Discussion The strongest crew in One piece.

[one piece master]

I was also wondering who has the best crew in the whole world of one piece I think WB does just because of his numbers but there has to be some crews like shanks that rival WB

 

[DSJump]

Well, i guess all the yonkous are the strongest crews out there, or else, they wouldn't be part of yonkou.

Spoiler

Even though we saw in the latest chapter that whitebeard proved that his one bad a** mother f*****. naturally, we can asume that the WB pirates are the strongest.

Probably goes something like
WB
Shanks
Kaidou/Other Yonkou
I'm basing this on the fact that Shanks has a force big enough to destroy a fleet of 23 warships

WB, his crew, and allies have 47 ships! and can challange the WG openly. I doubt any other force aside from the WG and maybe Dragon's Revolutionary army could take on WB. So he's at the top for now.

 

[gao_dargon]

I have to go with the read haired pirates, (Shanks crew), the are few in numbers compared to the massive WB crew and still they went and confront them, knowing very well they might end up fighting, Shanks alone was able to make the newbies in WB crew to pass out, they have the smartest person in the east blue, and the (allegedly) "fastest man alive". True WB is attaking the WG right now,a feature that not only takes guts, but the power to back it up, but regardles of his stength he is not alone, he has quite a few of well named new world pirates with him, don't take me worng, WB is a yonkuo for a reazon, i just think the red haired pirates are stronger

P.D i have to say that im not counting the revolutionaries as a crew

 

[Lord Rayleigh]

At present, I guess it is the WB pirates. Only by himself, the captain is said to be able to destroy the world : that would be enough to solve the question.

Totally agreed,
I think the BB Pirates are also in the running...

I don't know about that.... It is true BB is massively powerful to the point where anyone should fear his strength but I don't know if we can say that about his crew. BB's crewmates have not shown to be exceptionally strong, at best they seem to be of supernova level. For them to be in the run for such a title they, as a crew, should be able to handle the strong guys around like the shichibukai, VA or admirals. BB is strong but a crew is not made of just one guy so I doubt that particular crew can be considered one of the strongest.

 

[Poneglyph420]

Of course the BB can't compare to the previously mentioned crews, but they bridge the gap between the Yonkou and "supernovas". Just Lafitte broke into the most secure place on earth, Van Auger shot an impossible shot, perfectly..and now they broke into ID to get another supposed "bad ass!!". On the threat level they are pretty scary. Even WB knew that BB would beat Ace. BB being Captn. doesn't count for anything compared to a yonkou.. They are #5 at best.. but in my mind not for long.. But if Moria once fought evenly with Kaidou and BB couldn't.. I'd lose all respect for him.. (Wait..I respect him!??)

Lafitte broke into Marijoea because of his wings, if I had wings too, I would broke into the Pentagon or Guantanamo quite easily
The only one in BB crew who prove to be something is Van Auger, the others no.

IMO, I think that WB crew is the strongest in the world

I'm not even sure where to start. OK Pell said in Arabasta fruits that allow one to fly are super rare. Like 5 i the world if I remember correctly. If they are so rare and even if his only power if flight, he's powerful. Let me make myself clear. I don't think the BB pirates are stonger than WB or Shanks' crew.
Just they are on their way to the top, we know too little of the others to say if they are that powerful. But if they continue on their current path, they could make a run to the top.

Whitebeard Pirates - No more words needed!

Dont get me wrong, im a huge shanks fan. But there is no way he can go up against whitebeard, he can challenge him and argue with him. And he's powerfull enough to keep WB at bay!

WB is currently the strongest one, there is no reason why he shouldnt be. Whitebeard is number one, FOR NOW! Remember this one, he is destined to loose his spot somehow!

Then there is BB, allready before he got the Devils fruit he was powerfull enough to take on Shanks himself! It's frigging ridicilous to hear people underestimate him time after time, BEFORE he got the devils fruit god dammit. And the most powerfull devils fruit in the world at that, the one he had been hunting for all his life! BB might even be more powerfull then WB is, perhaps he will show us just that in the duration of this arc!

Then there is the unknown Yonkou, I believe he is more powerfull then Shanks simply because they couldnt reveal a weaker Yonkou then the previous ones last. Perhaps the allready revealed "halfway" by face Yonkou is the secound strongest though.

Shanks, he holds both power and respect! I believe him to be the third most powerfull of the pirates. He's allso a Peace Main, aka a pirate that doesnt rob civilians and all of that shit! But fights for what is right, thats why I believe him to be third. Simply because Whitebeard if the "famous" one, Shanks is the Peace Main, and then there should be one inbetween them which is a terrible guy we all hate!

Last Yonkou comes last because Shanks cant! Oda would never do anything like say "Shanks is the weakest of the Yonkou".


But stop bullshitting about BB, he's up there with the Yonkou EASELY. Might even be on top!

Woah woah woah. BB himself may be able to fight a Yonkou. But BB and an his crew would get stomped by the Red-Haired Pirates.
The Red-Haired Pirates are rather powerful. They've got to be powerful considering 23 battleships were wiped out. Thats more than two Buster Calls!
We already know that Kaidou was intercepted by Shanks. So at the very least Shanks=Kaidou.
But Shanks doesn't seem like the type of guy to go into a fight without knowing he can win. Like when he said he wasn't concerned about the WG interfering, bam he anihilated a fleet. Shanks>Kaidou, besides Kaidou has the fighting power of say Moria.
Mihawk~Shanks
Moria~Kaidou

Mihawk>>Moria
Shanks>Kaidou

WB
Shanks
Unknown
Kaidou

 

[hisoga]

if in one piece, over all, i will choose choose rogers pirate....
but if about strongest crew alive in the current op chapters i'll choose WB

 

[tothx]

WTF you talking about, Moria was a pirate incapable of making it in the new world. He's among the strongest pirates on his side of the grand line but compared to Kaidou he's nothing more then a bug that might accidently be stepped on.

And Red Hair pirates taking 23 battleships, I mean.. So what? Blackbeards crew could probably have done the same with little trouble! Crew size means shite in one piece, nothing, nada. Mihawk took out a fleet of 5000 men with ease remember? (Right before he met Zoro) And all big shots in all crews this far have been comparable in strength to the captain, say Black Beard is currently on top (cause he will fight luffy), then Shiryuu (cause he will fight zoro), then probably the wrestling champion (i believe he might do something to the ladies that sanji wont like, possibly wrestling vs the power of cola though), doctor vs doctor (obviously), sniper vs sniper (again obvious).. Their power levels are transferrable to the power levels in Luffy's crew.

When both Blackbeard and Luffy can be called 10's, then Shiryuu and Zoro will be 9's, Sanji and his opponent 8's and so it goes. This is how the series is buildt up, so if Blackbeard is currently on the level where he can mess with Shanks then he's crew is sure to be on a level where they can challenge Shanks teammates!

Stop talking down Blackbeard, he's beeing buildt up as the most "ultimate" of enemies we have seen to date and may very well be the final enemy in one piece! He's got 35 years on the sea behind him and has allready probably reached the pinnacle of his power.

Then again, youre pretty far along on that rute thinking Moria is on the level of a Yonkou Obviously you dont have much of a clue

EDIT:
Oh yeah, and as far as Shanks = Kaidou goes, Shanks has allready said he see's himself in Luffy! And lets face it, Luffy has little fear when it comes to going up against a ridicilously strong enemy.

I appreciate and agree that you see the BB pirates in the top tier of OP, more people will see your point if you chill a bit. There is no doubt up to now WB has the strongest crew running... I also agree they too will soon fall and splinter. For now they win...........

BB has a crew much like the SH, small and specialized. Each member does something very very good. I think Van Auger, Lafitte, and Burgess have ability and with the addition of Shiryuu the crew stepped up a big notch.
Anyone from level 6 of ID is scary! Also in the sense they took down Drum and infiltrated both Mariejois and ID they are indeed a power crew. Also in the sense of drama (this is manga) Oda has "painted" them as an epic evil crew. We have to consider all forms of power also. It seems like if it's raw power or numbers..sure they get whomped. But BB knows the NW and the yonkou and WB and Shanks well. He has the power of knowledge, stealth and treachery. Being a dirty rotten monster has advantages.

Still for now..WB pirates on top....but soon enough I see the BB on their way to the top.

By the way I hate BB and his personality, but it just makes sense..

 

[tothx]

I hate BB too (especially after beeing introduced to Thatch, without a doubt one of the top5 coolest characters this far imo), and I love shanks. But I still get pissed when people dont see the need for relative strength and puts shanks up there with WB (or even above) just because he's cool! And then grossly underestimate BB because they simply dont like him, even though he is portrayed as the perhaps most powerfull person in the entire one piece universe.

Shanks, he needs to be strong as hell! But he doesnt need to be the strongest or even the secound strongest, in fact he cant be cause that eliminates the need for Luffy to get stronger then him! I personally believe Shanks only has to be so strong that even another Yonkou will have to think twice before concidering to meddle with his affairs! I allso believe the Yonkou to be ruthless bastards crushing many of the newer crews as soon as they enter the new world while protecting others (I think the SH will be under the protection of Shanks and that this will be what keeps him from beeing instantly crushed in the new world, along with the RIDICILOUS powerups everyone is getting of course =P)

At some point, One Piece will need advesaries stronger then even Shanks and his crew! REMEMBER THAT! Luffy will surpass Shanks on his adventures, he's allready told us he's going to build a crew better then shanks crew! And then we will need guys stronger then Shanks! Or more precisely, as strong as Shanks (after all he is on top of the world, up there all the gold medallists have the oppurtinity to compete)

Do you read the Manga, be honest.

Their power levels are transferrable to the power levels in Luffy's crew.

Why were they all were one shotted by Magellan. A Buster call>Magellan. Also a Marines HQ Fleet of 23 BATTLE SHIPS is vastly superior to a ragtag group of men led by DON KREIG. I'll say it again Blackbeard is definately on par with a Yonkou. But his crew cannot match up to crews with of a hundreds of guys with bounties over 80 million. Rockstar had 94 million and was a rookie. A ROOKIE!.

When both Blackbeard and Luffy can be called 10's, then Shiryuu and Zoro will be 9's, Sanji and his opponent 8's and so it goes. This is how the series is buildt up, so if Blackbeard is currently on the level where he can mess with Shanks then he's crew is sure to be on a level where they can challenge Shanks teammates!

Yes, but Shanks and his crew vastly outnumber BB. Let me ask you, can BB and his crew hold a candle to the WG in its entirety. Hell no. Shanks, WB, and all of the Yonkou are threats to the WG, it takes 7 Shichibukai, and Marine HQ to match them. Can you really see WB's crew taking down the Shichibukai, or attacking Marineford, laughable.

Stop talking down Blackbeard, he's beeing buildt up as the most "ultimate" of enemies we have seen to date and may very well be the final enemy in one piece! He's got 35 years on the sea behind him and has allready probably reached the pinnacle of his power.

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BB. THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE POTENCY OF HIS CREW. OK WB HAS 1600 MEN, AND 43 ALLIED PIRATE CREWS
Ace, Marco, Joz, and WB could solo BB's crew. Ok Shanks, and his top two crew members would replicate this feat.

EDIT:
Oh yeah, and as far as Shanks = Kaidou goes, Shanks has allready said he see's himself in Luffy! And lets face it, Luffy has little fear when it comes to going up against a ridicilously strong enemy.

lol Shanks clashed with the undisputed strongest man in the world. Kaidou is Moria-class.

 

[tothx]

:

It's late at night so I cant be arsed looking for the right page. But moria allso said that he got completely owned in the new world.

:

Moria lost his entire crew to Kaidou.. You say they were equals, I say he got owned.

And saying Moria = Kaidou would allmost be the same as saying Luffy = Kaidou, which lets face it, would be a complete joke. Even after he has discovered Haki Luffy is miles away from Yonkou strength.

---

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BB. THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE POTENCY OF HIS CREW. OK WB HAS 1600 MEN, AND 43 ALLIED PIRATE CREWS

Screw the potency! Blackbeard is allready as strong as, or stronger, then Shanks. Beeing able to clash with him before he even got the devils fruit points towards him beeing the stronger of the two.

And one shotted by magellan, again... pfft, they stood there and took it. He was pissed off and didnt hesitate at all to attack them.
Shiryuu = Magellan
Blackbeard = Stronger then Shiryuu
Remember that Luffy was able to fight Magellan for 24 hours nonstop! AFTER having been poisoned. If Luffy is capable of that then Blackbeard should be too, probably able to defeat Magellan within that time too.

And that crew is NOT a young crew! They should all have reached the pinnacle of their power by now (not to say we wont see atleast a little character development, but they are atleast very close to it). These are all old timers capable of remembering when Roger roamed the seas!

---

Ace, Marco, Joz, and WB could solo BB's crew. Ok Shanks, and his top two crew members would replicate this feat.

Ace, Marco, Joz and WB would be the strongest 4 of the strongest crew in the world. Not disputing that WB probably still is the top.

That said, Joz is below Ace.
BB is above both, probably above Marco too. Again with the ALLREADY BEFORE THE DEVILS FRUIT arguement. BB could have taken Ace's spot in WB's crew had he wanted too. BEFORE THE MOST POWERFULL DEVILS FRUIT IN THE WORLD, darling.

WB himself, nobody knows if BB is ready for him yet. Im guessing not, he would have done it allready. Maybe he's about to. But it wouldnt be an easy fight for either.
