by

This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Elbaf arc.

Summary

  • The Holy Knights are unbeatable to the vast majority of opponents.
  • The Holy Knights are considered immortal, making them incredibly powerful.
  • Scopper Gaban demonstrated legendary strength by defeating a Holy Knight with ease.

In the storyline of “One Piece” known as the Elbaf arc, the Holy Knights have played a pivotal role. Readers have already witnessed numerous instances of these knights within the land of the Giants. The Holy Knights’ objective in Elbaf was to seize control and reduce it to rubble, compelling its Giants to forever obey the World Government during future conflicts.

Of course, it was only natural that the Straw Hat Pirates and those on Elbaf wouldn’t stand idly by in One Piece chapter 1148. As expected, significant battles ensued between them and the Holy Knights, leading to major clashes. Additionally, this confrontation provided insight into the power levels of certain Holy Knight members.

The Holy Knights Are Monsters In Their Own Right

  • The Holy Knights Are Unbeatable To The Vast Majority
  • They Are Immortal

The Holy Knights possess extraordinary powers, a fact easily recognized by all. Time and again, their abilities have been displayed to fans. For instance, when Shamrock Figarland and Gunko arrived in Elbaf, it became apparent that they were incredibly powerful. Notably, Shamrock’s power level surpasses that of Loki, making for an intriguing contrast. Moreover, Shamrock was convinced that Gunko could defeat Loki even if he were uncontrolled.

It’s no use. We can’t beat them. They’re immortal. — Luffy on the Five Elders

In addition to Shamrock’s departure from Elbaf, two new Holy Knights emerged: Saint Sommers and Saint Killingham. Each of these characters possesses considerable strength individually. At the very least, it is confirmed that they surpass Navy Vice Admirals in strength. The unique characteristic of the Holy Knights is their immortality; they have not yet been defeated by any known means, making them stronger than any other character, even Luffy currently lacks the ability to defeat them. However, a significant demonstration of their power was shown in One Piece chapter 1148.

Gaban One-Shot Saint Sommers of The Holy Knights

Scopper Gaban Showed His Legendary Strength

In the 1148th chapter of One Piece, the battle against Holy Knight Sommers was monumental for Gaban. He stormed into the fray and dealt a crushing blow, leaving Sommers severely injured. With astonishing speed, Gaban seemed to cover vast distances in the blink of an eye. Then, it appeared as if he had imbued his axes with the powerful Haki known as Supreme King, causing him to amputate Sommers’ arm.

Wait what? Its not regenerating? — Sommers upon being hit by Gaban

To everyone’s astonishment, Sommers’s arm failed to regenerate under these circumstances. Then, in an overwhelming attack, Gaban swiftly sliced Sommers across the chest using Haki, delivering a fatal blow that left him defeated, with not a single scratch on Gaban.

Most Holy Knights Aren’t Yonko Level

It’s clear after Sommers’ loss that not every Holy Knight matches the power of a Yonko, but it doesn’t mean there are no exceptions. Characters like Shamrock and Gunko possess strength comparable to the Yonko, and spectators recognize the immense potential in Gunko. Garling, formerly a member of the Holy Knights, is believed to be at the same level as the Yonko, or even surpassing them. This suggests that the might among the Holy Knights can fluctuate. Nevertheless, they’re all formidable. Although Sommers was swiftly defeated, he deserves recognition as a top-tier Yonko Commander. Interestingly, their immortality allows them to outmatch any Yonko Commander in combat.

One Piece’s new chapter, number 1148, will arrive next week, specifically on May 11 worldwide (except in Japan where it will be released at midnight JST on Monday, May 12). Most international readers will gain access to the chapter on May 11. The official release date for One Piece Chapter 1148 is May 11, 2025. Excitingly, fans can read it for free on Manga Plus!
