These One Piece characters are powerful, but the same cannot be said about their Haki.

These female characters can give anyone a run for their money and many of them are armed with incredibly overpowered devil fruits. Over the last few arcs, there has been an increase in the number of powerful female characters in One Piece and this has only made the series even more enjoyable.

Updated December 25, 2023, by Suzail Ahmad: The female characters in One Piece are incredibly talented. Many of them are blessed with extraordinary abilities, which set them apart from the females in other anime. As the story enters the Final Saga, there is every chance that these individuals will get an opportunity to show off their true strength. This will help the fans understand where they stand in terms of overall power. With that in mind, here are the strongest females in One Piece.

23 Kalifa

Only Female Member Of CP9

Kalifa attacks Nami

Kalifa was introduced in the Water 7 arc as Iceberg's secretary. At the time, she seemed like an ordinary person, and no one expected her to be a CP9 assassin. When the truth was revealed, the Straw Hats and the people at Galley-La were shocked.

Kalifa trained with CP9 for a long time, which made her much more powerful than regular Marines. She ate the Awa Awa no Mi at Enies Lobby, and it allowed her to produce soap bubbles. These bubbles were strong enough to debilitate Sanji, although he was not fighting back. She is currently a member of CP0, although she is one of the weaker members of the organization.

22 Nami

Has Defeated Many Notable Enemies In The Story

Nami is the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates and one of the original five members who joined the crew in the East Blue Saga. Nami is one of the weaker members of the crew. However, it is important to remember that most of the crew members are freakishly strong.

When it comes to comparing her strength to the female characters in One Piece, Nami is definitely among the most impressive. She does not have Haki, but she makes up for it with her intelligence. Throughout the series, Nami has managed to outfox her opponents and defeat them with the combination of her weapons and trickery. Nami also possesses the Clima-Tact, which is modified by Usopp occasionally. In the Whole Cake Island arc, Nami gained Zeus as an ally, bolstering her overall power.

21 Atlas

Managed To Punch Luffy

Release Date Atlas One Piece 1063

Atlas was one of the six satellites of Dr. Vegapunk, and she embodied the scientist's anger. Due to her size, Atlas' strength is much greater than any normal human.

She is equipped with light-pressure gloves that allow her to hit the holograms on Egghead Island. Her punch was able to hurt Luffy who had a few bruises on his face. Aside from her physical strength, Atlas also has a jetpack that lets her fly through the air.

20 Wanda

Has Access To Sulong

Wanda from One Piece-1

Wanda is a member of the Mink Tribe and one of its best fighters. She made her debut in the Zou arc, but she didn't receive a chance to show off her power until the Wano Country arc, where she fought Perospero along with Carrot.

The existence of the Ancient Weapons is one of the biggest secrets in One Piece, but these individuals are aware of the tools of mass destruction.

As a Mink, Wanda has access to Electro, which is a fairly strong ability. It allows her to fight against powerful opponents without any problems. Wanda can also use the Sulong transformation, which bolsters her physical abilities significantly.

19 Carrot

Destroyed Multiple Ships Of The Big Mom Pirates

Carrot joined the Sanji Retrieval Team on their mission, which took them to Whole Cake Island. Despite being so young, Carrot played a crucial role in the Straw Hats' successful escape from Big Mom's territory. During the arc, Carrot used her Sulong form, which helped her destroy many ships of the Big Mom Pirates.

While her role was limited in Wano, she still proved to be reliable whenever she was needed. Carrot fought Perospero in the arc and would have likely defeated him if it weren't for the limitations of the Sulong transformation.

18 Ginny

Was A Commander In The Revolutionary Army

Ginny one piece revolutionary army

Ginny was introduced in the Egghead arc as a part of Kuma's flashback. She had a tough childhood, but she remained resilient and made it to adulthood. At one point, Ginny joined the Revolutionary Army and became one of the commanders.

To be more specific, she was put in charge of the Eastern forces of the Revolutionary Army. Considering she was selected for such a prestigious position, it is fair to say that Ginny was an impressive fighter. The true extent of her abilities remains unclear, but she could be seen wielding a gun in the past, so she might have been an incredible marksman.

17 Shakky

Traveled With The Rocks Pirates

Shakky One Piece

Shakky may have left the life of a pirate, but many people still remember her time as one. In the past, Shakky was a member of the Rocks Pirates, and she appeared as a part of the crew in the Egghead arc. Shakky was also the Empress of the Kuja tribe and led them in battle.

As the captain of the Kuja Pirates, it is safe to assume that Shakky trained her Haki a lot. She did not get the chance to use it in the story, but it is possible fans will get to see her in action when the flashback of the Rocks Pirates is explored fully.

16 Gloriosa

Part Of The Rocks Pirates

gloriosa strongest female one piece characters

Gloriosa served on the crew of Rocks D. Xebex 38 years prior to the current story. She was also the Empress of Amazon Lily, a title bestowed upon the strongest Kuja. Considering the tribe is renowned for its Haki, Gloriosa must have incredible mastery over her Haki.

The Rocks Pirates were feared for their strength, and their Devil Fruits played a key role in it.

Since she participated in the God Valley incident, it is highly likely that Gloriosa fought against another elite fighter, which is no small feat by any means. She does not have a Devil Fruit of any kind, so she mainly relied on her Haki to defeat her opponents.

Nearly Defeated All The Straw Hats

Perona from One Piece

Perona served as a minor antagonist in the Thriller Bark arc. She possesses the power of the Horo Horo no Mi, which is a paramecia type devil.

There is no defense against this ability except if a person is already depressed then the ghosts won't have any effect. Perona can also create ghosts that explode on her command.

11 Boa Marigold

Put Up An Impressive Showing Against Luffy

Boa Marigold fully transformed

Boa Marigold is the youngest Gorgon sister. She was given the Hebi Hebi no Mi, Model: King Cobra. The devil fruit grants her the ability to transform into a king cobra and its hybrid. She can also spit venom at her opponents, which can prove to be extremely fatal.

Key Reason Behind Doflamingo's Success

Sugar is a member of the Donquixote Pirates. She ate the Hobi Hobi no Mi, a paramecia type devil fruit that has the ability to transform people into toys.
