Speculations New Gorosei ranking method?
- Thread starter Shiroyru
- Start date
--Garling (Most important due to shanks tax)
--Topman (Best feat and name)
--Venus (Zoro's opponent)
--Mars (Looked better than Laturn or worm)
--Peter
--Saturn
I think OG gorosei are ranked on their distance from sun - mercury > Venus > Mars > jupiter > Saturn
They zoan forms were not introduced as DFs though.

Numbering on the Pentagram definitely has some meaning whether it be how they rank strength wise or the order in which they joined the Gorosei or something else.
Regardless, albeit not my favorite Gorosei, Ju Peter being No.1 is interesting no matter how you slice it even more so if it turns out that he’s the oldest.
Currently based off portrayal/abilities/expectations I’d say it’s:
1.) Nasjuro
- Zoro’s opponent so likely to be the strongest or at the very least has to be strongest of the swordsmen under Imu
- Can use Ice, is rapid, can use geppo so can fight aerially. Also personally thought the flexibility he showed against Sanji with partial transformation was impressive. Wields the Shodai which is the same grade as Yoru.
- Made himself useful and went on a solo mission on Egghead
- Clash with current Zoro lowered his stock a bit but I think he was simply a victim of how Oda has chosen to write Zoro post-ts as well as how Oda writes clashes btw sword masters.
2.) Mars
- Potential Sanji opponent so if Nasjuro’s the strongest then he’s most likely No.2
- Most versatile amongst the Gorosei abilities wise. Can use fire & lightening, he’s a flight type so has even more aerial flexibility than Nasujuro.
- CoC user & seems to be pretty proficient at CoO
- Thought Oda handled his encounter with Luffy pretty well. Took the combined powers of Nika, Sanji, Franky & Bonney to send him away from Egghead. Oda could've easily written just Nika to send him flying but he opted for a combined attack instead which I think is noteworthy.
- Made himself useful & went on a solo mission on Egghead
3.) Warcury
- Seems to be the leader of the bunch and is usually placed in the middle
- Can use fire, has OD CoC and his head seems to be even tougher than Kaido
*Issues with him though is that he's clearly not as versatile as the aforementioned two and seems pretty one dimensional/limited combat-wise. Feels like a Big Mom, Jack type to me. So I’m skeptical about him being the strongest. (I.e. See the likes of Kat, King, Marco or even Kaido & how they compare to their peers. There is balance & they stand out abilities wise.)
Also the fact that he’s interacted with Luffy is also a minus for him being the strongest. Luffy rarely interacts or has a direct confrontation with the antagonist’s strongest subordinate. Lastly Dorry & Broggy repelling him & the fact that he never really dominated them will almost certainly turn out to be an anti-feat for him.
4.) Ju Peter
- Feats, Presence & DF are not that imposing or impressive but the fact that he feels like an outlier amongst the bunch might be an indication that he’s special in some way so Oda might be playing with our expectations for him.
5.) Saturn
Weakest by default
???) Garling
- Hard to rank but has top 3 potential given his hype
- Cannot be stronger than Nasujuro if the latter is Zoro’s opponent for obvious reasons.
- Abilities now that he’s been promoted to Gorosei is still up in the air.
