When it comes to One Piece, most people focus on either Luffy or the Straw Hats as a group, while the other characters undoubtedly take a back seat. But the series has many interesting characters, both protagonists and antagonists, and many of them are, of course, women. To honor the great women of One Piece, we've prepared a list of the 20 strongest female One Piece characters to date. The characters will be from different story arcs. You'll learn some basic information about them, from which you can deduce why we've positioned them the way we have on our list.

20. Saint Chali

As a World Noble, Saint Shalri can do whatever she wants without any restrictions on her actions from the World Government. She also has the power to summon an admiral from headquarters if anyone opposes her decisions. She appears to possess weak willpower, as Rayleigh's Haki easily knocked her out at the auction house.

Like the other Celestial Dragons, Shalria was shown with a weapon pointed at Camie, saying she would kill him. Her ability and prowess with said weapon are unknown. She first appears when her slave, Devil Dias, flees to the Archipelago, causing her father to say that her carelessness could ruin his collection of captains.

19. Marguerite

Marguerite is a member of the Kuja tribe living on Amazon Lily and is also the first Kuja to befriend Luffy. Marguerite uses Busoshoku Haki to fire super-powerful arrows, like all Kuja warriors.

18. Tashigi

Tashigi is a high-level swordswoman. After the timeskip, her abilities have increased; she is faster and more agile, and she was able to deflect a cannonball using her katana with precision and ease. She, too, has risen in rank and is capable of fighting against the dangers of the New World. She fought Monet fairly evenly, though she was ultimately defeated, and was unafraid to face a Sea Warrior. She fights with a katana, Shigure. Not much is known about her fighting style, but she uses Ittoryu, although it is nothing special compared to those used by the strongest swordsmen.

17. Tsuru

Tsuru was a direct subordinate of Sengoku; as a Vice Admiral, she had authority over Marines below her own rank. She is also capable, along with four other Vice Admirals, of leading a Buster Call. Even among Vice Admirals, Tsuru is one of the most powerful of her rank despite her age, and is famous for aiding Garp and Sengoku in their pursuit of Gol D. Roger and Edward Newgate.

Tsuru was strong enough to strike fear into Doflamingo before becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, as he was quick to flee during his many activities from the Donquixote Pirates across the Blue North, but he still wanted to attack his battleship off the coast of Minion Island when he learned that the Marines had arrested a boy (whom he mistakenly believed to be Law).

16. Gion / Momousagi

As a Vice Admiral, she commands the Marines' junior enlisted personnel. She is strong enough to be a candidate for the position of Admiral, though she was ultimately not selected for the position. As a Vice Admiral, she is capable of using Haki. Gion wields a meito called Konpira.

15. Vinsmoke Reiju

As the princess of the Germa Kingdom, Reiju wields a degree of political authority in matters concerning the kingdom. She also holds a high rank within the Germa 66, granting her authority over ordinary soldiers and the ability to compel them to sacrifice themselves to protect her. As a member of the Vinsmoke family, Reiju has access to the advanced technology developed by her family, as well as its extravagant wealth.

Due to her genetic enhancements, Reiju possesses superhuman abilities, being able to follow the training assigned to her by her father. Like her siblings (except Sanji), she possesses an exoskeleton that grants her great defensive abilities and endurance.

As a child, she was able to bend the steel bars of Sanji's prison to help him escape. She appears adept at kick-based combat, such as when she kicked her brother Yonji off the ship and into the sea, despite Yonji attempting to fight back.

14. Nefertari Vivi

Vivi is a very good double agent, managing to infiltrate the Baroque Works organization and become a border agent by forming a duo with Mr. 9. She manages to stay there for two years, until her true identity is discovered. , and go unnoticed in Alabasta (the citizens do not recognize her). As a princess, Vivi does not have much combat experience.

However, as she is part of the ninth pair of Baroque Works, she and her partner are ahead of four other pairs in the organization. Vivi can also use Kaloo. On her own, she displays surprising natural agility, often dodging attacks gracefully and almost instinctively, as she appears surprised after they occur.

13. We

As the Straw Hat Pirates' navigator, Nami is responsible for assessing the ship's direction as it heads out to sea. Nami also often acts as the crew's de facto treasurer, managing the crew's money and allocating spending money whenever they arrive in a new location. Besides Sanji, the crew's cook, Nami is the only one on the crew with basic cooking skills.

Nami possesses a strong willpower that can withstand Big Mom's Haoshoku Haki. Nami spent most of her life stealing money from many people, including dangerous pirates, to buy her village back from the Arlong Pirates; these harsh and sometimes brutal experiences gave Nami a very high level of physical abilities. In the Water 7 arc, she displayed exceptional agility and incredible leg strength, being able to leap great distances between the rooftops of Water 7.

12. A lot

Monet has been a powerful fighter ever since Doflamingo ordered her to protect Caesar from the dangers of Punk Hazard. In her battle against the Straw Hat Pirates, she fought alone several times in a row, displaying great stamina, strength, and speed. She managed to immobilize Luffy; later, she attacked Nami, outmatched Tashigi, and fought Zoro. Even though she realized this was not the case, he fought seriously and only defended himself.

As a harpy, she could fly. She knew how to use her feathers as hands, and even though she made such large hands with her wings, she could do tricky things with them. She has been seen wearing glasses for reading and writing, which indicates nearsightedness. She is a very good investigator, as she was able to find information on the Straw Hats in a short time, and then inform Caesar of Law's involvement with Luffy two years ago.

11. Sugar

Sugar consumed the Hobi Hobi no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows her to turn people into toys, as well as erase the victim's memory of other people, as well as the memories of other people who were killed.

It is said that those who eat this fruit stop growing once they acquire its abilities. She is also able to form a contract with her victims to control them, causing them to lose control of their bodies. This ability instantly transforms the victim into a toy, and combined with Sugar's speed, she can transform a group of victims in seconds. She seems to be able to choose what type of toy the target transforms into.

10. Ulti

As a member of Tobiroppo, Ulti is one of the most powerful members of the entire gang. She also wields great authority, taking orders only from the Headliners and Kaidou. Ulti consumed the Ryu Ryu no Mi: Pachycephalosaurus Model, a Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows its user to transform into a Pachycephalosaurus.

Thanks to this fruit and his fighting style, Ulti can perform devastating headbutts. With this fruit, his already enormous physical strength is further increased to the point where he can quickly grab Luffy and immobilize him even if the pirate is immensely strong.

9. Black Mary

Black Maria is one of the most powerful members of the entire gang. She also wields great authority, taking orders only from the Headliners and Kaidou. Due to her rank, Black Maria commands a squad of Gifters, several of whom can transform at will.

Black Maria ate the Kumo Kumo no Mi: Rosamygale Grauvogeli Pattern, a prehistoric Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows her to transform into a carnivorous spider. She possesses various arachnid abilities, such as the ability to walk on walls and ceilings with her spider legs, as well as having venomous spikes at the ends of her spider legs.

8. Catarina Devon

Catarina Devon is one of the most powerful pirates to ever exist. She is one of the four survivors of Blackbeard's battle among the prisoners of Impel Down, who were the most powerful criminals ever imprisoned. She is strong enough to even injure Newgate with her spear, even though Whitebeard was already considerably weakened at the time. She has also been shown to possess great superhuman endurance, sustaining both a blast from Whitebeard's Gura Gura no Mi (though it was not a direct hit) and a blast from Sengoku in his Buddha form, getting up quite easily.

7. Belo Betty

As a member of the Revolutionary Army, Betty holds a high rank within the organization. As commander of the Eastern Army, she has authority over all members of the Army. Betty is an extremely charismatic speaker. With her Devil Fruit powers, she inspires many to fight. Morley called Betty the standard-bearer of freedom because of her abilities.

Betty ate the Kobu Kobu no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows her to rally and encourage others to fight, increasing the morale and physical strength of the one being encouraged. In the Lulusia Kingdom, she managed to make a group of defenseless citizens take up arms and defeat the Pinkbeard Pirates with clubs.

6. Bonney Jewelry

Bonney, for some unexplained reason, seems to be able to consume large amounts of food without it having any adverse effects on her body. No matter how much she ingests, she is somehow able to assimilate the food she eats without her body suffering any consequences. This is likely due to the power of her Devil Fruit, which is said to grant her the benefits of an extended metabolism throughout her life.

5. Charlotte Smoothie

Charlotte Smoothie is Big Mom's fourteenth daughter, the Minister of Juices, and one of the three Sweet Generals. A reward of 932 million berries hangs over her head. She is a very tall woman with wavy white hair and very long legs.

She is lazy and carefree. She behaves with indifference and agrees to help her companions if it doesn't require too much effort. But if the situation demands it, she can demonstrate remarkable strategic sense. She participates in the tea party and, later, in the pursuit of Sunny.

She ate the Paramisha Squeeze Squeeze Fruit, which made her a "Dehydrated Woman": she is able to dehydrate people and inanimate objects by squeezing them as if they were her clothes and throwing her sword at them, and she can use their liquids in various ways.

4. Nico Robin

At the age of 8, Robin was sought after for 79,000,000 Berries due to her ability to read Poneglyphs. Her ability to read Poneglyphs is by far her most dangerous quality to the World Government, who consider her a huge threat because of it. She was considered extremely powerful and is said to have sunk six Buster Call warships.

But this was all a lie fabricated by the government. These ships were actually destroyed by Haguar D. Sauro after he helped Robin escape during the destruction of Ohara. Robin has been a wanted criminal for 22 years and has brought about the demise of numerous criminal organizations until her induction into the Straw Hat Pirates, where she now serves as an archaeologist.

Although primarily a scholar and not a fighter, Robin does not hesitate to resort to violence against her enemies and, according to her, has specialized in assassinations, although she has never been seen committing one. Robin is not afraid to use violence as a solution to a problem or for self-defense and often incapacitates her enemies by breaking their necks or backs (even when they beg for mercy).

3. Yamato

Yamato held a certain authority, as Black Maria called him her "young master." Black Maria also pointed out that bringing Yamato back to Kaidou's fortress would be a difficult task. From a young age, Yamato displayed great strength, having defeated several of Kaidou's subordinates.

Another testament to her strength is being able to take on Portgas D. Ace even though he hadn't yet consumed his Devil Fruit. However, the greatest demonstration of her power is being able to fight her father and cause damage to him. She has been shown to have tremendous physical strength, as she was able to knock out Ulti with a single blow from Ulti's mace while transformed.

2. Boa Hancock

Hancock is considered extremely powerful by her friends and enemies alike. Ruling alongside her sisters, Hancock holds power over Amazon Lily and the rest of the Kuja women. As empress and captain of the tribe, she is arguably the most powerful Kuja warrior. The Kuja believe in "the power of beauty," and since everyone in the tribe believes she is the most beautiful woman in the world, they believe she is very powerful, the strongest in the entire tribe.

It should be noted that only the strongest Kuja warriors are allowed aboard the country's pirate ship; Hancock and her sisters were strong enough to be there when they were little, but it's possible they were simply apprentices like Shanks and Buggy. Her strength is so great that Navy Admiral Sengoku even recognized her.

1. Charlotte Linlin / Big Mom

Charlotte Linlin, better known as Big Mom, is the only female of the Four Emperors, captain of the Big Mom Pirates, as well as matriarch of the Charlotte family and queen of Totto Land. She is a 68-year-old giant woman with a gargantuan appetite and a boundless love of sweets.

When Big Mom asks for a certain candy and doesn't get it, she loses her mind and begins destroying and devouring everything around her, even killing her own children. Despite her cruelty, she cherishes the dream of making Totto Land a place where all races of the world can live without segregation or discrimination.

Big Mom obtained the power of the Paramisha Soul Fruit, which allows her to manipulate souls: thanks to this ability, she is able to remove people's souls just by touching them, completely or partially shortening their lives.
