Marineford in general is a huge mess when it comes to measure the power levels of the characters. I get that the general idea of that arc is that Luffy is weak in comparison with the average Joe that comes from the New World, but the fights in that arc are chaotic; you can never state that someone is more powerful than some other one because in most cases they are either not taking it seriously or affected by an external something.
On the other hand and on topic. There are many things that we still don't know about the characters. But in general the series tends to point at the Yonkou as the strongest in the One Piece world. So I have to assume that Shanks, Big Mom, Kaido and now Blackbeard are the top tiers. However the position of the Admirals is pretty ambiguous in that regard. We don't know if they can fight like equals or just serve as a power source that combined with others keeps the balance. The only reference we have for this is, again, the Marineford mess. |

Top Female:
Known: Boa Hancock Probable Candidate: Charlotte Linlin (Big Mom) Big mom is a yonko, a group considered to be among the top of the top in terms of strength, however since we've never seen her fight Boa hancock is the next best. Top (Living) Male: Known: Blackbeard Probable Candidate: Kaido My reasoning here is that with his two abilities now very familiar after two years of use, Blackbeard is one of the most dangerous One Piece characters in the current world. He was strong enough to scar shanks with just his shadow ability, and with the quake fruit we can safely say he doubled his strength. Kaido is said to be the strongest beast in the world, I'm assuming he was pretty close to WB (who was so powerfull that at his weakest he could still beat akainu and blackbeard, within the space of a few min). We have yet to see him fight, thought. Bottom line: this is one piece, and while its fun to debate strengths, really anything goes and upsets are common, and type advantages (ie luffy vs enel) can really throw battles as well. btw, speaking of advanatages, id love a fight between bb and fujitora-that'd be killer, although bb would win.

So without any DFs, Blackbeard was still a formidable beast. Shanks knew that he wasn't any ordinary pirate, and that's why he requested Whitebeard to call back Ace because he feared the repercussions that would occur if Ace fought Blackbeard. That incident is what culminated into the war of the best and sparked the darker new age (just as Shanks foresaw).

Blackbeard still has enough mystery shroud attached to him...like all that talk about shanks scar without devil fruit, being no ordinary person according to marco, or living twice long lifespan according to ace, his godlike amount of stamina almost making him immortal...He sure has a lot to explain and these kind of mysterious characters usually end up being very powerful end tier monsters in many shonen mangas.
So my vote goes Blackbeard. My guess is that Luffy will need full support of his crew and his father to beat him in future.

It's Princess Shirahoshi without a doubt. She is Poseidon one of the three ancient weapons. With any and all seakings under her control, she is easily the strongest living character in O.P to date.
If she wanted she could destroy entire islands with that kind of power. |

Hard to say because we like to base strength off of hype. Oh shanks is so strong but what has he shown? So I will give 2 versions one based on hype and status and the other based on feats.
Hype and Status: Male: Dragon - He is the leader of the rev army and called the most dangerous man in the world. He is the biggest threat to the world gov. and yet he roams free which leads me to think they cannot really stop him. I think he would easily be a yonko but his goal are not to rule the see but to fight the wg. Female: Boa Hancock - She has all forms of haki and a brutal df to go with it plus her hand to hand combat is very good so she leaves very little gaps in the awsomeness By Feats: male: Whitebeard - This goes without question the man fought an entire war after being stabbed in the chest I repeat after being stabbed right through in the chest A wound that would drop most people he took before he even started and he was sick. On top he had his insided cooked and lost half his face and so much more we all know and then died on his feet. female: Boa Hancock - Yes again she is just the top female shown so far by feats and hype her performace in the war was awsome By Potential: ( this is people I see with massive potential ) Male: Enel - I know blackbeard has so much power etc but imo enel has the most op df to be shown to date. A logia lightning fruit is just insane if he learned some hand to hand combat skills and mastered all haki he would run the op would imo female: robin - This chick is crazy he she learned arament and observation haki and mastered shigan the finer gun she would be unstobable. She could giant shigan people or make a hundred hands all going shigan crazy on sumones body from all angles and more |

Buuuut you could be right at the same time since usually they save the best for last and kaido seems to be that one. The only yonko who we know his name but never caught so much as a glimpse of him (other then that one quick undetaied picture from the manga). But Your answer makes sense tho so I guess only time will tell biggest problem with the statement is as you say translation. Last edited by Zenex; 2013-12-15 at 14:32. |

OT: Prob Blackbeard. But we have yet to see what he has learned from his fruits in the past 2 years. Although, blackbeard's DF makes other DF's logia not work against him, he is still just as vulnarable to Haki attacks right? |
