Naturally, One Piece fans are currently wondering how strong the Holy Knights are as a whole. It goes without saying that there aren't many who can command as much authority as them, but strength is a different matter. Thankfully, Oda has already revealed the answer to that question.

The Holy Knights were first mentioned in the story after the events of the Reverie, where it was revealed that they were currently dealing with the situation at hand. The Holy Knights were busy dealing with the aftermath of the attack of the Revolutionary Army, and on top of that, making sure the siege they lay on the Holy Land broke as well. Later, Dragon also mentions the Holy Knights, stating that the true war of the Revolutionary Army will begin when the Holy Knights make their move. At the same time, Dragon also confirmed that their top target is going to be none other than Sabo.

In the Elbaf arc, fans got a good look at the Holy Knights when two of them, especially Shamrock Figarland and Gunko popped up. While they both made their presence known immediately after, fans saw Shamrock head back, and in his stead, two Holy Knights, in the form of Sommers and Killingham were invited to Elbaf to takesubjugateen of the Giants hostage and subjugate Elbaf under the World Government forcefully.

Since then, fans have gotten a good glimpse of the power of the Holy Knights. Sommers is quite strong, enough to beat Robin, while Gunko is almost untouchable, strong enough to even take down four Straw Hats, including Jinbe, on her own. The overall strength of the group, however, remains to be seen.

The strength of the Holy Knights is difficult to measure, but Oda has given the fans a good look at how powerful they are. First and foremost, it must be said that not all Holy Knights are the same in terms of power level. For instance, Garling Figarland is the strongest of the lot, and that much is confirmed already. Oda himself hyped up Garling to be incredibly powerful. Then, there is Shamrock, who should be comparable to Shanks, although he could be weaker. But in general, he should be Yonko level. Gunko is strong, but it remains to be seen what her full power level is. At the very least, she is stronger than Yonko Commanders and should be around Admiral level.

The remaining Holy Knights could be weaker, and this makes sense, because otherwise, they would destroy everyone in their paths. As such, one can think of the Holy Knights as a very powerful crew. Garling would be the strongest, with Shamrock being Yonko level as well, and Gunko hovering around there somewhere. Then, the remaining members would be like Yonko Officers. The only caveat is that they all have Immortality, which means that they're stronger than most Yonko crews in One Piece, without a doubt.

One Piece chapter 1149 could also turn some attention to the Straw Hats, who Gaban might be freeing soon. More importantly, Luffy and his group might get some attention as well, especially if Ronja ends up falling and being saved by them in the Underworld. Things are looking more and more chaotic moving forward, and Elbaf is only getting better.
