Luffy's Devil Fruit finally awakens in the Wano arc, giving birth to the legend of the reborn Sun God Nika. As Nika, Luffy attains an unprecedented level of power, enabling him to freely spread his influence wherever he goes.

The resurgence of Nika holds great significance in the Final Saga of One Piece. With numerous malevolent forces seeking to oppress and stifle humanity, Nika's role as the Warrior of Liberation ensures that Luffy will continue to engage in countless battles in this concluding chapter.

6 Luffy Vs Kizaru

Luffy is bound to clash with Kizaru, one of the Navy's three Admirals. Presently, Luffy finds himself on Egghead Island, under siege by the World Government. Kizaru is spearheading this operation, commanding a force of approximately 30,000 soldiers and 100 ships.

There is no doubt that Luffy and Kizaru will engage in combat here, even if it is a brief encounter. Fans have eagerly awaited this showdown for years. Up until now, Luffy has not faced off against an Admiral in a proper, full-scale battle, making this the perfect opportunity for Oda to illustrate an extraordinary fight between these formidable adversaries.

5 Luffy Vs Saturn

Luffy's transformation into Nika has raised major concerns among the Five Elders, who are well aware of his immense power. They also recognize Luffy as one of their most formidable adversaries. Currently, one of the Five Elders named Saint Jaygarcia Saturn is stationed on Egghead Island. His mission is to support the operation aimed at assassinating Vegapunk and destroying any evidence pertaining to the void century.

With Luffy's presence, the situation takes a drastic turn. Saturn is likely the strongest member of the fleet, and considering Luffy's tendency to challenge formidable foes, he becomes the perfect nemesis for him. This highly anticipated clash allows fans to witness Nika Luffy confronting one of the revered Five Elders, who serve as the Royal Guard of Imu.

4 Luffy Vs Shanks

The much anticipated battle between Luffy and Shanks is bound to occur in the world of One Piece. This is even more apparent now, as Shanks has joined the race for the One Piece and is actively pursuing it. While Shanks played a significant role in guiding Luffy towards his goal of becoming the Pirate King, he won't make it easy for him.

It is highly likely that the clash between Luffy and Shanks will take place on the fearsome island of Elbaf, often referred to as the battleground. Fans have previously witnessed Shanks overpowering Kid on this island, and it is here that Luffy will encounter the might of yet another Yonko. With the extraordinary power of his Nika fruit, Luffy is undoubtedly capable of toppling Shanks as well.

3 Luffy Vs Sakazuki

Luffy's most formidable foe is the current Fleet Admiral of the Navy, Sakazuki. His personal vendetta against Sakazuki stems from the fact that he was responsible for Ace's death, as well as the scar that Luffy bears on his chest.

Each mention of Sakazuki causes Luffy's scar to throb. In the ultimate showdown of One Piece, the Navy is destined to clash with various factions, and Luffy is certain to find himself in the thick of it all. When Sakazuki eventually acts, he will undoubtedly block Luffy's path. Fans would be thrilled to witness the epic battle between Luffy, known as the "Mugiwara no Luffy," and the immensely powerful Sakazuki, nicknamed the "Magma Man."

2 Luffy Vs Blackbeard

The inevitable clash between Luffy and Blackbeard in One Piece has been teased since the Jaya arc. However, fans will have to patiently await this epic battle, as Blackbeard is considered an ultimate adversary for Luffy. Both Luffy and Blackbeard are powerful Yonko, but they embody contrasting forces - Luffy representing the Sun God and the Warrior of Liberation, while Blackbeard embodies darkness itself.

This destined clash holds the potential to be the greatest challenge Luffy will ever face as a pirate. It's important to mention that Blackbeard played a role in Ace's death and is also responsible for Garp's mysterious absence.

1 Luffy Vs Imu

Luffy's upcoming battle with Imu will likely occur during the Great War of One Piece. At present, very few individuals are aware of the true identity of Saint Nerona Imu, the ruler of the world, and their immense powers were demonstrated during Sabo's Reverie flashback.

Imu has a strong interest in Luffy, and when the war finally erupts, these two formidable forces will undoubtedly collide. It is conjectured that Nika may have clashed with Imu in the past, considering the latter's existence since the Void Century. With Nika reborn, the time has come for their epic confrontation. Luffy's showdown with Imu promises to be one of the most unforgettable moments in One Piece.
