Who Will Replace Admiral Kizaru? | Promotion? New Character? Vacancy?
Thank you for reading this article about the potential successor to Admiral Kizaru in the ONE PIECE series, particularly following the events of Chapter 1124.
I’m your host, Jack Ocean.
In this article, I will explore the possible candidates for the position, assuming that Admiral Kizaru might retire:

Who Will Replace Admiral Kizaru? | Promotion Candidates?
In ONE PIECE Chapter 1121, we saw that Admiral Kizaru, after being forced to kill his close friend Vegapunk as part of his mission, has reached his psychological limit, making it difficult for him to continue as an Admiral.
However, the Navy has traditionally operated with three Admirals, and when Sakazuki was promoted and Kuzan left the Navy, two incredibly powerful individuals, Fujitora and Ryokugyu, were recruited through the World Military Draft to fill the vacancies.
If Admiral Kizaru does retire, it’s possible that the Navy might promote someone from within its current ranks.
The first candidates that come to mind are Smoker and Coby. However, even though Smoker may have grown stronger since his defeat at the hands of Law, he still seems a bit lacking. Coby also struggled against Yonko Blackbeard, so it’s hard to imagine either of them adequately filling Kizaru’s shoes.
The final promotion candidate I’d like to consider is Tensei, the director of the Navy’s Criminal Investigation Bureau, also known as Black Horse.
Though we haven’t seen Tensei in combat, making his true strength unknown, his high-ranking position and the fact that he carries the epithet “Black” suggest he might have monstrous abilities, making him a strong candidate for promotion.
Or perhaps…
Could it be that a completely new character will step in as Kizaru’s successor?
