7 Characters Sanji Will Surpass In The Final Saga

The Cook of the Straw Hat Pirates, Sanji has always been an incredibly important character in One Piece. He’s also one of the strongest fighters that Luffy has under him, being one of his two Wings. Sanji is exceptionally powerful, and in the New World, he has reached new levels of strength as a pirate. Right now, the strongest character that Sanji has beaten is Queen the Plague, a figure worth 1.320 billion berries. But he still needs to get stronger in the Final Saga and surpass many characters.

Charlotte Katakuri (Observation Haki)

Affiliation: Big Mom Pirates

Devil Fruit: Mochi Mochi no Mi

Devil Fruit Type: Special Paramecia

Haki Types: Color of Observation, Color of Armament, Color of the Supreme King

Charlotte Katakuri is one of the Sweet Commanders of the Big Mom Pirates and a pirate worth 1.057 billion berries. He is an incredibly powerful fighter, and much of that is down to his amazing usage of his Observation Haki. Katakuri is quite a curious case as, in most things, Sanji actually is already stronger than him. The only thing that he excels in over Sanji is his usage of Future Sight. Sanji is an amazing user of Observation Haki; however, he cannot see the future just yet. That is not to say that Sanji cannot see the future at all. In the Final Saga, Sanji will likely have to pick this skill up, and when he does, he will surpass Katakuri in terms of Observation Haki. It must be noted that Sanji is so fast that even if Katakuri can see the future, he can still defeat him already. The only thing that Sanji needs to surpass him in is his Observation Haki.

Sir Crocodile

Affiliation: Cross Guild

Devil Fruit: Suna Suna no Mi

Devil Fruit Type: Logia

Haki Types: Color of Observation, Color of Armament

Sir Crocodile is an infamous pirate as well as a veteran in the New World. Fans all over the world are familiar with him, given that he has played a major role in two sagas already. In the Final Saga, Sir Crocodile is a relevant figure once again. Given that he’s the Number 3 of the Cross Guild, at some point, Sanji might end up coming face to face with him.

Crocodile has a bounty of 1.965 billion berries and, at the same time, he also likely possesses a higher level of strength than Sanji right now. To surpass him in terms of power as well as infamy in the Final Saga is certainly going to be a difficult challenge, but one that Sanji would gladly take on. In order to become a pirate worthy of making Luffy the Pirate King, Sanji will have to overcome many such obstacles, and surpassing Crocodile in the New World is one of them.

Ben Beckman

Affiliation: Red Hair Pirates

Devil Fruit: None

Devil Fruit Type: None

Haki Types: Color of Observation, Color of Armament

The First Mate of the Red Hair Pirates, Ben Beckman is an incredible pirate that fans know to be extremely smart. He is a terrific combatant, whose abilities have been compared to those of the Admirals by Oda himself in his 4 billion volume. Ben Beckman will likely stand in the path of the Straw Hat Pirates once Luffy faces Shanks. It isn’t clear who it is that will face Ben Beckman just yet; however, regardless of who fights him, by the end of the series, Sanji will have to surpass him in terms of power.

The Straw Hats aren’t just going to be any Yonko group. They have to surpass the Red Hair Pirates as well as the Roger Pirates and do the absolutely impossible. This feat requires them to be a level above even those of the Yonko and the former Pirate King’s crew. As such, Sanji will have to surpass Ben Beckman at some point in the Final Saga if he is to do the impossible.

4

Kizaru

Affiliation: Navy

Devil Fruit: Pika Pika no Mi

Devil Fruit Type: Logia

Haki Types: Color of Observation, Color of Armament

Kizaru is an incredibly powerful adversary that Sanji will have to find at some point in the story. He is the user of the Pika Pika no Mi, which is a very powerful Logia Devil Fruit that allows him to turn into light, making him a light human.

Kizaru and Sanji have many similarities, such as fighting with their kicks as well as prioritizing speed in combat. At some point, Sanji will have to fight and surpass him in terms of combat if he is to make an even greater name for himself in the One Piece world.

Five Elders

Affiliation: World Government

Devil Fruit: Unknown

Devil Fruit Type: Unknown

Haki Types: Color of Observation, Color of Armament, Color of the Supreme King

The Five Elders are some of the most powerful characters in the world of One Piece. They possess the power of the Abyssal Covenant from Nerona Imu and hold strength enough to rival the likes of the Yonko. With the power of Omen and with the weapons of the Creators of the One Piece world, the Five Elders even surpass the Yonko in terms of overall strength.

Sanji, the Left Wing of the Pirate King, must surpass the Five Elders if he is to truly make Luffy the King who stands atop all, especially when the War Against the World Government begins. Sanji is set to unlock his Supreme King Haki in Elbaf and, in doing so, make a huge name for himself. There are only a select few characters that Sanji still cannot beat, and the Five Elders are certainly among them.

Dracule Mihawk

Affiliation: Cross Guild

Devil Fruit: None

Devil Fruit Type: None

Haki Types: Color of Observation, Color of Armament

Dracule Mihawk is the world’s strongest swordsman and certainly a character who is stronger than Sanji right now. Mihawk is a Yonko-level individual whose overall level of strength is praised far and wide. By the end of the series, Sanji will have far surpassed Dracule Mihawk, and this should not come as a surprise to anyone.

Sanji is equal to Roronoa Zoro in every way of the word. These two always progress in strength together, and just as Zoro will surpass Mihawk by the end of One Piece, so will Sanji. It shouldn’t be a surprise for the fans to see Sanji way above Emperor level at the end of the series.

Scopper Gaban

Affiliation: Roger Pirates

Devil Fruit: None

Devil Fruit Type: None

Haki Types: Color of Observation, Color of Armament, Color of the Supreme King

The most important character that Sanji must surpass by the end of One Piece is Scopper Gaban. Gaban is also known as the Mountain Eater, and back in his prime, he was comparable to the Pirate King Roger in terms of power and skill. Gaban is an individual who surpassed even the likes of Yonko in his prime, and even when he is old, he is easily capable of dismantling the likes of the Holy Knights as well as clashing with Nerona Imu in battle.

Come the end of One Piece, Sanji will have far surpassed Gaban, given that the Straw Hat Pirates are confirmed to surpass the Roger Pirates. As such, Sanji will become one of the strongest characters in the world of One Piece to have ever lived once the story ends.
