Summary
- Haki in One Piece requires training to awaken, unlike Devil Fruits, but mastery takes practice and dedication.
- Characters like Kozuki Oden and Shanks showcase the power of Haki through formidable attacks and confrontations.
- Luffy's Bajrang Gun and Emet's release of Joy Boy's Haki demonstrate the immense strength and impact of Haki in battles.
Haki is one of the two main powers in One Piece, the other being Devil Fruits. Unlike the mysterious consumables, Haki cannot be awakened without training. This is true for most cases, but there are certain exceptions where characters have awakened Haki without working hard.
One Piece: Every Character Who Has A Rare Devil Fruit
These One Piece characters possess extraordinary Devil Fruits that give them an edge in combat.
But even if they do awaken Haki, it will not be possible to gain a better grasp of its mechanics without practicing. Many One Piece characters have worked tirelessly to master their Haki, which in turn has helped them become extremely powerful.
7 Kozuki Oden Cuts Kaido
The Samurai Bypasses Kaido's Defense
- Type of Haki used: Armament Haki
Kozuki Oden returned to Wano after completing his journey with the Roger Pirates. Upon his return, he learned that the country had fallen under the dictatorship of Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi. Oden decided not to immediately engage the two, as they promised to leave Wano.
But when Orochi and Kaido crossed the line, Oden was furious, and he went to confront them. Kaido stood in his way, but Oden was ready to go all out. The samurai used his powerful Haki and gave Kaido a massive scar on his torso. This was a huge feat considering the latter had a tough defense. Needless to say, Oden would have obliterated Kaido if the fight dragged on.
6 Big Mom and Kaido's Hakai
A Combined Haki Attack By Two Yonko
- Types of Haki used: Armament Haki
Big Mom and Kaido were the two main antagonists of the Wano Country arc. They formed an alliance to claim the One Piece, but Luffy and several members of the Worst Generation stood in their way. The two sides clashed on the rooftop, and as expected, the Yonko made a strong start.
One Piece: 7 Worst Captains In The Series, Ranked
These One Piece characters were horrible captains who nearly ruined their crews.
The Supernovas were struggling, and it was abundantly clear that they would not win. To make matters worse, Big Mom and Kaido launched a combined attack that was so strong that Roronoa Zoro was heavily injured while trying to block it. Any Supernova would have been knocked out instantly if it had made proper contact with them.
5 Monkey D. Garp's Galaxy Impact
Monkey D. Garp Announced His Arrival In Style
- Types of Haki used: Armament and Conqueror's Haki
For years, One Piece fans have been speculating about Garp's strength. They finally had the chance to witness the Vice Admiral's power in the Egghead arc. Garp traveled to Hachinosu to rescue Koby from the clutches of the Blackbeard Pirates.
He was furious that the pirates had taken his beloved pupil hostage. So, he made sure to show them they had made a huge mistake. Garp leaped in the air and infused his fist with Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki to create an attack called Galaxy Impact. The strike was so potent that it nearly wiped out an entire town.
4 Luffy's Bajrang Gun
Luffy's Strongest Attack So Far
- Types of Haki used: Armament and Conqueror's Haki
Luffy's Bajrang Gun is arguably the strongest attack in One Piece. The move was carried out towards the end of the fight between Luffy and Kaido. Both characters wanted to end the fight with one move. Kaido used his Devil Fruit power to cover himself with flames. This gave his body an even bigger appearance.

The unselfish actions of these One Piece characters will live forever in the memories of fans.
On the other hand, Luffy created a gigantic fist that was imbued with Conqueror's and Armament Haki. Luffy dubbed this move Bajrang Gun, and it was bigger than Onigashima. Unsurprisingly, this attack ensured that Luffy would win the fight.
3 Shanks Beats Kid With One Attack
Shanks Takes Down A Pirate With A Bounty Of 3 Billion Berries
- Types of Haki used: Armament and Conqueror's Haki
Shanks is widely believed to be the strongest character alive in One Piece. Before the Egghead arc, there wasn't much evidence to prove it. But it finally changed when Shanks got involved in a minor skirmish with Eustass Kid outside Elbaf.
There were two noteworthy Haki feats. The first was Shanks using Future Sight, which he utilized to foresee Kid's attack. Subsequently, he used Divine Departure to knock out Eustass Kid and Killer. The attack was so powerful that Kid couldn't even get back up.
2 Roger Sends Oden Flying
Roger Beats The Second Division Commander Of The Whitebeard Pirates
- Types of Haki used: Armament and Conqueror's Haki
Kozuki Oden is arguably the strongest fighter to emerge from Wano. He was the son of Kozuki Sukiyaki; therefore, he was next in line to rule. However, Oden was more interested in exploring the world and got the chance when the Whitebeard Pirates crashed onto the shores of Wano.
Oden traveled with the crew until they came face-to-face with the Roger Pirates. Instead of waiting for the rest of his allies, Oden charged straight towards the Roger Pirates, but nothing could have prepared him for what came next. As Oden got closer, Roger unsheathed his sword, rushed towards the samurai, and used Divine Departure. The sheer impact sent Oden flying several hundred meters, and he didn't even know what had happened. To beat someone of Oden's caliber with a single attack is no joke.
1 Emet Releasing Joy Boy's Haki
Emet Uses Joy Boy's Powerful Haki
- Types of Haki used: Conqueror's Haki
Emet was introduced as the Iron Giant, a robot created by a now extinct civilization. Emet was made for unknown reasons, but the truth will come out sooner rather than later. Emet is powered by a unique source of energy, something Vegapunk was extremely interested in.
Around 200 years ago, Emet even tried attacking Marijoa but ran out of energy. Since then, it has been dormant on Egghead Island, only to awaken after hearing Luffy's heartbeat. Emet proved to be a valuable ally to the Straw Hats in their fight with the Five Elders. When the threat increased, Emet was left with no choice but to use the Haki sealed inside a knot by Joy Boy. As he undid the knot, a powerful burst of Conqueror's Haki was released, which knocked out the Vice Admirals and the regular Marines. Moreover, it sent four of the Five Elders back to Marijoa, leaving Jaygarcia Saturn on Egghead.
