It is known that Big Mom is probably the strongest female character in One Piece of all time. The former emperor of the sea was incredibly strong, and only a few could truly match her powers and abilities in the entire franchise. On the other hand, Eustass Kid is one of the most formidable members of the "Worst Generation" and one of the best characters in One Piece. Big Mom and Kid faced off during the Wano Country Arc, and in this article, we will tell you who won.

Individually, Eustass Kid is no stronger than Big Mom. Big Mom was a Yonko, while Eustass Kid, despite all her powers and abilities, was no match for her. However, by combining her powers with Trafalgar D. Water Law, the two were able to defeat Big Mom in Wano Country, ending her tenure as one of the Four Emperors, her place being taken by Buggy the Clown.

The rest of this article will expand on the answer given above, as we will compare Big Mom and Eustass Kid in more detail. Across several categories, you will see who is the stronger of the two and why our answer is the way it is, that is, why Big Mom would, according to our analysis, be able to defeat Eustass Kid in a one-on-one, one-on-one fight, but how she still lost to him in the end.

Physical powers

Kid has demonstrated tremendous strength, being able to carry dozens of gigantic boulders in a very short time, practically on par with Luffy; all this while wearing handcuffs containing sea stone and with only one arm. He was also able to defeat Dobon, a leader of the Beast Pirates, as well as Luffy with great ease, all with the aforementioned drawbacks. He is also strong enough to destroy a ship, with the help of Luffy and Law.

He also possesses tremendous stamina, as he was able to withstand a direct punch from Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, whom he sent flying right afterward with the power of his fruit. He has been shown to be able to gain enormous weight from ingested food and, like Luffy, quickly digest it to return to his normal form. It is unknown if this is due to one of his abilities or if it was just a comedic moment.

Linlin possesses immense physical strength, demonstrated by her ability to scale tall buildings, deliver powerful blows sufficient to destroy a building, and shatter the ground with her feet. She is also capable of throwing her minions with great force using only one arm. When hungry, she produces abnormal amounts of saliva that appears to be far more corrosive than a normal person's.

She managed to break the metal door to her castle's treasure room, which even her daughter Smoothie, a Sweet Commander, couldn't get through simply by walking in. Big Mom possesses tremendous resilience thanks to her extremely tough skin, which Capone Bege compared to an iron ball. She is capable of destroying cities, sinking ships, and withstanding cannons and gunfire without being harmed.

It is said that no weapon can pierce her skin. However, she loses her tenacity when she enters a psychological breakdown, such as when someone drops the photo of Mother Caramel she cherishes.

When Kid faced Big Mom, he was able to withstand a punch from her, which says enough about his powers. Could he actually overpower her? We're not sure, but this feat was enough for us to split the points between the two of them.

Devil Fruit

Kid ate the Jiki Jiki no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit connected to magnetism that gives him the ability to attract and repel metallic objects at high speeds as if his body were a huge, powerful magnet. With this, he can repel bullets and send them back at his shooter or attract all the metal in the area and create enormous limbs, like arms, to strike his enemies or block attacks, like a Pacifista's laser beam.

Additionally, he has excellent physical fitness to withstand the added weight of these metals. In the game Unlimited Cruise, Kid can launch compressed balls of scrap metal at high speeds. The child can also attract himself to metal structures by using his metal arm as a magnet, allowing him to travel by plane.

When using his ability, Kid emits small purple electric sparks from his hands, making his ability similar to an electromagnet. The fruit's main weakness appears to be its dependence on the environment around it, which requires sufficient metal to be able to manipulate it and use it as a weapon. Aside from this, Kid also experiences the general weaknesses of those who have consumed a Devil Fruit.

Linlin is the wielder of Soru Soru no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit that allows her to manipulate the souls of humans according to the user's wishes. She can remove the souls of her victims by capturing them in substantial form, shortening their lifespan, and absorbing them into herself; if she chooses enough of them, she kills the victim.

These can inject a soul into an object to make it alive, or into an animal to make it human. The user can also divide their own soul into fragments that live as incarnations of the fruit-eater. They call themselves Homies and cannot oppose Big Mom. Her fruit is similar to the Kage Kage no Mi, however, she cannot inject her soul into corpses or humans. She can also create incarnations of her soul that are tasked with collecting the souls of the inhabitants.

Individually, Eustass Kid's Devil Fruit powers are no match for Big Mom's Devil Fruit powers. She possesses an extremely powerful Devil Fruit, while Kid can surpass many other characters, but individually, he can do little against Big Mom.

RIGHT

Kid can use all three types of Haki, including one non-canon. Kid can use Kenbunshoku Haki, being able to detect Luffy after activating his awakening. Kid can use Busoshoku Haki, but his level of use is unknown. In One Piece: Stampede, Kid was able to harden two metallic arms he created with Busoshoku Haki. Kaidou revealed that Kid possesses Haoshoku Haki. In the anime, Kid used it to intimidate various members of the Beast Pirates, showing that he can use it consciously.

Linlin is one of the few characters capable of using all three types of Haki. Linlin is capable of using Kenbunshoku Haki, but its level of use is unknown. Linlin can use Busoshoku Haki, displaying immense proficiency. By stiffening his arm, he was able to easily block Luffy's Gear Fourth Gomu Gomu no Kong Gun, something Doflamingo, a highly skilled Busoshoku Haki user, had no chance of defending against. Like Luffy's Gear Fourth, Big Mom's Busoshoku Haki has flame patterns on its tips.

Charlotte Linlin is capable of using Haoshoku Haki, a skill that only one in a million people are capable of using. The first time she was seen using this ability was to knock out a man who questioned her about her relationship with Mother Carmel. Later, after the destruction of Carmel's portrait, Big Mom unleashed a large wave of Haki accompanied by her thunderous shout, knocking out many guests at her party. Linlin can also use the advanced form of Haoshoku Haki, seen infusing her fist to attack Page One.

And even though both Kid and Big Mom can use all three types of Haki, it seems that Big Mom is more proficient in this aspect, which is why we ultimately decided to award her the point. We seriously doubt that Kid would be able to defeat Big Mom with her Haki skills; she is simply too powerful.

Weapons

Around his torso, he carries a pistol and a purple-handled dagger. Although he has drawn the latter several times, he has never used it in combat, so his abilities with it are unknown at this time. At some point during the timeskip, his left arm was replaced with a metallic one, making him a cyborg. The ability this new arm grants him is still unknown, but he is able to combine it with his Devil Fruit abilities.

Big Mom can wield the retractable blade of her Napoleon bicorn hat like a sword in combat. Using it in combination with her monstrous strength allows her to unleash powerful shockwaves that can cause massive destruction.

No one has yet proven capable of withstanding Napoleon's powerful strikes, as even Jinbe has been overwhelmed by the blade despite his best defense. Napoleon can also be caught in Prometheus's flames to increase his attack power. During her altercation with Kaido, she was able to open the sky following the clash between Napoleon and Kaido's kanabo.

Eustass Kid is quite skilled with weapons, but Big Mom has Napoleon, and with that, the discussion immediately ends. Individually, Napoleon is stronger than any weapon Kid has ever used.

Eustass Kid vs. Big Mom: Who Wins?

Individually, as we've concluded, Big Mom is undoubtedly stronger than Eustass Kid. While the pirate is powerful, he's no match for the Empress, and even if she had to work hard to defeat him, she would ultimately emerge victorious. But if you're familiar with the history of your home country, Wano, you'll know that Eustass Kid—cleverly—defeated Big Mom, and before we conclude this article, we'll recap how he did it. Be careful, though, as this section will contain plenty of spoilers for non-manga readers.

Once Big Mom's friends are separated from her, Kid launches his Punk Pistol attack at her, but this attack has no effect on the Yonko, who delivers a straight blow to the face. But Kid resists, smiles at the Yonko while grabbing her arm, and sends Big Mom flying with his Repel; Law then uses his Tact to throw a rock at the Yonko to knock her into the water.

Shortly after, he gets up after Big Mom is saved by Prometheus and decides to go fight her with Killer. He tells the other Supernovae that their goal was to separate the two Emperors, which he believes was done, and he then goes to the edge of the Onigashima Skull Roof where Big Mom fell with a huge pile of metal behind him.

He is then surprised by the strange shape taken by the clouds above the levitating island. When Big Mom returns to fly, Kid wonders how she can fly when Zeus has been captured. He then avoids Big Mom's first attack with Killer but takes a second attack from Fulgora which throws the two Supernovae to the second floor of the fortress, without him recognizing the place.

After noticing that Big Mom doesn't seem to be pursuing them, they encounter Basil Hawkins, who attacks them. The two companions dodge the attack and call Hawkins a traitor. After a short conversation, Killer decides to stay and fight Hawkins while Kid goes after Big Mom. When he arrives, he stops an attack the Yonko intended for Nami, Usopp, and Tama.

Kid then uses his metal arm to slam Big Mom's head into the ground, telling the Straw Hats that it was up to him to defeat her. Law then arrives and despite Kid's reluctance, offers him an alliance against Big Mom. After taking on Big Mom's Mama Raid followed by Ikoku attacks, Kid and Law decide to use their awakened Devil Fruit abilities against the Emperor out of necessity.

As Big Mom throws Kid toward the concert hall, Law places a field called KROOM around his sword and penetrates Big Mom's body with it, allowing him to release a shockwave that injures the Emperor until he bleeds to death. The child then uses his awakened ability to turn Big Mom into a magnet, which pulls much of the fortress's structure toward him and crushes it from all angles.

However, this wasn't enough to finish Big Mom off. Now truly enraged, the Emperor stole the souls of several of Kaido's minions to power his own special Homies and created new ones from the steel beams that had previously crushed her. Recognizing Kid and Law's power, Big Mom sacrificed a year of her own life to grow in size and power while challenging the Worst Generation Pirates in an attempt to bring her down.

Undaunted by Big Mom's new form, Kid declared that he would eliminate the Emperor no matter the cost. Soon after, Big Mom regained the upper hand, defeating them while taunting them about their crew's pleas for their lives. After Big Mom punished their crews for begging her, she began to advance toward the rooftop, considering their fight over.

This, however, would give Law an advantage, as he was not yet defeated and exploited his ascent to the roof, covering Kikoku with K-Room and stabbing her right arm up to her face. He then cast Shock Will on her again, noting that she couldn't have been unharmed by that attack before. Just before he was about to be attacked by his new Steel Buddies, they attached themselves to Kid, who also got back up.

After assimilating both the mates and the surrounding metal, he confidently told Big Mom that nothing was safe from danger before charging Big Mom with Punk Corna Dio, ramming her into a wall. The two then once again assured Big Mom that they would not let her reach the roof, even if they died in the fight. Big Mom, now back in full force, gathers Napoleon, Hera, and Prometheus into a sword covered in flames and lightning and uses it to cut her metal bull, but Kid claims it is useless.

The Empress laughs, declaring that the useless ones will have to give up their respective dreams. Meanwhile, Kid leaps toward Big Mom, assigns her a magnetic pole, and places the one opposite her on a wall: the pirate remains attached to it, and when Kid takes the opportunity to charge her with his metal bull, she turns around to use the wall as a shield.

Kid is stunned, and immediately afterward, the Empress draws a female figure made of flames and lightning from her sword to attack the enemies, Misery. Meanwhile, Law levitates a tower above her and uses it to knock her down, then stabs her in the chest with his sword. Linlin repeatedly strikes him with her Haki-clad fists, but Law doesn't let go of the sword and continues to stretch it further and further; he then unleashes an even more devastating shockwave that severely injures the Empress.

Despite the massive damage, Big Mom unleashes Misery against Law, requiring Kid's intervention: the latter reiterates that he does not want orders and then fires a gigantic electromagnetic cannon, whose powerful energy beam strikes the enemy head-on. While enduring his attack, Big Mom tells her opponents that she will let them choose their fate: give her fifty years of life or become her slaves.

She then begins stealing the life energy of Kaido's men, but this technique does not work on the two Supernovae, who are not afraid of her. She then sees Law enveloping the latter in an R-ROOM, a room that cancels all the sounds she produces, preventing her from using her powers. Kid then curses Big Mom, emphasizing that he never gives up and that he would send her to hell; he then hits her again with his electromagnetic cannon, causing her to sink into the ground. She then falls, accompanied by the bombs from the armory, and hears Kid and Law's subordinates celebrating the defeat of the empress.
