Hello Nakama!
At the end of the Wano arc, there have been major power shifts in the Marines and MAJOR changes in the Yonko hierarchy. With the Straw Hat pirates led by Luffy as well as the Heart Pirates and Kidd Pirates led by Law and Kidd respectively making history in the land of Wano, they each go their separate ways to resume their journey! The interactions between them always crack me up!
But it’s not all jokes and games with the three of them, in the end, only one of them will have to become Pirate King. Today, we’ll be looking at a 2v1 match : Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd ?
With my passion for this series burning bright for the past 15 years, I’m honored to share my two cents regarding One Piece info and I do hope you’ll enjoy the article!
Luffy Vs Law and Kidd
There are two things that these three captains have in common. One is the fact that they are part of the group known as the “Worst Generation”, a group dubbed by the World Government to describe the eleven “Supernovas” or Super Rookies who made appearances immediately at Sabaody Archipelago with bounties of over 100,000,000 berries just before the Summit War at Marineford and have made lasting impacts in the world of One Piece after the end of the Golden Age of Piracy and the start of the New Age. The other thing is that all three of them want to become Pirate King.
After the events of Wano, the three pirates end their alliance and go their separate ways. I have a feeling they’ll meet again but not as allies seeing as their determined to get their goals accomplished. With the Final arc in motion now, Eustass Kid has reached the island of Elbaf, Trafalgar D. Water Law is currently fighting toe-to-toe with Blackbeard (I hope he makes it out alive) and Luffy is currently on Egghead island finding Vegapunk and encountering Jewelry Bonney, another member of the Worst Generation!
But should the circumstances arrive that the three captains will eventually have to duke it out with each other, they will have to. But how will it turn out? We’ll have to find that out.
Categories for battle assessment
Here are the categories for the fight:
- Strength
- Speed
- Haki
- Power (destructive capabilities)
- Endurance
- IQ
- Battle IQ
- Devils fruit powers
- X factor
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of Strength?
Okay, when it comes to strength, all three of them have incredible prowess. Luffy with his Bajrang Gun, Law’s K-Room with Shock Wille and Kidd’s Damned Punk, they’re Multi-Continental Attacks at best!
I’d think they’d be tied on this one.
Law and Kidd are tied with Luffy in terms of Strength.
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of Speed?
Law and Kidd are pretty fast individuals with Law tagging Hybrid Kaido with his Injection Shot and striking him with it and Kidd’s Punk Corna Dio overwhelming an awakened Big Mom making the headlines!
Luffy would easily blitz the both of them with Gear 4 Snakeman considering this is his fastest form.
Luffy blitzes Law and Kidd in terms of Speed.
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of Haki?
Now, Law has great mastery over his use of Armament Haki as well as Observation Haki if you remember his fight against Vergo in Dressrosa Arc, which was really another emotional fight for me! Kidd has all three forms of Haki though we haven’t seen Kidd use Conqueror’s Haki at all. I’m excited to see how that would turn out in the adaptation though!
Luffy has mastery in all three forms of haki and would overwhelm the two supernovas easily.
Luffy overwhelms Law and Kidd in terms of Haki.
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of Power (Destructive Capabilities)?
When I look back at Wano, I see a lot of destruction taking place. Everywhere and in every single fight taking place. With Luffy against Kaido and Law/Kidd against Big Mom, it was a spectacle to see that almost reminded me of Marineford.
Should the three duke it out in a 2v1 match, in this case, Luffy vs Law/Kidd, they’d be tied in terms of Destructive Capabilities.
Luffy is tied with Law and Kidd in terms of Power (Destructive Capabilities).
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of Endurance?
Law can pretty much tank some of the toughest attacks his enemies have to offer with him taking hits from Hyrbid Form Armament-Coated Thunder Bagua and didn’t get injured from it. He can also withstand and clash against Blackbeard’s Quake Bubble as shown in the latest chapters!
The same can be said for Kidd, thanks to his muscular build, he took point-blank punches from Soul-infused Big Mom and still managed to stand! I got goosebumps from watching that.
Luffy can endure far greater damage than both of them combined seeing as he has fought Kaido, Big Mom and all the enemies he encountered.
I mean, Law fought them too after the timeskip but if you remember the segment where Kuma gives Luffy’s pain and tells Zoro to endure it so that his captain may survive back in the Saobody Archipelago arc, that goes to show that Luffy goes through a lot far more than anyone AND it was a tear-jerking memorable moment for me too.
Luffy beats Law and Kidd in terms of Endurance.
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of IQ?
Luffy and Kidd are two captains cut from the same cloth seeing as they’re simple men with no innate knowledge of assessing situations at all.
Law, however, is a genius in his own right and he was the one to propose an alliance with the Straw Hat Pirates to take down Kaido given that he is a very crafty and opportunistic leader.
But in a 2v1 battle, Law/Kidd would certainly have the upper hand against Luffy in terms of IQ, Kidd would prove to be a hindrance to Law though due to his stubbornness. (Which adds for a comical factor as well, heheh.)
Law and Kidd beats Luffy in terms of IQ.
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of Battle IQ?
In terms of Battle, however, Kidd and Luffy are equally gifted as Law in their own right, managing to outsmart and outperform their enemy in a given situation.
In this case, I’d say, they’d be in a draw. Probably because they’d always be in a competition as to who would punch each other harder. Make this happen, Oda.

Luffy is tied with Law and Kidd in terms of Battle IQ.
Can Luffy beat Law and Kidd in terms of Devil Fruit power?
Kidd and Law have the Jiki Jiki no Mi and the Ope Ope no Mi respectively with the latter being dubbed the “Ultimate Devil Fruit” due to its extraordinary abilities and immortality feats at the cost of the user. The downside is that they’re both Paramecia-type Devil Fruits.
Luffy’s Devil Fruit is the Mythical Zoan Fruit Hito Hito no Mi: Model Nika and Mythical Zoan Fruits are the rare types of Devil Fruits reigning superior to all.
Luffy would win over Law and Kidd’s Devil Fruit Power anytime.
X factor
This would be a tough match. All three of them are equally capable and formidable fighters.
But should the situation arise, Luffy would win albeit with much difficulty.
I can see this fight happening later in the final arc. My hunch does tell me so.
Luffy defeats Law and Kidd by a very low margin.
