The ever-expanding universe of One Piece recently introduced a new character who might just be more formidable than Kaido himself. This revelation has left the fanbase buzzing with curiosity and excitement.
Meet Saint Topman Warcury: A Villain Tougher Than Kaido?
Much to the surprise of One Piece enthusiasts, the dark horse that has emerged as a major threat to the Straw Hat Pirates is none other than Saint Topman Warcury, one of the Five Elders. His impressive performance throughout the Egghead Island arc has certainly made him a character to watch out for.
Reflecting on Kaido’s Impenetrability
The Dragon Zoan Fruit: The Secret of Kaido’s Toughness
The immense toughness of Kaido, the strongest creature in the world of One Piece, is largely attributed to the power of his Mythical Zoan, Uo Uo No Mi, Model: Azure Dragon. This devil fruit grants him the characteristics of a dragon, making his scales almost impenetrable.
Luffy’s Struggle Against Kaido: A Reality Check
During the Wano arc, Luffy had a first-hand experience of Kaido’s durability. Despite his relentless Gear Fourth assault, Kaido remained unscathed, knocking out Luffy with a single blow. This encounter served as a wake-up call for Luffy, who realized the need to enhance his strength to stand a chance against Kaido.
Luffy’s Quest for Power: Learning Internal Destruction Haki
In the subsequent Udon Prison arc, Luffy acknowledges the need to surpass Kaido’s robust defenses. This leads him to master the Internal Destruction Haki, a technique that allows him to infiltrate the bodies of his adversaries with his Haki and cause internal damage.
The Rooftop Showdown: A Glimpse of Kaido’s Vulnerability
During their second face-off on the rooftop of Onigashima, Luffy employs his newly learned Internal Destruction Haki, managing to wound Kaido and draw blood. However, even these injuries were superficial, highlighting Kaido’s extraordinary defenses.

Warcury’s Yokai Transformation: The Ultimate Defense
Saint Topman Warcury’s defense appears to surpass even Kaido’s, making him the most durable character in One Piece so far. His ability to turn into a massive boar, a transformation attributed to his Yokai-based Houki or Fengxi, significantly enhances his resilience.
Warcury’s Encounter With Luffy: A Wake-Up Call?
In the 1112th chapter of One Piece, Luffy, drained of his Gear 5, resorts to a Gear Third Gum Gum Red Roc attack on Warcury, only to injure his own hand. Warcury’s indifference to the attack left the readers in shock, suggesting that he might be even tougher than Kaido.

The Unbeatable Warcury
One Piece chapter 1112th
Warcury’s unyielding defenses, coupled with his high regeneration factor and immortality, make him seemingly invincible. Even the potent Armament Haki of a Yonko appears insufficient to inflict any damage on him. This level of toughness, surpassing even that of Kaido’s, poses a formidable challenge for the Straw Hat Pirates on Egghead Island.
Is Warcury More Powerful Than Kaido?
While Warcury’s durability appears superior to Kaido’s, whether he is stronger than Kaido is still debatable. The Five Elders, including Warcury, are believed to be on par with the Yonko. Warcury’s immortal status, potent Haki, and unconfirmed usage of advanced Conqueror’s Haki potentially make him a stronger adversary than Kaido.
One Piece: A Constantly Evolving Universe
The introduction of a villain tougher than Kaido has added a new dimension to the plot of One Piece. As the series continues to evolve, fans eagerly await the unfolding of the Egghead Island arc and the role of Warcury in shaping the future of the Straw Hat Pirates.
With the continual introduction of formidable characters, One Piece continues to keep its fans on the edge of their seats, making it one of the most beloved anime series worldwide.
