East Blue was once considered the weakest sea in the One Piece universe. However, with the emergence of some of the strongest and most influential characters in One Piece coming from East Blue, is it still fair to label it as the weakest? Many One Piece fans would disagree. Let’s take a closer look at some of the most powerful characters from East Blue.
1. Monkey D. Luffy
The main character of One Piece who began his adventure in East Blue. Luffy comes from the village of Foosha, which was once used as a stronghold by Akagami Shanks.
2. Roronoa Zoro
Luffy’s right-hand man who dreams of becoming the world’s strongest swordsman. The first confirmation of East Blue being the weakest sea in One Piece was from Mihawk during his duel with Zoro at Baratie restaurant.
3. Usopp
One of the weaker trio in the Straw Hat crew, alongside Nami and Chopper. Despite his lack of self-confidence, Usopp has managed to defeat powerful characters with his silly antics. He has even awakened Observation Haki, which allows him to shoot accurately from a very far distance. As the self-proclaimed vice captain of the crew, Usopp is sure to become stronger.
4. Monkey D. Dragon
The leader of the Revolutionary Army and the most wanted man by the World Government. Luffy’s father remains a mysterious figure.
5. Monkey D. Garp
Luffy’s grandfather and Dragon’s father, his strength is undeniable. Being the Hero of the Navy, Garp is a legendary figure in the One Piece world. He also happens to be the rival of the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger.
6. Buggy
The newest Yonko, alongside Luffy. Buggy even had the audacity to give bounties for the heads of Navy soldiers. He was once the partner of Akagami Shanks when they were under the apprenticeship of the Pirate King, Gol D. Roger.
7. Gol D. Roger
The only character to ever hold the title of Pirate King. Roger, who hails from Logue Town, also has the highest bounty in the One Piece universe.
These characters from East Blue have caused chaos that has changed the world of One Piece. However, Sanji, who is part of the monster quartet in the Straw Hat crew alongside Luffy, Zoro, and Jinbe, is not included in this list. This is because Sanji himself has confirmed that he hails from West Blue and not East Blue.
