what is shanks power

Shanks is a legendary and powerful pirate in the Grand Line, being the chief of the Red Haired Pirates and one of the Four Emperors residing at the second half of the Grand Line. He is considered one of the strongest pirates in the world. Shanks is a normal human, but he has extraordinary physical abilities and has shown that he can match the strength of Whitebeard. Shanks is a master of Haki and can use all three forms of it. His powers have been a mystery for the majority of the series, but it seems that is going to change. In One Piece chapter 1079, Shanks destroyed the Kid Pirates with his conquerors hockey infused Divine departure, which might have just ended the debate on him vs Mihawk. As noted by the Five Elders, Shanks is a pacifist by nature who does not actively seek to cause chaos and disorder.
