One Piece: 10 Anime Characters who can beat Shanks!
Shanks is one of the strongest characters from One Piece, An Emperor of the Seas; but what would he do against some powerful beings from other anime series?
He has respect and authority in the world of Pirates, but that won’t be the same in the anime verse. Some of these characters won’t care about his Yonkos Level, they would stamp on his red hair and take him down.
AMC has made a list of 10 Anime Characters who can beat Shanks, the list has ‘0’ One Piece Characters. Let’s know more about these characters and how they would be able to overpower the Red Haired Shanks in a battle.
10: Saitama
Remember when Saitama fought Boros, an alien being from space that came to destroy earth. That’s when we understood the power of Pushups and Weighted Squats, as this was one of the ways Saitama rose to his power.
Saitama easily destroyed Boros and his Spaceship, we believe Boros was stronger than any level Shanks has ever been.
A Haki fused Pirate and an Overpowered Alien have nothing in common, Saitama has the ability to launch himself by pushing back the Moon. This guy was scared of accidentally destroying the earth. You think he would lose to Shanks? That baldie would chew down his sword, and moonwalk on Shanks Haki.
9: Light Yagami
Yeah we know that just Shanks walking around Light Yagami would end this battle, but imagine if they aren’t in the same place?
This is where Light Yagami wins the battle against Shanks, we all know that Light isn’t someone with Flashy Powers and Superhuman Strength. He is just another Highschooler who found the Book of Hell. The Death Note!
If Light decides to pen down ‘Red Haired Shanks’ in the Death Note, that would be the end for the Pirate.
Shanks would be having a Beer Party with his crew and then collapse with a sudden heart attack.

8: Son Goku
Son Goku is known to be the Strongest Anime Character, someone who can’t be beaten by any other mortal in Anime Verse. It’s a must to have Son Goku on this list, he would have a great time fighting Shanks.
Goku being Goku would ask Shanks for a friendly battle, Shanks would definitely say ‘Yes’ to it. But it’s a given that No Battle is a friendly battle for Goku. He would go all out and put down Shanks in his Super Saiyan form. We feel Shanks Divine Departure would be a problem for Goku, but then Goku would pull out his ultimate trump card the ‘Ultra Instinct’. With this Godly Power Son Goku would end the story of Akagami no Shanks.
7: Koro Sensei
Shanks is a strong pirate with insane speed but Koro Sensei is a being who could beat that. The Weird Octopus looking Koro Sensei has the ability to go over 14000 mph in speed, at this speed shanks wouldn’t be able to see the Sensei.
Koro Sensei is a smart teacher who would teach Shanks a thing or two about battles, there is no way Shanks would be able to land a hit on Koro Sensei. The battle would end with Koro Sensei teaching Shanks on how to use his Haki to increase his speed.
6: Dio Brando
Dio Brando would be the perfect opponent to Shanks, he would be itching to kill Shanks. Dio is one of the most powerful Stand Users in Jojo, his power ‘The World’ turns him into a godly being.
Shanks wouldn’t be able to withstand Dio’s Stand and his Aura, we are talking about his Fashion Sense too. Once Dio uses ‘The World’ the time around him stops and every being stops like the hands of the clock, during this period he can beat down Shanks to a pulp and also pull his pants down. Shanks wouldn’t stand a chance against Dio Brando from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. Dio is the ultimate ‘Big Boys Bully’
5: Sung Jinwoo
Sung Jinwoo from Solo Leveling would be able to take down Shanks easily, if he wasn’t chosen by the System then the battle would be in Shanks favour.
Jinwoo is literally a God level warrior, he has his own Army with the Shadow Monarch, and some other insane powers like Quicksilver, Rulers Authority, and Bloodlust would be enough to handle Shanks Powers. We believe Shanks would lose this battle in a brutal way, as Sung Jinwoo is considered as the Goat of New Gen Anime.

4: Rimuru Tempest
How could Shanks lose to a Slime? Even he would laugh this one off! But don’t get it twisted as Rimuru Tempest isn’t an ordinary Slime from a Kids store. He has the ability to mimic any being he wants, he could transform into Roger if he wanted and give nightmares to the Red Haired!
Rimuru’s powers are straight cheat codes, we believe Shanks Haki won’t work against a being as strong as Rimuru Tempest.
Shanks would have a hard time trying to decipher Rimuru’s powers, whereas the Slime would grab his red hair and push him to defeat.

3: Naruto Baryon Mode
Naruto Uzumaki is one of the Strongest Shinobis of all time, he started as a scrawny little boy who was hated by his own village. Naruto cemented himself as the Hokage and fulfilled his dream, his battle IQ is top notch during intense battles.
Naruto’s Sage Mode Jutsu makes him untouchable, but Shanks would be able to easily slice him down with his Haki fused sword.
If Naruto goes Baryon Mode then Shanks would have a problem, as the Power of Kyubi and Naruto’s Uzumaki genes turns him into a live nuclear bomb. He would easily beat Shanks with Baryon Mode or take him down with a Self Destruction!
2: Madara Uchiha
Madara Uchiha is known as the Ghost of Uchiha, a Clan Member that gave Uchihas a dark history. But we can’t deny his Visual Prowess, the Sharingan and the Rinnegan. Shanks would be taken aback by Madara’s powers, because the Uchiha isn’t someone who holds back for fun.
The way Madara’s character is built, he would definitely hate ‘Pirates’.
Madara’s Susano would be the endgame for Red Haired Shanks’, his Rinnegan would eat up all of Shanks’ attacks. Don’t forget how insanely powerful Madara Uchiha was during his time. If not for our ‘Chosen One’, the Ghost of Uchiha would be our Number 1.
1: Satoru Gojo
This person being born changed the whole trajectory of the Sorcery world, he was born as an overly powered kid with heavenly eyes. Satoru is the heir to Six Eyes of the Gojo Clan, also known as the Funny Sensei with a Blindfold on. Even as a kid Gojo was scaring the hell out of Adult Sorcerers, imagine being on watch since you’re in kindergarten.
Every attack by Shanks would be wasted because of Gojo’s infinity, this barrier would make him invincible against Shanks. Satorus ‘Hollow Purple’ has the power to bring down Red Haired Shanks, the attack would have a huge impact on Shanks physical powers. Once Shanks is trapped in his Domain Expansion (Infinite Void), his brain would fry and he would forget about all the ways to the One Piece.
