Luffy has reached new heights in the Final saga of One Piece, recently being crowned as an Emperor of the Sea. He recently unlocked the power of the Gomu Gomu no Mi, allowing him to access Gear 5, which he considers to be his ultimate form.
Now a Yonko, Luffy possesses incredible strength, able to take on even the most skilled fighters in the One Piece universe and emerge victorious. His journey to this point has been long and challenging, surpassing numerous powerful individuals along the way. These were once formidable opponents who now find themselves overshadowed by Luffy in terms of power, influence, and overall status in the world of One Piece.
Kuzan
The 10th Ship Captain Of The Blackbeard Pirates
Aokiji arrives at Punk Hazard - The 10th Ship Captain Of The Blackbeard Pirates - Kuzan
Kuzan, a former Admiral of the Marines, is now the 10th Ship Captain of the Blackbeard Pirates. He used to be an enemy of Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates, clashing with them on Long Ring Long Island. On that day, he completely defeated the crew on the island and emerged as the victor in his battle against Luffy.
Kuzan also engaged in combat against Luffy in the Paramount War, and back then, he was stronger. Right now, however, he is not strong enough to defeat Luffy or even match him in combat.
Borsalino
One Of The Three Marine Admirals

Borsalino was one of the main reasons behind the Straw Hat Pirates' defeat on Sabaody Island. He was much more powerful than all the crew members combined back then. However, currently, he is not strong enough to defeat Luffy in a fight.
Although he can put up a good fight against Luffy to some extent, he lacks the power needed to emerge victorious. Luffy has outmatched him ever since he unlocked the abilities of Gear 5, which is evident to the fans.
Dracule Mihawk
The World's Strongest Swordsman
Dracule Mihawk - The World's Strongest Swordsman
Mihawk, known as the World's Strongest Swordsman, is a formidable opponent who very few can match in combat. In the past, he was significantly more powerful than Luffy and even attempted to take his life during the Paramount War. It was clear that Mihawk was operating on a completely different level during that time.
Now, however, the tables have turned. Luffy is stronger than Mihawk at this point in time, and he has already surpassed him in every aspect of battle, infamy, and authority.
Sakazuki
The Fleet Admiral of the Marines
One Piece Magu Magu no Mi Sakazuki Devil Fruit Magma Marine Admiral Logia - The Fleet Admiral of the Marines
Fleet Admiral Sakazuki is known for being one of the most powerful individuals in the One Piece world. He wields the Magu Magu no Mi, a Logia type Devil Fruit that grants him the ability to transform into magma and manipulate it at will.
In addition to his Devil Fruit powers, Sakazuki also possesses strong control over Haki, as seen during the Paramount War. Fans have witnessed his impressive strength on numerous occasions. However, despite his abilities, he has been outmatched by Luffy, who now surpasses him with Gear 5 and powerful Haki. While Sakazuki can still put up a fight against Luffy, it is evident that Luffy has risen to a higher level.
Rayleigh
The Right Hand Man Of Roger

Rayleigh, known as the Dark King, remains a formidable force despite his advanced age. As the former right-hand man of Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King, he possesses exceptional mastery over all three forms of Haki. Even in his old age, Rayleigh's power is undeniable, and until recently, he surpassed even Luffy in strength.
Rayleigh can no longer match up to Luffy since the Wano Country arc climax. Luffy has surpassed him in combat a long time ago, and the gap between them will only continue to widen.
Big Mom
One Of The Yonko Of The Sea

Big Mom, the former Yonko of the Sea, is known as one of the most powerful individuals in the world of One Piece. As an Emperor, Big Mom was considered to be superior to Luffy during the Whole Cake Island arc and most of the Wano arc.
However, everything changed when Luffy awakened his Devil Fruit and tapped into the power of Gear 5. By also harnessing the ability to use Conqueror's Haki, Luffy not only equaled Big Mom in strength but also surpassed her in combat. Ultimately, Luffy dethroned both Big Mom and Kaido in Wano, establishing himself as an Emperor.
Kaido
The Strongest Creature In The World
Kaidou After Falling From A Sky Island - The Strongest Creature In The World
Luffy faced off against Kaido in the Wano Country arc. Despite losing to him three times, he eventually emerged victorious. It was only after almost losing his life and unlocking the power of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, that he was able to defeat Kaido. By combining this new power with his advanced mastery of Haki, Luffy achieved his long-awaited triumph.
Kaido was unable to match up against these challenges, leading to his defeat in the battle. Luffy's strength surpassed Kaido's towards the end of the Wano arc, and has only continued to increase since then.
Kozuki Oden
The Legendary Samurai Of Wano
One Piece Kozuki Oden Twin Swords - The Legendary Samurai Of Wano
Kozuki Oden, the legendary Samurai of Wano, was highly respected by Kaido for his immense strength. He was considered one of the few who could potentially defeat Kaido, until Luffy came along and proved himself by defeating the powerful pirate.
Oden was known for his mastery of all three types of Haki, making him a formidable force. However, Luffy managed to surpass Oden during the Wano Country arc when he finally defeated Kaido, thanks to the awakening of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika.
