I feel that if you bumped down Kuma for his relation to the revolutionaries then I think that Mihawk should have had points deducted for spending two years to train the right hand of a man who has time and time again proven himself to be a monumental threat to the government, and so by training Zoro he has in turn strengthened the revolution that is Luffy
To be fair he could have easily convinced the world government that he was training up a suitable successor to his position focusing on that bounty hunter portfolio instead
crocodile suffers from being an early villain more than any other character in the series. like, even at the paramount war, the man could hang with his contemporaries like mihawk, and even dared challenge whitebeard. the man we saw post-impel down is hard to be imagined being beaten by even post-gear luffy. but, the facts are as they stand, and crocodile did get beaten by vanilla!rubberman, so D is fine with me. shedding that warlord title made him stronger probably. he is one of those guys i think we all want to see post-time skip.

Going back and watching these vids again is great. It shows how much changes in under 2 years. At the time all this stuff is valid. But now that Croco-boy got confirmed Haki in the sbs joined cross guild with a 1.9B bounty, boa fought Blackbeard and defeated 2 of his commanders, Jinbe getting 1.1B bounty, Law looking even more like a member of SWORD with each chapter he’s in and much more just shows how deep each character’s story goes. Ik not all of this is primarily relevant to the Shichibukai but to be fair none of them were actually good at their “jobs” hence why the Warlords don’t exist anymore. Love this series
I would argue that Gecko Moria, weak as he is; was doing his job in Thriller Bark. He was guardian the Florian Triangle and scaring pirates away with the legends around it, and he kind of did the job (not in a perfect way, but I wouldn't say he was the worst).
Yeah, it's a poorly defined job. Basically strong pirates peppered around the grand line to serve as obstacles to intrepid pirates looking for the One Piece. All they have to do is promise not to look for the One Piece and discourage or prevent pirates from sailing through their turf. Mihawk obviously S teir. The possibility of running into this dude on a tiny boat who can sink an entire fleet without breaking a sweat and then chase the survivors all the way back into one of the blues to finish them off because they interrupted his fucking nap is pretty discouraging. But literally eating every boat that sails into your area and turning every pirate you meet into a subordinate, shadowless zombie thing seems to do the job as well. No clue what Crocs was trying to pull off though. The only pirates he'd gum up with his shenanigans are the Strawhats... and maybe the Whitebeards. I can't imagine a pirate like Alvida taking the time to stick around and help. She's hiding out for a few days and then fucking off entirely from their situation.
@@ANunes06 Crocodile was actually doing a pretty decent job, he had bounty hunters in most of the starting islands which took care of alot of the the weaker pirates. While it doesn’t seem like much, the weaker pirates were probably the ones who actually acted like pirates and pilaged and killed enough innocent people to warrant a bounty
its funny that for being the "weak one", moria still has one of the most impressive strength feats in the series, with only jozu whitebeard and arguably garp being comparable pre-time skip, and only till you get to some of luffy's gear 4 arsenal do you get comparable feats.
Head canon that the World Government agreed to disband the Warlords because they were tired of replacing them after they were defeated by Luffy. Doesn't help that they actively kick out Warlords too weak and one is even a slave. By the time the Warlords were disbanded, there were only four active Warlords, one of which is incredibly weak. It's no wonder the World Government decided to disband them.
I mean if the WG made Ai robots that can rival Yonkos fk they need to waste tax money on hiring Warlords lol its kinda like the farmer thing about replacing humans with machines
Agreed... Either they got taken down by Luffy or allied with him (Law, Jimbei, Boa (in secret), Mihawk (kinda by training Zorro, hence helping the SH), Kuma (helped them escape buster call)). Croc tecnically even falls into both of these categories lol
I think Crocodile is a bit underrated. Sure, he is a bit weak, but after breaking out of Impel Down dude fought half of the world. Like, he fought Mihawk, he fought Doflamingo, and all these powerful warlords, so while he didn't stand a chance, he was cool and I think he isn't that weak. Also, his devil fruit is kind of interesting: it is not only a logia but it has the ability to drain anything, so that's there to.
I just realized something, Dofy never intended to take his revange with his own hands, his goal was to support Kaido as much as he could so Kaido could start a huge war and do all the damage and chaos for him.
I Don't really think that was the case . I know it's an exaggeration but if doffy was alive for anothee 15-20 years he could master advanced conqs haki and probably become an emperor. I mean whoever has conqs haki can become an emperor if u work hard
@@SaifKhan-ub9vf doffy was at his 40's already and his pirate life were very stagnate for 10 whole years. i doubt he trained on planned on any advancement of his own other than living the good king's life at dressrosa while keep supplying kaido with smile DF.
@@MrGalRoz that makes a lot of sense for him to laugh in his jail cell because he can see the world slowly going in to imbalance because of the abolition of the warlords and luffy trying to take kaido down and all this will finally result in the Chaos he wants
I mean, I would very happily spend 3+ years studying Trafalgar Law... :D But I gotta go with Best Warlord Mingo. He made the most out of his role in the dirtiest way possible. And he did it wearing full pink, Regina George could never.
I just remembered 7-Eleven is a popular chain in Japan, and now I wouldn't be surprised if Oda wanted 11 total Warlords specifically for the 7-Eleven joke.
Just a side note: Mihawk is responsible for a post timeskip zoro, and training luffy’s right hand man to be a beast should at least mean no higher than A tier.
Mihawk having bit of a side hustle as Zoro's fencing coach and then setting him back out into the world, isn't him directly working against World Goverment in anyway though and it kinda falls alongside his bottanist and lawyer hobby as an off-duty activity, that is unrelated to his position as a warlord. Like a cop babysitting a kid, who turns into a criminal doesn't automatically make them any worse of a cop. Also there's just no way around the fact, that Mihawk's the most effective warlord for the system's purposes of displaying power. If there's any single warlord, who singlehandedly lends credence to the idea of Shichibukai as third world power alongside Yonkou and Marines, that's him.
He is still knowingly helping one of the more notorious member of the worst generation and thus also indirectly helping Luffy who has been the biggest trouble for the world gowernment. And that is an act agains the WG even if he doesn't do it for that reason.
@@csabagellertjaczina5086 Yes, but it's not an action comparable to any of the ones that caused other shichibukai on this ranking to lose points, cause it doesn't cast his loyalty or intentions into question in any way. His actions were neutral from stand point of his position and allegiance to world government, cause he was under no obligation to kill or capture Zoro and while him training Zoro almost certainly proofs detrimental to World Goverment somewhere down the line, that's not why he did it. Mihawk training Zoro doesn't lessen his effectiveness as a warlord any more than Garp being Dragon's father and Luffy's Grandfather lessens his effectiveness as a Marine.
Agreed. We've seen her handle a Pacifista with no issue (took all of the pre timeskip Straw Hats to take down one) and we know she has Conquerors. It's non-canon but she was also one of the few characters able to damage Bullet's monster form if I remember right. We probably won't see it but I'd love to see her fight Koby
@@crazygamer-mr6nr I'm hoping that they don't even actually fight, and that what's really happening is Koby is secretly on a mission to recruit her and the other Amazons to SWORD.
Buggy actually perfectly illustrates two of the key parts of a great pirate: respect and reputation. Buggy has the respect/love of his subordinates (like Luffy, shanks, white beard, etc), instead of their fear or a sense of mutual benefit. And his reputation got him into roles faster than most. Not to mention, he’s incredibly smart (a gifted chemist and implemented the marine bounty system)
The world government admittedly did make a huge mistake by making blackbeard a warlord, though at the time it probably looked like a pretty good deal, because they got Ace out of it.
In Hancock's defense, we haven't really seen her struggle in a fight, so she could be much stronger than we even realize. Hell for all we know she could be the strongest among them when she's going all out
It would be sick if Mihawk and Hancock are the strongest warlords. Empress of the sea title is quite foreshadowing if Boa is actually yonko level. lmao.
The reason why Mihawk and Weevil are s tier is due to being subscribed to the GrandLineReview, providing them one piece content uploaded straight into his warlordy feed
WG underestimated the usefulness of Gecko Moria. Dude can create a zombie army. He should be in Impel Down removing shadows from the inmates and putting them in new bodies. Not only would he provide extra security because when a inmate escapes they gets vaporized as soon the sun touches their skin, it also would create new zombies that could fight for the WG.
To be completely fair teach was a S tier warlord when he captured Ace. No warlords have beaten a high ranking member of a yonko group. He went from S tier to Simon tier I’m my opinion.
This has probably be said already but just want to show some appreciation for the channel. I’ve really wanted to get into one piece but done have the time to watch all the episodes. These videos has been a massive help.
Mhawk just became my spirit animal with your revelations. Dude is so bored at mastering one thing, he has to turn his attention somewhere else knowing that no one will meet him at that level, but at least it's a mountain to climb. It's a real thing, not saying I'm a genius, or that I am even the best. The world is too vast for that, and knowledge is too deep. I get to the point though where I know anyone would hire me if they witnessed my work. Hospitality, coding, now game design... cause i'm f***ing bored. You end up having passion about mastering a craft, no matter how big or small, then when someone engages with your passions... you end up completely talking over their head by accident. You come off as a know-it-all, and often you just live life misunderstood by many, and not so only by a handful of your treasured friends (Mihawk's rivals are his friends).
Wrong about Moria, he actively captured pirates even if it was for making them into his foot soldiers...he did his job goddamnit...so he should be at least a B
Technically Zoro's first canonical loss then is to Helmeppo/Morgan. It was also a loss that, if Luffy hadn't come along, would have also been his last loss since he would have either starved or been executed.
crocodiles forbidden weakness revealed omfg i had to play it back i couldn’t believe this man on the internet said something so out of pocket also idc if this vid is 2 years old it’s a banger
Crocodile was actually doing a decent job (aside from the whole global domination thing) Baroque Works had multiple bounty hunter villages in the starter islands. While they couldn’t kill stronger pirates, they probably prevented lots of raids and deaths by killing a bunch of the weaker pirates that actually acted like pirates and pillaged islands
I'm ready to see Gecko Moria being underrated as usual, even though he has shown to be a lot like Luffy the last time we saw him... And i was right, Liam tends to forget that Moria was litterally stealing the shadows or corpses of approximately 1000 pirates (which means he either killed them or they were stuck in the Florian Triangle due to a lack of shadows) that tried to get to the new world. Moria is thus one of the WG's most effective newbie-pirate-hunters, who kept a lot of crews from venturing into the new world, where they would most likely have served as reinforcements for Kaido, Big Mom or Blackbeard.
I think we should all agree by now that Alabasta doesn’t count against Crocodile. Man pulled up to Marineford playing single player mode, and now he’s a shadow emperor. His time as a warlord is literally his least interesting time.
Just finished reading the chapter where the Warlord system dissolved today, too. Strangely precise timing. Mihawk is so goddamn cool, man. I like how Oda just refuses to scale him so as to maintain his mystique. Even if he factually cannot do it as a lone man, it's fun to imagine him destroying entire Emperor general armies with no assistance, and it wouldn't be too much of a stretch, either. It'd be like Goku defeating the Red Ribbon army. Also, I still believe that Crocodile's "secret" that Ivankov knows about is a sort of haki dysfunction. It explains why he stayed in the entry level areas of the Grand Line.
None of the warlords actually do their "warlord duties" all of them do shady stuff in the background. They are given full freedom and definitely use it
Doffy was just different.. I firmly believe that in a world without Strawhat Luffy, Doflamingo was easily the closest thing to a yonko. If any of the yonko fell, he would be next in line
If he is the strongest swordsman and was Shank’s rival in the near past, he must be on par with his strength. I think Mihawk isn’t a Yonko cuz he doesn’t have an army and territory
@@Storm-_-rider There is a lot of debate but the general consensus is that Haki doesn't actually work on Buggy as his devil fruit automatically splits him before the sword properly even hits his body. As well as the fact Haki lets them touch a devil fruit user's true body, which doesn't apply to Buggy considering he is in his true body already.
I wouldnt rank weevil that high. I mean, one slave arrow from hancock could already turn him to stone. imagine what could doflamingo do to him, since he has an awakened fruit
“Jinbe is significantly closer to marrying luffy than Hancock is” Not even the deepest depths of the coldest oceans or Aokijis ice will be able to cool down that burn-😂😂😂
I lovethe thought of Jimbe having a hard counter to Hancock because she loves rubberboy too much to hurt his bromance, no matter how jelly it makes her.
9:56 You forgot the fact that he probably cashed the most amount of bounties so he actually did the best job in the War Lords he was never required to fight
Thanks for keeping your near daily content uploads, quickly becoming a required daily escape for 10-20 minutes edit. I take it all back after you put the thought of anyone being furiously zeehaa'd all night long in my head.
I mean, crocodile must smell like crazy since he can't have a shower without fearing for his life edit 4 months later: When I began one piece about 5 months ago with my own terrible pacing and a English dub made me thought for a few weeks I thought Arlong was a warlord of the sea
I feel like you sleep on crocodiles power as Oda said he regrets bringing him into the story so early which is why he was shown to be vastly more powerful at marineford and I would say he has grown since. Also Law I would agree that wasn't just a new rookie pirate as he had a bounty of 440mil when he was added to the warlords which means at the time he had the third highest bounty of the worst generation so he would have no doubt been worthy of a warlord title. Lastly moria I would agree that he was still doing his job acting as a wall for pirates travelling through the Florian triangle and stealing there shadows apart from those three choices I agree with your list
HUHHHHHHH, as you said, part of being a Warlord means actively taking down other pirates. Which the Kuja (that's where they got supplies) and Moria were doing in spades. Buggy literally just used his status to start a business. Also I saw the shade against Hancock's power levels and I'm not about it.
The thing about Hancock is that she basically only beats fodder characters since we see when she tries it on Luffy it doesn't work this is because he has bigger priorities than dating, I also think this same logic would apply to anyone she would consider an actual threat to the Isle Of Women the love fruit would not work on them leaving her to try beat them with only her haki which as we see when Blackbeard wins against her will not always work.
its not about datin, if u are attracted to her, her df works. and she is not weak at all. Aokiji precisely said that she is not to be underestimated and implied she is at least on a superior tier to Doffy. her recent bounty of 1.7 Bill also indicates how much of a threat she is to the WG.
I just want to see Hancock and Mihawk go all out and I need to see Crocodile with haki. I've had this image in my head of black sand that i think would be so cool
moria at least stopped crews from making it to the new world, serving as a similar stop gap for that half of the grand line as crocodile did for the first half
It’s kinda surreal to see how far one piece has come. I remember when I watched one piece like 15 years ago, crocodile seemed like an absolutely insurmountable challenge and now we say that he was so weak 😂
only a noob would say that as early as alabasta, croc was capable of literally changing the landscape with his attacks and still has one one of the better near one-move kills. Just because croc was a glass cannon who was bloodlust in rage in round 3 of his fightwith luffy doesnt make him weak. Croc in impel down and marineford was shown confortably reacting to gear 2 luffy , taking down demon guarrds with ffar less prep than luffy and holding his own agaisnt very high caliber opponents.
@@miguelfonseca1104 i agree. at alabasta, we had no idea about the powers in the world. i remember when Luffy and co ran into aokiji and he was just absolutely on another level. i seriously doubted that Luffy would become pirate king at that moment 😂
9:50 also he had a ton of Impeldown Prisoners under him, preventing them from causing Havoc. 12:10 why? He just refused to work whit Kuma, but he did show up at Marineford, and hunted mainly Pirates for his Zombieisland. And he was at least as strong as Alabasta Crocodile.
@@Dash-lx4ng No im pretty sure we saw Marines getting there Shadows back. But he did his Job. He was just aroggant, and a little outclassed. Also its the Gouvernment, as long as he gets rid of Pirates, some Casualtys aren't much of a Problem. Oh and Weevile destroyed maybe a dozen Villages, and hes pretty high up, so yeah. But you got a Point, he is not going after specific Pirates and did damage the Marines on a smaller Scale, thats absolutely a Downside.
You know it's a good thing Liam started where he did on this list because I actually have a couple of things to say about that. I want to be very clear that I am very well aware why Oda wrote the story this way, but while it makes sense narratively, it doesn't make sense logically that the World Government would hire these seven notorious pirates, all criminals with no doubt horrific records (many of which we know now but the point being that they had to do terrible things to be considered for the job) and just trust them completely without some sort of middle man to check in on them to make sure they're actually doing their job and not up to something that might make the gov't look bad if it got out. Not one, but two (and maybe more, depending how you view Law, Moria and Buggy) were doing just that completely unchecked, and I can't help but feel that there could have been more done to prevent it. If you're a hiring manager at a company in good standing, and you take a chance and hire an ex-convict with multiple arrests for several different charges, do you just let them do their job without supervision? And that's my point. This is what happens when you trust people who make it clear you can't trust them.

its funny that for being the "weak one", moria still has one of the most impressive strength feats in the series, with only jozu whitebeard and arguably garp being comparable pre-time skip, and only till you get to some of luffy's gear 4 arsenal do you get comparable feats.
@@miguelfonseca1104 wait, what feat?
@@oingulonthethird1908 he split thriller barks land in half with one punch in SA form, which is something even Oars coudnt do
Head canon that the World Government agreed to disband the Warlords because they were tired of replacing them after they were defeated by Luffy. Doesn't help that they actively kick out Warlords too weak and one is even a slave. By the time the Warlords were disbanded, there were only four active Warlords, one of which is incredibly weak. It's no wonder the World Government decided to disband them.
I mean if the WG made Ai robots that can rival Yonkos fk they need to waste tax money on hiring Warlords lol its kinda like the farmer thing about replacing humans with machines
Agreed... Either they got taken down by Luffy or allied with him (Law, Jimbei, Boa (in secret), Mihawk (kinda by training Zorro, hence helping the SH), Kuma (helped them escape buster call)). Croc tecnically even falls into both of these categories lol
@@MisaelMatute76 technically Buggy fits both categories as well. Only, he got defeated by and then allied with Luffy before he ever got the position.
@@joyboy6535 ai robots aren't even strong enough to scare warlords
Tbf the WG has no idea that Buggy is weak. To them, he isn't weaker thank Weavil or Mihawk
I think Crocodile is a bit underrated. Sure, he is a bit weak, but after breaking out of Impel Down dude fought half of the world. Like, he fought Mihawk, he fought Doflamingo, and all these powerful warlords, so while he didn't stand a chance, he was cool and I think he isn't that weak. Also, his devil fruit is kind of interesting: it is not only a logia but it has the ability to drain anything, so that's there to.
My favourite fan-theory for weevil is that he is in fact whitebeard's biological son, but bacchin isn't his mother.
I just realized something, Dofy never intended to take his revange with his own hands, his goal was to support Kaido as much as he could so Kaido could start a huge war and do all the damage and chaos for him.
Gasp... I never thought of that! Now his entire goal makes sense!!
I Don't really think that was the case . I know it's an exaggeration but if doffy was alive for anothee 15-20 years he could master advanced conqs haki and probably become an emperor. I mean whoever has conqs haki can become an emperor if u work hard
@@SaifKhan-ub9vf doffy was at his 40's already and his pirate life were very stagnate for 10 whole years. i doubt he trained on planned on any advancement of his own other than living the good king's life at dressrosa while keep supplying kaido with smile DF.
Yeah that is obvious he even told Bellamy that he didnt care about becoming PK all he wanted is to do chaos
@@MrGalRoz that makes a lot of sense for him to laugh in his jail cell because he can see the world slowly going in to imbalance because of the abolition of the warlords and luffy trying to take kaido down and all this will finally result in the Chaos he wants

I mean, I would very happily spend 3+ years studying Trafalgar Law... :D
But I gotta go with Best Warlord Mingo. He made the most out of his role in the dirtiest way possible. And he did it wearing full pink, Regina George could never.
It is impossible to argue with such a choice~
You say that now but when you get to the chapter of weird doflamingo hobbies you'll think back
I just remembered 7-Eleven is a popular chain in Japan, and now I wouldn't be surprised if Oda wanted 11 total Warlords specifically for the 7-Eleven joke.
0:33 Doflamingo being revealed to be behind Kaido after he got smacked was perfect.
The ultimate thiccc guy joke was the funniest .
Just a side note: Mihawk is responsible for a post timeskip zoro, and training luffy’s right hand man to be a beast should at least mean no higher than A tier.
Mihawk having bit of a side hustle as Zoro's fencing coach and then setting him back out into the world, isn't him directly working against World Goverment in anyway though and it kinda falls alongside his bottanist and lawyer hobby as an off-duty activity, that is unrelated to his position as a warlord. Like a cop babysitting a kid, who turns into a criminal doesn't automatically make them any worse of a cop.
Also there's just no way around the fact, that Mihawk's the most effective warlord for the system's purposes of displaying power. If there's any single warlord, who singlehandedly lends credence to the idea of Shichibukai as third world power alongside Yonkou and Marines, that's him.
He is still knowingly helping one of the more notorious member of the worst generation and thus also indirectly helping Luffy who has been the biggest trouble for the world gowernment. And that is an act agains the WG even if he doesn't do it for that reason.
@@csabagellertjaczina5086 Yes, but it's not an action comparable to any of the ones that caused other shichibukai on this ranking to lose points, cause it doesn't cast his loyalty or intentions into question in any way. His actions were neutral from stand point of his position and allegiance to world government, cause he was under no obligation to kill or capture Zoro and while him training Zoro almost certainly proofs detrimental to World Goverment somewhere down the line, that's not why he did it.
Mihawk training Zoro doesn't lessen his effectiveness as a warlord any more than Garp being Dragon's father and Luffy's Grandfather lessens his effectiveness as a Marine.
I mean he never was actively betraying the world government unlike almost all of his contemporarys
I know he wasn't activeley betraying it and that's why I still think he is A tier but not S.
I feel like Boa's fighting prowess is always severely underestimated. I don't think we've even seen her go all out
Agreed. We've seen her handle a Pacifista with no issue (took all of the pre timeskip Straw Hats to take down one) and we know she has Conquerors. It's non-canon but she was also one of the few characters able to damage Bullet's monster form if I remember right. We probably won't see it but I'd love to see her fight Koby
@@IAmNotYourBuddy she should easily beat Koby but knowing Oda…..
@@stephencurry4835 but knowing oda what? Why do you think koby is going to beat boa.
@@waleuska Oda might make her get defeated by Koby getting some random power up, is probably what the person above is trying to say.
@@crazygamer-mr6nr I'm hoping that they don't even actually fight, and that what's really happening is Koby is secretly on a mission to recruit her and the other Amazons to SWORD.
Buggy actually perfectly illustrates two of the key parts of a great pirate: respect and reputation. Buggy has the respect/love of his subordinates (like Luffy, shanks, white beard, etc), instead of their fear or a sense of mutual benefit. And his reputation got him into roles faster than most. Not to mention, he’s incredibly smart (a gifted chemist and implemented the marine bounty system)
The world government admittedly did make a huge mistake by making blackbeard a warlord, though at the time it probably looked like a pretty good deal, because they got Ace out of it.
In Hancock's defense, we haven't really seen her struggle in a fight, so she could be much stronger than we even realize. Hell for all we know she could be the strongest among them when she's going all out
Yeah I wanna see the Empress in her full glory. Some kinda fight or sumthin where we can accurately gauge her strength.
Same. She clearly has impressive physical strength seeing as she was able to one-shot a Pacifista, so she's definitely not one to be underestimated
It would be sick if Mihawk and Hancock are the strongest warlords. Empress of the sea title is quite foreshadowing if Boa is actually yonko level. lmao.
Ut we’re judging her based on what she did not what she’s able to do otherwise Blackbeard won’t be on lowest tier cause he is op
True
The reason why Mihawk and Weevil are s tier is due to being subscribed to the GrandLineReview, providing them one piece content uploaded straight into his warlordy feed
Welcome
Those words have become so iconic...
@@LosHuxleys it became a gimmick
WG underestimated the usefulness of Gecko Moria. Dude can create a zombie army. He should be in Impel Down removing shadows from the inmates and putting them in new bodies. Not only would he provide extra security because when a inmate escapes they gets vaporized as soon the sun touches their skin, it also would create new zombies that could fight for the WG.
For Law being a warlord is like a get out of jail free card
To be completely fair teach was a S tier warlord when he captured Ace. No warlords have beaten a high ranking member of a yonko group. He went from S tier to Simon tier I’m my opinion.
He got the position after capturing ace
@@tariqsmith2326 that’s fair

The level of sass with which you sent kaido flying was fantastic!
He was almost male version of Boa Hancock's extreme looking down position.
That's Emperor Buggy to you, civilian.
Mhawk just became my spirit animal with your revelations.
Dude is so bored at mastering one thing, he has to turn his attention somewhere else knowing that no one will meet him at that level, but at least it's a mountain to climb.
It's a real thing, not saying I'm a genius, or that I am even the best. The world is too vast for that, and knowledge is too deep.
I get to the point though where I know anyone would hire me if they witnessed my work. Hospitality, coding, now game design... cause i'm f***ing bored.
You end up having passion about mastering a craft, no matter how big or small, then when someone engages with your passions... you end up completely talking over their head by accident.
You come off as a know-it-all, and often you just live life misunderstood by many, and not so only by a handful of your treasured friends (Mihawk's rivals are his friends).
Wrong about Moria, he actively captured pirates even if it was for making them into his foot soldiers...he did his job goddamnit...so he should be at least a B
True he never tried to sabotage the WW like the others.
Well not "actively" more like put a spider web a c should service for him
People seem to forget that the first canonical loss of zoro is from buggy
Doesn’t powerscaling then place him above yonko commander?
/s
Technically Zoro's first canonical loss then is to Helmeppo/Morgan. It was also a loss that, if Luffy hadn't come along, would have also been his last loss since he would have either starved or been executed.
The instant regret in his eyes when he slapped the kaido figure....xD priceless.
I kinda expected him to say "I hope it didn't break".
Also nice seeing you here, Slay. Didn't know you were an OP fan.
Crazy that the Simon tier still exists to this day
crocodiles forbidden weakness revealed omfg
i had to play it back i couldn’t believe this man on the internet said something so out of pocket
also idc if this vid is 2 years old it’s a banger
Crocodile was actually doing a decent job (aside from the whole global domination thing) Baroque Works had multiple bounty hunter villages in the starter islands. While they couldn’t kill stronger pirates, they probably prevented lots of raids and deaths by killing a bunch of the weaker pirates that actually acted like pirates and pillaged islands
"All 12 11 7 Warlords of the Sea ranked in order of their sheer Warlordiness."
Might be the greatest sentence I've ever heard.
I'm ready to see Gecko Moria being underrated as usual, even though he has shown to be a lot like Luffy the last time we saw him...
And i was right, Liam tends to forget that Moria was litterally stealing the shadows or corpses of approximately 1000 pirates (which means he either killed them or they were stuck in the Florian Triangle due to a lack of shadows) that tried to get to the new world. Moria is thus one of the WG's most effective newbie-pirate-hunters, who kept a lot of crews from venturing into the new world, where they would most likely have served as reinforcements for Kaido, Big Mom or Blackbeard.
actually, it's 10,000 sir. you got it wrong by idk 10 times?
I like Moria a lot
I think we should all agree by now that Alabasta doesn’t count against Crocodile. Man pulled up to Marineford playing single player mode, and now he’s a shadow emperor. His time as a warlord is literally his least interesting time.
Everyone else commenting paragraphs when I’m still stuck on “the ultimate thicc boi”😂😂😂😂
Just finished reading the chapter where the Warlord system dissolved today, too. Strangely precise timing.
Mihawk is so goddamn cool, man. I like how Oda just refuses to scale him so as to maintain his mystique. Even if he factually cannot do it as a lone man, it's fun to imagine him destroying entire Emperor general armies with no assistance, and it wouldn't be too much of a stretch, either. It'd be like Goku defeating the Red Ribbon army.
Also, I still believe that Crocodile's "secret" that Ivankov knows about is a sort of haki dysfunction. It explains why he stayed in the entry level areas of the Grand Line.
Injecting one piece content straight into people's youtube feeds is indeed an x-men worthy feat.
liam just pushing away kaido is my fav moment in all your vids
None of the warlords actually do their "warlord duties" all of them do shady stuff in the background. They are given full freedom and definitely use it
Him: This one piece themed hat
Me: That Choppers hat you soab
Doflamingo should be S man he is the best One piece villain and he is strong and menacing, in my opinion him and Mihawk are the definition of Warlords
Well.. he wasn’t very Warlordy cuz he was doing everything a Warlord can’t do 😂 But yes, he is the best villain in OP and he A tier in strength
Yeah I’d consider mihawk, doffy, and possibly boa as the strongest warlords. Also kuma
Doffy was just different.. I firmly believe that in a world without Strawhat Luffy, Doflamingo was easily the closest thing to a yonko. If any of the yonko fell, he would be next in line
@@unknownvariable9239 I would agree with you, but I really believe Mihawk is close to Yonko level and Boa, Kuma and Doffy are just commander level
If he is the strongest swordsman and was Shank’s rival in the near past, he must be on par with his strength. I think Mihawk isn’t a Yonko cuz he doesn’t have an army and territory
That jizz comment came out of nowhere. It made me laugh so loudly/suddenly my dogs left the room
so, mihawk definitely deserves S tier, since he's the only warlord to actually do his freakin job.
Sooo buggy needs SSSSSSS+ Tier. He can clap mihawk, shanks, zoro and doflamingo.

@@Storm-_-rider tf is hoki
@@Storm-_-rider sorry bro haki doesn't work on Buggy
@@Storm-_-rider There is a lot of debate but the general consensus is that Haki doesn't actually work on Buggy as his devil fruit automatically splits him before the sword properly even hits his body. As well as the fact Haki lets them touch a devil fruit user's true body, which doesn't apply to Buggy considering he is in his true body already.
I wouldnt rank weevil that high. I mean, one slave arrow from hancock could already turn him to stone. imagine what could doflamingo do to him, since he has an awakened fruit
Crocodile isn’t just a warlord because of his Strength. He is because of his Influence.

Love your content dudeeee helps me look like a professor in front of my homies..!!Lol
9:56 You forgot the fact that he probably cashed the most amount of bounties so he actually did the best job in the War Lords he was never required to fight
Thanks for keeping your near daily content uploads, quickly becoming a required daily escape for 10-20 minutes
edit. I take it all back after you put the thought of anyone being furiously zeehaa'd all night long in my head.
I mean, crocodile must smell like crazy since he can't have a shower without fearing for his life edit 4 months later: When I began one piece about 5 months ago with my own terrible pacing and a English dub made me thought for a few weeks I thought Arlong was a warlord of the sea
Idk what it is about your humor but it gets me everytime😂
Dude... Teach handed over one of the most powerful and wanted pirates in the entire world, what do you mean he didn't do anything to earn the title?
I feel like you sleep on crocodiles power as Oda said he regrets bringing him into the story so early which is why he was shown to be vastly more powerful at marineford and I would say he has grown since.
Also Law I would agree that wasn't just a new rookie pirate as he had a bounty of 440mil when he was added to the warlords which means at the time he had the third highest bounty of the worst generation so he would have no doubt been worthy of a warlord title. Lastly moria I would agree that he was still doing his job acting as a wall for pirates travelling through the Florian triangle and stealing there shadows apart from those three choices I agree with your list
Well he did head to the New World I'm sure there is gonna be some major growth either way.
HUHHHHHHH, as you said, part of being a Warlord means actively taking down other pirates. Which the Kuja (that's where they got supplies) and Moria were doing in spades. Buggy literally just used his status to start a business. Also I saw the shade against Hancock's power levels and I'm not about it.
The fact Buggy didn't get SSS disappoints me. smh
The thing about Hancock is that she basically only beats fodder characters since we see when she tries it on Luffy it doesn't work this is because he has bigger priorities than dating, I also think this same logic would apply to anyone she would consider an actual threat to the Isle Of Women the love fruit would not work on them leaving her to try beat them with only her haki which as we see when Blackbeard wins against her will not always work.
its not about datin, if u are attracted to her, her df works. and she is not weak at all. Aokiji precisely said that she is not to be underestimated and implied she is at least on a superior tier to Doffy. her recent bounty of 1.7 Bill also indicates how much of a threat she is to the WG.
I can imagine people had a fit watching this ranking
Grand Line Review confirmed stronger than Kaido
I just want to see Hancock and Mihawk go all out and I need to see Crocodile with haki. I've had this image in my head of black sand that i think would be so cool
Great video, like always!
moria at least stopped crews from making it to the new world, serving as a similar stop gap for that half of the grand line as crocodile did for the first half
Mihawk heard the saying; The pen is mightier than the sword and he took that personally
Underrated comment 🤣🤣🤣
My favorite warlord will always be Sir Crocodile. The other warlords I like was Weevil and Moria.
Oh my god, I lost my shit when you knocked Kaido out of the way.
Much akin to what Luffy will dish out, I do not doubt.
i almost coughed pepsi all over my laptop at the doflamingo toilet joke 12:50
I do it and i don’t allow you to mock it

I hear that Mihawks baboons have the strength to take down all 4 emperors of the sea with their armament haki alone
What the
It’s kinda surreal to see how far one piece has come. I remember when I watched one piece like 15 years ago, crocodile seemed like an absolutely insurmountable challenge and now we say that he was so weak 😂
only a noob would say that as early as alabasta, croc was capable of literally changing the landscape with his attacks and still has one one of the better near one-move kills.
Just because croc was a glass cannon who was bloodlust in rage in round 3 of his fightwith luffy doesnt make him weak. Croc in impel down and marineford was shown confortably reacting to gear 2 luffy , taking down demon guarrds with ffar less prep than luffy and holding his own agaisnt very high caliber opponents.
@@miguelfonseca1104 i agree. at alabasta, we had no idea about the powers in the world. i remember when Luffy and co ran into aokiji and he was just absolutely on another level. i seriously doubted that Luffy would become pirate king at that moment 😂
9:50 also he had a ton of Impeldown Prisoners under him, preventing them from causing Havoc.
12:10 why? He just refused to work whit Kuma, but he did show up at Marineford, and hunted mainly Pirates for his Zombieisland.
And he was at least as strong as Alabasta Crocodile.
Well not "hunted" more like put a web also I'm pretty sure marines was caught in those 2 if I'm wrong I would like you to tell me
@@Dash-lx4ng No im pretty sure we saw Marines getting there Shadows back.
But he did his Job. He was just aroggant, and a little outclassed.
Also its the Gouvernment, as long as he gets rid of Pirates, some Casualtys aren't much of a Problem.
Oh and Weevile destroyed maybe a dozen Villages, and hes pretty high up, so yeah. But you got a Point, he is not going after specific Pirates and did damage the Marines on a smaller Scale, thats absolutely a Downside.
@@Sunaki1000 alright 😁
You know it's a good thing Liam started where he did on this list because I actually have a couple of things to say about that. I want to be very clear that I am very well aware why Oda wrote the story this way, but while it makes sense narratively, it doesn't make sense logically that the World Government would hire these seven notorious pirates, all criminals with no doubt horrific records (many of which we know now but the point being that they had to do terrible things to be considered for the job) and just trust them completely without some sort of middle man to check in on them to make sure they're actually doing their job and not up to something that might make the gov't look bad if it got out. Not one, but two (and maybe more, depending how you view Law, Moria and Buggy) were doing just that completely unchecked, and I can't help but feel that there could have been more done to prevent it. If you're a hiring manager at a company in good standing, and you take a chance and hire an ex-convict with multiple arrests for several different charges, do you just let them do their job without supervision? And that's my point. This is what happens when you trust people who make it clear you can't trust them.
