One Piece: The Worst Generation Captains, Ranked by Power (2024)

In One Piece's Chapter 1058, the Straw Hats finally left Wano Country, after saying their farewell to Momonosuke Yamato, and Kinemon. Meanwhile, it is revealed that Buggy only became an Emperor due to the World Government's misunderstanding, with the true leaders of Cross Guild being Mihawk and Crocodile, bringing the end of Wano Arc to a hilarious and shocking conclusion.

Despite the Worst Generation arriving with a bounty of more than 100,000,000 Berries, not everyone's strength is equal, as there are those whose strength outclasses the other members. Whether it is due to their Devil Fruits, combat experience, or feats, some of them are a lot stronger than others.

Jewelry Bonney

Although Bonney is one of the most powerful female characters in the show, her feats are the least impressive among the Worst Generation. Even though she has escaped from the World Government multiple times, she has not yet fought and defeated a powerful character.

Urouge

Urouge, the Fallen Monk Pirates captain, hails from Sky Island. He was a member of the Worst Generation who made the fewest appearances, hence not much is known about him. He also has the lowest current bounty among the Worst Generation, at a measly 108,000,000 Berries,

Urouge employs an as-yet-unnamed Devil Fruit of the Paramecia type, which grants him the power to convert injury done to him into physical power, causing his muscles to expand and his body to become larger. By fighting Charlotte Snack, a former Sweet Commander of the Big Mom Pirates, he also demonstrated that he is at the very least a capable warrior.

Scratchmen Apoo

The leader of the On Air Pirates and a spy for the Beasts Pirates of the old Emperor Kaido is Scratchmen Apoo. Apoo was the one who set up Kid and Hawkins to be incorporated into the Beast Pirates by feigning an alliance with them in order to destroy Shanks, which resulted in Kid's presence in Wano, which led to the defeat of Big Mom in an indirect manner.

Apoo's abilities are more tricky than powerful. Apoo employs the Paramecia-type Tone-Tone Fruit, which enables him to morph parts of his body into various musical instruments that he may play and afflict on listeners. He can also use Armament and Observation Ha

Capone Bege

He can use his Tarot Cards to forecast the future and a person's fate, which makes him a tricky foe that is challenging to defeat. He can also use both Armament and Observation Haki.

He can also use both Armament and Observation Haki.

Eustass Kidd

One Piece: The Worst Generation Captains, Ranked by Power (7)

Trafalgar D. Water Law

One Piece: The Worst Generation Captains, Ranked by Power (8)

Trafalgar D. Water Law leads as the captain of Heart Pirates. He was the only member in this group to have been a Warlord, which he achieved by offering the hearts of 100 pirates. He consumed the Paramecia-class Op-Op Fruit, referred to as the "Ultimate Devil Fruit". His Devil Fruit is also awakened and he can use both Armament and Observation Haki.

After awakening, Law gained the ability to use unique ROOMs, which, unlike regular ROOMs, do not require Law to be inside the working field to conduct procedures, to add space-altering capabilities to any item. With it, he can perform internal hemorrhages and entirely silence someone. Together with Kid, he has helped defeat Big Mom.

Monkey D. Luffy

One Piece: The Worst Generation Captains, Ranked by Power (9)

Monkey D. Luffy, the protagonist, became a new member of the Four Emperors after defeating Kaido. Luffy uses the Mythical Zoan Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika, which was deemed as the most ridiculous Devil Fruit by the Five Elders and covets it. Luffy also has one of the highest active bounties in the series.

With his awakening, Luffy becomes his most potent form to date, known as Gear 5, which has the ability to alter the environment, including the flesh of living things, and turn it into rubber to fend off attacks. It can even form a fist the size of an island and also catch lightning. He can also use all three types of Haki, including Advanced Conquerors and Observation Haki.

Marshall D. Teach

One Piece: The Worst Generation Captains, Ranked by Power (10)

Marshall D. Teach, a.k.a. Blackbeard, is the leader of the Blackbeard Pirates and one of the most potent ex-Warlords. After building his crew, he was the one to become the Emperor the quickest, accomplishing so in less than two years. He is the first person in recorded history to have successfully wielded two Devil Fruits, something thought to be impossible.

He possesses the unique Logia Type Dark-Dark Fruit, which entirely negates other Devil Fruit properties, in addition to the Paramecia-class Quake-Quake Fruit, which can cause earthquakes and can destroy the planet. He can also use both Armament and Observation Haki, showing that he is not entirely reliant on Devil Fruits. This makes him the strongest member of the Worst Generation.
