Bepo
The Navigator Of The Heart Pirates
Bepo is a polar bear Mink who hails from the Mokomo Dukemon that rests on the back of Zunesha. Despite being born on Zou, Bepo ended up in North Blue due to an unfortunate incident, where he eventually met Trafalgar Law. Not long afterward, Bepo joined the Heart Pirates and became the crew’s navigator.
It is safe to say that Bepo played a crucial role in helping the Heart Pirates reach the Grand Line. Without him, the Heart Pirates would have been stuck until they got a navigator. Aside from his skills as a navigator, Bepo also has a penchant for fighting. Since he is a Mink, he has access to the Sulong form. In this form, Bepo’s physical strength increases significantly, meaning he is able to fight opponents of high caliber.

In addition to being a fighter, Laffitte also serves as the navigator of the Blackbeard Pirates. He has helped the crew traverse the waters of the Grand Line without too many problems. One thing that separates Laffitte from the other navigators is the lack of a Log Pose, which is deemed essential to exploring the Grand Line.

Building Snake
The Navigator Of The Red Hair Pirates
Building Snake is among the top officers of the Red Hair Pirates. He has been with the crew for a long time, so it is safe to say that he’s one of Shanks’ most trusted men. Building Snake has a unique style of fighting that he calls Juggling Two Sword Style. This particular style involves him using acrobatic moves.
Building Snake is the navigator of the Red Hair Pirates, which means the crew relies on him whenever they are traveling. Considering Building Snake is a top officer of the Red Hair Pirates, he must be skilled at navigating. The waters of the New World are perilous, and without a talented navigator, the Red Hair Pirates would never make it this far.

Nami
The Navigator Of The Straw Hat Pirates
Nami is the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates. She was one of the earliest people who placed their faith in Luffy and joined his crew. From a young age, Nami showed promise in cartography, and her mother, Bell-mere noticed this, so she urged her to pursue this skill. Nami’s boon soon became a curse for her as Arlong forcibly turned her to draw maps of different areas. Thankfully, Luffy rescued her from the clutches of the villain.
Ever since Nami joined the Straw Hat Pirates, she has helped the crew go from one place to another. She is able to discern weather patterns, which help her avoid storms. Nami is also skilled at predicting the weather, and she has done it on more than one occasion. Based on her feats, Nami is by far the best navigator in One Piece.
