One Piece: Oda Confirms A Character That Can One-Shot A Yonko

This article contains spoilers for the One Piece series.

The Elbaf arc in One Piece is already considered one of the best ever, and it’s still ongoing in the manga. The recent flashback to God Valley, detailing events from the past, has made the arc even more exciting. Fans have been waiting years for this flashback, and it’s been delivering so far. A major highlight was recently revealed: Rocks D. Xebec was defeated by Imu using a powerful technique called Domi Reversi.

Rocks was already incredibly powerful, but after absorbing Domi Reversi, his strength increased dramatically. It’s now confirmed he’s strong enough to defeat Big Mom and Kaido with a single blow. This makes the upcoming fight between Garp and Roger even more challenging, and highlights that they are significantly stronger than most of the Yonko in the world of One Piece.

Domi Reversi Rocks D. Xebec Can One Shot A Yonko

Rocks Easily Defeated Big Mom and Kaido Together

During the Elbaf arc in One Piece, Rocks D. Xebec quickly established himself as an incredibly powerful character. Flashbacks revealed numerous impressive accomplishments, including being on equal footing with Harald, the strongest King Elbaf has ever known. He also effortlessly defeated a Navy Admiral. Even more remarkably, Xebec infiltrated and escaped the heavily guarded Flower Room, a feat Imu couldn’t prevent.

Rocks proved his strength in God Valley by effortlessly defeating Garling Figarland, the strongest of the Holy Knights. Even with support from another Holy Knight and a large force of Domi Reversi’d Davy Clan members, Garling was no match for Rocks, and no one else could challenge him either.

Overall, Rocks is incredibly powerful, but Oda has significantly increased his abilities. It was revealed that Rocks was affected by Imu’s Domi Reversi, which has boosted his power, speed, and size, and also granted him immortality.

I was absolutely stunned watching Rocks fight. He’s gotten incredibly powerful, and it showed immediately – he took down Big Mom and Kaido with a single blow, not even needing any special attacks! It’s amazing considering those two would later become Emperors of the Sea. But it didn’t stop there. He even managed to overwhelm Whitebeard, who initially blocked his attack, but Rocks just pushed through with unbelievable force, sending Whitebeard flying into a mountain at God Valley, which then collapsed. It was a truly dominant display of power.

I’ve been thinking about the Rocks pirates, and it’s clear they had the potential to become incredibly powerful, even Yonko-level. However, during the God Valley incident, they hadn’t fully reached their prime yet – their true strength developed over time. Still, the fact that Domi Reversi’s crew managed to defeat three of them so decisively suggests they could have taken out even a fully-powered Yonko with a single attack.

How Domi Reversi’d Rocks Will Be Defeated

Garp and Roger Will Have To Kill Rocks

Despite Big Mom and Kaido not being at their strongest, defeating them both with a single blow – even without using a special attack – is incredibly impressive. This is especially true considering he also defeated Whitebeard, who was still a very powerful pirate with his Devil Fruit and Conqueror’s Haki at the time.

Domi Reversi is shaping up to be an incredibly powerful and frightening opponent, and Roger and Garp will need to work together just to stand a chance. Considering Roger and Garp weren’t at their strongest during the God Valley incident, many fans are finding it hard to believe they can actually defeat Domi Reversi Xebec.

Ultimately, Garp and Roger will need to fully unleash their Conqueror’s Haki and defeat Rocks D. Xebec. There’s no way to reverse what’s happening, and fans already know Xebec is defeated by them on that island.

The next chapter of One Piece, Chapter 1165, will be released next week on Sunday. While it becomes available in Japan at midnight on Monday, most international fans will be able to read it on November 9, 2025. You can find the official release for free on Manga Plus.
