This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Elbaf Arc.
Summary
- Shanks is a master of Conqueror’s Haki, the strongest in One Piece.
- Luffy is the only one who can surpass Shanks’s powerful Haki.
- Oda has hinted that Luffy’s Haki will reach Joy Boy’s level, making him the strongest character.
Observing closely, I can’t help but feel the palpable intensity of One Piece’s Final Saga. Right now, we’re witnessing the unfolding of the Elbaf arc, and let me tell you, it’s a whole new league compared to Egghead. Oda has truly raised the bar with this final chapter, leaving fans on the edge of their seats. As for formidable characters, none in the current world can compare to Shanks, the fearless captain of the Red Hair Pirates.
Everyone recognizes that his greatest asset lies in his formidable use of Haki. Already, the author has hinted at Shanks’ potential with his Haki, and it’s clear that currently, he possesses the strongest Haki among all characters. However, the author has also introduced a character who will eventually surpass Shanks in terms of powerful Haki as the story unfolds.
Shanks Has The Strongest Haki In One Piece
- Shanks Is A Master Of Conqueror’s Haki
- Shanks Only Relies On Haki
Among characters in the One Piece universe, the Four Emperors are particularly skilled in Haki. Although figures like Garp, Scopper Gaban, Rayleigh, and many others also excel in it, they have aged significantly, which has led to a decline in their power as acknowledged by themselves. Consequently, individuals such as Shanks, who is at the peak of his abilities, likely possess even greater Haki prowess. Shanks is indeed formidable, and the absence of a Devil Fruit in his arsenal underscores his incredible strength within the world. What sets Shanks apart in combat is primarily his mastery over potent Haki, making him truly exceptional.
You mention that when you board my vessel and wield your potent Haki? (Whitebeard to Shanks)
When you get on my boat and use your strong Haki, you say so. (Whitebeard to Shanks)
When Shanks encountered Whitebeard, he admired his Haki. In fact, Oda often emphasizes Shanks’s Haki as well, and his actions in the One Piece world are unparalleled by many characters. From effortlessly defeating 3 billion berry pirates to preventing adversaries from foreseeing the future, Shanks possesses abilities that make him virtually invincible at this moment.
Why Luffy Is The Only One Who Can Surpass Shanks’s Haki
Luffy’s Haki Will Reach Joy Boy’s Level
In the world of One Piece, the most formidable Haki demonstrated yet belongs to Joy Boy, a fact revealed during the Egghead Arc. To date, only Shanks has been directly likened to Joy Boy’s mastery of Haki, demonstrating his immense power. However, fans are confident that Luffy will surpass even Shanks for two reasons: firstly, because Luffy’s ultimate goal is to match Joy Boy’s abilities; and secondly, in order to inherit Joy Boy’s spirit and achieve feats even he could not, Luffy must push himself beyond his current limits. In essence, this means that Luffy will undoubtedly go beyond Shanks.
Joy boy, I’m sorry I couldn’t make you King. — Emeth
Currently, Luffy possesses all the necessary skills to outshine Shanks; what he lacks is the capacity to harm souls, thus overcoming immortality. Once he masters this skill and grows stronger, his Haki level will automatically increase. The moment when Luffy surpasses Shanks is a significant plot development in One Piece, and fans are aware that Roger anticipated someone would surpass him someday.
Will Luffy Be The Strongest In One Piece?
By the close of “One Piece,” Luffy is undeniably destined to stand out as the world’s strongest. Although he doesn’t value titles, Luffy will undoubtedly be seen as exceptional among his peers. In truth, he will likely exceed even Roger’s renown, demonstrating that he will outshine Shanks in every aspect. Considering his character, surpassing Shanks’s mastery of Haki is simply a matter of course.
