This article reveals spoilers related to the Elbaf Arc in One Piece.
Important Highlights
- Numerous skilled Haki practitioners in One Piece do not possess the title of captain, such as Katakuri, Ben Beckman, and Rayleigh.
- Exceptional Haki users like Kuzan, Sanji, and Zoro have refined their Armament and Observation Haki to extraordinary levels.
- Kozuki Oden is recognized as an exceptional Haki master, capable of causing severe injury to formidable opponents like Kaido.
The universe of One Piece showcases numerous formidable Haki users. Among them, the Yonko are recognized as the most potent Haki wielders in the narrative, and similarly, nearly all pirate captains outside of Yonko crews are also incredibly formidable.
This often eclipses the impressive Haki users who, although not captains, still command immense power. Oda has introduced a plethora of such characters throughout the story, each possessing strengths that should not be overlooked.
8. Katakuri
The Strongest Sweet Commander of Big Mom
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation, Conqueror’s Haki
Katakuri is an adept Haki user, renowned for mastering all three Haki types, particularly exhibiting high-level Observation Haki. His advanced Observation ability allows him to perceive future events. Additionally, he exhibits impressive skills in Armament Haki.
While not capable of Internal Destruction Haki, Katakuri wields a highly durable form of Armament Haki, which can inflict damage even upon Gear 4 users—a notable feat. Furthermore, he demonstrates proficiency in basic Conqueror’s Haki.
7 Kuzan
The 10th Ship Captain of Blackbeard
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation
Kuzan is an immensely powerful fighter, primarily relying on his Devil Fruit in battles. However, his Haki is nothing to dismiss. Trained by Garp daily, Kuzan’s Haki has reached a formidable level. He refined his skills using Battleship Bags, enabling him to inflict damage on ships without the need for Haki.
This training not only augmented his raw strength but also enhanced his Haki capabilities. Kuzan’s Haki allows him to compete against titans like Garp, pushing him back with Haki-infused strikes. His proficiency in Observation Haki is noteworthy, possibly allowing him to utilize Future Sight.
6 Sanji
The Wings of the Pirate King
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation
Sanji is an exceptionally powerful pirate and undoubtedly one of the most formidable members of the Straw Hat crew. His Observation Haki is notably impressive, possibly surpassing even Luffy’s in certain respects, despite his inability to foresee future events. He has also developed strong Armament Haki abilities.
Having trained his Armament Haki over the years, Sanji can maintain the intense flames of Ifrit Jambe on his legs without burning himself. This durability is crucial, considering Ifrit Jambe’s destructive potential, which can incapacitate a commander with only a few hits. Sanji’s ability to withstand such flames signifies his status as one of the strongest Armament Haki users in One Piece.
5 Ben Beckman
The First Mate of the Red Hair Pirates
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation
Ben Beckman is an incredibly formidable character whose true strength remains largely unseen. Nonetheless, it is clear that he possesses significant Haki skills, especially considering he does not rely on a Devil Fruit.
While it’s presumed that he may have access to all three Haki types, current knowledge confirms his capabilities in Armament and Observation Haki. His Armament Haki has been compared to that of the Admirals, implying that he possesses considerable power.
4 Zoro
The Combatant of the Straw Hats
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation, Conqueror’s Haki
Zoro, as the swordsman of the Straw Hat Pirates, stands out as an elite Haki user. He is proficient in all three types of Haki and displays advanced proficiency in Conqueror’s Haki due to Enma.
This sword enhances Zoro’s innate Haki, allowing him to fully express his King of Hell technique. However, Zoro struggles to maintain his complete Haki output for extended periods and lacks fine control over this particular type.
3 Mihawk
The World’s Best Swordsman
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation
Mihawk, known as the world’s greatest swordsman and a subordinate of Buggy, is undeniably powerful. He is confirmed to wield two types of Haki: Observation and Armament, and both are likely trained to their peak.
While it remains unclear whether Mihawk possesses Conqueror’s Haki, it is widely believed that he does and has advanced it significantly. Although he hasn’t showcased any spectacular Haki feats, it is understood that Mihawk’s Haki is immensely powerful.
2 Rayleigh
The Dark King
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation, Conqueror’s Haki
Rayleigh, also known as the Dark King, is an extraordinary pirate, admired by Garp and compared to the Yonko. As a non-Devil Fruit user, he has mastered all three Haki types, showcasing advanced skills in both Armament and Conqueror’s Haki.
Rayleigh can employ Internal Destruction Haki and infuse Supreme King Haki effectively. His ability to force Blackbeard to retreat at Amazon Lily demonstrates the incredible mastery he has over Haki.
1 Kozuki Oden
The Prodigal Son of Wano
- Types of Haki: Armament, Observation, Conqueror’s Haki
Kozuki Oden is undeniably one of the most powerful Haki masters in One Piece, if not the most formidable. He is known for his exceptional use of Ryuo and Conqueror’s Haki. Oden’s Haki was potent enough to inflict serious injury on Kaido, leaving a significant scar across his chest and causing him immense pain.
If not for a timely interruption, Oden could have potentially defeated Kaido, an impressive feat in its own right. His exceptional Conqueror’s Haki enabled him to perform such extraordinary accomplishments, making him the standout non-captain Haki user in the series.
