One Piece is full of powerful characters. Choosing one from the ocean of solid characters is nearly impossible. But still, the fandom assumes Gol D. Roger to be the strongest since he became king of the pirates. But there are others who could take Gol D. Roger one-on-one. Apart from being robust, there are Devil Fruit powers that can make a person even more powerful.
One Piece showcases many characters who are powerful even without having any Devil Fruit powers. But people often want to know about the characters with mighty Devil Fruit powers, and often wonder whether these mighty characters would still be powerful enough without Devil Fruit’s powers. So, let us look at five powerful One Piece characters who are terrifying even without their Devil Fruit powers.
5. Charlotte Katakuri
Charlotte Katakuri is the second son of Charlotte Linlin and one of the members of the Sweet Commanders. He had an absolute record of zero defeats before facing Monkey D. Luffy. He is one of the few characters who specialises in Observation Haki. He can see into the future for a few seconds. Katakuri also mastered Armament Haki and could use Conqueror’s Haki. He ate Mochi Mochi no Mi. Even if he did not have Devil Fruit powers, his subjugation over Haki quickly earned him a spot on this elite list.
4. Kaido
Kaido is an Emperor of the Sea and the Captain of the Beast Pirates. He consumed the Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu. Besides consuming a powerful Devil fruit that transforms him into a dragon, Kaido was born powerful. Even before getting Devil Fruit powers, he was feared by the Marines and other pirates. His skin is rock solid and requires the highest level of advanced Conqueror’s Haki to hurt him.
His physical prowess, durability, and agility make him one of the show’s strongest characters. Kaido had been captured by the Marines several times, yet they could never execute him. Kaido’s mastery over advanced Armament and Conqueror’s Haki make him nearly invincible.
3. Big Mom
Charlotte Linlin, a.k.a. Big Mom, is an Emperor of the Sea and the Captain of the Big Mom Pirates. She ate the Soru Soru no Mi, which gives her the power to control, extract, and add soul to different things. Being an Emperor of the Sea, she is an advanced Haki user. Big Mom’s skin is tough as steel. Even Brook could not pierce it with his sword. It shows how mighty Big Mom is.
Big Mom only uses her Devil Fruit powers to give life to her beloved from her enemies. Other than that, she entirely relies on Haki. The One Piece fandom believes she is terrifying even without her Devil Fruit powers.

2. Sengoku
Sengoku, the Buddha, is the former Fleet Admiral of the Marines. He is one of the show’s strongest characters, with immense power. His feats are pretty admirable. He fought with Shiki, Gol D. Roger, and Whitebeard and was present during the God Valley incident. Sengoku was a vital part of the Paramount War, too. He ate the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Daibutsu.
Being a former Fleet Admiral, Sengoku is a master of Armament Haki user. He could quickly decimate enemies without the need for Devil Fruit powers.
1. Whitebeard
Edward Newgate, a.k.a. Whitebeard, is the former Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates. He was considered to be the strongest man on the planet. His Gura Gura no Mi could destroy any land within seconds. But that does not mean he only depended on his Devil Fruit powers. Whitebeard is one of the handful of people who have absolute control over their Haki. Be is Observation Haki, Armament Haki, or Conqueror’s Haki; Whitebeard was a master in all of them. Even if he never consumed his Devil Fruit, he could have become an Emperor of the Sea in One Piece.
