Roger was already strong at this point, and his powers only grew stronger later on.
One of the interesting things about Roger is that he has never tried a devil fruit. Roger, like the majority of his pirate crew, has been kept away from this power for one reason or another throughout his life. None of the Roger Pirates seemed to have Devil Fruit powers.. At the same time, the fans know it too Roger eventually trained his Haki. Best. It's obvious, but Roger had excellent control over Haki's powers.. He is known to use all three types, and his Conqueror Haki is absolutely monstrous in terms of power.
Roger's conqueror, Haki, was so powerful that not even the Admiral could withstand his overwhelming power.. Eventually he reached the pinnacle of power and later became the Pirate King.
Roger's mastery of the sea was very evident. No pirate could easily defeat him. In fact, fans know that other than the Kuja Pirates, there is no pirate team that defeated Roger. Even Rox, known as Roger's greatest enemy, could not defeat him. in fact, It was the latter who defeated Domi Reversed Rocks at God Valley with Garp's help.And this was before he was even in his prime.

But now, in One Piece's Final Saga, Oda has officially confirmed the pirate who has surpassed Roger's level, and this pirate is none other than Roger's disciple, Red-Haired Shanks.
To understand how Shanks is stronger than RogerFans need to take a look at the current events of the Elbaf arc. First of all, the Elbaf arc gave fans a proper look at Rocks D. Xebec's character. Through his flashbacks, fans got to see Harald as well as Roger Pirates. The strength of the Rocks is at the core of this entire argument. Fans know that Rocks was one of the most powerful pirates of the Old Age and one of Roger's fiercest rivals. At one point in the story, Rocks was much stronger than Roger, but this was before Roger's prime as a pirate.
At the same time, Oda also established that Harald was Rocks' equal in terms of strength. The two were friends and rivals with similar levels of power. Their first collision completely wiped out all traces of life within a 5km radius. Some fans may want to deny this, but Harald was incredibly powerful and on the same level as Rocks D. Xebec.. In fact, he surpassed the latter after receiving the Deep Sea Covenant from Imu, which further enhanced his power and gave him access to immortality. Without a doubt, Harald's power was greater than that of the Rocks.And that means bigger than Roger at God Valley 38 years ago.
Loki was stronger than Harold and Rox
14 years ago in the world of One Piece, fans witnessed a very decisive battle taking place in the land of Elbaf. There, Harald, controlled by Imu, went on a murderous rampage and was eventually stopped by his son Loki. What's particularly important to note here is that Loki completely defeated Harald in battle. In context, This same version of Harald was much more powerful than Rocks D. Xebec, but was easily defeated by Loki.
I am the sun god who appears in the legends of this land. You must not talk to me without permission, human. I consider myself the strongest being on this earth. This is Warland, Elbaf’s kingdom of violence. The world's most powerful nation once lived and breathed war. And I am the sun god who destroys the world, Loki! — Loki introduces himself in the Elbaf Arc.
One Piece: Oda, the strongest hockey user of the old era revealed
There have been many powerful package users since ancient times, and this person was truly the best.
Loki could not kill Harald without allowing him the opportunity to do so, but he was still able to overpower him in battle, something no one else could have done. in fact It is said that Loki, with his full power, can destroy the entire world.This is his power. However, one pirate far surpasses Loki's level of power: Shanks. That means Shanks is stronger than Harald, Rocks, and of course Roger.
Shanks defeated Loki himself six years ago.
Six years ago in the world of One Piece, Loki was wandering the sea, doing his best. At some point, you encounter the red-haired Shanks. A battle between the two monsters that shook the world of One Piece ensued, and the red-haired pirate became a Yonko. Shanks was able to defeat LokiAgainst all odds, this shouldn't be possible given Loki's power level. In fact, Loki is a Yonko level monster and possesses the legendary Devil Fruit, the power of which could even overwhelm Harald. furthermore, Next to him is Ragnir, another top tier.
me I wouldn't say that's unfair, Navy buddy. But raiding the old new green leaf that changed the age of piracy forever? Don't you think you're doing too much? Are you that afraid of the new era? – Shanks
Despite all this power, Shanks was able to defeat him.. The fact that Shanks was able to defeat such a monster by himself clearly means that he was at a level that surpassed not only King Harald of Elbaf but also Rox. In other words, Shanks surpassed the limits of Roger, Rox, and Harold and became the strongest pirate in One Piece..
