How powerful are the seraphs in One Piece? All Seraphim Ranked
Seraphim are one of the last major inventions that changed the world government system. This is the reason why the Marines abolished the Shichibukai system and declared all previous Shichibukai notorious pirates. They play an important role as antagonists in the Egghead Arc of .
The Seraphim are very powerful and will pose a serious problem for our heroes. Not only that, but they also work under the command of the highest authority present. This is also very disturbing as the highest authority in the world is the Five Elders, all of whom are enemies of the Straw Hats and now the .
With a clash about to begin between our heroes and the Seraphim, let's discuss exactly how powerful the Seraphim are in One Piece. But before that, let's clarify what Seraphim are and how they work.

What are Seraphim in One Piece?
Seraphim are high-tech cyborgs similar to the Pacifista. They are powerful living weapons like the Pacifista, but while all Pacifistas look like Bartholomew Kuma and have the same abilities, each Seraph has a different appearance and abilities. The Seraphim are revolutionary in that they replace the Shichibukai to become one of the three great powers of the world.
Seraphim have the appearance of younger versions of the Shichibukai with lunar features. They are relatively smaller than the Pacifistas as they have a childlike appearance, with dark skin, white hair, red eyes, and black wings like the Lunars. Another characteristic of Seraphim are the star-shaped pupils in their eyes.
So far, we have only encountered four Seraphim: S-Hawk, S-Snake, S-Bear and S-Shark. The Seraphim resemble the younger versions of , Bartholomew Kuma and Jinbei respectively.
Seraphim are created as clones of the old Shichibukai with the help of the Lineage Factor. This makes these cyborgs more modified than any previous models and also capable of possessing lunar traits as well as ordinary human traits. Like Lunars, Seraphim also possess pairs of black wings and the ability to ignite flames.
Seraphim in One Piece is the highest scientific achievement and is not easy to achieve. Besides the technical difficulties, their manufacture is also very expensive, which is why only four Seraphim are produced.
How powerful are the seraphs in One Piece?
As previously mentioned, the Seraphim are currently one of the most powerful forces in the One Piece universe. They are Vegapunk's greatest invention to date and were created to be the "strongest form of humanity".
Crafted by altering their bloodline factors, they possess the agility and endurance of the Moon Tribe as well as their physical traits.
The Seraphim's true power comes from the Green Blood that flows through their systems. Green Blood is a substance that integrates the qualities of a Devil Fruit into an individual's system to grant them the ability of that specific Devil Fruit.
V egapunk explained that Paramecia is the easiest type of Devil Fruit to administer into the Green Blood, and Logia is the most difficult.
Thanks to Green Blood, at least three of the Seraphim have three different Paramecia-type Devil Fruit abilities: Mero Mero no Mi, Nikyu Nikyu no Mi, and Sui Sui no Mi.
These three abilities are extremely dangerous, and combined with the overall strength and offensive power of the Seraphim, these abilities are absolutely deadly.
Another thing about Seraphim is that we operate by order and follow the orders of the person with the highest authority. At the level of this chain of authority, the Gorosei are at the top, with the next ones then Sentomaru.
If Seraphim receive orders from two individuals, they will obey the one with higher authority. This makes them risky players at the current stage of the story.
If another person wishes to give an order to the Seraphim, they must have an "authority chip" to do so. thus ordered the Seraphim.
All One Piece Seraphim Ranked
Although the Seraphim are collectively known as the "strongest form of humanity", there are slight differences in the powers of each Seraphim. This is mainly due to their distinct skills. We also take into account each Seraph's parent body and their position in terms of power level in One Piece.
So, without further ado, let's take a look at all the Seraphim in One Piece ranked according to their power and abilities.
4) S-Shark
Although each Seraph is extremely strong, S-Shark has to be bottom of the four. The S-Shark resembles a young Jinbei and uses Fishman Karate like the real fishman.
In addition to this, S-Shark also possesses the power of Sui Sui no Mi, a Paramecia devil fruit that allows him to swim on land. This Devil Fruit also belongs to Senor Pink.
Although Sui Sui no Mi doesn't have the best offensive advantage, it is quite compatible with the powers of Fishman Karate and S-Shark. Seraphim can also use standard Pacifista powers like beams and the like.
The only reason we placed S-Shark at number 4 is because, although he is very strong, S-Shark shows less potential than his fellow Seraphim. Jinbei, the man the Seraphim are inspired by, is also not quite on par in terms of abilities with some of his fellow ex-Shichibukai.
3) S-Snake
Then there is S-Snake, the Seraph who resembles and shares attributes with the Pirate Empress, Boa Hancock. Like Hancock, S-Snake also possesses the power of the Paramecia devil fruit, Mero Mero no Mi, which allows him to turn anyone who covets her into stone.
This power may be disadvantageous to most, but for Hancock, considered the most beautiful woman in the world, this ability is deadly. Most people cannot resist her appearance and charm and therefore can use this ability.
But while Mera Mera no Mi is deadly in Hancock's hands and S-Snake has already proven its usefulness on CP0 and York agents, this power won't work on everyone.
In fact, due to S-Snake's childish appearance, it is very difficult to imagine how she can use this power on powerful opponents.
has already proven his resistance to Hancock and will obviously resist S-Snake but other people like and Lucci will also be safe from S-Snake's powers. That's why S-Snake is here, at number 3.
2) S-shaped bear
Next comes S-Bear and the only Seraph who looks like the miniature version of the Pacifista. Indeed, S-Bear resembles former Shichibukai and secret revolutionary member, Bartholomew Kuma, whose clones are the Pacifista. Like Kuma, S-Bear also possesses the power of Nikyu Nikyu no Mi.
Nikyu Nikyu no Mi is one of the most versatile Devil Fruits in the series and can create the physical embodiment of abstract things like pain and memories. But not only that, he also has great offensive power, as shown in Thriller Bark and Sabaody Archipelago.
Another thing to note about S-Bear is that unlike the other Seraphim, Vegapunk already possessed vast knowledge of his parent body and its powers since this information was also used to create the Pacifistas. This knowledge gives this Seraph another advantage over his counterparts.
But even with all the previous information and all-around power, there is another Seraph who takes the stage as the strongest Seraph of all.
1) S-Hawk
The top spot on this list belongs to none other than S-Hawk. This Seraph is a clone of the former Shichibukai, who also happens to be the strongest Shichibukai. Not only that, Mihawk is also the strongest in the world and has earned the epithet Hawk's Eyes.
S-Hawk not only inherited Mihawk's appearance, but also his master swordsmanship. He also uses a great sword and can fight on par with someone like Zoro.
But the true power of the Mihawk and S-Hawk is still unknown to us and they may prove to be stronger than we imagine. S-Hawk is full of potential and his power could very easily be greater than Zoro who still hasn't reached Mihawk's level.
It would be very interesting to see how their fight will unfold in the upcoming chapters of One Piece.
Due to the magnitude of his potential, S-Hawk takes the top spot on our list as the strongest Seraph of the four.
Serving as antagonists in recent chapters of One Piece, the Seraphim could very easily turn into useful allies as they work strictly under orders from the chain of authority.
Under Stella's command, they can turn into allies or remain a difficult opponent if Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, one of the Gorosei, orders them to eliminate the Straw Hats and Vegapunks.
