Although not necessary to have as part of a crew, Snipers provide great variety in combat and are some of the most skillful fighters in theOne Piecestory. These characters are some of the best in the anime to utilize this type of fighting style.
Updated on Jun 24, 2025, by Rei Penber:The world of One Piece features quite a lot of incredible fighters with unique fighting styles. Among the Straw Hat Pirates themselves, the crew has an array of combatants who use various ways to fight. While some are brawlers, others fight with swords and some others aresnipers. In the world of One Piece, snipers are quite an underrated fighting class. Oda has introduced quite a lot of thesestrong snipersover the years and this list already mentions the very best of them. However, some others have gone under the radar over the years. To remedy that, this list has now been updated with more powerful One Piece snipers.
16Mr. 5
Mr. 5 was introduced inOne Piecein the Whiskey Peak arc and fans got to see his incredible bomb-based abilities very well early on in the series. Although he can make any part of his body explode, Mr. 5 specifically relied on boogers and he sniped his targets by hurling them towards the opponents.
Upon contact, the target would explode and be injured tremendously, while some others would even die from it. The ability itself was quite powerful, however, Mr. 5 could certainly have used his Devil Fruit in better ways. As a sniper, his skill was certainly decent and he could hold his own against the vast majority of fighters in the early half of the Grand Line.
15Charlotte Flampe
Flampe was introduced to the fans during the Whole Cake Island arc. She was seen joining the battle between Luffy and Katakuri by attempting to aid her brother. Her specialty is the silent needle, using which she can sedate her opponents and cause problems for them.
She was successfully able to hit Luffy with one of her attacks and that is quite impressive, given how fast Luffy is. What’s more, pulling this off while two incredibly powerful fighters were engaging in combat and moving around very fast made her feat doubly impressive. She is quite young so she has a lot of potential to grow as a sniper.
14Hibari
Hibari is a character who was recently introduced inOne Piece.She is a marine lieutenant who has joined SWORD, the secret marine group that is free to do what they like. Hibari uses a rifle in combat and her skill with it is quite impressive.
On the Pirate Island, she worked her magic and certainly contributed to saving Captain Koby. That said, she still has a lot of room to grow. Her potential is very high and she needs to put in more work to reach great heights as a sniper. Nonetheless, what little fans have seen from her so far is surely impressive.
13Braham
Braham is a Shandian who lives on Skypiea. Currently, he serves the role of one of God’s Guard, after the fall of Enel. As a fighter, Brahm is quite proficient and he wields a pair of guns with flash dials that blind the enemy every time he shoots. During this Skypiea arc, he took Zoro on in combat and gave him quite a difficult time.

In fact, Braham even managed to injure Zoro and forced him to try out a flying slash. After the time skip, his skill is likely to have improved even further. It wouldn’t be a surprise if Braham is also a user of Haki now. While his overall strength isn’t all that high, his skill with a gun is certainly immense.
12Rock And Scotch
Rock and Scotch were two giants introduced to the fans in the Punk Hazard arc. Collectively known as the Yeti Cool Brothers, these two fighters were incredibly dangerous for the Straw Hat Pirates to deal with. Although their strength wasn’t anything impressive, the way they conducted their missions was certainly commendable.
They were able to take out the likes of Zoro, Brook, and Sanji, who was in Nami’s body at the time. Their sniping skills were certainly impressive, especially given the fact that they could take downtwo powerful Haki userswithout them so much as sniffing the danger around them.
11Curiel
Curiel is the former 10th Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates. He made his proper appearance during the war of Marineford where he fought the Navy and the Shichibukai. Curiel is an excellent user of guns and bazookas, as seen in the war. At one point, he also clashed with Gecko Moria, one of the Shichibukai, and fared well against him in combat.
After their skirmish was over, Curiel emerged from the battle unharmed. It is unknown whether he is a user of Haki or not, however, it is expected from a Whitebeard Pirates Division Commander to wield this ability. As a sniper, he certainly was one of the very best in the Whitebeard Pirates.
10Wyper
Also known as the Berserker, Wyper is a Shandian and also the strongest of their race in the One Piece world right now. He debuted during the Skypiea arc and showed off his tremendous sniping skills with his Burn Bazooka. Wyper fought Luffy and fared incredibly well against him in combat.
After the two-year timeskip, he’s likely to have gotten even stronger, as suggested by his bigger build. He’s also one of God’s Guards in Skypiea currently. Over the years, his ability has likely improved drastically. More likely than not, Wyper is a user of Haki right now. While fans haven’t seen him in quite a while, in the future, he is likely to make an appearance and show off his skills as a sniper once again.
9Gladius
A member of the Donquixote Pirates, Gladius served the Pica Army and was one of the most fearsome pirates in the crew. With the power of the Pamu Pamu no Mi devil fruit, Gladius could make his own body, along with any inanimate object that he touched, explode.
With his specialized firing mechanism, Gladius could use his Devil Fruit powers to shoot Pamu Pamu bullets at people. His skill in sharpshooting is known to be excellent, as he’s the best sniper of the Donquixote Pirates. He was also the one who taught the usage of firearms to Trafalgar Law, once again suggesting that he was the absolute best at it among the crew.
8Marguerite
Marguerite is one of the very best snipers that fans have seen inOne Piece.Introduced to the fans during the Amazon Lily Arc, she was seen being an adept user of the bow and arrow. Marguerite can sniper targets from great distances and, what’s more, she is an exceptionally good user of Haki as well.
She can store Haki in her arrows and use them to cause great destruction when fired. Before the timeskip she was not a part of the Kuja Pirates, however, she has now joined their ranks, which means she has significantly grown in strength over time. When the Marines invaded Amazon Lily, she fought back against them and did extremely well, which is nothing short of impressive. Her skills as a sniper will grow even further with time.
7Rindo
Rindo is a member of the Kuja Pirates who firstappeared during the Amazon Lily arcand has, since then, made a few appearances. Although the story hasn’t focused on her as much, Rindo is quite an excellent fighter, and like all the other women of the Kuja Pirates, she’s a born warrior.

Rindo specializes in the usage of firearms, and her weapon of choice is a large bazooka. Being a member of the Kuja, Rindo is an excellent user of Haki and can use both Observation and Armament Haki. With these powers, her sniping skills get elevated to the next level.
