Undoubtedly, Shanks is one of the most intuitive characters in One Piece. Although fans did not know much about how Shanks fights and how he grew in terms of power over the years, the final saga has started to shed more light on this individual. Not only do fans know more about Shanks’s strength, but at the same time, they know a lot more about the potential that he holds and, at the same time, how he grew up with the Roger Pirates. Shanks was known to be the next Pirate King by members of the Roger Pirates, which certainly implies that they were all impressed by how much of a genius he truly was.

How Strong Is Shanks Right Now?




Right now, Shanks can easily be labeled as the strongest individual in the world of One Piece. This is especially true after the fall of Kaido, who was known to be the strongest creature in the world, although, Kaido himself placed Shanks among the elites, such as Rocks, Whitebeard, and even Roger himself. Right now, Shanks is easily the strongest in the world and this is likely due to his Haki being the strongest in the world, as has been indicated by Oda on many occasions. Even though Luffy and Blackbeard are among the strongest as well, with some others being in the mix, too, Shanks is the one who truly shines the most.

With that, fans can easily come to the conclusion that One Piece has 5+ years left, at the very least. Fans can rest assured that One Piece is set to continue for the foreseeable future, but, the series is likely going to end by 2030, which means that while the end isn’t closed, fans should start preparing for it.
