Shanks is by far the most mysterious Yonkou in One Piece. We already know the strengths of Shirohige, Kurohige, Big Mom, Kaido, but Shanks hasn't been shown to fight seriously until now. So far, Shanks has rarely been under the spotlight, but every time he appeared to meet a certain party, or be met by a certain figure, it usually had a huge effect on the seas. Here are the Shanks' most impactful meetings in One Piece!

1. Shanks Meets Luffy

Shanks is Luffy's main motivation to become a pirate, and of course, Shanks' meeting with Luffy had a big impact. Because he saw Shanks, Luffy became even more eager to become a cool pirate to sail the seas, even he did not hesitate to injure himself to show that he’s a man enough.

The big thing that happened from the meeting between Shanks and Luffy was that Luffy decided to sail the seas, and until finally he had a bounty of 1.5 billion Belly and had the potential to become the new Pirate King. 

2. Mihawk Meets Shanks

If Shanks visits, there will be extraordinary and crazy events that will occur, however, what if he has guests?

Mihawk once visited Shanks' place to tell him about Luffy and his bounty. Did anything out of the ordinary happen? Yes! They had a party during the day then Shanks and Mihawk chatted together about their rivalry back in the past. Maybe Shanks is a bad guest, but he's a good host.

For Mihawk and Shanks, this is an ordinary meeting, but for OPLovers, this meeting was quite shocking. The thing is, it is revealed here that Mihawk and Shanks once had a sword clash. But now Mihawk is no longer interested in fighting against Shanks who only has one arm.

This already gives an idea of Shanks' strength, because, before that, Mihawk himself had looked extraordinary in the Baratie. Second, this is the first indication that Shanks has many acquaintances, and even he gets a Shichibukai to party with him!

3. Shanks Meets Shirohige

Shanks once met Shirohige, he wanted to warn Shirohige about Ace who was going to find Kurohige. According to him, Blackbeard was not just anyone, and he had a bad feeling with Ace as well as Kurohige.

Shirohige had high self-esteem, and he also “covered up" Ace and Teach's actions, and was mad at Shanks for "tutoring" him. Tension ensued until finally the two of their weapons collided. The extraordinary thing that happened was, the sky was split in two as a result. Another interesting thing is that each of Shanks' steps on the Moby Dick ship made Whitebeard's crew unconscious due to the effects of Haoshoku Haki.

4. Shanks Meets the Marines at Marineford

The Marineford War is one of the major wars in the history of One Piece. How so? Here, the Marine headquarters was destroyed, a Yonko died, and Kurohige got the Gura Gura no Mi.

In that incident, the war also did not end well, because even though Whitebeard was dead and his men retreated in defeat, the Marines were still wildly killing pirates who were no longer willing to fight, to the point that Koby spoke up about this.

Shanks came here to meet famous figures there. Amazingly, it was only with his presence that the terrible Marineford War could end. How intimidating is Shanks that even Sakazuki didn't want to continue the war when Shanks threatens him?

Interestingly, before coming to Marineford, Shanks had a chance to meet Kaido. At that time, Kaido intended to go to Marineford to kill Shirohige. But somehow Shanks managed to prevent Kaido from getting there.

5. Shanks Meets Gorosei

This one still keeps fans guessing, what will happen and what extraordinary things will come out of Shanks meeting with the Gorosei? In One Piece 907, he met the Gorosei and was able to talk casually as if he had known them for a long time, even though they were enemies. What happened after that? We look forward to it!

But we’re sure that this meeting could have a big impact. Mainly because Shanks wanted to discuss someone with the Gorosei. If Shanks were Gorosei's accomplice, this would be one of the biggest plot twists in One Piece.
