One of the biggest secrets unraveled in the Elbaf arc was the God Valley Incident. It was all revealed after Loki's flashback, in which the Accursed Prince talked about Xebec and Harald. Fans expected the flashback to be short, but it turned out to be more fleshed out than most.

Loki's flashback includes some of the most powerful characters in One Piece history. A lot of them were blessed with insane abilities, but not all of them had the same level of skill. With that in mind, here are the strongest characters from Loki's flashback.

This post contains spoilers for One Piece.

Shakuyaku

Captain Of The Kuja Pirates

  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

Shakuyaku was a central figure during the God Valley Incident. She was kidnapped by the World Government and chosen to be the grand prize at the Hunting Competition. However, Shakuyaku was more than just a hostage.

Before hanging up her boots, Shakuyaku was an infamous pirate who led the Kuja in battle. In one encounter, the crew managed to beat the Roger Pirates, and it's safe to say that Shakuyaku played an important role in it. As a member of the Kuja Tribe, she was proficient at using Haki.

Whitebeard

Xebec's Most Loyal Crewmate

  • Devil Fruit: Yes
  • Haki: Yes

During Loki's flashback, Whitebeard was still a part of Xebec's crew. Unlike most of his crewmates, Whitebeard was swayed by riches and power. Even during the God Valley Incident, he sided with Xebec instead of running away like most of the Rocks Pirates.

Whitebeard was in possession of the Gura Gura no Mi when the incident occurred. He used its power on Saturn, which forced Imu out. Whitebeard also clashed with transformed Xebec, but couldn't stop his rampage.

Monkey D. Garp

Hero Of The Marines

  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

Garp was the only Marine who featured heavily in the God Valley Incident. He went to the island after learning that Roger was also present.

Like Roger, Garp too hadn't hit his prime. However, he was still a formidable fighter. Since Garp wasn't a Devil Fruit user, he relied on his fists and Haki to beat his enemies. In God Valley, Garp landed an attack on Imu, who was inside Saturn's body at the time. Garp then teamed up with Roger to bring down Xebec, who had been transformed by Imu.

Gol D. Roger

Captain Of The Roger Pirates

  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

Gol D. Roger was young in Loki's flashback, which is why he is not at the top of the list. However, that doesn't mean he was a weakling. Roger was still a powerful pirate who was respected and feared throughout the world.

Roger wielded Ace, a Saijo O-Wazamono grade sword, and he imbued his attacks with Haki, which allowed him to hurt Xebec. It's worth mentioning that Roger surpassed Xebec after he became the Pirate King, but till then, he was below the latter.

Harald

The Glorious King of Elbaf

  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

The main focus of Loki's flashback was to learn the truth about Harald's death, who ruled as the king of Elbaf. In his younger days, Harald was a loose cannon who would often end up causing destruction. But he changed with time and ended up becoming an amicable person. Harald was renowned for his policies as he used them to make Elbaf better.

As a giant, Harald was physically superior to most characters. Just a swing of his arm could destroy buildings. Even if he didn't have any other abilities, Harald would still be a problem for most individuals, but that's not all. He possessed immensely powerful Haki with which he was able to cancel out Xebec's Haki.

Davy D. Xebec

Captain Of The Rocks Pirates

  • Devil Fruit: No
  • Haki: Yes

Davy D. Xebec was the captain of the Rocks Pirates and the greatest pirate of his era. Xebec was an ambitious man like his ancestor, so he wanted to take over the world. He knew that achieving such a gargantuan task required the help of other powerful fighters, which eventually led him to form the Rocks Pirates. Despite only meeting him a few times, Loki was inspired by Xebec and wanted to be like the pirate.

When it comes to strength, Xebec is arguably the strongest pirate of all time. He was an elite swordsman who combined Haki with his attacks to increase their damage output. Xebec strikes were so devastating that they were compared to cannonballs. In addition to his swordplay, Xebec's physical abilities were on a different level. Given his strength, it's hardly surprising that he was feared by the World Government.

Imu

Ruler Of The World

  • Devil Fruit: Yes
  • Haki: Yes

Imu is easily the strongest character from Loki's flashback. Initially, the ruler of the World Government had no intention of getting involved with the God Valley Incident, but that changed after they saw Xebec and other pirates trying to foil the competition.

Imu took over Saturn's body and began attacking, but their rampage was cut short by a combination of attacks from Xebec, Roger, Garp, and others. Subsequently, Imu used Domi Reversi on Xebec and turned him into a demon. Imu commanded Xebec to kill the members of the Davy clan and anyone else who got in the way. Imu didn't reveal their strength in the flashback, but that's to be expected as they are the main villain of the story.
