Hence he takes a low place behind the other top tiers. Garp injuring him, him tagging with other Commanders to hold off Akainu, Big Mom easily defeating him, etc are few examples of that. Though Marco is really strong, he is often shown to be falling short of the top tiers. Later in Wano Arc, he held off both King and Queen for a brief period and simultaneously treated several people at the same time. Marco shined in the Marineford arc where he fought Kizaru, Aokiji, etc briefly. His devil fruit allows him to regenerate which makes him invincible to physical attacks and takes strong Haki to attack him. He has both Observational and Armament Haki. Marco has one of the most powerful devil fruit, a Phoneix Mythical fruit. Marco is the former First division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates and led the payback war against Blackbeard. He overpowered Luffy for the majority of their battle.He was the biggest obstacle in the Big Mom Assassination plan.Yonko’s crew are really feared overall and the first commander in that crew will be one of the strongest in the verse. Luffy extremely struggled in his fight against Katakuri and the battle was a stalemate physically and Luffy won the battle psychologically. Katakuri is really strong which is put into perspective by Bege as he considered Katakuri the most dangerous foe in the Tea party. He has an advanced form of Observational Haki, Future sight. His devil fruit is a better version of Luffy’s rubber fruit and is also awakened. He is the second strongest member of Big Mom pirates which has so many top-tier fighters among them. He has all three types of Haki and his devil fruit Mochi is a special Paramecia. Katakuri is the First Sweet Commander of the Big Mom Pirates, the second eldest son of Big Mom, and acted as one of the antagonists of the Whole Cake Island Arc.

Written considering events upto chapter 1024“ Honorable Mentions: I tried to not get influenced by headcanons and tried to objectively pick the list yet there will be some decisions you will disagree with. There are so many other examples like this. Doflamingo may have been stronger but still, Oda wants Crocodile to be still in their league. Oda likes to keep the characters in a tier-like system rather than a binary system.įor example, if you take the Crocodile-Doflamingo conflict, pre-timeskip Luffy managed to defeat Crocodile but Crocodile is portrayed as an equal to Doflamingo in Marineford.

Power scaling in One Piece is complicated as Oda tends to not explicitly state the strength of characters. The power system is well defined and there are a lot of characters with varying power levels. With being the best selling of all time, it has a huge fan following all over the world.
