Marines are the harbingers of justice who roam the seas to bring criminals to justice and save the innocent. They have been on the frontlines against the pirates for centuries, and it’s because of their hard work that the world has not been overrun by criminals. There are different ranks within the Marines, and they are given based on an individual’s experiences and what they have achieved.
The rank of Admiral is among the most prestigious, and at one time, only three people could hold the title. They are called the strongest military force in the world and are ridiculously powerful. That said, the Admirals are not invincible. With that in mind, here are some One Piece characters that are strong enough to defeat an Admiral.
One Piece: 7 Non-Yonkos Stronger Than Luffy, Ranked
Luffy has some of the strongest Devil Fruit and Haki abilities in the story, but here are 5 characters who are still stronger than him!
9
Silvers Rayleigh
- Right Hand Of Pirate King
Rayleigh is one of the most important characters in the entire series. He is the one who taught Luffy how to use different types of Haki. Unsurprisingly, Rayleigh is a Haki master himself who can use its advanced forms, a feat that has only been accomplished by a handful of people. His strength is recognized by everyone, and even Blackbeard refused to fight him. Rayleigh already fought Kizaru in Sabaody, and the latter admitted that he couldn’t beat the Dark King.
8
Sengoku
- Former Fleet Admiral Of The Navy
Sengoku is a highly reputed individual who has been with the Navy for a very long time. He has been praised for his strength and tactical genius by his peers and his enemies. During the Marineford arc, it was his instructions that helped the Marines secure the victory. He possesses a very rare mythical Zoan Devil Fruit that allows him to transform into a golden Buddha. It also grants him a shock-based power that can rival the Gura Gura no Mi.
9 Strongest Pirates That Aren’t Yonko in One Piece, Ranked
The Yonko are powerful, but they aren’t the only strong pirates in One Piece.
7
Dracule Mihawk
- World’s Strongest Swordsman
Mihawk is a member of the Cross Guild and one of the strongest characters in the world. He is a powerhouse who has fought against the likes of Shanks. Save for the short skirmish with Vista, Mihawk hasn’t been in an all-out fight for a very long time. Despite the lack of feats, Mihawk remains the best swordsman in the world whose skills with the sword remain unparalleled.
6
The Gorosei
- Imu’s Most Trusted Underlings
These five individuals are the second-highest authority in world government. They dictate what goes on in the entire world. The Gorosei were portrayed as noncombatants, but that was far from the truth. In reality, they are monsters whose power is comparable to that of natural disasters. They possess Devil Fruit powers, which allow all of them to transform into mythical beasts. Furthermore, they are powerful Haki users, which makes them even more terrifying.
One Piece: 6 Strongest Marines From The Old Generation, Ranked
The new generation of the Marines is strong, but it can’t compare to these old generation legends in One Piece.
5
Imu
Imu was once a mysterious character, but that’s not the case anymore. His reveal made it clear that Imu possesses powers that can’t be matched by anyone in the world right now. During the Elbaph arc, Imu made his first fill appearance and ruined the plans of Luffy and his friends in mere seconds. Even Loki was unable to harm Imu, which just goes to show the latter’s incredible strength.

Sakazuki
- Fleet Admiral Of The Navy
Akainu is an avid believer of absolute justice, and it’s safe to say that he is the bane of every single pirate. In his eyes anyone, who stands in the way of justice is evil, and they need to be eradicated from the face of the world. He possesses an insane Devil Fruit and Haki. Both of these abilities helped him to defeat Aokiji in a 10-day-long battle.
3
Loki
- Accursed Prince Of Elbaph
Elbaph introduced one of the strongest characters in the entire series, Loki, the heir to Harald’s throne. In a short time, Loki has displayed some of the most absurd feats in One Piece. For instance, he was able to beat Harald, who had received a major power-up from Imu. In the recent chapters, Loki fought against Imu himself and gave him a pretty good fight.
2
Scooper Gaban
- Left Hand Of The Pirate King
Gaban is a former member of the Roger Pirates. He is one of the most powerful pirates alive. In fact, he is said to be equal to Rayleigh in strength. Gaban demonstrated his strength when he effortlessly defeated a God Knight. Since he doesn’t have a Devil Fruit, he primarily fights using Haki. Considering how Rayleigh was able to beat Kizaru, there’s no doubt that Gaban can do the same.
1
Monkey D. Garp
Garp may only be a vice admiral of the Marines, but that doesn’t mean he is by far the strongest Marine of all time. He doesn’t have a Devil Fruit, but that didn’t stop him from being the strongest. Garp has trained his Haki to such a high level that even a simple punch is filled with so much destructive power that it could level an island with a single hit. Furthermore, Garp was powerful enough to go toe-to-toe against Aokiji and he only lost because of the intervention of the Blackbeard Pirates.
