Admiral (大将 Taishō?) is a title of a signified senior command rank in the Marines.

An Admiral is senior to a Vice Admiraland junior to the Fleet Admiral.

Edit
In the series, Admirals are shown as being the second highest rank in the Marines behind the Fleet Admiral. There are only three Marines with the title of Admiral. The three current ones are known by their aliases: "Aokiji" (Blue Pheasant), "Akainu" (Red Dog), and "Kizaru" (Yellow Monkey). They are also possibly, besides the Yonkou, the three most powerful characters in the world of One Piece.[1]
AbilitiesEdit
The Admirals are crowned the World Government's "Greatest Military Powers" (最高戦力 Saikō Senryoku?), and are the strongest individual fighters within the World Government and the Marines.[1] These three Admirals are respected and feared amongst the entire world.
As seen in Sabaody Archipelago, the mere presence of just a single Admiral was enough to cause a panic on the island and make the entire population flee from the island, including the Eleven Supernovas. Another example of the Admiral's reputation is Nico Robin from the Straw Hat Pirates, related to her childhood trauma, she constantly loses her grip and starts panicking whenever an Admiral is around, this being significant as she rarely panics even in most of the dangerous situations.
All three of the current Admirals are very high-level users of Haki, shown when using Busōshoku Haki together to block Whitebeard'spowerful shock wave. All three of them are also able to survive a strike imbued with Haki, despite it nullifying their intangibility, though Aokiji did bleed from the mouth after a sneak attack by Jozu, imbued with Haki, though made no injuries. And Akainu noted the discomfort the strikes made.
The difference in physical prowess between Admirals and Vice Admirals also seems to be dramatically high, as one of Whitebeard's quake-imbued punches was enough to incapacitate a Vice Admiral Giant, yet Akainu took two (which were also imbued with Haki, further increasing damage) and still had more than enough to keep fighting. Also, while Whitebeard was able to overpower the strength of a Giant with ease, Kizaru and Akainu both managed to hold down his polearm with only one stomp.
Added by However, what makes the three Admirals quite formidable is that they all have Logia-type Devil Fruit powers, each representing their respective color. All of their powers are very destructive, even when comparing to an average Logia user. They are all strong enough to combat against Whitebeard alone, with Kizaru and Akainu causing him severe harm (albeit that Jozu interfered in Aokiji's fight), as well as to fight on par with the top three Whitebeard Pirates commander each, and eventually overpowering the said commanders with relative ease, with Akainu even killing one (although Kizaru and Aokiji's opponents were distracted and Akainu's magma has a natural superiority to Ace'sfire). Admiral Aokiji and Kizaru are seen to be proficient swordsmen when creating blades from their own element and wielding them. It is unknown if Akainu also shares this ability, though, as he has only been seen using molten fists for close combat. However, Akainu and Kizaru too, are proficient hand to hand fighters.
DutiesEdit
Aside from having control over the thousands of soldiers who rank underneath them, the Admirals are the only Marines, along with the Fleet Admiral, within the World Government who have the authority and ability to issue a Buster Call.[2] They are also the only ones who can grant World Government agents the permission to use the Buster Call. The Admirals' only superior, aside from the Fleet Admiral, are the Gorousei and the World Government Commander-in-Chief.
Should a World Noble be opposed or injured, an Admiral will be summoned to take down the assailants who did the damage.[3] Failure is not acceptable.[4]

TriviaEdit
- All three Admirals are based upon Japanese actors and are drawn to resemble them, and their birthdays are the same as the said actors.
- The appearance of the three Admirals also resembles a stereotypical look of the different life-styles a man can have: Aokiji being the single/young party man, Kizaru being the family guy and Akainu being the business/busy man.
- Their aliases are taken from Momotarō legends, they are a pheasant, a dog and a monkey assisted the boy hero, Momotarō, on his adventures. Coincidentally, each personality fits the aliases (Aokiji, the pheasant, is somewhat lazy; Kizaru, the monkey, is quite absent-minded and irresponsible; and Akainu, the dog, is very loyal).
- Each of their Logia-class Devil Fruits correspond to specific features of land (molten rock), sea (frozen water), and sky (sunlight). They each also wear different suits that correspond to their Devil Fruit color. Coincidently, their color-schemes (yellow, blue, and red) are the three primary colors. The color of the cuffs on their coats also correspond to their respective colors.
- They all possess some kind of accessory on their heads in which they often bring down to cover their eyes: Aokiji wears a sleep mask, Kizaru has orange sunglasses, and Akainu uses a Marines cap.
- The three of them have black-colored hair and are of the same height. However, in Gigant Battle, it seems that Aokiji is the tallest, then Kizaru, with Akainu being the shortest.
- Former Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp has, on more than one occasion, turned down the promotion to become Admiral. He has stated that he doesn't need a higher position to do what he wants.[5] While being officially ranked as a Vice Admiral, his power was once or still is enough to qualify him for the rank of Admiral or even Fleet Admiral before he retired.
