10-EDWARD WEEVIL
Edward Weevil, or “Whitebeard Jr.”, is the self-proclaimed son of “Whitebeard” Edward Newgate and one of the Shichibukai. His powers have been praised by Kizaru who compared his abilities to that of a younger Whitebeard, his alleged father.
He was able to single-handedly defeat 16 pirate crews affiliated with Whitebeard, including the A.O Pirates.
9-SENGOKU THE BUDDHA
Sengoku the Buddha was the Fleet Admiral of the Marines pre-timeskip, succeeding Kong and preceding Akainu.
Alongside Garp and Tsuru, Sengoku is one of the most powerful Marines of his generation. Even without his Devil Fruit powers, Sengoku has enormous strength, enough to effortlessly hold down an enraged Garp with only one hand.
8-AKAINU
Akainu is the current Fleet Admiral of the Marines, succeeding the previous fleet admiral, Sengoku.
He possesses tremendous physical strength, as shown when he pinned Whitebeard’s giant bisento down to the ground with just one leg. Furthermore, he was the one who emerged victorious from the ten day duel between him and Aokiji for the position of the fleet admiral.
Akainu’s background is renowned, especially among the stronger figures in the New World, striking fear into the hearts of pirates and marines alike. After Van Augur identified Akainu aboard a marine ship for negotiations, Blackbeard immediately fled, knowing the consequences of battling against him, even though Blackbeard had gained the powers of the Gura Gura no Mi, and had strengthened his crew with several of Impel Down’s most powerful criminals.
7-KOZUKI ODEN
Kozuki Oden was the daimyo of Kuri in Wano Country, the husband of Kozuki Toki and the father of Momonosuke and Hiyori.
Oden had tremendous physical strength since infancy, during which he flung his wet nurse across the room. By age two, he could catch rabbits with his bare hands, and at age four, he killed a bear by throwing a boulder at it. At adulthood, Oden could carry a giant Koi carp which he caught at sea by himself and exerted enough physical power in his swordsmanship to clash with Whitebeard’s Meito Murakumogiri. To match his tremendous strength, Oden also had astounding tolerance to pain, as he could hold a hot pot with his bare hands.
As a testament to his monsterous strength and endurance, Oden was able to hold up all nine of his retainers, each who are very large, on a thick wooden plank while his lower half was submerged for an extended period of time in a large pot of boiling oil, which killed an average man in seconds despite getting out. He survived being boiled alive in oil while the temperature continued to increase to over 700 degrees of heat for almost over an hour, a feat no one has managed before, which impressed even Kaido. Despite being near death, Oden could still muster the strength to throw all nine of his retainers a great distance away from the execution site.
