It's time to admit that Shanks is stronger than Gol D. Roger in One Piece

one piece There's no shortage of overpowering characters, and now that the series is part of the Final Saga, Oda is doing his best to showcase the power of the elites he's been saving for years. In the current era of pirates, Oda makes it clear that Yonko like Shanks and Blackbeard, who have already firmly taken control and maintained their territories, are at the forefront, while Luffy and Buggy stand out as newcomers.

At the same time, there is also a Marine Admiral, and now Oda is working with the Five Elders to wreak havoc on people like the Holy Knights. Although these individuals are all special in their own way, fans always wonder who is the strongest. For now, it seems like the answer to that question is Shanks. In fact, Shanks may be stronger than previous generations of Pirates. Gol D. Roger and Rox D. Xebec. It may sound unreasonable to some fans, but based on Oda's own narrative construction, In his prime, Shanks may be stronger than either of them.This makes him the most powerful pirate of the modern era.

Shanks could have surpassed both Rox and Roger

The rock was Harald's equal in strength.

• Loki killed Harald after the Domi Reversi buff.

• Shanks defeated Loki

The new generation outperforming the previous generation is not surprising at all. one piece. Luffy is destined to surpass Shanks and Roger, and even Blackbeard will surpass his father Rocks D. Xebec. There is no reason to doubt that it should be possible. Shanks surpasses Roger. The real question is how he was able to surpass him. To understand this, fans need only look to the narrative that Oda has built himself.

First of all, when we talk about the old legends of the One Piece world, there are two characters that stand out more than anyone else: Gol D. Roger and Rox D. Zebek. Roger was the pirate king and one of the strongest men, and Roger was a monstrous legend who was said to be Roger's greatest enemy.

For Roger and Rocks, power was relative. In reality, Roger and Garp defeated Roger together after he was Domi Reversi'd by Imu. It's actually stated in the story that Domi Reversi makes the character many times stronger. That means Roger and Garp couldn't beat the buffed Rocks on their own. That means their base strengths were roughly similar. Another interesting character who was Domi Reversi'd in One Piece is none other than King Harald.

Harald appeared as Rocks' great rival. In reality, the two were close in power, and Rox had great respect for his power. It is clearly known that Loki killed Harald. But Elbaf's flashback shows that Loki didn't just kill Harold; Domi Riverside HaraldMust be stronger than Rocks. In other words, Loki would now be stronger than Rox.

Finally we get to Shanks. beat rocky It was none other than him. very same Rocky defeats Domi Reversi Haroldwho was stronger than Rox, lost to Shanks six years ago. This clearly indicates that Shanks is stronger than Rocks and even Roger.

Shanks may have already surpassed Roger

Shanks' Haki has been compared to Joy Boy.

Shanks surpasses Roger Very possible. After all, Roger himself predicted it. Shanks will be the next king. Another very clear indicator that Shanks is likely stronger than Roger and Rocks is his Haki. In God Valley, Roger, Whitebeard, Big Mom, Garp, and Rocks all used powerful Haki attacks on Imu, but failed to manage even a single scratch.

When I was young I thought to myself, 'Oh, I want to draw a cartoon with the coolest final stage! I wonder if I can do it! We're just a few days away from Wanoak, and preparations are almost complete. It took me 25 years lol. That means it's okay if you start reading now. Because from now on… it is… THE ONE PIECE!! I will draw all the mysteries of this world! It will be so much fun! Fasten your seat belt! And please stay with us just a little longer! — Eiichiro Oda, One Piece author, 2022

But in Egghead Dorry and Brogy were comparing Shanks' Haki to Joy Boy's Haki.I'm curious Joy Boy was stronger. This Haki sent shivers down Imu's spine and caused terrible pain. If Shanks is at that level, there is no doubt that he has already surpassed Roger.
