6- SHANKS
Advertisements
“Red-Haired” Shanks is the captain of the Red Hair Pirates and a member of the Yonko that rule over the New World.
As the former rival of Mihawk who is known as the world’s greatest swordsman, Shanks himself is an immensely powerful swordsman.
He could match a blow from Whitebeard with only one arm, which is a testament of his prowess in swordsmanship. Shanks is also powerful enough to easily defend against Akainu’s magma fist using only his sword and Busoshoku Haki.
Shanks has mastered to full extent all 3 types of Haki. He’s the only character so far with an Haoshoku Haki that actually damaged physical things.
Shanks is probably the strongest character on the list but as a swordsman he ranks only fourth.
