One Piece is known for having strong and extraordinary characters. While the strongest heroes and villains in the series are males, there are plenty of strong female characters as well. Ranging from characters who already showcased their powers to the characters whose power remains a mystery, the anime started in the year 1999 granted the times and the target audience the show only had strong male characters. With the change in time, everyone demands more female characters in One Piece, excluding the fact that the over fan servicing is playing a big role here.
However, what we all need isn’t a strong female character. We need a strong character that happens to be a female. That’s all. Although few in numbers, One Piece has some remarkable strong characters that are female. And in this article, we’ll be listing down 10 of the strongest female characters in One Piece. This article does contain some spoilers. Make sure to catch up with anime before you start reading.
10. Jewelry Bonney
Bonney is a unique character and one of the most mysterious female characters in One Piece. She is placed at the end of the list because we still don’t know her full potential. She still hasn’t been in a proper fight in the anime. Bonney has the power of a devil fruit which is currently unnamed. It allows her to alter the age of herself as well as her opponents.
All she needs is a single physical touch, and she can make that person younger or older. She has used her abilities to disguise herself several times. Due to her powers, determining her age is impossible. Her victims don’t forget their memories, but they are left without any physical capability as they are transformed into weak toddlers or elderly people. Either way, there are plenty of unexplored facts about Bonney to determine the true intensity of her strength.

9. Vinsmoke Reiju
Reiju is an underappreciated character who is also known as “Poison Pink.” Unlike other characters, she had to undergo genetic modifications that resulted in her superhuman abilities as she belongs to the Vinsmoke family. She possesses the perfect speed as well as strength that was enhanced further with the help of the advanced technology of Germa 66.
Reiju has sharp intuition. This is proved in the series as she was suspicious of Pudding from the beginning. She has a strong will and durability since she was able to endure Big Mom’s burst of Haki. Her superhuman durability comes from an exoskeleton that protects her from gunfire and other regular weapons. One of her biggest strengths is that she is immune to poison. Her ability allows her to ingest and produce poison. This means that she can absorb all forms of lethal poisons. This ability of hers saved Luffy.
8. Nami
Nami is one of the main female leads in the story, and in the early episodes, she was the weakest member of Strawhats. While she has been sharp-minded from the beginning, all she could do in a battle was hit someone with a wooden staff. So to say, while her navigation skills were superhuman, her physical strength was “LOL”.
However, now due to Usopp’s inventions and her skills as a navigator, she can manipulate the weather around her with her body. She has the power to deceive her opponents with illusions. Additionally, she can create tornadoes and thunderstorms at her will. This was her power before the Whole Cake Island arc. She has been a skilled thief from the very start. All thanks to her abilities, she was able to steal Zeus. Zeus received a Fragment of Big Mom’s soul and served as her personal weapon along with Prometheus and Napoleon. Nami, however, successfully made Zeus her servant by feeding him thunder balls. This became her biggest strength.

Carrot is a mink of the Warrior Beast Tribe. A member of the Inuarashi Squad. She joined Straw hats as an ally during the Whole Cake Island Arc. She continued her journey with Straw hats and is now playing a significant role in the Wano arc. Her appearance is adorable However, this doesn’t mean that she can be underestimated.
Minks are natural-born fighters and possess superhuman speed as well as physical strength. Like all the other minks, she can generate electricity using Electro. As a weapon, Carrot wears two clawed gauntlets that resemble rabbit paws. She received it from Pedro, who believed that she couldn’t handle a sword. But these claws are powerful enough to clash with Zoro’s swords evenly. As a bonus, they can also have an Electro channeled through them.
Her true powers are seen when she takes the Sulong form. Even though she was young, she was able to master this form. This form allows her physical abilities as well as Electro powers to increase on a different level. She gains the ability to even glide long distances at a considerable speed. Her speed made her dispatch several pirates easily, All while evading the attacks from Charlotte Daifuku, one of Big mom’s strongest sons.

5. Nico Robin
Honestly, I wanted to rank Robin above Hancock. But honestly, even though Robin’s devil fruit power is on a high level, her only disadvantage is that she isn’t a Haki user for some reason, which is way too idiotic as she even worked under Dragon. The first one to master and understand the power of Haki amongst the Straw hats should’ve been Robin. Her devil fruit powers are also capable of doing much more than they do in the series.
But even after the half-assed character development for Robin’s character, she has proved to be one of the most powerful characters of One Piece. Not just in terms of physical strength or devil fruit powers but also her intelligence. She uses a Paramecia-type devil fruit called the Hana Hana no Mi. This allows her to sprout any of her body parts on any surface within a given range. She can even use this power to duplicate her body parts on herself.
She gains the ability to maintain full control of her duplicated body parts as they function the same as her original body parts. This also allows her to hear sounds and see-through duplicate ears and eyes. As for now, the number of body parts she can use is unlimited. The only limit to her devil fruit power is that they need to be within a range, proving her to be one of the strongest female characters in one Piece
Her powers are enough for a one on one battle as well as several opponents. Besides direct combat with people, she can also use this power as a shield or to help her allies. She is often seen forming a net that can be used to catch falling people or forming several arms in the shape of wings—making it possible for her to fly for a brief time. Her power is so amazing that she can even create a full-body clone of herself as well.

4. Boa Hancock
Boa Hancock is known as Pirate Empress. She is one of the former warlords and the captain of the Kuja Pirates. As of now, she is known as the Snake Princess of Amazon Lily. She rules over the Kuja tribe along with her two younger Gorgon sisters, who don’t seem to be of much significance. She was the main antagonist of the Amazon Lily Arc but ended up falling for Luffy instead and hence lent a helping hand from thereon. As one of the only female warlords, it explains how powerful she is.
Throughout the anime, Boa Hancock has been the embodiment of the most beautiful character, even though almost all the female characters in One Piece have similar features. However, her overwhelming good looks act to her benefit as they enhance the impact of her Devil Fruit powers. Her abilities allow her to turn specific people into stone. i.e., anyone who takes a glance at her with lust will be petrified. However, anyone who doesn’t have any “dirty thoughts” for her won’t be affected by the devil fruit. They can block the feeling of lust with fear or pain. Or just be blind, Point Fujitora.
Even if one can counter the power of her devil fruit, she is a user of Conquers haki. Her powers were even acknowledged by the Fleet Admiral Sengoku. Her bounty last noted was 80,000,000 berries. This amount will only get higher as, after the disbandment of the Warlord system, the bounty amount of every warlord will be re-evaluated.
3. Ulti
Ulti is one amongst the Tobiroppo and holds great authority over the Beast Pirates. Her bounty as of now is 400,000,000 berries. Despite being young, her combat skills are strong enough that they act as a threat to Luffy himself. Along with Page one, Ulti managed to defeat Nami and Ussop easily.
Currently, she hasn’t received much screen time, but the short time was enough for her to establish her dominance. Even her physical abilities exceed other strong characters of One Piece. Her headbutts can even kill people. In her human form, she was able to overpower Luffy. Her Headbutts are capable of splitting or crushing her opponents. She could’ve defeated Luffy if Yamato hadn’t interfered.
Ulti is a user of Ryu Ryu no Mi, an Ancient Zoan-type devil fruit. It allows her to transform herself into a full or hybrid Pachycephalosaurus at will. After her transformation, she holds even more physical power than before. Even among the Zoan type devil fruit users, she is tougher than most of them. She is a user of Busoshoku Haki as well as Kenbunshoku Haki making her even stronger than other characters.

2. Yamato
Yamato is a relatively new character. She’s the daughter of Kaidou. Yamato developed an intense admiration for Kozuki Oden, deciding to be him after his death. Yamato has proved to be a powerful warrior. She even had a clash against Ace in the past, which makes her on an equal footing with him. In the battle on Onigashima, Yamato rescued Luffy from Ulti, who is, as stated above, a strong character. She has immense physical power, which is on par with Ulti’s transformed state. Besides her strength, she is also extremely fast. Her durability is also worth noting as she emerged back after getting hit from several bazooka blasts and even fought against Kaido himself.
She ate the Inu Inu no Mi devil fruit that gives her the ability to transform into a divine wolf. Since it’s a Zoan type, it boosts her physical strength to a great level. It enables her to even stand a fight against Kaidou, who is one of the emperors of the Sea. Her devil fruit helps heighten her animalistic instincts, providing her with fangs as well as claws that have a great impact on the battle. Yamato is also one of the rarest people in the world who are capable of using all three Hakis.
1. Charlotte Linlin
There are plenty of female characters in One Piece, but no one can compare to Charlotte Linlin, also called Big Mom. She is the strongest female character in One Piece so far. She is one of the four emperors of the sea. Throughout the anime, she has been a character with one of the most immense physical strengths. She was born with her powers as when she was five years old, she was able to kill a huge bear with a single smack and managed to break several bones of a giant while trying to slap a mosquito which was apparently on their back.
As Bege describes, she can easily wreak havoc on towns and single-handedly sink battleships. She has insane durability because of her exceptionally tough skin. Thus there isn’t a single weapon that can pose any harm to her. Additionally, her devil fruit, Soru Soru no Mi, allows her to manipulate as well as interact with human souls. The powers originally belonged to Carmel, but it was transferred to her after Carmel’s death. Along With this, Big mom also possesses all three Hakis making her the strongest female lead of One Piece. However, she might be replaced by Yamato later on.
