The Elbaf arc of One Piece has proven to be absolutely incredible so far, and Oda keeps building on it, making it even better.

As fans know, he's widely considered to be one of the strongest pirates in the world of One Piece.

Zoro vs Mihawk is the most anticipated battle, but it will not be Zoro's hardest fight in One Piece.
At the same time, his crew was said to be absolutely legendary, and it is said that some of the most legendary individuals in the world of One Piece were sailing under his flag, such as Linlin, Kaido, Shiki, Whitebeard, Gloriosa, Captain John, Wang Zhi, and Silver Axe, among many others. Many consider the Rocks Pirates to be the strongest in the One Piece world, but Oda has already revealed a crew even stronger.
The Rocks Pirates Were A Dangerous Pirate Crew
- Rocks Was Stronger Than Even Roger
- His Crew Was Monstrously Powerful
When it comes to the strongest crews in the world of One Piece, it goes without saying that the Rocks Pirates belong in the conversation. In fact, up until recently, the Rocks Pirates were easily the strongest crew in the One Piece world. This was largely down to the manpower they had. They often fought among themselves to showcase their might, sometimes even to the death. Rocks himself only wanted the strongest to sail with him, and fans know very well that his enigmatic couldn't be matched even by the likes of Roger.
They acted like a rogue organization, more than a crew. — Sengoku
The man who went on to become the Pirate King was stated to be weaker than Rocks, and he needed Garp's help to beat Rocks, which says a lot about him. His crew was equally impressive, but Oda has now confirmed a crew that can be said to be even stronger.
The Giant Pirates Were Even Stronger 109 Years Ago
The Giant Pirates Were The Strongest Crew In The World
The race of Giants is widely known to be the strongest in the world of One Piece. Fans have known that for a while, but the current era of the Giants is quite weak in comparison. However, right at the beginning of the Elbaf arc, Shamrock hyped up the strength of the Giants, and Oda himself confirmed in One Piece chapter 1152 that 109 years ago, the crew that everyone feared, so much so that their name was synonymous with terror itself, was the Giant Warrior Pirates.
Centuries ago, the Giants conquered the whole New World. — Shamrock Figarland

SBS volume 112 reveals the rarest race in One Piece, and it isn't what fans expected.
Their might was absolutely legendary, and few could stand up to them. According to Oda, the whole world unanimously considered them to be the most fearsome thing on the seas. This wasn't simply down to them, however. It was also down to King Harald, who, although not a part of the Giant Warrior Pirates, sailed the seas often and wreaked havoc. Harald was an absolute monster.
The Giants Conquered The New World
To put the strength of the Giant Warrior Pirates into perspective, Shamrock stated that long ago in the past, the Giant Warrior Pirates conquered the whole New World. This is a feat unheard of. Right now, the New World is a sea where powerful forces such as the Yonko fight for supremacy. For a crew to conquer the whole sea shows how best their power was.
