved to be a more than even match for the Yonko in this battle. Oden did incredibly well against Kaid and even gave him the biggest scar of his life. It can even be argued that Oden would win this battle.

However, with dirty tactics, the Beast Pirates distracted him long enough for Kaido to deliver the final blow that led to his defeat. Technically, Oden shouldn't have been defeated in this battle the way he was, but at the end of the day he was still crushed by the power of the Yonka. Pirates never really fight fair and anything goes when they take up arms against each other.

Gecko Moria

Gecko Moria is a former Shichibukai who is currently still active in the New World, but before that he led the Thriller Bark pirates in the Florian Triangle. Long before that, Moria was an active pirate in the New World whose goal was to find One piece. Because of his loyalty to Wano, who raised him and even gave him the name Kozuki, Moria took his Gekko Pirates and attacked Kaido to free the country from his rule.

Unfortunately for him, he was completely crushed and his entire pirate crew was destroyed. The vast majority of the people of Wan believed him to be dead, but Moria is still alive and will play a significant role in the final saga.
