As the Celestial Dragons conducted their Native Hunting Games, the Rocks Pirates invaded the island, as did the Roger Pirates. The Holy Knights were all there to fight the strongest characters, while Garp also joined the battle to stop Roger. In a raging battlefield, a few stood tall far above the others.

Silvers Rayleigh

The Right Wing of the Future Pirate King

Rayleigh had huge stakes in God Valley. He is the powerful right hand of Roger, and he was in God Valley to save Shakky. Rayleigh will definitely be the one to save Shakky, as fans know already, but not before showing his strength. Fans know Rayleigh to be a monster in combat and a great Haki user, so hopefully, they'll get to see some of that soon enough.

Scopper Gaban

The Left Wing of the Future Pirate King

Fans have seen a glimpse of the power of older Scopper Gaban, and he is quite strong. During his younger years, such as in God Valley, he might have been weaker and less proficient with Haki, but he was definitely strong enough to leave a mark on the Holy Knights. Gaban showed off his axemanship in God Valley to such a degree that Sommers started sweating upon seeing him 38 years later.

Monkey D. Garp

The Strongest of the Marines

Monkey D. Garp is the strongest Marine who pulled up on God Valley. God Valley holds special importance for Garp, as this is where he gets his iconic title of Hero of the Marines, thanks to his pivotal role in taking down Rocks D. Xebec. Fans know that he joins forces with Roger and eventually takes on the Rocks Pirates, and it is sure to be an exciting battle for him.

Big Mom

A Future Yonko With Immense Power

Big Mom, also known as Charlotte Linlin, was a powerhouse, even back at God Valley. Linlin was one of the strongest among the Rocks Pirates and might have even fought some great battles there. Linlin was even among the characters who were able to snatch, at the very least, one Devil Fruit.

Whitebeard

The Second Strongest of the Rocks Pirates

Whitebeard had yet to reach his full potential during the God Valley incident, but he was still one of the strongest in the world. At that time, he already had his Gura Gura no Mi as well as his Saijo o Wazamono Naginata, Murakumogiri. Naturally, he wielded destructive power. Whitebeard was definitely the second strongest among the Rocks Pirates, right after Rocks.

Gol D. Roger

The Leader of the Roger Pirates

Undoubtedly, Roger stood out in God Valley the most. Roger headed to God Valley with his crew with one goal, and that was to save Shakky. What exactly happened there is still a mystery, but it was said that Roger, with the help of Garp, was able to take down Rocks. Roger emerged as the new ruler of the seas after the events of God Valley, and that's really intriguing to note.

Garling Figarland

The Leader of the Holy Knights

Garling Figarland was one of the major World Government representatives during the God Valley Incident. At the time, he was the leader of the Holy Knights and in his prime. Garling is very strong and would go on to leave the island being referred to as the Champion of God Valley.

Gunko

The God’s Blade

Gunko is a character who has been finally confirmed to be present in God Valley during the incident. Fans always knew she was powerful, as she acted as Imu’s vessel during Elbaf, but it doesn’t stop there. She’s referred to as God’s Blade in the flashback, which implies she’s Imu’s right hand. She was definitely one of the strongest on that day.

Rocks D. Xebec

The Leader of the Rocks Pirates

Rocks D. Xebec was definitely the strongest person who set foot in God Valley. Rocks was the powerful captain of the Rocks Pirates, the mightiest crew to ever sail the Grand Line.

Rocks went to God Valley with just one goal, and that was to save his wife and son, Teach. Despite falling there, he successfully did what he set out to do. He was so powerful that an alliance between Roger and Garp was needed to fight him, and even then, it is highly likely that Imu eventually took him down.

One Piece's next chapter will be out this week. As usual, One Piece is going to drop on Sunday. In Japan, One Piece drops at 12 AM JST on Monday. Fans can read the chapter for free on Manga Plus.
