Unveiling the Unrivaled Powerhouses: The Top 10 Yonko-Affiliated Devil Fruit Users in One Piece

One Piece, a beloved series that has been captivating audiences for over two decades, remains as popular as ever. Its intricate and emotionally-driven storytelling combined with a diverse cast of well-developed characters has endeared it to fans worldwide. Within the vast expanse of the Grand Line's New World, four formidable pirate captains, collectively known as the Yonko, reign supreme.

Originally comprising of Whitebeard, Big Mom, Kaido, and Shanks, the roster of Yonko has evolved over time. The current lineup includes Shanks, Luffy, Blackbeard, and Buggy, with Buggy being the exception in terms of power and influence. Each Yonko, with the exception of Buggy, possesses tremendous might, and their subordinates are equally formidable. Many of these loyal followers possess mastery over various forms of Haki, a spiritual power, and a significant number of them wield potent abilities granted by their Devil Fruit powers.

10 Jozu

The Whitebeard Pirates, a formidable Yonko crew, had Jozu as their 3rd division commander. With a twenty-year tenure, Jozu possessed impressive Armament Haki, which allowed him to inflict damage upon Logia users such as Crocodile.

Jozu consumed the Twinkle-Twinkle Fruit, a Paramecia ability that enables him to transform any body part into diamond. His diamond skin greatly augments his physical strength and provides him with nearly impenetrable defense. Even the world's strongest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk, was unable to harm Jozu when his most potent strike was blocked.

9 Nico Robin

Nico Robin's heartbreaking backstory makes her one of the most tragic characters in One Piece. Despite her initial belief that the Straw Hats would betray or abandon her, she has since become an adored member of the crew. As a child, she consumed the Flower-Flower Fruit, granting her the power to sprout replicas of her body parts on any surface.

In combat, Robin often utilizes her ability to sprout numerous arms on her adversaries, effectively fracturing their bones. She is also capable of creating clones of herself and summoning colossal limbs to crush or trample her foes. Robin's unique skillset proves incredibly valuable when facing multiple opponents simultaneously.

8 Charlotte Smoothie

Charlotte Smoothie, the 14th daughter of Big Mom, currently holds the esteemed position of Sweet Commander within the formidable Big Mom Pirates. As a Longleg-human hybrid, her towering height can be attributed to her unique ancestry. Notably, Smoothie possesses remarkable skill in employing Observation and Armament Haki.

Through her possession of the mystical Wring-Wring Fruit, Smoothie can efficiently extract liquid from both animate and inanimate objects. When directed towards individuals, this extraordinary ability leaves them severely dehydrated, distorting their physical form. Armed with a sword fashioned in the shape of a drill bit, Smoothie further exploits her power to drain the life force of those unfortunate enough to be struck.

7 Queen

Queen, a brilliant scientist, has successfully undergone a transformation into a cyborg. As one of Kaido's esteemed commanders, his exceptional strength and formidable Armament Haki can be attributed to this. Furthermore, Queen has consumed an Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit, granting him the extraordinary ability to morph into a brachiosaurus or a combination of both human and brachiosaurus forms.

The consumption of this rare Devil Fruit has exponentially augmented Queen's physical capabilities, while his dinosaur-like skin affords him additional resilience. Utilizing his elongated neck as a formidable weapon, Queen can deliver powerful strikes and unleash devastating headbutts during combat. Additionally, his cyborg enhancements enable him to emit laser beams from his mouth, adding yet another lethal capability to his arsenal.

6 Shiryu

Shiryu, once the chief jailer of Impel Down, rose to become one of the Ten Titanic Captains of the fearsome Blackbeard Pirates. Despite his imprisonment for brutally executing prisoners, Shiryu's unparalleled mastery of the nodachi sword enables him to effortlessly dispatch foes with lightning-fast strikes.

Interestingly, Shiryu did not consume the Clear-Clear Fruit directly. Instead, he gained its extraordinary abilities when the Blackbeard Pirates encountered Absolom, the former wielder. With this newfound power, Shiryu can render himself and any object he touches invisible, allowing him to silently approach his targets undetected.

5 Crocodile

Crocodile was a member of the Seven Warlords and simultaneously held the position of president in the Baroque Works crime syndicate. Following the disbandment of the Seven Warlords by the World Government, Crocodile and Mihawk joined forces, assisting each other in evading the Marines. Together, along with Buggy the Clown, they formed the Cross Guild.

Due to a series of events, Buggy ended up being mistakenly acknowledged as the leader of the Cross Guild, consequently earning the title of Yonko. This is the reason why Crocodile is regarded as Buggy's subordinate. Crocodile possessed the ability to manipulate sand after consuming the Sand-Sand Fruit. This power enabled him to generate sandstorms of considerable magnitude. Furthermore, upon physical contact, he could extract all moisture from an individual's body.

4 Charlotte Katakuri

Katakuri, aside from his mother, holds the title of the strongest member within the Big Mom Pirates. He possesses a mastery of all three types of Haki, with his Observation Haki being particularly notable as it grants him glimpses into the future. The source of his formidable abilities lies in the Mochi-Mochi Fruit, enabling him to generate, manipulate, and even assume the form of mochi.

While the Mochi-Mochi Fruit may not initially appear as a potent asset, Katakuri has honed its powers to truly remarkable levels. Employing this Paramecia ability, he can alter his body much like a Logia user would, evading incoming attacks effortlessly. Additionally, he can extend tendrils from his body, imbued with the strength of Haki, to deliver devastating blows. Due to the dense and adhesive nature of his mochi, he is capable of immobilizing formidable fighters such as Luffy.

3 King

King, like his fellow Lunarians, possesses dark skin and silver hair. With the aid of his large black wings, he possesses the ability to soar through the skies effortlessly, while also possessing the natural ability to produce fire. Throughout the span of 30 years, he has remained Kaido's trusted right-hand, with his formidable Armament Haki enabling him to engage in intense clashes alongside Zoro and his three enhanced swords.

Furthermore, King has consumed an Ancient Zoan Devil Fruit, bestowing upon him the power to morph into a remarkable pteranodon at his command. In this form, he can achieve astounding speeds during flight and possesses a formidable level of endurance. His beak serves as a lethal spear, and while in his hybrid state, he can utilize his wing-arms to generate razor-sharp gusts capable of slicing through even the most resilient structures.

2 Marco

Marco, the commander of the 1st division of the Whitebeard Pirates, briefly took charge of the crew following the Summit War at Marineford. Consuming a Mythical Zoan, he acquired the power to morph into a blazing blue phoenix. His mastery of this ability allows him to transform any portion of his body as required.

During the Onigashima Raid, Marco displayed his formidable strength by successfully taking on both King and Queen. This comes as no surprise, as his Devil Fruit is exceptionally potent. Its unparalleled regenerative capabilities enable Marco to swiftly heal most wounds within seconds. Furthermore, certain long-range attacks are unable to harm him, effortlessly passing through his body.

1 Kuzan

Kuzan, formerly a Marine Admiral, now holds the position of one of Blackbeard's Ten Titanic Captains. Being an Admiral signifies his immense strength, making him one of the most formidable characters in the One Piece world.

Utilizing a heightened version of Armament Haki, Kuzan can project power from his body within a limited range. Possessing the Ice-Ice Fruit, a Logia type Devil Fruit, grants him the ability to create and morph into ice at will. This power allows him to effortlessly fashion weapons and renders him impervious to most non-Haki attacks. His proficiency in freezing individuals is exceptional, and he has even showcased the capability to permanently alter an island's weather patterns.
