If only he was still alive, it can be said that he could be a Yonkou. His achievements when he was alive has proven his strength that can be said as strong as Yonkou. What are the proofs? Find out here!

1. Oden (20 years old) Defeated all the Bad Guys at Kuri

You have to remember, Oden was not only defeated Ashura Doji and his men, but also other bad guys at Kuri, and he did that alone. It occurred 39 years ago from the current time when Oden was 20 years old. At such a young age, there were a few fighters in Wano who were stronger than him like Hyogoro, the four Daimyos, and Ushimaru from clan Shimotsuki.

Luffy never defeats all the enemy’s crew alone, he still needs Zoro, Sanji, and then the others, but Oden could defeat the entire army alone.

2. Oden (29 years old) vs Shirohige (44 years old)

What’s more interesting, Oden once challenged Shirohige at his prime, when the Strongest Man on Earth was at his 44 years old. Back then, the 29 years old Oden charged at him like a vicious beast, and the clash of Haoshoku Haki occurred. At the same time, Shirohige’s face was so serious and sweaty.

Anyone who can match a Yonkou like Shirohige has the strength like those of Yonkou. Remember with Shanks versus Shirohige at that time? The clash between two Yonkou once tears up the sky, and a similar thing also occurred with Oden versus Shirohige.

3. Oden (33 years old) vs Roger at His Prime (51 years old)

In chapter 965, Oden became the commander of the second division at Shirohige Pirates after joined the crew for two years. Then, in the next two years, Shirohige Pirates encountered Roger Pirates. At that time, Roger attacked Oden until he bled out, but Oden still on his feet.

Not only fighting Roger but Oden also once fought Rayleigh at his prime. Able to survive from the legendary pirate like them for three days surely proofs that Oden’s might was at the same level as a Yonkou.

4. The Strongest Samurai of His Time

When he was in his prime, Oden probably became the strongest character in One Piece and tied to Shirohige (after Roger’s passing). In chapter 969's title called “The man who returned home much stronger - the invincible Kozuki Oden”. This has been proof about Oden’s strength back then was invincible, even to Kaido. According to Wano people at that time, Oden was the strongest samurai ever existed.

5. Oden at Prime vs Kaido

The fight between Oden vs Kaido became one of the shocking battles in the past. The man who is considered the strongest turns out to receive a permanent scar from Kozuki Oden. Kaido at his prime, probably couldn’t match against Oden back then.

Sadly, Oden must face a defeat due to Kaido’s dirty tactic. If the fight went fair, surely Kaido could’ve been defeated by Oden and set Wano country free. If Oden were still alive to this day, probably he could be the Yonkou and replacing Kaido.

So that’s a list of the proofs about Kozuki Oden’s strength was as strong as the Yonkou. If you find this article interesting, share it with your friends. Stay tuned at Dunia Games for more articles. Don't forget to follow us on  Facebook and Instagram.
