The current level of the Monster Trio

The Monster Trio has already defeated powerful enemies

Luffy is on a whole other level
It goes without saying that the Monster Trio is incredibly powerful One piece. They have shown tremendous growth over the years and are the characters that have received the most fights within the Straw Hat Pirates. Luffy, who is the protagonist of the series, has always been involved in one fight or the other and always uses them to improve himself. Luffy dramatically improved his use of the Devil Fruit and even mastered all three types of Haki as well as their advanced levels. Most recently, Luffy even awakened his devil fruit and all of these powers together are great enough to see Luffy become a Yonk from the sea and take on and defeat powerful individuals like Kaido.

As for Zoro, fans know he's learned a lot over the years. Zoro is incredibly strong and his swordsmanship is mesmerizing to say the least. Zoro has his powerful three sword style and has mastered all three types of Haki with advanced control of Conqueror's Haki. Undoubtedly, with all these abilities, Zoro is almost unstoppable in battle.
Meanwhile, Sanji, the Straw Hat Pirates' cook, has also improved significantly over the years. While Sanji once struggled to take on and defeat powerful foes like Doflamingo, right now he can make quick work of them all thanks to the power he gained in the Wano Country Arc. Sanji is driven by his emotions and has tremendous abilities, such as his own phenomenal strength in melee combat, as well as scientific abilities. Overall, Sanji is a phenomenally strong individual and completes the Monster Trio with his incredible strength and sharp intellect.
Challenges for Monster Trio Face to Face
The Monster Trio can keep getting stronger in the Final Saga
Currently, the Monster Trio is a very strong group. Luffy is already Yonka level while Zoro is stronger than the vast majority of Yonka First Mates. Sanji is also there and fans know that the three together make an unstoppable force. This means that none of them have reached their peak as fighters, which means that they will do great things in the future by taking part in massive battles.
In the Elbaf Arc of One Piece, fans will most likely see the Monster Trio engage in massive battles. In fact, Oda has already teased the Monster Trio, which has a very important role in this part of the story, and when he gets the chance to properly illustrate it, he takes it with both hands. Here, Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji perfectly power up in different ways. While Luffy will want to improve the effectiveness of Gear 5, Zoro will improve the style king's time limit. Meanwhile, Sanji still has his scientific abilities to research as well as improve his Haki.
Once we win this war, we'll finally get to see it… a glimpse of Luffy as the Pirate King!
It can be said that the Monster Trio will definitely encounter big threats in the finale that they will have to defeat. Characters like Loki could become massive thorns for Luffy, while individuals like Shanks will also be quite problematic opponents. Zoro and Sanji can defeat their enemies such as members of the Red Hair Pirates among others.

Shanks' secret is eventually revealed to Odo. Shanks' family will be a major plot point in One Piece.
Fans know them to be so powerful that they won't back down from any challenge, and since it takes courage for Luffy to become the Pirate King, he always steps up. Whenever Luffy is in danger, these powerful individuals will protect him.
How strong will the end of the Monster Trio series be?
By the end of the series, the Monster Trio will be at Yonko level
It's pretty clear to fans that the Monster Trio will get incredibly involved in the Final Saga wars and that they'll get the chance to take part in massive battles. Luffy has to fight against other Yonka such as the leader of the Blackbeard Pirates, Teach and many other powerful individuals. Meanwhile, Zoro must take down Mihawk, who fans know is on par with the Emperors themselves. Sanji may not have a clear opponent in front of him, but he's always up there with Luffy and Zoro, and he's even fought admirals in the Final Saga. From now on, the challenges for Sanji and the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates will only get more difficult, which only proves that their overall strength will improve significantly.
Looking at Roger Pirates, fans know that Rayleigh himself was an Emperor-level pirate, and Roger ranked first, and rightfully so. Fans will likely see a similar case play out with the Straw Hat Pirates. Luffy surpasses all the emperors and potentially even Roger and Whitebeard. He will reach similar levels to Joyboy and maybe even surpass him. Meanwhile, Zoro and Sanji reach a high level, surpassing all the vice-captains of the One Piece world and becoming the same level as the Yonko themselves. The straw pirates still have to overcome every other crew, and it's natural that their overall strength is far greater than anyone else who would dare to challenge them.
The crew is still in Elbaf for now and it will be some time before they leave that island. But when they do, they will be stronger than ever before and perhaps even ready to take over world rule in the final battle.
One Piece is available to read through Viz Media. Fans can officially read the series for free on the Shonen Jump and Manga Plus apps. The release date for the next One Piece chapter, One Piece 1134, is set for December 22, 2024.
