Momonosuke has the potential to reach the same level as the Yonko, thanks to his inherited powers and continuous growth.
Trafalgar Law’s extraordinary abilities and unwavering quest for truth place him in close proximity to the Yonko level. Sanji, Zoro, and Boa Hancock, formidable warriors in their own right, are projected to ascend to the Yonko level before the series concludes, as they continue to develop and progress.
In the Final Saga of One Piece, fans are captivated by the intense storyline and the emergence of powerful characters. As the story reaches its climax, it is inevitable that formidable characters are on the rise. Several next-generation characters have already proven themselves worthy opponents to the Yonko. Luffy himself has recently achieved this esteemed status. While there may not be any additional newly appointed Yonko, there will be a select few fighters who will reach this level in the Final Saga.
7 Kozuki Momonosuke
Momonosuke is currently not a formidable fighter, which is evident to the fans. However, it is undeniable that he possesses the potential to attain the same strength as the Yonko. This potential stems from his possession of Kaido's Devil Fruit power, courtesy of Vegapunk's creation. With these abilities, Momo wields the same powers as Kaido, with the only distinction being the color of his dragon form, which is pink.
Adding to his potential, Momo carries the genetic heritage of Oden within him, enabling him to continually grow stronger. He has made a solemn vow to surpass Oden one day, and that day is swiftly approaching. Upon achieving this feat, Momo will have ascended to the level of the Yonko. It is possible that fans may witness this momentous accomplishment before the Final Saga concludes.
6 Trafalgar Law
Law, a powerful member of the Worst Generation pirates, had been a top contender in the search for the One Piece. With a staggering bounty of 3 billion berries, he is on the verge of reaching the level of the Yonko. Despite a recent defeat at the hands of Blackbeard, Law remains determined to regroup with his crew and embark on his journey anew, emerging even stronger than before. Fans are aware of his immense abilities and eagerly await his triumphant return. His ultimate goal is to uncover the truth of the world, which necessitates attaining a level of strength that allows him to not only protect himself but also defend his loyal crew.
5 Yamato
Yamato, the offspring of Kaido, is an exceptionally formidable fighter. Endowed with her father's monstrous power, Yamato possesses a tremendous mastery of Haki. Notably, she wields all three types of Haki, alongside an advanced version of Conqueror's Haki.
Adding to her prowess, Yamato also possesses the Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Okuchi no Makami. This immensely powerful Devil Fruit empowers her to effortlessly shape-shift into a guardian deity fox and its hybrid form. Already formidable enough to confront and hold her ground against Kaido, Yamato is projected to further enhance her abilities over time.
4 Sabo
Sabo, the second-in-command to Dragon, is renowned for his exceptional fighting abilities. His reputation as the Flame Emperor precedes him, as he possesses immense strength, capable of taking on Admirals. With his recent acquisition of the Mera Mera no Mi, Sabo's potential for growth is tremendous. Fans can anticipate his further development in the Final Saga, where he aims to ascend to the level of the Yonko. Undoubtedly, he stands among the most skilled fighters, poised to reach even greater heights.
3 Sanji
Sanji, one of the Pirate King's Wings and one of Luffy's most formidable subordinates, possesses tremendous power. A remarkable bounty of 1.032 billion berries puts a target on his head. Although Sanji has already established himself as an exceptional fighter, there is still ample room for further growth. Oda has hinted at the significance of Sanji's genetic development, suggesting that the story will explore this aspect further.
Additionally, as the Straw Hat Pirates continue their journey in the Final Saga, Sanji will confront increasingly powerful adversaries, necessitating his own growth in strength. It is certain that by the conclusion of the series, Sanji will have achieved Yonko-level status.
2 Roronoa Zoro
Zoro, the second-in-command of the Straw Hat Pirates, is currently a formidable Yonko commander. Despite his impressive strength, Zoro desires to ascend even further.
His ultimate goal is to become the World's Strongest Swordsman, which entails defeating Mihawk. Fans are well aware that Mihawk's power rivals that of the Yonko. If Zoro manages to defeat him, he will align himself with these mighty pirates.
1 Boa Hancock
Known as the Pirate Empress, Hancock is not only one of the most powerful fighters in One Piece, but also highly underestimated. She carries a colossal bounty of 1.659 billion berries, and her true strength is so remarkable that even Blackbeard acknowledges her ability to potentially defeat him using her Devil Fruit power.
In addition to her overwhelming power, Hancock is also proficient in all three types of Haki. Although the extent of her control over these abilities has yet to be fully revealed, it is anticipated that she possesses mastery over the advanced forms of Haki, given her affiliation with the Kuja tribe, which is renowned for their expertise in this skill. It would be unwise to discount Hancock's capabilities, as she is bound to prove herself as a Yonko-level fighter in the future.
