She plays a very important role in the Wano arc and even saved the life of Momonosuke and Shinobu. She is extremely powerful, and her powers and techniques match with Kaidou himself. Her signature move, Thunder Bagua, is exactly the same as Kaidou, which can tremble any opponent.

Luffy had to use his whole new form Snake Man which gave him the mastery in observation Haki, to deal with Katakuri’s unexpected attacks.
10. Sanji
Sanji is the most important crewmate of Luffy and perhaps the best cook in the series. Sanji never uses his hands in fighting as he only uses them to make food for his crewmates.

Sanji is also the left hand of Luffy and the abandoned son of Vinsmoke Judge.

Luffy defeated many powerful pirates along the way and currently fighting with Emperor Kaidou for the freedom of Wano-Kuni.
2. Gol D. Roger & Edward Newgate
First, we were thinking of ranking them according to their powers, but their haki level is the same and surpasses every other character. Gol D. Roger and Edward Newgate were fierce opponents yet good friends. Their name was enough to shiver any baddie. When they clashed in Wano in excitement, they proved that their haki level was on the same scale. Edward Newgate and Gol D. Roger were also good friends who used to share their secrets with each other.

Shanks is someone who stopped the great war, and no one dared to fight him from marines as well as from Blackbeard crew. Shanks is undoubtedly the best haki user in One Piece.
