One Piece Confirms New Villains Group Stronger Than Yonko

One Piece Chapter 1189 marked its official release on July 26, 2026, in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #35, and this week's chapter completely shifted the power balance of the One Piece world in significant ways. Up until recently, among the massive groups that existed in the world of One Piece, the Yonko were considered by far the strongest. However, One Piece Chapter 1189 officially confirms, once and for all, that the likes of the Holy Knights and the Five Elders can far surpass the Yonko under certain conditions, with the power of the new Omen boost granted by Nerona Imu's Akuma no Mi.
