This article contains spoilers for the One Piece manga.

Summary

  • Luffy remains the strongest in the crew, with Zoro, Sanji, and Jinbe as the top officers.
  • Nico Robin is now recognized as the 4th strongest Yonko Officer in the Straw Hat crew.
  • Other members like Franky, Nami, Brook need to get stronger with Haki in the New World.

In the realm of “One Piece”, the crew led by Captain Luffy, known as the Straw Hat Pirates, have swiftly ascended to be among the most formidable pirate groups. Each member of this crew bears the title of Yonko Officer, a position not held equally in strength. Recently, Eiichiro Oda has unveiled the most powerful Yonko Officers within “One Piece”.

The Three Undisputed Strongest Yonko Officers in the Straw Hat Pirates

Zoro, Sanji, and Jinbe Are At The Very Top

Amongst One Piece enthusiasts, there’s often consensus regarding the strongest members of the Straw Hat Pirates. Without a doubt, their fearless leader, Luffy, stands tall as the most powerful among them. He has transcended traditional power levels, outperforming his comrades significantly.

Regarding officers, it’s widely acknowledged that Zoro, Sanji, and Jinbe are undeniably the top three in strength, and it appears this hierarchy will persist for some time. Uniquely among commanders, these three possess both Armament and Observation Haki, with Zoro even demonstrating Conqueror’s Haki at present.

Among the Others, Robin Showcases Her Strength

Robin is the 4th Strongest Yonko Officer

Currently, the first three highest-ranking officers appear to be firmly established. However, it seems that the fourth strongest officer has been hinted at or confirmed by Oda in the manga more recently.

In the latest installment of “One Piece,” chapter 1148, it appears that Nico Robin, a member of the Straw Hat Pirates, ranks among the strongest after Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, and Jinbe. In this chapter, we witness Robin boldly engaging one of the current major threats in the “One Piece” world – the Holy Knights. Her opponent was none other than Saint Sommers. In a strategic move, she deceived him using a clone, and even managed to shatter his spine. Regrettably, she didn’t emerge victorious because of the Holy Knight’s remarkable regenerative abilities. Instead, it was Scopper Gaban who rescued her from danger.

In the past, irreplaceable relics lay in ruins – treasures beyond valuation, their worth stretching far beyond quantifiable measures. History often echoes, yet we are confined to moving forward, not backward. I fear such a concept might elude your comprehension.

Yet, these circumstances underscore her incredible strength and promise. If she were to acquire Haki and a Devil Fruit awakening, she might surpass Jinbe by the story’s end. Readers are fervently wishing that Oda doesn’t let her potential go unrealized and grants her access to Haki sooner.

I won’t let them! — Robin and Gaban in One Piece 1147

Following Robin, it’s likely that Franky is the second strongest Straw Hat pirate, followed closely by Nami, then Brook, Chopper, and finally Usopp. To boost their power levels significantly, mastering Haki will be crucial as they venture into the New World.
